Pet care experience
Reliable young environmental professional in Somerville, MA area. I formerly worked in wildlife conservation and have experience working with animals of a wide variety of personalities, schedules, and abilities/disabilities. I am easily adaptable and happy to work with you and your dog's needs. I have experience caring for dogs in extended-stay and housesitting situations, as well. I am happy to provide dog walking services, drop in calls, local house sitting, and more. I love getting to know the unique personality of each pup I meet and look forward to working with you!
Reviews
Doug was terrific. One of our dogs is diabetic and needs injections. He was great with her. He was on time for every visit and very capable. The dogs loved him. They still go to the front door to look for him. Highly recommend.
Douglas was wonderful! My dog and three cats loved him... even the prickly, badass Tortoiseshell matriarch cat who usually doesn't like anyone. He is extremely caring, very responsible and clearly someone who loves animals. They respond to him in kind. I would highly recommend him. It was great to come home to happy and contented animals. It was clear that they responded well to him, and he was wonderful with them.
Well it's not like Douglas needs my Testimonial to be qualified to be a Rover Dog Caregiver the fact is that Rover needs Douglas because he is the most Loving,caring,responsible,,considerate,animal loving human on this planet! That is the simple truth and my Dog is "Waging her Tail" Doug K.
Doug grew up with pets and was responsible for their care. He is one of the most caring young men you’ll ever have taking care of your furry friends. He’s helped me pet sit for years. You can trust and count on him to go beyond what is expected! 5 ⭐️ ?

Information Douglas K. would like to know about your pet
Before sitting for a family, I would like to know the following: 1. Does your pup have any allergies I should be aware of? 2. Is your pup on any medication that requires special attention? 3. In order to fully respect your home, I would like to know if you allow your pup on furniture.
A typical day
I am able to provide walks varying in intensity due to each individual dog's needs. As requested, I will dedicate time to playing fetch and practicing your pup's favorite tricks! I have a dog-friendly car so I can provide transport to meet or drop off at a dog park if requested, as well.
