House Sitting in Bagley Downs, Vancouver, WA

“Anthea was our first experience using Rover and we lucked out! She was attentive, respectful, reliable and kind. She kept us updated with photos and texts or emails several times a day, enough that we felt safe but never bothersome. Our house was spotless when we got home, you would have never known she was there except our sweet boy was so well taken care of. I got to see their goodbye and he rested his head on her shoulder for a nice calm embrace, showing how safe he felt with her (he can be timid when we aren’t around). It was a wonderful experience and I would recommend Anthea to anyone!”

“Christianna & Nathaniel were great with Pumpkin as soon as they met her. They are both sweet and have very calm energy. They sent lots of photos and updates, and I really felt like they were taking wonderful care of Pumpkin while we were away. Plus the house was spotless when we came back! I’d love to have them watch her again.”

“Steph went above and beyond to care for mayas needs. I was worried with Mayas separation anxiety but Stephanie has the ability to calm any dog. Excellent experience! Highly recommend. Steph is now my number 1 ?”

“Jenne recently house/animal sat for me for 2 1/2 weeks. This is the first time I've ever left my animals in the care of someone other than a family member or friend. Jenne was professional in all my dealings with her both prior and during the time she sat for me. She was on time, honest and knowledgeable. I never worried about my animals while I was gone and Jenne sent daily pictures/messages. She cleaned up after herself when she left and although I left extra money in case she needed it, she left the majority (she spent $20 on food) of the money behind. I would absolutely trust her with my animals and my home again.”

“Larissa was very professional and kind with my new puppy. My puppy loved playing with her. Would surely be asking her to spend time with my puppy again”

“We so appreciated Nicky dog watching at our house. His was responsive and thorough in our communications. He took great car of our Vizsla, who needs a lot of affection and exercise. From the pictures Nicky sent, it was clear she was having a great time. He took excellent care of the house as well. We highly recommend booking with Nicky and are looking forward to working with him again.”

“Shelbie is a fantastic person. I volunteer with her at a cat shelter, and she goes above and beyond on our shift. She mostly works in the “med room” which is the room where cats who need extra TLC, or are recovering from an illness/fixing. She does an amazing job in there every week. I think of her as one of my best friends, she truly is a light to be around.”

“Camryn was very easy to work with, very professional and prompt, my dog got a lot of attention and play time, and my house was in the state I left it in when I came home. Overall very happy!”

“My dog Sammi is almost 15 years old and I'm wondering if she is acting like a teenager or an elderly girl because she likes to whine until she gets her way. Pat was our Sammi sitter and Pat let Sammi know her tricky whine wasn't going to fly. Pat was the most wonderful sitter and loved Sammi unconditionally. I'm excited that Pat will be staying with Sammi again when I take a 23-day vacation.”

“Chad was great! Sent regular updates of Julep and took great care of the house! I swear it was cleaner when I got back! Really nice to leave town knowing that there is somebody great that can take care of Julep. Thanks so much Chad!”

“Patricia was very respectful of our house and kept the place really clean. Our pup had hurt his paw the day before we left and she went above and beyond for taking extra care of him while we were gone. Would hire her again!”

“Kathy took great care of Olly and Snuggz while we were away for Christmas. She sent lots of pictures each day and was very clear about what was going on with the fur babes, even if it wasn't the best news. She was able to care for a high energy dog and a cat with meds. The house looked just as we had left it and the pets were happy and fed. I felt like they were in good hands and would recommend Kathy to others seeking a reliable pet/house sitter.”

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs all my life. Kittens, puppies, senior pets, you name it! I current have a senior cat and an adult dog (who I’ve raised as a puppy) so I’m very aware what responsibilities come with younger to senior pets. I’ve also looked after friends and neighbors cats and dogs while they’re away. Walking dogs are also my favorite thing to do! Weekends I’m available anytime. I’m also available majority of holidays. Overall I stay local since I have my own cat and dog to care for. I’m very aware of any new environment that I’m in. I believe that you should respect everyone’s space the way I would want to be treated. Understanding boundaries is also vital since everyone and their pet(s) are different. Making sure you and your pet feel safe makes me better at my job!

“Elaine was great. We knew from the time we did the meet and greet. Our dogs warmed up to her immediately, which they never have before. She played with them gave them their snuggle time and took great care. Videos and pictures of them every day to let us know how things were going. Great!”

“Sadie is amazing! This was our first experience with an in-home pet sitter and she was just wonderful - we felt very comfortable with her in our home and loving on our critters. She sent so many photos and videos and we could tell the pets loved having her around!”

“Corey is the best! He is wonderful with our nearly blind, senior dog, and our cats love him. We plan to hire him regularly when we go out of town.”

“Tania is amazing! I was getting married and in between planning for everything, I forgot about my dog. Tania responded day off and saved the day. Came exactly when she said, very easy going, excellent communicator with updates on how everything is going. She’s great with German Shepherds. Millie loved her right off the bat. Tania definitely knows dogs and is very experienced. This will be Millie’s sitter from now on. Can’t recommend her any more than I possibly could.”

“Lauren stayed f or a couple nights when we were out of town. Lucy was happy when we got home. She did not seem to mind we were even gone. We really appreciated her enthusiasm with Lucy”

“Loved all the pictures of our fur babes. Molly was able to help us out last minute and we really appreciated her flexibility. Thanks for cute photos ?”

“Katie is an amazing dog owner she has been walking my 3 year old lab dallas since he was a puppy. She has also stayed the night at my house when I've had to go out of town! Katie does an incredible job of taking care of my dog and making sure all of his needs are met and he is comfortable while I'm away!”
