Pet care experience

I have always had dogs and cats growing up, but I’ve had my own for the past 15 years! I’ve met a great friend from originally being strangers and me caring for her fur babies. I’ve rescued all of my pets, including my dog who I’ve had since he was 4 weeks old.

I had a busy week and Melanie helped take care of my baby while I was gone. I have a reactive pupper and she was so kind and understanding and knew exactly how to handle him. Me and Bucky were so glad to have her there this week!

Melanie accepted a very late booking request and was amazing! She even made sure to check in once I got home from vacation to make sure my cat was still doing well!

Melanie is so amazing and sweet! She went above and beyond taking care of our dog and cat. As first time Rover users, we realized very quickly that we had nothing to stress about leaving our babies with her. We will definitely be booking with her again, thank you Melanie!!
