Pet care experience

Pet enthusiast!

I've pet sat for friends and family members for years. Just show and tell me how to care for your extended family members and I assure you I can and will do it. I love getting to know the individual personalities of pets and bonding with them. Being a cat owner myself, I understand the trust it takes to allow someone new into your life and home to care for your pet when you're away. I like to take my time getting to know a pet and their owner(s) so we can establish a solid bond. I am currently working part time so I have lots of free time to offer towards caring for your pet(s) and whatever else you may require from extra help.

My partner and I went on vacation for a week and David was so easy to talk to and our dogs warmed up to him the moment he entered our house. Our dogs are typically fussy about new people in the home but David was very careful to give them room and time to approach him and he played with them with no problems. We left care instructions for the dogs and David was nice enough to update us every other day on their behaviors with pictures and videos. He also offered to maintain and tidy up the house according to our specifications without any hassle. He's an outstanding sitter. I've recommended him to family and friends nearby. He's reliable and trustworthy.

I hired David for 2 weeks, one officially but due to some family matters, I needed someone to watch my babies an extra week and David was so gracious to help out. I was a nervous wreck trying to organize things on my end but luckily David had my routine with my pets down after a week and he was great on sending videos and pics to update me about their current states. I have rebooked David again for the upcoming holiday season, he's a fantastic sitter!

I had David spent a few hours at my place one night when my other Rover sitter cancelled last minute. He was a life saver! I had family visiting for a dinner reservation and I could not find anyone close by and willing to spend the time and effort to assist me with my Bella! She's a great big dane but super sweet and Immediately embraced David when he walked through the door. I left David with some instructions and left. Came back hours later than originally planned, a little past midnight and David was still there and sitting with Bella on the couch watching tv. He's a great guy and great sitter. Highly recommend!

David was great. I have a posse of Yorkies as well as an African Grey parrot. He was here for a week while I was having surgery and he took care of my pets and home with kid gloves. There was a huge emergency which he handled beautifully while staying calm and handled the situation beautifully. David will not disappoint while caring for your fur babies. Highly recommended!

What a great guy! He showed up at my place very quickly when I had to leave for a business trip. We chatted a little bit and he genuinely seems to care a lot about pets. It also helps when my cats and dogs instantly swarmed him and gave him some love. They're tough around new strangers so that was a reassuring sign. I'm big on videoing with people when they're watching my pets and he had no problems with that. I had him drop in every other day to check in and up on them, feed, clean, and let them out in the back yard to run around and play. No complaints from me.
