FOX 10 Phoenix | Dog dies under the care of Rover sitter; man wants answers @Fox10Phoenix | Uploaded October 2024 | Updated October 2024, 2 days ago.
A Buckeye man is seeking justice for his dog who died while in the care of a professional sitter.
"He was a Terrier. Terriers are full of personality. Very smart dog," Bryon Holland said about his dog, Thor.
For more than 16 years, Holland loved Thor. They moved from Wisconsin to Arizona together, going on road trip after road trip. Holland calls Thor his best friend, but the terrier was also aging. His health was in decline, specifically his vision and hearing.
Recently, Holland had plans to drive to the Grand Canyon for the day, and needed someone to watch Thor. He used a well-known pet boarding website, Rover.com, to find a nearby sitter, and planned a meet and greet at a local park the day before his trip.
"Talked about it for a while. She said she didn't think it would be a problem," Holland says.
Just four hours after dropping Thor off, however, Holland says he got a frantic call from the sitter.
"All she kept saying was 'I'm so sorry,'" Holland recounted. "I'm like, 'What do you mean you're sorry?' and she told me she was at the vet, and that he had fallen in her pool."
Holland rushed back home to get to the vet's office.
