1. Jessi B.
“Jessi is my first Rover experience and I’m beyond delighted with how well it went. Jessi arrived on time and bonded immediately with my dog, Jake. Meanwhile, Jessi’s experience, kindness, and calm manner put me immediately at ease. Jessi listened closely to my instructions, gave me their perspective, and we confirmed we were on the same page with plans for the walk and exercise session, including the route they would take. Jake is a large and energetic Standard Poodle, although with excellent leash manners, and Jessi had no problems or concerns handling him. Jake was delightedly leaping around Jessi on their return, and Jessi shared great photos and a helpful report of their walk. I do hope to use Jessi again and frequently ahead. Also, Jessi is a super talented pet photographer!”
