Top rated Burkhardt house sitters

“Rebecca was a wonderful sitter for our dog. She was very professional and communicated with us at regular intervals while not being overbearing. Rocko takes several daily pills and has arthritis, but we felt very comfortable with him in Rebecca's care. She took great care of the house, too, even lugging in a dog food delivery that accidentally auto-shipped while we were gone. Would highly recommend Rebecca's services and look forward to using her again.”


“Leesa was amazing. She was so attentive to our 5 furbabies while we attended a wedding. She sent video and pictures which kept us content while being away from them for so long. She is awesome!”


“Mia was awesome when she stayed at our house to watch our 2 dogs. She sent updates and pictures, and made sure they were well taken care of all weekend! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! My dogs seemed so happy with her!”


“Katharine was great! She followed the instructions we left, kept all of the animals happy and our home was left in great shape. We appreciated all of her updates throughout the day and spending time at the house so that our puppy was able to play and run around while we were away. We’d absolutely hire her again.”


“Chloe is an outstanding sitter! She took great care of our pups, communicated well, and we felt so comfortable leaving our dogs in her care. Will definitely use her again and again and again!”


“Michael took care of our dog and cats while we were out of town and he did a great job! He was polite, punctual, and communicative. He sent many updates and photos, which we love! Would definitely recommend him and we plan to use him again!”


“I have never left on vacation without feeling complete angst about leaving my dogs behind. They usually spend the entire week hiding under the bed when we hire house sitters. But with Monroe, they seemed to not even realize I was gone! When I returned it was just like I came home from work that day - they were relaxed and happy to see me then went on about their day. I can't say enough good things.”


“Janice was amazing while taking care of Nacho and house sitting. Updated and pics were frequent and reassuring. House and Nacho were well taken care of. Will definitely look to book again. Thank you Janice!”


“Christina was EXCELLENT! She made us feel comfortable at the meet and greet. She took good care of our 2 furbabies for 2 nights in our home. Christina shared info with us while we were away and also sent pictures. We would highly recommend her and will be booking her again!”


“I give Ben an A++. I couldn’t have asked for a better new buddy and caregiver for my fur babies. Ben’s calm and welcoming presence is exactly what my dog needed while I was away. I feel so much better knowing they are just as cared for and loved as when I am home.”


“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.”


“Valerie was great! She sent photos and kept us updated.”


“Sophie was amazing with our pups. They have missed her since we got home. Dogs had plenty of attention and she even took them on a walk. Will definitely use her again!”


“This was my 1st time using Rover and having a dog sitter that comes to my house. Yolena was very great with caring for my 3 dogs. She gave me daily reports and addressed any concerns or questions I had. I plan on using her services again in the future.”


“Brooke did an amazing job taking care of my pups! She made sure they got plenty of exercise daily before all the rain during my trip. She provided pictures and videos to show me they were doing great. I definitely recommend her and will be rebooking for future needs.”


“Petey was absolutely amazing with my two pups. He checked in with us multiple times a day and when one of our dogs wasn’t feeling well he did a wonderful job of taking care of her. He will definitely be our 1st choice dog sitter moving forward.”


“Emma did amazing with my senior dog.”


“Jasmine was flexible with a short notice booking and took great care of my pup while I was out of town. She sent pictures to keep me updated and even came back the last day in the afternoon for one last potty break even though my mom already came home to take over watching Hazel. Would definitely book her again in the future!”

“She was great with our dog and this was our first time using this app and it was perfect t . Definitely will request her again.”


About: My latest dog, a very timid shy dog has taught me a lot! I now have more knowledge about canine behavior in particular, but I have had cats my whole life. I am a great observer of body language and recently gone through training with my own dog ( positive reinforcement based with treats), so that is fresh in my mind. I now have a senior cat who I have to care for with asthma and beginning kidney failure and saw my last dog through his senior years. I am happy to play if that is something your animal needs or we can go on walks. I will also just patiently wait for your dog or cat to trust me if they are slow to warm up! I'm at home with my own dog that I care for with activities. I'm hoping to make this a decent gig for myself so I have a very open schedule to work with! I'm here to do whatever you would like me to whether that's walk, play with, or just spend time with and feed your pet. I will only do what everyone is comfortable with. Let me know what a regular day looks like so I can do my best to mimic that routine for your pet!
