Pet care experience

Hello. My name is Curt M. I have had animals in my life since I was young and enjoy being around them as much as I can. I am an Eagle Scout and love the outdoors. I have done dog sitting, boarding and walking professionally for about eight years, but have been taking care of animals since I was young. Dogs and cats are my favorite, but I have experience with many kinds of domestic animals. I focus on building relationships, both you and your little ones. Having a good relationship is always the best starting point. Your pets will be so happy to have me as a new friend! I love being with animals and take great care in providing the best service possible. I also don’t mind any weather or any time of day or night. Any chance to be with pets is worth it! I also specialize in bigger breeds and have lots of energy!

Curt is phenomenal! I'm brand new to Rover and was in a situation where I needed temporary care for a dog I'd just helped rescue from a high kill shelter. My situation was very unique and my ask was pretty tall - sweet Remy girl had been severely neglected, so she had mange, long nails, an ear infection, and a pretty nasty respiratory infection, which is contagious to other dogs (I have a senior dog at home, so I couldn't foster her as planned). Also we didn't know her history, so could only provide behavior info based on shelter notes & the few days I'd spent with her in a hotel. And of course, the request was urgent and I needed someone right away since I was somewhat stuck and racking up a hefty hotel bill. Curt responded to my inquiry right away and was more than happy to help. He came to the hotel for a meet & greet with her, bringing her toys & treats. She fell in love immediately and wanted to leave with him right then! Since this pup is technically under the care of the rescue organization, they needed him to complete some additional paperwork, which he happily did right away. I dropped Remy off the next morning and Curt spent so much time with us giving me a tour of the property, saying hi to the other doggies through the window, explaining how he'd be caring for her. He made special arrangements for her to be isolated in an exterior room separate from the house, cozy with windows, a couch, blankets, and toys. He knew how worried I was about leaving her alone since I didn't know what kind of behavior to expect, and spent so much time reassuring me! He paid close attention when I went through her various medications and dosing instructions. After I left, I started getting updates right away. It was the BIGGEST relief! I could see how happy she was from the pics and videos he sent me & it really meant everything after the whirlwind adventure I'd had with her! Before booking him, I considered just paying to stay in a hotel with her myself so I could make sure she was well taken care of, but at this point I'm 100% convinced she was better cared for with him than she would've been with me. 😊 Long story short - Curt is amazing, flexible, friendly, communicative, and most importantly LOVES dogs. Super grateful to have found him and for him helping out with this sweet girl's rescue mission. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for a great person to care for or walk their dog(s)!

I have three dogs of my own, that are very friendly and love to treat new doggies as one of the pack. I have a fenced yard, and plenty of space for your fur babies to run and play! If they stay overnight, there are also many dog beds around the house and they are always welcome on the couches and beds! If I am staying at your home, I will treat your little one or little ones as my own. We will snuggle and be close while I am there and also will make sure the house stays clean and orderly. Trash, mail, watering, etc is also free of charge if I stay at your home!

Information Curt M. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if there are any allergies your little one might have. Also, if they have any special needs like trouble walking, vision issues, anxiety, etc.

A typical day

We will go to any local parks, or open areas. We also might go to a dog park or two and I always have really good snacks for the puppers. I also always have different kinds of squeaky toys to play with and we will get some runs in, if the puppers want to exercise! If they are at my place for day care or boarding, I have a fenced pool for swimming that I will monitor if they would like to take a dip!
