“First time using Rover, we have used typical kennel boarding before now. Amber and her family did a wonderful job according Nahla! I found Amber on Rover and was immediately pleased with the quick responses and assistance with booking. Nahla is our 3 yr old Cane Corso and Amber was attentive and super prompt and professional. I can't say enough good things other than we have found a best case option if we have to leave Nahla again Thank you Amber and we will see you soon!”
