Information Patrick S. would like to know about your pet

Just let me know what special needs are required for your dog prior to a walk. Also, I will be specific when asking questions about your dogs behavior towards other dogs in a foreign environment to prevent confrontational behavior.

A typical day

I like to take my dogs on a walk at various locations in the Sonora area (ie:Dragoon Gulch) and I can do the same for your dog while tailoring length of walk to your dogs energy level.

Patrick was prompt, professional, confident, and I felt like my dog was in good hands from the start. Definitely recommend.

Patrick has been an absolute God send! I work long hours so he has been taking Lucy on walks while I’m at work for the last 6 weeks. He is professional, courteous, Lucy adores him, and I’ve noticed her manners are improving! I love the pictures and updates he sends. 100% recommend Patrick and trust him completely!

Thanks for coming out. I’m sad that it didn’t work out.

I’ve been really happy with having Patrick walk Lila. He is always on time and gives a nice summary of how she is progressing since her surgery.

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.
