Highlights
Pet care experience
Patient, Playful, Pet-Lover
I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a house full of dogs, cats, and even a pony I helped care for from early childhood. Our family dog, Woodchuck, was my first training partner (and cuddle buddy), and I adopted my own pets as soon as I could: a resilient, vocal, amputee, snowshoe Siamese cat named JJ; followed soon after by Liam, another snowshoe Siamese rescue who was shy, sensitive, and needed extra patience and care. Through high school, college, and post-grad life, I’ve consistently been a caretaker and companion to animals—even when they didn’t belong to me. Whether it’s a high-energy dog who needs a buddy to run circles in the yard, or a shy cat who just needs someone calm and patient, I have the experience and intuition to meet them where they are. I’m the kind of person who’ll be down on the floor playing tug-of-war until your dog happily collapses for a belly rub. And when it comes to cats, I’m just as happy to sit quietly and wait until they decide it’s playtime.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I treat every pet with respect and patience as I get to know them, always aiming to build trust and establish a genuine bond. When staying in your home, I’m mindful of your space and committed to following your pet’s routine and care instructions to the letter. I’m calm, observant, and always focused on your pet’s comfort and safety. Whether your dog has unique quirks or your cat prefers a certain hiding spot, I’ll take the time to understand their preferences and adapt accordingly. My goal is always to help your pets feel secure, seen, and loved while you’re away.
Ratings and reviews
Kendall was great! He took amazing care of my anxious dog. She requires daily medications and she gets sad when I’m gone for multiple days, but he was able to get her to come out of her shell. Kendall sent daily updates with lots of pictures which was much appreciated!
Kendall did an amazing job watching our two dogs. He kept in constant communcation with us and sent us pictures of the dogs each day to keep us up to date. We could see from the pics that our dogs were in good hands and that they were truly enjoying their time with Kendall. We would recommend Kendall for anyone looking for a dependable and worry-free dog sitter!
Kendall is the best persitter we have ever had! So attentive and thorough and genuinely loves animals so much. He is such a pleasure to work with
Kendall took amazing care of leo while we were gone in Greece for a whole week! Leo is high energy and requires lots of attention and Kendall does so good with him. We could not be more thankful.
Kendall is amazing and really saved us! A different Rover sitter was unexpectedly unable to finish their overnight sit when we were across the country. Kendall responded immediately to the request and made sure our dog had care. I really do not know what we would have done without Kendall’s help. He expertly navigated our large, (up until that point) unknown dog and made her feel at ease. He sent us many updates and pictures. Ten stars - would definitely trust Kendall in any sitting (or emergency) situation in the future!
The best dog sitter we could ever ask for! He keeps the dogs so active, taking them on walks and to the beach. You can tell how much he loves dogs it really shows through!!

- Let me know anything that helps your pet feel safe and comfortable—quirks, routines, triggers, or health needs. I have a soft spot for shy or sensitive animals and am happy to take things slow to earn their trust. But if your pet loves to play, I’m always ready to match their energy and join the fun.
