Your pet’s 2nd best friend!

Pet care experience

I have loved and cared for dogs ever since I had my first golden retriever when I was 8 years old. After a while we had two golden’s running around. We also had a cat. I worked on farms in Wisconsin and cared for cows, pigs and chickens. I have been around animals all my life. Cats seem to like me too. The only reason I don’t have a pet of my own is that I travel internationally a couple times a year for fun and adventure.

I can't say enough good things about Cory! He was amazing with our two cats over the week and sent us videos of them and stayed in touch to let us know they were happy and doing well. Our cats are so shy and nervous but they immediately warmed up to him. He is so great with pets and has the perfect personality for taking care of pets and making them feel welcome and comfortable.

Cody was very attentive to our dog. He took Sandi out for long walks and communicated daily. Sandi was worn out when we picked her up. I highly recommend Cory and look forward to using his services again.

Cory did a great job with our two dogs. He communicated well and sent lots of updates. He made our dogs feel comfortable and even took them outside to play each day which is really important to us. We would definitely book again!

Cory communicated very well while my pup was in his care. I was very nervous at first being first time using Rover but glad I chose Cory! I will definitely book with him again

Safety, trust & environment

I do not have any animals so your pet will be the king of the castle while they are here. I can crate them if need be. I am able to maintain any special diet and training that you are currently doing with your pet. I do live on the 3rd floor and there is no elevator so if your pet has issues with stairs and is not too big for me to carry, we should be ok. I love to take regular walks throughout my day and evening so your pet will get exercise if they want-on the flip side of that-with the mid-day heat we have here, I will make sure that they do not run the risk of overheating and limit their sun exposure and exercise in the heat, while also ensuring that they get plenty of water. The grounds at my condo unit is perfect for walks, and there is a wooded forest adjacent with trails for walking.

All cards on the table; this is as much for me as it is your pet. Having dogs around definitely boosts my mood and brightens my day. I live alone and work mostly from home. I recently moved here from Wisconsin and am not yet really plugged in to the social scene- as a result, I am usually home on the weekends. I have flexibility with my job so that I can walk your dog or cat and give them as much attention as they require during my work day. My condo complex has ample grounds for walks and play.
