Pet care experience

Hey! I love dogs, hiking, & food!

Hey! I’m an absolute dog lover with extensive knowledge of various dog breeds. I’ve been dog sitting for many years, both on Rover and for friends and family - I grew up with dogs of all different breeds and sizes so I’m comfortable with any pup! I live in a spacious home with a fenced in yard perfect for playtime! I also live in an ideal neighborhood for long walks at anytime of the day. My retired parents live with me so your dog will always have the attention and care they deserve from 1-3 loving caregivers, especially since I also work from home! Your furry friend will be in great hands and will enjoy a safe, fun, and nurturing environment! I can’t wait to take care of your dog!

We left our dog Beau with Gonzo for five days while we were on vacation. He was very quick to respond during the booking process and even sent a couple photos to update us on how he was doing. It’s great to know that Beau was in great care while we were away.

Our dog Bella stay was perfect with gonzo and his family. They took such amazing care of her and loved getting the pictures of how she was doing while we were away. Thank you Gonzo and looking forward to the next stay!

We left our two dogs with Gonzo for 10 days, and we’re so glad we did. He managed them really well and kept them comfortable and safe throughout their stay. It was also a big relief knowing his family was present at home

Biscuit looks like she had a great time in Gonzos care. Gonzo has been very communicative and flexible. Definitely recommended and would book again.

Great experience for me as an owner and my dog, i would highly recomend Gonzo. It was the first time for Fifa (13 month) to board, and I was very anxious about it. It went great, and I will be boarding her with Gonzo again in December when we go on vacation. She seemed to be happy with her stay, and I was afraid that she will be stressed spending a night somewhere else. When I picked her up, she looked relaxed and happy. Gonzo was great at communicating, responded promptly and flexible with setting up first overnight, as i had a very busy week at work, but wanted to do a trail run asap in case i would need to look for other options. He also was patient with my anxiety, as it was the first time i used rover or boarded my dog. When we dropped Fifa off he seemed to be comfortable with her right away, had a large fenced yard for her to run (dog proffed) and she was allowed to roam free around the house. He sent pictures and responded to questions i had. She is a high energy dog and gets very excited, it did not bother him. He asked questions regarding her sleep and food preferences. Also, i was happy with being able to see the home and backyard where she was staying, as some of the sitters on rover sepecify that they dont allow owners inside the house, and that was a concern of mine. Overall it was a great experience and we are super happy with Gonzo, and booked her stay in December. Thank you!
