Highlights
Pet care experience
Happy dogs live long lives!
Dog lover since 1992 and has cared for 5 different huskies in my family. As a kid, I regularly took care of our Siberian husky brothers, Rambo and Rascal, since they were 6 months old. Loves dogs with high energy and enjoys seeing their excitement when they get to go for a walk. Your doggo is in good hands when they’re with me.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I live across the street from Turner Park in Roselle with walking trails nearby. Our yard has a big grassy backyard that is perfect for your dog to explore while supervised on a leash. For pet safety, I always walk dogs outside with a leash and I always try to avoid meetings with other dogs; I always carry pocket pepper spray for the off chance that an aggressive dog gets loose and wants to cause harm (my good friend lost the tip of his index finger to a Pitbull who attacked his Husky at a dog park). I also avoid dog parks as I cannot trust other dogs around yours. I safely drive a SUV for the possibility that your dog needs to be picked up and/or dropped off. To avoid ticks, I don’t let dogs rummage through tall grass. If you have more than one dog that needs care then they are always feed in separate areas to avoid any confrontations. Willing to provide dog washing upon request.
Ratings and reviews
David and his girlfriend were true dog whispers. I have a senior dog with separation anxiety from me. But they took care of her so well, we didn't have any issue and she loved her time there. They took so many photos (4-6 photos daily!) and shared updates to me very often. Highly highly recommended. Thank you so much for taking great care of Bori! ❤️
David is a very loving and compassionate dog caregiver. David has taken very good care of my elder Pom-Jack-a-poo, who adores him. I would highly recommend David for all your pet caring needs.
David is a very reliable and trustworthy dog sitter. I can truly say I’ve seen all dogs falls in love with him, instantly. He grew up raising 3 high-energy huskies and knows how to care for dogs who need a lot of exercise, love, and attention. He is the type who will take your dog on 3 walks a day and go out of his way to make them feel comfortable and well taken care of.
