A typical day

I think phi si ally and mental stimulation are both important and complements each other, smelling and sniffing games are good form of stimulation and they waste tons of energy searching for prizes, also walks while the dog follows the walking speed and then letting them lead while smelling places and objects, stimulation with people, dogs, animals in general, sounds and noises

Pet care experience

I trained a fila brasilero to be a search and rescue dog, I love him, his name is Delmo. he is a super good dog that received good training with lots of love as I had to study to train him. I’ve always loved dogs and animals in general, I got my first dog when I was 8 as a gift, he was a medium schnauzer called homer, I helped my family with the basics and when I was 16 I started to take full care of him and played and trained him even more too. Also I’ve started to take care and go for walks with friends dogs or people that would ask for a walker and got some recommendations. I rely that sniffing for dogs is one of the most important activities for dogs, they see the world through their noses, it’s an activity they really enjoy and get them tired. Always caring of them with love and respect.

Valentin is fantastic! He came by for a meet and greet first, and my pups ran to the door and greeted him like they knew him forever! He has great communication, prompt responses, and has been very flexible and accommodating when I had to make last minute changes to the schedule. We will absolutely be using Valentin again! Thank you!

Valentin was great with our pack. House was in great shape as well. I’ll use him again for certain.

I arrived home to poop scooped, dogs groomed, trash taken out, dishes clean, bathrooms clean, bed stripped and a dozen other things I've forgotten. Most of all, my dogs were only reasonably glad to see me so I know they haven't been stressed in the least. This guy needs a mask and cape as SuperDogMan!
