BFF to your Best Furry Friend!!

Pet care experience

I've been taking care pets for friends, neighbors, roommates' partners, and more for the better part of my life. Due to family allergies, I never had pets of my own. Beyond this, I've been part of the Canine Companions for Independence community since 2016 and loved working and training puppies and dogs under the age of 1. I am a new graduate and recently certified Physician Assistant with a lot of free time. I'd love to fill that time with 4-legged companions! Currently, I am home a majority of the time, so your pet will not be alone! I have a small front and side yard but also live very close to a dog park to provide exercise and outdoor engagement, not to mention being in a very walkable environment where streets are not too busy. I am comfortable crating pets if needed as well as giving them time to roam freely. I also have a dog-obsessed roommate that will provide unlimited unconditional attention and love for each pet.

Vishal was great at taking care of our dog Nawab. Initially Nawab was a bit anxious once we dropped him off, but Vishal was patient with him until he calmed down. We'd gladly leave Nawab with Vishal again.

Vishal was very responsive and communicative. Sonny had a great time with him and got plenty of exercise. Highly recommend Vishal as his adoration of dogs, especially Sonny, is evident!

Information Vishal R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog needs any special needs care, has any separation anxiety, typically shows resource guarding, or is known for chewing on a stray shoe. New tricks are my favorite, so if you've been working with your dog on something in particular, let me know, and I'll gladly spend some time in a 1-on-1 setting to help!

A typical day

To stimulate your dog, I enjoy playing games, going for walks around the neighborhood or to the dog park, and maybe checking out some trails if it’s in the cards. Of course with stimulation, your dog will be able lounge around and get some down time in with naps and snacks.
