Safety, trust & environment

I have a super friendly little terrier mix named Poppy, who I like to bring with me on walks, if possible. He gets along great with humans and animals of every kind. For housesitting stays of more than a couple days, I like to bring Poppy with me to stay with me and your pet(s). I’ll either crate him or take him with me anytime I need to step out.

Information Max S. would like to know about your pet

Please do let me know if your pet has any special needs, triggers, or behaviors that I should account for. I want them to be happy and comfortable.

A typical day

Whatever your pet likes to do with you, just let me know and we’ll do it! I usually set up a meet and greet with new customers, in part to see how they interact with their pets.

Max is wonderful! He has spent about three different overnights with my dog. He is prompt, responsive, and sends frequent updates with photos. I know that my pup is well cared for and safe and it's obvious that my dog adores Max. Highly recommend!

Max is a caring, reliable, attentive caregiver for our dog. We recommend him highly for any pet needs. Our dog loves him and eagerly awaits his walks knowing that Max is coming!

Max took great care of our very large (150lb) dog Lenny while we were away! He is a speedy communicator and provided frequent updates, which we appreciated. We returned to a clean home and a happy pup. We would recommend Max to anyone looking for a sitter!

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.
