Active Sustainable Dog Lover

Pet care experience

I am a master’s student at USF seeking a career in the electricity and renewable energy Industry. Growing up with a Golden Retriever, I have loved dogs all my life. While my living situation won't allow for me to own a dog, I surround myself with dogs - pet-sitting my dad's 4 dogs over multiple weekends, being a proud 'uncle' to friends dogs, and frequently playing with my girlfriend’s pug (little Ruby has already lost a pound!). I see Rover as the perfect way to have the dog time I love, help my community, and supplement my income. From snuggles to playtime to running a dog on a skateboard and everything in between, I can be depended on to give your dog(s) the time, care, and attention they deserve.

So sorry to lose him to a full time job in the City. He is the best!

Dainen is an amazing caretaker for dogs. He has taken care of my fur baby several times, and I've been so happy with the love and attention he has given Ozzy (fur baby). There have been instances of last minute care needed or well-planned trips where we have needed Dainen's help-either way, he has been so accommodating and willing to provide the best care to our pup. Dainen goes above and beyond when watching our dog, and that is such an important characteristic to me. We usually only expect him to walk our dog once a day (or every other day) and be present to feed him twice a day), but Dainen will often walk him multiple times (or run him on the skateboard!) in a day, keep Ozzy company for hours, take him on adventures or social outings and gives Ozzy lots of love-which is really reassuring for my mom guilt when I leave my baby! I highly recommend Dainen for any services you may need for your dog. He is responsible, caring and does a great job of keeping me updated with his daily activities when he's watching my dog (via text or pictures). It's always hard to leave your pet behind for any reason, but Dainen eases that worry and provides really high quality care that I can count on!

We were very happy with Dainen taking care of our precious cooker spaniel Maddie, in our home for a week. The meet and greet was nice, and Maddie seemed to love him right away. During the stay with Maddie, Dainen has been updating us daily with texts and pictures. He left our house very clean and tidy. He is very responsible and caring, and we look forward to contact him again for our next vacation. We would highly recommend him as a dog sitter.

Dainen has taken care of my big golden retriever as well as my little Bichon's. He has always been very reliable, but more important he is loving and playful with my fur babies, yet knows how to balance affection with good pack leader skills. I know you and your doggies will love him!!
