Karen and Chris were 5 star!! First time Rover users so we were a bit nervous about leaving our pup, but, WOW!! She sent pictures each night of our Lexie. Our dog ate her food so much better than when we used kennels. Took her for walks. Personal play time. Truly so happy we chose Karen and Chris. Highly recommend and will use again. Our dog came home happy and that made us happy. Great job Karen.

Karen and Chris were great with our cat! He can be a bit annoying looking for attention but they were patient and he was spoiled and well cared for. Looking forward to booking with them again.
