Who'll Love Your Dog Better???
Pet care experience
Be sure to ask me about my Promo Code for $20 off your first booking! Hi there 😃! I first signed up for Rover to spend time with dogs way before I ever got Pono. I have loved dogs since I was a kid, and oftentimes they’re just drawn to me. I treat them as I do my own, making them feel loved and cared while we play, go for walks, explore nearby parks, or take naps at home. Your dog will love staying here in my pet-friendly building where pets and their owners meet daily at the large park outside. Your pup and I and Pono will be outside a good amount, soaking up the San Diego sun and getting in some great walks. Civita Park is right around the corner and your dog will love it there! My apartment is also a very loving space that's well cared for, with space for me and the dog(s) to roughhouse and play. Pono gets along well with other dogs and makes friends easily and quickly with them. She’s also very ok with sharing her toys =)
Reviews
Russ was amazing with my pup Oscar. His calm demeanor is so reassuring. He updated me consistently with photos and videos. His dog Pono seems sweet and gentle. I could tell Oscar had a great time during his stay! He returned happy and healthy. I would recommend Russ to anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter for their pet.
Russ is so great! He was a fantastic person for my dog when I had a last minute overnight and I was in from out of town. So thankful for the support of other good people for our dog friends.
Russ and his pup Pono are awesome! Scotty came home tired both days, and you could tell Russ cares about the dogs he looks after. He sent photos of the pups playing at the park throughout the day. Thanks Russ!
Amazing sitter! Super communication and updates. Looks after my dog like his own Pono. Such a great find. Thanks!

I'm fully fluent in Dawg and have an intuitive understanding of what most dogs like and how active they like to be. I also live near lots of parks so we'll be able to explore them and get in some good exercise. Or we can stay at home and chill. It's really up to the pup... and you, of course 😉.

Information Russ B. would like to know about your pet
How potty trained are they? Is it ok for me to work with the dog on things like heeling, sit, speak, etc? Will they be coming with a crate, toys, or food bowls?
A typical day
I live in Civita so there's a huge park all around, with walking paths and dog parks. We also sometimes drive out to fenced-in dog parks for more thorough exercise. Pono and I are also HUGE fans of going to Dog Beach in Ocean Beach, and will do so ONLY with your express permission.

I work from home and make my own schedule, so I can be really flexible. I also pay close attention to my calendar and do my best to keep it accurate.
