About

District Attorney Turned Dog Rescuer Amidst the pandemic I, like many people, found myself without a job and stuck in pandemic lock down for months on end. After months of stillness and uncertainty, I had enough of sitting around waiting for something to happen. Having purchased my first National Parks pass the week pandemic lock downs began, I was eager to get my money’s worth from my newly acquired pass. As many national parks and forest began reopening and having been confined to my house and limited walks around the neighborhood for three months, I thought a few nights in the woods and under the stars would do me some good. In June of 2020 I set out for the Buffalo National River where I would spend five days and nights along the river banks, reacquainting myself with nature. As the weekend approached, I spoke with friends back home to see if there were any mentions of pandemic restrictions easing. The news from home was not positive, and I had a decision to make. In 9 hours, I could be back home, back to comforts and familiarity, back to my old life, back to the mundane. In 10 hours, I could be in the Colorado Rockies, into the unknown, into the wild, complete uncertainty, but endless possibilities for adventure. I chose the latter and the rest is history. For the next three months I would travel over 20,000 miles through some of the most beautiful and isolated parts of this country. Every day spent completely out of my comfort zone, every day a new life lesson, a summer of wonder, and the rarity of feeling truly alive. Prior to the pandemic I was already well aware that my heart was no longer in practicing law. Every day spent doing it was day spent doing something I did not like doing, something writer and orator Alan Watts referred to as “STUPID!”. No longer wishing to be “stupid” I set out in search of a career unburdened by the mundane. I wanted a life of adventure, filled with joy, and feeling alive. I knew the exhilaration of traveling the country and yearned for the possibility to continue my journey. As luck would have it, I stumbled upon CitizenShipper. Not expecting much from it, perhaps a trip once in a while to tide over my yearning for adventure until a new calling revealed itself, I was astonished that there was enough work to make it my full-time gig. Today I have completed over 400,000 miles of successful pet transports all over the country, and I’m eager to travel hundreds of thousands more miles. Every day I get to do this job, every time I successfully deliver a happy pet to a happy owner, it brings me endless joy I never found in any other work in my nearly 30 years of employment. If you have taken the time the read this, thank you! And if you care to join me on this journey, endless “thank you”s for the opportunity to continue living a dream!

Robert exceeded our expectations. Communication from start to finish was superb. Photos of our previous Mungo came along with status reports on a long journey. Thank you Robert.

Absolutely outstanding!! Robert gave 110%. I was blown away with how thorough he was with our pet relocation which had many moving parts and required communication with several people to make it all work. A true professional and an amazing and kind person. I cannot thank him enough or recommend him more highly. His cost is absolutely reasonable especially for the service that he provides.

Robert was incredible. I couldn’t be happier with the service I received! Robert drove my golden retriever all the way back to Texas and took amazing care of him the entire trip. He sent me picture updates every few hours, which gave me so much peace of mind. He was incredibly kind, professional, and punctual from start to finish. You can tell he truly cares about the animals he transports. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a safe, reliable, and thoughtful pet transport service!

Very attentive and professional. Takes exceptional care of your pet. Will provide you with frame worthy pictures of your pet in transit. Being a talented photographer is an unexpected and much appreciated bonus.

Where do I start! Robert was the best dog handler I could have asked for. He took care of Samson so well and brought him home safely. In his own private vehicle!! Very well priced as well for the service. Super happy and would totally use him again

RM pet couriers was the easiest service I've ever experienced. Robert was very professional and quick to respond. The open communication was outstanding! I've never used a service like this before and Robert made it so much less stressful. My family moved from California to Kentucky and we were unable to bring our dog on the plane due to his breed. It was hard to find someone willing to move a pit bull mix weighing 80lbs but Robert cared for him like any other dog. Robert also shares pictures and his location the entire trip. I would definitely use RM pet couriers again and recommend to anyone moving their pets short or long distances.
