Pet care experience

I previously had two dogs. One who had cancer. One that was elderly. I volunteer at the Brandywine SPCA doing dog handling and special events. I offer clients a warm and comfortable home to board their dogs. I am caring and confident working with all dogs, especially if they are not used to being boarded. I do not have a dog, so your dog would get 100% attention. 🐶

Kate was amazing, she took care of my dogs three times over the weekend. She played with them and fed them and sent me pictures while she was there. Great experience for my first time using Rover.

Kate was great to work with! She was very professional and made sure she knew our dog’s routine. She was very responsive as well. Lucy seemed to love her time there and we got great pics throughout. Would recommend!

It was our first time leaving Creamy with non-family members over night. And we needed to leave her for 8 days! We were naturally a bit nervous, but our worries were unfounded. Kate and her husband took care of Creamy so well. Every time Kate sent us pictures and messages, we felt Creamy was getting more and more comfortable being there. We will definitely leave Creamy with Kate again for our next trip!

Thank you Kate, and thanks for dealing with Ashes (the cat) too. We're happy that Lucy was cooperative after an interval of time.

Need to know if the dog is dog reactive or cat reactive. Need to know if they are friendly with any dogs in their neighborhood
