I love dogs more than most people
Pet care experience
I have experience dog sitting various breeds of all shapes and sizes. As a result, I am already familiar with, Chihuahuas, Shih Tzu’s, Mini Pinschers, Chipin’s, Terriers, and Great Danes. I treat each and every dog with genuine care and affection as if it was my own.
Reviews
Eddie has been wonderful with all our dogs. He has taken our dog 23 hours to move to Florida within one hour he had to stop to take him out. Eddie is compassionate, patient and loving. I have handed over (sadly) my dog to him because I knew he was safe, comforted and loved. Eddie is attentive to the point of obsessive with caring for our dog and tending to his needs: bathing, walking, cuddling. I am proud of my son and would trust him implicitly. Eddie has a love for dogs beyond a chore. Eddie is dedicated and commited. I have trusted him my third love- my first 2 being my children. Annie Sweeney
My son, Eddie struggled with asking his Dad to write a testimonial for Rover thinking I'd have a biased opinion or recommendation. And while that may be true in some aspects, I've watched Eddie care for his dogs throughout his life. He has always been a compassionate, sensitive personality when it comes to animals in general, but since he's been surrounded by dogs (mostly rescues of many different breeds) he has put the dog's needs ahead of his own. Whether it's taking care of a medical issue the dog experienced, walking the dog at all hours, cleaning up accidents during housebreaking, he has a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of pets and an intuition into behaviors dogs exhibit when they are frightened by a thunderstorm, hungry, sick or just looking for some extra attention. He's responsible, intelligent and accountable, and would exercise these traits in a role with Rover. He also knows how to exercise discretion when dealing with customer information....he has many experiences dog-sitting and dog walking throughout the years for family and friends, never looking for compensation other than the opportunity to spend time with the dogs and care for them. A job at Rover would be a simple transition for him, please give him the appropriate consideration. Respectfully, Ed S
About Eddie S.
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
My dog was a rescue and was never trained, So I am still in the process of cage training him right now, which in my experience is the most effective way to train small and disobedient dogs. Speaking for most dogs that are obedient, I always follow the exact routine, rules, and guidelines that are specified by each and every dog owner.
Information Eddie S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any particular allergies to certain foods, liquids, and even seasonal allergies outside, along with anything else that could possibly affect their health and overall well-being!
A typical day
Whether we go for a walk, play with toys, play cat and mouse, head to the dog park, or try to learn a new trick, there is never a dull moment when I am with a pup. Each dog is unique and has certain qualities which I love. So, whenever I am taking care of and watching dogs, I’m always trying to learn something new about them to possibly make my next visit even more fun.

Availability
I am extremely flexible and available 7 days a week, everyday, starting at 7am every morning. My struggle to find any type of work since moving to Florida has been an absolute disaster. So, the moment I came across Rover, I instantly became so happy and excited. To be able to benefit financially just by watching, taking care, and having fun with dogs is a dream. On top of that, I can manage my own hours and accommodate my schedule based around my dog, which is absolutely vital to me. My pup as precious as he is, has horrible separation anxiety and is extremely high maintenance, I feel so guilty just leaving him alone for a few hours.
