Doggy Day Care • Mar 06, 2026

Winnie was so happy to meet a new friend who took her on a lovely run on the trail! Keith was great and his home is a perfect spot for day care.

Keith was a great option to take care of my dog. She came back happy and healthy and would not hesitate to use Keith again for daycare or overnight boarding.

Keith has looked after Boo several times now and my pup always comes back having had the best time! My work schedule varies and Keith has always been very flexible with his time. You can trust that your dog is in good hands.

Keith was wonderful with Journey! He was easy to work with, incredibly caring, and provided daily pictures that gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Journey was clearly comfortable and happy in his care. Keith’s thoughtful communication and genuine love for animals made our experience worry-free. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!

I’m so rhankful to have found Keith and he was able to entertain Logan on short notice. Keith is knowledgeable and has the demeanor needed to give any concerned pet owner peace of mind. He answered promptly and was very accommodating. I highly recommend Keith and would absolutely book with him again!!

Schedule

As a firefighter working two 24-hour shifts per week, I have plenty of free time to dedicate to pet care. I stay active daily and love incorporating dogs into my routine with walks, hikes, and runs. Whether it’s morning exercise, midday playtime, or evening care, I provide flexible, attentive service.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is my top priority when caring for pets, having fun is a close second. As a firefighter and CPR-certified dog handler, I’m trained to respond to emergencies and ensure a secure environment. My fenced-in yard provides a safe space for play, and I carefully monitor all activities, whether at home or on walks, hikes, or runs. I understand dog behavior and body language, ensuring positive interactions and stress-free experiences. With experience handling rescue dogs, I’m comfortable with various temperaments and special needs. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize secure handling, proper hydration, and a structured routine to keep pets safe and happy.

A typical day

A typical day starts with a morning walk or run, followed by playtime in my fenced yard or a cozy rest. Midday includes another walk, hike, or structured play, tailored to your dog’s needs. Evenings wind down with a final walk and joining me in the kitchen to cook. Whether energetic or senior, every dog gets safe, attentive, and loving care.

To provide the best care for your dog, I’ll need some key details from you: • Daily Routine & Preferences: Feeding schedule, walking habits, energy level, and favorite activities. • Health & Medical Needs: Any allergies, medications, or special care requirements. • Behavior & Training: Socialization level, commands they know, and any triggers or anxieties. • Emergency Contacts: Your vet’s information and a backup contact if needed. • House Rules & Preferences (for in-home care): Crate training, furniture rules, and any specific instructions. Sharing these details helps me ensure a safe, comfortable, and fun experience for your pup!
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.
