Pet care experience
Convenient pet care located in the heart of the Galena Territory! Whether you’re here for a weekend or here for a lifetime, you can expect expert, loving care for your furry friends. Caring and active! Happy to run with your dogs or just snuggle all day. Always willing to match your dog’s energy and reinforce their training. I’ve been taking care of dogs for more than 5 years through Rover and longer with my own rescues. Currently my house is pet free and open for boarding!
Reviews
Let me start off by saying this is our first time using Rover, and we are very lucky to have found Doug. You would be very, very lucky to have him work for you. He is very smart, very professional, and trustworthy. He did an amazing job taking care of our cat while we were on vacation. He made us feel very happy sending us pictures of him playing with our cats Murphy and Carol ? And always checked in. The pictures made us very comfertable and happy and let us focus on our vacation. He also watered my plants and kept the litter box clean. He also responded in a very timely manner with anything we needed. I would highly recommend Doug.
Very satisfied! Doug was great communicating with me through the time I requested, when he was walking bai, and after it was over. I would love to book again!
Doug was great! He's been able to stop by and let my five dogs out when no one else is available to do so. He works around his work schedule and is sure to text me every time he arrives and leaves. He even takes my difficult to handle German Shepherd out for walks to knock down his energy and sends me a few pictures of him along the way! Whenever he comes by, my dogs are always happy, healthy, and well tired out by the time anyone comes home.
