Pet care experience

The 1st booking was at the end of December 2018 and I never would have imagined how Rover was going to change my life yall 🩷🩷 There’s a big difference between a dog adjusting and a dog truly uncomfortable. observing and make decisions based on long-term well-being and not just the booking in front of me we all want happy safe dogs ☺️

Ruby was GREAT!!! Reading thru her reviews, they are all SPOT ON!, I don't know what I can add, that would be different? I love how she is in frequent contact with us (& sending the videos-oh my goodness! Those are GREAT & reassuring!) She's not afraid of a spazzy puppy! Lol! She knows how to work with all the different personalities of all the dogs & keep them safe! I was SO comforted that our puppy was with her. (This was the 1st time we left him) He was played & interacted with, and I KNOW he just LOVED it!! I HIGHLY recommend Ruby! ❤️

Penny was with Ruby and her "pack" for an extended stay this time. Based on the videos Ruby sent, Penny had a wonderful time playing and romping with her new friends! The socialization Penny gets when she's with several other dogs is so good for her. Penny was actually rather sad for a few days after she came home. I'm pretty sure she was missing her pals! Thanks so much, Ruby!

Another great stay with Ruby! She’s super attentive to Sky’s need to meet new dogs in a calm way before she full-on joins the pack!
