Pet care experience

Fun-loving family

I had a dog from the age of 10 to 25 when she passed away. We have two boys who love animals. We had fun helping take care of my parents dog when they would travel. We would try to teach her new tricks. It gives us an excuse to get out of the house and take walks. I work full time until June 7th and then I’m home all summer. We have a small fenced in area and then a large common area behind our house. We live in a neighborhood where we take daily walks. We are always outside.

I was thrilled with the care Gibby received during his stay with Melissa, Nicolas and their boys. With plenty of pics and plenty of updates, he seemed very happy and content. Thank you!

It was amazing experience for our pup! Roy got a lot of attention and didn’t look like he wanted to go back home 🙂 Thank you, Melissa and Nicolas, for such a warm dog stay.

Melissa and Nicholas were wonderful, very communicative and made us feel like our fur baby was well cared for. Very easy to work with, and they sent pics and videos daily

Very nice family. Appreciate they were able to be flexible for a last minute booking. I can tell Molly had a great time and got a lot of love and attention.

Melissa and Nicolas did a great job taking care of our dog Bowie. It was the first time we’ve used Rover before so we were a little nervous to leave him for a week. He has some anxiety issues, so that was a big concern. Melissa had dealt with a few high anxiety dogs before and assured us that he would be in good hands with her and her family. When we picked him up he looked well-kept and happy. We were thankful to have found Melissa and Nicolas! ?

Schedule

Nick works from home on Fridays, but works 7 minutes away and can come home during lunch to check on the dog and take him/her for a walk. We are usually home between 2:00 and 3:00. Our weekends are pretty much free. Taking care of dogs easily fits into our family schedule. We try to spend as much time outside as possible, so we would bring the dog on our walks and runs.
