I have a very large Great Dane who is sensitive to new people. Jo Anna put him at ease and sent lots of updates! I would absolutely have her back again!

Jo Anna was wonderful. Very attentive to our dogs and gave us peace of mind when we were away. Already booked her again during another trip.

Jo Anna was great! This was our first time using Rover and we loved it! We thought our dog would be more comfortable at home and Jo Anna did a great job making us feel at ease. We will be using her again!
