Safety, trust & environment

My pets are like family to me. If they need anything I will take care of them. I keep an eye out for any dangers like open gates, other animals, and accessible food and garbage laying around.

Information David M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know how active your pet is and what they like to do. I’ll work with whatever dog you have wether they jump up down and all around or enjoy lumping around all day.

A typical day

We’ll play games until we’re both tuckered out. If they’re more of a sniffer than a walker than we’ll stop and sniff. They’ll also get plenty of belly rubs.

Pet care experience

I've taken care of dogs since I was 14. From checking up on and walking my neighbors' dogs, to bathing, walking, and driving my dog around to vet visits.

David did a great job (confidently) walking my large dog with a prey drive. He went above an beyond by sending picture updates, taking extra time to walk her in a park, and refilled her treat toy after the walk. I already rebooked another walk and plan on booking more.

I have had the pleasure of witnessing firsthand the abundance of love and care that David provides to all animals big and small. David is responsible and attentive, and I have entrusted him with the care of my animals with total confidence. Any animal would be lucky to have David care for them!!!

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.
