Lifelong genuine dog and cat lover

Pet care experience

I've had cats and dogs throughout my life, small terriers and larger German shorthaired pointers as well as looking after dogs through apps like Borrow My Doggy.

At a very short notice Robert accepted my request. He is very caring and polite gentleman. Luna was very happy and playful in the house. Highly recommended.

Our chocolate Labrador Yorkie spent 3 nights recently with Rob. He was very friendly from the moment we sent the request and provided regular pictures and pupdates through the stay. We would not hesitate to book Rob again to look after Yorkie. Thanks!

Rob looked after my dachshund, Hooper, for a weekend and Hooper seemed to have a great time. I totally trust him and would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone who needs a reliable and caring dog sitter/walker.

Hershey had an amazing time with Rob and I’m sure he’s looking forward to his next stay. Rob’s a brilliant communicator, has great experience with dogs and I’d be more than happy to leave my boy with him again. Highly recommend :)

Information Robert D. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to meet most dogs prior to any long term commitment (5+ days). I feel this is very important not just for me but also the dog. Ideally I'd know how they react with other animals as where I'd intend to take them they'd experience many dogs, squirrels, cats and of course the foxes!

A typical day

Regular walks or runs around Alexandra Park. I used to be a keen cricketer so can throw a ball for longer than most dogs will run for!

I work full time but from home 3/4 days a week which are very flexible. I'm also very active and run regularly and would love to take your pet with me. I have a large secure outdoor area at my flat as well as being located right next to Burgess Park where I tend to spend my lunch breaks.
