Ian was great, easy to communicate with, and Jackson (my pup) loved it there! Wonderful dog-friendly environment and the other dogs there were all great 👍

Ian was great with Axel! Our boy is an anxious Rottie that needs someone who understands dogs with a history of abuse and being in the shelter. Ian knew exactly how to approach Axel, and he was constantly updating us on Axel and showing us he was having a great time. We were so at ease with Axel being in Ian's care!

First time using Rover. Ian took care of my pup while I was out of town. He made the process super easy and sent many pics of Kyrone while I was gone . Thank you again, Ian !
