Pet care experience

Dog uncle for all the pups!

Hi there! I'd like to take a moment to introduce myself-- I'm David. I have been dogsitting for the past three years with Rover. Quite honestly, I have a lot of fun doing it. I have a job in IT that allows me to work fully remote so I am always home — what a great opportunity to have furry friends around :) My Rover experiences have been very diverse. I have worked with many different dogs, and have met some interesting owners as well. I work best with dogs that are low to medium energy, well behaved, potty trained, and also work well with lots of different owners. I live in a townhouse in East Dallas over by Baylor Scott and White hospital - 1400 square feet and big enough for your pet to roam. I also have an attached backyard space that is fully enclosed by fencing on all sides. In general, my dogsitting style caters to the individual needs of each dog. Whether your pet prefers to lounge around, or is more active and likes to chase a ball, I try to be attentive and engaging! Please feel free to read through my reviews to get a good idea of the feedback previous owners have left. Any other questions, please feel free to reach out to me directly. Thanks!

David was amazing with our dog! He took such a good care of her, was understanding of some difficulties she was going through due to our other dog passing. David communicated with us all the time and sent us pictures and regular updates. Beyond 5 stars!

David was wonderful with Ruby and he communicated very well. He even spoiled her with walks to the Katy Trail. We will be booking with him again in the future.

Q How does pet care fit in my daily or weekly routine? A Very easy. I am home most of the time and so it is very easy to take care and provide interaction with pets.

Safety, trust & environment

I follow a routine just like all other pet owners. Morning routine -- pee break and feeding time. Followed by a nice brisk walk around the complex. Play time in between. Walks, more pee breaks, and more play time until a bedtime story in the evening. Then dinner, couch cuddling, pee break, and then finally bed.

A typical day

Dog-walking, fetch, tug o' war (if it's okay with owner). There is a great doggy run in my complex that is great for throwing a ball. There is also a 2 mile bike path not far from where I live and it is great for going on long walks.

David can host up to 2 pets per night
I mostly just need to know the breed and size, and whether the dog has any special requirements (oral or injectable medications). Also helps to know if the dog is a rescue.
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.
