Quality pet care for quality owners
Pet care experience
Growing up my family always had a couple dogs. When I got married and moved out, my wife and I wanted to adopt a puppy from the local shelter. I always admired owners that had a happy and well-behaved dog. So, when we got our dog, I wanted to be that guy. I learned everything I could about dog training. Books, articles, YouTube videos, you name it. I was all in on the dog training. When I learned about Rover, I considered it to be a win-win situation. I get to spend time taking care of and learning about dogs, and the dogs don't have to spend all day lonely. Now we're all happy!
Reviews
Creed and Olivia are an excellent choice if you’re looking for someone to take great care of your pets! They have watched my rambunctious doodle several years in a row while I was on vacation. They follow all the instructions I give so my pup stays taken care of! Last year, my dog got an eye infection right before I left, and they made sure to get him the right meds to get it cleared up by the time I got back. If you’re looking for responsible, reliable, and someone who will love on your pets, I highly recommend Creed and Olivia!
Creed is a responsible and dedicated young man. He is passionate about working with dogs. He grew up with dogs and as a young adult, he and his wife adopted one of their own. He has taken that skittish, untrusting mid-sized dog and patiently and lovingly transitioned her into a well behaved and well socialized girl that loves to have fun and be around people! He has both, cared for and worked with several dogs in my family, successfully altering some not so favorable mild behavior issues and always providing great care. He truly enjoys helping dogs be the best they can be.
Creed is extremely caring for not only humans, but animals too. Him and his wife recently adopted a dog. At first, I had no hope for this dog. She was extremely skiddish and timid. Over the past year or so I have seen this dog transform into a completely different dog. She is well behaved, listens amazingly, and is a great companion. This is thanks to the countless hours creed has put into working with and training her. He was read books and watched so many videos to educate himself on how to best train dogs. I would highly recommend Creed as a responsible and loving pet caregiver.

Safety, trust & environment
We live in an old farmhouse so there is plenty of room to roam. However, it is not fenced in, so if we go outside to play, they will be kept on a long lead. We have one overly friendly wiggle butt that is fully off leash trained and a cat that stays inside. We also have an empty garage that we can crate dogs if we need to. At your own homes, I will take care of the pets the way you tell me to. For walks we'll probably stay in the neighborhood, but if there is a special walking destination I'm sure I can make that work.
Information Creed & Olivia W. would like to know about your pet
I don’t have a lot of experience with special needs dogs but I’m totally willing to watch them. Just let me know and give me the run down.
A typical day
I love building dog relationships through structured play time. Getting dogs to play and use their brain at the same time gives them the mental stimulation they need. It makes for a happier and healthier dog. With my dog we often go on walks. We usually start every walk with some loose leash walking, sort of as a brain warm up. This really gives her a lot more confidence being out in public.

Availability
My job has a 24/48 schedule. I work for 24 hours and then I get the next 48 off. I will be the primary one taking care of the animals. My wife currently stays home and will be filling in for me when I'm gone. That means 100% of the time your pet loved ones will get the love and care they need.
