Pet Sitting Fain Park

Really appreciate your flexibility and care for the pups. Glad it worked out well and you got to see them in a natural state of excitement!

Vanessa did an amazing job. My cat is very shy and by the second day she was sitting on Vanessa's lap. She has a special way with animals. I will definitely use her again. I was very impressed.

Colin took great care of my dog and two cats while I was gone on vacation for a week. It was so nice knowing the pets were in good hands and seeing their happy faces with the check-in pictures. Would highly recommend Colin for stress-free pet care!

Johanna pulled out all the stops watching my dog, and sends lots of photos to help ease the pain if leaving my baby behind when I was gone! She was recommended by my friend, and I’ll certainly be recommending her to my other friends!

My husband and I had planned and booked a 2 week bucket list trip to Peru and were set to leave in 7 weeks. We had arranged our normal pet sitter that we’ve used for years to come and take care of our (almost) 15 year old cat, Mr. Christmas. It was around that time that Mr. Christmas stopped eating. Mr. Christmas had no real health conditions, no meds…and he was declining fast. After extensive testing, imaging, and seeing a specialist, he was diagnosed with either IBD or cancer and was going to need a lot of follow up. He was on multiple oral medications and he still wasn’t eating great. I couldn’t leave him in the house with someone who can only come see him once a day. He needed more support and our normal pet sitter couldn’t provide that for him. I was fully prepared to cancel the trip, but thought I’d go on Rover to see if anyone could match what we were looking for and if anyone would be willing to do what we were asking. We needed three, hour-long visits daily, forcing food at him, weighing him, and administering multiple daily medications. I found Melanie explaining what I was looking for, and I was really impressed that she was up early at 4:30am to message me. Melanie communicated with me each week leading up to our trip. We initially didn’t have a diagnosis and I needed vet clearance to leave him. Melanie asked many questions, and when we finally were told that he was stable enough to leave, she came over to our house with a list of questions to go over with us. He’s got a bit…a lot…of an attitude. She made sure that she didn’t approach him and waited for him to come to her. She was so thoughtful about every detail of their interaction in front of us. My husband and I both felt that even though she is a stranger to us, there was something calming about her and she was very professional. We knew Mr. Christmas would be okay, but I wasn’t expecting him to thrive the way that he did. Melanie never missed a visit. She never asked for anything from me. She communicated with me daily throughout the two weeks. She braved picking him up to put him on the scale multiple times. Mr. Christmas gained weight with Melanie. He wasn’t gaining weight with me at home, but she is just that good. Pictures of Mr. Christmas started with him sleeping alone, and then he got closer and closer to her on the couch. He even started inviting her to watch him in the litter box (I’m mortified), but he only does this with “his people”. Our dog came to visit at home a few days to see Mr. Christmas (they are besties), and Melanie had no problem cuddling our dog while visiting Mr. Christmas. To describe Melanie in one or two words, I would say she is easygoing and pays great attention to detail. She makes everything seem easy and carefree, and my anxiety really appreciated that on this trip. I got home from 15 days away from him, and he is this thick ball of fluffy happiness. He was WELL taken care of. We could have never gone on this trip without Melanie. She is a true gem and I will be referring anyone and everyone I know to her. Love, Ben, Jen, Mr. Christmas, and “his dog” Ruby.

Thank you so much for taking care of my best friend! He seemed happy and relaxed when I got home and that means so much to me. And thanks for bringing in my packages!

Madison is an absolutely wonderful pet sitter. She took such great care of our cat Lily. She kept us informed every day while we were out of town with updates and pictures for every drop-in. She really put me at ease, knowing our cat was well loved while we were gone. She is very kind and trustworthy and I would definitely have her back again!

Savannah did a wonderful job looking after our pets. Dependable, prompt with great communication. A+!

Hannah clearly loves dogs! She had a great meet and greet with Theo. She was reliable and took Theo out on walks every visit. Theo was happy and relaxed when we got back after a week away, which is just what you want! I’ll definitely hire Hannah again.

Lizzy was an outstanding dog sitter! She took amazing care of my dogs and kept me updated on everything and sent lots of photos! My dogs were super happy to see her highly recommend her as a dog sitter! She even helped with issues involving my fire alarm and stayed for my maintenance people to try and fix it couldn’t have picked a better dog sitter!

This is my second time booking with Matthew for a 5 day trip, and I’m equally as thrilled with his service as the first time. My dog absolutely loves him, and I really appreciate his daily photos and quick recap. He even alerted me to a potential hazard and resolved it right away. I know my dog will be safe, entertained, and loved on when he drops in!

This week I was unable to make it home at lunch each day to let my pups out but I wasn’t worried about them because Deidre was available to do drop in visits. She is amazing and both my pups love it when she visits them

Robin tried calmly to get my reactive dog to like her. I feel confident he will eventually fall in love with her.

Very happy with the visits Ari did this past weekend! Super friendly and caring for our baby boy Max!

Mariela is conscientious and reliable, and had fun with Theo. I was happy to know Theo was in such good hands.

Kristina was wonderful with our kitties. They seemed healthy and happy upon our return. She kept us updated with photos and messages and kept the kitty area tidy. We will definitely rebook next time we travel.

Eli was wonderful with our dogs! Even our “afraid of everything” pup warmed right up to him. Thank you for keeping them entertained while we were away.

Kate did a terrific job and took excellent care of our pets. She went above and beyond what was expected and took the time to bring in a couple packages that were delivered while we were gone and vacuumed up some kitty litter spillage. We would hire her again in a heartbeat and will recommend her to family and friends.

Thanks Taylor for all your help and for the communications this week! It eased my mind knowing Marley was in good hands. 😊

Madeline was great with the cats! Definitely the kitty whisperer, getting tummy rubs from our skiddish girl cat. Made us feel at ease being gone for a week.
