Can’t believe I get paid for this!

Pet care experience

I’ve had a beagle, shih-tzu, Maltese shitzu mix, and a pug (19 years of caring for dogs). Needless to say, they’re all very different personalities ranging from super affectionate to super independent (almost like a cat). Responsibilities including: vet visits, grooming appointments, bathing, walks at least twice a day, potty training, puppy care, etc. I’ve had friends leave dogs under my care for weeks at a time and seeing their excitement never gets old. I truly believe dogs are family members and should be treated as such. I’ve had dogs across all life stages and understand the complexity of navigating each dog’s nuances and idiosyncrasies. Also, I work in the behavioral health/sciences so I will make sure that we are on the same page regarding behavior management!

Robert was great with Carter! He is very thorough and his care will exceed your expectations. He communicates well and often, providing lots of updates and pictures (we’re first time dog parents, so we were naturally anxious. These pictures/updates really helped put our minds at ease). He is super accommodating. My partner and I 10/10 recommend Robert!

Robert is awesome and very accommodating. I had a last minute change of plans and needed to extend another night which he gladly took care of Zoey :-) I will definitely request Robert again when I am in town:-)

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.
