Pet care experience

Star Sitter before Rover

My experience with dogs spans 20 years to when i graduated high school and found a job walking dogs in manhattan back in 2005, since then I’ve been entrusted to care for the dogs of neighbors in my building that houses 1000 units, coworkers even after we’ve left the place of business we originally met, and various other people through word of mouth in the greater crown heights/ Flatbush area. Since that time technology has brought me Rover where i can provide the same meticulous care for dogs of all sizes

Rashad was understanding of my last minute booking request and provided excellent care. I am definitely going to consider rebooking for future stays

Rashad and Kofi hit it off right away! The video and text updates I received throughout Kofi's gave me confidence that he was in great, caring hands. I'd absolutely rebook!

Rashad did great with our dog over a long weekend. We received lots of pictures and updates. He’s a pro and is patient even with our energetic pup. This was the first time leaving her with someone who wasn’t family/friends and it couldn’t have been a better experience!

Rashad always takes care of my chihuahua, and she always seems happy when she comes home. He always sends pics of her and gives regular updates to let us know how she’s doing. I’ve had Rashad watch our dog twice now and hopefully will be able to continue having him care for her whenever we go out of town.

Rashad took great care of Junglee, including giving her her monthly meds. I wouldn't hesitate to book him again.
