Finding a place for our furry family members while we're on vacation or out-of-town can can be a stressful situation. Will our dog be happy? Safe? Afraid or lonely? I love my dog, but (s)he can be quirky at times. Will the sitter know how to handle them? My dog has special needs, will they get the proper and loving care they require and deserve? Hi, my girlfriend and I are new to the rover community, but not new to taking care of dogs. Over the last 8 years, I've had the opportunity to foster over 50-60 dogs for rescue groups in SoCal from my old home and was fortunate to gain a lot of experience and perspective from that period. Certainly a little more than the average dog lover. I also spent a few years helping out at a dog training center and learned a great deal through that experience as well. I like to think I speak fluent canine and have been told many times that I have a great way with dogs and some insight into their behavior. My girlfriend has been a dog sitter for quite a while she a HUGE dog lover as much as I am. We will both take care of your dog's like they're our own. We are always around. We also have 1 dog who is very experienced with others, so your dog will never be lonely. He, like us, are incredibly social creatures and your furry kids will always have a sense of being part of a family when they're here. I have a passion for dogs and can't imagine what life would be like without them around. We look forward to meeting you and your dog(s)! Why we love dog sitting We don't know a time when we WEREN'T a dog lover. I had a family dog that lived until a ripe old age until my late teens and I adopte I've always had a pair of my own. Meet my pets 1 Husky named Akino. Has tons of experience with other dogs and is very calm and friendly. Give me the chance to prove to you I deserve 5 stars. I have many references that can be given from people that I have watched their dogs for years.
