Pet care experience

Burbank/Glendale/NoHo dog walker

I've had dogs for most of the past 24 years, raising some from puppyhood to age 16, others were adopted as seniors. I've spent the most time caring for my senior dogs, I am experienced in feeding and medicating, a patient walker and often sit for neighbors' dogs. I am also a dog foster, and occasionally have a foster dog in my care. I find fostering very rewarding since my last dog passed away.

Safety, trust & environment

I love caring for and interacting with dogs, am respectful of others' property and I am responsible. A meet and greet with your dog is essential for me and the dog to be comfortable with each other before the first walk or drop-in.

John has been an amazing help with our two dogs. He asks all the right questions to make sure he is as prepared as possible to provide the services needed. Communication is prompt and consistent which provides a level of peace knowing that my dogs are under his care.

John was extremely good with the dogs, very knowledgeable on handling them. Communication was excellent and John was very flexible with walking them. I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again.

Schedule

I am self-employed, working from home most days so I have flexibility and availability for walks. For sitting, all I need is a few days notice, wifi and I can bring work with me if necessary. I am currently without my own pet but sometimes foster, which shouldn't impact my availability.

I need to know about any special needs, particular behaviors, and their temperament around strangers. Also, I prefer to adapt to their routine for their comfort and a meet and greet beforehand is a must.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
