Dog is life
Pet care experience
I’ve been an animal lover since I was a kid. From pugs to big mutts, I’ve had experience with a wide variety of dogs and love them all! Cats too!
Reviews
Derek was much appreciated! Our little Chesney did great with him. This was our dog’s first time being left at home, and not go to a kennel, while we vacationed. It was encouraging to return home and not have Chesney so stressed that he sleeps for 3 days. He had kept his normal schedule and was his usual “chill” self when we returned. Chesney was very comfortable with Derek, and for that we are very grateful!
Derek is amazing with our girl! He plays with her and sends updates. We feel so confident when he stays at our home while we are away. We highly recommend him!!
Derek is great with our pup Smooch!! He is very responsive and sends pictures and updates while we are away. We feel very confident when he is with her that she's getting the best care!!
Derek is seriously the kindest and best dog sitter I have ever met. I have a loving but very very energetic puppy that gets nervous when I leave town, but I have never felt more confident that I was leaving her in good hands. Derek is my go-to from now on!

Safety, trust & environment
I have an unfenced back yard with a runner and a great park and trail within walking distance. I have a great understanding of the importance of routine. I’m skilled in giving oral medications and am willing to follow any specific guidelines you have for your pet(s). I’d love meet and greet before we book to ensure clear communication and comfort before booking. If you are a first timer to Rover, ask me for a referral code to get $20 off!

Information Derek J. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs that I may not be qualified for. If they have any allergies, injuries or sore areas, if they have spots they don’t like to be pet or scratched!
A typical day
I live near multiple trails and parks and could take dogs for as long or short of a walk as needed. There is also a dog park located at the park near my home if that is something that your dog enjoys!

Availability
I’m currently schooling from home, so I have extra time to play with doggos! My schedule is very flexible right now as I can do my studies anywhere, so I can really work around what’s best for you.
