Care for your dogs while your away

I grew up on a farm we raised dogs, My Grandfather trained police k9s. My childhood chore. The dogs I have helped build have started as my favorites a,puller, no manners, and may not be confident around other dogs. Some have become Service Dogs, some are the family dog. They all have smiles, show excitement, and have impressed me. I hope you consider a walker option. Housebreaking, obedience, and professional guidance. I use silent commands and sit, stay, leave it happens rather quickly. So lets build you a better dog and help them live a longer happy life. Positive Reinforcement is essential to happy and smarter dogs. I do not do overnight stays with out my dog she is a service dog and was picked to help packs learn socialization. Thats the beauty of a husky the work well with other dogs.

Thomas was incredible with our 2 dogs. He conducted a meet/greet prior to our departure. Both dogs immediately loved him. He is an actual trainer, which also greatly benefited us. I could not believe how much our dogs learned in just 5 days. Thomas was amazing with communication and check-ins. He went above and beyond with brushing the undercoat of our shepherd and even taking out trash when he noted that neighbors had their cans out [not at all expected]. It was so nice to return to a clean home and happy/well cared for and happy dogs! I absolutely would 1000 % recommend his services!

Thomas has done a great job of calming Jackson in situations where other dogs are around.

My dog loves him, which is a must for me, and Thomas has been very willing to work with me to give her outings without overworking her while she's recovering from surgery. I especially appreciated his willingness to come on short notice.

Schedule

This is my career choice I am 56 yrs old. Pet care is my normal routine. It flows naturally in me the results are so amazing seems each dog is learning better on each walk. If in home long term care is needed I will bring my own dog for security and health purposes. She is a Service Dog by the way.🙈

Safety, trust & environment

Summer walks done right. I use a laser thermometer to check pavement temps, map the coolest shaded routes, and prioritize your dog’s safety every step of the way. I recommend protective shoes and offer training so your dog can wear them comfortably. I also use a mobile cooling unit to respond immediately to any signs of heat stress. Calm leadership, clear communication, and safety—every walk.

Pets

A typical day

My day revolves around structured walks, calm leadership, and focused training sessions. I start with exercise and pack walks, followed by behavioral conditioning using silent commands and gestures. Each session is recorded in daily video logs so owners can see real progress while their dogs build confidence, discipline, and trust. 🐕‍🦺

Please share your dog’s behavior, energy level, leash manners, and any triggers or medical needs. In Arizona heat, let me know their heat tolerance and paw sensitivity. I recommend shoes and can help train them. The more I know, the better I can keep your dog safe and comfortable!
