Dylan J.
“Dylan is like our trusted dog dad surrogate! We've been so lucky to have him work with us, our concerns, and our wonderful but semi-reactive, hard-working shepherd named Kylo. Dylan taught Kylo invaluable skills like how/when to rest and chill out, recall, and leash pulling and reactivity. It's really saved our relationship with our dog because before Dylan's training--he was constantly looking for stimulation and driving us insane. We get compliments with how much of a good, well-behaved boy Kylo is and we owe a lot of that to Dylan. We've done training and boarding with him; he's also shared his insight and provided personalized training approaches to the humans and our little guy. He's the only person that we feel comfortable keeping Kylo for any real stretch of time. We know that he loves and cares about dogs, he's really approachable, and he's been supportive, patient, and non-judgmental when we've described our challenges over time. I've already recommended Dylan to a close friend and she also loved him. Excited to sing his praises on Rover as well!”


Kenzie C.

Dawn M.
“Choosing Dawn through Rover was the best decision I made for my beagle, Cliff. From the moment we met Dawn, it was clear she has a genuine love for dogs. She took the time to understand Cliff's routine, quirks, and favorite activities, ensuring he felt comfortable and loved while I was away. Dawn provided regular updates and photos, which reassured me that Cliff was in great hands. I highly recommend Dawn to anyone looking for a caring and responsible dog sitter through Rover. She's become a trusted part of our extended family!”

“To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Alexis Lawhorn for pet care services. Alexis has been babysitting my two dogs, and I couldn’t be happier with the exceptional care she has provided. Throughout her time with my pets, Alexis has shown great responsibility, genuine affection, and strong attention to detail. She made sure my dogs were well-fed, exercised, and happy every day.
