House Sitting in Hothouse

“Mandy did a great job. One of my pets is a little challenging, but she seemed to deal with it remarkably well. Both of my dogs were well careful and happy when I got home.”

“Taylor has watched our rambunctious dog Maggie in our home twice (both times for multiple days). He and Maggie have an excellent rapport. They clearly enjoy each other's company! An added plus - Taylor kept the house extremely neat and clean. We will definitely call him again anytime we need to go away.”

“Sherri did a wonderful job taking care of my babies. She sent frequent updates WITH pictures showing me that everyone was eating, playing outside, and relaxing. I saw no stress with any of them. Sherri was always on time and she made it easy for me to feel confident in her skills even with short notice for this job and my newness to using Rover. She left the house even cleaner than it was to begin with! I am so happy to know there’s someone who can come and stay with my older pets if I need it and they can remain in their own home in comfort and with less stress than being put in a kennel. This is the service I’ve been looking for in this area, and Sherri’s care is worth every penny of the cost. Thank you! I would highly recommend!”

“Amanda was great! She is clearly experienced with big, strong dogs and handled ours with confidence and ease. We especially appreciated how much she walked our dog. It made a big difference. On top of that, she is very personable and easy to work with. Would definitely recommend!”

“Katrina did an excellent job babysitting my five-year-old Shih Tzu, Benny. I could tell that Benny really liked Katrina at the meet and greet. She communicated with me and sent pictures during my time away, and Benny seemed very happy upon my return. I am looking forward to using Katrina again in the future.”

About: I have 2 senior dogs with special needs so I'm familiar with administering medicine & the extra care that older babies need. I've cared for many dogs & cats over the years and love them all! I'm currently working part time in the afternoons. I have my mornings, evenings & nights open to help care for your pets while you're away. Since I have many pets at home, I'm currently looking to care for pets in your home. With frequent check-ins about their care, you'll always be updated about how they're doing!

She successfully worked for Trusted Housesitters but has switched to Rover for more local opportunities. I work remotely part-time and have a flexible schedule that can meet all of your pet's individual needs. 24/7 care and attention for your animal! I understand your home is your sanctuary, and I aim to leave it as if I was never there. All poops are bagged up and properly disposed of immediately. All water drops or pee piddles are cleaned up with pet-safe sanitation spray. The door locks are always double checked upon departure. I send pictures of your pets happy and healthy during every visit.

“This was the second time we hired Ben to watch our pups. Once again, we were very pleased with how our pups were cared for. Ben was communicative while we were away, and our home was clean and tidy when we returned.”

“Yolanda did an excellent job keeping Evan at the very last moment’s notice. I felt assured and comfortable with her and knew she would take great care of my fur baby. She was wonderful and I will definitely use her services again.”

“Delaney was fantastic! Was available sort of last-minute and took excellent care of the pets and the house. When I got home, I honestly couldn't tell anyone had even been here, but for the fact that the pets were happy and healthy. :-) She sent updates and pictures, and I never had a worry. I look forward to having her here again.”
