I am very flexible time wise. I can walk your dog up to 4 times a day, and spend plentiful of time playing with them. I like to schedule a video chat or in person meeting before taking care of a new dog to know all the practicalities and see if we are a good fit.

Safety, trust & environment

I like playing a lot with dogs and making sure they are feeling happy and at home. I have a fenced courtyard and parks (e.g. het park) to walk them close by. I walk on leash. I have another dog (samoyed, male, you can see in the profile) that gets along with other dogs. So we can make them meet before to make sure they get along.

Information Maurizio R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs and what he can and cannot do (e.g should I keep the walks short, should I avoid other dogs when on walks, any medication that needs to be administered?). Also, you should provide me with all the equipment needed to take good care of your dog (collar for walks, food and bowls, toys, vet information ...).

A typical day

I love stimulating the dogs physically and mentally by having long walks and playing with them. I also like to provide them with lots of love and spend a lot of time with them. I can also train them at your request teaching a few commands for longer stays.

Pet care experience

(je parle aussi français, italiano, español kaj esperanto). I always loved dogs. I used to have one in my family growing up. Lately I've been dog sitting for friends when on holidays and here on rover, and I'm really loving it (and the dogs are loving it too😇!).

We had a great experience with Maurizio who took care of our dog Charlie (25kg mixed breed) for a week while we were away. From the start, he was reliable, caring, and very communicative. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind and showed us that Charlie was happy and well looked after. It was clear that he built a genuine connection with our dog, and Charlie came back relaxed and content. We would definitely recommend Maurizio to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter.

Maurizio did a great job looking after Boris. Boris is a big energetic puppy and Maurizio did really well taking charge.

We rebooked with Maurizio, this time for house sitting, and once again he delivered exceptional service. Our dogs are always thrilled to see him and genuinely sad when he leaves. I highly recommend Maurizio-his care and dedication are truly outstanding.

I recently had the pleasure of hiring Maurizio R as a dog sitter, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the start, he was professional, reliable, and clearly passionate about caring for animals. Maurizio took fantastic care of my dog, ensuring they were well-fed, exercised, and given plenty of attention. He provided regular updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was evident that my dog felt comfortable and happy in his care. If you’re looking for a trustworthy and dedicated dog sitter, I highly recommend Maurizio R. I will definitely be using his services again in the future!

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.
