Experienced, trustworthy dog-sitter
Pet care experience
I have lived with and taken care of several dogs in my life, so pet care has always been a role I have felt comfortable with. While I am in the transition of getting a dog for myself, I felt like Rover would be a great opportunity to meet new pups while developing new skills, as well as hopefully making a new friend! Your 4 legged best friend will be treated as one of my own and we will have super fun, engaging, and exercise-friendly play-dates or walks. I am a very active individual and the opportunity to play with dogs all day was one I did not want to pass up. I am more available on the weekends than weeknights. Multi-day stays are welcome! Current UPenn employee and alumni.
Reviews
After much thought, I decided to go ahead and submit this review. We would not use Patrik again. We hired Patrik to stay at our home while we were gone to dog sit our two dogs with the understanding that they could not be left alone for more than a couple of hours. He even commented "I'm going to be their shadow". The first day was fine. The second, gone for over 3 hours, back for 3, gone again for over 3. By the third day, he was there one hour over a 13 hour period. We shared all of our concerns with Patrik and of course he disagrees with us, but as we told him before we hired him, we have surveillance camera and they don't lie. Had we not had the video evidence of this, we would have been blissfully ignorant thinking our dogs were well looked after.
Patrik did an amazing job caring for our two dogs at our home for 6 nights. He checked in regularly, sent pictures and was very responsive. When our flight home was delayed, he was happy to keep caring for the dogs for another day. We could not have asked for a better dog sitter than Patrik. We would highly recommend him and will definitely be asking for his help again next time we go away!
Patrik did a great job with my dog Tillie for a weekend stay! She needed several antibiotics and other meds and he kept track of everything. I loved getting pics of her while I was away and knowing she was well cared for in my absence. Would definitely book again!
Patrick was great. He was highly communicative, easy to get in touch with about some last-minute stuff, and sent lots of updates and pictures of our dog. He stayed at our house and took great care of both our dog and the place. We'd recommend him highly.
