Michael took care of my dog for 9 days and took a great care of her. She came home happy and healthy. Will use him again in the future.

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.
