“Tara was great with Trapper. She was super flexible and easy to work with and sent several pics so we knew he was having fun and being well taken care of. We weren’t sure if he’d be ok playing with her dogs, but they were super sweet and immediately accepted him as part of the group. He had a blast while we were away.”
“We were able to have a wonderful vacation without worries knowing our fur babies were in such excellent care! Justine is so conscientious and caring. It is evident that she is a true dog lover and gives lots of attention and affection to all in her care. We will always return here when we have the need. Thank you Justine! (And Roman)”
“My two dogs loved it, they had plenty of space to roam & play fetch. They were so excited to see us, as if to say “we had a great time”. Such a great location, 2 fenced acres to run & play! Pepper sent pictures & video, great comfort. We were traveling to Greenville for a conference & had no idea what to expect. Very happy.”
“Sean was absolutely wonderful with Pepper! He was so accommodating to my last minute booking and worked with our earlier than planned drop off and early pick up. For any future booking needs, I will definitely use Sean!”
“I am always so pleased with how Oliver and Ted E Bear are given such great care. I feel that this is their home away from home. I can't say enough about the wonderful care.”
“I highly recommend Landon and his family. Rosie recently had a very bad kennel boarding experience and I was worried about how she would do in a new environment with a new dog. Landon communicated well and promptly before the drop off, reassured me that everything would be fine, and let me know during Rosie’s stay that she was doing well. Rosie was happy and energetic when I picked her up and immediately knew we would be visiting with Landon and his family again. I am grateful for these kind people who are willing to care for Rosie while we’re away.”
“Emily was awesome! She kept me updated daily with pictures and text messages. I felt very comfortable with leaving my dog while on vacation with Emily. I'm very pleased and will use her for the future.”
“Raquel has been wonderful. Our dog Coco, a Pomeranian Mix, has become quite fond of her. Raquel takes pictures throughout the day keeping us posted of how Coco is doing. Would recommend her highly.”
About: I’ve been a pet sitter for more than 25 years. I specialize in senior care for dogs as well as young adults . My dogs are both rescues . I’m currently semi-retired and your pet is my priority. I am available holidays and weekend's. I have two small dogs, they are gentle and like other dogs. I have a fully fenced yard, and a doggie door leading to my backyard. I can crate your dog if that is what you prefer.
About: I have always lived in a house filled with animals inside and out. We primarily had dogs for pets and would usually at least have 2, from puppies to seniors I’ve loved and cared for all sizes and would love to care for your fur babies as well! There is no size too big or too small, I adore all very much and know how worrying it is to leave your pet in someone else’s care, I assure you they would be loved very much while in my hands! I work from home so I have plenty of time and availability to spend and care for your fur baby while you’re away! I do have my step children every other weekend so communication will be key if your pet is not child friendly and if your schedule will work for me, but I am open to working with you as much as I can! I currently have 2 indoor dogs, both crate and (mostly) potty trained. I have a mid sized boxer and a small mix breed, they are both girls that are dog and kid friendly and as sweet as can be. I have plenty of yard space(not fenced), a quiet road to walk them on, and a runner for solo outside/potty time. I do live in a dog neighborhood with lots of distractions so your fur baby would be kept on a leash at all times when outdoors
“Sara was wonderful with Koda. Sara paid attention to all of Kodas needs. She sent such great pictures of Koda while we were gone and kept in touch. Definitely using her again. Thank you again!”
About: I grew up on a farm caring for all types of animals. I’ve always had to make sure all of them were feed and water. I’ve dog sit for family friends before while they went out of town and i had to go to their house and feed, water them, take them out to play and use the bathroom, gave them baths if they need them. I took care and dog sit all kinds of animals and sizes, from puppies to older dogs, and even cats too, all up to farm animals. I’m a stay at home mom to a 2 year old. I have a 3 year old male dog that’s unaltered. I’m available anytime to dog sit or board. I have a house with a nice little yard for your fur babies to run and play! I’m always going outside every 2-3 hours almost to walk my dog. Of course I will walk your dog first because I know my dog can hold it until afterwards
“Alexandra was amazing with our little boy! She was so patient and took such good care of him while we were away. They went on lots of trips to the park and we got lots of updates. We will definitely be back and highly recommend!”

“This was my second time with Tatum and she was great! Always making sure my cat was well taken care of and even bringing some of her own treats when I ran out. She’s lovely and definitely recommend her!😊”
“Joslyn took care of our 2 senior cats for 2 weeks with daily drop-in visits. She was outstanding. Joslyn is very diligent and caring. I would recommend her to everyone and I will not hesitate to rebook the next time I travel.”
“Kathleen is truly amazing! She cares for your pets as if they were her own, showing so much attention, kindness, and genuine love. Leaving your pet is always stressful, but she made the whole experience so much easier by keeping me updated on my cat’s day. She’s incredibly thoughtful, and I can’t recommend her enough for anyone looking for exceptional care for their pets and peace of mind when you’re away from home.”
About: I've had my own cats and various foster cats in my home since I was 14. I know how to give them space, listen to what they want, or give them all the snuggles and playtime they want. I also have experience medicating a range of cats, when needed. For any boarding services, I can give your cat a whole room to themselves, with a comfy bed and window watching fun.
“Marissa was wonderful. She communicated daily on how things were going. She has a sweet, little family that makes for nice companionship. Our little guy transitioned well. We are happy to use her service again.”
“Victoria was wonderful! We met her prior to starting her drop in visits and she familiarized herself with walk procedures. Every day I received an update on her visit along with pictures of our happy doggos which made going away easier on my guilt. We came home to two happy pups.”
“Alyssa took such a great care of our cat. She always took pictures and was sending videos! Quick responding and easy to get in touch with. She always left a not with everything that she did. Definitely would’ve picked her again!”
“Lena went the extra mile to make sure my cat was fed and taken care of during the recent hurricane power outages. She deserves special recognition for her efforts and ability to overcome obstacles.”
“Brianna was absolutely amazing with our cat Toby. We got several updates, and felt at ease knowing he was in good hands. She even gave him a goody bag for his stay! So sweet and will definitely book her again!”
“It was such a pleasure meeting Stacie, and getting to know her a little, along with hearing about her own love of animals! I so appreciated the photos she sent since my two cats are new to each other and she was totally thorough in caring for them!”
About: If any of my friends and family had one to say about me, it would be the fact that I love animals and caring for them. I am always the first person they call whenever they need a petsitter! I have always had pets in my life ever since I was a kid and have had a large range of experience with different pets such as hamsters, guinea pigs, reptiles, kittens/cats, puppies/dogs, fish, goats, donkeys, and horses. I love animals of all species, sizes, shapes, and colors and am dedicated to giving them the best care possible. Although this site is designed more for dogs/cats, I am comfortable caring for all types of pets you may have! My most recent animal quest was fostering 5 feral cat/kittens, rehabilitating them, and finding them quality homes after providing them safe harbor for 4 months. I also have a lot of experience in the horse industry, I've worked at an equestrian center and owned horses myself for about 12 years of my life and know all of the ins and outs to equine care. Dogs are also a breeze for me, I have experience caring for all life stages from puppies to seniors. My dog Luna is only 2 years old herself so I went down that road of leash & potty training myself not too long ago! My family also has a 10 year old senior Labrador Retriever, Scout, that I often care for as well. Overall, I would like to say that I am very empathetic towards animals and have a magic touch when it comes to providing for their needs, comfort, and happiness. I would love to share my love and hospitality with your pets as well! I currently work part-time and have frequent availability to spend time with your beloved pets! I'm currently available all day on Mondays, anytime before 3 on Tuesdays, and all day on Wednesdays. However I do work in a restaurant, so my weekend availability does fluctuate each week. But don't worry, I will do everything I can to work with you and make myself available when you need me! I live in a 2-story townhouse with 2 spare bedrooms, so needless to say there is plenty of room for your pet. I have 2 cats Sushi and Kumi, that are dog and cat friendly, as well as a 2 year old Lab-Catahoula mix, Luna, who is super friendly and playful towards other dogs and cats as well! She loves playing with others, so your dog definitely wont be lonely! I will disclose that I'm aware that some people aren't comfortable with leaving their pets with other animals they aren't familiar with, so if that is the case then no problem! I have a garage and 2 spare bedrooms that I can keep them separated in while also giving them all the attention they require. I do not have a yard unfortunately, but there are a few walking trails in close proximity my neighborhood that I take my Luna for walks on all the time! There is also a dog park 10 minutes away that I can take your pet to at any time. I am fully capable of accommodating for all of your pets needs, I have an automatic water bowl that is cleaned and refilled daily, multiple food bowls, toys, cat trees, treats, and leashes, as well as a large crate to house your pet as deemed necessary. If it is required that I care for your pet in your home, I will assure you that I am great at following specific care routines and fully understand why they may be necessary.

“Our dog just finished having a great day with Roman and Justine. She is sound asleep now, haha. Roman and Justine were very responsive and were flexible with our schedule. We will book with them again.”
“Our dog Leo loved his short stay with Madison on Thanksgiving Day. Communication was great and she was wonderful with Leo. He had a great time and would definitely recommend Madison.”

For weekend care, I create a routine that mirrors their home life, incorporating their favorite activities and ensuring they feel secure. My goal is to provide a loving, attentive experience that keeps your dog happy and relaxed.

“Communication was excellent. This was my first time using Rover for doggie daycare. There were multiple people on site who were helping care for the dogs during the day. My dog was able to play with other medium-sized dogs. She definitely got enough exercise, and she is a higher energy dog breed (Husky). They also sent me a picture of her playing with some other dogs. And, they have air conditioned space available indoors for hotter days. We had a good experience and I would recommend them!”
“Hannah is awesome! I appreciated her sending us pictures throughout the day and updates on our two pups. She treated my dogs like they were hers and made us feel at ease. Will use again! :)”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. My own dogs, my neighbors have asked me to drop in while they were on vacation, and my parents friends have had me dog and house sit while they were away. I take the time to get to know what the pets need instead of taking a one size fits all approach. I’m available all week, whatever time. I’m not working any other jobs so I’m available whenever pets need it or pet parents want an extra check in or reassurance. I make sure they’re comfortable, whether that’s in a crate or just on a bed, constantly check their food and water, and make sure they’re good and tired before I stop playing with them.
About: I got my dog when I was 13 and she was the best thing that happened to me. She was the most loving and caring dog I ever met but lost her to a serious illness and I just love to give out my heart to animals and would love to spend some time with your animals. I am a stay at home mom and the moment. Son is five and in kindergarten and he loves animals just as much as I do but because I’m not completely over losing my dog I haven’t been able to get him a dog for himself. I’m home and have a dog park right now the road from me so keeping dogs a breeze. I always have an eye on the animals. Never feed food other then the kind given. Nothing in the rooms that they would stay in that could hurt them.
“Zoe was great with Sage! She kept me updated throughout the day and sent several pictures. Sage had a good time. She went on walks and she played with the other dogs and the cat. We will definitely use Zoe again in the future”
About: With years of experience caring for pets, I’ve developed a deep understanding and love for animals. I currently have a dog and a cat of my own. My dog, adopted at 2 months old, is now 1 year old and I’ve trained her through all of puppyhood, and my cat is 4 years old, who I’ve cared for since she was 3 months old. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to care for their pets while they’re away, and I walk and care for a dog for an elderly lady in my town multiple times a week. I also have experience with training dogs and providing attentive care for elderly pets, ensuring each one receives the special attention they need. My dedication and hands-on experience set me apart as a compassionate and reliable pet sitter. I currently work part-time and remotely with a very flexible work schedule. I am available almost every day to care for pets, and am very flexible with my hours. In my home or yours, your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I maintain a pet-friendly, secure environment with constant supervision and plenty of affection. I follow all safety protocols, including secure leashes and harnesses for walks, and I ensure a clean, hazard-free space for your pet to explore and relax. Your pet will always receive personalized care tailored to their unique needs, ensuring a happy and stress-free experience. Trust that your furry friend is in capable and loving hands with me.
About: My home is a dog-friendly, warm and inviting place where your special family member will be loved and cared for. I was a dog owner (lab rescues) for the last 12 years, but sadly my last guy recently crossed the rainbow bridge. I have a lot of love just waiting to be shared! I work from home so our time and availability is flexible! I love to take frequent walk and play breaks. And I am always up for some cuddle time! My yard is shady for dogs of all sizes. The neighborhood is pet friendly with lots of walking. I previously managed a pet sitting business within our Virginia neighborhood and can provide references.

About: Hello! I have taken care of many different types of animals, all shapes and sizes ever since I was 15 years old. I have taken care of cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, and fish! Whether it’s just one fur baby, or even up to six at a time, I can do it! I love animals and have a cat and four fish of my own—I have had a few dogs in the past as well! I would love to get to know your pets and take care of them if you need help! :) I am typically free most week days and weekends anytime to walk, feed, or play with pets. Mondays and Wednesdays I am more busy in the morning time due to classes, however I can still do drop-ins before and after on those days as well! For my current pets I keep my fish in a 50 gallon tank since they are smaller, but love the space. For my cat, Squash, she stays in my main unit with me free to roam around and cuddle with me whenever she likes. I do not offer boarding services since my complex only allows a certain amount of pets at a time.
About: i’ve had pets my whole life and even grew up with 4 dogs of various breeds and ages, as well as completed an internship at a local vet taking care of dogs and cats. I have done animals sitting since I was very young and am confident in my ability to ensure safety and fun for your pet. I am currently working part time and have most late morning to early afternoons free to dedicate to your furry friends for any services needed! I have lots of experience with dogs and cats of my own and their needs. Should your pet or you have any specifications or needs I am happy to do so. I love taking photos of animals and would love to share them with you if should wish during my time with your pet!
“Jayda is dependable, has great communication, and treats Hank like her own. I trust her completely with taking care of him. He's always so happy to see her. I highly recommend her and am so thankful for her.”
“Joslyn is such a gem! We are so grateful to have found her to walk our dog. She is always professional, very communicative, and, most of all, she takes care of our doggo and loves on her like she is her own. Joslyn is flexible and adjusts to our dog’s unique needs and preferences. She knows how to read our dog’s body language to know what she needs and when. I highly recommend Joslyn!”
About: I have always loved dogs! I used to get so mad at my parents as a kid for making our dog stay outside alone. I used to sit outside with her to make sure she always felt loved. When I turned 20 I adopted my first dog, Lily a Great Dane, and then at 23 my husband and I adopted our little chipper! We’ve had a turtle and lots of fish in between then and now! I always loved going on adventures with them: lots of road trips, hikes, runs and trips to the beach (when we lived there). Lily is no longer with us but was the best dog to adventure with. Our 13 year old chipper is starting to slow down and his arthritis is causing him to be unable to walk as far as we used to. He’s been on all the hikes around here, we would go to watering holes and beaches. With smallish kids and busy schedules we are not planning on adopting another dog anytime soon. I miss having a buddy to go on hikes in the woods with so if you want your pup to have an adventure I am here to help! I’m a full time mom but I don’t pick up my youngest from school until 11:30 am. I will have 3 hours everyday free M-Fr. I would love to take your best friend out into the woods to offer him more enrichment than he could get just in a neighborhood! I would be willing to buy a harness for a dog to be kept in the back seat while traveling- if that would make you comfortable! I’ve got window locks on my back door windows to make sure they don’t jump out. I am not willing to take a dog if the lead during hikes even if they have a great recall- too much can happen in the woods! I’m pretty confident on the hikes that I take and I only go places that I am familiar with the terrain.

About: I’ve had lifelong experience caring for pets of my own and have spent the past 6 years pet sitting for others. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly treat every pet in my care like family. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, as well as cats and other small pets. From playful puppies to senior pets who need a gentler pace, I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique routine and needs. I’m confident with: • Feeding schedules and special diets • Daily walks and exercise • Basic medication administration • Maintaining routines and house rules • Sending regular photo and video updates My goal is always to provide loving, reliable care so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I build my schedule around the pets I’m caring for to ensure they receive consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening feedings, I prioritize maintaining each pet’s normal routine. I make time every day for walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and lots of affection. I’m very mindful about not overbooking so that each pet gets the focused care and attention they deserve. Because animals have always been a big part of my life, caring for them doesn’t feel like an extra task — it’s something I genuinely enjoy and plan my week around. When caring for pets in their own home, my top priority is keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special preferences to ensure consistency and comfort. I provide: • Fresh food and water at each visit • Clean litter boxes or yard clean-up as needed • Walks and exercise based on your pet’s energy level • Playtime, enrichment, and companionship • Plenty of affection (if they enjoy it!) • Detailed updates with photos after each visit I also treat every client’s home with the utmost respect — keeping things tidy, secure, and exactly as you left them. My goal is for you to return to a happy pet and a well-cared-for home.
About: I have had dogs and cats as pets my whole life. I love taking care of animals and giving them the love they deserve! I have experience with walking, bathing, feeding, and playing with dogs and cats and I am happy to help! I am home for the summer so I will be available pretty much anytime of day throughout the week and weekend! Message me for more detailed info! I am a very neat and tidy person and always make it a priority to clean up after myself and the animals when I am pet sitting, doing check ins, etc!
About: For as long as I can remember, I have always had a dog in my life. I am always willing to make time for a four-legged companion, and because I'm athletic/energetic, I enjoy walking and playing with your dog. I have 20 years of sitting experience, five on Rover, and I've worked in professional pet boarding and training at a boutique kennel (Cuddly Critters in Greenville). I am a schedule oriented person who can easily adapt to other people's/animal's schedules. Pets always make the best companions, and I want to get to know as many as possible. I have had several fulltime jobs throughout my life, but I doubt any will be as fun as watching your dog. Recently, my career has revolved around higher education, so anything that can make a dent in my student loans is a plus! Happy to hear any questions/special requests you might have. Please feel free to contact me for anything. I'm currently working part time, but it is all remote work done via laptop. So all I need is wifi and I'm good to go. I can commit most of the 24+hrs directly to your dog. I always create a fun and safe environment whenever I'm around "our better halves" (lol). I know how to calm down anxious dogs, but also keep up with any sheep dogs you might have lol.
About: I love dogs more than anything and took care of my childhood dog for more than 11 years. I also have experience with dog walking. I recognize the love and attention dogs need and am more than happy to provide that. I am a college student with no outside responsibilities so my schedule is fairly free and flexible. I’m excited to help out whenever you need. When I’m around dogs I give them all my attention and love. Seeing them happy makes me happy and I’m thorough with taking care of them. I keep their routine consistent and follow all instructions given carefully. I will also send updates and treat your pet like family.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats with all different sorts of personalities for many years now. Friends and family rely on me to sit, walk, feed, bathe and train their fur babies. I have 8 years of experience with working in the animal field, I have worked at a doggy daycare, dog/cat boarding & at the humane society. My passion is loving and taking care of animals of any kind. I’m very trustworthy and reliable! I currently stay at home most hours of the day with my own fur babies, I’m available every day of the week at any time. I have lots of room to play indoors or outdoors & i have 4 friendly dog’s who are always looking for more friends to play with. I can crate any dog if needed.
About: I have been a pet lover since birth. Throughout my life, I had lived with dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, snakes and even a pet skunk. I have been fortunate enough to have had the opportunity to assist and care for injured and rehabilitated raptors, spent several years as a foster mom for orphaned bats, and assisted in researching black bears. I currently live with three sweetie pie pups, a 9 and 6 year old golden retrievers, Deal and Bear and a 7 year old mixed rescue named Carly. I am available to come to your home and walk, run, feed, water, cuddle, and play with your animal(s). Your pets will love me and I will love them back. I am currently working from my home, so I have plenty of availability for whatever and whenever you need someone to help out with your home and pets. I will keep a watchful eye out for your animals and send frequent photos and updates to you while your babies are under my care.
About: My name is Lena and I live in Seneca, SC. I currently work as a licensed veterinary technician at a local animal hospital and have previous experience working in boarding as well. I have a dog and 5 cats, but growing up my family was always centered around having animals like fish, birds, cats, and dogs. I would love to meet and care for your furry friends! My current work schedule is four 10hr shifts. If their care lands on a work day I’m available for before shift, during my lunch break, and after shift. I may have to work a Saturday morning but that is only until 8am-noon. I can work your fur babies schedule with mine as best I can and what you are comfortable with. I’d love to chat and see if I’m able to make it work for you. I currently am not able to host in home boarding due to being in an apartment at this time and not having the adequate space and yard.

“Tara was great with Trapper. She was super flexible and easy to work with and sent several pics so we knew he was having fun and being well taken care of. We weren’t sure if he’d be ok playing with her dogs, but they were super sweet and immediately accepted him as part of the group. He had a blast while we were away.”
“We were able to have a wonderful vacation without worries knowing our fur babies were in such excellent care! Justine is so conscientious and caring. It is evident that she is a true dog lover and gives lots of attention and affection to all in her care. We will always return here when we have the need. Thank you Justine! (And Roman)”
“My two dogs loved it, they had plenty of space to roam & play fetch. They were so excited to see us, as if to say “we had a great time”. Such a great location, 2 fenced acres to run & play! Pepper sent pictures & video, great comfort. We were traveling to Greenville for a conference & had no idea what to expect. Very happy.”
“Sean was absolutely wonderful with Pepper! He was so accommodating to my last minute booking and worked with our earlier than planned drop off and early pick up. For any future booking needs, I will definitely use Sean!”
“I highly recommend Landon and his family. Rosie recently had a very bad kennel boarding experience and I was worried about how she would do in a new environment with a new dog. Landon communicated well and promptly before the drop off, reassured me that everything would be fine, and let me know during Rosie’s stay that she was doing well. Rosie was happy and energetic when I picked her up and immediately knew we would be visiting with Landon and his family again. I am grateful for these kind people who are willing to care for Rosie while we’re away.”
“Emily was awesome! She kept me updated daily with pictures and text messages. I felt very comfortable with leaving my dog while on vacation with Emily. I'm very pleased and will use her for the future.”
“Raquel has been wonderful. Our dog Coco, a Pomeranian Mix, has become quite fond of her. Raquel takes pictures throughout the day keeping us posted of how Coco is doing. Would recommend her highly.”
About: I have always lived in a house filled with animals inside and out. We primarily had dogs for pets and would usually at least have 2, from puppies to seniors I’ve loved and cared for all sizes and would love to care for your fur babies as well! There is no size too big or too small, I adore all very much and know how worrying it is to leave your pet in someone else’s care, I assure you they would be loved very much while in my hands! I work from home so I have plenty of time and availability to spend and care for your fur baby while you’re away! I do have my step children every other weekend so communication will be key if your pet is not child friendly and if your schedule will work for me, but I am open to working with you as much as I can! I currently have 2 indoor dogs, both crate and (mostly) potty trained. I have a mid sized boxer and a small mix breed, they are both girls that are dog and kid friendly and as sweet as can be. I have plenty of yard space(not fenced), a quiet road to walk them on, and a runner for solo outside/potty time. I do live in a dog neighborhood with lots of distractions so your fur baby would be kept on a leash at all times when outdoors
“Sara was wonderful with Koda. Sara paid attention to all of Kodas needs. She sent such great pictures of Koda while we were gone and kept in touch. Definitely using her again. Thank you again!”
About: I grew up on a farm caring for all types of animals. I’ve always had to make sure all of them were feed and water. I’ve dog sit for family friends before while they went out of town and i had to go to their house and feed, water them, take them out to play and use the bathroom, gave them baths if they need them. I took care and dog sit all kinds of animals and sizes, from puppies to older dogs, and even cats too, all up to farm animals. I’m a stay at home mom to a 2 year old. I have a 3 year old male dog that’s unaltered. I’m available anytime to dog sit or board. I have a house with a nice little yard for your fur babies to run and play! I’m always going outside every 2-3 hours almost to walk my dog. Of course I will walk your dog first because I know my dog can hold it until afterwards
“Alexandra was amazing with our little boy! She was so patient and took such good care of him while we were away. They went on lots of trips to the park and we got lots of updates. We will definitely be back and highly recommend!”
“Our first time using Rover and Lauren made it seamless and easy. Loved the meet and greet to ensure everyone was compatible. Very fast communication and I felt very safe and confident in our puppy staying with Lauren and her family. Highly recommend.”
“Summer was great -- so reliable and responsive! We were visiting relatives for a football game at Clemson and we had our dog in tow. Summer watched our dog for the whole afternoon and was very understanding about the late evening pick up, given how long night football games can go. Summer sent photos and took great care of our guy, and he seemed really comfortable with her. Definitely would recommend her!”
“They were berry friendly and sent lots of pictures while we were gone. We are new to rover and they were very patient and willing to work with us when our time frame shifter, or we forgot to bring the dogs food?. Our pups were very well cared for and we will definitely be returning customers!”
