We had a poor experience at Amy’s. I arranged a meet and greet, as I always do with a new dog sitter, the week before we needed someone to watch my dog, Fiddle. Amy had just broken up a scrap between two dogs but seemed to have a good handle on the situation and like she understood the different dogs’ personalities. Fiddle has stayed in a handful of Rovers before, including a larger operation like Amy’s and has always done well. My dog seemed comfortable there and we decided to book 5 nights. The evening of day two, I got a message from Amy stating that Fiddle had gotten into a fight, attacked and was stalking another dog there. This was shocking and very out of character for Fiddle who has never been in any type of fight, ever. She will occasionally growl at other female dogs but only a few times, ever, and I disclosed this at our meet and greet. So this was very upsetting to hear, but Amy was reasonable and we spoke over the phone where it seemed like it was just this one dog in particular and that sometimes these things just happen. Amy was also reasonable with a timeline to have a friend come pick her up the next day. If the ordeal had ended here this would probably be a 3-4 star review because to this point I thought Amy handled the situation well and was acting in Fiddle’s best interest to have her stay elsewhere. Then a few days later I received a message from Amy stating that the dog had a wound she hadn’t noticed, accusing me of knowing that there was a possibility my dog would behave aggressively, and that a trust and safety report was being filed against me and Fiddle. I would never put my dog or anyone else’s in a situation where there is a possibility of injury. Between the fight itself and the accusations, this was an overall stressful and terrible experience.

I think our pup lives her best life while staying with Amy. It makes our vacations more relaxing to know she is happy and safe!
