Run, walk or play; happy to help!

Pet care experience

I have owned and loved dogs since a young age. I have had multiple roommates with cats and dogs that I have loved as if they were my own. I understand how important trust is with animals and how to get an animal to trust me.

I have used Travis twice now and recommend him highly! He responds quickly, arrives on time, and gives a full report with pictures. I highly recommend him.

Travis D was beyond wonderful. As anyone that might be thinking of trying Rover for the first time, I can tell you that my partner and I were a bit nervous about having someone we just met not only drop in and take care of our beloved cat, but also drop into our house and trust them. Once we met Travis D in person, we felt very confident in him and also, loved his positive energy. Travis went above and beyond in not only bringing in our packages into our home when we were not there, but also making sure that our Pet was happy and taken care of. I recommend Travis to any other Pet parent out there and will also say that Travis is not only easy to get a long with, but very responsive and responsible, which was important to us. We will be re-booking for sure into the future. Thanks again for all of your support.

Last minute trip. Travis didn’t hesitate even though one of our dogs just had surgery. Filled up large water bowl jug and made sure dog could get around with cone. Appreciate all his thoughtfulness when caring for our animals.

Travis did a fantastic job of caring for my big black rescue cat named Princess. He took special care to remove his shoes before going on carpeted areas. He made sure her long hairs did not accumulate. He took pictures AND videos of my lovely cat that I missed so much. Can’t say enough about Travis. He was fantastic!!!

Safety, trust & environment

I make sure an animal trusts me first before getting in their space. I can match an animals energy level. If they want to run, jump and play then great! If they take some time to warm up to me and coaxing for me to gain their trust that’s great too! I am always happy to learn what type of care an animal needs to feel safe.

Information Travis D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if they have a favorite toy or where there favorite scratch spot is. Always happy to practice tricks with dogs for treats. Lastly, if there’s anything abnormal that startles them (UPS truck, airplanes, larger animals on walks, etc.) so I can provide them with the best care.

A typical day

I’m open to any and all activities your pet prefers! I can take them on a run, play fetch, play tug of war or just lounge with them. I often go to Pismo Preserve and Johnson Ranch Open Space.
