Michael and Tracy are absolutely wonderful! They watched our two pups while we went to a family wedding and we didn't worry once. We were able to enjoy our time and knew our pups were in great hands. The updates and pictures we received while we were away showed us how comfortable our dogs were with both Tracy and Michael. Plus Tracy made sure to keep track of our pup's medicine schedule, which was a cherry on top to making us feel as ease. We can't recommend them enough! Thanks so much Michael and Tracy!

My dogs love staying with Sean and Tracy! They take such good care of them. We are so relaxed when we are away because we know they are in very good hands.

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.
