Having Richard care for my dog gave me great relief as a first time Rover customer. Everything seemed quite seamless. Richard was very welcoming and showed me some of the area of his home where my dog would be spending some time there. And the backyard was a nice big fenced in area!! Definitely would recommend his services and will utilize his help again!

Richard and his family were very welcoming and it seems that Ziggy had a great time at their lovely home. A plus was a fenced in back yard, where dogs can freely play without any concern. I would not hesitate to return for another overnight stay. Highly recommend this host as he obviously adores the company of dogs. Thank you, Richard!

In addition to his loving care, Richard is reliable, communicative, and professional, consistently delivering outstanding customer service and peace of mind. Jennifer M
