Dog-loving Screenwriter

Pet care experience

I'm the type of guy that will stop you on the street, ask you what your dog's name is, and be too excited about your dog to even ask for your name--sorry in advance if I ever do this to you! I love spending time with dogs--I like playing fetch as much as they do and love long hikes. Since I'm too broke to care for my own dog right now :(, I would love to help care for your dog so that I can get more canine companionship in my life! Over the past year, I have dog sat for about 10 different dogs. From dogs with strict dietary restrictions to dogs that need to be muzzled and watched closely on walks to puppies that aren't yet fully house-trained, I have cared for dogs of every level of difficulty and still loved every second of it. Thank you very much for considering me to care for your dog--it is an important responsibility that I don't take lightly. I am a recent Carnegie Mellon University graduate who works a part-time remote job with flexible hours in the film industry with aspirations of becoming a screenwriter. I need some extra money to keep pursuing my dream of writing, and with my love of dog sitting, I think Rover is a great fit--all this means that I have very few commitments and will be able to take the time and energy necessary for your beloved animal. I am available for any dog watching/sitting services that Rover offers! I live in a large house in Squirrel Hill with plenty of room for a dog to play inside. My house also has two other roommates that love being around dogs and playing with them--so your dog will always have at least one person around to keep them company and take them out. There are many parks nearby and I love to take long walks even without dogs (so with them makes it even more enjoyable!). Due to the many dogs that have stayed at our house, we have accumulated dog beds, crates, toys, snacks, and just about everything necessary to care for your pet. This is a perfect environment for your dog--full of friendly faces and people more than willing to play with and walk your furry friend!

Rocky loves going to daycare with Cullen each week. He’s well prepared and spends a lot of time playing with Rocky and taking him out.

Cullen did a wonderful job with Hailey and we'd definitely bring her by again. She can be a bit of a high-maintenance dog so she is not for everyone, so it says a lot for us that he was able to not just watch her but keep her safe and happy throughout her stay.

Safety, trust & environment

Pets at my house are welcome to be just about anywhere—my couch and bed are totally fine with me, if it’s fine by you (I usually implement whatever rules the dog owners have at their own house). But the star of the show is definitely a nice, grassy fenced in backyard. Nothing huge but definitely enough room for potty breaks, playing fetch, and/or wrestling with other dogs. For more space, I live within walking distance of multiple parks, the closest being Arsenal just a couple blocks away.

Information Cullen W. would like to know about your pet

I have experience with dogs of many shapes, sizes, breeds, and various needs. I love watching puppy dogs or senior dogs. And I’m great at hiding pills in peanut butter if your dog has any medical needs! Knowing a dogs energy levels, medical needs, social preferences, etc. makes watching them so much more rewarding and fun for all involved, so please tell me everything you’d like me to know about your dog!

A typical day

I love everything about watching dogs, from getting on my hands and knees to play with dogs to watching them explore and learn. I love to play tug of war, fetch, and/or wrestle with dogs (almost) as much as they do. I can always find the time for a dog to explore a new place and love watching them be excited by all the new sights and smells. And I love a sweet lap dog too, I’m also more than happy to spend most of a day cuddled up on a couch with your dog if that’s what they really love.

I run a record label from my house, which I love doing so so much. And I have excellent flexibility when watching/walking dogs—I can always put a pooches needs over my own to make sure they are cared for and having fun. I love being with dogs so it’s easy to schedule everything else I have going on around them.
