Pet care experience

Friendly Animal Enthusiast!

I grew up in a house hold with numerous amounts of pets from the age of 4, my first pet being my chocolate lab to my last pet at age 19 being my tuxedo cat aurora. Needless to say I am very much so an animal lover, and I defiantly have a soft spot in my heart for dogs. To me dogs are more than just pets, they are companions that love you no matter what and deserve all that love and affection back. I am an avid outdoors-man and back when I had my chocolate lab we'd always be out and about. I have never shared a dule moment with any animal, mine or anyone else's. I am more than ecstatic to have the opportunity to further my experience with animals and show each animal caring love they all deserve. I'm a full time student with a part time job, so I'm not in this for the money but more so just for my avid love of animals. My schedule is pretty open for the most parts, so feel free to shoot me a text or call even on days my calendar says I may not be available. No matter who's animal I may watch, take out for a jog, or just keep company, I guarantee your animal will be treated as if they were my own! Each animal will be fed, taken out for exercise or for bathroom and kept under close watch at all times. Thank you for taking time to read up a little bit about me, I look forward to meeting you and your K-9 pals!

David was PERFECT! He loved on my dog and was so intentional. He spent time with her and saw her personality and loved her so well. He also was able to accommodate scheduling changes when our flight got cancelled. We give him our highest regards!! Thanks for taking such wonderful care of Penelope!

David was fantastic with our dogs! He took great care of them and kept us constantly updated with plenty of photos. We appreciated his attentiveness and the peace of mind he provided. Highly recommend! We’ll definitely keep him in mind for next time.

Safety, trust & environment

I make sure that each animal is taken care of individually and given the proper care and attention that is needed regardless of their conditions.

A typical day

I normally take the dogs to my dog park and let them run around if allowed by the owners and then out for a walk or I stay inside on wet days and let the animals run around.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Unspayed females accepted, neutered males only
No females in heat
Crate-trained dogs only
David can host up to 4 pets per night
I need to know about feeding schedules, medications needed or any other important care information. Normally this is given during the meet and greet and shouldn’t ever be an issue.
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.
