Owner of Wolfman's Canines

Pet care experience

I've been around dogs my entire life. I was a Co-Director of Animal Care for a Non profit Wolf Rescue. I am experienced in basic obedience training, house training, and loose leash training. My wife and I have 6 dogs at our farm currently, Three Huskies, Two GSD's, and a Lab mix. I provide a unique experience that you will not find elsewhere. I have experience with a wide variety of Animals in many different situations. I can handle the most neurotic of dogs to your horse who wants a good brushing. My attention to detail, along with flexibility to work around the most hectic of schedules, combined with my passion for animals of all sizes, shapes and smells makes me the perfect choice to care for your four legged family member. No small dogs, we apologize. All Canines must be crate trained, no exceptions. A waiver for that requirement must be signed before boarding.

Walter did a great job caring for our dog Holly. He sent pictures and updates. I know our dog really likes him because when I came home she was happy and didn't miss me as much as usual. Walter is much more of a dog whisperer than I could have expected when we booked with him! I highly recommend him.

If I could give 5000 stars I would! Denali fit right in with the pack and they took amazing care. Will be going back.

Our girl Dory had a great time with Walter and his pack! She came back happy and tired. Walter even worked with her on some reactivity she has with large male dogs which we’re so grateful for. We’re so happy to have found Walter and that he’s right in our neighborhood!

Walter was great with our 10 month old puppy! She had a great time with him and came back a happy pup!
