Offering a helping hand!

Hi there, my name is Don and I am an experienced dog owner looking to help families in need of a dog sitter or walker. I figured this would be the best way for me to meet new dogs all the while helping people out! I am able to work from home several days of the week and my hours are quite flexible so I am happy to come up with a schedule that's best for you and your pet. At home, I stay in 1 bedroom condo which would be perfect size to house up to 2 dogs for short or long term. I work with animals at my profession so I am comfortable distributing medication, tending to elderly dogs, and of course grooming! Feel free to message me with any questions, and I look forward to meeting you and your fury friend! -Don

House Sitting • Jun 06, 2022

Don watched our two dogs while we were out of town for a week and did a lovely job! He was highly communicative before and during the stay and took the pups for multiple walks a day. Both the dogs were happy and relaxed when we got home. As a bonus, he took care of my plants and we returned to a spotless home. We've struggled to find a reliable, trustworthy dog sitter and feel lucky to have found Don!

Don was perfect! He did drop in visits on our two dogs, took them on walks, and was super responsive to messages. Would book again in a heartbeat.

Don was fantastic with my 9-month old puppy. He is reliable and prompt for the drop in visits. I could tell during the meet & great that my pup already liked him. He fed, walked and even did some training (loose leash walking, stay and come) which was very appreciated. Highly recommend!

Don took great care of our pups and gave us regular updates when we were away for the weekend. Kenzo & Yuna had a great time. Thank you Don !!

Don was a perfect sitter! My dachshund, Romeo, had a great time with him and I don’t think he wanted to leave. This was my first time using Rover and Don made me feel super comfortable and sent frequent video/picture updates. Would definitely recommend him to watch your pet!
