House Sitting East Richmond Heights

“Alexandra recently stayed at our house for 5 days and care for our two dogs. Our older dog is 16 and is blind and deaf. He requires meds twice a day and needs to be carried outside to pee and poop. Our other dog is an energetic goofball who barks when excited and requires a great deal of reassurance. Alexandra was a pro. She was unflappable. Throughout the week she sent updates every day and pics of happy dogs! The house was left in perfect condition. We couldn’t be happier!”

“Mason is an AMAZING dog sitter. He stayed with our dog Harley for about 10 days over the holiday break. He took great care of her AND of our house. He's responsible, responsive, and Harley loved him. Here's all the proof you need: Mason stopped by our house the day after we got back from our vacation. When Harley saw him at the door, she ran to him, started spinning circles, wagging her tail and then cuddled up to him like he was family. I highly recommend Mason and plan on working with him again. Harley is usually suspicious of new people but instantly took to Mason at the meet and greet. While we were away, he took her on lots of walks both in the neighborhood and around Tilden Park. Harley can be reactive to other dogs, but Mason had good strategies for dealing with it on these walks -- he's clearly experienced and knew exactly what to do. He also played fetch and rope tug in our back yard, and took care of her daily meds as well. Mason sent us photos each day, responded quickly when we texted him through the app, and when our return flight was delayed, he agreed to stay a few extra hours. When we got home, the house was sparkling clean, just as we left it. What more could you ask for? Thanks Mason!”

“Anita was fantastic while watching Hobbes, very communicative and caring for her while I was away. Everything was nice and orderly when I came back. I’ll definitely look to book with her again next time I have to travel! Thanks Anita ?”

“Jennifer is a “dogsend.” Our two dogs are anxious and she connected with them quickly. She also graciously dealt with our Shepherd-mix, Phoenix, being sick a few times. She updated me throughout and I know she treated our 2 dogs and cat like her own. Highest recommendations for Jennifer!!!”

“Rachael did a wonderful job house sitting our senior terrier mix, Jock. He can be shy with strangers but took to Rachael right away. Her communication was great - a daily update with lots of pictures (it was very clear how relaxed he was). I highly recommended her and will likely use her services again in future.”

“Matt and Cheri have been great. I highly recommend Matt as a dog sitter, especially for pets with specific medical needs. Matt recently cared for my diabetic dog, Piper, which required a complex routine of feeding on a precise schedule, administering insulin, and managing daily walks. He handled everything exceptionally well, ensuring that Piper’s glucose levels stayed within the target range—our biggest concern. Matt’s reliability and attention to detail gave us peace of mind while we were away. Piper was in great hands!”

“Professional and kind from start to finish! Sofia took the time to meet Olive ahead of watching her and kept me updated with messages and pictures the day of. She left my apt exactly how I left it and I could tell Olive had a great time. Would definitely book her again!”

“We joined Rover hoping to connect with someone who is kind, responsible, caring about animals and above all, patient, who we could forge a relationship with that would be durable for the long-term. Ikeena has all of these qualities. As a family that travels regularly, whose family and friends have generally all grown-out of the idea of a week at our place as a mini-getaway, we are so thrilled to have connected with her. We got to know each other over zoom and some schedule walks and impromptu hellos and Ikeena dealt with our nerves of building trust with aplomb. Never were we made to feel silly for wanting to meet again or another walk or for having a several pages long doc about staying at our house and caring for our sweet little brown boy, Chicks. During her recent stay here we barely worried about a thing. Ikeena kept in touch with us regularly and Chicks seriously enjoyed being not just cared for, but spoiled by her. She went above and beyond!”

About: We have been caring our rescued chihuahua mix since 2018. We have also help our friends and families babysit their dogs when they go on vacation. My partner and I currently working remotely at home; thus, our schedule is flexible. Once we are done with our work, we have plenty of time to serve your pet. I will treat your pet like my own pet. I will make sure your pet has access to water easily and have meals at their regular time.

About: Over the last few years I've become my friends, and friends of friends, go to person for pet care! I've always loved animals and grew up with pups in the home. During COVID I started sitting for friends and colleagues of mine who had to return to the office. My flexible WFH schedule gives me plenty of time to go on walks, feeding, and of course play. I also have a pup of my own and am comfortable working with puppies. I work remotely so my schedule is extremely flexible! Here is a rough idea of my schedule, although there is definitely room to move things around: open Mondays, Tuesday’s early morning , open Fri-Sun. I treat every pet that I am with as if they were my own! Every pet has different needs and I pride my myself on noting the needs of each one that is in my care. I always ask owners about house rules as well as their pets like and dislikes so I can make sure I'm keeping them safe and happy. As a pet owner myself, I only hope to give the owners the peace of mind knowing their pet is getting the best care and attention!

“Liliana was amazing with my babies and she gave my high energy dog plenty of exercise. She was great at sending photos of them while I was gone. Super on it, and also took great care of my house. Highly recommend!”

Just reach out and let me know :) ❤️🐾I can drop in anytime you want and check on your pets, feed them, brush them, clean them, walk them, and give them attention while you’re gone.

“Irina is truly wonderful, she takes great care in taking proper care with your pets and home while we were away for 2 weeks. I had a big concern because I didn’t have a good experience with a previous sitter and my dog needed extra attention for her mobility. Irina was up for the job, and I felt at ease and felt I could enjoy my trip without worry! Would definitely recommend, and I would book her again :)”

“Kyla did a fantastic job taking care of my dog Jade, who can be quite a handful and has some unique training requirements. She exudes a warmth and kindness that Jade bonded with immediately, and she rose to the training challenges with total competence and professionalism. I would absolutely hire her again.”

“Hollie is wonderful! On her first time sitting for us she walked in to a bit of a mess. My pup had a poop accident. Hollie quickly helped clean up L. She cleaned my pups behind up and even with such an intimate introduction he adapted to her quickly. Hollie is also a great communicator and kept me informed on how everything was going. I highly recommend her and will absolutely be asking her to sit for us again!”

“Fuliang was amazing! He responded right away and quickly scheduled a meet & greet. He was prompt, took great care of Hampton, and left our place spotless. We felt comfortable and updated the whole time. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I'm Nicole, and I've been caring for dogs through Rover for nearly ten years. I know how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your pet, and I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. I've had dogs my entire life, including Labs, rescues, and senior pets, and have experience with dogs of many different ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your dog loves long walks, exploring new trails, playing fetch, or simply curling up for a quiet afternoon, I'm happy to meet them where they are. I work primarily from home, which allows me to provide lots of companionship, regular potty breaks, exercise, and attention throughout the day. I love spending time outdoors, and dogs in my care typically enjoy multiple walks each day, along with plenty of rest, enrichment, and affection. I know leaving your dog with someone else can feel stressful, so I make communication a priority. You'll receive regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pup is safe, happy, and well cared for. I'd love to meet you and your dog. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions! I work primarily from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend plenty of quality time with the pets in my care. I do teach a few yoga classes in the evenings, but pets are typically left alone for no more than about three hours at a time. I'm available on weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I provide overnight house sitting so your pets can stay comfortable in their own home and maintain their normal routine. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pets. I take the time to learn your pet's routine and preferences and follow your instructions closely, from feeding schedules and medications to favorite walking routes and bedtime routines. I'm experienced caring for puppies, senior dogs, rescue dogs, and pets with special needs, including administering medications when needed. Dogs are always walked on leash unless you've told me otherwise, and I prioritize safety, consistency, and calm care at all times. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your trip knowing your pets are happy and well cared for.

“It was a pleasure to work with Patricia, who stayed at my house for five days and took care of my eight-year-old mini doodle, Ruby. Patricia was highly communicative leading up to her stay, sent daily pictures of Ruby while I was on my trip, left the house spotless, and even helped out with our parakeets. When I met Patricia during our meet and greet, I could see that she is a truly lovely and kind person. I look forward to working with her again. Patricia is highly trustworthy, responsible, and most importantly took great care of Ruby, I cannot recommend her services highly enough!”

About: I have taken care of pets for over 10 years around the world! Neighbors, friends, families and acquaintances have all trusted me with the livelihoods of their loved ones. I can administer medication, go on as many walks as needed, drive or walk to the dog park or just cuddle on the sofa if you pet loves that too! I work as a school teacher and am an online grad student but am able to come and go as I please so my schedule is quite flexible! I am very mindful of your pets care, safety and security while they are in my trust. I can crate your pet, calm them down and care for them as per your instruction.

“Rachelle is prompt and responsive! She's very pleasant to deal with, she pet sat our dog for 2.5 days in our home while we were away. My pup was very calm and relaxed when i came home, which was great, since he can be very anxious at times. I will definitely contact her again, the next time we need to be away from home!”
