Safety, trust & environment

I always have a meet and greet with the owners to go over all directions and details. I also like to get familiar with the animals so it allows for smoother interactions during our time together.

Information Dan C. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to know about a dog’s temperament when they meet someone new, especially a male. I don’t accept job offers that want me to take their dogs on off-leash walks.

A typical day

I can do most anything the owner asks of me. Quick potty breaks up to hour long visits and walks. Meals and meds can also be given.

I am an animal lover and advocate.

Pet care experience

My wife and I share our house with a 10-year old Nova Scotian Duck Tolling Retriever, and 3-year old Border Collie. I am a retired public school teacher, have always had a fondness for animals, and have had animals around me all of my adult life. The majority of my clients prefer me to come to their house to provide care for their pets. I can do quick drop-ins, potty breaks, feeding, playing with the pets in the house/yard, or taking dogs on short or long walks/hikes. I can take care of most types of pets: dogs, cats, birds, fish, lizards, horses, hamsters, rabbits, guinea pigs, and/or any other type of pet you may have. If you prefer to have your pet stay in our home that is another option I offer. My wife and I have fostered several dogs in our home for Paws n Hooves so our pets are used to having dogs come and go. Our two dogs get along and love to play with every breed and age of dog. All dogs will be directly under my supervision for the duration of their time while at our home. Please feel free to come and check out the layout of our house and yard before you commit to my in-home services. Whatever your pets needs may be, I’m confident that I can provide them for you. My mission is to take away any issues or concerns owners may have about their pets’ needs and allow them to enjoy their time away from home with confidence that their pet is being well taken care of.

As always Dan is amazing with my two rambunctious cats. He is very attentive and they seem to have taken to him when he visits. Highly recommend Dan if you need quality pet sitting.

Dan has been doing potty breaks/walks here and there for our two dogs for almost 10 months now and he continues to do a great job with them. Both can initially be unsure/nervous with new people and Dan’s calm and kind confidence has been a great match for them. He makes sure they both get exercise and attention and we highly recommend him!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
