Pet care experience

Dogs are people too. Fenced Yard.

As a family, we are active and love the joy that dogs bring to our lives. Our jobs are flexible and allow us time to spend with our furry guests. Both of our daughters want careers that help people or animals, and it shows in the way that they dote on our dog Willow and the guests that stay with us. We treat all of our furry guests like family. Our dog Willow is a very sweet and agreeable pet. She gets along well with other dogs and loves to welcome new friends to her home. We acknowledge that every dog likes their routine, so we will do our best to keep them on their regular schedule and keep them happy. We want to make sure that our guests are comfortable so we try to keep a similar routine to what they are used to in their own homes.

This was our first time using Rover. Shawn and Melissa were quick to answer any questions, and we immediately felt comfortable leaving our lab with them. They sent pictures of Ruby and she looked like she was taking a wonderful vacation too. When we picked her up she was happy (not stressed like when we would pick her up from boarding places) and immediately got back into her home life. It was really great to see. You are all awesome! We will definitely use again.

Fozzy LOVES Shawn and Melissa, and I do too! I have re-booked many times with them, and will continue to.
