Information David G. would like to know about your pet

What are the most important things I should know about your pet's routine, preferences, and any specific needs or behaviors before I care for them?

A typical day

A typical day begins with a morning walk to get the pets energized and allow them to explore the surroundings. After the walk, I ensure they have fresh water and food, followed by some quiet time where they can relax or play with their favorite toys. As the day progresses, I plan interactive play sessions that vary depending on the pet’s personality. For more energetic pets, we might play fetch or run around at the dog park (if owner allows). For more relaxed animals, it could be as simple as a gentle stroll or puzzle games that challenge them mentally. In the afternoon, there would be some downtime where they can rest in a comfortable spot, followed by another walk or dog park playtime to keep them engaged. Before the day ends, I like to include some bonding time, whether it’s grooming, cuddling, or just relaxing together. Overall, my goal is to ensure each pet has a balance of exercise, mental stimulation, and comfort, all while making sure they feel loved and secure.

Excellent boarding experience with David. He responded promptly, and provided great pictures/videos throughout their stay. I felt my pups were safe staying with David and his wife. Their pup , Skye was a wonderful playmate as well.

I never expected Val to feel so at home and comfortable with Dave. He made friends very fast with them and their beautiful dog. I never once had to worry, even though they kept me up-to-date about Val‘s day, including pictures. I would highly recommend Dave to anyone, my only worry now is that Val will not want to come home, lol. If you’re looking for someone to excellent care of your dog, Dave is it, look no further.

David was an awesome sitter. He really took the time in every visit to make sure my dog was ok. He was punctual, reliable and very kind. He also communicated every day and let me know how everything was going. I will 10/10 recommend him and will be booking him next time.

David has cared for my pet, and I couldn’t have been more impressed with the level of love and attention he provided. He is incredibly attentive, ensuring my pet always felt safe and comfortable. His natural ability to connect with animals is matched by his professionalism and excellent customer service. David’s kindness, patience, and genuine care for both pets and their owners make him an exceptional caregiver and an all-around wonderful human being.

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.
