House Sitting in Linden Heights, Dayton, OH

“Leesa was wonderful with our girls! She always sent updates throughout the day and made sure that we knew how well they were being taken care of. Leesa took the time out of her day to visit with our dogs a few times even before our vacation so she could get to know them, and so they would be comfortable with her. After a long day of traveling home we came home to a clean house, handwritten note, and two happy dogs :) We will be booking with Leesa again for any upcoming vacations that we may have!”

“Elizabeth was such a great joy to have with my four legged kids today. We have had a very rough time recently with my mother having issues who was our main sitter and our one dog dying. Thus, I am in need of day sitters last minute for awhile until we can get a routine down. I want to thank her so much for all the texts and pictures with updates. It has been a very anxious time for us, and she was such a wonderful savior. It was so nice to know someone was with the dogs during the storms. She was so polite last minute when I had to find help and came out to meet dogs to learn routine. We for sure will have her again, and it might even be this weekend or this week if she is available to day sit at our house.”

“Hailie and Manny did a great job watching Ella while I was out of town for a few days! Definitely will ask them again next time I go out of town and would recommend them to anyone!”

“Liesa did a great job. She followed instructions and stayed a little after due to our concert going late. It was a long day and we had to leave Lily alone a couple of times already, so her willingness to stay after was a big help. We received pictures of our little girl and she was easy to communicate with.”

“Took good care of our fur babies! Glad she was able to come take care of them at our house while we were on vacation. She kept the house tidy and was responsive to our messages. Also sent us pictures of them so we felt better about leaving them. She also made a sketch of them that we love!! :)”

“Miranda was excellent with our senior dog and took great care of him. She made sure he was well fed, got his potty breaks, and had plenty of time for his naps. She kept us updated and sent photos while we were gone. I would highly recommend Miranda and her outstanding care.”

“Jennifer was great. I had to find a sitter on very late notice and she was able to accommodate. My dog took to her right away (which is atypical... There's usually at least a few barks and being skittish). She sent me pictures and had no issues at all!”

“She was wonderful with my puppy! He’s recently adopted so we were working on separation anxiety and first dog parent concerns. Claire was so helpful and patient.”

“Kate went above and beyond to ensure the comfort and safety of my four dogs during a 5 day vacation. I would recommend her to anyone that really wants care and attention for their pups. Kate is, without a doubt, the best rover sitter I’ve used.”

“Shelby is an amazing dog sitter! She took great care of our dog while we were away for a week. This was our first time using Rover and Shelby single handedly exceeded our expectations! She was very attentive to Hazel’s every need. I know Hazel had a great week filled with lots of fun outdoors on walks or playing fetch with her frisbee. She even took it upon herself to bring her own treats and toys that she gave to hazel. We will definitely be using Shelby in the future!”

“Sent pictures and cared for our sweet girl”

“Rebecca helped us out in a pinch. Our 9 month old high energy puppy hadn’t been prepared, but he did great under her care and we had huge relief. Our puppy was better behaved when we returned! Rebecca helped train and him and gave him lots of energy outlets.”

“Ioana is wonderful! She kept me updated on my dogs well being, as well as sending me pictures too. I would more than happily say that you should consider her sitting for your pet!!!”

“Lisa was great! She was courteous, helpful, and responsive. She was attentive to Eva's schedule and respectful and clean during her stay at my place. I look forward to having Lisa look after Eva in the near future.”

“Danni has regularly taken care of my 7 lbs. cat and 80 lbs. German Shepherd. She's welcomed by both of my pets, and they love seeing her. Danni takes great care of them and takes her time to play with them so they aren't lonely. Very prompt, conscientious, and loving would be the top three traits I would say describes Danni's care for my pets. Highly recommended.”

About: Longtime pet lover and owner. Volunteer dog walker and cage cleaner at SICSA. Volunteer animal caregiver at Aullwood Farm. I will take good care of your pet. I have a fenced yard and plenty of time to spend with your animal. I walk the dogs in my care daily at State Farm Park near my house or someplace close to yours. They are kept secure on a short leash at all times. I am recently retired as a bus driver for the RTA. I enjoy reading, making art, furniture refinishing and all outdoor activities. I can involve your pet in life enrichment activities. And I can safely transport your animal as needed. I now have certification as a Professional Pet-Sitter Dog-Walker (CPS-DW). Let me know if I can take your dog to obedience class as well. If you would like to scroll through my photos, I try to include a picture of all my animal customers. I enjoy taking photos that capture their unique personalities and the interesting things that they do. Mostly, they make me smile. If necessary, I can bring my services to you. Or, your pet can come to me. In your residence I will respect your home and property and follow all your directions as to your animal's care. At my residence I can crate your animal if they need respite. They can hang out with me in the house, on my sofa, or even in my bed! I will involve them in my daily activities and provide plenty of attention and reassurance. In addition, I love cats and all other animals. I am not averse to new experiences. If you have a bird, rabbit, chicken, turtle, hamster, lizard, snake (etc., etc.) that needs care, I'm your man!

“Megan was friendly, professional and punctual. She stayed in contact while I was away (which helped to work through some unforseen issues) and sent pictures and videos of my cat while she house sitted. She also seems to be some kind of cat whisperer since my cat is not friendly with many people but seemed to take to her immediately. She also helped me navigate the Rover site for booking what I wanted and planned ahead to avoid letting my cat out into a storm (I was out of town and unaware of the situation). I would highly recommend Megan for your pet sitting needs.”

“Alliyah was absolutely amazing with my boys and sent me so many pictures and videos. I will definitely be using her again!!”

“Britt shows our dogs the exact love and attention that we do! I know they feel safe and loved when she’s with them given their excitement when she walks in the door, which makes leaving them much easier! She checks in often, and we always come home to a clean house and happy dogs!”

“My sister does a great job when she's over to dogsit my German Shepherd, Bear. He's super needy and requires a lot of attention, but she has no problem wearing him out. She also cat sits for my wife and I and does a wonderful job making sure they're well taken care of. Bear absolutely loves her and often tries to go home with her afterwards.”
