Pet care experience

I have been around animals what seems like my whole life. I know it appears to be cheesy but i have experience with the traditional pets and the non traditional pets. What is a non traditional pet you ask, i have taken care and house sat for owners of a farm that had chickens, sheep, and goats.

Very pleased with Rob’s service, communication, & overall happiness of our dog. Provided us with daily updates as well. We will reach out to Rob if we ever need dog sitting in the future.

Rob did a great job taking care of my beasties and home. We were gone a little more than a week, and he communicated with me throughout and proactively took care of my plants and mail. All the pets were happy and relaxed when I got home...there was no "talk to the paw" that has happened with just drop in visits. We'll be happy to have Rob back for our next vacation.

Rob went out of his way for my 2 dogs when no one was available. Very dependable and good sitter.

Rob did a fantastic job taking care of our home and watching our doggo Leon. Leon recently started to suffer from seizures and the exact cause is still undiagnosed. We had to leave town for a family event and this was the first time having someone watch him since the seizures started. Needless to say, I was anxious. Rob was kind, empathetic, and communicative while I overloaded him with information regarding Leon and his medication requirements, etc…Luckily the medications have been working so Rob did not have to deal with any seizures, but it was comforting to know he was there and capable if anything were to happen. Thank you, Rob!
