“Hi. This was my first time using Rover.com I am so glad that I did. I went on vacation for a week and was so nervous about leaving my babies home alone. But, Dawn was so good with them that all of my worries were put to rest and I could enjoy myself. Dawn made sure that she checked in with me every day to let me know that they were ok. I will definitely be using Rover.com if I go away again and I will use Dawn again to take care of my Cats. Thanks Dawn!”
“Lisa Marie was fantastic with my boys! She sent me pics at every drop in and by the end even my less affectionate cat was loving up on her. She was very communicative and gave my two cats lots of playtime and love. It felt good to know that they were well taken care of! Usually my boys are full of energy after I leave them alone for a night or two, but they were very sweet and snuggly this time since Lisa Marie kept them busy with their toys! I will definitely use Lisa Marie again in the future.”
