Pet care experience
Trusted Pet Care from a Physician
Hi! I’m Walter, a lifelong animal lover who grew up with dogs of all sizes, including toy poodles and schnauzers. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one feel comfortable, happy, and safe. Friends and family describe me as calm, dependable, and attentive. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I have experience teaching dogs basic commands and enjoy reinforcing positive behaviors through patience and consistency. I’m also comfortable caring for senior pets and following detailed feeding, medication, and exercise routines. My goal is simple: to treat every pet as if they were my own, so you can travel with peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, responsible hands.

Ratings and reviews
Walt took great care of my pup Pasta. He only stayed overnight but I would definitely have him stay there again! He was very kind and responsive and gave my pup lots of exercise he was so tired when he came. Highly recommend!

Schedule
I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable, attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply companionship, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention and aren’t left alone for long periods. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs before every booking. I follow feeding, medication, and exercise instructions carefully, maintain a clean environment, and always prioritize safe walks and supervised play. As a board-certified physician, attention to detail, responsibility, and clear communication are qualities I bring to every visit.
Pets
A typical day
Every pet is different, so I tailor my care to their personality and energy level. For active dogs, we’ll enjoy walks, games, and plenty of exercise. For more relaxed pets, I’m just as happy to spend time providing companionship or keeping them company. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

- Please let me know about your pet’s daily routine, favorite activities, medications, allergies, feeding schedule, and any behavioral quirks or anxieties. I also appreciate knowing how they interact with other people and animals, any commands they know, and anything that helps them feel comfortable. The more I know beforehand, the better I can provide personalized care.
