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.

Information David F. would like to know about your pet

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.

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.

Dog uncle for all the pups!

Pet care experience

Hi there, I'd like to take a moment and introduce myself - my name is David. I'm a recent transplant to Dallas by way of Boston. I work in the healthcare/IT field. I started dogsitting through Rover three years ago and I absolutely love it. While I don't own any personal pets, I have been an uncle to one large samoyed named Zephyr, and a pet sitter for a friend who owns a golden retriever named Quincy. I think I've got a connection with dogs. Even for ones I haven't met, they always seem to come up to me in public places wagging their tails. As an example, after I dogsat Quincy for the first time, the next time I saw her, she almost pulled her owner trying to get to me to say hello.  I am very engaging and friendly with pets. Your dog can expect frequent walks and interaction; along with hourly pee breaks if needed (up to the discretion of each pooch). Your pooch will have 1400 square feet of space to roam about along with access to an enclosed, attached yard space. With all being said, my ultimate goal is to make sure that your pet feels welcomed, cared for, and attended to while you are gone.  If you've liked what you read, and would like to enlist my dogsitting services, please give me a shout. I'd be happy to talk and connect. **For new clients, use promo code to get $20 off your visit visit: DAVIDF16428 Thanks, David

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.

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.
