Information Brian K. would like to know about your pet

We are best prepared to let you know if your pup is a good fit if you give us some info on their energy level, how well they do with other dogs, and any special needs they may have. That, of course, is just a good conversation starter, as we're happy to chat further the potential stay and any questions you may have!

A typical day

During our free time, my wife and I are typically couch potatoes, so our specialty is curling up on the couch with a couple blankets and our doggie friends, and enjoying some TV!

Workin' From Home, Givin' Bones

Pet care experience

Since I work from home, and I typically cap overnight guests at two per day, I am able to keep an eye on your dog throughout the day, and make sure they have all the love and affection they need. Our resident senior pooches, Doc and Lady, are quiet but welcoming and will be happy to share our home with your pup. Our 3000 sq ft home provides plenty of space for your dog to stretch out, or cuddle up close on the couch. Our neighborhood is quiet and safe, providing for stress-free walks at any time of day. We are an ideal fit for low energy pups looking for a relaxed environment full of cushy beds, couches, and cuddles (along with a full stock of toys for the occasional tug of war!). My wife and I are detail oriented, and are more than happy to accommodate special schedules or instructions for feeding / walking / etc. My wife grew up with dogs, and I joined in the fun when we became a couple, and we've been doggie parents ever since! We have volunteered at local shelters and have previously fostered. All of our dogs have always been adopted from shelters, and always will! It goes without saying that dogs are a huge part of our life, so please tell us about yours! We love hearing about what that makes your dog special, so that we can make sure they feel like they're at their home away from home.

Brian was great at caring for our pups! He was flexible, helped us out when we needed to adjust plans, and updated us regularly! We look forward to having the boys stay with him again!

Milo spent an amazing Christmas with Brian and his family. He was so happy, as always, and even got a surprise Christmas present from Santa! Brian is the best… Thank you so much! Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year.

I had never used Rover before and couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter than Brian! I received updates and photos throughout the weekend, making me feel confident that I had left Bernie in good hands. When I picked him up at the end of my trip, I got a happy, tired dog. I would absolutely use Brian again next time I have to leave town!

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.
