Pet care experience

Travis speaks the language of dogs!

When I provide house sitting services, my objectives are for you to feel comfortable in allowing me to spend time in your home (I do my level best to keep your home as if I was never there), manage the schedule you have already established with your pet(s) and be prompt and responsive. My ultimate goal is to provide you a worry free solution to care for your pets so that you can truly enjoy your time away. I have had dogs most of my life so there are very few situations that I have not seen and dealt with before. Finally, I have been a part of Rover for multiple years and I take your home and my responsibilities seriously.

During the first meeting with Travis I felt confident that he would take excellent care of Banjo and he did not disappoint! I would happily leave my dog in his care again and would highly recommend him to anyone needing animal care.

Complete peace of mind! Travis is clearly very passionate about his love and understanding of pets. He was incredibly consistent with check ins and very patient and loving with our two shepherd/malinois, one elderly and one young excited kiddo. Leading up to the scheduled sitting, Travis met with us twice, answered all our questions and also asked all the right questions. We were completely at ease during our vacation knowing Travis was caring for our boys. Thank you so so much Travis!!!

Travis took wonderful care of our dog, Buddy. Buddy loves to be outside. Travis not only did plenty of walks, but also played in the backyard with our pup. Buddy got exercise and attention. I think he misses Travis. The two got along great. We booked an overnight sitting and it worked really well. Travis sent us pics, videos, and updates on Buddy's eating, activity and mood so, we never worried. I would highly recommend Travis as a dog sitter.

Travis is wonderful about caring for our cats and makes sure that the dog gets his walks. We also got lovely photos of each throughout the stay. Travis was also very respectful of our home. We highly recommend him as a house sitter, cat sitter, and/or dog sitter!!

I have a process that I have used over the years that has worked very well. I would welcome a meet and greet with you and your pet to make sure that is the best situation for you, your pet(s) and me. Should we agree that my services are a good fit, I will schedule another visit prior to your departure to collect keys, codes, etc. This additional visit also provides another opportunity for your pet to get to know me prior to you leaving.
