House Sitting in Melbourne

“Terrific experience with Grant again!”

“Tamara was fantastic with my two old pomeranians. She sent photos and kept in communications. I highly recommend and have booked again for the following weekend.”

“Alex was a gem! She cared for doggies perfectly and loved on them! She took amazing care of our home and our doggies. She is a wonderful sitter!!!”

“This was our first time using Rover! Kory was awesome in so many ways. She was completely reliable and went over and above to care for our sweet Mr. Oliver and our house! We will definitely be calling on Kory again!”

“Lillian watched out two dogs in our home and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She sent thoughtful updates and daily pictures and was always watching out for our girls. She took great care of our home too. Highly recommend Lillian as she is caring and can handle all kinds of dogs! (In our case, an active German Shepherd and an anxious Chihuahua!). Thank you Lillian!”

“Excellent care! The pets were happy and healthy and the house was in great shape when we got back from our 4-day trip. I would absolutely book again and recommend to a friend.”

“Victoria, did an overnight stay with our elder dog. Bella seem to be very happy and I was happy that we did not have to take an out of the house into an unfamiliar environment! We were very happy with the care she kept of our home and our dog. I would definitely recommend her!”

“Laura took great care of my kitties and the house while I was gone, including some outdoor plants. Everything was clean and orderly and my boyz were calm and greeted me at the door. We had discussed that she only needed to come by in the morning on the last day because I would be home in time for supper, but my flight was delayed significantly. She stepped right in so I didn’t have to worry about them while I dealt with getting home, and even watered the plants one last time. I would happily book Laura again!”

“Emily was fantastic! This was our 1st time leaving Theo with someone other than family and we were very nervous. Theo became best friends with Emily I know he enjoyed her staying with him very much. She was fantastic at communicating with us. I will definitely call Emily again to come stay with him. P.s I think he misses her 🙂”

“Bonnie and Ron are truly exceptional pet sitters and neighbors—warm, attentive, and genuinely devoted to the animals in their care. Their home is clean, welcoming, and feels like a second home for any pet. I completely trusted them with my senior pup, Charity (RIP), and they were always there when I needed a hand, especially in a pinch. As a fellow sitter, I can’t say enough about how much I value their support. Whether I’m fully booked or just need someone to check in, they’re always reliable, responsive, and willing to help. It’s rare to find people this trustworthy and kind. I recommend them without hesitation!”

“Absolutely amazing!! We went away for 3 nights to attend my sisters wedding & we’re apprehensive to leave our somewhat new rescue for the first time. We had nothing to worry about!! Lexie was amazing, from the minute we left we got frequent updates & pictures/videos from walks, or even just chilling at home. Mars was so happy & content & I felt relaxed knowing he was in great hands. The house was kept so clean & tidy too. We will have to go away again just so that Mars can spend even more time with his new bestie!”

“Madi was a fantastic sitter and did an absolutely perfect job watching our 6-month-old puppy! She was trustworthy, reliable, punctual, and was great with our little guy. He was completely relaxed and content when we got back home. We will definitely use Madi again the next time we need a sitter!”

“Demi was absolutely fabulous! She is very personable and keeps you in the loop with a play by play of your babies. We will definitely be booking her again. Most definitely recommend.”

“Ditto I everything I said in my last review. Kia is awesome! Took care of my baby, and put my mind at ease as I was traveling. I will be biking with her again and again!!!”

“We felt really good about Shayne from the moment we met her, and our little dog Zeke did too. He immediately wanted to be picked up and his tail wagged like crazy. We could tell she genuinely loves animals. Shayne took such good care of him while we were away, and made sure he had his special toy in his bed at night. He got lots of attention, and was his usual happy self when we got home. Shayne followed our instructions for Zeke, and our home was kept clean and tidy. We’re so happy we found her on Rover, and will definitely ask for her again, the next time we need a pet sitter for Zeke.”

“I can't say enough good things about Madison! She's not only reliable and punctual but also incredibly caring. My dog absolutely adores her, and I always come home to a happy and well-cared-for pet. Madison goes above and beyond, sending updates and photos, which really puts my mind at ease. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, Madison C. is the perfect choice”

“Mindy is the BEST!!! She went above and beyond; she cared for and loved my dog like her own, was great with communication, and accommodating. For the first time ever I came home to a happy, calm dog (not a frantic one) and a spotless clean home. Mindy truly made my vacation an actual vacation.”

“We couldn’t be more grateful to have found Reagan! From the moment we met, it was clear our dog was in kind and capable hands. Reagan treated our pup like family—sending regular updates, photos, and making sure all our instructions were followed perfectly. We came home to a happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for dog. It gave us such peace of mind knowing Reagan was providing her such loving care. We’ll definitely be booking again and highly recommend Reagan to anyone looking for reliable, attentive, and truly caring pet care.”

“As a pet owner who has had the pleasure of witnessing Samantha's skills firsthand, I can confidently speak to her outstanding abilities and unwavering dedication to the well-being of animals. Samantha's credentials as a certified Vet technician make her invaluable. Her extensive knowledge of animal health, behavior, and nutrition ensures that the pets under her care receive the best possible attention and support. Her professional training allows her to identify and address any potential health concerns promptly, giving pet owners like me peace of mind knowing our beloved companions are in expert hands. What truly sets Samantha apart is her natural love for animals. It is apparent from the moment you meet her that she has a profound affection for all creatures. Her warm and compassionate demeanor instantly puts pets at ease, allowing her to form genuine connections with them. This love for animals translates into exemplary care, ensuring that each pet receives the attention, affection, and exercise they need for their physical and emotional well-being. I must particularly highlight Samantha's exceptional skills in handling difficult or animal-aggressive dogs. My own dog, who was apprehensive and aggressive towards other animals, underwent a remarkable transformation under Samantha's care. She approached his behavioral challenges with patience, understanding, and expertise. Through consistent training and positive reinforcement, she helped my dog overcome his aggressive tendencies and become more sociable and well-mannered. Moreover, Samantha's dedication to her work goes beyond the call of duty. She ensures that every detail of pet care is meticulously attended to, from regular feeding and exercise to grooming and health monitoring. I have never encountered a pet caregiver who is as thorough and attentive as Samantha.”

“Lucas was the perfect first experience to have with Rover. He was very responsive with us and sent pictures of our dogs daily, which we appreciated! He kept our house clean and left it just as we left it. He also made sure that our dogs stayed within their daily routine. We highly recommend Lucas!!”
