Sydney is a wonderful dog sitter. Her family is delightful. Sydney kept us informed without being intrusive. She took great care of our teacup Yorkie, and sent a daily photo with a short update.

Sydney was very sweet, but I would have liked more communication from her. There was also evidence that my dog’s harness and e-collar were left on him the entire week he was there, (chafing and redness, severely indented fur, Hank’s reaction to taking them off) but I can’t confirm this, as the ONLY picture I got was on day 2 (where he was wearing both still) out of 7. (With past Rovers, we’ve received no less than 2 pictures/updates a day.) While I did not specifically request this, I feel it’s a pretty basic care task that a pet parent would be aware of. Honestly, I hesitated a lot to write this review, as she was nice and seemed to be trying, but ultimately I just think she has a lot on her plate right now with her own family and pets, and we would probably not book with her again.
