Young couple missing furry friends!

Pet care experience

Both growing up with dogs, my wife and I are missing our own canine companion after moving to a new city. Although our puppy love knows no bounds, she likes the small and medium-size dogs, and I like the big ones! Your pup will feel right at home with us, with frequent walks and belly rubs. Happy to send pictures, videos and other updates to make you feel more at ease. With our staggered work schedule, your furry friend will only be at home by himself for four hours at the most Monday through Thursday, with Friday, Saturday and Sunday being devoted to one-on-one doggy/human time. Great with big dogs, little dogs, loner dogs, snuggle dogs, outside dogs, inside dogs and all the other kinds of dogs.

We used rover for the first time for an 8 night trip. Michael was super responsive and helpful before we went away. Hadley had a great stay and came back super happy. Would definitely recommend. Thanks again!!!

Michael and his wife were great with my dog, Ari. Ari was very excited to see them and he came home tired and happy. I would highly recommend booking Michael for your pet sitting needs!

Michael was great to work with, leading up to my dog's overnight stay with him. I hadn't used this service before nor had someone other than family/friends cared for my dog, so I naturally had questions and wanted to feel assured that my dog would be in good hands. Upon the initial meet and greet, I felt at ease with Michael, I felt he was capable, and I knew that he would enjoy taking care of my dog. Then, while my dog was with Michael, he did a great job assuring me that my dog was ok and that all was well. He sent brief messages and pictures. At the end of my dog's stay, he informed me of how it went overall. Michael was responsive from beginning to end, addressing any/all of my questions/concerns. He got back to me in a very timely fashion. I would certainly recommend Michael to care for your dog and I definitely plan to contact him the next time I'm in need of care for my dog.

Michael stayed with my guy Franklin overnight while I was out of town. He sent plenty of photos including ones with them enjoying playtime. Franklin can be a handful sometimes and has a medical condition but Michael took very well to him and all was great when I came home.
