Pet care experience

Full Time Dogsitter & Animal Lover

I grew up in a house where animals are just another member of the family! I've cared for pets for as along as I can remember, as my grandparents used to have 13 cats, 6 dogs, and 2 horses that I would regularly care for in addition to my own.

Garrett was great! The dogs seemed to really like him and he was really good at communicating with us durning the drop in.

Garrett stayed at my home with my dogs and did a fantastic job with them! I came home to a clean house and he even changed the bedding as we returned very late. I would definitely hire him again for dog sitting!

Garrett is amazing and always takes wonderful care of all of our pets. Our high energy husky and our timid rescue both get what they need when he stays with them. We never worry when Garrett is staying and are able to truly enjoy the time we have taken away knowing our home is well taken care of.

Garrett was amazing! Needing to book last minute over the holidays when another sitter cancelled he came through for us. We have struggled to find sitters to stay at the home with our two dogs and two cats and Garrett is a dream come true. He worked remotely from our home so the dogs could stick to their normal routine, and when we came home they were very relaxed and had no anxiety from our trip. Garrett also embraced and worked with our dogs’ quirks, (we have a very energetic husky and a rescue who is still learning she’s in a safe space), and he spent time making sure each of them was comfortable and well taken care of. After several attempts to find an honest and committed sitter, we have definitely found that in Garrett and will be rebooking with him for our upcoming trips!

Garrett was great! Super communicative and easy to work with, and he took great care of our dog while we were out of town for a week. We will definitely be reaching out to him again in the future!

Garrett is such a caring and compassionate person. He is very energetic and that was what Gunner needed! They played a lot of ball! The cats warmed up to him and by the pictures he sent all were quite comfortable with him. I will book with him again.

Schedule

My schedule is highly flexible so I can accommodate whatever your animal needs! I work remotely and love frequent walks/runs/hikes, to which your dog is always a welcome companion. For older animals (or just those that prefer more snuggles/playtime than hikes) I am always able to work or watch movies with your pup in your home and the environment that they are comfortable in.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs

Garrett can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Let me know your dog's routine, feeding habits, medications, and any skills they are learning! I love to work training into the daily routine, whether it is just sit/stay obedience or more advanced skills your dog is working on!
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.
