Dogs are really angels! I’m back!

Pet care experience

I have a very dog friendly home with a dog door accessible to a large fully fenced in yard. If your dog enjoys swimming during the summer months, my pool is dog friendly. I enjoy sending photos and videos of your pup(s) all day long.

Very communicative, gave regular check-ins and my pup looked like he was on vacay the whole time. Thank you so much, Margaret!

Margaret took great care of Mac! Loved all the videos that she sent and the fenced in back yard.

Margaret took great care of our 2 dogs over the weekend in her home. She sent regular updates, photos and videos. Our dogs were very comfortable in her home and enjoyed plenty of outdoor time. We would definitely book another Rover sit again with Margaret.

I had a fantastic experience with Margaret ! She treated Phoebe like her own dog, taking her for long walks and providing excellent care. Phoebe enjoyed staying at her place and had a blast with her dog Luna. I highly recommend her services!

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.
