“We can't say enough good things about Katrina and Jason (and family!) and the amazing care they provided our dog. We had to make last minute care arrangements, and this was the first time we have used Rover. Not only did they graciously accept our request on short notice, but they went above and beyond in every way. They were incredibly responsive and sent us regular updates, complete with adorable pictures of Barrett having a blast. It completely put our minds at ease knowing he was in such loving hands. We could tell they genuinely cared about him and treated him like one of their own. We are so grateful to have found such wonderful people to care for our dog 🥰.”
“Amanda happily took on the task of watching our six month old mini goldendoodle Ronan for a few nights, the first that we'd ever left him alone. We had a great meet & greet prior and she made us feel extremely comfortable and relaxed and took the stress right out of our vacation with plenty of pictures and updates on how he was doing. It was a perfect experience and I'd recommend her and her wonderful family a million times over. Ronan was so well taken care of that he almost didn't want to leave when we came to pick him up!”
“Pearl and her husband have watched our pup Harold for the past two years and we absolutely adore her!
