House Sitting in Melbourne

“This is our second stay with Allie and we always love having her! We had a long trip out of state this time and it was nice to be able to leave our pups and home to someone we can trust. She’s a great communicator, polite, considerate, and great with our dogs. We’ll keep having her back as long as she’ll have us!”

“We recently entrusted our beloved Pomeranian, Bear, to Sean for the second time, and once again, we couldn't be more pleased with his exceptional service. Sean cared for Bear and our home for a full 10 days, and his attention to detail and level of care were truly impressive. From the moment Sean arrived, it was evident that Bear was in capable hands. Sean's dedication to ensuring Bear's well-being and happiness was unwavering, and it's no surprise that he is consistently in high demand. One aspect of Sean's service that particularly stood out to us was his excellent communication. Throughout Bear's stay, Sean kept us updated with regular messages and sent us pictures, which provided us with peace of mind and reassurance. Additionally, we had several packages delivered during our absence, and Sean, upon our request opened them and keep us informed. As senior pet owners, it's crucial for us to entrust Bear to someone we can rely on completely, and without a doubt, Sean has proven himself to be that person. We have absolute confidence in his abilities as a pet sitter, and we highly recommend him to anyone seeking top-tier care for their furry companions. Thank you, Sean, for your exceptional service and for providing Bear with such a wonderful experience. We look forward to booking with you again in the future.”

About: I have experience caring for both puppies and adult dogs, including dogs with disabilities, cats, bunnies, hamsters, birds, fish, turtles, a pig and a squirrel. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, administering basic care, providing companionship, and monitoring their overall well-being. I am comfortable adapting to different temperaments, energy levels, and mobility requirements, ensuring each animal receives patient, attentive, and compassionate care. Through this experience, I have developed strong skills in handling animals safely, recognizing their needs, and creating a positive and supportive environment for them. I am currently unemployed, but I am looking for a part time job. As of now I am available Monday through Sunday. When I find a part time job, I will update my availability! When caring for pets in their own homes, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and established routines. I carefully follow all owner instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and household rules. I ensure doors, gates, and windows remain secure to prevent pets from escaping, keep potentially harmful items out of reach, and monitor pets for any signs of illness, stress, or unusual behavior. I provide plenty of attention, companionship, and enrichment while maintaining a clean and safe environment. My goal is to help pets feel comfortable and cared for while giving owners peace of mind that their animals and home are being treated with respect and responsibility.

“Alex is a fantastic pet sitter. The instructions for my senior cat can be a bit complicated - Alex took care of her and our golden retriever so well. Highly recommend. She left our house the way we left it, was very communicative, and trustworthy person.”

About: I have dog sitted for close friends and work colleagues during graduate school. I am still new to dog sitting but I take direction very well and I am willing to learn new things and meet new people! I am currently a pharmacy resident and work mainly during the weekdays from 7am-5pm and work every other weekend starting this upcoming July. My availability for June is open during the afternoons and most early morning for weekdays and open on weekends! I make a point to follow instructions to a T, and if there are opportunities to go above and beyond, I will do so. If dog sitting, I make sure to give the utmost attention to your pet while also meeting your expectations. As for house sitting, I like to treat a home as if it were my own: tidy and organized.

“We couldn’t be happier with the amazing care Celeste provided for Jack, Tekken, and Princess Buttercup! She went above and beyond in every way. Throughout the weekend, she kept us updated with photos and messages, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. Celeste was professional, attentive, and clearly treated our pets as if they were her own. Jack, Tekken, and Princess Buttercup absolutely loved her, and we could tell they were comfortable and well loved the entire time. We highly recommend Celeste to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and top-notch pet sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Lux was an incredible sitter for our three babies. He was very communicative the entire time we were away, which was huge for me, and exceeded all other expectations as well. I can’t recommend him enough!”

About: I've had pet since my earliest memories. On top of caring for pets of my own, including cats, dogs, reptiles, arachnids, and more, I also fostered animals in southern Indiana for 5+ years. Now that I'm in the Cincinnati area I want to find a way to help animals again so I joined Rover! I currently work as a contractor for a delivery company so I choose my own hours, this way I have time to fit in the furry friends. I can come any time, day or night! When caring for pets in someones home I always make sure to have a list of things the pet parents want to make sure is done. I also make sure all cabinets and doors are secure before leaving a room, this way pets can't get into anything they shouldn't. When outside with the pups, I always make sure to keep them on the outside away from the road when walking on sidewalks.

“Levi was great! My dog, Bella seemed to warm up to him immediately during our meet and greet which helped ease my anxiety as I was leaving the country for 10 days! He was great with communication and I will definitely use Levi again!”

About: I've been around dogs since I can remember. I have always had a family dog around and have dog sat for several families throughout high school and college. I have only owned smaller dogs, but have plenty of experience dog sitting larger dogs. I currently have a miniature dachshund! I currently work from 8am-4pm on weekdays. However, I am available in the evenings (after 5:00) and weekends to walk, play, stay with, or board your furry friend! After May 22nd I will be available all day during the weekdays and weekends! I am a very energetic, young, and active person that's able to give your pet all the attention, love, and walks they need! If they happen to stay with me, I have a small fenced in yard and live near plenty of walking paths so they can get their energy out.
