Pet care experience

I’ll keep their tail waggin!

From my 1st pet, a cat named Apollonia (yes, I’m a huge Prince fan), to my current squirrel-chasing dog Clover, I’ve had pets since I was a knee-high human! I met my dog sitter here on Rover, and now, when she goes on vacation, I watch the dog sitter’s dog! I’m also on the Board of Directors for the nonprofit “Philadoptables”, helping Philly’s homeless animals everyday! My dog Clover even has her own webpage “Clover’s Corner” featuring a new rescue pet everyday! After 30 years on the radio, I’m enjoying some down time by hangin out with all the cute pets in the area. I’m used to waking up at 4am, so odd hours are my specialty! I’m in Breweytown, just a couple blocks from the Lemon Hill area of Fairmount Park. The Art Museum area is also part of my dog walking routine.

We love David! I always look forward to his descriptive and funny play by plays of his time with my dog. It brings a smile to my face and I know my Cooper is always in good hands.

David is great—I’m a paranoid freak when I leave my cat, and he does such a great job with pics and updates! Reliable, responsive, and really eases your anxieties. Thank you David!!!!!

Since there are SOOO many other dogs out in our area at any time, the most important thing I’d need to know is if your dog likes his space, or is ok to be with other dogs.
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.
