Information Russell E. would like to know about your pet

Just tell me about your lives together!! 😉👍 What is that daily dynamic and routine?? I would hope to learn enough to do my best to replicate it in every way possible while you're away. Separation for an animal is never easy, so my job is to make it as calm, fun, interesting and comfortable as I can in every way. Separation for an Owner is equally stressful, so I do my best to send the Owner Pictures and Videos detailing the love, care and attention their baby is receiving while they're away. 🙏❤️

A typical day

Completely depends on the animal I'm caring for. Every animal comes to me with a built in schedule so I do my best to follow the lifestyle their parents have provided for them.

Absolutely great with my 8 month old Border Collie! She got all the exercise she needed and had a great time! 10/10 would recommend, and would absolutely have Cedar stay again!

While we were away, Russell took wonderful care of our dog. Throughout the process, communication was easy and Russell always responded to our messages in a timely manner. We would certainly use Russell again and recommend him to everyone in the Rover.com community.

Russ cared for our fur baby while we attended a concert at Hayden Homes Amphitheater. We had talked and texted many times before the event so I was already confident our little Izzy would be in great hands. Russ has a very engaging and comforting manner with pet parents so I am sure the dogs in his care have his complete attention and affection. One of the reasons we picked Russ is because Izzy is completely spoiled, and Russ was one of the few sitters that welcomes pets onto his furniture and into his bed. What's more, Russ lives very close to the concert venue -- soooo convenient. I would take Izzy back to Russ in a heartbeat.

Hands down: Russell is fantastic and will treat your dog love and affection. He provided me updates on my dog, Dave, each evening, complete with photos and a video. I don't know what else to say! I'm really so very happy to know that he treated my dog possibly better than I do! 100% trustworthy to give your dog everything it needs in your absence. Thank you, Russell!
