About us

Screenshot_20200921-151432_Facebook_edited.jpg

My name is Marcus, and my furry child's name is Alfredo. I met Alfredo at the Copper Country Humane Society in Houghton, MI, where our journey began. I have had him for about 10 years, and he has grown so much from being a stray to myself adopting him out and being returned to the shelter. He has obviously found his forever home with me, and he is now 12 years old and still moves like he is four years old. I quit my career as a professional chef and created Fredo's Paws to give dog owners an affordable and effective service for their furry companions. I have owned dogs of various breeds and have worked in shelters where I was able to expand my knowledge and skills. I have studied the best trainers in their respective training styles and applied them to my teaching methods. Working with dogs from different backgrounds and mental states helped me grow as a trainer and owner. I am confident that I can help everyone of all levels build better relationships and lives with their companions.

  Many of you may wonder what separates Fredo's Paws from other services. The main difference is the personal approach and flexibility we offer dog owners. Our services allow you to have the financial flexibility and get quality service on a schedule that works for you. With the walking package, we offer multiple plans to fit all of your needs, and if there is something you would like done, that can be easily worked into a package catered to your needs. All of the walks are trained walks, unlike what you would receive from traditional dog walkers. We also offer day services. These services are unique in that we would give the owner the freedom to enjoy your life without the stress of taking your dog to a new environment that can be very stressful and time-consuming. Whether you have a date night, are going to the mountains, or have to stay overnight, planned or unexpected, we are here to help. Like the walking packages, day services will also be customizable to meet your needs.

  Training is by far the backbone of Fredo's Paws. We pride ourselves on giving the owner the confidence to train their furry companion. All of our training packages move at the pace of the owner. We will form a plan to reach all of your short and long-term goals; we approach and handle all cases with the same care we had with Alfredo's training. All sessions, even the walks, come with progress reports and updates on health. Contact us and start a plan catered to your needs!
