Information ryan h. would like to know about your pet

Usual routines. Special needs and diets. How well do they listen/obey. How well animal(s) interact with other animals. Any other specific dos and donts. Escaping. Barking.

A typical day

I imagine I'd wake up, we would go for a walk, get back and have some breakfast. Assuming it is Monday - Friday, I'd come back for lunch, make sure all was well, then go back to work. I'd be done for the day, at some point we would take another walk and/or play. Then eat.

Your Furry Friend Will Love Me

Pet care experience

I have been boarding in my house on Rover for going on four years. We, my girlfriend and her mother live in a duplex with one dog and one cat ourselves, so there is flexibility with where all the creatures live. The backyard is fenced in. I work at Providence doing computer work Monday-Thursday, generally I will come home for lunch to let everyone out for outside time. I will generally discount the Rover price I have posted for long stays or the holiday stays. But do charge an extra day for last minute stays, or ones without a meet and greet. Starting in 2026 I am going to charge 10% as a security deposit for LARGE or high energy dogs. This is just to cover any extra wear and tear (door frames are the number one victim for my house). Cancellations: Life happens, I do not charge any extras or keep anything if a stay gets canceled. Pretty flexible with pick ups, drop offs, and most other things.

Ryan is the man, handling complicated pick-up and drop-off for my large energetic dog, on a holiday no less.

Ryan kept us super updated and was a great sitter. Booked him again for the following weekend and couldn't be happier.

Family emergency and Ryan was ready to help. Pups were well taken care of as usual.

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.
