Liza was generous with her time in our meet and greet session. Our first trip was over a week, so we were really cautious because Prancie needed a lot of work when we rescued her initially. Liza was patient, despite having many years of dog watching experience. Prancie was both physically and psychologically injured when she arrived at the humane society. The physical wellness returned promptly with proper diet and medications. However, it took us about 18 months of near constant companionship with a family member to get her over severe anxiety and human territorial behaviors. We had very successfully left Prancie with our single female friend, but she didn’t have any pets. We know Prancie bonds especially well with women. It was Liza wasn’t a long time friend who Prancie had met often and she would be competing for human interaction with other dogs. So we were very methodical with Prancie’s meet and greet. She checked out the yard and liked Liza’s dog a lot. Prancie also meet another couple dogs whose time was intersecting with ours, some were not as interesting to Prancie but we felt the constant of Liza’s dog s would help Prancie adjust to pack play with a constant Buddy. Liza was excellent in sending us Prancie updates. She’s personable to us also. It’s a comfort for fun pic updates to be waiting you have an opportunity to look at iphone. Communication is so important when you travel outside of US or on a ship. Prancie is used to sleeping on her blanket at foot of our bed, (she has steps to go up and down.) So Prancie ended up liking Liza’s dog’s bed more than her main living area bed that we brought over for her. Prancie apparently just made herself at home in Brodie’s bed. It was a good signal that Prancie was adjusting to being a dog, amongst other dogs. It turned out to be such a long, “initial,” Rover stay because the house sitter booked months earlier, had an elder family health emergency that week. So we feel finding Liza was a good outcome from our first time ever using Rover. We looked at multiple opportunities before finding the match we felt was best human personality for Prancie. Liza reported she did okay with the other dogs as well and Prancie is welcome back anytime. We don’t travel without Prancie very often. However, it’s great knowing if something ever comes up, we can quickly find an available home sitter through Rover that is already vetted, etc. Our anxious baby came home after 8 days away just as calm and doting with her loving eyes as if she had been at home with house sitter. Very different outcome with constant familiarity of Liza and Brodie then if we boarded Prancie at a kennel with chain link fences. Liza laundered Prancie’s blanket for us too. She’s just a considerate, “class act.” Prancie came home very relaxed.

Liza was able to take my pup on very short notice. She took great care of her and gave me such peace of mind! Very friendly host! Will book again when I’m in the area :)
