Animal lover from Farm to Home pets

Pet care experience

I love just about all animals. I have been helping sitting and caring for friends and neighbor's pets since I was 14. I also am an experienced farmer working with all kinds of farm animals(sheep, goat, ducks, chickens, cattle, horses, and farm dogs).

I cannot say enough amazing things about DJ… he is the absolute best, went above and beyond when watching my dog over a long weekend. Very communicative, very professional, and possesses a truly impressive range of knowledge about animal behavior. He will truly care for your pet like they are his own! 100% recommend, he is the best!

We were very comforted knowing our pets would be in good hands under DJ’s care. It was especially reassuring that he had previous farming experience. We were immediately impressed by his pleasant and caring approach to our animals. He was very respectful of our home and fulfilled all obligations completely. Would definitely rehire.

This was my first time using Rover and D.J. made the experience a breeze. I enjoyed how kind and friendly he was at our meet and greet and he provided so many updates and pictures while checking in on our baby. He even went way above and beyond by offering to make an additional visit to make sure our boy was well loved. Any time I need a rover I will be rebooking D.J. 10/10 recommend!!! Thank you so much D.J.

Safety, trust & environment

I always strive for safety 1st and be clean and organized in whatever care I provide. I personally don't use chemicals around my pets or myself. I also lean on professional vets or trainers for advice in case of situations I may not be familiar with.

Information D.J. B. would like to know about your pet

Routines and consistencies are very important. A dog's behavior is very dependent on what activities, food, environment, and schedules they are used to. Whatever the consistent lifestyle they have, I aim to maintain so that they feel safe and have few to no behavioral changes.

A typical day

I love to learn about the each dog and see what stimulates them. If they are walker and searchers or if they a chasers and ball catchers. Occasionally you have dogs that are just cuddlers. So I try to cater activities to what each dog enjoys and is accustomed to.
