I am currently a senior at the University of Dakota. Being a senior I have a more relaxed schedule as I have only a few classes left to take. This means I have time to fill and why not spend it doing something I would enjoy. I also want to make a little extra money. In the recent year, I have started working for a dog trainer on the weekends and have learned a lot. I am confident to say I know dog behavior and how dogs work. I love playing with dogs and have many toys of my own I could bring to play with your dogs.

Dog skills

18 years of experience
Oral medication administration
Senior dog experience
Can provide daily exercise

Safety, trust & environment

I will feed/water and take your dogs for walks. Anything you might ask of me to do for your dog I will do. I will not be doing in my own home Dover night dog services as I have roommates who would not approve.

Information Wilson D. would like to know about your pet

Obviously tell me if your dog is reactive. I can still work with that. I am very close with a dog trainer in Sioux Falls and have learned a lot from him. I have watched the way he handles dogs he doesn’t know and dogs with trust issues.

A typical day

I can take your dogs on any type of walk you would like. After raising my own German shepherd, I have realized there’s a lot more that goes into having a dog than people realize. I can take them to dog parks, and I know of some great trails outside of town for longer walks.

Pet care experience

I have loved and taken care of dogs since before I can remember. I own a 1 year old German shepherd. So I am well versed on the puppy phase struggles as well as the teenager phase. I love dogs probably more than people and will be a great sitter for your dogs.

Wilson has been around our home for years (my son’s best friend since grade school) and feels like part of the family, including to our pets! He’s always had a love for animals and a natural way with them. Our dogs (and cats) love him. He’s doesn’t just watch our pets when we ask, he truly spends time with them. Whether it’s playing in the yard or at the lake, making sure they’re fed and have fresh water, or just giving them attention, Wilson is dependable, kind, and makes sure they are well taken care of. We’ve trusted him with our pets countless times and we always feel at ease knowing they’re in good hands. He’s respectful, responsible, and just genuinely enjoys being around animals. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like his own, Wilson is your guy.
