I'm an alert and cautious walker and I give plenty of time for dogs to get all their sniffs in. I am very thorough about locking doors, keeping an eye on pets outside, etc.

This was my first experience using Rover, and I was very pleased with Michael! He’s extremely communicative, timely, and gives good feedback on how the walks went. An excellent choice if you need a good dog walker while you’re away!

Throughout his childhood he was around pets all the time. If it was a class pet or watching someone’s dog he always treated it like his own. He grew up with a cat in his early childhood along with some frogs too and then around middle school he started to have dogs. His first dog was very shy and scared of people but he was able to be one of the few people that gained her trust and was able to be around without her feeling scared. He has always had a fascination with animals and treats them with care and respect they deserve. Please consider Michael for the position at rover as I know he will love and care for the animals as his own which will help put people and their pets at ease!

Ben is a wonderful pet caretaker! He has always taken great care of my two dogs. He is very timely, reliable, and my dogs are always excited to see him!

Ben has been taking care of our dogs for years. We completely trust him with walking them, feeding them, and even giving them complicated medicine. He takes great care of our fur babies and they always get so excited to see him. He clearly goes the extra mile and will play fetch in the yard if they aren’t tired enough after the walk. If we are out of town for an extended time we feel comfortable with Ben taking care of them and we completely trust him to be in the house while we’re away. Simply the best, most loving and trustworthy guy we could imagine!
