Ratings and reviews
It’s taken 2 weeks to even address the disaster that took place in our home with this Rover sitter. He did amazing the first time we used him……which is why we rebooked a 2nd stay. My dog got sick 2 days into our trip, at which time Ben did reach out. We had left instructions with phone numbers, to call our vet in case of an emergency. No call was made. My dog had bloody diarrhea all over our wool carpets, which are now ruined!! We have 4 very large wool rugs and they are destroyed. Our vet kept our dog at the vet hospital for a day the day after our return, at which time he received IV fluids and antibiotics, as well as other meds for gastroenteritis. Our house was an absolute mess when we got home. Beds (yes PLURAL…..why two beds used is beyond me) were unmade with urine spots on our guest room bedspread, and prime bedroom decoration pillows. Food left out on the counters, which were filthy. I found a squirt gun in our guest bathtub….why in the world was there a squirt gun?? Was this sitter using it on my dog? Of course, no proof to answer that question. I could go on, but I won’t. Think twice if considering this dog sitter!!l
Ben is thoughtful, caring, and clearly loves animals. The house was kept neat and tidy. I could ask for nothing more from him and will use him again! The dogs had a blast from the pictures and videos he was nice enough to send.
Ben always does a nice job and I can tell all our animals love him
Ben B. cancelled a booking 2 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Ben was amazing with my Rikki!! He did a great job sending pictures and updates!! He left the house tidy and neat. Rikki was clearly a happy boy when we got home! Ben is an incredible young man!! Will definitely be using Ben in the future!
Ben does a great job and loves our dogs. I can tell he plays with them a lot.

Schedule
I will plan around your pet’s needs. Currently, I am doing Rover and I work part-time. I will spend the evenings and overnights in with your pet(s).
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I prefer written instructions on how you like your pet and home cared for and will follow your instructions. I’m glad to send you photos of your happy pet while away. I like to lounge on the couch with pets, will gladly take dogs for a walk, or play in the yard.
A typical day
I will be looking forward to at-home time with your pet(s). We can play inside and out or go for walks. Thanks for considering me to care for your pet!
