Top rated Mikado house sitters
About: I had a Black Lab for 14 wonderful years and a Lhaso Apso mix for 13 years. Have had a succession of felines. Retired, so no work schedule obligations. We are new to Rover but we have extensive pet/housesit (2010-present) testimonials on external sites that we will provide. From 1 week to 10 mth lengths. Dennis and I are retired , we have all the time in the world. We are available weekends, weekdays, and holidays. Presently have no other obligations or major trips planned. For housesitting, we simply follow instructions given by the pet parents. We will not deviate from them. We always keep the owners updated with frequent photos. We have had sitters in our home, so we know the concerns at both ends.

Wendy & Dennis P.
“I'm so glad I found Dennis & Wendy to house sit while I was away over Christmas. I was gone for almost 4 weeks and felt very comfortable the whole time that our pets were being looked after. They treated them like their own, and weren't put off at all by the face that we had 4 cats, including two, 5-month old newly-adopted kittens, and a dog (who became very attached to Dennis!) I would highly recommend them to anyone who's looking to leave their home in the safe hands of reliable house sitters, and hope to have them back for future house-sits.”

“Amber did great with Liberty. She sent us photos and kept us updated throughout the weekend. We will definitely use her in the future.”
