I recently lost my dog after 11 blissful years. I signed up for Rover because I miss taking care of dogs and developing special bonds with them. I know that your pooch is like a member of the family, and I will be sure to treat him or her like one. I will love and take care of your dog like it is my own. I am an effective communicator, compassionate, responsible and reliable. I also understand the nervousness an owner feels when they leave their dog with a stranger, so I am happy to speak with you on the phone about your dog's routines and send you photos of all the fun we are having together. This will give you peace of mind so you can focus on your trip or whatever you are doing!
