Former old pup owner,loves all dogs
Pet care experience
I’m the first friend offering to dogsit for my friends and have looked after several over the years: young, old, big, small, each with their own ridiculous personality. I took care of our own elderly pup (before his passing) so I’m experienced with sneaking meds to reluctant four legged recipients.
Reviews
Keith is the best!
Repeat stay for my fur baby. Keith and family were amazing hosts. Nothing more to add.
The best of the best. Our dog loves every moment.
Keith did an outstanding job caring for our pup for a week. He is a natural dog person and is clearly comfortable being around dogs and reading their personalities. He kept in close contact with photo and video updates and I was always confident that my pet was in excellent hands. Great Rover experience, 5 stars!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a big fenced in yard for dogs that don’t like the leash or don’t need a full walk to do their business. Our house has a relatively open floor plan on the first floor where my office is so pups are able to meander and lounge easily without getting too far away. I can also work in the backyard when the weather and work allows. I can set up in the kitchen by the bay window to watch them in the yard while I’m still inside as well.
Home
Information Keith M. would like to know about your pet
I like to know the dog’s typical routine and diet and try to match it. The usual things I ask about are: Any allergies or food/treat restrictions? How they do with other dogs? How do they do with children? (We have a baby) What’s their sleeping arrangement (have a bed, in our bed, in a crate, etc)? Any do’s or don’ts with pets or handling?
A typical day
My work days are rarely stacked with calls so I can easily let dogs out into the yard when needed or give them the pets and attention they need during the day. I try to go for a good long walk on lunch and after work. If the dog doesn’t mind cars, happy to drive to a dog park or out for a hike. On the weekends we typically try to take the dogs for drives out to state parks or new fields but are just as happy to lounge inside with lap dogs.

I work from home so I’m around all day to give pups pets, treats, and bathroom breaks in our yard and dip out for a lunch time walk either around the block or a quick drive to Mill Pond or Stone Park.
