Top rated Lake Edge house sitters

“Katie was fantastic with my dog, who really seemed to take to her and wasn't anxious as he sometimes can be in new settings with new people. Katie sent frequent updates and photos, always seemed to have my dog's best interests in mind and she quickly adjusted to some unavoidable last-minute changes in the booking. She really helped me out in a challenging situation, and I wouldn't hesitate to book her again.”


“Appreciate Jolie's diligent care for my buddies while I was away. Communicated well and tended to each of my dogs specific needs. Would be happy to have her back the next time I need a sitter.”


“Samantha is a very good worker. She is very responsable and she is always on time. She took care of Rokko very well and Rokko was very happy since the first moment. We appreciated her work very much.”


About: Experienced caring for dogs of all sizes, along with house cats, rodents and reptiles. Particular experience with medium and large size dogs who are anxious/reactive. Rates lowered while I establish myself on Rover. I work from home, so your dog will get a lot of attention when I care for them (and they'll probably get a nickname or two). Walks, bathroom breaks, visits to the dog park, and lots of pets and ear scratches all fit into my daily and weekly schedule with ease. I have a lot of experience with anxious dogs in particular, so am used to reading what a dog needs and wants with a close eye. I take care to make sure that a dog is comfortable with me, that I respect their boundaries, that I respond to their needs, and that we remove ourselves from any situation that might upset or overwhelm them. I often ask a pet owner for details about their dog's usual routine, any particular habits they have, their behavior on leash, and what gives them comfort. This helps me better respond to what the dog is sharing about their needs.

“Tessa was great at communicating with us and always responded quickly. She took our pup on walks and played in the backyard with him. She stayed overnight with him and we couldn’t be any happier. Would highly recommend for others!”


“Natalee was phenomenal with Remora! Consistent updates, cute pics of my cat, and very reliable with scheduling and coordination. Natalee took great notes to make sure Remora was cared for the best as could be. Thank you!!”


“We had Travis stay with our dog again, and it was seamless. He is so conscientious and considerate. Our dog loves him and again the house looks great! I highly recommend him!”


“Stephanie took excellent care of my diabetic dog who had some surprise additional restrictions after a tooth removal earlier that week. Additionally, she left my house spotless.”


“Vanessa was great! My dog loved her. Very communicative and goes the extra mile. I will definitely book her again.”


“Drew is terrific. Or flight home was delayed and caused us to miss our connection… would’ve been sick with worry but Drew cared for our pup and stayed an extra night. Returned to a happy dog and clean home. So happy!”



“Leah did an amazing job for us both pet sitting and house sitting! She was an excellent communicator and flexible with us since we had an unanticipated home repair come up while we were away. Our dogs loved her, and she was a conscientious and considerate caretaker. I would not hesitate to hire Leah again.”


“Lauren and Nia were great with our pets and us! This was our first time using pet sitters and they really helped put us at ease through the process. With picture and video updates we knew our dogs and cats were having a good time and being well cared for. Highly recommend using them!”


“Maddie was an excellent dog sitter to our three dogs, two huskies and a Jack Russell. The pictures sent during our trip helped us feel at ease knowing they felt safe. Plus, her extra effort walking the pack above and beyond was amazing. When we arrived home, they were so relaxed almost like we hadn’t been gone! Even our one dog who is anxious was very quick to settle in like no time had pass. We would recommend Maddie to anyone!!”


“Good communication and appropriate check ins. Handled being accidentally locked out very well when the battery to my keypad lock died. Would book again.”


“Karina did a wonderful job looking after our cat for a long weekend. We came back to a relaxed cat and a house in perfect order. Thanks, Karina!”


“Joshua was fantastic from the start! He took such great care of Millie & Hope and provided daily updates. The house was spotless after a week of being gone & the dogs were very happy!! Would certainly recommend Joshua and will definitely use him again in the future!”

“Amanda was amazing and worked wonderfully with our pets, we will definitely be using her services again!!”


“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.”


“Morgan was great! She stayed three nights with our cat. It was comforting knowing that he was getting attention and snuggles while we were gone. He was in a good mood when we returned home. I could tell that he was well-taken care of. I would use Morgan’s services again!”
