Safety, trust & environment

I will not be able to house your dog where I live because I am renting at the moment but I would love to stop by your home to help out. I take all of your instructions and directions very seriously and will respect your home and pet as if they were my own.

Information Griffin C. would like to know about your pet

It's important to know any tips you have on interacting with your dog. Their personalities are as diverse as humans! So if they have any fears, physical limitations, or triggers that information is all very helpful. Also, what do they enjoy? Knowing this ahead of time will allow me to give them the best experience possible.

A typical day

Although I will take your dog on any walk you recommend, I personally love to take advantage of state parks. My wife and I love to hike the beautiful parks of CT and whether your dog is up for a full hike or a little walk around the paved areas, there is always tons of mental stimulation involved. I know how important walking is to dogs and so I make a point to follow them and what they want to do. My walks with my own dog involve tons of sniffing and exploring.

Pet care experience

I grew up in a house with 7 dogs! I've cared for dogs and cats for my entire childhood and would love to help take care of your furry friend. Currently, I have my own 3-year-old black lab so I know how to engage big dogs with loads of energy.

I feel so fortunate to have found Griffin on the Rover website. First time I have ever had to use someone to watch any of my dogs in 36 years, so it was a huge decision that I did not take lightly. From the pre-visit I knew he would be great. Griffin took care of Willow like she was his own. He was so caring & compassionate & knew what she needed and when she needed it. I really feel he went way above and beyond my wishes for her well-being, being a senior dog of 14.10 yrs. She ate wonderfully and took her meds orally for him without any issues, which meant she was happy, strong and healthy while we were away for the week. We could not be more pleased with Griffin’s extraordinary care and commitment to our little Willow. We will not hesitate to ask specifically for him in the future, if the need ever arises again. Thank you Rover, for including Griffin on your staff.

Griffin loves animals and he’s super responsible! He’s watched my dogs when I’ve gone away. I am always able to enjoy myself more fully when I know that Griffin is taking care of my pets. My animals get really excited when they see him! Thats the best testimony!
