Pet care experience

Your dog will be well cared for and loved and will be returned with a smile on it's face. I have had cats & dogs, sometimes at the same time, so I can handle any situation you may need from me. I can get your dog to and from vet or grooming appointments while you are at work. I will have them as a guest during the day or overnight at my house. I can help you with training if they are in a program or if you don't always have time to train them yourself. I will give them the best care if you need to be out of town for vacation or work. I am available 24/7 (retired).

Doug took such good care of our 3 dogs while we were out of town. He welcomed them into his home just like they were one of his own. Our elderly dog was very comfortable there. His daily updates and videos were wonderful. The updates helped us relax and know our fur babies were well cared for while we were away. Highly recommend and we will be booking with him again.

Doug was AMAZING with our dog Bella! I was very nervous to leave her as she's almost 10 years old and a bit shy. He sent updates, pictures, and videos, which put us at ease. She enjoyed the other dogs at the house and the big fenced in backyard. We will definitely be using Doug again!

Doug is an awesome caretaker! He took wonderful care of our dog “Jade”. While gone he sent many photos, videos, along with updates on how she was doing, her activities, and her relaxing. I will definitely schedule again when we go on our next trip. We HIGHLY recommend booking with Doug!

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.
