I’ve never met a dog I didn’t like

Pet care experience

I’ve spent my adult life serving people but I’ve always enjoyed working with animals. Have taken care of the family dogs since I was 10 and have helped with watching my family, friends, and neighbors animals ever since.

Our 60-lb shepherd/collie mix, Shasta, had a terrific time hanging with Sam, his girlfriend, and their dogs Nala and Luna. Shasta sometimes get a bit anxious when she's away from her humans, but Nala and Luna helped her feel right at home, and Sam kept her happy and busy. Thanks for taking great care of our girl!

Safety, trust & environment

Typical day starts with a long walk around the neighborhood with intermittent breaks in the gated back yard. Dogs stay close to me so I keep a close watch. Lots of treat training and positive reinforcement. I respect the rules of any owners house and how they would like their pet taken care of.

Information Sam C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or aversions. Explaining dietary needs and known stressors is very helpful. I can always make special plans for special dogs.

A typical day

Your dog can expect to chase hella balls in the park, climb most of the local hills, and run through many a dog park (Point Isabel and Alameda’s Crab cove are favorites).

I currently work part time in the evening so my schedule allows for lots of day time pet care. I usually take my girlfriend’s two adventure pups to Point Isabel, walk around lake Merritt, hike up in the hills or stroll through town.
