Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Forest
Morgan is by far the best dog walker I have gotten on this app. She is very good with my boys. She met with me beforehand to see if she was compatible with the dogs. Before she left, she handed me a sock so that the dogs can get familiar with her scent. I thought that was so thoughtful. She is very gentle with them and she can follow the directions needed to keep the dog safe. She even bring in Amazon packages if she sees them on the porch. I asked her if she would be flexible to picking up more days just in case I have to work late, and she was all for it. Overall, she’s just a thoughtful kind and caring person and I’m glad I chose her to walk my dogs.
