Caring, Detail-Oriented, Dog Lover

Pet care experience

Hi there, my name is Fred and I am a caring, responsible, mature pet lover. I am also a proud German Shepherd pet parent. I am a travel writer and when I'm not travelling, I am home all day writing and working. I have a lot of fun with my dog and often dog-sit for friends' doggies. Seeing my dog interact with and enjoy spending time with other dogs made me want to become a Rover pet sitter. We have also been using the service to board our dog, so I see how it works and how helpful it is. We live in Palm Desert just outside Palm Springs. I have had dogs all my life since I was a little kid and am fascinated with their intelligence and ability to be trained. I treat my dog (and dogs in my care) like my child (I don't have kids) as far as food, safety and other essential issues go.

Frederick was clearly very caring and thoughtful. He kept me updated on how my dog was doing and what they were doing through out the day. Pictures as well. Frederick made everything incredibly easy and I would highly recommend his services.

Fred Sherman is a wonderfully caring, responsible pet parent who really treats our German Shepherd like his son. He is always thinking of the dog's wants and needs first, before his own. I also see Fred take care of my friend's dogs when we pet sit for them, especially a tiny Teacup Yorkie named Jerry. Before we got our dog, we would dog sit for Jerry and I was always impressed with how careful Fred was with him, again always thinking about what the dog wanted or needed at all times. Fred is also a natural dog-person, he instantly gets along with all dogs and has a very calm, intelligent approach with them. All dogs and cats seem to love him, which I think is an important factor in deciding on a pet sitter.
