Information Patrick D. would like to know about your pet

Temperament and triggers are important to know. I have worked with all sorts of dogs, so it's vital that I understand your dogs needs and personality.

A typical day

It all depends on the dog! We can walk or run. Playtime in the backyard is always a plus. If there are any tricks/commands your pups are trying to learn, I love to practice them with your dog. Given the heat, I try to keep to shaded areas during the summer and make sure the pups have fresh water.

Pet care experience

I have walked dogs since 2018. I have experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, temperaments, ages, and needs. I have a soft spot for senior dogs and special needs dogs, but I love them all! I also take pride in my pet photography skills 🙂 Regarding boarding I live in a 2 bedroom apartment that has a large, enclosed yard area for pups to play. I live in a very walkable neighborhood for great dog walks and am near a few dogs parks.

Patrick was an absolutely fantastic sitter for my pup! He was communicative throughout the entire stay, sending daily updates so I always knew how he was settling in. Drop-off and pick-up were smooth and easy, and the thoughtful questions he asked beforehand made it clear he genuinely cared about my dog’s comfort and wellbeing. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again!

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.
