House Sitting in Maiden Rock

“We have a reactive and shy dog, and because of this we have never left him with a sitter. We decided to give Rover a try and that is where we met Shylina. She did an amazing job. She took a shy dog that wanted nothing to do with her at the beginning, to a dog that wanted to cuddle with her in bed at night. We highly recommend Shylina. We will definitely use her again.”

“They had amazing communication and made me feel so comfortable while I was away from our critters. I would definitely recommend again and will be reaching out again the next time I need a sitter.”

“Breanca was wonderful to have in our home with our pup. She sent updates often! Would recommend to anyone in the future. We will definitely book with Breanca again!”

“Marissa was wonderful with Jackson! She kept me informed and shared pictures while we were away. She was also house sitting for us which made our vacation worry free! I will definitely use Marissa in the future.”

About: As a traveling house sitter, I've had the delight to house sit for families all over the world! I love to explore the areas where I'm staying. I delight in the history of an area, the local food scene and exploring on foot. I love to hike and welcome 4 legged hiking pals! I have been house sitting / pet sitting for friends starting in college. I spend summers with my family in MN and I love the that I'm able to travel Sept-May house sitting in much warmer climates since 2019. I always appreciate the trust shown to me by those leaving their animals and home in my care. I have used Trusted Housesitters for almost all my international sits (47 sits as of 5/28/25 all with 5-star reviews! I love what I do!) and would be happy to provide screenshots of my reviews. Hi! My name is Vikki and I'm a project manager who works in technology. I'm self employed and can work from anywhere using my computer and wi-fi. This has allowed me the flexibility to work from anywhere in the world. With my work schedule, I appreciate the routine it provides to me and the animals I care for. I love house sitting and the company of the pets. I like that I feel like a "local" as soon as I land at a new house sit! I love taking walks to explore where I am staying. All the better if there is a companion to come along! I am responsible, respectful, tidy and love to be around animals. I have learned that I am very adaptable. I can flex to the schedules of the animals helping them maintain the routine they are accustomed to and ease the transition while their humans are away. I've cared for several rescue animals, dogs, cats, turtles and chickens! I also grew up on a farm so am familiar with farm animals. I've been sitting consistently since 2019 and I'm grateful that all my hosts have invited me back and I’ve made repeat visits to several! I view house sitting as the serious job it is and value the trust placed in me to care for fur babies and homes.

“Emma is so friendly and our pups love when she is caring for them. We have used her a few times and feel so comfortable leaving our fur babies with her.”

“Monica was so good to us and our two dogs while we were away for 11 days and she stayed at our house. She took them for walks and gave us updates when we asked. When we came home the dogs were happy and well taken care-of! Our house was in fantastic shape as well. I would recommend her and ask her to watch the dogs again!”

“Lydia was very responsive and detailed in her replies. If she wasn’t sure of something, she would ask for clarification, which is what I prefer, instead of assuming the wrong answer. I would book her again when we go on vacation next time!”

About: I grew up with dogs and as an adult, I have had 3 cats. Sadly they have passed away from old age. In the future, I plan on having another pet, but in the meantime, I can love and care for other people's animals! Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and take care of their pets. I do work full-time Monday through Friday, but my schedule would be available on weekends and some weekdays after 5:30 PM. Holidays can be an option also. My main values are providing safety, trust and love to your pets with respect to the pet owners. When I am with your pet you will be worry free!

“Samantha was very professional and cared for our dogs like they were hers! She stayed at our home and it was in better shape than when we left! Will definitely be booking her for future visits!”

“Thank you Elizabeth for taking great care of our Jocko (about 17 years old). You were able to carry out his routines in/outside the house very well. So when we returned, I think he was a happy camper during our 20 day away vacation. This was the first time he would be left alone (without the usual many family members to overlap with care), so this local care giving plan with Rover.com worked out very well. I was reassured with photos and texts of visits as requested and Elizabeth provided the personal care for Jocko a senior cat and he is a happy cat.”

Maryellen M.

“Taylor was very accommodating to our very old toy Fox Terrier. She stayed in our home without issue. Our dog is on medication which was provided to her and she sent regular notifications to let us know how she was doing. We will hire her in the future without hesitation!”

Jessi S.

“Renee stayed in our home and cared for our dog, Marlie and our cat. She clearly loves animals and went over and beyond and took such good care of them. She did awesome sending daily updates and pictures. We are new to Rover and she asked great questions in advance so she could provide the best care. We had piece of mind during our long relaxing weekend getaway and highly recommend Renee!”
