Lifelong dog owner who currently doesn’t have a dog. I’ve cared for a wide spectrum of dogs and love them all. In the past I became the owner of an aggressive dog and with just love and affection totally transformed her behavior.

This my second time booking with David as he is such a wonderful sitter for our 16 year old pup :) Very attentive and makes sure she is well cared for! We really appreciate him making her feel at home while we are away! Would definitely book again with him!

David is very personable and Sunny seemed very comfortable with him. Outstanding communication! We’ve already rebooked, knowing Sunny will be very well cared for.

David was incredibly responsive, kind and easy to work with! He took on my elderly 16 year old pup within a 24 hour notice after we found out our Airbnb didn’t allow dogs :( He took great care of her and sent daily updates which we really appreciated! She felt right at home with him and he made us feel very comforted knowing she was in good hands! Will definitely rejoin with him in the future :)

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.
