WFH Full-Time Pup Care!! 🐶

Pet care experience

Having dogs in my home since I was a kid I’ve always had a love for taking care of these wonderful animals we call our best friends. Most recently I’ve had two beautiful golden retrievers be a part of my family that I’ve taken care of for the bulk of my life. As my family travels between the UK and the US, I am the one who has trained, fed, bathed and looked after these dogs. Apart from dogs, I’ve also grown up with cats and horses, so if you have large dogs, do not worry I can handle them too! I currently work from home so my availability/accessibility to the dogs is 100% uninterrupted. I live in the heart of Northern Liberties with a park and dog park no more than a block away from my apartment. I have a large two floor, open floor plan apartment that has the space and freedom for your dog to live comfortably and enjoyably throughout its whole stay. Whether your pup needs routine potty breaks, a comfy couch to snuggle up on, or some stairs to get some zoomies out, my apartment is a perfect place for your pup’s home away from home.

I can’t thank Dan enough for watching our two dogs over the weekend. He took such great care of them and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. We’re newer to Philadelphia and have struggled to find someone to consistently watch our dogs that we are comfortable with. Dan is definitely the best Rover experience we’ve had in the city and he is our new go-to moving forward! Thank you, Dan!!

Dan did a great job with our dogs Frank and Lucy. He was reliable and kept us updated, which we really appreciated. It's nice to know we have someone we can trust with our dogs. Would recommend!

Dan dropped by to check on our dog while we were out of town for the night. He was communicative, easy to work with, and gave our dog some wonderful quality time! Hope we can work with him again.

No matter what, I look to provide the best possible experience for the animal I’m taking care of. I will always defer to the owner on specific care instructions to ensure a maintained routine for the dog and minimize the likelihood of increasing their stress. Whether it’s going to the dog park or going on several walks throughout the day, I like to make sure the dog is comfortable, happy, and properly exercised!

Information Dan H. would like to know about your pet

I love to learn about the dog’s day to day habits, behavioral quirks and overall preferences. If they like to sleep in bed, lounge on the couch, or feel more comfortable in their crate, I’m open to all suggestions from the owner. It’s also very important for me to know any medications which needed to be administered for the dog as well!

A typical day

I always love to explore outside with the dogs I take care of, go for walks, and keep them overall active and happy. I always find the more you interact with the dog, the more comfortable they are and the happier they will be with you.
