Pet care experience
My significant other (who also calls me the dog whisperer) also has a Rover, we live together so you have double the care! I’ve helped a lot already over the past year with Boarding Rovers she has accepted. I’ve grew up with family and personal pets so there’s never really been a time in my life I haven’t cared for animals. When we got together Meaghan also had a Frenchie named Leidy, but unfortunately we lost her January 2023 at 13. She was the best dog and I was lucky enough to know her the last 4 years or so of her life. Leidy had many health issues including cancer, liver failure, back issues, etc through life and it took a lot of care the keep her striving. Meaghan did most of the caring for Leidy, but I helped and became well versed in Frenchie/senior dog care. Between the both of us we have plenty of experience with young pups, old dogs, and kitties so nothing should overwhelm. If your fur baby needs meds or any special care just include them and I’ll definitely make sure they’re fulfilled! We don’t double book for your own piece of mind. You’ll have the piece of mind knowing that your pet/pets will be the only ones for as long as their stay.
Reviews
Derek was fantastic. He and Meaghan went above and beyond to care for my senior tripawd. He communicated regularly and even picked up on my dog potentially having a UTI. Your dog will be in excellent hands with him.

Derek was phenomenal, I was able to count on him on a last minute request and he was super detailed with taking care of my pup. He went above and beyond with how much care and attention he gave to the care of my pet like if it was his own.
Derek is known as "the dog-whisperer" in our family and friend group, because all dogs love him and he is truly great with any animal! He has helped me care for all of the dogs that I have boarded in our home. He is patient, loving, and gives the best pets. I would recommend him to anyone I know to trust him with their fur baby.
Awesome dog sitter! My dogs love Derek and are always happy to hang with him when I’m away. He is a huge animal lover and really kind and sweet with all animals. Could not recommend him enough!

I’m currently working at my work/home. I’ve recovered from shoulder surgery I had in September. The surgery has not hindered me from doing all of the obligations to care for your animal. I’m fully capable of taking care of one or all of your requests
