  1. This is great for dog lovers! I have never heard of it before and we just got a puppy a few weeks ago so as a dog owner, I need to check this out!

  2. Yay for a new puppy!! I haven’t heard of Rover.com! I will mention it to my sister she is a groomer and does pet sitting!

  3. My niece was just saying the other day how she wanted to do this. Sending her the link, perfect timing to see this!

  4. My brother and sister-in-law are doing this and they love it. They are big dog lovers and have 2 dogs and 2 cats of their own. I can’t even imagine what it is like at their house.
