Availability

I work from home everyday building and repairing guitar amplifiers. Having doggos around makes it feel less like work, especially if they like to sing along or howl to guitar playing! I tend to start work late(around noon) and go until 9 or 10PM but will take plenty of breaks for meals, walks, and play. Honestly, I'd rather play with dogs than work so help me procrastinate! Lol!

Safety, trust & environment

My casita has small fenced-in front and back yards where they can go potty, sniff, and play. I'm not sure if this is considered an apartment or house. There are 3 other casitas here attached by carports but all entrances and fenced areas are private. Luckily my neighbors and landlords are dog owners/lovers! The sliding door to the deck and rear yard opens from the bedroom which also has a recliner where they are welcome to nap. And, Brandi Fenton dog park is nearby if they need to run.

Home

Information Patrick M. would like to know about your pet

It would be helpful to know if your dog has any food allergies, recent injuries, issues with aggression towards other dogs, is accident prone(potty), can be left alone for short periods of time or likes to chew on furniture or other non-doggo household items.

A typical day

I typically walk around my neighborhood and throw ball or play tug of war in the back yard or bedroom but I can drive a short distance to the loop bike path or to Brandi Memorial dog park if they are high-energy dogs and need to run. They are welcome on the furniture and on my bed as long as they are reasonably clean and not too stinky. Lol!

Uncle Pat's Sit and Stay!

Pet care experience

I've had several Beagles growing up. Each one was a family dog but it was obvious who the dog considered their favorite! I dont currently own a dog but I plan on adopting a rescue pup soon. I love to be around dogs and I've been walking, sitting, and boarding for friends, family, and neighbors for years. Dogs are the best people! * I will not book any boarding or sitting jobs without meeting you and your pup(s) first. It's just best for everyone involved and it's important to me that your pup will be comfortable with me and my home.

Patrick was extremely attentive to pico’s needs (and there are many). Will absolutely be using him again if he will have me!

Thank you, Uncle Pat, for making our first experience with Rover a very pleasant one! We were nervous about trying Rover for the first time. From our previous experience with dog sitters, something always happens right before we get home. I'm glad Rover does offer protection if anything happens to our babies, for the worst-case scenario. Uncle Pat is amazing, thank you for meeting us prior to accepting our request to ensuring that our babies would be comfortable with you and to ensure we were happy with their accommodation. Patrick kept us informed with status, pictures, and vidoes of our babies while we were out of town. We love how his backyard gate has various holes in the fence to let dogs of different heights see what is behind it. Patrick was professional and ensured he had all the information he needed to keep our babies safe, happy, and treated like family. I promise, the next time we leave our babies with Uncle Pat, that I will bring a collapsible or smaller crate for our dogs. and not our beefy heavy-duty one.

Uncle Pat took good care of our 2 pups. They are high energy and quite demanding of attention and Pat must have met their demands as they came home in good spirits and not as stressed as they are when kenneled. Thank you.

Gus had fun at his stay with Pat! He did such a great job at treating him like his own pet! Would highly recommend booking with him!

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.
