About Robert R.:

You specify your dog care needs, and I'll meet them. I have no prejudice against any breed. However, I can only care for your dog at my house if he/she is an outside dog and is compatible with other dogs. Otherwise I'll need to work in your home where the dog is more comfortable. Prices are negotiable depending on the needs of your furry friend :)

Robert R.'s Experience:

Though I've never been employed in the industry, I've interacted with dogs my entire life. I've never lived in a house I didn't share with a canine friend. I've worked with a wide range of breeds from Chihuahuas and Dachshunds, to American Pit Bulls and Australian Shepherds. Neighbors and friends have always called on me first to dog sit in their absence. My sister, Cassie Robison, is a veterinary technician who houses up to six American Pits at time; some of them rescued from hurricanes like Katrina and Ike. I've assisted her with feeding, grooming, exercise, medication dispensing, obedience training, behavior intervention, et cetera. I've even begun to work with here on relieving anal gland excretion. I'm pursuing a Veterinary degree. I absolutely adore dogs and want to excel in a career I would thoroughly enjoy.

How long have you been a dog lover? Tell us about your history with dogs.

I've owned a variety of dogs: 1 Dachshund; 2 Labradors; 1 Miniature Sheltie; 1 Chihuahua; 1 Chickapoo; Pit Bulls; et cetera. I even have experience dealing with Mastiffs, Greyhounds, Beagles, Australian Shepherds, many Terriers, and much more. I love them all alike.

What would you like to know about a dog before sitting him or her? Do you have any breed preferences?

Is he/she an inside or outside dog; allowed on furniture; compatible with other dogs/animals; have a special diet/feeding schedule; medication prescriptions/schedules; exercise/playtime routines; specific behavior patterns; grooming needs. Clients with more than two dogs will be charged an additional fee. (Contact this add for details about additional services).

Do you have reliable transportation in the event of an emergency?

At the moment my personal vehicle is not up and running. However, I have friends all around the Houston area who'd be willing to assist me with transportation in a heart beat in the event of an emergency.

Are you comfortable administering medication?

Absolutely.

Are you willing to do additional tasks at my home while I'm away
(e.g., water plants, bring in the mail)?

Absolutely.

How much time do you plan on spending with my dog each day?

I take on a maximum of two clients a day considering they are within a close proximity of each other. I spend 3 hours of quality time with the dogs at each location before rotating: 6am-9m; 9:30pm-12:30pm; 1pm-4pm; 4:30pm-6:30pm. From 7pm-10pm I check in on each dog one last time to get them settled in for the night. Overnight supervision can be provided for an additional $10 upon request. In the event your my only client booked on a scheduled date of service, I will be spending all day with your furry friend(s) at no additional cost.
