I Love Your Rottweiler & Pitbull!

Pet care experience

I love dogs of all shapes and sizes and will love and care for your dog of any breed as if they are my very own! I am a true believer that there is no such thing as a "bad" or "vicious" breed. And, sadly, I believe that Rotties and Pitties are two of the most misunderstood and discriminated-against dog breeds of our day. For that reason, though I am very happy to care for all dog breeds, I have chosen to emphasize my specialized care of these two special dog breeds. I know firsthand how difficult it is to find a trustworthy and knowledgeable caregiver! As a proud Rottie-daddy, (my wife and I have two now and have had several over the course of the past 20 or so years), I thoroughly understand the breed and know how to care for their special needs. From walking them to administering medication (including injections), I can care for your Rottie just like you do, in your home, where your big baby (yes, the secret is out!) is most comfortable. And, though I don't have the pleasure of having a Pittie now, I had a beautiful boy ("Bandit") when I grew up that I loved with all of my heart. And, I have family and friends who share their home with this loveable breed and I take advantage of every opportunity to love on these guys. I have never met a Pittie I didn't love! No matter what kind of dog you have, I promise to love and care for your dog like my own! I am a licensed Florida Realtor (which means that I had to undergo and pass an extensive criminal background check), with a very flexible work schedule and can almost always accommodate your work or travel schedule - even on short notice.

Rob saved our thanksgiving! The family and I had to travel 3 hours away to meet up with family for not only 1 of the infamous turkey dinners but 2 separate ones. Rob saved the day! He came by did a meet and greet with my pups the night before, played with, fed, walked and gave treats to my fur babies. The app is wonderful! Knowing when and where my kids are and what they are doing was really cool but just the simple fact that Rob was so great with my 1 yr old Am.bully (whom is not as trained as he should be) and had no complaints from all his jumping, he even left little reports saying how good my babies are which in turn made me so proud of my babies. It's difficult to trust another person with your kids and jyst add hard when its your furry ones, but Rob was AMAZING and ill definitely be using his service again!!!

I am not proud to admit that I was selfishly hesitant to review Rob. Don't judge too quickly, you pet parents know how hard it is to find someone who you trust to love and care for your furkids in your absence. But I was just too pleased with Rob not to give him a great review. I can not say enough good things about Rob and after he has taken care of your furkids, you'll want to keep him just for your fur babies too. After searching for 2 years to find just the right person to care for my 6 furkids, I happened upon Rob's profile on Rover. What caught my immediate attention was that he said he would love my Pitbull; well I tested him on that since all 6 of mine are rescued pits. I thought it was going to be impossible to find someone who could handle the size, quantity and energy level of 6 dogs, but on our initial meeting my girls immediately took to Rob and he treated them with the attention, respect and discipline that I was looking for. My husband was shocked when upon entering our home Rob knew each one of the dogs names as well as their ages, which my husband can't even keep straight at times. I am the first to admit that I am an over protective parent who’s dogs truly are my life, but after meeting and interviewing several potential sitters, I knew that Rob checked many of the boxes as well as that gut instinct we all have. I immediately booked him for a drop-in a few days later and couldn't have been happier with his service. After a couple more drop-ins I took my first overnight trip in 2 years knowing that my furkids were in good hands. He kept their schedules for potty breaks, feeding times and medications while sending me photos and updates during his visits. I arrived home to happy, healthy dogs who had enjoyed their staycation with their new friend. I have already booked our trip for next month and are planning on having Rob as our sitter for a long time.

We are so fortunate to find Rob. Rob is loving, yet firm with our big rescued greyhound, Jack.

Rob Tower is an amazing human being. He loves everyone he meets and is a truly kind hearted individual. More importantly is his love for man and woman's best friend. I would not think twice in allowing my four legged child to spend time with Rob. They would actually prefer hanging with Rob than me! If you want the next best thing to you to care for your fur baby, Call Rob Tower!!

Information Rob T. would like to know about your pet

I love to know all about a dog's personality. I enjoy knowing your dog's favorite treats (and if I have permission to indulge your baby with treats); his/her favorite toys; what he/she likes and doesn't like. I love all breeds of dogs, but I do have a super soft spot for Rotties and Pitties.

A typical day

When I walk your dog, I am patient and will allow them to sniff and enjoy their time in the great outdoors. I will clean up after your pet after any potty breaks. I will engage your dog in playful activities and they will get lots of loving care and attention.
