I have grown up with dogs for most of my life. They are not just a pet, they are family. I understand difficulties in finding temporary accommodations for your pet during the week and weekend. I can provide full service if you want to take a weekend trip but unable to bring them. I am dog cpr instructor and have over 10 years of fire/emergency medical service experience. Additionally we are 10minutes away from a Pet emergency room. I have extensive experience with dogs with special medical issues as several clients in the past 2 years have used me to take care of their dogs. I will be able to be with your dog the entire time in my care and can accommodate special requests. I also will provide bathroom breaks frequently and right away. I own a 1 story home with minimal steps and a large back yard in a quiet neighborhood. Your dog will love the long walks in the park several doors down from my home. I can watch your dog from Friday through Monday evening. Other days during the week maybe possible but must contact me first. More than a week is also possible depending on the dog, please contact me for more information. Free pick up and drop off is available if you are within 5 miles of my location and request the service. Your dog must be able to get along with other dogs as I have a basset hound who is dog friendly himself. The othet 2 dogs on my profile are my parents dogs and they do not live at my home. I sometimes watch them though but during care with your dog, they will not be there. Dogs must be up to date with tick and flee medications. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you! New to Rover? Get $20 off first booking! Use promo code: ROBERF58014
