Safety, trust & environment

Based on the dogs personality but, I prefer to take care of a lot of their basic needs foremost. I like to try to play with them or take them on long walks to get there zoomies out of the way. Afterwards I like to cuddle with them or give them their space but, it all depends on the dogs personality and what you would like me to do with them. If I can I’d like to take them out and try to explore trails or their local neighborhood

Information Adam M. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to know if they take any medications or allergies foremost to keep them healthy. As well as any habits or quirks they might have such as being food aggressive or being left alone if they are in their kennel. Just so I can keep myself safe and the pets happy

A typical day

Id like to take them to the park for a picnic to meet other people and socialize. This allows them to get used to noises and environments they aren’t used to while also keeping them safe from other dogs

larger/senior dogs are my favorite

Pet care experience

I’m able to read dog body language clearly and have a calming presence for them. Most of my experience is with dogs 6 years and younger but, I love my senior dogs as well. Helping dogs to learn not to pull during my walks is another aspect that I’m versed in but, it requires time and consistency

Adam was fantastic! I was nervous leaving my dog with someone he had only met once before (for a meet and greet) but everything went so smoothly. He was a great communicator and very courteous.

Adam was prompt, professional and very knowledgeable. It’s hard to find someone you can trust with a strong and excited pitbull puppy but Adam had it handled. I will be booking with him again!

Adam did a great job house sitting with our pit bull.

Adam was great with my two large, high energy dogs! My younger, girl dog is typically a little timid around men and Adam immediately got down on her level and let her come to him. She was all wiggles and tail wags within minutes! I'm pretty picky about who I let watch my dogs, but I feel at ease knowing they're in such capable and caring hands.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
