Our pooch is getting up in years and boarding him at a kennel was not in his best interest. We found Susannah and Richard through the Rover app and had them look after our doggo while we were on vacation. They provided a quiet and relaxed setting with walks and plenty of attention. We couldn’t have been happier with Susannah and Richard and will definitely use them again.

Susannah showed up on time and is very nice.. We really like her and her husband Rich, they are great with my dog Hammy..I didnt ask for her to walk Hammy and she did, I appreciate that.. He was a happy dog when i returned..I'm absolutely sure I'd ask for either of them to watch my pets again, and again..I totally trust them..nice people Thankyou Susannah

Susannah and Richard were exceptional "foster parents" to our dog Remy for two weeks. They were attentive to his needs and behavior, notified us of an allergic reaction (cause unknown), took Remy to our vet (problem resolved itself) and took him on hikes and provided plenty of play. Plus, gave him a couple pills per day. They are wonderful people! I wholeheartedly recommend them to take care of your canine loved ones!

Information Susannah & Richard D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any stressors that cause a big reaction (dogs barking, prey drive on walks, delivery drivers, etc). It is helpful to know in advance.

A typical day

I start the day with a long walk on a nearby fire road, along with any play (such as throwing the ball) to get a thorough exercise. There are brief walks and play moments throughout the day, then another good walk in the late afternoon/early evening. We use 4 different routes in different open space and neighborhood areas.
