Pet care experience
Lifelong lover of Dogs & Cats
I have had a dog in my life since I was a baby. I enjoy being around animals, walking, and playing with them. I am a HUGE Dog lover (cats too, but dogs are my passion)! I have a special way with them and love being around them. My last two dogs (Black Lab and a Dane mix) each lived to be 17 and 16 respectively and were my pride and joy. One of them was a ferocious handful, and after extensive work with the world-famous "Dog Whisperer", I managed to turn her into the "little Buddha" I always knew she was. That's why I LOVE walking dogs for folks who don't have the time every day. I can help you, and I get to spend some quality time giving TLC to your much deserved 4-legged. Currently in DTLA. In addition to walks, I also do dinner time, in-home check-ins and play time, special needs for older pets, and overnights. I work with every type of dog from large imposing shepherds and pitbulls (love Pibbles!) to small "scaredy-dogs" like Chihuahua's. Contact me for rates and details. I'm also an amateur photographer and love taking pictures of pets - so you should expect some rock-star shots (see profile photos) of your pets during my visits!

Tad is the best! Such a kind person, and he went above and beyond taking care of my dog while I was out of town, which is especially impressive and appreciated because my dog is reactive and not the easiest dog to handle! AND it was ninety degrees outside! So yes Tad rules!! ❤️
Tad is amazing! So kind, sweet, caring, and helpful! Thank you so much Tad!! 🥰
Tad was amazing! My dog was revolting against waling and Tad was able to get him to walk for almost a mile. I would highly recommend him !

Tad was amazing and really came through last min for me in an emergency! My dog immediately loved him. He is a strong and somewhat difficult dog to deal with and Tad was so kind about it ❤️

Schedule
I primarily work from home. I have a few weekly walks in other neighborhoods besides DTLA, but can usually be flexible with just about any time of day for a walk etc.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets as if they are my own - but by the OWNER'S standards and rules. I am extremely detailed when it comes to any doors always being closed fully and locked. And I recently had to run a dog to the vet while it's parents were at work.
A typical day
Play fetch. I love a brisk walk with big dogs - they usually need it as much as i do. Go to the dog park. Massage / T-Touch. Just good Old-Fashioned affectionate pets. IF there's a non-dog park green space outside, I'll walk them there so that they can relax under a tree on the grass and play (on leash of course).
