Let me know if your dog has any special needs or preferences. I understand that each dog is differnt and requires a different level of attention.
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.
