WFH Pet Lover

Growing up my family always had a dog. Over the years we have had a total of three. I am lucky to be a dog dad myself now of my beautiful rescue Lola. Having her as a few month old puppy, my fiancée and I were able to train her so I do have experience and patience with puppies, along with older dogs as well.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

What I find works best is to meet with the dog and owner before hand to find out what kind of routine works best for them, what toys they like to play with, favorite treats ect. It’s all about making the owner feel comfortable and to make sure their pet is comfortable as well!

Dog Walking • Jun 29, 2026

I cannot say enough good things about Craig and his wife! We have been using them three times a week for our dog, Molly, and they have truly been a lifesaver. Craig is incredibly reliable and always shows up exactly at the times we agree on, and his communication is always spot-on. One of our favorite parts is that they bring their own dog along, and he and Molly get along so famously—it's wonderful knowing she’s getting some great socialization while out on her walks. Craig and his wife are just incredibly nice, friendly, and easy to talk to, making the whole experience completely stress-free. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for amazing, trustworthy care for their pup!

I’ve had the pleasure of caring for Craig’s dog, Lola, and can confidently say he is an exceptional pet owner. Craig is incredibly patient, kind, and compassionate towards animals, and it’s clear that he truly loves and understands his pet. His communication skills are excellent—he is always timely, thorough, and clear in his instructions. Working with Craig has been a wonderful experience, and I highly recommend him for anyone looking for a dedicated and caring pet sitter!

Craig is excellent with dogs. He has taken care of our German Shorthaired Pointed, who is young and VERY rambunctious. He has also taken care of our previous dog, a Weimaraner, which was also a challenge as she was very old and not very mobile. He is responsible, communicative, and trustworthy. Our dogs are like our children and he treats them like he would treat his own - with love, care, and respect. I've referred Craig to my friends with other dogs and even cats, people absolutely love him! I recommend reaching out to Craig, your pets will always be in good hands with him!

Schedule

I work from home so my schedule is flexible. I can do morning or evening visits or walks depending on what works for you and your pet!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs

Craig can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Some important things that would be great to know beforehand is what their schedule is like. For example when do they eat, go out to go to the bathroom, do they need any medicine, and how long of walks they like.
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.
