I've had animals my entire life and feel as though I've been a part of the Rover community for a long time. My roommates in University and post graduate were Rover lovers and boarded dogs in our house all the time. I would actually take care of the dogs for free while my house mates were at school or work- and LOVED IT! I've also loved caring for my beloved Boxer, Sunny, over the years and she lived to be 13 1/2 years old. She brought me so much joy that I never thought was possible. Dogs and all animals bring out the best in people and I am happy to bring joy to their lives AND help out their owners. I currently work from home full time so I can be with your dog or cat all day!
