Pet care experience
I am 53 years old and live alone without any pets. I can provide your dog daily sitting throughout the week. I am often available for daily sitting or overnight stays on the weekend, just ask. I have a BA degree in Psychology and I graduated with comprehensive honors. I also completed medical school but don’t practice. I am intelligent, have medical knowledge, am very understanding and compassionate with people and pets. I am very friendly with animals and people and pets easily trust me.Because I studied psychology, I have excellent communication skills with you and very understanding and accommodating with you , and my skills in behavioral psychology are applicable with your dog if training is required. When I was a child, I was responsible for the daily care of our toy poodle, I fed her daily as needed and played with her with her toys daily. I also was responsible to let her outside to do her “business “. I also was up with her all night with her while she was giving birth and provided her comfort and water as needed. She gave birth to 3 healthy puppies . I took care of the puppies as needed, mostly cleaning up after them until all 3 were adopted at six weeks old. In her last 2 years of life, I was responsible for providing oral medications to aid in control of her seizures. As an adolescent, I had to provide daily care to my Greatdane. That involved daily feedings and providing refreshed water throughout the day. I was both my dogs every 2 weeks and monthly, applied tick and flea medication. I also played with my Greatdane daily with her toys as well as outside in our fenced yard. I was responsible for trading her to go outside to do her “business “. Moreover, I was responsible for cleaning the saliva she shook from her mouth throughout the day. This included cleaning myself, furniture, the floor , the ceiling, yes even the ceiling lol, and cleaning off the saliva from her face to prevent acne developing on her snout.
Reviews
I have known Bruce for about 30 years. Bruce has one of the kindest and gentlest natures of anyone I know, and he also is one of the most generous people I know. He is truly very good and respectful with all other beings on the planet, including both people and animals. I believe that Bruce has both the sensitivity and caring nature, and also the good common sense to be an excellent dog-sitter. I therefore highly recommend Bruce as a dog-sitter.
BRUCE D. IS THE BEST DOG SITTER THAT I KNOW!!!! He did an excellent job taking care of my dogs, Wiley and Roxy. He is caring, gentle, patient with each animal. He adapts and caters to their personality and each type of dog. He is punctual, reliable, honest, and hardworking. He took my dogs for their walks and playtimes regularly and always made sure the heat and temperature outside was not too much for my dogs. He catered to each of their needs and was very understanding. He is experienced with animals and this was representative of the way he handled Wiley and Roxy. I sincerely and strongly testify for Bruce D's referral as a dog sitter for Rover.com. I promise you will not be disappointed.
I have known Bruce for over 10 years. He is very responsible and loves all kinds of pets. Bruce will definitely make your pet feel at home so you can enjoy your time away from your pet. I highly recommend Bruce for Rover.
