I will hardly leave your fur babies alone so you have peace of mind that someone will be there for them. I will care for them like they are my own. I have made this into my full time job and I take it very seriously.

Information Shaun R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your fur baby has any special needs or behavioral issues. Are they Aggressive towards other animals or people? Do they need medication? Anything else you think I should know?

A typical day

We could explore your neighborhood with a walk. Or play their favorite games like fetch, tug of war, etc. Lots and lots of love and attention.

TLC for your fur babies

Pet care experience

I have had pets pretty much my whole life. Mostly dogs and a few cats. I just lost my best friend in the start of November 2023. This has been the absolute hardest part of my life so far. She was my best friend for over 12.5 years. I enjoy the company of animals and would love to shower your fur baby(s) with love and affection. I do have a little bit of experience with training. (not professionally) I trained my belated boxer (Allie) how to sit, shake, lay down, come, stay and have been working with a clients dog when we go on walks or a sitting. I have also learned how to give insulin shots if needed for their care. 🥰 I also treat this job as “house sitting” if you need your mail/packages brought in, trash out to the curb and brought in, water plants, etc.

Shaun is a very dependable, very caring pet sitter. He always takes great care of our pets and the house. He sends great updates and informs us of any things out of the ordinary regarding the pets or house. We know that things are well taken care of when he stays at our home.

Shaun is an exceptional sitter! We hired him to dog sit/house sit while we were away for a long weekend. He is responsible, fulfills his commitments, takes great care of our pups and sends regular updates. We can relax and enjoy our time away when Shaun cares for Charley and Mollie!

Absolutely awesome sitter! Spent so much time with my dog. Followed his recovery schedule, for his tooth extraction. Updated with pictures and videos throughout the days. Highly recommend!

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.
