House Sitting in Grafton Hill, Dayton, OH

“Leesa was the best sitter for our two dogs that you could ever hope for! We went on a trip for my 60th birthday and she watched the house and dogs while we were gone. She took them on walks, played, snuggled, gave their meds and fed them (she even cooked some special chicken for them!) It was like they got a little vacation too! They might have been a bit mad that we didn't cook for them when we came back, but they got over it! She sent us lots of updates and pictures the whole trip. She even cleaned up and washed the linens and towels she used before she left! We Love Leesa!”

“Elizabeth was such a great joy to have with my four legged kids today. We have had a very rough time recently with my mother having issues who was our main sitter and our one dog dying. Thus, I am in need of day sitters last minute for awhile until we can get a routine down. I want to thank her so much for all the texts and pictures with updates. It has been a very anxious time for us, and she was such a wonderful savior. It was so nice to know someone was with the dogs during the storms. She was so polite last minute when I had to find help and came out to meet dogs to learn routine. We for sure will have her again, and it might even be this weekend or this week if she is available to day sit at our house.”

“Liesa did a great job. She followed instructions and stayed a little after due to our concert going late. It was a long day and we had to leave Lily alone a couple of times already, so her willingness to stay after was a big help. We received pictures of our little girl and she was easy to communicate with.”

“Hailie and Manny did a great job watching Ella while I was out of town for a few days! Definitely will ask them again next time I go out of town and would recommend them to anyone!”

“Miranda was excellent with our senior dog and took great care of him. She made sure he was well fed, got his potty breaks, and had plenty of time for his naps. She kept us updated and sent photos while we were gone. I would highly recommend Miranda and her outstanding care.”

“Lisa was great! She was courteous, helpful, and responsive. She was attentive to Eva's schedule and respectful and clean during her stay at my place. I look forward to having Lisa look after Eva in the near future.”

“Kate went above and beyond to ensure the comfort and safety of my four dogs during a 5 day vacation. I would recommend her to anyone that really wants care and attention for their pups. Kate is, without a doubt, the best rover sitter I’ve used.”

“Shelby is an amazing dog sitter! She took great care of our dog while we were away for a week. This was our first time using Rover and Shelby single handedly exceeded our expectations! She was very attentive to Hazel’s every need. I know Hazel had a great week filled with lots of fun outdoors on walks or playing fetch with her frisbee. She even took it upon herself to bring her own treats and toys that she gave to hazel. We will definitely be using Shelby in the future!”

“Tarah is very responsive. She sends updates and pictures. She notices any changes in our baby dog. She is always on time and let's us know of any changes. We know our girl is taken care of when Tarah is watching her and gives us a peace of mind knowing she is safe. 5 out of 5 for sure. Highly recommend!”

“Took good care of our fur babies! Glad she was able to come take care of them at our house while we were on vacation. She kept the house tidy and was responsive to our messages. Also sent us pictures of them so we felt better about leaving them. She also made a sketch of them that we love!! :)”

“Hayden house sat for us with our two shih tzu boys. He provided pictures a couple of times a day with brief updates as to how things were going. The dogs were well taken care of and our house was just as we left it when we returned. He even stripped the sheets on the bed he slept in before we arrived home. I would wholeheartedly recommend Hayden for pet/house sitting and hope that we can have him stay with our dogs for future trips.”

“Danni has regularly taken care of my 7 lbs. cat and 80 lbs. German Shepherd. She's welcomed by both of my pets, and they love seeing her. Danni takes great care of them and takes her time to play with them so they aren't lonely. Very prompt, conscientious, and loving would be the top three traits I would say describes Danni's care for my pets. Highly recommended.”

“Jami was wonderful with Finn and treated him like her own! She was very communicative and a perfect house guest. 10/10 would recommend. Thanks, Jami!”

“Britt shows our dogs the exact love and attention that we do! I know they feel safe and loved when she’s with them given their excitement when she walks in the door, which makes leaving them much easier! She checks in often, and we always come home to a clean house and happy dogs!”

“Alliyah was absolutely amazing with my boys and sent me so many pictures and videos. I will definitely be using her again!!”

“My sister does a great job when she's over to dogsit my German Shepherd, Bear. He's super needy and requires a lot of attention, but she has no problem wearing him out. She also cat sits for my wife and I and does a wonderful job making sure they're well taken care of. Bear absolutely loves her and often tries to go home with her afterwards.”

“Our dogs LOVED staying with Michael. He has a pack of his own that welcomed our two dogs in quickly and seamlessly. He takes pet safety very seriously and handled introductions slowly and with great attention to our dogs. I know they were spoiled and loved like his own while there! They had a space just for themselves while still being able to run and play with his dogs. Michael sent us photos and updates regularly and whenever we asked, was extremely professional and communicative in booking, and worked with our schedule easily.”
