My dog was my best man

Pet care experience

Hello! I'm Derek, a Texas transplant who has been blessed with the opportunity to live in OKC courtesy of the Air Force. In my spare time I enjoy exercising, reading, golfing, fishing, and of course pampering my 4 yr old corgi, Frank. Lately he has been requesting other friends to play with, hence why we are now on Rover! I grew up with dogs and have developed a special kinship with all ages and breeds. During your pet's stay, they will enjoy frequent walks, trips to the dog park, and maybe even enjoy a car ride with the windows down. Who knows?? It might get crazy! Frank gets along with all breeds and is eager to make some new dog buddies. We look forward to meeting you and your furry friend!

Derek is awesome! He took great care of our puppy Louie and sent picture updates each day we were away. It made our trip easier knowing that Louie was having a good time.

Lucy spent another wonderful weekend with Derek, Ashley (who is also a Rover Sitter), and Frank. I received frequent updates on Lucy, and it was evident she was in the best of care. I am confident there is no better Rover Team than Derek and Ashley, as both are very kind, trusting, and dedicated to taking the best care of your dog. I will continue to look to both Derek and Ashley for all future Rover stays. Thank you, once again, for taking excellent care of Lucy! We are very grateful for you and all you do while she is in your care. We look forward to booking you again soon!

Ashley and Derek were awesome watching our big puppy! He came back completely EXHAUSTED from playing so hard which never happens!! If we have to have someone else watch our dog we will use them again!

Traveling through Oklahoma, we used Derek's services when we needed a place for the dog to play for a day while visiting the local theme park. He was very professional, responsive and accommodating! Our dog seemed so happy after staying with Derek and playing with Derek's dog Frank. She was in no hurry to leave. She was a bit worn out after the visit but seemed very happy. Derek sent an adorable photo while I was away of the two of dogs playing and kept me updated on any adorable or concerning news. I will definitely use Derek again if in need of a dog sitter in Oklahoma and highly recommend him!
