An Expert Dog-Sitter New To Rover
Pet care experience
I first watched my friend's dog, Friday (first picture), as I began working remotely, back in 2016. I fell in love with pet sitting. Since then, I have been watching dogs and a few cats for some friends, including the very playful Fiyero (with the bone). One of the things I value is getting to know the animals. I am cautious when walking and observing people, cars, and other animals around me.
Reviews
Kenny took great care of our pups in our home while we were on a weekend trip - he sent lots of updates which gave us peace of mind while we were away! He left the house clean and arrived on time for his stay. He walked our dogs and even took extra care to make sure our older dog (who often skips meals when we are away) ate breakfast one morning. We would definitely trust Kenny to sit for us again.
Ken is a great guy. He was very responsive and took good care of our two pups. Ken communicated almost every day with pictures and clever captions, letting us know all was well at home. I would highly recommend Ken's services!
Wonderfully responsive. Very good with Angel, who is a bit standoffish (a rescue).
Kenny has been a reliable dog and house sitter for our pup Jellybean for the past several years. He's our go-to man for the job, and has exhibited nothing but professionalism. I can't recommend Kenny enough for both dog walking and dog sitting services.

Safety, trust & environment
First, I know where the pets are most of the day. I prefer to check on them or have them sit with me. I love throwing a ball around in the backyard to give them exercise or a treat (if allowed) between meals. I make sure I am not gone for too long. Also, I don't leave a pet on the last day of watching unless I know the owner is en route, whether driving or on an airplane.
Information Ken M. would like to know about your pet
I want to know what they love or their triggers. I want to stick to their schedule as much as possible. Their peace of mind is also mine.
A typical day
I love to fetch the ball and do belly rubs (if comfortable). I also like to play with their toys if possible. I keep them on a leash, and they can walk at a faster pace or light jog if they are used to it. Though not active, lying on the couch is a nice way to show them they are loved.

I work remotely (around 30 hours) for a marketing agency. Besides some mid-morning meetings, I can set my hours for the rest of the day. I also have the flexibility to take care of your pet.
