This was my first time using Rover and what a great experience. Nicole and I had great communication from the start. We had a meet and greet, and scheduled morning walks for the week. Nicole was always on time. She has a an experienced background working with larger dogs so I was very comfortable with knowing she could handle my Nala. My sweet Nala started waiting for her by the window in the morning and was sad to see her leave every morning. 10/10 recommend! TYSM Nicole :)

Nicole and her family were wonderful with my pug and French bulldog! They are a true dog family and Nicole has prior dog experience that was very helpful in terms of gauging behavior, interaction with other dogs, and any individual needs. They gave them lots of playtime as well as breaks/rest, asked good questions, and shared photos & videos. Nicole has a large fenced-in yard that my dogs loved tearing around in. Their family also were able to help on short notice when I had a family emergency out-of-state, which made a huge difference. Thank you SO much for caring for my pups!
