Information Wayne P. would like to know about your pet

Kindly let me know if your pup has any food allergies and special needs so that I can accommodate and you have a smooth transition.

A typical day

I like to get up early and first thing is feeding and then a long morning walk and belly rubs. Pups normally love to explore the back yard and lounge outside. I have balls and toys to play with too. After they have an afternoon walk they will get an afternoon yogurt treat or lick pad. Until the evening, the rest of the day is spent roaming the house, going in and outside or napping. Dinner is normally followed by an evening walk or visit to the dog park. Before retiring we will spent some time watching tv on the couch.

Pet care experience

I’ve cared for dogs for over 15 years — including my own pup, Blair — and I treat every dog like family. Whether it’s feeding, giving meds, or just some extra playtime and belly rubs, I’m all about personalized care. I offer safe, scenic walks around Lake Placid and always keep you updated with lots of photos. I also have a fenced yard for supervised playtime and flexible availability for last-minute bookings or weekend trips. Let’s give your pet a happy, stress-free experience while you’re away!

We had a good experience. Wayne kept us updated and gave us peace of mind while we were away. Macy looked happy and like she was at home. We highly recommend them and would definitely use their services again.

Wayne is the best dog sitter around. He keeps you updated with pictures of your pet on a regular basis. I just went to Jamaica for a few days and I received updates on Bear, my dog, everyday. Thanks again, Wayne, you’re the best.

Wayne took great care of Dakota! His dog is very sweet and got along great with my dog. He sent a lot of pictures to keep me updated while I was away and was very good at communicating. My dog enjoyed her own vacation at his house. Will definitely be booking with him for my next trip

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.
