Humberto and his son helped me out immensely and honestly changed my life. I had 2 elderly dogs who, after many years living together, began to fight each other viciously at random times. This behavior became more and more frequent until I had no choice but to home them separately. I kept the dog who was most emotionally dependent on me and my other dog lived with first, my ex-husband and later with my mom. Once my mom became ill and could no longer take care of that dog, I had the choice to either rehome the dog once again or find out a way to finally have them both together at my home. I did some research online and found Pet Sitters Anytime. I appreciated that they were credentialed, licensed, and insured. They called me promptly after I emailed them and were very thorough and helpful in a short time frame. I began training sessions with them, walking my 2 dogs with other, larger dogs they were taking care of. During the first session, I almost lost hope as my 2 dogs were constantly trying to nip at each other and were very obviously stressed. He helped shape their behavior through each of the subsequent sessions and by the 6th session, they were allowed to remain home with each other. Absolutely no problems since then. For the first time in many, many years I was finally able to have my 2 dogs live with me together and it has brought me so much joy and comfort to be able to do that. I followed all of Humberto's advice as far as how to properly care for them and walk them so that they would not be aggressive to each other or to other dogs during walks. There was an issue of them still lashing out at each other sometimes when encountering another dog during walks (there are A LOT of dogs in my neighborhood, and unfortunately not all of them leashed). However, with Humberto's recommendations, that behavior has also diminished and pretty much completely disappeared - they do not even bark at other dogs anymore when passing and even unleashed dogs have not caused any issues since then.
In addition to the training, I have had Humberto and his son walk my dogs while I have been on vacation or out of town several times. My dogs really do love them and respect them and I know he gives them a proper workout, always texts me pictures and updates, and cares for them well whenever he visits them for their walks. I have had the pleasure of working with Humberto and his son since 2017 and highly recommend them to anyone who has either dog sitting, dog walking, and/or dog training needs. Best of the best, truly. read more
