Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets as if they were my own. I believe that the social needs of pets are just as important as their physical needs.

Information Edward S. would like to know about your pet

I prefer to do a "meet and greet" but I realize that is not always possible, so I am willing to do cold call visits for well-socialized, and non-aggressive dogs. I am interested in your dogs' health issues, behavioral issues, or idiosyncrasies. It is also helpful to know about their history, behavior toward other dogs (in general), and breed characteristics.

A typical day

I like to create a routine for repeat customers, because dogs respond well to that. I like to walk them in familiar settings, or follow the same route. I like to play traditional dog games like fetch, keep away, and tug of war. My personal philosophy is that as social creatures, dogs require human interaction and socialization as much as they need food and water.

Experienced and Established Walker

Pet care experience

I am a Magna Cum Laude graduate of Collin College with an Associate of Arts in Business, and an Associate of Arts in General Studies. I have over 12 years experience with many different sizes and breeds of dogs. Although I am not an expert, I am highly knowledgeable and my observations are usually correct. I value customers who understand that there is an enormous qualitative difference regarding this type of service.

Always so reliable and flexible. Takes my dog on the best walks every time and always gives her her treats afterwards. She loves this time of the day!

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.
