“Barrie is by far the best dog sitter that I have ever encountered. I loved the fact that she did a meet and greet with myself and my puppy, and instantly they bonded. The set up at Barrie’s house for my puppy was more than ideal, baby gates, kennels, food stations, and a large backyard. Thank you so much for watching and taking care of my puppy while I went out of town! Alicia Heckmann”

Clay dog parents share their Rover experiences
Absolutely perfect! Communication was great & my babies were so happy during their stay! I will definitely use her again. It's always scary leaving my babies anywhere but I just knew they'd be well taken care of after meeting Aimee & her dog Sammy.
Very friendly to our dogos and is very easy to work with as far as scheduling a sitter appointment. Would highly recommend for you dog watching needs.
Pictures and reports daily!!!! Loves your fur babies as much as you and her home is definitely your fur babies home for their stay!!!!!
I’m so glad that I found Rachel to watch my high energy labradoodle for the week! This is my first time using Rover so I was nervous about how my Max would do, but he loved it! Rachel took him on walks/hikes and sent me videos and updates every day. You can tell that she really loves animals and is very knowledgeable about them. Would definitely recommend letting her keep your fur baby!
