Walker really is the guy you want responsible for your precious things in life. Two years ago, I asked him to manage my research program in the Maldives and I must say that he ran the show much better than I could, and I was the project leader. In the end, I wound up learning a lot from his attention to detail, empathy, cleanliness, and high standards. I know this sounds like a commercial trying to sell you something, but I am not being verbose or exaggerative here...he's really a great guy and you can be confident that your pets will be in good hands.
