Although I personally have not owned a dog of my own, I was always surrounded by them.I would care for my friends and family's dog(s) when they were out of town or during the day to make sure they are played with. I do things like take the dogs on walks, bathe them, and till this day I volunteer at an animal shelter. I am well aware how much attention dogs need and know that they can indeed be full time job. I am so glad that Rover can offer a peace of mind to doggie parents that while they are hard at work, their pup is cared for and given some attention. I know that these dogs are a part of your family and I take that very seriously, and would treat your doggy with lots of love. It puts a smile on my face when I see wagging tails!
