Information Peter W. would like to know about your pet

I am totally fine with working with special needs dogs! Just let me know what needs to be looked after or done to keep your pup safe and happy!

A typical day

I love playing fetch in my closed backyard or maybe taking a drive down to the Hudson River to walk along the beach! I go to a lot of different parks to try to keep it fun and interesting for my buddy Mac! We go for long hikes in the woods that are 10+ miles

Pet Care Professional

Pet care experience

My name is Peter and I am looking to take on new clients! I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always watched family dogs since I was a small child. Being around dogs and caring for them brings me a sense of relaxation and calm like no other! A year ago, I adopted my Carolina dog Mac from a shelter and have fallen in love with being a full time dog dad! That being said, I love being around dogs of all kinds and sizes and have decided that being a pet sitter is the perfect job for me while I attend college. I am open to all inquires at this time and can’t wait to get to know your pup!

Peter was fantastic! This was our third time booking him, and he never disappoints! He kept us updated throughout with photos and check-ins, which always gives us total peace of mind. Communication is smooth from start to finish and he’s always quick to respond. Highly recommend!

Peter is remarkable! Not only does he care for our dog Oliver as if he’s his own but provides detailed visit summaries and pictures. Without hesitation we will use Peter’s services again.

He took care of our brand new puppy and stayed over with her the whole time. Kept us updated as we are anxious new pup parents. She loved him and we are continuing to book 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.
