Highlights
Pet care experience
14 Years Caring for Pets!
I've been around dogs for as long as I can remember, with over 14 years of experience loving and caring for them. My family has been fostering and rehabilitating pets for more than 7 years, and my sister is even training to be a veterinarian! Whether your dog loves a good run or prefers a leisurely walk, I’m up for both. I’m comfortable with all breeds and personalities – dogs just seem to love me, and the feeling is absolutely mutual. As a student at UVA, I’m flexible and dedicated to making sure your pup gets the attention and care they deserve. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend soon!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping the environment as familiar and comfortable for your dog as possible. I follow any specific instructions you provide, such as feeding schedules, exercise routines, or any special care needs your dog may have. I make sure to spend quality time playing, walking, or running with your dog to ensure they stay happy and healthy while you're away.
Ratings and reviews
He did a great job taking care of my two cats. I really appreciate his prompt communication and the time he took to play with my cats.


Dhruv was great! He was very communicative about our 2 (sometimes challenging) doggos and very invested in making sure they were being well taken care of. He sent photos and updates daily and we were able to relax knowing our pets were in good hands. Thanks so much Dhruv!


We very much appreciated the daily communication and photos from Dhruv!
Dhruv was very responsive, professional, and I'm confident my cat, Phrank, agrees!

Dhruv was great with our fish and guinea pigs! He kept their enclosures clean and was prompt to respond. Will definitely be rebooking!
Dhruv did a great job! He was very gentle & patient with our goldendoodle (who can be shy and take a while to warm up to people). He was very willing to stop by our house beforehand to meet Arnie and go over his routine. Dhruv took good care of our home & was also great at keeping us updated and sending along lots of pictures. Thank you, Dhruv!

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially with my active lifestyle. I love spending time outdoors, so walks and runs with dogs are a perfect match. Whether it's a quick stroll between classes or longer walks on weekends, I always find time to give dogs the attention they need.
