“Emily and Scott were great. They were flexible and easy to coordinate with in what would be best for my pups. They were also responsive and I was happy there were patient with my trio.”

Since being in school I have my own pet cats and guinea pigs and have also experienced the responsibility of administering medicine and caring for them after vet visits.

For doggos I understand the importance of the need for walks and outdoor time, and for all animals playtime and cuddle time! For drop-ins these will be priority, along with feeding and watering of course!

“Rebecca was super friendly and easy to communicate with. I am on my way home to see my dog now but based on the notes and photo, looks like it all went well! I appreciated the feedback on how everything went.”

“Gretal is wonderful and amazing. I injured my leg and couldn't do long walks with my boy. After reviewing Gretel's previous reviews, I choose her. She did not disappoint. She listened to what my dogs reactivities were, what could make him aggressive. Since he is a rescue and isn't always good around crowed areas. My dog absolutely fell in love with her on their first meet. I will absolutely choose Gretel for walks again for my dog. Very good with communication and love the updates on my Rover Card.”

Peterborough dog parents share their Rover experiences
Scott is wonderful with my slightly crazy poodle. It was only the second walk and Murphy recognized him from the window and about lost his mind in excitement. He has come back happy and exhausted after just a half hour walk so I know he's getting a very good and quick paced walk. It's so nice to be able to entrust him to someone who my dog clearly enjoys and is giving him what he needs.

Loghan has been a great fit for my energetic doodle Charlie, who has loved getting out for his walks with the group. I was also very comfortable leaving Charlie for overnight boarding as I know he's very well cared for. Loghan is friendly, professional and a great communicator. I would definitely recommend him.

Shae was available for a last-minute booking and came the next day for a quick meet and greet with our pup. We booked two dog walks for the day, and she fed our cat and dog on the second visit. She also spent an extra 15 minutes with our dog on the second walk! Her communication was prompt and friendly. Would definitely rebook her services!
