Pet care experience

Loving life and loving dogs.

I’ve been taking care of my family pets since I was a kid. I adopted Jack at 8 months old and we’ve been inseparable ever since. We’ve been on many moves throughout the country and he is my forever travel buddy. When I got married, my wife and I adopted Pico. Both of them are super smart, being an Aussie and a BC, and lots of training and attention are needed. We have trained them from walks on the leash, tricks, potty training, you name it. Currently thinking about agility training for Pico and maybe Therapy dog training for Jack.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

My own two pets get daily walks themselves either by me, my wife, or both. My wife works at home, so she takes care of them during the day. However, I give them walks every morning, feed them, water them, make sure they take any medication, brush them (Jack needs a lot of brushing), give them baths, snuggle them on the couch or the bed and really treat them like family. I train my dogs to walk on the leash correctly with commands and can assess situations where if one of my dogs is nervous or anxious, can avoid that situation at all cost.

House Sitting • Jul 16, 2026

Kevin was excellent! He stayed in our home while caring for our dogs, and we couldn't have asked for a better sitter. He was respectful of our home, left everything clean and in great condition, and took wonderful care of our pups. His communication was excellent throughout our trip, giving us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to two happy dogs and a well-cared-for house. We'd absolutely book Kevin again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy house sitter!

Kevin walked Charlie every evening while we were away for a week. She is dog reactive and Kevin was comfortables and competent and handing this issue. Thanks Kevin!

I came home to happy and healthy dogs! Although they are normally anxious and nervous about new people, Kevin connected with my two dogs very quickly during our meet and greet, easing my own nerves. He communicated throughout the sit and I was grateful to always get a quick response when needed. Highly recommend and I will be rebooking him for sure!

Kevin was fantastic! He arrived early and showered my fur baby with love. He made sure to have all of his favorite treats on hand. I would not hesitate to hire him again. If you're unsure, let this review be confirmation that Kevin is top-notch. I felt at ease leaving my pet in his care.

My schedule is flexible as my job is remote. For my calendar in Rover, I know my schedule about a month out, but that is the maximum. At this time, I cannot commit to any requests longer than a month out. Thank you for understanding.
