1. Ann P.
“Outstanding, beyond my expectations; in dogs since 1991, this was one of my best experiences in having someone else care for my 3 fur kids. 1st time using Rover, since my regular sitter was not available: easy, wonderful communication, pictures provided of kids relaxing, great location -, gone 8 days, will be a repeat if Ann is available for my next trip. Please consider her and this service, both are a asset to the dog community.”
2. Brenda F.
“Brenda did an amazing job boarding my Tibetan Spaniel in her home. Her home was clean and soothing and I could tell my dog felt instantly comfortable. She had lots of dog toys and her house was set up to make sure dogs can be safe. She had baby gates around the front and back doors so dogs can’t rush out the door into the street. She also had a separate gated off area with a small doggie door through the gate so a small dog like mine could enjoy his food separately from a bigger dog. She had soft blankets on her furniture and my dog loved snoozing on them. She sent regular photo and video updates of him playing and snuggling and enjoying her lovely fenced in courtyard and yard. I could tell he was having the BEST time. I was so glad my dog got to go on a fun vacation too! We will definitely be boarding with Brenda again!”
