I work a hybrid schedule (in-office Tuesday–Thursday), which gives me plenty of flexibility on work-from-home days for walks, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. Your pet won’t be left wondering where their sitter went.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in an apartment complex with access to walking trails, an on-site dog park, and plenty of enrichment at home. Between outdoor activity and structured play, dogs get both exercise and mental stimulation. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet behind. I always recommend a meet and greet so we can make sure it’s a great fit. Once booked, you’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in good hands.

Information Tyler S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know anything worth sharing about your beloved friend(s), including their daily routine, feeding schedule, potty habits, and any quirks or preferences they may have. If there’s anything that helps them feel more comfortable or safe, I’d love to know. I do my best to follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible. Written instructions and care details are always appreciated and help make the experience smoother and happier for everyone involved.

A typical day

My apartment complex is very dog-friendly, with plenty of walking paths and new areas to sniff and explore throughout the day. Walks are tailored to each dog’s energy level and comfort, whether that means a longer stroll or a more relaxed outing. There’s also a fully fenced dog park where dogs can safely run, play, and burn off energy under supervision. My dog Oakley enjoys meeting new friends, and any playtime is always based on compatibility and comfort. Throughout the day, I make sure each dog gets attention, enrichment, and downtime as needed — not just exercise, but space to relax and feel at home.

Where dogs become dawgs

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Tyler. I’ve been around dogs my entire life - starting with my family’s beagle, Rascal, when I was five. Since then, dogs of all breeds have always been part of my life, and I’m currently a proud co-owner of a lab mix named Oakley. I believe every dog is different and deserves patient, attentive care tailored to their personality. My goal is always to earn their trust and make them feel comfortable and safe while you’re away.

Tyler always takes wonderful care of Doc. He has all the puppy energy and they handle it well. They send several pics a day with an update on how he is doing. I highly recommend!

Tyler has been wonderful! I needed a dog sitter last minute and he really showed up for me. The first day had some scheduling issues and mix-ups (100% mistake on my part) and he was flexible and worked with me. He’s been great at communicating and send multiple photos. I highly recommend Tyler.

Tyler and Ashley were great. They took good care of Zetta, and they were responsive to her needs.

Tyler did a fantastic job watching after my hyper 5 month old Dobie. I highly recommend. Thank you so much!
