Information Tony H. would like to know about your pet

I can adjust to just about any kind of dog behavior. I know how to stay calm and learn about why they act the way they do. In fact that is my favorite part about taking on new dogs.

A typical day

I let my dogs be dogs. I love long walks but I also love taking them to dog parks to see how they interact with other dogs. I also like to challenge them with commands and cues. Your dog may come back tired, wet, or muddy or maybe all 3!

Enthusiastic Dog Lover

Pet care experience

I'm just an animal lover...plain and simple. I've owned many cats and dogs over the years and have also fostered and trained many dogs over the last 10 years. I love getting to know new dogs and learning how they think and act the way they do. Dogs really are my passion and a day with one of my dogs is usually my favorite day of the week. Humans are fine too...haha.

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.
