Theo had a good familiarisation stay overnight with David before his main holiday with him in August and he got on very well. David kept us well informed of things and provided photos.

David did an excellent job of caring for both my dog and house. As a rescue dog, Arnold is not always perfectly behaved, but David did a great job of looking after him. Arnold became a little ill when I was away, and David was very proactive about taking him to the vet, keeping me informed of any updates, and carefully monitoring Arnold's condition. David was also a great communicator, with plenty or pictures and updates while I was away. I'd happily use David again.

First time my dog has stayed away and she settled as soon as we got to David’s, We were kept informed with pictures and videos. When we picked her up she was clearly relaxed Will be using David again, and would highly recommend Many thanks to David .

Doggy Day Care • Aug 10, 2022

David was clearly a dog lover and both dogs seemed happy to go back on the second day. David was very good at communicating and sent photos of Leo and Poppy. I would not hesitate to recommend David nor leave Leo and Poppy with David again.

Are there any particular habits to be aware of i.e are they good with other dogs, any aggressive tendencies, are they cat friendly etc. There could be many other things to include, write down any information you think may be important with respect to your dog and let me know before or on the first visit.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
