Canine volunteer & digital nomad

Pet care experience

Remember "Highway to Heaven"? That's my life as a digital nomad, going wherever I'm needed! I have fostered dogs from Best Friends in Kanab, UT, and Summit Rescue in Boulder, CO; and I've dogsat in Syracuse, NY; Missoula, MT; Golden, CO; Grand Junction, CO; and Riverside, CA. Want your pup to be popular? I have a phone grip to mount a tennis ball on my iPhone so your dog will be attentive during selfies to post on Tumblr. I'm also happy to tag your dog on social media, with your permission!

Ken was my savior today. I have been feeling sick all day and Ken accepted a walk last minute so my antsy dog could get much needed outdoor time. Thank you

We had Ken for a 2 day house sit for our dog, Flash. In all of our years using Rover, we’ve rarely had a sitter who loves Flash as much (maybe more!) than we do. Ken even made a special late evening visit outside of those that were scheduled just to make sure Flash had a little extra love before bed. We came back to a tidy home and happy pooch. Will definitely have Ken back again!

Ken's love for dogs is obvious in every interaction he has with them - I couldn't be happier with how he treated my little buddy like his own. Thank you for helping me get Toby out for a long walk on a busy workday, and for the adorable photos of him having the best time. I'll definitely be reaching out to Ken again when I'm nearby - he's the best!

I'm currently staying at an Airbnb that does not allow pets, but it's easy for me to put my Prius' rear seat down and transport your pup to a nearby park!

Information Ken G. would like to know about your pet

I love medium to large dogs — bonus points if it's a vizsla, blue heeler, or silver lab! If they need any medication, please let me know, and I am happy to ensure they get what they need.

A typical day

If your dog wants a short walk around the neighborhood, that's what we'll do! We can also hop in my Prius for a hike at the nearest dog park or hiking trail, if that's what your pup is into!
