my dogs must have enjoyed it because they didn’t act any different getting in the car and going home. They barely missed us. I can tell this family enjoyed taking care of my dogs and I was able to enjoy my time away knowing they were in good hands.

If you want complete peace of mind knowing your pup is in great hands while you’re away, have Mary watch them! Pepper had the best time at her “homestay” running around the yard, going on walks, and snuggling on the couch. Mary is very experienced, flexible, understanding, communicative, and considerate of your usual routine. you can tell she truly cares about the dogs she watches - when I picked my pup up, she had even snuck in some unexpected treats and goodies! Cannot recommend her enough. I would love for Pepper to be cared for by Mary again in the future.

Another great experience with Rover.com Jenny and her family were just what I was hoping for. Jenny and her daughter showed their caring nature for dogs immediately. Jenny is super organized, her house and yard are well suited for dog care. Her own dog, a Boston Terrier, was a cutie and got along fine with my girls. Communication with Jenny was easy, she carried through with everything she and I discussed. She was prepared if there was an emergency, she followed my feeding instructions and sent me pictures throughout the stay. The pictures showed my dogs were very comfortable during their stay, playing, going on walks, and sleeping.

Holly is an amazing woman. She welcomed Oliver into her home so warmly and lovingly. He is a little nervous around new people. She immediately made him feel comfortable. Within minutes he acted like he lived there! He was curious and very happy exploring. He was so peaceful snuggling with her and Lisa. I was confident he would be well cared for. Holly sent me regular pictures and updates which we really appreciated and enjoyed. I highly recommend her and will definitely ask her to watch him in the future.

He came back happy and tired from all the walks and play time and he got some great socialization during his time! We will be using Scott again and again when we travel and be completely at ease knowing he’s in the best hands!

About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. Starting out with cats, dogs, turtles and fish. Caring for animals has been my life-long ambition. In addition to caring for my personal pets, I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I also plan to get my dog training certification. Currently, my animal family includes one kitty but I am very good with dogs as well. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time and availability to care for and play with your loving and amazing pet. My apartment is an excellent place for your little furry friend, as the owner of a small kitty I understand how important the safety of your pet family is.
