Large fenced yard will run with dog

My family and I are Christians. I was making plans to get my son a dog once he started working this summer. His big sister, who is now 20, worked at Ripleys Aquarium before she joined the Airforce a year ago. He wants a job there this summer just so he can learn more about animals. He is a natural around dogs and other animals. He is an honor role student who wants to be a vet one day. While I was out walking in my neighborhood, I ran into a sweet lady who told us about Rover.com. I thought how perfect is that. We get the love and warmth of a dog, and I will be able to teach my beloved son about responsibility and helping others. Your dog will get the love and care that you would expect and will be completely safe with us. The last dog I owned was a Staffordshire Terrier. We loved him. His resting place is in my home Bermuda.

Karla was absolutely amazing with my dog, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. From the moment I met her, she was so sweet, welcoming, and genuine. I immediately felt comfortable. I was extremely nervous leaving my dog for days because he has never stayed anywhere without me before, but he seemed to warm up to her very quickly and looked genuinely comfortable and happy in her care. My dog is a pit bull and has not been fixed yet, and a lot of people are hesitant with certain breeds, so the fact that she gave him a chance meant so much to me. What really helped ease my anxiety was how great she was with communication the entire time. Karla constantly sent pictures, videos, and updates about how he was doing, what he was up to, and how he was feeling. She never made me feel out of the loop, and her updates honestly made such a difference because I was so nervous about leaving him. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches and wants both the pets and owners to feel comfortable. I would recommend Karla (and her husband) to absolutely anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and patient with their pets. She made a very stressful experience feel easy and reassuring for me, and I’m so grateful for how well she treated my dog. I truly hope it was just as worth it for her as it was for me, and I would absolutely trust her to watch him again in the future. 100000/10 recommend!!!!

Once again, Karla came through for us and more importantly, for Vinny. She keeps us informed during the day with a short text or video — just enough to reassure us. Vinny now knows Karla — he gets excited when we pull into the neighborhood and wags his tail when he sees Karla. When talking to Karla, it is obvious that she can assess a dog’s personality and knows how to make them comfortable. I highly recommend Karla!
