Pet care experience
I've been taking care of dogs since I was 8 years old and have been around dogs of all different shapes and sizes. From fostering dogs, to volunteering in training dogs to owning dogs my whole life, I'd like to think I am fairly versed when it comes to dogs and taking care of them. I also have a cat and thus am not a stranger to them either. The level and type of care for your pets is totally up to you and I will follow any and all instructions given to me. I am a very active individual, so walks are up my alley and I have no problem with larger dogs that can be a bit more challenging to walk.
Reviews
David was easy to communicate with, sent updates of Izzy and was a great caretaking for Izzy while we were gone for the weekend. I highly recommend David!

Safety, trust & environment
Instead of telling you how I'd care for pets in your home, feel free to tell me how you'd like them cared for. I have two dogs of my own that I utilize Rover for and thus am well aware of the client/sitter preferences. Note: my animals will remain separate from yours.

Information David T. would like to know about your pet
My own dogs have a routine, thus I am no stranger to following instructions/care guides based on your animal's specific needs. Thus, I would love to know about their routine and what they typically expect when you take care of them. I'd also like to know what makes them scared or uncomfortable and what are things you know I should avoid doing or other things I need to keep into special account when taking care of your animal. If dog boarding with me, I need to know if your dog is crate trained as well. While I will be present with your animal, if boarded or staying with me during the day, there may be times when I am not with the dog. Thus, please note, high separation anxiety or dogs that do not do well alone due to certain behaviors may not be the best fit. This is only because I cannot guarantee I will be physically with your dog the whole visit.
A typical day
Whether it be sitting on the couch with your animal, playing with them with their favorite toy or just giving them lots of affection, fun activities is always a part of my time with your animal(s). I also know each animal is different and will go with the flow of their energy/desires when I am with them. For dog boarding, it is best if the dog is crate trained and does well in a crate. While your dog will not remain in their crate while with me, there will be some crate time if staying overnight or long durations during the day.

Availability
I work full-time as a project manager and work from home as a result. With that said, my schedule is typically before 8:30a and after 5p, but I can make some exceptions depending and if it's scheduled in advance. I also have weekend availability. I have two pit-mixes and a cat that I care for at home and give lots of walks/attention to as well. My animals will remain separate however from yours, so no worries at all there!
