I don’t currently have any pets at home, so there’s no need to worry about compatibility with other animals. I’m right next to a park, and my condo complex has a fenced dog area for play and potty breaks. Working remotely means your pet always gets quick attention and care.

Information Tyler K. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs, routines, or behaviors that I should plan around. I’m comfortable with all breeds, but I like to know their energy level, feeding schedule, and any training cues you use so I can keep things consistent.

A typical day

I like to keep dogs engaged both physically and mentally — we’ll play games, take walks around the neighborhood, and visit the nearby park for some new smells and fresh air. Indoors, I make sure they have a comfortable spot to rest and plenty of companionship.

Tyler K.'s Neighborhood

Animal lover, outdoor enthusiast

Pet care experience

About Me I’ve cared for just about every kind of animal you can imagine, including years of fostering dogs and cats. I recently lost my own dog, so I’m genuinely happy to open my home (and heart) to yours. I work from home full-time, which means your pet gets constant attention, outdoor time, and a calm, reliable routine throughout the day. Why Clients Love Me I treat every pet like family — tuned in to their routines, quirks, and comfort. Whether it’s a jog around the block, quiet downtime, or play breaks between meetings, I make sure each animal feels safe and cared for. Clear communication, photo updates, and dependable follow-through are just part of how I work.

Tyler took good care of our dog Valka! It was a last minute request and he was very flexible! Good communication as well!

Tyler was communicative and took good care of Clover/sent photos along the way.

Unfortunately, our experience with boarding our dog with Tyler did not work out for us. The initial meet and greet 2.5 months prior went great, and Tyler was friendly. We confirmed the drop-off time and the booking, and went our separate ways. About a week out from the scheduled boarding, I reached out to confirm with Tyler about the drop off time, which he confirmed. I then confirmed a third time with him one day prior that I would drop off our dog around 7-7:30 am. The morning of our scheduled boarding, I texted my ETA to Tyler. When I get to his place, I called him 14 times via phone, which all went straight to voicemail. I texted multiple times and waited outside his place for about 30 minutes. I even asked a neighbor to let me into the apartment complex, went to the apartment unit, and knocked on the door multiple times - still no response. Unfortunately, I ended up returning home with my dog with only 30 minutes left before we needed to head out to the airport. My wife and I scrambled to ask neighbors and friends to help with drop-in visits for the duration of our vacation. While we were at the airport and boarding at 10:30 am, I get a text from Tyler asking if we were coming over. We then communicated via phone and text; and somehow, he did not get any of our calls or texts. All in all, the agreed upon time to drop off our dog was somehow lost in the translation, which devolved into some big misunderstanding/ miscommunication. For us, this was a really stressful experience given we had a flight to catch and unexpectedly had to shift our dog sitting plans from Tyler watching our dog for 6 days to our neighbors/friends. Rover did refund us, Tyler apologized, and our dog was eventually taken care of while we were out of town. With that said, we will unlikely request Tyler to board our dog again in the future.

Tyler did an amazing job taking care of Luna and Cognac while we were away. He kept us updated with the sweetest messages and photos, which really gave us peace of mind. It was clear our pups were having a great time—he kept them active and happy, even taking Luna out on runs! We came home to two very well-cared-for and content dogs. Highly recommend Tyler to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter
