Safety, trust & environment

I have my own house with a large, fully fenced yard. There is plenty of room out back for your dog to play and exercise while supervised by me. Your dog will the spend the rest of the time indoors with us. If coming to walk your dog, I will make sure that any water dishes are full when I leave, and can do any other service you require, such as feeding him or putting him back into a crate.

Loving Dog and Cat Care Provider

Pet care experience

I have worked as a dog walker for the past 17 years. I have a passion for pet care and work at it as a full-time job, not as a side gig to make some extra money. I have experience working with all types and sizes of dogs, from chihuahuas to Great Danes, and everything in between. I have also worked with disabled dogs - my previous clients include a blind dog, and one who couldn't use his front legs and had to be carried outside. I can also administer medications as needed. I always take dogs out individually, not as part of a large group, so that they get lots of attention from me, and walk on the route that your prefer. I am comfortable working in any type of weather - as long as your dog wants to go out, I'll be there! In addition to walking, I also offer dog boarding at our house. We have a three-story house with a large, fenced yard for your dog to play in. We will treat them as a temporary member of the family while they stay with us. I also love cats, and offer cat-sitting. When I have walked dogs in households that also have cats, I would often spend several minutes visiting with the cat before the dog walk. I have two cats of my own, and am comfortable doing any type of care for cats, including scooping the litter box.

I cannot recommend Gary enough to anyone new to Rover or the local area. Gary was an excellent communicator, eager to help out, and took amazing care of my two cats. He sent pictures and updates every time he visited and I had full confidence that my cats were getting the care and love they needed while I was away. If I could give 6 stars I would!
