Pet care experience

Top notch care and fun for your dog

Hey! I’m a stay at home Dad who gets to spend the majority of my day at the house. I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs. My number one focus is proving a safe environment for your pet during their entire stay with us. I have a great understanding of how to make your pet as comfortable as possible. I provide at least one walk per day along with our route distance and GPS info. Access to the yard is given at all the times through out the day until late at night. Your pet will have ton of fun and plenty of activity. I provide many updates and pictures everyday. Our backyard has a lot of space to run and our fence is in good condition. I’m always aware when they are outside and monitor their activity to make sure they are behaving themselves and being safe! Our beloved Labrador Clyde unfortunately passed after 11 incredible years of life in 2024 and we miss him every single day. We feel fortune to provide dog care to our community and love building relationships with our clients. I specialize in giving your pup exactly what they need and want. I’m always clued in on their behavior in order to best support them. Lastly, the safety of our children is most important to us and we normally require a meet and greet before your pets first stay with us. This is also a good time for them to get acquainted with us as well as the space where they will be staying. We look forward to meeting you and your pet!

We’ve been using Rover for years and he is the best! Always friendly and prompt, and he goes out of his way to send regular updates. Knowing our dogs are with him gives us peace of mind and makes traveling far less stressful.

Another great stay with David! He was kind enough to accommodate our pup last minute. We got lots of updates with photos and it was clear that ally had a great time and was well cared for. David and his family are great!

David and his family are taking great care of my dog during every visit. Prince loves going, and the updates and pictures I receive frequently from David make it much easier for me to be away from Prince when travel or work require it.

Another great stay with David and his fam. We are thrilled we found someone who makes us feel completely at ease when we’re away from the pups. David is our go-to for as long as he will watch our crazy doggos. We cannot recommend him enough!

David is an amazing sitter. He provided photos daily of my dog (including GPS of his walks!) and responded quickly to any messages I sent. David makes sure that your dog is comfortable and that all his/her needs are met! Disco loved his stay at David’s and enjoyed hanging out with him, his kids and dog, Clyde - he is exhausted from having so much fun! It was so nice to know that Disco was so well taken care of while we were gone - I will absolutely use David again the next time we are out of town.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide constant care to any dogs at our house. I truly do care about the pups we watch and can’t help but monitor their mood, behavior, habits, and anything that could be causing them stress. I am always looking to remedy the situation if a dog is feeling uncomfortable and strive to make their stay enjoyable for them.

A typical day

We have a 12 acre wooded historic cemetery across the street, where I take the dogs everyday. We love taking walks in the morning and evening, as well as night walks! Spend a lot of time outside. Dogs can go out whenever they want.

We always want to understand how you dog acts around children and if they have any aggressive behaviors. Its always helpful to provide your dog’s bed or blanket they are used to, to give them an area of the house they feel is their own space.
