Reliable, joyful dog care for all!
Pet care experience
Grown up with dogs in the house at all times. I have always been a huge dog lover of all sizes and personalities. My family currently has three dogs that can all be a handful (especially since two don't get along). So I have experience training them as well as things such as micro-aggressions and guarding behavior. I am also accustomed to dogs with a lot of energy. One of our dogs is a border collie/Aussie mix, so exercising dogs is not a foreign activity. I hope that this experience can give you a confident impression on my ability to watch over your best pals while away.

Safety, trust & environment
Drop-ins would include a lot of attention to your pet, checking on that they have everything they need, get a chance to play and pamper for the time that I am there.
Information Tyler J. would like to know about your pet
It is good to know about specific behaviors to be aware of with people and other dogs. If there are any habits to be aware of and then be able to avoid such as trash rooting, shoe stealing, or other dog things! I love all dogs and am willing to work with pretty much any and all breeds and personalities but it is always good to be prepared to best suit myself and your pet.
A typical day
Walks would be for and about the dog, letting them choose the pace and sniff whatever calls to them. If walking on a leash isn't their strong suit, we could work on different leash drills that help with issues such as pulling. While at home, there would be plenty of pets and affection, along with on the ground dog play time! Tug of war, fetch, and some brain teasers with treats! Hide and seek has become a favorite with me and my own dog. But really it would depend on what the dog likes. And if that is more lounging then thats what we'll do!
