Experienced Dog Loving Friend

Pet care experience

Dog lover, student athlete at Southern Oregon University (lacrosse), I work as a handyman, husband and friend to all. Dog/House sat many times, been raised around dogs and cats. Why I love dog sitting: As long as I can remember I have loved man's best friend. I have been (jokingly) called an "animal whisperer" by family and friends as I seem to get along with every animal I come in contact with. My wife and I hope to get a dog as soon as we graduate from school so dog sitting is the next best thing in the mean time.

Dirk sent us pictures throughout our stay and Beau looked very happy! House was in great condition when we got back.

Dirk was fantastic and super accommodating, especially considering the fact that there was an issue with the key when he first arrived. He managed to get a working key immediately and was in the house right away. The dogs seemed to really like him and seemed very happy upon arriving back home. He kept us updated multiple times a day with pictures, which put us at ease seeing how happy they were. He left the house as clean as it was when we left. Will definitely be requesting him when we need Rover services in the future!

Dirk and Courtney were amazing. We were able to travel with no worries leaving our pup in their hands. They gave us multiple updates a day with pictures. When we got home our house was spotless and our dog was doing great! I will deff. rebook with them again to watch our dog!

Dirk and Courtney are awesome. I'm a "repeat booker" and can only say good things about them. I get updates frequently (and pics ☺ ) and my pups are well taken care off. Can only recommend.... But then maybe I should not so there will be no schedule conflicts when I need them. ?
