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!”

“We have used so many dog sitters over the last ten years in the various places we’ve lived, and none of them have had to deal with even half the things Mary had to manage during her few days staying with Pax. In the very first day after we left, Pax was experiencing lots of GI symptoms which led to a lot of cleaning up after him. He also threw up his medications, leading to him having seizures. Mary was so communicative, patient, and calm throughout all of it. Last but not least, she also alerted us right away when our upstairs neighbors hit a pipe, causing a flood in our apartment. She helped to move things around in our apartment, tried to do what she could to protect our things, and was able to wait with Pax while we figured out other arrangements. Mary is truly an angel and we are so thankful she was there with Pax through all of that. We only hope that the experience didn’t scar her for life and we’ll be able to see her again!”

“Samantha was phenomenal! She provided great communication and provided good updates with my dog. She took amazing care of him. I had her housesitting for me and she was extremely respectful of my apartment as well. I would absolutely have Samantha help me out again!”

“Travis did a great job with our two dogs and cat! He was very attentive and caring to our animals, which we greatly appreciated. He sent us pictures and kept in touch with us daily too, which we asked for and loved. He was also very responsible at our home and left it in the same condition in which he found it. Highly recommend and will hire him again.”

“Ruby did a great job taking care of our two labrador puppies (9 weeks and 9 months old). The pups seemed very happy and content when we came home.”

“Josh was wonderful! Our dog can be wary of new people, but Josh took the time to get to know him and let Coqui warm up to him slowly. He was respectful of our property (left our house so clean), was highly responsive, and communicative. We will definitely hire Josh again!”

“Paige did an amazing job house sitting Tessa! She sent me updates and photos and I can tell she really cared. Tessa is a timid rescue so it was great knowing she was comfortable in great hands.”

Virginia R.

“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!”

Rachel M.

“Talia did a great job sitting for my dog Koko and she was very responsive in her messaging replies”

Kyle C.

“Ashley was a dream sitter! Our shy, skittish pup fell in love with her immediately — he looked so happy and at ease even in the very first picture she sent! She was communicative, followed his medicine regimen, and clearly cared about him. We wouldn’t trust just anyone to be with our boy during his least favorite day of the year (July 4), but Ashley went above and beyond to make sure their time together was safe and fun!”

Emily G.

“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!”

“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!!?”

“Tatyana was great with my pups! She provided the perfect amount of updates and even left me flowers and a note congratulating me on my first home purchase ☺️”

About: I have owned 4 dogs in the past 30 years; a Chihuahua/Toy Terrier, a Chihuahua/Shitzu, a Dachshund/Corgi and I recently owned a Toy Poodle - who was elderly, anxious, blind and toothless. She recently crossed the rainbow bridge and I miss her so. She was my world! My past dog sitting experience includes overnight care for; a Keeshond, a Terrier, a medium sized mixed breed, a Japanese Chin/Poodle, a Standard Poodle, a Sheltie, and a Pomeranian. Dogs are my special interest and I enjoy loving and caring for them. My 30 years of experience with different dog breeds and temperaments has shaped my ability to have realistic expectations, intentional patience and flexibility with the individual dog personalities that I have encountered. They are all good dogs and I love them all! I am available most days and evenings. I can make home visits to let your dog/s out, walk your dog/s, and/or pet sit overnight as needed. I am flexible with how I can care for your pet. My intention is to keep your dog/s in the routine that they are familiar with so that they can be the calm, happy dog/s they are destined to be. Unfortunately, I am unavailable to have your dog/s in my home because I live in an apartment.

“Louisa was excellent! She was so thorough in our meet and greet making sure she was aware of any and all needs Ollie might have. Ollie loved her right away which made me feel very comfortable. Louisa was great at communicating and sent pictures during the sit which I appreciated. Highly recommend her and will certainly have her care for Ollie in the future!”

“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”

“Isaac is fantastic, he watched my senior dog while out of town over the holiday. He made it very easy for me AND WENT WAY ABOVE AND BEHOND. As the first big snow storm moved through while I was gone and I didn’t have anything prepared for it. Isaac jumped in and did what needed to be done. Will book again.”

“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.”

“Renee was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! So accommodating, GREAT communication and just a really great person to work with. You know your dog is getting 100% attention and love when you come home and they're completely worn out. At an energetic year old, Asha NEVER gets worn out from playing...that is until she met her match in Renee! This was out first time using Rover and it was last minute and I had my concerns just because we had to trust this person in our home for the first time without ever meeting her. Every concern was gone as soon as I met Renee! I can't recommend her highly enough! She's amazing!!!”
