Pet care experience

I have a love and passion for dogs!

Hello Rover, my name is Rhys. I'm a college student who has a huge love for animals of all shapes and sizes, with my core passion being dogs. I've lived with canine companions my whole life so I have plenty of experience handling many different breeds and sizes. From time to time I even volunteer at local animal shelters to assist with walking and other tasks. Since my classes are online, I have plenty of time to keep my guests entertained and my large fenced in yard will give them plenty of exercise. I guarantee your pups will have a great stay!

Rhys was great with Lacey! He sent pics showing how well she was adjusting to her new surroundings and was genuinely engaged with her. I will definitely be booking with Rhys next time as well (If he's available)!

Rhys is an excellent caretaker for our baby, Mona. He was so attentive and responsive to all of our requests. He sent photos often and went above and beyond walking her and making her feel at home. I had no issues at all and felt comfortable leaving her with him. He took really good care of Mona and we would definitely leave her with him again.

Rhys was a great sitter for my higher energy dog! He did a great job making him comfortable and meeting all of his needs. He was also very understanding and accommodating when I needed to make changes to the booking. I will definitely book with him again when I need a sitter!

Safety, trust & environment

I'm very enrichment focused with a large fenced in back yard as well as an assortment of toys and safe healthy treats to satisfy and dogs energy and attention requirements.

A typical day

Like I said I am very enrichment-focused and bring dogs on regular trips and walks to the bridge park in town where they can run around a fenced-in field. I also focus on helping dogs feel comfortable and safe so that they can enjoy their stay and help them feel like they have a home away from home.

Let me know important details about your dog's temperament, such as whether or not they are aggressive towards other dogs, animals, or people. We are also a pro pet-on-furniture household, but if your household is not please let me know and I will respect that.
