Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alma
Emily was a lifesaver when my mom had a heart attack and I had to travel three hours away to take care of her. Emily came over the day before to get all the instructions and find out where everything is. She also took special care knowing that our dog was terrified of storms. And don’t you know, it stormed nearly every day. She texted me caring and thoughtful observations about my dog, and whether or not she was scared, excited, or just worn out. I will absolutely book Emily again for all my pets!
