I've had pets periodically throughout my life. Recently since going through the "Empty Nest Syndrome" I've been fortunate to fill the "Empty Nest" with two Yorkies who are brothers. Last February my husband decided to surprise me with a cruise to celebrate our anniversary and that's when I discovered Rover.com. I was apprehensive to go on this romantic get away without my "babies". After discovering and using the service my "babies" decided it was time to pay it forward and host stays themselves.
