“Thank you so very, very much. Dorothy went beyond the call of duty in taking great care of my puppy and giving I'm plenty of exercise and fresh air. He slept most alleviating after picking him up! Ha!”
“Shae and Celeste got along so well! Her big yard and dog ginger created an ideal environment for Celeste to feel safe and happy! We were most relieved to get periodic updates about her status during our trip. Celeste was responding really well to Shae and while she often doesn’t come to my husband and I when we call her, she was happily coming to Shae when she called her which showed us that she had a great time at Shae’s place.”
“Tucker had a wonderful day with Briana while we enjoyed Mackinaw Island! We are grateful to have found someone to take good care of him for the day. She sent lots of pictures and updates, and did all the things he loves to do. He had undivided attention as there were no other pets there at that time. We hope to visit again next year! Thank you Briana!”
“Ashley was AMAZING! She treated my sweet kitty so well and was extremely attentive to her as well as responsive. She would send me multiple pictures and videos a day and calmed all of my fears of leaving my girl for so long!! Highly recommend her and will definitely book her again in the future ❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“This was only our second time using Rover and I think Dana has now spoiled us. I'm not sure anyone else will be able to compare. Dana was so laid back! I was worried about my pup with her pups. She wasn't - and she was right. I received daily updates and photos and when I picked Mabel up, she continued to follow Dana around - which is very unusual for Mabel. She is very attached to me, which makes it hard to leave her. But Dana won her over and I was so happy to see that!”
“My family had Erica watch our puppy Oliver while we went on vacation. She did an absolutely amazing job with him. He got to play with her two dogs and go on lots of walks during the day. Unexpectedly she found a tick on him and took him into the vet to get him checked out. She went above and beyond to make sure Oliver had a fun and safe time. My dad was worried sick about leaving his puppy with a stranger, but Erica sent him multiple pictures throughout the day, and I think that's the only reason we didn't turn back for Oliver. I would recommend Erica to anyone that needs their dog to be boarded for any length of time and we will be booking her again.”
“Peter took great care of our dog. We were very comfortable leaving her for 3 days, which we don't do very often. Peter made sure Elsie was exercised fed and warm! Also was flexible with our changing schedule.”
About: Animals love me for my calm, loving demeanor. I am a good pack leader and provide a safe and fun place for your fur baby while your away. I am retired with plenty of time on my hands. It gets lonely at times so I enjoy the company of both dogs and cats. I have a large yard with room to roam, sniff and play away from others and a large kennel. You can trust that I will take just as good of care of your fur babies as I do my own.
“Jessica and her husband took such great care of our pup. It’s clear that they love their own pets and show the same care and affection for the ones that they take care of through Rover. They gave plenty of updates throughout his stay and were very easy to communicate with. It’s great to know we have someone to watch him going forward when we’re in the area.”
“We are st thankful that we found Jennifer! Our dog Zac was very comfortable with her and his new buddy, Willow. Jennifer was so accommodating to all of Zac’s habits and routines and she sent texts and photo updates, which eased our anxiety:) We won’t hesitate to use Jennifer again!”
About: In over 30 years of grooming and caring for dogs and cats, I’ve gained valuable experience in making them feel comfortable and at home. ❤️ I am currently working part time and have a variable schedule. I am able to take breaks to return home and accommodate all the pets needs. we have a nice backyard that has an invisible fence with a mature, small little dog to play with your pets. He is both cat and dog trained.
“Princess absolutely had a great time & loved the special attention to her needs. Highly recommend& will definitely book again when we’re back in the area! Thanks for caring for our special girl!”
