“First time Rover user! Haley was polite and accommodating. She came last minute as I am recovering from surgery and my boys were getting stir crazy being confined to the house and the back yard. She was patient, observant and my boys loved her!”



“So I just want to say that Dean goes above and beyond to make my puppies happy. I was a little cautious about having someone come into my house while no one is home but from the second he stepped out of his truck I felt like my house and my pups would be safe. He’s great about working with your schedule and ultimately just wants your pups to get the love and playtime they deserve. So happy we found you, Dean!! He also sends me a picture of my dogs like every time he goes there which makes me so happy.”

“I just used Kristina to watch my little chihuahua while I went out of town for a week. My little guy does not like people and will not let anyone pick him up.
