Information Larry J. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any medical problems or anything negative associations they might have to help them feel at ease and never stressed. Proof of vaccinations and treatments required to keep everyone healthy and safe!

A typical day

Wake up, take dogs out for 1 mile walk. Come back and have them drink water and hang out in the yard/play with me before prepping breakfast. Big on no movement or play after eating to prevent GSV! Hang out in the living room with me in between afternoon/evening walks and runs.

Larry was great with my German Shepherd who is very active. He took her on daily trail walks and sent pictures everyday. He watched her for an entire week. I would absolutely book with Larry again. He did a pick up and drop off so convenient!

Larry is a true dog lover and has lots of great experience with animals through being a dog trainer. I felt confident leaving my dog in his care and I will definitely rebook with him!

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.
