House Sitting in Chelsea

“Valerie did a wonderful job taking care of our animals! When our original plans fell through, we reached out to Valerie only 2 days before our 7-day spring break trip needing in-home sitting for our two dogs and cat. Not only did she respond immediately to schedule a meet and greet same day, but she kept in consistent contact throughout her stay with photos of the animals and updates of their antics. I knew our animals were in good hands! I would not hesitate to book with Valerie again.”

“Carolyn did an amazing job with my dogs! She was very responsive, attentive and great at communicating and send pictures! I will have her dog sit anytime!!”

“Emma did a great job. Good communications. Will have back.”

“Evan was GREAT ! He contacted me very quickly regarding a medical concern one of my Great Danes was having. He was very quick to reply to all my messages and sent smiling pictures of the dogs to put me at ease. I was especially surprised to see the floors and bedding washed and clean upon my arrival. My Danes fell in love with him during the meet and greet visit and will definitely use him for all our dog care needs. Cora”

“We were so thrilled to find someone as caring and tentative as Erica! We have two energetic huskies and Erica made sure our huskies had plenty of activity while she stayed with them. She kept me updated with pictures and updates, which always makes me feel good while I’m away from my girls! Erica exceeded our expectations, was great at communicating and was wonderful to work with. Will absolutely use her for future stays. Thanks again for watching Nella and Meadow!”

“I have been using Tatiana to care for my fur baby, KC, for 5 years. She is willing to stay over night and has taken KC to her hair appointments as well as to the vet when I can’t. Tatiana is an excellent guest and she truly loves hanging out, playing and loving on KC, and KC is quite found of her!”

About: Hello everyone! I have been on Rover for a few years now and have experienced alot so far but I am sure that I will still get a surprise here and there! I try to take all surprises with grace and just learn from them! We have: bones, hard yak cheese sticks, frisbee, balls, soft stuffy toys, rope toys, bubble machine, dog pool and pounce sprinkler, lick mats, sniff mats, puzzle toys, we do some arts and crafts, homemade frozen enrichment bowls, if you request a bath for your dog I have multiple deshedding tools. Blankets, crates, extra bowls and diapers if needed. I am investing a lot into my doggy business. I recently made a small indoor gated area that has mats layed down for optimal comfort during indoor play and sleeping. I am in the process of creating an additional fenced in area in my yard that will feature a sand pit for those that love to dig, turf grass to contain the mud and a climbing feature for king of the hill! I can give your dog the patience it may need for basic training along with draining out some of the coopt up energy so they can listen better! Training in wee hours doesnt bother me at all and can even be fun. I have kids that are not rough or overly involved with animals and that also know some basic training. Any medication or special request can also be discussed and accommodated. Any questions just feel free to ask. Thanks for reading and considering me for your fur baby. I currently work from home so am pretty flexible when it comes to accommodating what works best for my pet parents! My mom is also very helpful in the chance that I do leave home, she resides with me! I have a decent sized fenced backyard for being in the city. We love to play fetch and run perimeter. Inside we like to use our indoor manners. Typically all of the dogs sleep together with blankets and cushions that I provide in a space that is about 10x10. I do have crates to utilize if it is the pet parents preference or if we have concerns with potty or chewing issues (I may utilize a doggy diaper when in doors if your dog marks inside) . Some dogs do get to sleep in a separate space from other dogs or in a room with one of my kids if that is where they feel the most comfortable and behave the best.

“Andrew is kind and caring to my pup when ever I’ve needed help. He is prompt and responsible. Teddy enjoys seeing him and can’t wait for his next walk.”

“Loree took great care of our 2 cats. She managed to get the shy cat to warm up to her. She kept us posted and followed through on everything we requested. Our cats were in good hands!”

“Breana is a huge animal lover!! She aspires to be a veterinarian in the near future. She has a dog (Olive) of her own and treats her as her own child. She keeps teaching Olive new tricks and commands so she becomes a great companion!”

“Marlena did an outstanding job house sitting for us and caring for our dog and two cats. She was incredibly responsive during booking despite being out of the country on vacation and put us at ease during the meet and greet with her experience and comfort with animals. Our dog is leash reactive, but she shared her experience working with another client’s dog and how she had managed walks with them. Our cats both need a transdermal medication 2x day, but again this was something she had experience administering to her own family cat. While we were gone, she sent us pictures daily and short updates… and cared for our house (which included dealing with a power outage due to storms which lasted ~48 hours). The animals and house all looked well cared for when we returned. Would definitely hire again.”

“Ainsley was terrific! My little Ella “told” me all about the great time she had with Ainsley. She took good care of the house, too. We will definitely use her again if she’s available!”

“As a friend of Alex’s family I have know Alex since he he was 1 year old. I have watched him grow from a sensitive, caring, playful boy to a sensitive, caring, responsible, young man. His loving family exudes warmth and love to each other and the friends in their orbit as well a the greater world at large. Alex is hardworking and would be a trusted caregiver.”

“Stephanie took wonderful care of our two dogs while we were out of town for a long weekend. I was super happy we found her. She followed all the instructions for their care. The house was tidied up when we got She also took care of our betta fish. Planning to book again in the future. Highly recommend Stephanie to look after your pets.”

“Betsy took great care of our pups while we were away! She knew what to do when our one pup had some GI distress. The pups loved the attention and snuggles and we plan to have her watch them again in the future!”

“Cam is an outdoor gal who has always gravitated to animals. Energetic and happy and loves animals. Would be an asset to your company. Thanks.”

“She did a wonderful job and my dogs seemed really happy in the pictures . In addition my dogs didn’t bark at a friend when they showed up and they always do .”

“Highly recommended! Sarah, watched our beagle, Milo, for two long winter weeks in our house. Not only did Milo LOVE spending time with Sarah he wanted to go home with her when she left! Sarah also did a great job keeping us informed and sending photos of Milo so we wouldn’t worry. Very capable and very professional. Thanks Sarah!”

“Alexis was amazing. She went way above and beyond, handling some unexpected medical issues with our dog with nary a complaint. We arrived home to a clean house and a happy and healthy pup - couldn’t ask for more. We would definitely book her again.”

“Erica cared for my pup as if she were her own. As a worried dog mom- I always felt at ease leaving my pup in the hands of such a capable, knowledgeable, and caring person. In fact, my doggo prefers her lap to mine when we're all together- a true sign of how much my pup enjoys Erica's company.”
