“Wendy is seriously a phenomenal sitter. I'm so happy to have found her. She made my trio feel at ease as well as myself. She communicated daily and really made my boys feel loved while I was gone and was extremely patient with my youngest and smallest who is very finicky. The boys enjoyed Wendy so much that I've already rebooked for a longer trip. I would definitely recommend her.”

“Michelle was such a great house sitter and dog sitter! She took such great care of our boys, updating us with pictures, videos, and messages of anything going on.

We will definitely be planning on using Michelle’s services again, and I recommend anyone who is needing services to use Michelle. She is amazing!!”

I hired a sitter from Care.com months in advance, the day before I requested a visit so my dogs could met her, she was a no show, and then canceled, I hired two more one canceled the other no communication the day of the service. I Googled & found Rover, requested a shortened getaway as I lost a day and was thankful Jorge agreed to sit. Finally. stress gone. Everything exceeded expectations.

“This is now the third time we have used Shawnette to take care of our dogs while we were out of town and couldn’t be more pleased with her and her care.

About: I’ve had dogs since childhood and currently share my home with two small mixes—a dachshund (“weenie”) mix and a Brussels Griffon mix. They are well trained, well loved, and enjoy plenty of toys, bones, and affection throughout the day. Working from home allows me to spend lots of quality time with them, and I also enjoy arranging puppy playdates with other small dogs. I work at home; my dogs go out in morning until about 1pm then come in for a nap; then I let them out for about 30 min after nap then they come back in to spend time with the family. Around 6pm they spend time outside until 8pm then come in for family time again and sleep in kennels until they wake up in the morning for potty break. I have a fenced in yard and frequently check for holes under fence. The gate is locked with a thick padlock and if maintenance comes we put dogs in and we put lock back on so there are no accidents.
