Pet care experience

As a lifelong dog lover, I understand the care dogs truly need goes beyond just food and litter box duties. It's about respecting their boundaries while offering gentle affection when welcomed. I take time to tune into each dog’s unique personality and let them warm up to me on their own terms. You can trust I will be attentive to their communication and provide interaction based on their comfort level. Whether it's playing fetch in my backyard when they're energetic or soothing pets as they drift off to sleep on a quiet afternoon, I pride myself on catering to every dog’s individual needs. My priority is keeping your dog content with loving companionship while you're away. With the experience of caring for my family’s multiple dogs and pet sitting for others, I have learned the intuition and patience it takes to be an ideal sitter focused on attentive care.

Ben was very kind and gentle with Milo! He updated me daily on how he was and wasn’t afraid to ask questions. Bonus points for taking notes on my answers to questions!

Benjamin did a fantastic job taking care of my kittens! He provided regular status updates, bonded with them, and most importantly loved them. Book with Ben!

Benjamin is truly an animal whisperer, I have seen him with dozens of pets of all shapes, sizes, personalities etc. and he never fails to approach each animal with calm, care, and individualized love. He is responsible and caring and will be a wonderful addition to the rover team and to the families that need care for their furbabies.

I live by myself in a 2 bedroom house with a fenced in backyard. I currently do not own any pets myself, so I can devote all my attention and energy towards providing your cat with all the care and attention it needs.

Information Benjamin R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors I can account for. If I’m boarding, I prefer to work with mid sized or smaller pets, just because my house isn’t huge (though my backyard is decently sized).

A typical day

I absolutely love both playing with and relaxing with pets. We’ll play fetch and tug of war and run around in my fenced in backyard. Then perhaps a walk by the beautiful golf course near my house. During downtime, we can curl up on my couch and watch a movie with many pets and snuggles, and if the vibe is right, I may even serenade your pet as I practice relaxing piano improvisation in the evening.

I am currently a freelance musician, composer, and audio mastering engineer. What that looks like is that about every 2 or 3 months, I go on tour that lasts for a few weeks. I obviously do not accept pet care work during these times. But when I’m not on the road, I essentially work from home as a composer and mastering engineer. So essentially, as long as I am not touring and have accepted work from you, my schedule is wide open to provide full care to your pets.
