House Sitting In Glendale

“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!”

“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.”

“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.”

“Mary followed all my instructions perfectly and left copious notes about her time with the dogs. My dogs can be challenging but she handled them like a pro! My house was just as I left it when I returned.”

Katie S.

“Our home & animals were well cared for and the place was left in better shape than we left it. Daily pics and happy animals. We’re sad Kaitlyn isn’t staying in the area for long because we’d definitely book her again.”

“Tatyana did a great job with our three dogs who range in size from a 90 lb German shepherd down to a 25 lb mutt. She sent pictures and videos, and with it being the first time she watched our dogs, it made me feel 100x more comfortable. We also had one dog who needed to take medication that she ensured was administered.”

Paige S.

“Nate took my last minute request and I couldn’t have been happier. He was on time ( early even ) and took my Darcey to the park while I was away and took pictures and updated me. I really appreciated his time and will be using him in the future. Highly recommend if you need someone who handles behavior issues well. My Darcey isn’t the nicest when first meeting a stranger but this didn’t seem to bother Nate. Thank you again so much !!”

“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!”

About: Growing up I have always been around animals. I've had dumbo rats, fish, cats, and dogs, so I've had a variety! I have been a regular dog walker & cat sitter for several families since I was a freshman in HS. My senior year of High School I was a Youth Apprentice at Four Lakes Vet which taught me so much about how to care for animals and learn more about the world of Veterinary Medicine. I'm currently a sophomore at University of Wisconsin-Madison studying Animal and Veterinary Biosciences! I am currently a sophomore at University of Wisconsin-Madison studying Animal and Veterinary Biosciences. During summer, spring, and winter breaks I am typically very available for any kind of pet sitting. During the summer I coach a swim team in the evenings and the first part of my Saturdays are usually busy until 1-2pm due to coaching swim meets for the team. When caring for animals in my home I am very affectinate and attetnivde to what they need and when they need it. For clients pets I make sure I am following the correct instructions and because I'm Fear Free certified from working at Four Lakes Vet, I make sure to not overwhelm the pet. I am usually very good and monitoring their anxiety or stress levels and make sure to respect boundaries! I also make sure to respect the privacy throughout the home of the clients as well!

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.

“Samuel was fantastic! Our two dogs and cat were well cared for, and the house was spotless — he even washed the sheets and towels. Highly recommend and will book again.”

About: Dogs bring so much joy to my life, and I love giving that right back to them. I’m new to Madison and working as pharmacy resident so don’t have time for my own pup but have so much love to share! I work full-time as a pharmacy resident during the day, so I’m available for evening walks after 5 PM on weekdays. I have full availability on weekends. Safety is always my top priority on walks. I stay attentive, use secure handling, and tailor each walk to the dog’s pace and comfort level.

“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.

“Mallory has been amazing! She has watched my dog twice now and each time has gone very smoothly. My large dog is very sweet once you know him but has a protective streak that can make initial meetings difficult. However, Mallory instantly put him at ease and clearly knows when to give dogs space and how to best approach. My dog loves her and I always feel comfortable leaving him in her care. 100% recommend!”

Melissa S.

“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!”

“12 out of 10. Jessa truly saved me with a last minute request after I had a few rover sitters canceled on me. She came and met my dogs and also was gracious enough to keep an eye on my garden. I will absolutely be using her in the future.”

Mackenzie S.

“We were very pleased with Karina house sitting for us! She asks about specific commands, dietary needs, and preferences of our dog, which was incredibly sweet and thoughtful. She also provides detailed updates and appears to really adore and read pup personalities well. We would highly recommend Karina and will definitely reach out to her again!”

Na L.

“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.”

Marian A.

“Sidney was amazing! She sent me pics and updates of my pup and took great care of him while I was away, I would 100% recommend her!!”

Hannah M.

“We've never had anyone watch our cats except for family. I was extremely nervous, but after reading Abigail's profile, and watching her interact with our cats at the initial meeting, I knew I had found the right person! Abigail took lots of notes and asked tons of questions to make sure she had all the information to not only cat sit, but stay in our house for 12 days. Both cats immediately took to her like they were long lost besties. We were out of the country, but I received multiple photo's and video's every day so we never felt like we were so far away. The people we were traveling with were impressed with the number of pictures, updates and video's we received. Somehow she even got the picky eater cats to eat more than they do during a normal day. If I ever need someone to care for our pets in the future, Abigail will be the first person I look for!”
