Availability

currently work from home, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and dedicate plenty of time to animal care and attention throughout the day. Pet care is naturally built into my daily routine, and I enjoy maintaining a structured schedule to ensure animals receive consistent care, exercise, and companionship. I have four personal dogs and regularly spend time finding new walking trails, parks, and outdoor areas to take my pack on adventures and exercise outings. Staying active with my dogs is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and trust are extremely important to me when caring for pets, whether in my own home or in a client’s home. Growing up in a family-owned animal hospital and working as a Veterinary Assistant taught me how to properly handle animals, recognize behavioral changes, and maintain clean, safe, and stress-free environments for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I am very organized and dependable, so I like to keep pets on their normal routines as much as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications, playtime, and rest. I also make sure pets always have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention and exercise throughout the day. Because I work from home, I have a flexible schedule and am able to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and care. I have four dogs of my own, so I understand the importance of patience, safety, and treating every animal like family. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks and exploring new trails and outdoor spaces to keep them active and engaged. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space, carefully follow all instructions, and prioritize communication by providing updates and photos so owners feel comfortable and informed while they are away.

Information Dominik G. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for a pet, I like to know their routine, energy level, temperament, and any special needs. It’s important for me to know how they interact with other dogs, any allergies or medications, feeding schedules, favorite activities, and anything that helps them feel comfortable and safe. I want every pet to feel at home and cared for just like my own.

A typical day

A typical day includes lots of outdoor time, walks, playtime, and attention. Since I have high-energy dogs of my own, I’m constantly active — going on walks, exploring trails, playing fetch, and keeping dogs mentally stimulated with toys and enrichment activities. Rover pets would be included in my daily routine based on their comfort level and energy. I also make sure there’s plenty of downtime, cuddles, treats, and a calm environment so every pet feels safe, happy, and part of the pack.

Experienced pet care

Pet care experience

Growing up in a family-owned animal hospital, I developed a strong passion for animal care from an early age and gained hands-on experience working with a wide variety of species. I have personally cared for four dogs and a rabbit, giving me a deep understanding of daily pet care, responsibility, and animal behavior. In addition to personal experience, I worked as a Veterinary Assistant at an animal hospital and shelter throughout my senior year of high school and during my freshman and sophomore years of college. In this role, I assisted with patient care, monitored animals, maintained clean and safe environments, and supported veterinarians and staff with daily operations. I also volunteer at a horse ranch during my free time, where I assist with animal care and ranch responsibilities. My background has allowed me to become comfortable working with animals of all sizes and temperaments while developing strong compassion, communication, and caregiving skills.

Dominik was an asset for several days with our two dogs. He kept us informed and provided awesome pictures. Will definitely book with him again!

There aren’t enough stars to give!!! I was desperate last minute for someone to care for my child and fur baby and I got a response within five minutes, I got offers to help and asked questions like what else can I do for you, it was absolutely a wonderful first exposure to anyone that I booked on Rover. It’s not this day. I haven’t had some really good Rover friends that help me with her but his genuineness and kindness and ability to be flexible on short notice made him a lifesaver for me.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
