I’m a morning person so I am able to handle the earliest-rising dogs. Each weekday I go out on my dog walking rounds from about 10AM-2PM, abc after that I’m usually home for the rest of the day.

Information Brendan K. would like to know about your pet

I prefer to know what kinds of medications they take, what their usual routine is, how they are around other people, how they react to other dogs, and things to avoid while the dog is in my care.

A typical day

We’ll play games, we’ll cuddle on the couch, go for walks in the quieter, more open parts of town, and be the best of buddies.

Home-based artist in walkable city

Pet care experience

Ever since I was knee-high to Pomeranian, I've loved dogs. And dogs love me! I'm a walker and sitter with 7 years of experience and now, with a recent move, a very convenient location! I'm based in an apartment right in the heart of downtown Silver Spring, MD--a super walkable city for dogs to explore, sniff around, and "get their business done" in. I'm walking distance from the Red Line and have a car, so I'm able to get wherever you need me to go to care for your dogs. And, if you need them to stay with me, my apartment complex is incredibly dog-friendly-- there's a dog park nearby and, heck, there's even a jar of treats at the front desk-- and I will attend to any comfort and dietary need your dogs require. I look forward to meeting you and your furry little friends!

Brendan was a great sitter for Waffles. He was very flexible and even agreed to stop by the store to pick up extra food when I realized I had forgotten to pack it. He sent us cute pictures every day-it looked like Waffles had a great time. Would recommend highly.

Brendan was great with our very anxious dog. So thankful that he will care for her in the future!

We had a great experience with Brendan for Kailo's first stay. Kailo can be anxious in new situations, and he was comfortable right away with Brendan. Communication and photos were great. We will definitely book with him again!

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.
