I work only part time, remote and in the office. My schedule is very flexible and I love to be outside in any weather. I am focused on dogs, but if you have some other unique friend, I'm willing to discuss options so not pet is left behind!

Information EUGENE M. would like to know about your pet

The more info you can provide about special needs for your dog, the less we have to figure out in person on our own. Its less stressful for the dog and the owners to have the background.

A typical day

I live in Wood River Junction, RI - but am regularly in the Newport area also. I regularly walk Cliff Walk, the Beaches, Fort Adams, and the numerous Aquidneck Land Dog Parks, and weekend Camping trips!

Pet care experience

I've had pets of all types from Agway to Petco and beyond since I was 12 years old. My bond seems to be the strongest with dogs, but some say I have a gift with all animals. I recently cared for my best friend Salty for 16 years, and he would want me to share my lessons learned with other deserving pups!

Eugene was a very communicative and caring sitter. It was clear that he loves dogs and made us feel good about leaving our pup for the first time with a stranger. We would happily have him watch Zuzu again.

Eugene is an excellent dog sitter! He took my energetic lab on long walks in the forest and beach; she had a great time. Eugene provided updates throughout the weekend and was easy to communicate with. Would definitely book again.

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.
