The Newt Scamander on Rover

Pet care experience

Hello my name is Roland and I have been caring for all types of animals since I was 7 yrs old. I'm an animal lover. Dog, cats, birds, reptiles, ECT. I'm the Newt Scamander of the Muggle world. Growing up I had a german shepard, a beagle who was lost and found a home with my family, and a Pug/husky mix named Buddy. Each one was a wonderful dog and they are sadly missed. Unfort. our dog Gracie Lou our purebred Golden passed away of Natural causes. But I am still available for pet sitting and house sitting. In my experience no dog is a bad dog. They need to be listened to and understood as most people do. With time and patience you can work with them and make them a better member to your family. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover since I was 5. We had a German Shepard when I was growing up and he passed away when I was 10. When I was 13 a Beagle followed me home from school and I searched high and low for it's owner. We found his owner who didn't want him and so we adopted him. He lived 6 years with us and he then was hurt badly in an accident. During my Sophmore year in college I adopted a Pug/Husky mix that I shared with my Mother. We grew to love and care for him until he passed away. About my yard. I don't have one. But we have a 1st floor 2 bedroom with tons of space and a dog park nearby as well as a track-dog walking places all around. payments on rover or the cash app (cheaper price if you use this app) My experience administering medication I have no issues with Admin. Meds as long as I get a detailed instruction on how the owner Admins or the bottle is labeled correctly.

Roland Cared for rusty early this December when I had to take a trip back home to see my parents. I was gone for about a week and Roland sent me photos each day. Although I am not a rover member, I am thinking of signing up to keep in touch just in case i need a sitter again. Roland was kind and loving to rusty and I recommend him highly.

Roland was extremely wonderful with my dog Sandy. He took great care of her while I was aways for 2 weeks on business in Tennesse. I left Roland with instructions for Sandy; going to the park at 3pm everyday and playing until she was tired, ect. And Roland followed with the list. (I know because he took photos and videos of her and sent them to me). I think he is one of the greatest sitters I ever truly had. So sad to see him move.

Roland took care of our two pugs when we went on Winter Break. He followed instructions down to the T. He even taught Tweedle Dee & Tweedle Dum a few new tricks while we were away and I am amazed at how well they listen to us.

Roland was new to New York and a friend of ours told us that he was the Guy to see with training our Shitzu Molly. Within a week of working with her she learned how to stay, sit and come. He worked side b side with us on how to control her and be a good dog.
