Pet care experience

Offering piece of mind for your pet

I have loved animals ever since I was a kid from taking care of my class guinea pig to buying my first dog named Arthur with money I saved from my paper route. Inevitably life and a career took over with substantial travel which meant sadly I was never able to buy another dog but I would occassionlly pet sit for friends and family and I loved it because I got to spoil their pets and have fun with them even if it was only for a little while. Now, I'm retired and life is much less hectic so it affords me the opportunity to be at home with your beloved doggy fulltime which means more attention and time with your best friend. I am also very athletic and live near an awesome dog park where we can go for long walks and/or moderate runs as often as your best friend wants. Most of all, I will offer you piece of mind that your beloved pet and best friend will be in a peaceful and loving environment while being treated with the utmost care and attention as you are away on your vacation or business trip. I hope you will consider me as your next pet sitter and protector of your pet and I look for ward to meeting you and your pet really soon. Cheers!

David did a great job taking care of Spinach and he was great to communicate with. We also really appreciate that he was able to modify our reservation in the middle of it.

David, is great with our dog Karl. Karl is always happy when he returns from David’s and that tells me he has been very well taken care of. 10/10 would recommend you hire David if you want your dog safe and taken care of while you are are away from your fur baby.

David took great care of my little Yuhi! My little guy's health is not doing so great and David was great at making sure he got all of his medication and supplements. Would definitely trust him to look after Yuhi again!

I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog Salem received! David was professional, kind, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. They kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, which gave me total peace of mind. Salem came home so happy. I’ll definitely be booking with David again—highly recommend!

Safety, trust & environment

You will have total piece of mind that your furry friend and adored pet will be totally safe and happy with us at our home. We have a fenced in yard and two beautiful and spacious roof top decks that all our clients dogs seem to love for sun bathing and lounging in the fresh air surrounded by tropical plants. In all my years of doing Rover, I have never had an incident or issues and in fact I have even had Rover reach out to me to rescue other dogs where the Rover sitter could not handle the pet knowing my reputation for safety and complete care for my clients.

A typical day

Fun walks at Patterson Park, belly rubs and massages, wrestling sessions and tug-of-war games and always lots of scratches and kisses so your adored pet feels right at home with us day and night.
