Mary was wonderful! We did a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure the match was good. Our Great Dane had a wonderful time and communication was awesome!

Bogey had a great time at Mary’s house. Mary did a great job of communicating and asking about any special requests or needs. I would definitely let Mary watch Bogey again!

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.
