Dan, Chris & Karen - We Love Dogs!

Pet care experience

My family and I are dedicated and experienced dog lovers who are committed to providing top-notch care for your pup. I grew up living with and caring for my dog, Sonny, since I was 7. He recently passed of old age and my parents and I have been lonely without him here. What sets us apart from other sitters is that it is truly a family affair and we all take care of your pup just as if they were our own. Whether your dog is a playful puppy or a senior dog who needs special attention, we have the skills and experience to make sure they feel comfortable and loved while you're away. Additionally, I am a great communicator and always keep pet parents updated with photos and messages, so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. With me and my family as your dog sitters, you can trust that your pup is in capable and caring hands. My family is very involved - my parents have flexible work schedules and between all of us there is always the best coverage for your pup, even if I have to go into the city on certain days for my job. My parents also love stepping in for dog walks! I started my Rover account about a year ago and it it has been so great - dogs bring joy to our family and my parents have become a big part of it, even when my schedule gets busy with work they are always there to step in!

Dan and his parents did an excellent job caring for Jessie, our 7 year old Golden Retriever. After meeting them, we felt confident that we could trust them to keep her safe and care for her properly. They went out of their way to make sure Jessie felt at home and treated her like one of the family. She enjoyed long walks and lots of cuddle time! I like that they only board one dog at a time so they were able to give her their undivided attention. It gave us peace of mind knowing she was in their loving and competent care. Jessie came home happy and relaxed and we would love to use them again!

Dan and his parents were great with Stella. They are a warm loving family, that showed Stella a lot of attention ! They treated her like one of their family, even when she got into a bit of mischief. We truly appreciated everything they did for her. They sent pictures and updates periodically, which put us at ease. Five Star rating!

My experience with Dan on Rover exceeded all expectations and provided unparalleled peace of mind during our time away. From the moment I contacted Dan, their professionalism, warmth, and genuine love for animals were evident. First and foremost, communication was outstanding. Dan was prompt and responsive to all messages, providing updates and photos regularly, which greatly eased any worries we had about leaving Luna behind. Knowing that my pet was in caring hands and receiving the attention and affection they needed made my trip infinitely more enjoyable. Not only was the communication top-notch, it was evident that they took the time to understand Luna's needs and preferences, ensuring they felt comfortable and loved throughout their stay. Additionally, the environment provided by Dan was safe, clean, and welcoming, creating a home-away-from-home for Luna. I appreciated the accommodations made to accommodate my pet's routine and preferences, further demonstrating Dan's dedication to providing the best possible experience. We will undoubtedly be entrusting them with Luna's care while we are away in the future. Thanks Dan!
