Linda and Dwight treat our boy like family and they'll do the same for your dog! I never have to worry about a thing when he's with them, and not only am I usually a worrywart but our pup has special needs as well. Thanks, you guys, for taking loving care of Win and for always going that extra mile. ❤️

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
