House Sitting in Chester

“Talia is amazing. Duke enjoyed his time with her and has a new buddy Finn. She sent us lots of pictures of all of them on theirs walking adventures and cuddles in the house. We will definitely be using her again! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter for their pet!”

“Kyra has cat and house sat for me on many occasions She is a sweet and gentle soul, and absolutely loves all animals and children too She is smart and resourceful, and I have never had any concerns regarding leaving her in charge of my home or pets I highly recommend her. She is a truly lovely human being. Best regards Lisa”

“Laura’s care for our three dogs was beyond our expectations. She is kind, professional, very experienced and a dog lover indefinitely. We did not have a single worry on our trip away because we received updates multiple times daily. We will be taking advantage of her services again and would highly recommend her to other pet owners.”

“Timea is a very kind and generous person! She gave 110percent to looking after Charlee! She was very helpful in transitioning Charlee to her care by meeting with us and her multiple times to allow Charlee to become familiar with her before we left. Always responded very quickly to any communication. Provided pictures every day. I would 100 percent book Timea next time!”

“Rowan is, by far, the most trustworthy person I know. Shes also a HUGE animal lover. We have 6 dogs, 3 of which are rescues, so we are very particular about who cares for our dogs given their tough starts. They are our babies! I 100% trust Rowan with our dogs. She’s the absolute BEST! You won’t regret it!”

About: I have been around animals since I was a baby. I have experience in taking care of dogs including training. I have 3 dogs right now and. They are all well trained. I have experience taking care of birds, fish, cats, dogs and horses. I would treat your pets as my own and as a fellow animal lover I will strive to make sure you have nothing to worry about while you are gone. I am available most evenings and weekends. Just reach out and I’ll let you know if I can help out in any way. I am usually done work by 4pm and weekends are fully open and free. I have a home with 3 dogs and 2 cats. I have a big yard but also I have great hiking trails nearby. My dogs are friendly and are well socialized and my cats are used to dogs. I also have a car and can provide support anywhere in the city.

“I’ve seen Sue strap on snowshoes to walk the dog because the snow was so high. In a word dedicated. I know she spoils my pets-they love her.”

“Lyne is a wonderful person and an incredible dog sitter. I would highly recommend her to care for your dogs. My dogs love her and I feel relaxed knowing she is giving them such love and care when I have to be away from them.”

“Carlene is amazing! I have to admit that my partner and I are totally obsessed with our dog, and even though she's very easygoing and loves everyone, the idea of leaving her alone with someone new used to fill us with dread. But Carlene made us feel at ease instantly: she had an obvious, immediate connection with our dog, and we could see that she'd be in the best possible hands while we were away. We'd recommend Carlene to anyone - it's hard to imagine a more trustworthy, capable carer for your pet!”

“I can;t recommend Patric highly enough. He is wise, caring, sensitive, good humoured and a joy to be with. And he brings all of that to his relationships with dogs, who adore him. I’ve known Patric through his 3 Bulldogs, both as they lived and, with 2 of them, as they passed on. None could be a better dog parent, foster parent, or caregiver. I would and have trusted Patric with my life and with my dog’s life. And with all that going for him, he has no ego or vanity. He is self effacing. If you would like to hear more about Patric, I can be reached at Nlevine@mts.net. There is no one I know who is better suited to care for dogs. They are his passion. Naomi Z. Levine, LL.B., LL.D.

“Jolyne is awesome with pets! I have a dog at home and she's the best dog aunt ever!! She is very responsible and trustworthy so if you need someone to take care of your pet she would not disappoint.”

“Nik was awesome! They were able to sit on short notice which really saved my vacation! They did a fantastic job introducing my dogs to their dog. I loved getting the videos of their fun! Everything was well taken care of while I was away. I most certainly would recommend Nik! thanks!”

About: I take care of friends and family’s pets on the regular. Grew up with a lab and Airedale terrier, recently taking care of high energy husky.

Tons of trails in the woods that are unknown. Remote quiet escape. Access to fenced in play area nearby. Fresh water swimming hole. Private beach in backyard, calm water and great for swims.

About: I was 9 years old when I first experienced what it was like to be responsible for a dog, he was a small mixed breed. I cared for him like a doting mother. Many years after my first furry companion, I brought home a Lab mix and that’s when I experienced a different kind of responsibility. It was long after bringing him home that I found out he had epilepsy and I quickly learned what to do in difficult situations. Following my two childhood pals came many different furry friends from rabbits, cats, many different breeds of dogs, horses and chickens. All with their own unique personalities. I’m a stay at home mom. I can be flexible with times and dates if given an advance notice. 8:30AM-2:30PM Monday-Friday (and/or 5:30PM-7:30PM) MSG for weekend availability. Pet care location is typically in my clients home but can vary depending on clients request/needs/wants. I am also able to take your furry pal anywhere they may need to go via my own transportation with advanced notice.

“Being completely new to Rover, we were a little intimidated and skeptical of the process at first; however knowing we needing a sitter, something kept me drawn to Amber’s profile. Let me tell you that, within five minutes of our initial meet & greet any and all worries we’re completely washed away. Her personality is beautiful, her love and passion for dogs shined through and it was evident that she had much knowledge and experience in the field. I just knew that our dog was in very good hands. While away, she gave us just enough updates to reassure us that everything was going well back home and that we could enjoy our time away. If you are in need of a dog sitter, do not hesitate to reach out to Amber .. we are so glad we did!”
