“Keylor and Grace were very accommodating when I was running late and when I picked Molly up earlier than expected. They were gracious and kind and took very good care of our Frenchie. She had such a good time with the bigger dogs; she was sad at home without them.”
“Katelyn and Nicholas were both welcoming and a great host for our 11 month old golden retriever. We were provided frequent updates/pictures which was comforting because this was our first trip without our dog. We will return if we ever need their services again!”
“Tina is awesome. She loves our little girl and makes her daycare, as well as her overnight stays enjoyable. Roo sprints to her door when we arrive. She’s very accommodating and flexible with our schedules. I love that I can get a response from her quickly. She’s a great Rover sitter and I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a genuine lover of dogs.”
“It's so awesome to find someone like Lauranne to take care of our pup while on vacation. We never worried about him. We knew he was in capable hands. Our boy, Mr. Bobby loved hanging with her and all the attention she gave him. She sent us daily notes and pictures. We will definitely book with her again.”
“Samantha was excellent! We had a meet and greet ahead of my dog Bleu’s stay, and Samantha was incredibly kind, responsive, patient, and flexible ahead of, during, and after Bleu’s stay. I would highly recommend her for your pet(s)!”
“Fantastic!! This was our first experience with using Rover. We could not be happier with the wonderful family that took care of my Enzo while we went away for several days. Hannah and her family took Enzo in as a family member. She kept me informed and sent pictures and videos of him living a good life with her family. Hannah was fabulous!”
“Fantastic care provided for our shitzu with updates and pictures. We were confident our little guy was in great hands and wouldn’t hesitate to book again.”
“Leslie was great with my dog during our 5 day vacation. My dog was not happy about being separated from his people and his home. He whined, paced and scratched at the doors the first night and Leslie even slept on the couch with him to help put him at ease. She let him acclimate at his own pace and was very patient. He did eventually settle in and start enjoying his time with her family. It was nice to know that he was in a safe and loving space while we were away and for that I am grateful. I would definitely recommend Leslie when it comes to caring for your furry family members.”
“Nicholas and Emily are great pet sitters! They are timely communicators, thorough and prompt! I greatly appreciate that they have a dog-loving family as I can see my dog Luna happily engages with them and their kids!”
“Rumi took great care of my Bernese mountain dog Flynn! He was in literal paradise, she sent updates with photos, she was very easy to get ahold of and communicate with, and made his entire stay so wonderful! We will for sure be using her services again!!”
“Erika was amazing, very caring with my Malula, was accommodating and always gives you great daily reports with pictures and activities, my dog was super happy and so I was, as I have never left her with someone I didn't know before, and must say it was a great experience, I highly recommend her, it's a super fabulous pet sitter and host, she make space for my dog only in her house, and give her many walks and play time! Even have her a little toy. Honestly thank you Erika!! You were amazing and my dog was so happy!! I will def choose her again w my baby!!”

“This was the first time using Caitlin for boarding our dogs. When the dogs came home, they seemed to be very well taken care of. She sent pictures of the dogs, but could have sent more. She was very helpful when we dropped them off and when we picked them up. During the meet and greet, she seemed to have the experience to take care of dogs. We have 2 Bullmastiffs and she was not intimidated by them. One of the dogs has one eye and is deaf. She took very good care of them both. Thank you, Caitlin.”
“Monica is just so great with Shiloh and I can tell that Soon is very well taken care of. This was the first time she had an extended stay and every day I received a morning update on how Shiloh was with a cute photo. Shiloh is so excited for her next visit!”
“Nicole was kind, accommodating , flexible, and our dog Peach really did well with her! We received many updates with photos which was so much fun and appreciated! We didn’t even have to ask for those updates either 😊”

“Ashley is incredible! My fur babies were in such good hands while I was away. It put my mind at ease seeing photos of them playing and knowing how happy and well provided for they were the whole time. She is truly an animal whisperer and was getting love and pets in even with my difficult shy girl. She went above and beyond on every aspect of caring for them including my home and garden. I am so incredibly grateful to her and highly recommend her services. This is the best pet sitter I have ever had. She is loving, on top of everything, and so gifted. When I needed to make modifications to the dates of my trip and services, she helped me out even when I was off-grid. She is simply the best!!”
About: We’ve always been big dog people. Growing up around dogs taught us just how much love, attention, and care they truly need and we genuinely believe pups shouldn’t be left alone for long stretches. That’s why we’re passionate about helping others give their dogs the fun, companionship, and consistent care they deserve when life gets busy. We both adore dogs (they honestly make us so happy and bring us a ton of joy), and we’d be excited to play, cuddle, and keep your pup feeling safe and loved. Over the years, friends and family have trusted us again and again to care for their dogs, whether they’re out of town or just need a helping hand. We also enjoy training, and we’re always patiently working on new tricks and good habits with our golden retriever, Daisy! We have amazing work flexibility. We can work around people's schedules. It would just be a matter of coordinating between me and the owner of the pup. In our home, your dog will have a safe, closed fenced backyard to run and play, plenty of toys, and the company of our friendly golden retriever, Daisy. We keep preventive dog meds on hand for things like allergies, and your pup will always have access to fresh water, food, and a variety of treats.
“I always ask for Caitlin! She is the most dependable and kind pet sitter I could imagine. She’s very good at loving on the animals and giving them everything they need to stay happy and healthy. You can’t go wrong with her.”
About: I have taken care of many different breeds of dogs since I was young. My family relied on me to play, feed and bathe them. I’m currently working part time. I have plenty of time to play and give your pets love and attention! I can’t wait to meet them. I promise to follow all of the rules that are set for me so I can ensure the best care and safety for your pets.
About: I have always lived with dogs and absolutely love caring for furry friends! I've dog sat many different dogs and am very quick to make them the highlight of my attention when I'm with them! I am a very active person--love to take dogs for walks, hikes, and trips to dog parks if that's what they love. My space is super dog friendly, clean, and open for a great stay. I love to get to know dogs and their personalities. I've cared for all sized dogs and of many different breeds and have never met a dog that I didn't like. My dogs are super dog friendly. Millie can be shy at first and Zoe is great at adjusting her activity to what other dogs want! I am currently working part time and in an online masters program, so I have a lot of time to devote to pups and can provide a lot of interaction with them. I pay a lot of attention to dogs, especially when they are in a new place. I fostered for about 3 years before adopting our current dogs. I’ve had a lot of experience caring for dogs in different scenarios.
About: Taking care of animals is just something I love to do, your animals will be in good hands with me. Taken out, fed and given water anytime they need it. I would love to know some things your animals like so I can make sure they don’t feel lonely while you are gone. The last thing I want is your animal to feel lonely or abandoned while you are out. I can adjust my prices to whatever you need. Need to pay less that’s alright I can work with you on that. Taking care of animals is just something I love. Any animal at all, cats,birds,dogs, bunnies or guinea pigs. Anything at all I would love to take care of them ! Im currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to come play with your pups. Im so excited to meet your pups :) I will be letting them out, making sure they get there food and water at the appropriate time & lots and lots of playtime. If you have anything special you want me to do just let me know !
About: I’ve had countless dogs & cats my whole life and have done plenty of walking and sitting for other people’s pets so I have plenty of experience! Pet care is something that I can fit into my schedule especially a few days a week! I would prefer to know in advance, the more advance the better! I can take the dogs on a week, feed them, play outside with them and give them some love and attention whenever I see them
About: I have had three dogs, myself and personally trained two of them! Our young growing family will give your pup plenty of attention and love! Your pup must be good with kids and animals as we have two young boys who absolutely love animals and a miniature Australian Shepherd, who will play well with any dog! There are also two barn cats on the property who keep to themselves for the most part. I will send update pictures daily, so you can be assured that your pup is doing great. We can’t wait to host your furry friend! I am a stay at home mom so I can be extremely flexible with schedule and be available for your pet most of the time and attend to the needs of your specific pet. I will be sure to feed your pet as often as they are used to at home and with the food you provide. I spend lots of time outside with the kids so you can also be assured that your pet will be given plenty of outside time! I am happy to leave pets inside if they prefer that as well. With our Australian Shepherd exercise will also not be a concern as he is very playful but he also will leave animals alone if they don’t want to play!
About: I have cared for my neighbors’ cats since I was a kid, along with my family’s own cats. I LOVE cats & adopted my own in college. I am patient with them, loving, reliable & respect specific cats’ needs. I just want to make them feel comfortable and loved!
About: I been around animals of all kinds my entire life. I've previously worked in a vet clinic and am currently working in the equine industry. I've handled all shapes and sizes of animals and am comfortable in most tasks. Boarding, walking, minor grooming needs like bathing and trims, I'm up for the task! I'm currently working a full time job but am looking to fill my evenings and days off during the week. I have an unorthodox "weekend" on Tuesdays and Wednesdays that I would love to fill! I have two friendly dogs of my own in a quiet neighborhood outside of town. A decent sized yard with plenty of space to run and an ample amount of good walking spots!
About: I've taken care of various pets since I was 10, and I'm currently 28. I've done a great deal of pet sitting and house sitting over the years. Most of my experience is with dogs, cats, rabbits, and snakes but I am ready and willing to learn more about and care for other animals as well. I love (and have handled) rats and ferrets and some lizards although I have never owned any of those myself. I have been around pet birds but have not cared for any yet. I currently work full time so please consult me to see whether or not our schedules mesh! The times vary and I am flexible. I am passionate about animals and would love to fit you into my free time if I can. I cannot offer pet boarding at my own home at this time due to the disposition of my family pets. I will treat your pet and/or home with the utmost care and respect.

About: I've taken care of several dogs throughout my life cleaning family pet dogs we've had neighbors dogs dogs in the neighborhood. Throughout my childhood we have had biggest dogs medium dogs small dogs. I can discuss scheduling with individual fur baby parents! Hopefully my availability fits the needs of your fur babies and your schedules. I look forward to talking to you and working with your fur babies! I have a huge side yard. And a fenced in backyard. I can also go to your home to watch for babies if that's necessary.
About: I'm a stay at home mom with a very flexible schedule and a love for small dogs! I've had Chihuahuas since I was 12. I currently have one who is well socialized and gets along great with other animals. A day in our home is filled with cuddles, exercise, and playtime. I make sure to provide lots of photos and videos of your pet during their time here because I know pets are part of the family and how hard it can be to be away from them. The dogs in my care will have full access to my home. We will provide multiple daily walks and follow whatever schedule you provide to keep them feeling comfortable and at home here.
About: As a dog mom for many years, I know that having a dog sitter you trust is super important. Being away from home can be nerve-wracking for the furrbaby and their parent. I have 7 wonderful years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes (some with past trauma and anxiety). You can trust that your dog will get the love, care, and attention they need! I typically wake up at around 7:30 am take your pupper out to use the fire hydrant, then provide fresh food and water during breakfast time. After working from 9am-3pm I will walk them around Downtown Mount Vernon. After water and treats, I'll usually play fetch, tug-o-war, or run around with them if they're in the mood for playtime. After more relaxation, while I run errands (house chores, etc.), I take your dog out to relieve themselves before the evening routine (playing, working from home, preparing dinner). I take them outside one more time before bed, and that completes a full day in the Rowe House. I care for your pet according to your preferences. Here at the Rowe House, we typically allow pets to nap on the couch and hang out with us while we work at home. I do have a Corgi (Monty) who loves other dogs and have a pretty careful routine with him, so I highly respect any owner that has very strict or more laid-back preferences for their pups. When bathing or clipping your dog's nails, I use positive reinforcement and desensitization techniques. These include distracting them with treats, encouraging/praising them with treats, and peanut butter. I do require the dog to have all vaccines up to date for bathing and nail clipping. Whether or not I can provide these services will also depend on your dog's comfort and anxiety level.
About: I grew up with a black lab, Macey and a Chihuahua mix, Tootsie and took care of them from when I was young until around the age of 16 when they passed away. I also regularly dog sat 5 dogs at once- all with specific needs, diets and medications before the family moved away. I am comfortable with high energy dogs, I will happily administer medication, and we have 2 acres of fenced in land for your dog to run and play! I am a flight attendant so my schedule varies- usually I work 3-4 days a month and they are never the same. Request and I’ll accept if I’m not flying that day, but other than occasional work I’m pretty much always home! I would love to have a dog but because I’m a flight attendant I know I couldn’t give it the consistency and love it would need- however, on days I am home I would LOVE to have a furry friend to play with. We would be happy to host your dog(s) and let them run around our fenced in back yard, explore the barn, and roam the house. We only accept dogs that are good with children and that are potty trained. We have a large kennel if your dog is crate trained and you would like us to use it, but as long as it’s good with kids it’s free to explore. We can administer medication, give treats, and share lots of love and we hope you’ll trust us with your beloved pups ❤️ P.S. my favorite breeds are corgis, labs and golden doodles :) but I’m not picky, all dogs will receive equal love 😉

“Rumi was so nice and responsive to all our messages. She was able to watch our dog on short notice. She sent updates during the stay where Evie seemed to be enjoying herself. Thanks so much!”
“Samantha was amazing! She took our pup in for doggy daycare last minute, was so kind and caring, and took fantastic care of our pup! She sent me updates throughout the day with pictures and was so flexible and accommodating to meet our pup’s needs and provide him with the best experience. He loved running and playing with her dogs and came home so happy! Would 100% recommend her and will definitely be using her daycare services again!”
“Tina was as good for me as she was for Tommy! I had a pretty busy, stressful day ahead of me and she took a lot of my problems away by giving me a safe place to leave Tommy where he could play and be kept busy while I got my things taken care of pretty efficiently. Her compassion and kindness will not be forgotten.”
About: I have experience with both puppies and seniors. Includes potty training obedience training, dominance training. I’ve worked at a humane society and owned rescue dogs. My approach is to find each individual dog’s motivation to help them grow, learn, and mature. I currently have 2 dogs of my own and enjoy walking and taking them on adventures. I do community work within my school district and would love the added opportunities to fit my love for dogs in my routine more. With dogs non-verbal queues are very important in understanding behavior, needs, and temperament. I pay attention give them good food exercise is a must! When dealing with new dogs, speaking with the owner and what they want is top priority. Setting goals for our poochie pals allows a measurement for tracking success.
About: I have experienced every step of Animal Care; from my first childhood dog birthing a litter of pups, to end-of-life care more recently with my family dog. Let me know what makes your critter happy, and know that your pooch is in loving, warm hands. I have cared for dogs 3/4s of my 35 years on this planet and even moved a dog back acquired internationally off of the streets of Beirut, Lebanon with a previous girlfriend and trained obedience into the street dog, and to be accustomed to a more sedentary American-Style home living. I am currently shifting from a sales career in finance to a tech career, and am spending some quality time with my parents in Appley Valley for a few months outside of Mt. Vernon before I rewire my focus back to an intensive career-oriented work environment. I am holding off on a full-time job and would love to take care of your pet and give them all of my attention and focus whenever you need me, even if it's an emergency. I have no other work engagements currently as I'm taking two months to catch up with my folks while I transition to a new firm. I have a finished basement apartment underneath a 2600 sq ft. ranch, where your animal children are welcome to relax on my furniture and enjoy an acre of wooded land and a 10-minute drive to Bark Park outside of Appley Valley Lake Community. I can travel and my car is dog-friendly if your creature likes to socialize or play at any of the local parks or dog parks. If your pooch needs a Paw-Wash or "the Works" I have a walk-in shower where we can have your puppy smelling "so fresh and so clean" upon returning the critter to your domicile.
“Wonderful first experience! I greatly appreciated the peace of mind I had leaving our puppy with Caitlin. I received pictures while we were gone, and Luna seemed so happy. I would definitely recommend!”
About: Growing up I have always cared for our family pets. Today I have 3 rescue dogs of my own. My pups are apart of my family. I volunteer to transport dogs to a safe homes. Animals of any type depend on their humans to care for them. When their humans can’t be there for some reason they still need that special care and attention. I have always struggled when leaving my dogs to go away. What do I do with them? Who will care for them like I do? I would like to help people to be at ease knowing your pet will be well taken care of in my hands because I understand what it is like to have that worry. I will care for your pet as though they are mine.
“Bill and Mary are a great team that took care of our pup and showed him lots of love. We appreciated a "meet and greet" with their dogs and ours to ensure they got along okay. Our pup was able to play very well with their three dogs. From the way he came home tired, he had an awesome time playing with Bill, Mary and the other dogs.”
About: I have had such a huge passion for animals since I was young and I have rescued many strays over the years. Now, I live on a farm with 2 dogs and 2 (rescued) cats. One dog is a senior so I have experience with caring for older animals and handling with sweet care. My husky also loves playing which would be great socialization for your pets too. I don't crate my animals so just know they have the space to hang out and you'll get lots of pictures! I work from home full-time as a mental health therapist so I have plenty of time to take them potty, out for a walk, let them play in the yard, and get some energy out. I have a friendly Husky who would love to play, lots of space to roam, and an unnatural amount of toys! I don't crate my animals but if your dog need his own space, I have a pet room they can relax in or hang out with me in my home office. Safety is extremely important to me, so your dog will be leashed when out in the yard or on walks, and I'll protect them like I do my own.
“Cassie was amazing!! This was Tilly's first pet sitter experience and Cassie made everything great!! Highly recommend Cassie!! She will be my go to if I ever need a pet sitter again!! 10 STARS!!!!”

Most of my experience is with dogs, cats, rabbits, and snakes but I am ready and willing to learn more about and care for other animals as well. I love (and have handled) rats and ferrets and some lizards although I have never owned any of those myself. I have been around pet birds but have not cared for any yet. I currently work full time so please consult me to see whether or not our schedules mesh! The times vary and I am flexible. I am passionate about animals and would love to fit you into my free time if I can. I cannot offer pet boarding at my own home at this time due to the disposition of my family pets. I will treat your pet and/or home with the utmost care and respect.
About: I have experienced every step of Animal Care; from my first childhood dog birthing a litter of pups, to end-of-life care more recently with my family dog. Let me know what makes your critter happy, and know that your pooch is in loving, warm hands. I have cared for dogs 3/4s of my 35 years on this planet and even moved a dog back acquired internationally off of the streets of Beirut, Lebanon with a previous girlfriend and trained obedience into the street dog, and to be accustomed to a more sedentary American-Style home living. I am currently shifting from a sales career in finance to a tech career, and am spending some quality time with my parents in Appley Valley for a few months outside of Mt. Vernon before I rewire my focus back to an intensive career-oriented work environment. I am holding off on a full-time job and would love to take care of your pet and give them all of my attention and focus whenever you need me, even if it's an emergency. I have no other work engagements currently as I'm taking two months to catch up with my folks while I transition to a new firm. I have a finished basement apartment underneath a 2600 sq ft. ranch, where your animal children are welcome to relax on my furniture and enjoy an acre of wooded land and a 10-minute drive to Bark Park outside of Appley Valley Lake Community. I can travel and my car is dog-friendly if your creature likes to socialize or play at any of the local parks or dog parks. If your pooch needs a Paw-Wash or "the Works" I have a walk-in shower where we can have your puppy smelling "so fresh and so clean" upon returning the critter to your domicile.
“We are so happy to have found Samantha on Rover. She is super nice, responds quickly to inquiries, arrives right on schedule and, most importantly, is great with our beagle. Five stars!”
“Kayla is great. She’s very responsive and gives lots of feedback after each visit. I have a newly adopted dog that has some behavior issues and I wanted someone with some experience and Kayla has been able to handle anything that comes up. The dogs know when she is supposed to come and are so excited when she shows up!”
About: My name is Jordan Harris and I am an animal lover hoping to be able to make a difference in you and your pets life! I have worked with animals in my daily career for the last 10 years, beginning as a kennel technician in a large boarding facility, working in doggy daycare, grooming, and basic obedience dog training. I was promoted to General Manager in 2017 and in 2021 I left my job at the boarding facility to pursue a career in Veterinary Medicine. I currently am a Clinic Office Manager at a veterinary clinic where we care for cats, dogs, and exotic pets. After working in boarding for so many years, I understand that not all pets do well in a boarding facility. I am hoping to offer families and their pets the peace of mind and comfort for your pet however I can, in your home. I currently work full time, 4 days a week. I am free on the weekends and would be more than happy to discuss my weekly availability. 🙂 I do have a 5 year old daughter that may come along from time to time; however only if necessary. If your pet doesn’t do well with children please let me know ahead of time so I can plan accordingly. I am comfortable dispensing medication/strict diets, and handling dogs with special needs such as behavioral, medical, etc. Tell me how your pet prefers their attention and exercise and we will do it their way!
About: I have taken care of all sorts of animals my whole life. I know how to deal with their temperaments and stress. I’ve never lived without having dogs. I am always the type of person to take a dog in that I find from the street. I have dealt with strays so I don’t just have experience with well trained dogs. I have also watched over peoples dogs for a while and I started walking dogs since I was 9. My grandma had a community that she lived at and I loved dogs so much that I would walk them for free. My passion for dogs will never go away. I currently work front desk at a hotel. I work Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. I am able to walk dogs those days but only before 1 pm. Thursdays and Fridays I am totally free. And depending on the location, I can also do Saturdays. I currently have 2 dogs and they get walked once a day during the night. I also feed them a little differently than usual. I include green beens into their food as well as other healthy powdered ingredient so they are getting the right nutrition. I am fine with watching dogs at the clients home or mine. The only problem with my home is that I already have 2 dogs of my own. So the dog would have to get along with other medium sized mutts. When I have taken care of pets in another persons home, I like having a specific list so I know what’s best for the dog. I’m able to abide by any rules and I don’t mind if the dog needs extra care. I am up for it.
About: I've had pets since I was 10. I have taken care of both cats and dogs. Friendly, conscientious, and thorough. Can't wait to walk new dogs/friends. I'm currently off of work for the summer as I teach full time during the school year. I am working on taking time for myself, exercising, and walking dogs. I take care of my pets by either crating them or leaving them in a bedroom when I am out and about. I have a crate for them to use.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I have also cared for dogs and cats of my own for as long as I can remember. I am also very comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes and ages. I am currently working part-time, being an athlete and a student. I will make as much time as possible for your pup, as well as being as flexible as possible. I will make sure that your dog or cat is well taken care of. That they are safe and that under my watch, I will give them the utmost quality of care.

“Keylor and Grace were very accommodating when I was running late and when I picked Molly up earlier than expected. They were gracious and kind and took very good care of our Frenchie. She had such a good time with the bigger dogs; she was sad at home without them.”
“Katelyn and Nicholas were both welcoming and a great host for our 11 month old golden retriever. We were provided frequent updates/pictures which was comforting because this was our first trip without our dog. We will return if we ever need their services again!”
“Samantha was excellent! We had a meet and greet ahead of my dog Bleu’s stay, and Samantha was incredibly kind, responsive, patient, and flexible ahead of, during, and after Bleu’s stay. I would highly recommend her for your pet(s)!”
“Fantastic!! This was our first experience with using Rover. We could not be happier with the wonderful family that took care of my Enzo while we went away for several days. Hannah and her family took Enzo in as a family member. She kept me informed and sent pictures and videos of him living a good life with her family. Hannah was fabulous!”
“Leslie was great with my dog during our 5 day vacation. My dog was not happy about being separated from his people and his home. He whined, paced and scratched at the doors the first night and Leslie even slept on the couch with him to help put him at ease. She let him acclimate at his own pace and was very patient. He did eventually settle in and start enjoying his time with her family. It was nice to know that he was in a safe and loving space while we were away and for that I am grateful. I would definitely recommend Leslie when it comes to caring for your furry family members.”

I can give frequent bathroom breaks and follow whatever schedule your dog is used too I have a very large yard to run and play in and have well maintained grass walking trails on my property.

“This was the first time using Caitlin for boarding our dogs. When the dogs came home, they seemed to be very well taken care of. She sent pictures of the dogs, but could have sent more. She was very helpful when we dropped them off and when we picked them up. During the meet and greet, she seemed to have the experience to take care of dogs. We have 2 Bullmastiffs and she was not intimidated by them. One of the dogs has one eye and is deaf. She took very good care of them both. Thank you, Caitlin.”
“Monica is just so great with Shiloh and I can tell that Soon is very well taken care of. This was the first time she had an extended stay and every day I received a morning update on how Shiloh was with a cute photo. Shiloh is so excited for her next visit!”
“Nicole was kind, accommodating , flexible, and our dog Peach really did well with her! We received many updates with photos which was so much fun and appreciated! We didn’t even have to ask for those updates either 😊”
“We are so happy to have found Jamie and her family. Our Willow gets to take naps, run in her yard and get lots of love from her family and dog Bailey. Multiple updates a day and always with videos or pictures. Thank you Jamie!!”
“Amazing once again! Their entire family shows so much love to Frankie. She always comes home better behaved and happy as can be! Loni goes above and beyond and I know Frankie’s in the best hands possible.”
“Kristine was our first ever Rover experience. She and her family were so loving and engaged with our dog. She sent daily updates and pictures and went out of her way to make sure we knew our dog was having a great time while we were away. We intend to reach out to her again in the future and would recommend her to everyone. So much care and kindness!”
“Taylor was absolutely amazing with Osa, I went from feeling scared of leaving Osa to feeling comfortable Osa was taken care of. Her response time was almost instant for the entirety of Osa's stay, and she was so flexible when I needed to add pick up and drop off for unexpected events! Taylor, thank you so much for making this one less thing for me to worry about during my travel!”
