Animal lover - Dad of 10 fur babies

Pet care experience

Hello, i’m Tyler! I grew up with animals my whole life from dogs and cats to reptiles, rodents, exotic animals.. you name it! My dad loves animals so i grew up in an unique household. Though i had no farm animals lots of my friends and family growing up said “you basically have your own farm inside your house”. With this experience I know how to take care of all sorts of animals. I have a whole lifetime of taking care of pets. I also have 7 years of grooming experience which started with my dog who’s a samoyed.. and if you know anything about samoyeds.. LOTS. OF. FUR. I also have experience training dogs as i’ve trained my dog to be a service dog and I have a puppy who we are training currently. I absolutely love animals and would love to provide your pet with proper care and help you feel at ease that your pet is safe :). I offer Boarding, Day care, drop ins, house sitting and even grooming! I appreciate you checking out my profile and i hope we can get in contact soon!

I highly recommend Tyler for pet sitting and care services. Tyler has taken care of my cats on multiple occasions, and each time I come back, my pets are content and well looked after. He goes the extra mile to ensure their welfare and happiness. Tyler not only assisted with Bronco, my dog, but also formed a bond with Mouse, my more reserved cat, who usually doesn't warm up to strangers. His compassion and patience are evident in his interactions with animals. One particular instance that demonstrated Tyler's commitment and empathy was when we took in Lady Bug, a kitten with a broken leg. Tyler provided constant care, support, and affection for the little one, resulting in Lady Bug recovering successfully and becoming a cherished part of our family. Tyler's passion for animals shines through in his work, and I trust that my pets are in capable and compassionate hands under his care. Tyler has always had a strong connection with Bronco, and his genuine concern for all our pets is truly admirable. Furthermore, Tyler's expertise with reptiles and ferrets highlights his versatility and understanding in caring for a variety of animals. His dedication and love for all creatures, regardless of size, make him an exceptional pet sitter.

Tyler is the most amazing person I have ever met with animals. He is extremely patient and loving. He has spent his life caring for animals. He has wanted to work with them from a very young age.

Tyler is wonderful with animals. he loves animals more than people. He has anxiety but that makes him more drawn to animals. Because of constantly being around animals he’s learned to open up more and had become such an amazing person.

Tyler is great with animals. He is my boyfriend and we have 2 dogs and a cat together. He takes the dogs on walks everyday even. He is tired. He take them to the dog park as well at least 3 times a week and just loves animals. He is a great fur parent

About my living situation: I currently live in an duplex with a gated patio area that is pretty decent size, we have 2 dogs who go out regularly and we also like to sit outside with them when the weather permits. We have our dogs downstairs with a gate from the rest of the place when we are not home and our cats free roam. At night we bring the dogs to bed with us and any pets we have boarded get to cuddle up with us as well.

Information Tyler T. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has special needs or behavioral issues as i want to make sure your dog is well taken care of in my hands. I’d also like to know if your dog is neutered or spayed, if there’s situations that make your dog uncomfortable and if they are good with other animals such as cats and dogs.

A typical day

I’d love to give your pup a great out of home experience and since I know they’ll be missing you, i’ll keep them very busy. Since I have 2 dogs; your pup will definitely have a great time and get tuckered out pretty fast. Along with this I’ll make sure to explore the neighborhood of all the new smells so your dog get physical exercise as well !

About my schedule: I am currently graduating with my Associates in arts and science from DMACC to then transfer to ISU in the fall. I do not have classes as of now through September. I work Thursdays-Mondays at the Boone Area Humane Society as a Animal Control Officer working 9-6 and off Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Around my work schedule I am pretty open now that I am done with classes and am able to devote more time to sitting, walking, boarding and so on!
