Information Tyler K. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog is averse to any people or other dogs, if they have special bathroom needs, or specific feeding routines that they prefer.

A typical day

I love giving dogs both physical and mental exercises catered to your dog. There are parks near my apartment I’d love to take them to, but I am also happy to travel to parks that your dog is more comfortable with. I’m flexible and willing to meet your dog where they’re at.

Pet care experience

I have experience working in kennels at a veterinary hospital with their boarding dogs. Through this I gained experience medicating dogs as well as feeding and walking dogs from a variety of breeds. I have experience with aggressive and fearful dogs, big dogs, small dogs, and everything in between. I have five years of professional animal care experience but have had dogs my entire life.

Tyler was great. We could tell right away the care and consideration that was taken into watching our dog. Very communicative even double checking on things when somethings happened beyond our control. We really appreciated it and will def be our #1

Tyler did a great job with drop-in visits for our dog and our cat! Both pets became comfortable with him quickly, and he did a great job following the care instructions and respecting our home. We plan to book again!
