Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced, Active Caregivers
James and I are an energetic couple who travel too much to have our own pets, so we’re here to share yours! We both have extensive experience pet sitting across multiple cities and three continents. Abbey’s from Ohio and James is from Melbourne, Australia. We spent the last year (06/2025-09/2026) living in Europe and are excited to resume petsitting now that we are back stateside. Together, we work from home and therefore have plenty of time to care for low and high-need pets alike.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
We are an attentive, clean, non-smoking couple. For home stays, we require at least a full-sized bed (no trundle beds, blow up mattresses, or bunk beds). We do not allow dogs in the bed, but will make your pet very comfortable in their pet bed and are happy to have them in the bedroom.
Ratings and reviews
Abbey and James house sat for us and watched our dog and cat while we were on a week long vacation. We reached out last minute after our previous plans fell through and Abbey and James were able to accommodate us. They provided a ton of updates and pictures of our pets, which was great and made us feel so much better, especially with our first time using Rover. They walked our dog several times a day, which she loved, and sent plenty of photos of her adventures. They also left our home very clean and organized and washed our guest room sheets before they left. We are so happy we chose Abbey and James to house sit for us while we were gone! They made us feel so comfortable and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our pets were in great hands! We will definitely reach out to Abbey and James for pet sitting in the future!
This is the second time Abbey has watched our dog Rubi, and Rubi loved her just as much the second time! We have great peace of mind travelling knowing that Abbey is taking wonderful care of our pet as well as our home (and many plants) while we are away.
We were nervous to leave our rescue for the first time, but Abbey and James immediately put us at ease! Rubi usually takes time to warm up to new people, but she took to them immediately, and kept looking for them after they left. They kept us updated with pictures and texts all week and kept consistency with her ongoing training. They took great care of our house and plants as well. Would 100% recommend!
Abbey & James sat for me at my home while on a week long trip out of the country. They took amazing care of my dog Zoey and home. They provided lots of updates and took Zoey on many adventures. She liked them so much she was looking for them in the guest room the day after I returned. I will happily have them sit again in the future.
Abbey and James could not have been more amazing with Winston. They treated him like their own dog! I could tell they gave him so much love and stimulation. They easily followed my instructions, took him on adventures, and made him feel at ease in moments when he gets anxious. They sent multiple pictures and updates a day, and I didn’t worry the entire time I was away. I would ask them to watch Winston any time. Thanks for everything Abbey and James!
Abbey and James cared for our little female dog Bug at our house while we were away for 4 days. They are great! They were very sweet and loving to Bug, sent us many updates. We could tell Bug was happy and comfortable with them. They were very responsible, trustworthy and left our house super clean. We will use them again for sure!
