Availability

I am planning on using this job as supplemental income as I attend graduate school. I am pretty flexible and available most times during the week except for when I have classes. I have some commitments in the evening and I row in the early mornings on Tuesdays, Sundays and some Fridays but the rest of the days I’m available.

Information Max F. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to know the size, energy level, and typical walk distance ahead of time. I don’t mind doing a walk around the block or a few miles if that’s what the dog needs.

A typical day

I generally really enjoy walking around and exploring new parts of the city. If the dog knows any tricks I’d love to practice them with them and generally engage your pet as much as I can.

Responsible, caring, communicative

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs since I was twelve when I first got my dog. His name was Jackie and he grew into a 100 pound black lab. He passed away four years ago and since then I have been working with the Service Dog project which trains Great Danes for people who “experience balance and mobility issues.”

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.
