The Friendly Dog Guy

Pet care experience

I was born and raised on the North Side of Chicago with a hefty family. We started a Husky pack with the old noble Wasatch (named after a Mountain Range in Utah). Best way to learn about every kind of dog behavior is to be exposed to them! I started my own little dog walking empire in my neighborhood when I was 13 which lasted a good 3 or 4 years. Chicago is filled with ENDLESS amounts of dog beaches and parks. Then, eventually became a Wag! walker for 1 year. I went to Lane Tech College Prep in Chicago and played varsity baseball and golf. Currently, I'm a Sophomore at the University of Iowa studying Business. Hopefully, I hope to open my own restaurant one day on the West Coast. I work part-time at the Airliner in the kitchen and barbacking. Love physical exercise and being outdoors. I prefer big dogs, but love all of them the same!

It's a pleasure to write a dog caregiving testimonial for Thomas! His love for animals is moving. He's patient, kind, and playful. When Charlie sees Thomas, he is SO happy! The tail is wagging, he smiles, and despite his advanced years, he becomes a puppy again. So sweet. I trust Thomas completely in my home. He's responsible and caring, and never rushes a walk. Your dog will love you for finding such a loving caregiver!
