Pet care experience

Responsible long-time friend of dog

Hi there, you've come to the right guy! My name is Rob, I am a responsible, kind and friendly dog lover! I have well over 15 years of experience caring, walking, training and sitting dogs! I can handle dogs of any size and have cared for dogs from the age of 4 months to 15 years. I have been a dog owner for the past 17 years (mostly two at a time) and currently have a one 2 y.o. pup who is energetic loves to play with every other dog she meets. Rest assured that your pet will be treated like my own. I believe in providing a calm and loving environment by sticking to your schedule as closely as possible and making sure that your pup gets plenty of exercise! An exercised dog is always a happy dog! I have no size or breed requirements, all breeds welcome!

My dog had her first sleep over with Rob and his family this weekend. It went well and Callie was well cared for and got a nice amount of exercise. Rob was very patient and accommodating of Callie’s very early morning routine. Communication was excellent. It’s always a relief to know your dog is in good hands!

I cannot recommend Rob highly enough. Cody comes home happy and healthy and a little sad to be leaving. He is always quick to communicate, and was able to accommodate my rapidly changing travel plans over this last blizzard. Really really grateful to have someone to count on to take care of Cody when I can't

Rob provided great care for our dog, Dale’s week-long stay. Periodic pictures of how Dale was getting on were both fun and reassuring. We’ll gladly use his services again!

Rob was great. Our dog stayed with Rob for the first time the weekend of the snow storm. Rib was understanding of our changing travel plans but more importantly took great care of our pup. Milou will definitely be back.

My deerhound Clarice loves to stay with Rob. She has a great time playing during her stays and clearly comes home happy!

Schedule

I work as a part-time freelance web designer, entirely remote. I make my own hours and have quite a lot of flexibility year-round, so with a little notice I can schedule in a walk or drop in visit to help you out and make sure your pet stays happy and healthy while you're at work or on vacation or on top secret missions.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is my #1 priority. I will maintain open communication with you on any observations during my time with your pet. I have a single family house with a small fenced-in yard and a custom in-and-out pen. I can crate any dog if needed to be crated. I have experience in multiple different types of harnesses and leashes. I will always keep doors closed and fences shut to ensure your pet is safe.

It is helpful to know your dog's daily schedule for feedings, exercise routine, play time and relaxing time where applicable. I request “meet and greets” for any new clients to get know you and your dog. I do not have any breed preferences. Unfortunately, I'm extremely allergic to cats, so I don't be able to do visits at cat-friendly households.
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.
