Dean did an amazing job with our girl over the 4th of July weekend. We reached out to him shortly before our trip and he was able to not only accommodate our requests, but surpass what we expected. He comforted our girls during fireworks, loved on them for many hours each day, and made sure they were safe and happy! Would highly recommend Dean & his services.

Dean was professional, friendly, and took wonderful care of our dogs. One of our dogs had some tummy issues while we’re were away and he didn’t shy away from cleaning up after her. Truly fantastic service! Will rebook again the next time we need a sitter. Dean was communicative daily and provided photos as well.

Felt stressed moving to my new home and had to quickly find a new sitter for my Lab girl until I got on Rover and found Dean. He was absolutely wonderful with Jules and I felt truly blessed to find him for my girl. Thank so much!

Dean did a great job taking care of my Rottie. He gave her lots of attention, sent updates and photos and did everything exactly how we asked him to. He is also super nice. Recommend you hire Dean to care for your pets
