I find it to be very rewarding and it’s been an honor and privilege to not only share my life, my home, with my beautiful animals, but also with the many others I have met and spent time with. I have been lucky enough to have been able to spend my adult life with four beautiful animals; Shiva the Black Labrador, Antonio the Chihuahua, Inky the Cat and Elvis the Green Iguana. I now share my home with my Axanthic Green Iguana named Kali Durga. Through them, I was able to meet other people, and care for their animals. Most of my “clients” were people who lived in my neighborhood, whose dogs played with mine, and who have known me for decades in many cases.

Cory is fantastic. He has been walking my two dogs three or four times a week for almost 4 months. Our first meeting he came to my condo and met my pets and I was immediately taken with how good he is with animals. He has never been late, he is completely trustworthy, has never not shown up, and only one time had a slight conflict which was able to be worked out easily. He takes the time to send a text after each and every walk letting me know how the dogs did and whether they peed or pooped, and if there was anything unusual he noticed. He’samazing. I would recommend Cory to anyone. He is absolutely the best. My dogs adore him!!!

Corey has been a huge life saver with my crazy work schedule traveling in random late night. He has come through to really help me out with Santana. Santana loves their walks and visits. He sometimes will show up on short notice due to my crazy schedule and I appreciate that I definitely recommend him if your dog is spoiled like Santana needs his walks in his bonding. Corey is the one! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Details: Dog • 1 pet • Giving food and water • Short visit (30 minutes) • A few times a week • My home, venue, etc.

Corey demonstrated excellent dog engagement skills while sitting with our fur baby. He eased her anxiety and gave her lots of TLC. During our away time Corey sent a picture and video of our fur baby enjoying herself. I will definitely hire Corey again.

Corey is fabulous; prompt, responsible, loving and totally dependable. We are very particular with our dog "Cash", who can be a handful. We trust him with Corey without reservation; and the dog adores Corey. Nothing but a positive experience now over the last 6 months. Can recommend him without reservation.

Hi everyone. Finding somebody to come into your house and let your dog out while you’re not there is one of the most difficult services to find. I 100% trust Corey with my golden retriever puppy who is five months old. Corey communicates with me he is always on time and he is super attentive and playful with my puppy. Not only is he trustworthy but he will send me his suggestions and expertise on different things that I can do for my dog and make sure that he has the best care when I am not there. If you are looking for someone to let your dog out then look no further. Corey is the one. He is absolutely amazing.

Details: 1 dog • 0 - 1 years old • Medium (26 - 40 lbs) • 30 minutes (standard) • Prefer a private walk for my dog(s) alone • My home, venue, etc.

FAQs

  • How did you get started doing this type of work?

    I got a puppy in 1997 and when walking her out and about I met many neighbors. I had just left a job and was not working. People who saw me interact with my pup and other people’s pups, could see how much I truly enjoyed just spending time with them. Neighbors quickly started asking me if I could walk their dogs. I was enjoying my self so much, it became my “job” then my profession. I spent many hours at the local dog park and over the years I realized, it was and has always been more than a job. I grew to really care for every dog I spent time with. Some dogs and cats, I cared for from their puppy-hood until they passed on. I’ve always been a sole walker, which allows me to pick and choose which dogs and cats I care for. Almost thirty years, and I’m a better person for animals allowing me into their lives!
