Pet care experience

Don’t overstress here’s Rovers best

I love dogs ever since I first got one when I was 6 and now I own another beautiful red nose pitbull names cinnamon. As a dog owner I know how to care for dogs and know the signs when they’re in need or have to go. Pets in general love me because I stimulate their minds with fun activities and treats. Sometimes I teach me new tricks. My special skills include love, care, and proper communication I also have my bls certification and know the signs of distress when it comes to both humans and animals.

As always, it is such a pleasure to have both Marvin and his girlfriend look after my Stevie. Whenever I drop him off, he is super happy, leaving me so comfortable and with a sense of ease. Marvin is like Stevie's second home 😆 and we could not be more thankful.

House Sitting • May 27, 2026

We had the pleasure of having Marvin take care of our dogs while we were on vacation, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Marvin is a responsible, kind, and trustworthy young man who truly cared for our pets as if they were his own. He kept us updated, made sure they were well cared for, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs absolutely loved him! We highly recommend Marvin to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter.

Safety, trust & environment

I always make sure the pets are not just taken care of but also given love,attention and lots of protection including keeping them well entertained as well.

A typical day

As a previous dog owner I know to go out and explore the neighborhood and the local park. I also understand the need to stimulate their mental capability with fun games such as catch and playing with other variety of toys and then finally giving them a treat to improve confidence and good behavior.
