I love being active. So if that’s what you’re looking for in a dog sitter you’re in luck. I’ll attentively walk, play and engage with your animal to make sure they’re getting enough exercise.

Loving pet owner with free time

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for animals my entire life, from my own beloved pets to helping neighbors, friends, and family care for theirs. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of looking after pets with a wide range of personalities, needs, and challenges. I have experience caring for senior pets, blind dogs, animals that require medications, and pets who need extra patience, attention, and reassurance. I understand that every animal is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, comfort levels, and individual needs so they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet needs extra love and companionship, a consistent routine, medication support, or simply someone dependable who will treat them like family, I’m committed to providing thoughtful, reliable care. Your pets deserve the same kindness, patience, and attention I would want for my own.

Rob took excellent care of our dogs again. This time, he house sat while we were out of town. There were no issues and a detailed final update. He maintained cleanliness of the house and was completely respectful of our space. We will definitely book Rob again when we need to!

Rob is an excellent caretaker for our babies. They both have very different personalities and he embraces them both. He is always punctual and responsive to message. Excellent sitter and we are booking him again!

We made a couple of bookings with Rob and he is excellent. We have upcoming bookings as well. We, and the dogs, look forward to his continued care. He goes above and beyond and provides updates for how the visits go. We are excited to continue to work with him!

Rob is the best dog sitter/walker you could ask for! He is my go-to! Super reliable, trustworthy, thoughtful, and treats your dog like they’re his own. I couldn’t recommend him enough!

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.
