Ben is a conscientious and kind person who takes great care of Rosalita aka Rosie. They are definitely forming a strong bond and Rosie enjoys her time with Ben. It is such a gift to have Ben care for Rosie!

Ben has always had love for dogs, but I never knew how much until he met my dog, Leila. The first minute that he met Leila, Leila was so comfortable, happy, and energetic around him - almost as if she felt safe with him. As they spent more time together, Leila's love for Ben only grew. He was always taking Leila on walks, playing with her, providing a space for her to cuddle up on the couch, and making sure her health and safety were a priority. Lastly, Ben is patient with all dogs, allowing them to take their time going to the bathroom or on walks - which you don't see very often.

You can put your trust in Ben when it comes to your pet. He will treat your dog as his own and ensure that they are taken care of the best that they can be. If you choose Ben to take care of your pet you will not be disappointed

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.
