Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Wayne
I wrote out a bunch of instructions to try to support her and my pup as much as possible, and she read them ahead of time, asked clarifying questions, worked to incorporate my suggestions, and gave consistent updates throughout. So appreciate not feeling like I have to worry about my dog while I'm out of town!
She was phenomenal! Just so kind and patient with my dogs. I have a senior and a puppy (both small dogs) and she just went above and beyond for them and me! I truly cannot recommend her enough! If you’re in the area and can book with her I ABSOLUTELY would! Can’t thank her enough. She would send updates and photos daily answering questions comments and concerns. She really put me at ease and when I’m back I’ll book with her again!
Absolutely great! Our pup looked to be extremely happy and very well taken care of! Would definitely use again. She provides picture updates and quick response as well as flexible pick up and drop off times! 10 out of 10!! I would definitely book her and trust her with your furry friend!
I would absolutely recommend Geleea if you need a trustworthy,kind, and affectionate dog sitter. She took care of my Great Pyrenees while I was out of town, and gave me assurance that my dog is doing well by sending updates and pictures everyday. She put my mind at ease the whole time my dog was under her care. Thank you so much!!
My dogs are very needy and Allison & Nicholas catered to them! One dog has recently gone blind and she was carried and treated so well - making sure she knew where everything was. The other did food refusal because we were gone and they gently hand fed him - what a spoiled pup! Both dogs had wonderful outside time and were snuggled a lot. The daily pictures and videos made our hearts at ease. Thank you so much!!
Joscelyn and her family took such good care of Willow! My husband and I had no worries whatsoever about her staying with them and felt we could fully relax while we were away. I honestly think our dog had more fun with them playing with their dog than at our house 😂. We WILL be taking Willow over again when we have to be out of town.
Mikendra was nothing short of amazing! she was definitely a life saver. she came to our rescue when we were in a last minute desperate hunt for a sitter and she definitely delivered . Our fur baby was in good hands and well taken care of. And I like the fact that she keeps you updated with pics throughout the stay of your pet. I would definitely recommend her.
