Home most days! quiet neighborhood!

Pet care experience

I have been around all kinds of pets my entire life; I am very comfortable around small or large dogs. I have quite a bit of veterinary experience too. I have a large, super friendly, standard poodle named Horatio - he loves people and other dogs; My home is pretty big with a large back yard. The neighborhood is very quiet and safe. I work from home full time and can host pets or do drop-in visits that aren't too far away. I have 2 kids with me 1/2 time and my partner, Azucena - they also love pets! I can't wait to meet you and your pet; Thank you for reading!

David was so great and accommodating and his living arrangements worked great for us and Yuki! His dog Horatio is very sweet. We’ll definitely book again. Thanks for taking such good care of Yuki!

This was the first time I arranged for drop in visit for Simba and I’m so glad I found David thru Rover. Simba was very furious and started ripping off his pee pads, David was so patient with him and also ran the vacuum and cleaned up the space. David also disciplined him during his drop visits. David will be too in my list to book for next drop in visits.

Great experience leaving our 10 year old dog, Sophie with David. She got along great with Horatio and we appreciated the daily pictures of their walks. She came home happy and healthy. Will be happy to use David’s service again. Thank you!!
