Love Old Dogs/Experienced Walker

Thank you for taking an interest in having me look after your animals! My name is Max, I’m 30 years old, a University of Cincinnati graduate, and I live in Mason with my two dogs - Kerrigan and Life. I adopted Kerrigan(Beagle/German Shepard Mix) from Save The Animals Foundation a couple of years ago. She was a timid,scared and reactive puppy when I got her and now she’s really become a dog that I'm proud to call my own. My other dog, Life(Collie Mix), moved in with my S/O shortly after I got Kerrigan. Life is my old lady who loves to cuddle and give kisses. The two dogs love each other and have become very close since they started to live together. They play and go on walks with me everyday. I’m very lucky to have them! From 2018 - 2021 I worked at Red Dog Pet Resort as the Daycare and Boarding Resort Lead. I learned so much working there, especially during the pandemic. I’m now able to take all that experience working with all kinds of animals to make my personal pet business the best it can be. I was certified by Red Dog to administer medication. I’ve given hundreds of dogs hundreds of different pills/ointments/injections over the years. I started working from home in 2023 which has allowed me to start my Rover back up again! I have a very flexible schedule right now. Thanks for reading this. Hope to hear from you soon!

Safety, trust & environment

We can go on walks or just play around the house. Whatever you or your dog wants! I also always check water/food. I do require a strong harness or a well fastened collar(only if a harness is not available) for any walk or bathroom break outside while not behind a fenced in area. This is a requirement for Rover and for myself. This is for your dogs, other dogs, and my safety

Schedule

I work from home so I have a decent amount of free time. I am pretty flexible! I exclusively do dog walks and drop ins. I also do drop ins for cats. I do not typically accept recurring walks/drop-ins

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Max can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Any Medical issues Leash/Dog/Human Aggression Any fears/anxiety that would be relevant Anything else that you think would be useful for me to know! For dogs I do require a meet and greet before booking a drop in/walk. Cats are a lot more flexible and can usually be communicated entirely over the app. If you do think a M+G is needed then I'm more than happy to schedule one.
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.
