Gentle, Caring Dog Sitter
Pet care experience
My gentle and calm presence is a great fit for dog walks and dog sits. When I'm not taking care of pets, I enjoy helping people heal through acupuncture and herbal medicine. Part of my success in pet sitting is that I bring the same patience and attention that I provide for my patients to the dogs that I care for. I have experience working with dogs on restricted diets and with dogs who take medications, and am especially fond of older dogs that need help as they age gracefully. I have more availability earlier in the day, from morning to early afternoon. As far as weekends go, the first, third, and fourth (and fifth, depending on the month) weekends are best for me. Thanks for stopping by, looking forward to spending time with your dog!
Reviews
Simply put, David is AMAZING. He agreed to book a six-day house/pet sitting with very little notice and took time to meet with us to make sure we were comfortable with the booking, with him, and to take time to really get to know how we care for our three dogs to ensure that he would provide the best possible experience. And did he ever!! Every photo and text from David showed our girls so relaxed, and happy, and basking in tons of personal attention and love that can only come from someone that has a real passion and heart for taking care of our four-legged family members. We were able to have complete peace of mind knowing that our girls were in such loving hands - they got to stay in their comfortable surroundings with all the care and attention we would have given them if we were there. ICING ON THE CAKE - we came home to a really thoughtful handwritten note from David - super sweet - and a house that was neat, clean, and well maintained. David even did laundry and made sure the towels and sheets were all fresh and ready for our return. He truly went above and beyond. Suffice to say, we will book David every time we travel, as long as he'll have us!!
I've been a sitter on Rover for the past 5 years, dog-sitter for the past 15 years, and worked for a professional dog-care company as well. David is the only other sitter that I trust to refer dog owners to. He gives the same level of tailored dog-care that I would want, he has integrity & responsibility, and dogs love his calm caring demeanor. I've seen it time and time again, both people and dogs are drawn to his warmth & positivity. David has my highest recommendations!
