Information fernando m. would like to know about your pet

I’m always around dogs and cats! I had them since I was born then growing up and after became an adult. I don’t have one at the moment but I just gave to my little son a little dog and they love each other. I don’t live with them but Im always helping ..

A typical day

I like to take them to the parks like Prospect park , Fort Greene or just walk around the blocks trying to avoid the avenues with more traffic and noise. Walking in the shady side of the street in the summer and the opposite in the winter :)

Fernando is a practiced dog caretaker, very knowledgeable, very responsible, very gentle. He were delighted to have him house-sit our dog. Fernando is an excellent communicator as well, we got frequent updates during our 4 days out of town. He even arranged to find a new friend for our dog! Can recommend!

Fernando is amazing!! I have a large rescue mastiff mix who is a handful and can be reactive so I am always nervous trying to find new people to look after him but Fernando is great with him on walks and for drop in visits. He respects his boundaries and is able to handle any reactivity he has on walks. Recently Fernando watched him when I went away for a few days and I could tell Bubba was tired and happy when I got back. I will continue to make Fernando my go to dog walker and dog sitter in the neighborhood and I am so happy I found him

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.
