Full-time dog lover!

Pet care experience

I am a work-from-home biomedical research scientist currently living in Columbia City with my partner and our 2 year old rescue pup! I am well-experienced as a dog sitter and walker, and am happy to come to you for any of your dog-sitting and walking needs :)

My pup had another great stay with Vivek. Plenty of updates on their adventures throughout the weekend.

Vivek was an amazing sitter for our corgi, Milo, during our ~3 week vacation out of town; this was the longest our dog has ever been in someone else’s care. He was attentive to our detailed care instructions and ​actually followed through and enforced the rules we had asked him to. (ex. discouraging jumping on people, begging for food, etc.) Vivek was also very communicative and responsive both leading up to boarding and throughout; he asked thoughtful questions beforehand to ensure he really understood our dog's care needs. During the stay, we were updated the perfect amount with photos and videos of Vivek and Milo’s activities together and were able to enjoy peace of mind during our trip! Our dog can become anxious in new environments with different sounds / smells; however when we picked Milo up you could just tell how attached and comfortable he was with Vivek. We've Rovered several times in the past and none were as great with our dog as Vivek was. He will definitely be our go-to guy! Vivek is a very friendly and responsible guy and we definitely recommend him to anyone looking for someone to care for their fur-baby with a loving eye! :)

Roxxi had another great stay with Vivek. Plenty of pictures and updates showed me the great time that she had while I was away.

Vivek is an easy-going and intelligent guy who loves dogs. He is gentle with dogs and is genuinely interested in giving the best possible care. He’s attentive and playful: two characteristics that will ensure your dog will love your choice to go with Vivek.
