Your Dog Is My Passion

Pet care experience

Imagine the ease of mind you’ll feel knowing you have a trustworthy person taking care of your loved dog during the day. The clients I’ve had let me know how the reassurance they get from getting trustworthy dog care helps give them one less thing to worry about. Gaining a dog who’s moods are lifted from my care brings great value to you when you interact with them afterwards. From the time of a young child, feeling the excitement of a furry friend who depends on us helped me realize I had a special bond with dogs. Then when I grew older, that cute pup I raised grew older. From helping her stand up to eat, to giving her medicine everyday, I did everything I could to help her last days enjoyable. At the end I had to say goodbye the final time. After the tears were wiped from my face, I knew I would want to work with dogs. I am reliable, trustworthy and any instructions you have will be followed with care. I am able to do walks throughout each week and my schedule is flexible for now. I’ve walked dogs for clients and it brings me joy that I’ve acquired skills to help give the dog the best experience which later translated to a happy owner. Whether it’s reading basic body language, feeding, brushing, walking properly to just making the client feel rest assured that their dog has an empathic but skilled walker who helps their dogs have a good experience. I have experience with dogs of all age ranges. I try my best and am always learning. No matter what, I’ll always work my hardest and best for whoever hires me. I’m able to provide handling and proper care for dogs, sanitize and maintain dogs living space, daily feeding, watering, and administration of medication if needed. I’m able to implement daily exercise and play to promote physical and mental well being. I ensure safety for the dog prioritized. If you’d like a quality service from someone who is passionate then I might be the person you’re looking for.

Sean took great care of my dogs when we were away. He is highly dependable and extremely responsive. I look forward to using his services again.

Sean takes great care of our four year old black lab Zoey. Reliable, caring, respectful, and attention to detail is what you can count on

Sean has cared for my pet on many occasions and has always been responsible, and respectful of our pet and home. My dog is elderly and blind and as such needs extra TLC, which makes it difficult to find pet caregivers we can trust. Sean is patient, kind and caring and we feel comfortable leaving our dog in his care.

I have used Sean many times over the years as both a dog walker and a dog sitter. He has been very professional and responsible at all times and I know that my dog will be well taken care of when Sean is in charge. It is clear that he loves dogs. I am happy to have found someone that I can trust to always do the right thing and to go above and beyond to make sure that my dog is happy and that all of her needs (and my needs) are being met.

I have an unfenced yard but I have a large yard for walking and bathroom use. I am able to crate dogs if you ask for it.

Information Sean D. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to know if you’re dog has special needs or behaviors that I can be made aware of. I’d also like to be made aware if the dogs has experience being walked or if your dog has any anxiety so that I can plan accordingly. Also if your dog is a puppy or adult is useful information. My preference is for dogs who are medium sized such as Labrador retrievers because that’s what I’m most used to however I can handle all breeds and sizes.

A typical day

I like to engage your dogs physically and allow them to trust me by slowly bonding with their personalities. It’s important to treat any dog with patience and I know dogs feed off our vibes so I would be able to learn what a dog needs based on that. We will play games, check out the neighborhood, I’ll allow your dog to be able to have a little adventure by seeing fun sights and activate different smells and I will go to local parks unless you specify not to.
