I have seen in some grocery stores in Texas have Rover gift cards, now! Add that in with a holiday card and some home made treats.

personal experience, here

A few years ago, my best friend asked me to dogsit for her while she was out of town. She had a greyhound mix that was sick and she felt wasn’t going to be around much longer. Before she went out of town, we drove up to the vet office & she put her CC on file in case anything happened. She also left the vet office number and her neighbors home number. Three days after she went out of town, her dog passed during the night. I called her to break the news to her & asked what her wishes were for Daytona. She wanted me to text the neighbor (who loved her dog) & invite her over to see her. Shortly after I took her to the vet and had her cremated (this was my friends request). I made sure her dog bed was clean and that her other dog had as much attention and affection as possible. It was a very emotional few days and I’m sure I sat on the couch for almost the whole day & didn’t move. To this day, though, my friend tells me she is indebted to me & wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to take care of her.

I have thought of the exact same idea! I am in the DFW area (Mansfield) if anyone is in the area!

Leaving a small gift for your clients is a thoughtful gesture and it will almost 100% ensure you are going to get a good review on Rover. One of my clients gave me a 5 star review and she shared my profile on her social media account, which multiplies my exposure. Stop by a local pet store and grab a few toys that are on clearance. Check the greeting card aisle for some cute Thank You cards. Rover provides them on their website, too.

In the card, speak about your experience and ask if they are going out of town soon to please consider booking you again with their pet. A P.S. note could be "please take a minute to review your experience with me as ___'s dog sitter on Rover".
