“Matt took great care of our pup while we were on our honeymoon. Before we left Indy had a cut on his foot that required him to wear a bag on his foot and to be wiped with medicine after returning inside. Since this happened the day before we left we didn’t really have a chance to get him used to the process. Matt went above and beyond to care for Indys paw injury and kept us updated. We would highly recommend Matt!”

Abington pet parents share their Rover experiences
Barb was amazing! She stayed at our house for five nights to watch our large pitbull. Not only was our dog happy when we returned, but our house was kept in perfect condition. I think it was even cleaner than we left it. We would love to have Barb watch our dog again.
It was clear from the initial meet and greet that Matt was 100% committed to ensuring my dog, who is shy and anxious around new people, would feel comfortable with him when he stayed with her. He impressed me with his knowledge of dog behavior as well as his professionalism. When one of my dogs suddenly passed away two days before his stay Matt took everything in stride and went out of his way to not only ensure my remaining dog was ok but also provided regular updates and pictures to reassure me that she was fine. Following Matt’s stay it was clear that he had a clear attention to detail as the house was exactly how we left it- he even took the trash out for us and left a few lights on when he heard we would be back in the evening. Thank you Matt for everything you did for Luna during your stay!
Alex is the best! We truly appreciated the photos and updates and felt very secure with Alex’s confident and caring approach. Our home was left in pristine condition and our dogs were content and relaxed! Highly recommend Alex, especially if you have dogs who can be a little slow to warm up to new people.
