Availability

I currently have some free time, so I'm available most times pretty quickly. I do some work online, but take my dog for a walk twice a day. Depending on the type and size of dog I would consider watching them at my house. My boxer is getting older and losing his eyesight so I have to be cautious of his health at times. I can be available between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. 7 days a week

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard. There's a doggy door from the house to the fenced backyard that they can come and go to potty or just play. My boxer loves doggy friends and sharing his treats. I'm an animal lover and I give them plenty of attention because it also brings me joy. I enjoy dogs and will walk them or play with them as desired. I'm also available to just stop by and let them out to use the bathroom. I know these are our pet's homes and I love and care for them because I would want someone to give my dog that loving and respect!

Information Tyler K. would like to know about your pet

I would prefer an animal under 60 pounds. I need to know how they get along with other animals (most likely dogs), if they're good on walks, if they have any health issues or need medication. Also, if they "mount" (Apollo has arthritis in his back legs so I really have to watch that). I would appreciate any other information I would need to know.

A typical day

I love taking dogs for walks, around the neighborhood or if there's a park close enough. I'll play fetch with them, play tug of war, throw a frisbee, whatever they like. If they like doing commands or tricks and getting a treat for a reward, that makes me smile too

Pets

I love all animals in general!

Pet care experience

I'm a softy for animals in general, especially dogs! I have a 9.5 yr old boxer that is getting old but gets along with any dog. I have dogsat my buddies 2 boxers multiple times, up to 6 weeks at a time. 3 boxers is a handful. Apollo is my 3rd dog and I have watched other friends dogs many times also. I have also looked after cats and birds on occasion. I'm not a trainer but I've trained my own dogs.

Tyler has been great with our dog! This was our second time using Tyler and our dog was so excited to see him again. Tyler was willing to work with us when our travel plans got messed up. We are so grateful for his patience.

Tyler was an excellent dog sitter, he took care of our elderly dog like he was his own! Very responsive and sent us photos throughout the stay. Thank you Tyler!

Tyler was very patient with both us and our dog. Arrow was sad to leave. His dog, Apollo, is awesome!
