Only one dog at a time! Backyard!

. +100 ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ reviews! . I only take one pup at a time: your dog will have my undivided attention! Ensuring his/her happiness and well-being! . Lots of updates! (Pictures/videos) I didn't like going anywhere that I can't take my dog with me, sometimes I had no other choice sadly. I'm guessing you are here for that same reason, so: First the most important: Your dog will be in a super safe and fun environment. I'll take care and play with your dog like one of my own. My backdoor leads to a fenced backyard so I can take your pup out as often as he/she wants! Do you have any requests but think that's too much to ask? Not at all! You are trusting me with your dog, a member of your family. Please, ask me for anything that will give you peace of mind, I totally understand it and will gladly do it! Want a picture/update of your dog several times a day? You got it! This is my #1 request when I left my dog with a friend! Please any request that you have, just let me know! About me: I'm David and I lived with my dog Fiona until 2025. When I adopted her in 2012 I was almost unable to speak or walk due to Lyme disease. So adopting her back then was a challenge. Such a worth it challenge. My journey to recover my health brought me from Argentina to the US. She was there with me every step of the way, even at the clinic. I cannot be more grateful for her, dogs are simply the kindest and most pure creature in the word. They are the definition of unconditional love. Fiona made me smile every single day. She was always by my side and was always super happy, no matter if it was back then when I couldn't walk and we were living in a tiny apartment or when I got my health back and we were living in this house. She gave me the best 13 years of my life. For 5 years she was the best dog-sister to every dog we cared for since joining Rover. In 2025 she crossed the rainbow. Caring for dogs has been super therapeutic and the best way to honor her. Any questions? Contact me! Send us a message to see if I am a good fit so your dog can stay with me!

Another great experience with David. Pepper is always so excited to visit with David when we are out of town. He spoils her like she was his own. David always sends us pictures and videos showing us all the fun Pepper is having and his communication with texts and email is outstanding. We highly recommend David to take care of your furry kids when you need someone to spoil them like you do.

We’ve had such a wonderful experience with David and couldn’t recommend him more highly! We are repeat bookers and our dog, Noodle, stays with David when we go out of town. He is incredibly kind, reliable, attentive, and always takes such great care of Noodle. I feel completely at ease leaving Noodle with him and know that she is in caring and capable hands. What means the most to me is how much Noodle genuinely enjoys spending time with David. She always has a great time with him, and when she sees him again, she immediately wags her tail and is excited to see him! It’s such a good feeling knowing that she is not only well cared for, but also happy and comfortable while staying with David. David is wonderful with Noodle, and we’re so grateful to have found someone we trust. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a kind, dependable, and caring dog sitter!

David is an amazing pet sitter that I highly recommend to anyone who needs pet care. He takes care of my cat Daisy when I am out of town, and always handles my special instructions with ease and care. I know Daisy is in great hands with David, and he always sends me pics and videos of her while he's hanging out with her. 10/10, no notes!

We've had a wonderful experience with David. He does a great job of keeping us updated on how Penny's doing. It's great to go on vacation and not have to worry because I know she's in excellent hands!

Schedule

I wake up at 7am and can immediately take your dog out to my fenced backyard. I only go to the office a few days a week for 4 hours max, so I basically have the whole day to take your dog on walks or to my backyard and/or play multiple times a day!

Safety, trust & environment

Fenced backyard. I never let the dogs be outside on their own for long periods of time (Texas heat!) and only take one dog at a time. So your dog will get my undivided attention and care!

A typical day

After waking up, I can let your dog go to the backyard so he/she can go potty first thing in the morning (he/she really needs this? I don't know! That's the first thing I do, so why wouldn't he/she?). And then during the day since I mostly work from home (Information technology) we can play and go on walks as often as we want!
