Services

Tyler can care for

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs

Availability

I have a relatively wide open schedule. I am a professional mixed martial artist and trainer so my hours vary from week to week. But I am very rarely tied up for more than 2-3 hours at a time, this allows my schedule to be super flexible to fit your needs. I also have no quarrels about overnight stays.

I will come to your home and care for your pets! Whatever is needed to the most minute detail I will cover. Rather it be medications, specific feed or walk times, etc. I have you covered! I am available for overnight stays as well if needed. I want to make sure you know your pet is in good hands while you are away.

Information Tyler J. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if you dog has any special needs or care requirements. Whatever is needed I will make sure to plan for ahead of time!

A typical day

I love to take dogs on long walks get as much activity as we can in. Rather this means some fetch in a park, some light jogging, etc. I want to make sure your dog looks forward to our walks.

Pet care experience

Hi there! I have been around cats and dogs virtually my entire life. I have loved every animal I have ever gotten the opportunity to care for. I have had the pleasure to care senior dogs, puppies, and dogs with disabilities like epilepsy so I know that every dog (or cat) is different and requires unique care. No two pets are the same.

Tyler is consistent, communicative, and our dogs absolutely love him! We’re grateful to have his help to walk them while we’re at work.

Thank you so much Tyler, we really appreciate you for taking care of our dog, Rolo, while we were on our week long vacation. We wouldn’t be happier with our service.

Tyler was awesome! I was very concerned about leaving my two girls but they were very well taken care of. We definitely hope to have Tyler take care of them in the future when we are away. Thank you Tyler! You are the best!

Tyler helped me out for several weeks following a surgery where I was unable to walk my dog Loki. Loki is a rescue and often reactive to other dogs on walks, but Tyler handled him well and Loki always looked forward to his visits! Tyler was also able to come early in the morning which was key for me. I will not hesitate to use him again!
