Don't Allow her in your house!!! Just as I was about to my destination, our original sitter called and said that her father had a heart attack and she needed to get to Oshkosh. She had already arranged to have to other Rover dog sitter friends go to take care of Bella because she was having trouble getting ahold of me and also we had discussed previously that I really had no other options for sitting….hence why I booked her quite a bit ahead of time. I talked to the recommended Rover sitter and she and her boyfriend already had dog commitments for the weekend but they offered to do several stop ins to meet her needs. I told her to let me call Rover and put in emergency request and get back to her. Rover guy could not commit to getting anyone for the night (and never did that night) so I enlisted them to come in. They came in three times. Dani attempted to blame all of the missing items on them.. other than he goofy story about my hair color……but cameras don’t lie (and they were not hidden). We have cameras due to a small business we have in our home and our insurance premiums are better with them. Dani also responded that we should have had a meet and greet to prevent this mismatch…lol how could we have done that when it was an unplanned emergency. Notes from the 16 hours of Dani “dog sitting”: Early afternoon, Saturday, Dani responded to stay request. She asked if I needed the dates as requested. I told her yes. This is all in app. She replied that she could be there between 5 and 6 which was perfect. Jennifer in rover confirmed because my app wouldn’t allow me to with no service. In app I sent her lock box info several times. I told her I tried calling and rover wouldn’t allow it through because I had a different phone… I had no service with mine. I told her that and asked for number. At 6:39 she asked when she needs to be there, even though all times had already been confirmed in app. She says she was waiting on lock box details which I had sent several times. She had no idea what a lock box was but was also late at this point and I asked her to get there asap. She said at 6:44pm she was waiting on an order so she would be to my house right after that. I accepted this because by this point, I had stopped the drop ins of the other rover sitters. I reminded her of need to keep diaper and onesie on so my pup doesn’t pee in the house. At 7:03 I once again asked for her actual number because my calls wouldn’t go through rover because I was using another person’s phone (mine did not have service where we were). She never did this. She again says she never got combo but I when I got home, I saw it went through the app several times. She couldn’t get lock box undone so I asked for her number once again. She figured lockbox out soon after this. She asked if Bella needed to go out and I said yes, that she had been alone since noon. She never did let her out until after nine… I have door monitors and cameras that captured this. I reminded her about need for diaper and she never did this the whole time she was there. She also gave meds at @ 8:45 and those should have been given right away. She stayed up until after 3:00 am as noted in camera notes… I could care less if she is a night owl, IF she took Bella out at right time, but then she never took her out until @ 10:00 am. She normally goes out at 6 and gets meds at 7 am. She was never given her AM meds. When she left the house, Bella was still undiapered and she left Door unlocked AND lock box with key wide open. She said (in app) that I rushed her. All I did was tell her we are arriving home a bit earlier than expected…which was late afternoon (we got home after 2:00 instead). I texted her in app around 10:30 am and said she can head out once she is walked, fed, medicated and diapered. She took her out a TOTAL of 10 minutes the entire 16 hours she was with Bella, so walking did not happen, she was fed but not medicated or diapered in the AM. Some things to note from the notes: 1. She rummaged through all cupboards and our things in back room and our upstairs bedroom (that was gated off). These are on camera. Off camera she used my hair dye to color her hair. She says in Rover app that her friend gave her exact same stuff and she used it here…. All lies. First of all, I bought 5 of them right before my trip. I used one and had 4 left. She hid the bottle in the bottom of one garbage, the directions in the bottom of another and the empty box back in the cupboard by the others. 2. On the Rover app I told her to fess up about other things as I was reporting this. She talked about a necklace she found that looked like her friends…craziness….I think she was going through my necklaces in our bedroom but none or none of importance are missing. 3. She drank 7 sodas and 4 waters while here for a total of 16 hours… a bit excessive….Especially for night time hours, but I wouldn’t have cared if it weren’t for all of this other stuff and she took some soda out of our cupboard and put in freezer to chill and exploded them in the freezer. I had to empty the entire freezer to clean and redo all ice trays. 4. She ate several things that were not on list of things for our original sitter….she also ate the things that were (other than a pizza). a. Some special order bars that were for a lady I work for and I had to reorder on Monday because she already paid for them and I value my employers. b. Some special shortbread cookies hidden in a snack cupboard for when we have kids over. c. ONE OF THE MOST CONCERNING THINGS WERE 2 ADULT CBD GUMMIES I HAD STASHED BELOW ALL OF OUR CHEESE IN CHEESE DRAWER. THESE ARE “PRESCRIBED” AS NO MORE THAN ¼ AT A TIME. SHE HAD 1 ¾ OF THEM , AS SHE CAN BE SEEN ON THE CAMERA. PLASTIC BAG WAS LEFT ON OUR COUNTER ALONG WITH HER OTHER MESS OF CRUMBS. WHO THE HECK, AS AN ADULT, EATS SOMETHING IN A PLASTIC BAG WITH NO LABEL…. PURE CRAZINESS. THIS MAY ACCOUNT FOR SOME OF THE STUMBLING AND SEARCHING FOR FOOD AS THIS MAY NOT HAVE EVEN WORE OFF BY MORNING. AGAIN, SHE BLAMED THIS ON THE OTHER ROVER PEOPLE THAT CAME IN BUT YET THEIR VIDEOS SHOW NO EVIDENCE EVER GOING NEAR OUR FRIDGE AND NEVER LEFT THE KITCHEN and BACK ROOM IN THEIR SHORT JAUNTS. I THINK SHE THOUGHT IF SHE GOT CAUGHT, SHE WAS GOING TO BLAME EVERYTHING ON THEM. d. When I left Bella had over 20 doses of Anxiety meds. I broke 5 large tabs into her dose right before I left this makes 20 and I had a couple of more in there. When I came home there were 8 left. She had to have stolen them and possibly over medicated Bella but if she had given her all of that, Bella would be dead. e. Bella did not need any anxiety meds as there weren’t any storms or fireworks and she gave her cough meds which were clearly written in notes for use as “only if coughing”… which she wasn’t. 5. Opened all of our back windows and air could be heard running outside of windows. Turned fan on air and it clearly said in notes not to. Our air had ceased when we got home as it froze over from fan use. 6. Bella had three large pee spots in house from during her undiapered time. I had to spend two hours steam cleaning carpets upon arrival home. 7. She knew when the cameras were running and knew they were there as they are not hidden. She can even be heard saying “oh another camera”. She can be heard in the dark during some video rummaging cupboards and the purse she carried around the entire time seemed to be her place for stashing things. 8. She was observed wearing my shoes in some video…just weird. 9. She took one of my coats off of back rack. 10. When we got home the kitchen floor was covered with crumbs and two cigarettes. I know she is a smoker as she can be seen lighting a cigarette in one of the videos by the back door. Still inside but did step out. 11. Dani calls my cameras “creepy” ….hmmmm…. I have NEVER had to review them before and have had plenty of great dog sitters over. I usually just erase videos after trips but these were obviously useful and what they are there for!!!!

Thanks so much for coming through for me last minute! I really appreciate it. Lola looks like she had lots of fun.
