About Robert W.

Safety, trust & environment

I am happy to go over any guidelines regarding pet care, house/yard access, and pet activities during a meet a greet prior to the first visit. I'm a big believer of talking to pets, walking them as much as needed, playing with them, and challenging them mentally. When possible I prefer to walk dogs in a park or on a nature path instead of in a concrete jungle.

Conscientious animal lover. <3 Dogs

Pet care experience

I strive to cater to each pet's specific needs while providing a reliable service. Over the years, I have cared for dogs of all sizes, reptiles, rabbits, and cats. I've had success with training dogs not to pull when being walked, but I am currently not an accredited trainer. I look forward to meeting you and your pet!

Bob has taken care of my skittish cats a few times while I have been out of town. He did a great job of keeping them fed, cleaning the litter box, and giving them fresh water. I was amazed when Bob returned to the apartment to return the keys and get paid, my two tuxedos did not scurry under the bed as per the norm. Instead, they nodded at him politely from the hallway, and then, to my amazement, strolled past him on their way to the kitchen. This behavior by my cats informs me that they trust Bob and approve of his caretaker abilities, as do I.

Bob watched my rabbit for a long weekend when my sweet bun was sick and I had to go away. He was so caring and gentle. He sent pictures and updates because I was so worried. Bob made sure bun was eating and drinking enough. And even got him to come out of hiding and play. Bob has watched my rabbit several times since and has been great every time.
