“Niko was absolutely wonderful with our little dog who needs several meds and is blind in one eye. She was great with sending thoughtful updates to put our minds at ease, and was very accommodating on drop off and pick up as we were traveling from out of town. Our dog obviously had a great time with Niko’s family. We would book with her again, no hesitation. She’s the best!”
“The last time we boarded our dog overnight, she had severe separation anxiety and didn’t eat the entire time. I knew as soon as Dakota said that she ate her dinner and slept through the night that we were in great hands. Can’t tell you enough, how relieved I was!”
“Lovely family. Would definitely book again. I was nervous to leave my two fur babies with a sitter because they have only been to a sitter once before, but they helped my fur babies have a smooth, comfortable 2 night stay, while also helping me feel comfortable over the course of the stay. I received lots of pictures, videos and updates. They were also knowledgeable in properly introducing my dogs to their dog and the other dogs that stayed as well, to ensure they would all get along. So my dogs also got to make new friends during their stay. Couldn’t ask for a better experience :)”
“Kaela & Lee took great care of our little old man, Rocko. We received daily updates and pictures of Rocko doing what Rocko does. We will definitely reach out to them again for sitting Rocko and would highly recommend them. DS”
“She is the best sitter ever! She keeps me informed and my little one always looks as if he is getting plenty of attention, love, exercise, and fun! She makes sure he is comfortable. My little Yorkie loves it with her.”
“Chris did an outstanding job taking care of our dog during our family vaca. He was responsive and provided regular updates and kept her busy and safe. I'd definitely recommend him and plan to use him again in the future!”
“Jessica made sure to send me plenty of pictures to make me feel comfortable as it was Isla’s first time staying with her and her dog. Jessica welcomed Isla into her home with warm embrace & gave her space away from her dog at first to ensure that she had time to get comfortable.”
“Always such a great time at Anne’s house! My munchkins aren’t the most friendly/accepting but are always so excited to stay with her. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great/affordable care and for your furry kids to come home worn out.”
“Jasmine was incredibly sweet and attentive during Bella’s boarding. She took such great care of our girl and sent us daily photo updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for loving, reliable care!”
“Was able to board my dog on short notice and had tons of open space and other dogs to keep mine entertained. He even gave my dog a bath just for the heck of it and didn't ask for anything in return, 10/10.”
“They were great! Wren "Tots" got to go with me to a few events so I was able to pick her up and drop her off for her "sleepovers" with Holly and Justin. She really seemed much calmer than when I boarded her at the vet, and being able to be with me during the day (I was traveling from out if town and couldn't keep her at my hotel) kept her more relaxed. Thank you to them for being so flexible with our time! HIGHLY recommend them for any type of pet sitting!”
“Valeria and her family were great! They took care to make sure Merl got his medicine. Their home is spacious with a lovely big yard. I know Merl had a great time and we'll be back in the future!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We could not have asked for a better experience! We needed a dog sitter on very short notice, and Cherry stepped in and completely exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, she and her husband were outside waiting to greet us, welcoming both us and our dogs with genuine warmth and enthusiasm. They immediately put us at ease with their kindness, professionalism, and obvious love for animals. They took the time to ask thoughtful questions about our dogs' personalities, routines, and needs, which showed how much they cared about providing the best possible care. Leaving your beloved pets with people you've just met can be stressful, but they made us feel comfortable and confident right away. Their flexibility, excellent communication, and accommodating nature were greatly appreciated, especially given our last-minute situation. We also loved receiving photos of our pups while they were in their care. Those updates meant a lot and gave us extra peace of mind knowing our dogs were happy, comfortable, and being well cared for. When we picked them up, they provided a detailed report of how everything had gone, which further demonstrated their attentiveness and commitment to excellent care. It's clear that they treat the pets in their care like family. We are incredibly grateful for the love, attention, and affection (and treats) they gave our dogs and would not hesitate to trust them again in the future. If you're looking for caring, reliable, flexible, and genuinely wonderful pet sitters, we wholeheartedly recommend them. Our pups came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. 🐾❤️”
“Lindsey was amazing with Bauer! She sent multiple updates with pics through his stay which made us feel at ease being away from home! Thank YOU again - we will definitely use Lindsey again! 😊”
“Jennifer wasn’t sitting for me really. Instead, she provided an adventure camp for our sweet pup. My new puppy really needed to have some great experiences at the end of a car ride to be more confident. We received photos at the farmer’s market, dog park and lake. She got a vacation! Thanks Jen!”
“Anna took great care of our dog and was super flexible and easy to work with. She kept us updated and sent pictures throughout his stay. So grateful for her! We’ll definitely book with her again in the future! 😊”
“Leeann was great to work with! This was my first time to use rover. She made me feel very comfortable about leaving ace with her. She also sent pictures. That was great to see your pet content. I Will recommend to friends and family! Thanks again!!”

“Jenny was the best. This is the first time I had ever hired a sitter to take care of Tuxedo. Tuxedo just snuggled right up to her. Loved all the photos she sent. I will definitely use her again!”
“This is my third time booking Grace - she’s so attentive and really cares for my kitties! She makes traveling and being away a little less stressful knowing my babies are taken care of! I highly recommend booking her. Thanks Grace!”
“Every time I go on vacation, Nichelle is always my first choice. 100/10 every time. She's a freaking godsend. And she's really cool. If you're reading this, just pick her. It'll be a waste of time to look at anyone else.”
“Ana was amazing with my 2 cats! She helped out so much while we were on vacation, and I didn’t have to worry at all. We had a mishap and needed her to come more than anticipated, and she came through for us! I would 100% recommend her to watch your fur babies! 💕🐈⬛”
“Dakota is phenomenal, he cared for our babies like they were his own, especially our kitten who's 12 weeks. We couldn't be more thankful for him, we will definitely be booking with him again!”
About: Hi I'm Reyna! I know choosing someone to care for your pets and your home is a big decision. My goal is to provide dependable, personalized care that gives you complete peace of mind while you're away. I believe every pet deserves care that's tailored to their unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, extra cuddles, or simply having someone nearby for companionship, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for throughout every visit or stay. One of the things I value most is communication. You'll never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I provide thoughtful updates and plenty of photos throughout every booking so you can relax knowing they're happy, safe, and in good hands. **House Sitting Expectations** My house sitting service is designed to provide your pets with loving, attentive care while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. To continue caring for my regular Rover clients, there may be times during the day when I'm away from the home for a few hours to complete scheduled drop-in visits, walks, attend class, or take care of other commitments. Outside of those times, your pets will receive plenty of attention, exercise, potty breaks, companionship, and personalized care. If your pet requires constant, around the clock supervision or cannot comfortably be left alone for several hours, please let me know before booking so we can discuss whether I'm the right fit. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, puppies, senior pets, and multi-pet households, and I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family! I'm a student with a flexible schedule and keep my Rover calendar updated to reflect my availability. I'm available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits throughout the week. I plan my schedule carefully so I can provide dependable, consistent care for every client. If I ever anticipate a scheduling conflict or change, I'll always communicate it with you as soon as possible. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. Before every booking, I take the time to learn your pet's routine, personality, preferences, and any special instructions so I can provide care that's tailored to their individual needs. Whether it's sticking to a feeding schedule, administering routine medications, following favorite walking routes, or keeping up with bedtime routines, I believe the little details matter. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable and secure as possible while you're away.
“I loved having Anna watch my kittens! She sent updates and really understood my pet anxiety! I have a specific way I give them their supplements and meds in the morning and she followed everything to a tee! I’d recommend her and definitely will rebook!”
About: I grew up around cats my whole life. I’m reliable, active, and love caring for cats through playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. Whether your cat needs companionship, extra care, or just simply to be checked on while you’re away, I’ll treat them like their my own.
“Syvana was great! She came by for daily play visits while we were out of town, and we could tell our cat was well cared for. She cleaned her litterbox also. We’ll rebook with her again and definitely recommend her!”
“Victoria did a great job watching my cat. She sent videos everyday and made sure he got enough attention. If you are going out of town I highly recommend booking Victoria as your sitter.”
About: Hi there! I've grown up with dogs all my life. I currently have my rescue love pitbull Duke, and I've fostered dogs of many kinds through a local animal rescue sanctuary. I am comfortable with all dog breeds and sizes. I am happy to run with dogs or play games in the backyard. Just like humans, I believe it is important for dogs to get fresh air and exercise every day. I am happy to help meet this need for your best friend. My husband and I work full time but have flexible schedules. Our dog is let out every 4-6 hours so you can expect the same for yours. Our backyard is fenced, and our house is set up so that we can separate your dog from ours if they need time to decompress. Dogs are allowed on furniture if they mind their manners. No kids, smoking or toxic plants.
“Skylar was amazing in taking care of my kitty and my snake. Very detailed cards at the end of each visit, with wonderful pictures. I know they got the best care under his watch. Will be booking again for the future!”
“Everet wins my cats hearts as well as mine. She’s always so caring and I absolutely love the way she writes down what our cats did!! I could absolutely make a book with the her cat reports hehehe!! She’s is so gifted!!!”

About: Hello there! I have many years experience pet/house sitting for family and friends and am known for loving your pets as I would my own. When your pet is with us we treat them like family so you can be assured they will get the care and attention every pet deserves.

As a homeowner myself, I am responsible and respectful of your belongings and pets just as i would want for my own home. I will do my absolute best to follow your pets schedule and can assure you they will be well cared like my own beloved floofs.
“I was nervous about leaving our puppy. Amanda was very reassuring and sent me updates throughout the day letting me know everything was fine. You can tell she loves taking care of animals. I can’t wait to have her take care of our puppy again!”
“Dakota was great with our dogs. We were given very short notice by our complex of work being done so the dogs could not be there. We called boarding places but they were all booked due to the weekend. He was great on short notice and was super laid back and messaged with questions. We plan to use him for our vacations if hes free”
About: I’ve been a pet owner for over 17 years to 2 toy dogs. I will take care of your dog(s), the way I can care if mine I am very flexible, but typically dog sit during the day Mondays through Fridays. I can be flexible for the weekend if I am available. I have a roomy house with a large backyard where the dogs can run around and play. I specialize in taking care of toy dogs, which is typically less than 20 lbs.
About: Ever since I was in kindergarten I wanted to take care of animals, I'm currently in college for vet tech. I have always been fascinated by helping out animals❤️ I have worked in vet offices as a kennel tech, and a Vet assistant. I have worked in the pet care field for 5 years, starting right as I got out of high School. I cared for my parents animals, my neighbors animals, and my rabbit, who will be turning 11 next month. I've trained animals from potty training up to obedience(dependant on the owner and how obedient they want their fur baby) I've worked with animals who have been abused, and have gotten them out of their shell. My dog, is 7 almost 8, so a senior, she was severely abused, had 5 owners before us, were her sixth, she was "aggressive" we got to work with her to open up to other dogs, And she's been amazing. I've worked with cats, dogs, birds, rabbits and even goats. I am a part time barista, full time pet parent, of a cat, rabbit and dog. My animals come first so they can be well taken care of❤️ I am also disabled so please keep this in mind 🩵 My husband Austin(who is in the process of being added) is a stay at home pet parent, he travels with me, helping me care for pets. He also travels with me to make sure I am okay during visits, because of my disability. He is very good with animals, and can promise you, your babies are in good hands with him and I 🖤 I live in an apartment that is pet friendly, across the street is a giant park where your fur babies and I can walk around and visit the dog park to exert their energy. I have a spare space for animals that keep to themselves, I offer scratch posts for cats, and a little hut for them to hide. I have plenty of treats, and toys for every fur baby that comes in. For your home, I know it can be scary for animals to see a new person, so usually they'll freak out, I'll typically get to a fur babies level and let them come to me, I never want them to feel threatened by my visitation. If they need time, that is all okay, they can take all the time needed. I will always have some treats with me to greet them(as long as the owner is okay with treats)
“Lillys first day there and she got along so great. Shes a bit shy and careful around a lot of dogs but she was relaxed and happy there. Richard has a great sense of balance with the pack and it allowed her to have a great time around them So happy i found him”

“Kelsey is awesome! She is very flexible and was very patient with us due to some unusual circumstances that came up. After walks with her, my dog was always worn out and happy. Would definitely recommend and reach out again in the future if needed!”
“Nichelle was absolutely phenomenal. My dog immediately took to her, she was very patient. After an hour long walk, he bounded over to her to tell her goodbye - and he doesn’t get THAT excited with many people! I very VERY highly recommend her.”

About: Hello! My boyfriend and I have experience in caring for a variety of breeds including those labeled as “aggressive”. We currently have 5 pets: German Shepherd, Australian Shepherd mix, Husky mix, and 2 cats (see photo). We have experience with highly energetic dogs and taking them on much needed walks, dog parks, and even hiking! We live in a home with a spacious backyard so there is plenty of space for your dogs to play and run around. We also have personal experience in teaching basic commands. For house sitting, please note that only I will be present in your home while my boyfriend stays at home so that we have the opportunity to care for two clients at a time. We LOVE taking pictures and videos so we will keep you updated during the stay. Our pets are very sociable so if your pet gets along with our dogs, they will never get bored during their stay! If you’ve read this far, thank you so much for considering us and we hope to meet you and your pet soon! :) We will treat your pet as if they are a part of our family! Our dogs stay inside and go outside for potty or playtime. For bedtime, they sleep with us in the bedroom and keep the door open in case they prefer to sleep elsewhere. Our space is large enough to feed animals separately in case of food aggression and we consistently play fetch in our backyard or our dogs will wrestle and chase each other. Daycare/Boarding: We have a large fenced in yard with 3 dogs, so your dog will always have company to play with. Our cats stay inside and typically mind their business elsewhere. Housesitting/Drop-Ins: I will only be present in your home unless the client says otherwise. In addition to caring for the pets and keeping their routine as close as how the client would, I can assist with bringing in mail/packages, watering plants/garden, or anything else the client requests.

About: Hi, I’m Jordyn. I am 25 years with an Bachelor of Science degree. I have a passion of caring for animals. I have 1 dog naned Leo, he is an American Staffordshire Pitbull. I’ve had him since 2020 when he was 3 months old. I have been dog sitting for 6 years now. I have experience working in a dog daycare for 3 years. My additional duties working in a dog daycare involved keeping the kennels clean of waste, dog fur, stray food and water, and other material that keep dogs from being comfortable away from their owners. I enjoy being able to play and have fun with dogs. While walking your dog I will make sure he/she stays dehydrated throughout the summer/winter. Feel free to contact me about any questions you have or concerns and times that I am available to care. Thank you! Feeding: Start the day by feeding pets according to their specific dietary needs and specific feeding times through out the day. Exercise: Take dogs for a morning/afternoon walk or engage them in playtime. 1. Feeding: Ensure pets are fed according to their specific dietary needs. Provide fresh water daily. 2. Exercise: Take dogs for regular walks or play with them to keep them active. For cats, engage them with toys or provide space for climbing and exploration. 3. Safe Environment: Remove any hazards from the home, such as toxic plants, chemicals, or small objects that could be swallowed. 4. Attention and Affection: Spend quality time with pets to meet their social needs. This can include petting, playing, or simply sitting together. 5. Follow Client Instructions: Adhere to any specific care instructions provided by the pet owner, including feeding schedules and preferences. 6.

About: I'm thorough, quick to learn, and have a calm presence that pets are very responsive to. My mom is a vet tech so I've had plenty of foster babies both young and old, healthy or not so much, this means I'm not afraid of any extenuating circumstances you may have with your pets. Oral medications, topicals and even injections are no problem. I'm happy to be there for your extra special pet. I am not working full-time right now so I am available all day for you and your pets. I do have a couple of regular walks during the week but not too much. I have pets of my own so I'm capable of bringing just about any supply or tool that might be needed. While I would prefer not to stay in a clients home full-time I would be willing to make arrangements for pets that need it as I have a disabled pet of my own and understand the need for more thorough attention to these animals. In my home, I'm capable of housing a free roaming dog that is friendly with other animals (cats and dogs) or a dog that requires some light crating. I have a full sized dog crate in my home for my dog when he needs it and a couple more in storage as well as an outdoor kennel and two decently-sized fenced yards.
About: I have always had a way with animals. I have been a pet sitter and caregiver for many years now, allowing me to have the experience to start a Rover Account! I have had several pets since the age of 6 and have always gotten along so well with them. I have since then gotten a couple of dogs and a cat who have had the best times of their lives being under my household! I’m currently a college student with breaks in the day and free in the afternoon and night. I’m also free on the Weekends! Your pet is in perfect hands with me. They will have plenty of play time in my care as I love taking them outside! I give them my full attention, care, and love. I will feed them according to the owner and keep their water dish full. They will be allowed to go outside as much as they would like. According to the parent owner, they can also sleep with me or wherever they would like!
About: I have 10 years of watching, bathing, and taking care of dogs. I definitely make sure that I give 125% whenever I take care of pets I can walk pets after I get off work at 6 and anytime during the day on the weekends. I can also watch pets over the weekend at a moments notice. I make sure that the safety of the pet is the priority whenever I watch the pet. I make sure that the animal is comfortable and knows that he/she can trust me.
About: I am great at keeping to consistent schedules, and I am very organized. You will not have to worry about your pet while they are in my care! I enjoy brisk walks that high-energy dogs will love, but I love casual strolls for the smaller pups. I am a big fan of caring for cats as well! Whether I am walking your dog or just dropping in on your cats, I will make sure your furry friend gets plenty of attention and love while you are away. I have a collapsable water bowl that I will take with me on every walk to make sure your pet stays hydrated, and I will bring extra leashes and waste bags. I will play with your pets during drop ins to make sure they get plenty of attention while you are gone.
About: SERVICES BEGIN APRIL 1, 2026 Empty nester, self-employed PR professional, and lifelong dog lover. I share my home in OKC's Heritage Hills with two friendly Shetland Sheepdogs who are gentle and accustomed to other dogs. Because I work from home, I am available most of the day and able to provide plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship. I only accept two guest dogs at a time so every dog receives calm, individualized care in a quiet home environment. My goal is to make your dog feel like part of the household rather than in a kennel. I had to go out of town unexpectedly recently and I had to board my dogs. When I returned, they were distraught and reaked. It was very upsetting and that is when I got the idea of helping people in my neighborhood who need help with their pets. Dogs in my care spend their time indoors with me, with regular outdoor breaks in a secure yard and plenty of affection and attention. I have a small apartment behind my home that was remodeled for my elderly mother. She has passed away and now it's the Doggy Poppins Cottage where pets can be separated from my shetlands if necessary. I understand that leaving a beloved pet can be stressful, so I am happy to provide updates and photos during your dog’s stay. I look forward to welcoming dogs who enjoy a peaceful home environment. Because I am self-employed (public relations/advocacy) and work from home, I am home most of the day and able to provide regular supervision and companionship for the dogs in my care. Guest dogs follow a calm household routine that includes morning outdoor time, time indoors with the family during the day, and additional outdoor breaks throughout the afternoon and evening. Dogs are rarely left alone for extended periods. I also have a safe dog run. I only accept two or three guest dogs at a time, which allows me to provide plenty of attention and maintain a peaceful home environment. Drop-off and pickup times are flexible by arrangement. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Dogs staying in my home are treated as part of the household and spend their time indoors with the family rather than in kennels or crates (unless a crate is part of your dog’s normal routine). I share my home with two gentle Shetland Sheepdogs who are friendly and accustomed to other dogs. Because I only accept two or three guest dogs at a time, I am able to supervise interactions closely and maintain a calm environment. Dogs have access to a secure yard for regular outdoor breaks and exercise, but they spend most of their time relaxing indoors. I take care to follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, routines, and preferences. I understand that leaving a pet can feel stressful, so I am happy to send updates and photos during your dog’s stay to give you peace of mind. I have a tiny apartment behind my home that was remodeled for my late mother. It is now the Doggy Poppins Cottage. Pets can be separated from my Shetlands if necessary.
About: I have been with pets my whole life. From dogs, cats to fish and lizards. I have 6 dogs, in which we have had a few litters. I am experienced with newborn pups to old pups. I would be honored to watch over your pup and or animals. I currently work at an oral surgeon office, as well as going to school full time online. Morning before work I can come for couple hours and evening couple of hours. Do you need a sitter on the weekend? I’m fully available. Our pets are treated like royalty in my house. I would love treat yours as well. I have plenty of experience with animals, and would love to keep your animals as comfortable as possible. As well as the safety and security of your animals.

“The last time we boarded our dog overnight, she had severe separation anxiety and didn’t eat the entire time. I knew as soon as Dakota said that she ate her dinner and slept through the night that we were in great hands. Can’t tell you enough, how relieved I was!”
“She is the best sitter ever! She keeps me informed and my little one always looks as if he is getting plenty of attention, love, exercise, and fun! She makes sure he is comfortable. My little Yorkie loves it with her.”
“Chris did an outstanding job taking care of our dog during our family vaca. He was responsive and provided regular updates and kept her busy and safe. I'd definitely recommend him and plan to use him again in the future!”
“Jasmine was incredibly sweet and attentive during Bella’s boarding. She took such great care of our girl and sent us daily photo updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for loving, reliable care!”
“Was able to board my dog on short notice and had tons of open space and other dogs to keep mine entertained. He even gave my dog a bath just for the heck of it and didn't ask for anything in return, 10/10.”
“They were great! Wren "Tots" got to go with me to a few events so I was able to pick her up and drop her off for her "sleepovers" with Holly and Justin. She really seemed much calmer than when I boarded her at the vet, and being able to be with me during the day (I was traveling from out if town and couldn't keep her at my hotel) kept her more relaxed. Thank you to them for being so flexible with our time! HIGHLY recommend them for any type of pet sitting!”
“Valeria and her family were great! They took care to make sure Merl got his medicine. Their home is spacious with a lovely big yard. I know Merl had a great time and we'll be back in the future!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We could not have asked for a better experience! We needed a dog sitter on very short notice, and Cherry stepped in and completely exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, she and her husband were outside waiting to greet us, welcoming both us and our dogs with genuine warmth and enthusiasm. They immediately put us at ease with their kindness, professionalism, and obvious love for animals. They took the time to ask thoughtful questions about our dogs' personalities, routines, and needs, which showed how much they cared about providing the best possible care. Leaving your beloved pets with people you've just met can be stressful, but they made us feel comfortable and confident right away. Their flexibility, excellent communication, and accommodating nature were greatly appreciated, especially given our last-minute situation. We also loved receiving photos of our pups while they were in their care. Those updates meant a lot and gave us extra peace of mind knowing our dogs were happy, comfortable, and being well cared for. When we picked them up, they provided a detailed report of how everything had gone, which further demonstrated their attentiveness and commitment to excellent care. It's clear that they treat the pets in their care like family. We are incredibly grateful for the love, attention, and affection (and treats) they gave our dogs and would not hesitate to trust them again in the future. If you're looking for caring, reliable, flexible, and genuinely wonderful pet sitters, we wholeheartedly recommend them. Our pups came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. 🐾❤️”
“Lindsey was amazing with Bauer! She sent multiple updates with pics through his stay which made us feel at ease being away from home! Thank YOU again - we will definitely use Lindsey again! 😊”
“Jennifer wasn’t sitting for me really. Instead, she provided an adventure camp for our sweet pup. My new puppy really needed to have some great experiences at the end of a car ride to be more confident. We received photos at the farmer’s market, dog park and lake. She got a vacation! Thanks Jen!”
“Anna took great care of our dog and was super flexible and easy to work with. She kept us updated and sent pictures throughout his stay. So grateful for her! We’ll definitely book with her again in the future! 😊”
“Leeann was great to work with! This was my first time to use rover. She made me feel very comfortable about leaving ace with her. She also sent pictures. That was great to see your pet content. I Will recommend to friends and family! Thanks again!!”
“Kaylee and her family took great care of my dog. She was responsive and attentive. They have a lovely home and a friendly dog of their own to keep mine company. I can’t recommend them any higher.”
“Bowie did awesome with my puppy! He does have an older dog but seems like my puppy enjoyed the company. Bowie kept me update and took very good care of my puppy.”
“We contacted Robbie very last minute when the other dog sitter cancelled on me the day before my trip, he was very flexible and took a good care of my dog. We will definitely use him again!”
