Southwest dog parents share their Rover experiences
We’re so grateful for this sweet couple! They watched our baby boy Milo for two days while we celebrated my birthday and truly cared for him like he was their own. They kept us updated with the best photos, took him on walks, played with him, and gave him so much love and cuddles. It gave me so much peace of mind and was the first time in a while I didn’t feel anxious leaving him with someone new. Thank you both so much for taking such amazing care of him! We can’t wait to visit Raleigh again so Milo can see you both!
Daisy had a great weekend with George and Cowboy! George sent plenty of video and picture updates, and maintained excellent communication throughout her stay with him. Daisy got some good exercise in and was pooped once she got home. 10/10 recommend George to look after your pets - we'll certainly be utilizing his services again!
Maya is a wonderful sitter. She took such good care of our furbaby and it was so comforting to know that she was in great hands. Maya is very attentive, easy to communicate with and sent constant updates on how our furbaby was doing during the whole stay. We were so happy with Maya and will definitely book with her again.
Kelly was amazing! We reached out last minute to see if she could watch Hamilton, and she didn’t hesitate for a second. She took such great care of him and treated him like one of her own. She was quick to respond, communicative, and made the whole experience completely stress-free. We’re so grateful and would absolutely book with her again!
