Pet care experience
What can I say. Dogs are therapy for me. Especially taking them on walks. A friend I frequently sit for told me about Rover so I figured I'd give it a go. Growing up my family used to breed German Shepherds. Now that finally own a home I've been itching for a canine companion. I figured Rover is a great way to get that companionship while earning some cash on the side. We are a very affectionate household who love all things Pacific Northwest. So your animal can look forward to frequent hugs, hikes and trips to local parks. Feel free asks any additional questions. My wife is a full time student. I work full-time but my schedule is pretty flexible as I partially telecommute.

Darrell is an excellent sitter! He takes such good care of our little guy and sends updates and pictures throughout the stay. We will continue to use him as our go-to sitter when we are out of town.
Darrell and his wife were great with my dog, who is a bit quirky. He was nice and tired when I picked him up and looked like he'd really settled into hanging with them at their place. They were accommodating and communicative and I'd recommend booking them.
Darrell W. was a wonderful caretaker. I have a "little old man Pit Bull. Darrell got my lazy boy out for walks, he took video of him running around like a puppy. He went above and beyond by picking up and delivering him back to me. This was my first vacation in 20 years, where I actually went somewhere. I felt at ease leaving my dog with Darrell. If I'm able to take off again, Darrell W. will be the one I want. Really can't thank him enough. I was lucky that Darrell's wife also cared for my doggie boy. I got two for the price of one.
Every once in a while life doesn't go as planned. A family emergency required me to be away from my fur babies for several months. Not only was I blessed to have Darrell taking care of them but they were blessed also. Darrell took the two very spoiled dogs on such fun daily walks that they were even more rotten when I got home than they had been before I left! Darrell stayed with them in our home, which he treated like it was his very own. Although he's more fond of dogs than cats, he took amazing care of my two kitties also. When I say amazing that's not an exaggeration. He was present every step of the way through my frail 16 year old's end of life when I could not be. He showed her and me unconditional love and compassionate care. He also tended to the special needs of my 8 year old cat without ever complaining about the extra work ahe required. I've had pets all my life and have never felt as comfortable with any other pet walker or sitter as I have with Darrell. He's truly special.
