Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this sitter based on our experience. I felt confident booking them because of their excellent Rover reviews. We specifically chose in-home house sitting—not drop-in visits—because one of our dogs is reactive and the other one is anxious, we wanted someone with our dogs for most of the day while we traveled internationally. We booked 4 drop-in visits before our trip, to ensure the dogs did ok with the sitter. And the sitter confirmed they would be with the dogs except for short periods of time. • Fourth of July: Before the stay, I discussed my concerns about fireworks, I took my dogs to the veterinarian for anti-anxiety medication just in case, and specifically chose house sitting so someone would be with them that evening. Around 5:00 p.m., I texted to ask how they were handling the fireworks and whether they needed their medication. The sitter replied that they were doing well. After checking my security cameras, I discovered they had actually left the house around 1:45 p.m. When I asked about it, she said she had gone to a family event and would be back "in a couple of hours." She didn't return until approximately 10:15 p.m., leaving my dogs crated for over 8 hours. During that time they missed dinner, had no potty break, and my emergency contact had to leave her own pet sitting job to let them out, give them water, feed them & give meds to my anxious dog. • Pattern of extended absences: After reviewing my security camera footage, I discovered the sitter had also been away from my home for an extended period of time on July 3. These extended absences were inconsistent with what we had discussed, as I had clearly communicated that only short (under a few hours) absences were acceptable during a house-sitting booking. My dogs are both used to having us home all day with them. • End of the booking: 24 hours before the booking was supposed to end, the sitter informed me that their husband was being admitted to the hospital. I sincerely hope he is okay, and I understand that emergencies happen. However, before anyone had confirmed they could take over my dogs' care, she packed her belongings and left while I was still out of the country. I asked what her plan was, thinking maybe she would act as a drop in, she stated she would not be returning. My daughter ultimately had to cancel her weekend plans and drive six hours to my home. By the time she arrived, my dogs had been crated for 10 hours, had accidents in their crates, and were extremely anxious. As a much smaller point compared to the concerns above, I received only two photos and one video during the entire 8-day stay, and updates generally came only when I initiated contact, despite discussing regular updates before the stay. I hope sharing my experience helps other pet owners make an informed decision when choosing care for their pets.

Fawn was so amazing with our pets!! It was a last minute trip and they were so accommodating. We received pictures and updates and their responsiveness and care made a spur of the moment trip so much less stressful. We will definitely be booking again.
