Kathy was great. It is clear to me that she loves dogs and she treated Betsy like family. Betsy seemed to feel the same way.

Kathy was amazing with Hartley! This was the first time leaving him with her and we were a little anxious about how he would do as he had just lost his big brother and had never been to a sitter without him. We recently moved to the area for the winter and were thrilled to find Kathy on Rover. She kept us informed with daily pictures and assured us he was doing great - especially because she had other dogs there that he could play with. I also loved that she has a big fenced yard where he would be safe. We will definitely be using Kathy again. Thank you so much!

The sitter arrange an interview ahead to see facility and made everything clear. I got pictures dail of my dog. I was relieved that he would not be caged. My dog loves to be held or sit very close and she accommodated him. I was very pleased. I picked him up a day early and consider the extra day paid as her tip. I will rebook in future.

Pets

A typical day

I live in a semi-rural area that has plenty of areas for walking. Does your pet like dirt roads? Yes? Ok, we will walk on dirt roads. Or, does your pet prefer a paved road? No problem. I live in an area with plenty of places to explore. Or, last but not least free run on my 1+ acre fenced in back yard. Fun activities can be as simple as throwing a ball or a bit more complex with nose training and a snuffle mat.
