Pupsitting w/ the comforts of home!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Howard and I would love to take care of your pup(s)! I have owned and loved all different kinds animals (from turtles to cats to quails to etc.) and would love to be part of your doggie's life! My wife, Jessica, and I have fostered for a local animal shelter before and we enjoyed the experience very much. From that experience, I have learned to adapt to different situations that might arise from taking care of a pup. I am very patient and can try to accommodate any special needs that your pup may require. I recently moved to El Segundo, CA and I currently live with Jessica and our dog, Sadie the Maltipoo. I have a car so transportation will not be a problem. You may choose to either have me come over to watch your pup or have your pup come over to my place. If your pup will be staying with me, there are multiple parks around where i live so your pup will always get his/her needed exercise. Your pup will also be welcome to come along on the many outings my family goes out on such as the dog park, shopping, road trips, etc... =) (If this is your first time using Rover.com - message me for a code that will take $20 off your first booking!) I can't wait to meet your pup and start making a difference in their lives. :)

Howard was great with my cat, Abby. Abby is really shy and Howard was super gentle and accommodating with her. He followed the care instructions exactly, and sent good pictures and post-visit updates. I will definitely book him next time I need a cat sitter!

Howard did a great job watching Barley this weekend! He sent us a bunch of picture updates and asked questions if he needed clarification on anything.

Howard was great! We needed a last minute Rover while we were at a funeral in town. Howard made it so we had no worries about our sweet pups and were able to spend time with family and friends. He made a diffucult time significantly easier. Thanks Howard!!

Zeus did great with Howard! He got tons of love and affection and I was updated at all times with how he was doing. Photos were provided as well which helped the separation. I felt at ease with Zeus staying with Howard and would love to have him sit again!
