Pets' well-being is my TOP priority
Pet care experience
Greetings! Having previously served as a Pet Care Specialist/Overnight Boarding Supervisor, I am now excited to channel my expertise by transitioning into Rover as a fulfilling side passion. In my former role, I had the privilege of working with numerous dogs and cats, encompassing various breeds, temperaments, sizes, and ages, including those with special needs or disabilities. Be assured that I will provide the same level of attention and care for your furry companions. I am fully capable of handling tasks such as bathing, feeding, administering meds/supplements, and taking your pet on both short and extended walks. If there are any particular preferences or requests you'd like me to be aware of, feel free to communicate them. Additionally, being a seasoned photographer, you can anticipate receiving delightful and adorable photos as a part of my regular updates! References available* First time using Rover?!

Reviews
Since I've known Travis, I've seen him be so caring and compassionate towards his dog, Nimbus. His attentive and nurturing approach towards Nimbus is evident, showcasing their deep bond. In my experience, I have 2 reactive dogs (both chihuahuas) and upon meeting them, he was able to create a sense of security for my dogs. His years of experience as a pet caregiver shows in his ability to understand and soothe animals. My dogs rarely like strangers and he was great with them. Overall, if you are looking for someone to take good care of your pets, I would highly recommend Travis!
Travis usually watches over our 2 Maltese's whenever we would go on international trips! He is always attentive and responsive when it comes to how our dogs are behaving. He would give regular updates and photos just so we are not worried. Thanks for being there for our little ones!
I've been acquainted with Travis since our elementary school days and have witnessed his personal growth over the years. It's disheartening to see that he's no longer working at the pet hotel, especially given the firsthand experience I had observing his passionate enthusiasm for caring for dogs. Travis's genuine love for animals truly sets him apart, and I sincerely recommend his services to fellow pet owners seeking a trustworthy and caring caregiver!
I used to work with Travis back in the pet kennel before the new management took over. Seeing his growth throughout the years, especially with little to no experience with animals in the beginning, was impressive. He quickly understood the pets that came in and out, as well as the dynamics of how the daycare and boarding systems work. Travis had such a drive that no one else had, even with the amount of drama the shop would have. He would not let it get to him and stayed neutral with everyone else because he knew he had to prioritize the well being of the doggos and cats in the end. Not to mention, when other staff would call off work, he would be quick to jump in and cover, even during holidays and busy weekends, he never really took time off. He would always tell me he had other jobs on the side just so he could get by with paying bills. He never complained, and I respect his hustle. Thank you for the yerba mate drinks during those crazy rush hours also! Would highly recommend him

A typical day
During my pet-sitting sessions, I make sure to keep things lively and enjoyable for furry friends. From engaging play time with toys to adventurous outdoor walks. I tailor activities to each pet's preferences so don't be afraid to let me know. For a touch of creativity, I might organize a mini photoshoot. Whether it's relaxing massages, training challenges, or snuggle time on the couch, I try to provide a mix of activities that keep the pets happy, stimulated, and feeling loved in their owners' absence.
