Pet care experience

I specialize in individualized dog hikes and walks as well as dog boarding in my home I go by the name Enzo. I have 7 years of pet care experience including experience with dog training and caring for elderly, high energy, and anxious dogs. I specialize in individualized dog hikes and walks. I also provide dog boarding in my home and never take more than 2 dogs to offer a nice and calm home environment (with a yard for play and daily walks or hikes) My walk services are perfect for dogs who may not be a good fit for pack adventures but still enjoy being on trails or doing long city walks. If your dog is still learning to be off leash, like being on trails but doesn’t do good off leash, or do best with 1:1 attention they’ll be the perfect match for my services. I have a truck and can pick up your pup and drive to a nearby trail or we can walk from your place. I can also take your pup on a run with me. I hold a graduate degree in psychology and have spent time studying dog training and pet behavior and body language and will be happy to apply my skills to your pup and am alway happy to continue reinforcing specific behaviors you are working on with your pup or work with them on training for off leash adventures (training is an extra $30/h) I have experience with small dogs that require a calm and cuddly environment, older dogs, anxious dogs and dogs needing some additional time to warm up to new humans. In my home I have a ramp access to my back yard for older dogs who can’t use stairs. I currently have a border collie that’s 5 years old so I’m also used to caring for higher energy dogs who need a little more activity and brain stimulation I now wfh doing counseling Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons - if you are requesting a boarding that will include those days I can only take dogs with low bark drive

Enzo is a gem! I appreciated their flexibility to arrange a meet and greet since my dog is selective about the dogs she likes. One thing that struck me on Enzo's profile was that they understand the importance of mental enrichment and positive reinforcement for dogs; Enzo's pup Arlo seems super smart and engaged and I'm excited for Naya to be cared for by someone so invested in dog behavior and science. Naya's first walk with Enzo and Arlo reassured me that Enzo would be an excellent, attentive caregiver for Naya. I look forward to working with Enzo more!

Enzo and Abby seemed to get along well and she came back happy. :) Enzo was flexible with drop off and pick up and kept us up to speed along the way. We’d be happy to have our pup stay with Enzo again. Thanks Enzo!
