K-12 Teacher & Dog + Cat Parent

Pet care experience

I am a dog and cat parent, and I am a middle school science teacher who is looking to make more money in a flexible way. In addition to playing a lot of fetch, my experiences include pet sitting, fostering, and owning both easy-going & challenging/reactive dogs and cats of all sizes.

We cannot say enough good things about Dustyn! We were hesitant to board our big puppy in a traditional facility and a little nervous about using Rover but we were truly ecstatic about the experience! Dustyn was incredibly good with our dog and very intentional to care for him and make him feel at home while we were away. Thanks so much Dustyn!!

Dustyn took care of our cat and dog and did a wonderful job! He’s clearly a great communicator and loves animals. I’d absolutely recommend him!

Dustyn is incredibly fantastic with animals - large dogs, small dogs, and cats alike. I have a people reactive dog who takes sometimes up to months of exposure to a person to become comfortable with them, and through much patience and persistence Dustyn became one of my pup's most trusted and loved companions. I highly recommend entrusting Dustyn with the care of your creatures, knowing that he'll go above and beyond to mentally engage, respect, exercise and attend to the needs of whatever animal he's caring for. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

Dustyn is great, our dog and cat love him! He communicated well ahead of time, sent pictures to keep me updated, and gave them all the attention they needed. I will definitely ask him back.
