House Sitting Elvehjem

“Askley dog sitted at our house for the weekend. She was very responsive to initial inquiry as well as continued communication. She was professional yet very friendly and asked appropriate questions about our dogs . Our dogs are quite a handful but she developed a fast relationship with them. She sent pictures and brief update daily. So glad we found an amazing caregiver thru Rover!”

“Mary stayed at our house for 10 days to take care of our dog while we were on vacation. It was nice to get some photos and videos and we felt he was taken care off. She left the house organized and we liked the communication from Mary. We will definitely ask her again if need be!”

“Ashley was wonderful - came all the way to us for a meet and greet and gave good vibes right away. Before our event, she came on time and provided updates and we felt very reassured. Our pup also loved her right away. Would recommend!”

“Ruby was very accommodating for some last minute schedule changes that occurred on my end for a weekend away! My dog and I appreciate her so much!”

“Josh is amazing! He stayed 2 nights with my 2 dogs who each have issues. One of my dogs is very anxious but Josh’s quiet, calm demeanor put him right at ease. Josh responds quickly and is on time and totally reliable. When I came home, my home was clean and the dogs were calm and happy. I would definitely look forward to having Josh take care of my dogs again!”

“We have never left our boy, Griffin for more than a couple of days before. We went on a two week trip and hired Travis to watch our big sheepadoodle. He was incredible! He sent us pictures and videos of Griffin at the dog park and around the third day, Griffin was giving him his paw and Travis was loving on him. We then received a picture of Griffin on the bed Travis used…. That sealed it…. Griffin loves him! We do too! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our boy❤️”

“Stephanie took excellent care of our 4 year old poodle, bonding with him immediately and taking him on nice walks and keeping him happy while we were gone. She even brought her own long leash so he could run around at the park while she made sure he couldn’t take off. Very kind, conscientious sitter!”

“Lizzi was extremely helpful as a holiday sitter for my dog! They provided great care and communication, and my dog and I would happily have her as a sitter again! 😊”

“Christina was great! She was punctual, communicative and ensured our girls were comfortable and safe throughout her stay. She gave periodic updates and asked questions as needed. We came home to happy girls! Thanks again, Christina”

“Katy is so wonderful that I have to leave a second review. We’ve been going through a big transition and Katy continues to meet each of my boys where they are at. Her hyper awareness, consideration, and kindness allow me to travel and not stress about any of the boys.”

About: I have had cats for more than half of my life and dog-sat for around the same amount of time. I used to dog sit two huskies all the time, had a dog of my own for a short time, and have experience dog sitting for labs as well! I have even taken care of a bearded dragon and snake on multiple occasions. Rover does not list animals other than cats and dogs directly but I am happy to arrange care for another animal as well, including exotic animals, for a fee that can be discussed. I am volunteering at the humane society and am very involved in caring for animals as much as I have time for. I am excited and ready to care for any and all pets that need it and will stick to specific details given. I won't hesitate to ask questions about the care of your pets when I have them to make sure your pet gets the utmost care and love while you're away or busy, and id yoy have plants that need watering, say the word and I'll do that too! I am currently full time in senior year of high-school and volunteering for two hours a week on the weekends, but I graduate in a month and will have all the time in the world to pet sit! I follow every instruction for food, water, walk, and treats and ask questions if I am unsure of something. I tend to stay longer than needed for check in visits just to give pets some company if I have the time. Unless pets are not very social, they will get all kinds of attention, and if they have any anxiety or behavioral differences I will be very careful and act however is best for them. I am very sure to be on time for visits and will be very specific to follow instructions for walking or being taken outside.

“Cassie was wonderful! We had no worries, as we were gone for 11 days. She stayed at our home, so it didn’t stress out our dog, Zoe. Cassie was very proactive with asking detailed questions about her and just genuinely concerned about all her needs. She even suggested coming over for some visits prior to our vacation, so Zoe could get use to her. Highly recommend!!?”

“Annmarie has watched Winston for us multiple times now. She really goes above and beyond to make sure our boy is well taken care of! Our pup is not an easy dog, and requires multiple attempts at walks and potty breaks. She's patient and caring with him - making sure all his needs are met while we're away! Not only does she take great care of Winston, she goes above and beyond to keep us updated while we're away. We're so grateful to have found such a wonderful pet sitter.”

“Nate house sat for our 2 dogs and 1 cat while we were away for a week. He was really wonderful - sent regular photos and updates, took the dogs to the dog park several times, and left the house in great shape. We absolutely recommend him and will definitely rebook with him in the future!”

“I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Elizabeth. She was so diligent about following Gus's routine, so great about keeping us updated on how things were going, and above all SO kind and understanding of our pups needs as a spicy/reactive dog. She left me completely at ease and able to relax on our trip. I am so glad we've found her and that our baby has someone he will not just be comfortable with, but excited to spend time with while we are gone!”

“Ashley did a great job pet sitting for Tallee! She has been having seizures and Ashely was confident and willing to stay with her at my home. It really helped me enjoy my time away without worrying too much, knowing she was there with Tallee. I'm so happy to have her help!”

Michelle W.

“Absolutely wonderful experience! Our pups were happy and calm when we returned home from a long afternoon/evening away. Tatyana definitely understands how to handle large, rambunctious (and love and adorable) dogs. She sent me pics throughout the evening as well, which was so lovely to receive.”

“I booked Jen to sit my senior dog who is very sweet but particular, and she did a fantastic job. Super clearly asking about his needs and his schedule so I could go on a family trip with no worries about my boy. Super timely and clear updates with fantastic pictures that made me feel immediately comforted. I’m looking forward to booking with Jen again when Peanut needs some extra care.”

“Sam took excellent care of my dogs and home. I was happy to get pics and updates, as well as to come home to a clean house. He even washed the bedsheets ? I recommend Sam for both house and pet sitting!”

“Sylvia watched our 3 dogs while we were gone for a long weekend. She sent us updates and let us know when she got there and when she was leaving. She was great!!!”
