“My best friend Bernie… And energetic and very social beagle… spent a lovely six days with Zachary and his dogs. He was sad to go home, which made ME feel kind of bad but at least I know he had a good time! Zachary was an excellent communicator, and offered photos of Bernie during his stay. Large fenced yard.”
“I can't say enough wonderful things about Kim!! She was the perfect fit for my 8yr old Mal-Shi, Ella. She took such good care of my anxious little girl, giving her lots of love & comfort, as well as paying attention to the details of her care. She absolutely treated her like the queen that she is.”
“Kate was an amazing sitter! She made the entire process seamless, providing regular updates and adorable pictures of our dog. I highly recommend her and would absolutely book with her again!”
“I had a great experience boarding my dog (Bowser). Kristen was friendly, caring, and professional, and it was clear that she genuinely loves animals. I felt comfortable knowing Bowser was in good hands while I was away. Bowser was well cared for, happy, and healthy when I picked him up. Her home was clean and well maintained. Kristen sent me daily updates and pics. I can tell she took the time to make sure Bowser was comfortable and received the attention he needed. I truly appreciate the peace of mind Kristen gave me while I was away. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, caring, reliable and affordable place to board their furry family member. We will definitely be back! 🐾❤️”
“Jan was so very kind with my baby Bentley, she updated me and made me feel rest assured with check-ins and pictures. I was happy to leave my mini schnauzer with her as she also has 2 mini schnauzers which made my pups stay extra fun to have playmates. I loved she has a fenced in yard where the dogs can run & play and feel free. Bentley loved her attention and cuddle time. I'm very picky when it comes to my baby and wanted to not worry and I felt she made me relax he was in good hands. I will definitely call on her for the next trip!!”
“My Opal had a relaxing stay with Wyatt. She got to socialize with other dogs & there were no worries about her safety & care. Progress photos thru the week were comforting to receive. Wyatt gets my highest recommendation.”
“We had a great experience with Gabrielle! Everything went smoothly and Clover came home happy and well cared for. Gabrielle was so kind, communicative and easy to work with. We really appreciated the updates and attention she gave. Would absolutely book with her again!”
“Emily took such great care of our Myles! I recieved updates and pictures throughout his stay. I thought Myles wouldn't want to come home lol! I will definitely book with Emily anytime we need boarding.”
About: I’ve had a passion for caring for animals since I was a child. I have 25+ years experience ranging from dog walking to in-home boarding. I have two dogs of my own. I am also well-experienced with senior dogs and bring a very calm demeanor. I am currently taking a break from corporate life and have flexible availability! I am typically available any time M-F, though occasionally I travel on weekends. I have a fully fenced in yard with two dogs at home. My dogs are social and love meeting new friends! I know that it can be unsettling for a dog to stay in someone else’s home, but we’re pros at welcoming others into our pack!
“Thank you Danielle for watching both of our pups this time! I know they have the best time at your house and get lots of love and play time!! We appreciate you so much!!”
“Megan was a God-send for me. I needed a sitter to watch Gracie while my husband and I were on our honeymoon. 3 weeks before the wedding I had some car issues that resulted in added stress to me. Megan worked with me on getting things booked, and knowing that having Gracie taken care of w was so relieving during that time. Her kids were amazing with Gracie and we loved getting daily updates on our sweet girl. We will definitely use Megan and her boys for Gracie in the future. Thank you sooo much for loving our girl.”
“Asked Natasha to rescue my Great Dane (GD) from a negligent Rover provider who I had left my pet with for 6 hrs and had been locked into a filthy bathroom. Natasha then had to relieve my GD from high anxiety and aloneness. On top of that the filty previous orovider didnt maintain a clean house and left sugar, drugs, and other health hazards out in open in GD got sick and serious care of Diarrhea. Well Natasha took care of her and her belongings and her family kept her within their inner circle helping GD find courage to enjoy her environment and new friends. 2 days later I picked up a HEALTHY AGILE ..... FULLY energized and happy pup with no symptoms at all. My advice is Dont pass on Natasha, her family, her pets, and her boarding arrangements. She is a professional dog lover among the few Rover Royalty.”
“Aimee did an incredible job taking care of my dog! From the meet-and-greet we knew it would be a great match, but she sent lots of photos and gave my dog so much love I didn’t worry for a second while I was on vacation for a week. I’m looking forward to my next trip so my dog can go back and see Aimee and her family again!”
“We boarded our pup with Marie who takes the absolute BEST care of the dogs she watches. We call her our dog’s “second mom”. She sent so many awesome pics and updates through the weekend we were away. Our boy usually has separation anxiety, but he trusts Marie and did very well boarding over the weekend with her. He could not have been in better hands!”

“Monica did an excellent job watching our two cats while we were out of town. She’s very professional, and her communication was great! Our cats were very happy and well looked after. I would highly recommend her!”
“Katie was attentive to our two fur babies! She is our first official pet sitter and we are very pleased! We asked for small extras like getting the mail and watering a couple flower baskets during our vacation…she did that and more! She watered all plants during a heat spell and even brought back our garbage bins! Our normally shy kitty always came over to greet Katie upon her arrival. That made us feel very good! We are appreciative of Katie taking care of our two cats!”
“I’ve used a few sitters off Rover over the past few years and Dee is the first that my cat didn’t run or hide from! He felt very comfortable with her and I appreciate her attentiveness and communication. Highly recommend!”
“Highly recommend Amber. She took such good care of our cats. She even noticed a package at our front door and placed it on our kitchen counter. She checked the litter boxes, cleaned them every visit. You can tell Amber cares a great deal about animals. She always kept in communication with. We will definitely book with her again. Thank you Amber.”
“We had the best experience with Maria! She watched our cat for us for 1 week while we were out of town & it could not have gone any better. She dropped by twice a day, gave our cat plenty of love & affection, & sent us lots of pics & updates while we were away which we appreciated so much. Our cat can be very shy but she warmed up to Maria almost instantly & we knew she was in the best care while we were away. We will definitely be booking with Maria again & would recommend her to anyone needing a sitter for their furry friend :)”
About: I’ve owned cats for majority of my life and have watched them since I was in high school. I understand that every cat has a unique personality and respect their boundaries. I specialize in stress-free drop-in visits, keeping fresh water, clean litter boxes, and engaging play sessions. Always willing for a last minute drop in so feel free to reach out!
About: I’m experienced with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, interactive play, brushing (if your cat enjoys it), administering oral medications when needed, and providing companionship while giving cats the space they need to feel secure. I know that some cats love attention while others prefer a calm, quiet environment, and I’m happy to adapt my care to each cat’s unique personality. My goal is to make your cat feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your feline friend is in caring hands. I personally have 2 cats of my own!
“Dave was fantastic! He was quick to respond from my initial inquiry. The meet and greet was a success as I could tell my pup loved him right away. Dave was communicative, on time, and followed all instructions. He was tidy and respectful of my home. I felt so at ease knowing my puppy was in good hands and having fun and the photos showing how happy Corbin was were the highlight of my day. Thank you Dave for being so wonderful and taking such great care of Corbin. I know he'll miss you. Hope to book with you again and will absolutely suggest you to friends and family!”
“Awesome meet and greet :) So happy that we found a cat lover who was so understanding of our need. I also truly appreciated the willingness to come meet our fur baby prior to taking on his care. Yay! Brianne was careful to take notes and even reminded me of things I forgot. She’s very patient and kind.”
“Katarina was amazing! She really cares about the pets she is watching. She was fantastic watching our kitten and senior kitty for an entire week. I loved receiving the photos after each check in and it looked like the kitties were having a blast. She made sure each cat was comfortable and received the care they needed. Thank you for being such a wonderful cat sitter!! It helped ease our nerves while being away for so long!”
“Marie is our go to sitter for Hades. She is attentive and kind and sends the best pictures. She even brought him a little toy! We feel so comfortable knowing that she is watching our little lad while we are on our various trips. She is ✨literally✨ The best”
“megan you were absolutely fantastic! my cat loved her and you took fantastic care of her as well as my place. i appreciate you taking the time to see her during your holiday, you were great and i'll definitely be hiring you again in the future!”
“Becky made fast friends with our cat, provided a thorough description of each visit (with multiple photos), and really put us at ease while we were away. She gave treats, lots of lovies, scooped litter, and even brought our packages in for us. We highly recommend her and hope to schedule with her again!”

“Throughout the time my girls are in her care, I am regularly updated with photos and messages, which puts my anxiety at ease knowing that my dogs are in good hands. The heat is now becoming an issue, but Marie made sure to not over-extend, nor over exhaust my girls, especially my senior lady, making alternative “safe” choices for them while meeting their stimulation needs. Also another note, always very accommodating with my schedule, making drop-ins &/or daycare a seamless experience. Thank you!”
“Our dog has gone to Zachary’s several times for doggy daycare and he loves it! Each time he comes home happy and tired from playing with his dogs. Would definitely recommend!”

About: I’ve loved dogs my entire life, and now that I’m recently retired, I have the time to give them the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I treat every dog like part of the family—whether we’re going for a walk, playing fetch, or just relaxing together. With a calm, patient nature and a flexible schedule, I can focus fully on your pet’s needs and routines. You can rest easy knowing they’ll be safe, happy, and loved like one of my own. I am recently retired and am available all of the time. I currently have two small dogs of my own and watching an additional dog would be no trouble at all. If you dog stays with me, they will be treated just like my own pet. I am able to walk them, feed them special diets, or administer oral medication. I am home almost all of the time and can give them the attention they need.
“Catherine and Sean are very accommodating with sudden changes in my schedule. She sends regular updates and pictures about how my puppy is doing. She ensures my pup is mentally and physically stimulated. Weretlucky to use their services!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine passion for animals and my extensive experience in pet care. I am attentive to each pet's unique needs and personality, ensuring they receive personalized care and affection. My background and my commitment to maintaining a safe, loving environment further distinguish me as a reliable and caring sitter. I have almost 10 years of experience working with animals, mostly cats and dogs, and can say that I am one that both my family and friends can rely on when it comes to watching their pets. I am currently seeking to make dog walking/ pet sitting as my full-time job, so I am available anytime during the day or night to care for or walk any pet. When caring for pets in my home, I ensure they have a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of space to play and relax. I provide regular feeding, exercise, and interactive play sessions to keep them engaged and happy. I maintain a clean and pet-friendly home, and I am always attentive to their needs and behavior. In my friends and families homes, I follow their specific instructions and routines to ensure consistency and comfort for the pets. I provide the same level of care and attention, including feeding, walking, playtime, and administering any necessary medications. I respect the client's home, ensuring it remains clean and secure, and I communicate regularly with updates and photos to keep them informed and reassured.
About: I have always had pets of all kinds growing up along with much love for all wildlife. Currently I have 4 cats, 2 dogs, 3 fish and many snails, and a lot of plants! My dog growing up became diabetic (also blind) and I provided him supportive care for the remaining 5 years he had (including special meals and insulin shots)! I have rescued several cats and found loving homes after getting them medical care (I always keep in touch). One of my cats was a bottle baby after finding her on the side of the road at only 3 weeks old, she is now almost 2. I also provided supportive care for my two eldest cats (11years) after their major surgeries (perineal urethrostomy and gallbladder removal). I am also in the process of obtaining my wildlife rehabilitation permit for I always seem to be brought animals to care for and I would like to do more for them than just transporting to a rehabilitator! I have a lot of room at my house which includes the finished basement area with separate rooms, a mudroom, a large fenced in backyard, and kennels if needed. I'm willing to travel to you, or care for your animals here! All my animals are friendly (successfully introduced and integrated) but if yours needs some privacy I can absolutely provide it. I'm here to help, I hope it's clear how important your fur babies would be to me! I would love to make whatever it is you need happen. I am currently a stay at home mom with my own fur babies. My day starts at 6AM when I wake up to feed and walk the dogs and check to see if the cats need anything. I would be more than happy to care for your animal(s) here or get out of the house and care for them in their home! I have a large fenced in yard, a finished basement with separate rooms, a separate mudroom, and kennels if needed! My 4 cats and 2 dogs roam the house and would love to make new friends, but if your animals are shy, we have plenty of space to accommodate. All I ask is for a clear set of instructions if caring for your pet in your home and you can expect those instructions to be carried out with love and respect for your animal(s) and property. I am also insured for pet care/housesitting through PCI.
“Sarah was incredibly thorough and made sure that my dog felt comfortable in a new space! Thank you so much for your time and giving Lou Lou an incredibly fun experience.”
About: With 10+ years of hands-on clinical veterinary experience, combined with a lifetime of growing up around, caring for, and working with animals, I bring over a decade of cumulative experience in veterinary medicine, pet care, and animal husbandry. My experience with animals began long before my professional veterinary career and includes dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, cows, horses, and many other animals. This lifelong connection has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, care, handling, and well-being that extends far beyond the clinical setting. Throughout my veterinary career, I have consistently pursued continuing education through seminars, conferences, specialized training, and additional coursework to continually expand my knowledge and strengthen my clinical skill set. I have maintained **BLS and ALS CPR certification since 2020** and have been **Fear Free Certified since 2018**, along with holding numerous additional certifications, continuing education achievements, and awards earned throughout my career. The majority of my professional veterinary experience has been concentrated in **surgery, emergency medicine, and intensive care/ICU**, where attention to detail, critical thinking, and the ability to recognize subtle changes in a patient's condition are essential. These experiences have taught me to be highly observant and proactive, with a strong understanding of early warning signs and indicators that may suggest a patient is developing a problem. I take pride in being attentive to the small details that can make a significant difference in an animal's outcome. Pets are my passion, and pet people are my people. I genuinely enjoy building relationships with both animals and their families and believe exceptional veterinary care should be built on compassion, communication, trust, and a little fun along the way. Whether I am caring for a critically ill patient, assisting with surgery, supporting a fearful/nervous pet, or simply making an animal's day a little better, I bring the same level of dedication and enthusiasm to every patient. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, valued, and well cared for—and every pet parent deserves to know that their beloved companion is in capable, compassionate hands. Your furry family members will receive the highest level of care, attention, and compassion I can provide—and we'll have some fun along the way. I am comfortable and experienced in caring for patients across a wide range of ages, conditions, and levels of acuity. My clinical experience includes the safe administration and management of oral, injectable, and topical medications, as well as monitoring patients receiving ongoing or complex treatment plans. I am comfortable working with advanced and late-stage disease, chronic and complex medical conditions, hospice and end-of-life care, geriatric patients, pediatrics, neonates, and emergency cases. My background in surgery, emergency medicine, and ICU/critical care has strengthened my ability to remain calm and attentive in high-pressure situations while recognizing subtle changes in a patient's condition and responding appropriately. I understand that each patient requires an individualized approach, and I am committed to providing compassionate, thorough, and attentive care whether a patient is recovering from surgery, managing a chronic illness, beginning life as a neonate, facing an emergency, or approaching the end of life. I am equally comfortable providing hands-on nursing care, assisting with treatment plans, communicating observations to the veterinary team, educating and supporting pet parents, and advocating for the patient's comfort and overall quality of life. Pet care has been a huge part of my daily and weekly routine for more than 10 years. Whether I’m working in veterinary medicine or caring for pets in someone’s home, I’m accustomed to making animal care a priority and building it naturally into my everyday routine. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality, habits, routines, and individual needs. For me, providing consistent, attentive care isn’t simply a job—it’s something I’ve built my life around and truly love doing. I approach every pet as an individual and tailor my care to their specific personality, routine, medical needs, and comfort level. Whether I am caring for a pet in my own home or in a client's home, my priority is always to provide a **safe, calm, consistent, and loving environment** that feels as close to their normal routine as possible. I am comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of needs, including puppies and kittens, seniors, anxious or fearful pets, medically complex patients, and animals requiring medications or additional monitoring. I can administer **oral, injectable, and topical medications**, follow detailed feeding and treatment instructions, monitor changes in behavior or condition, and recognize when something may warrant veterinary attention. My background in emergency, critical care, ICU, and surgery has made me particularly attentive to subtle changes that may indicate a problem. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect that I am also caring for someone's home and follow their instructions closely. I maintain established feeding, medication, exercise, potty, sleep, and enrichment routines whenever possible. I provide regular updates and photos so owners know how their pets are doing and can feel connected while they are away. When caring for pets in my own home, I focus on creating a secure and comfortable environment while considering each animal's temperament, energy level, social preferences, and individual needs. I believe pets shouldn't simply be "watched" while their owners are away—they should receive attention, companionship, enrichment, affection, and quality care. Ultimately, my goal is simple: I want your pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, and I want you to have complete peace of mind knowing they are in capable and compassionate hands.

About: It brings me great joy to care for animals. I love rescues, seniors, energetic animals, loafers and grumpy pets. I refer to all dogs as puppies. I see the puppy in them always, even the grumpy ones. With a scared or unsure dog, I don’t try to make friendship happen. I’m happy to simply be with them, provide comfort and let them decide when we’re buddies. I worked for several years at a local veterinary practice and about two years in an emergency veterinary hospital, working with a wide variety of dogs, cats and birds. I’ve also had dogs and cats throughout my life, including adult rescues. I also have farm-sitting experience caring for chickens, ducks, geese, quail, rabbits, turtles, pigs, sheep, goats and turkeys. I’ve spent time around cattle, zebras, donkeys and horses as well and am always open to learning and expanding my experience. My schedule is currently very flexible, with plenty of room in my day for the dogs in my care. Our days naturally include outside time, walks, play, meals, companionship and plenty of time to relax. I’m happy to adjust that rhythm around what your dog is accustomed to at home. We have a spacious fenced-in backyard and one friendly, active senior pup who enjoys having company. I’ll learn your dog’s normal routine, what they enjoy, what makes them nervous and any little quirks that help them feel comfortable. I’m happy to follow their normal feeding, sleeping and crate routine if they have one. Ours is a genuinely animal-friendly home where furry friends are welcome to get comfortable, including on the furniture and bed.

About: My family has owned many dogs in my lifetime, some had to be put down, and some still alive today.

So, I am open to dog walking on either Saturdays, Sundays or Mondays I particularly would like to walk dogs, so if they have a leash and they're well behaved, we're already on the right track for a nice refreshing walk :)
About: My husband and I have loved getting to dog sit for friends and family. When we heard about rover we got so excited! My husband and I are both runners and are happy to take the dogs we watch on runs/ walks and hikes. We also have enjoyed our new home which came with a fenced in yard. Giving the dogs freedom to run and play is so fun to watch! Every dog we watch feels right at home and we love to cuddle with each and every one.

There is an extra room we use for dogs to be able to take a break if need be.
About: I’ve had a variety of pets my whole life; dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, lizards, turtles, rats, ferrets, and fish! I’m very comfortable being around animals. I am currently a nurse but enjoy being around these furry creatures so much that I wanted to do this on the side! I promise you your pet is in good hands with me. This will be more a reward for me than a job ❤️ Weekdays after 3 I’m typically always available. Other times throughout the day and weekends will vary, so please just ask! I will do what I can :) I can work with you and your pets needs. Whether they use an automatic feeder or need manually fed, I can provide what is needed.
About: I am and have been vegan since I was a child. I’ve always had a deep love for and towards animals ever since I can remember. I like to be in animals energy and presence. Even when giving “care” it’s enjoyable and pleasing for me to offer that for your pets. I bring a calm and peaceful vibe to any situation. I want to be a safe and comfortable space for your animals. ~ If you book the house sitting option, I am only available to sit throughout the day. No sleepovers. I currently am a part time student studying vet tech with a fine arts minor! I have a great amount of free time and flexible schedule to accommodate “different” jobs and care. I live in an apartment with 3 cats. I don’t have any closed off areas at the moment and my cats free roam around the house.
“Marie & Jorge love my Rockie like their own. It gives me a lot of ease when traveling and / or away from him all day. I love getting pictures of him during his walks and when he is at day care making friends. I highly recommend them. 😊”
About: I’ve been a dog lover since about the age of 10 when we got my family dog, Shadow, a cockapoo. As a kid and while growing up, I even trained Shadow to compete in agility competitions and took him to training weekly while also practicing with him in the backyard! When I moved out, I got my own fur baby- a golden doodle named Bubity! Obsessed doesn’t even begin to describe how much I love my dog as I have a water bottle, pair of slippers, shorts and sweatshirt with him on it! I promise to treat your dog as if they’re are my own! I’m currently working part time as a nurse while also attending classes virtually for my masters. My schedule changes weekly but I usually know it about a month in advance! I am pretty flexible on my days off and and willing to work with you in order to help take care of your fur baby! I have a fully fenced in yard and my 1 golden doodle at home. I am more than happy to host your dog for play dates in our yard. I know how hard it is to get a routine set with your dog whether it be something as simple as turning the TV on before leaving the house, walking a specific route to get them to go potty or giving them a special treat when they’re going to be left alone. Whatever your routine is, let me know and I will follow it to its entirety!

“Jessica deserves 10/10 stars. She was amazing with Bailey. She was able to make our wedding special by bringing Bailey to our wedding ceremony. We definitely plan on using Jessica again for our boarding services in the future.”
“My best friend Bernie… And energetic and very social beagle… spent a lovely six days with Zachary and his dogs. He was sad to go home, which made ME feel kind of bad but at least I know he had a good time! Zachary was an excellent communicator, and offered photos of Bernie during his stay. Large fenced yard.”
“Kate was an amazing sitter! She made the entire process seamless, providing regular updates and adorable pictures of our dog. I highly recommend her and would absolutely book with her again!”
“I had a great experience boarding my dog (Bowser). Kristen was friendly, caring, and professional, and it was clear that she genuinely loves animals. I felt comfortable knowing Bowser was in good hands while I was away. Bowser was well cared for, happy, and healthy when I picked him up. Her home was clean and well maintained. Kristen sent me daily updates and pics. I can tell she took the time to make sure Bowser was comfortable and received the attention he needed. I truly appreciate the peace of mind Kristen gave me while I was away. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, caring, reliable and affordable place to board their furry family member. We will definitely be back! 🐾❤️”
“My Opal had a relaxing stay with Wyatt. She got to socialize with other dogs & there were no worries about her safety & care. Progress photos thru the week were comforting to receive. Wyatt gets my highest recommendation.”
About: I’ve had a passion for caring for animals since I was a child. I have 25+ years experience ranging from dog walking to in-home boarding. I have two dogs of my own. I am also well-experienced with senior dogs and bring a very calm demeanor. I am currently taking a break from corporate life and have flexible availability! I am typically available any time M-F, though occasionally I travel on weekends. I have a fully fenced in yard with two dogs at home. My dogs are social and love meeting new friends! I know that it can be unsettling for a dog to stay in someone else’s home, but we’re pros at welcoming others into our pack!
“Megan was a God-send for me. I needed a sitter to watch Gracie while my husband and I were on our honeymoon. 3 weeks before the wedding I had some car issues that resulted in added stress to me. Megan worked with me on getting things booked, and knowing that having Gracie taken care of w was so relieving during that time. Her kids were amazing with Gracie and we loved getting daily updates on our sweet girl. We will definitely use Megan and her boys for Gracie in the future. Thank you sooo much for loving our girl.”
“Asked Natasha to rescue my Great Dane (GD) from a negligent Rover provider who I had left my pet with for 6 hrs and had been locked into a filthy bathroom. Natasha then had to relieve my GD from high anxiety and aloneness. On top of that the filty previous orovider didnt maintain a clean house and left sugar, drugs, and other health hazards out in open in GD got sick and serious care of Diarrhea. Well Natasha took care of her and her belongings and her family kept her within their inner circle helping GD find courage to enjoy her environment and new friends. 2 days later I picked up a HEALTHY AGILE ..... FULLY energized and happy pup with no symptoms at all. My advice is Dont pass on Natasha, her family, her pets, and her boarding arrangements. She is a professional dog lover among the few Rover Royalty.”
“We boarded our pup with Marie who takes the absolute BEST care of the dogs she watches. We call her our dog’s “second mom”. She sent so many awesome pics and updates through the weekend we were away. Our boy usually has separation anxiety, but he trusts Marie and did very well boarding over the weekend with her. He could not have been in better hands!”
“Jason was patient and thoughtful with our elderly dog. He made the accommodations we needed to meet his special needs. I was glad he was there for our dog while we were out of town!”

If I am at your home, I will follow any directions you have to make sure that your pets get the same care that you would give them!
“Savannah was awesome! She kept me up to date with both pictures and videos. My husband and I both commented on how nice it was to take Sylvie to Savannah's home, compared to a boarding kennel. She got a lot more love, attention and care and came home smelling great too!”
“This was my first time using Rover and was a little apprehensive having Stella stay overnight with a stranger. When I met Chris ahead of time, I immediately felt this was a great fit for my mini poodle mix. I would definitely send Stella for vacation at her house while I am on one and allow her to come to my house to walk Stella in the future.”
“Sarah was very thorough with details and understanding of our our elderly dog's needs. She was flexible and communicated well. Thanks for loving on our sweetie!”
