Fun for any dog

Pet care experience

I've been around dogs my entire life. Toby, my first dog, was 6 months older than me and died the day before his 17th birthday. I have a Yorkshire Terrier puppy now named Maude

This was the first time I used Rover and it was great. Xander took great care of my dog Max. He looked great when I picked him up and was happy. I will recommend Rover and Xander to others.

I think Xander did a good job caring for my two dogs. They looked happy and clean when I picked them up which is saying a lot because they can get messy quickly when playing outside. My dog Theo has pretty bad anxiety and Penny was very shy when she arrived. When I came to drop them off and before I left the house, Xander had my Penny in his arms and I could tell that she would love getting his attention and cuddles. I also felt reassured by the fact that caring for dogs is Xander's main work now so they would be well looked after and not left alone for long hours. He also has backup support in the event that he needs to go out for anything. Communication was prompt in that I received timely responses whenever I contacted Xander. Answers to my questions were somewhat short/brief and I didn't get much detail at the end when asking about their stay. However, I believe they were well taken care of and that is really the most important thing to any pet owner. Xander was also flexible which was a huge help after coming back on a very late night flight. All in all, I would highly recommend his services to others! Thank you so much for hosting my pups, Xander!

Everything went smoothly with this boarding. I think Xander took good care of my dog. I wish communication had been a little more forthcoming, but Xander did respond quickly to all my messages/questions.
