Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Van Alstyne
Christian was so amazing with our four month old puppy! He has a great space for them and a very big yard in the country. More than the accommodations I can tell that he loves animals. He and his child even hooked our puppy to their belt loop while they were walking around the house, which made an amazing difference in leash training. I highly recommend him and his family and I am confident we found our new Dog Sitter.!
Vanessa and Enzo were SO good with my nervous girl, Luna. They took plenty of time to explain their process and how they make sure the environment is safe and relaxed for any of the dogs in their home. Their dog, Dolce is also a sweetheart who was eager to make a new friend, while also being very patient and understanding towards my hesitant dog. I booked daycare with them this time to get Luna accustomed to the new environment before an upcoming trip - and I’m looking forward to using their services again soon for the full boarding experience.
