We send updates and photos after every visit so you can see exactly how your pet's adventure went. We use Time To Pet, a simple pet care app you'll download once you're set up as a client. After each visit you'll automatically receive a summary with notes and photos straight to your email or phone.

Rover is a platform that connects pet owners with a wide network of independent walkers. Doggie Recess is a dedicated, locally owned small business, meaning you always know who is caring for your pet.

Rover is a great platform, but as an independent business our pricing goes directly back into the care we provide with no platform fees, no cuts taken. Just honest pricing for genuine, personalized care.
