Pet care experience

I’m an experienced and caring dog owner and understand leaving your fur baby can be stressful. Rest assured, I’ll follow your instructions to the letter and send frequent updates via texts and photos. I’ve been an animal lover since I was a child and grew up with multiple dogs of different sizes, demeanors, and energy levels. My dog, Ziggy, loves to make new furry friends, and so do I.

Dale was very flexible and able to walk Milo at the last minute. Milo was definitely well cared for. Overall, I would highly recommend Dale.

Very good at communicating through the day with pictures of my dog and what they were doing. Gave me a full report of if he we to the bathroom when I went to go pick my dog up. Great experience!

Dale is 100% the best Rover host in the area and the most phenomenal sitter we've had for our girl, Tiger. This was our first time boarding Tiger in the Jersey City/Hoboken area (we're new to the city) and we were incredibly nervous to see how she would do in new care. However, our nerves were immediately eased upon meeting Dale and his wonderful pup, Ziggy. Dale sent us multiple photo updates to keep us posted on how Tiger was eating, playing, and cuddling with sweet Ziggy throughout the day. Dale also has access to great outdoor areas nearby for pups to play, and he made sure to take Tiger out frequently to get her zoomies out and stretch her legs (we received the cutest video of Tiger and Ziggy romping around in the sun). Even more, Dale had made homemade, organic frozen dog treats that Tiger was able to enjoy during her stay (he even sent us back home with one as well). You can truly tell how much care Dale has for his resident pup and guest dogs. We will always book with Dale for future trips and highly recommend him to anyone looking for exceptional care. Thank you, Dale, for your kindness and care to Tiger. We will be back to book again soon!

Dale was great. He communicated with me and sent many pics. I was so happy that I didn't have to worry about my dog while I'm away.

Information Dale M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has an special needs or behaviors I should be aware of. I want to be sure your dog is safe and comfortable and you can rest easy while they’re in my care

A typical day

I love to play fetch, tug of war, hide and seek, and training exercises with dogs. Depending on your dog’s personality, we could also go to a dog park. I have plenty of toys and puzzles to keep them entertained as well. When it comes to walks, I’ll always make sure to tailor the route to the dog’s needs and energy levels. I’ll always prioritize the safety and comfort of the dog while ensuring they have a fun and enriching experience.
