Pet care experience

Sitter with a passion for pets 🌈

I have been a pet lover since I was a child. I grew up with multiple dogs, including a German Shepherd, a Golden Retriever, and a Beagle. I took most of my dogs to obedience school, where I learned how to train them basic commands such as sit, stay, and come. I am a responsible and reliable pet sitter, and I am always happy to accommodate your needs. I am also flexible with my schedule, so I can work around yours. I am familiar with all aspects of pet care, including feeding, walking, playing, grooming, and training. I am also experienced in dealing with pets with special needs. I love all animals, but I have a special place in my heart for dogs and cats. I am patient and understanding, and I know how to make them feel comfortable and safe. I would be honored to be your pet sitter. I promise to provide your pet with the best possible care while you are away.

Safety, trust & environment

The way I care for pets in my home and/or my client's home will vary depending on the services I offer. For example, if I am providing drop-in visits, I will typically arrive at the pet's home, feed them, walk them, play with them, and make sure they have access to fresh water and a clean litter box. If I am providing overnight stays, I will do all of the above, plus I will make sure the pet's bed is comfortable and that they have a safe place to sleep. Here are some specific things I will do when caring for pets in my home and/or my client's home: - Feed the pet according to their feeding schedule and provide them with fresh, clean water. - Walk the pet or take them to the park to play. - Play with the pet and provide them with mental stimulation. - Clean up any accidents. - Give the pet attention and love. - Monitor the pet's health and behavior and report any concerns to the pet's owner. I will also follow the pet's owner's specific instructions for care, such as any special dietary needs or medications. I will also take steps to ensure the pet's safety, such as keeping them away from dangerous objects and chemicals. I am a responsible and reliable pet sitter who is committed to providing the best possible care for all pets. I am confident that I can provide your pet with the love and attention they need while you are away.

Dane took good care of my babies as always! This was the third time I've used his services. There were no issues and communication was good.

Dane was a great pet sitter. He sent plenty of update pics, listened to instructions very well, and took good care of the house. My pets seem like they were at ease with him there and they were healthy and happy once I got back home. I will definitely hire him the next time I go out of town.

Dane was an amazing Dog Sitter for Maverick!! He sent me pics, checked in periodically throughout ever day and made me feel very comfortable while traveling to know he was well taken care of. And, in his own space and home which was an added bonus I was seeking from someone new!

Dane stayed with my elderly dog and kitten for a little over two weeks when I traveled for the December/January holidays. Dane sent daily pictures and updates, took amazing care of both pets, and went above and beyond what I expected. He stayed at my house so that the pets had minimal stress. He even shared some thoughts on how to help my dog deal with a few days of holiday fireworks, which terrify her. I will definitely use Dane again and recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, responsible pet sitter. Thank you, Dane!!

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behavioral issues that I should be aware of, such as aggression or reactivity. I am not breed-specific and I am comfortable working with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I would also like to know if your dog is trained with any tools such as prong collars or e-collars, as I am familiar with both.
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.
