“I’ve said it once but I’ll say it again, I’ve worked with at least 6 people on Rover, and although all were great, none compare to Rebecca! You can really tell how much she loves pets and honestly nothing compares to the relief of knowing my doggo is in safe, loving hands. To say she goes above and beyond is an understatement, and I really hope you choose to work with her, although I’d love to keep her for myself forever. Rebecca is extremely flexible, compassionate, and committed. Thank you so much Rebecca for everything you do😭❤️”
