Simply put, I love dogs. I'm sure plenty of the other Rover walkers and sitters do too (why else would we be doing this?). Beyond caring about dogs, I care about making the world a better place. Knowing that the people - and pets - we care about are being cared for, let's you relax. When you're calm and reassured, you move through life with a bit more kindness. If I can do what I love, and help the world love a bit more in return, then that is a dream job. Your family will love the care I provide because I'm attentive, active, and engaging. I've been working with dogs for over twenty years. I grew up with dogs. I had a pet care business in the Bay Area of California for the last 5 years. A lot of my friends say that my spirit animal is a dog. Dogs and I just click. The most important part of any relationship is communication. Open, honest dialogue is a primary part of what makes my service go above and beyond your average pet care provider. Before working together, we have an in-depth conversation to get to know you and your pet's needs. During a walk or sit, I send regular photo updates and notes for how we spent our time together. After time with your pup, I send a detailed review of what we did and how much fun we had.
