Top rated Ridgeside house sitters

“JaNiya is a phenomenal housesitter, especially if you have shy animals (but *any* animal would love her!). We have two skittish greyhounds and a very shy adopted cat. Within one day, our cat was sitting in JaNiya’s lap, and our dogs were relaxed and happy. I couldn’t believe it! She has such a calm, tender presence, and you can tell she adores animals. She’s even studying to be a veterinarian! Do not pass her up! She’s the only housesitter we’ll use from now on!”


“We cannot say enough positive things about Wanda! She was so good with Jojo and Bella. She walked them twice a day and gave them so much love. We received pictures and texts about their day. We would highly recommend Wanda!”


“Hope did a wonderful job as always taking care of our boy! It makes us feel so much more at ease knowing that our pup is in good hands when we are away and we can’t recommend her enough!”


“Lauren took great care of my babies and my house. She sent pictures every day and cleaned before she left. She definitely left the house cleaner than when she arrived. Highly recommend!”


“Oh my gosh being new to the area - I was so nervous about finding someone to trust with my fur babies who are seniors with different medicines and Trey was amazing. He diligently took care of all their needs, played with them, sent photos and videos , asked all the right questions...we are so thrilled to have him!!!”


“I wish I could leave more than five stars; we are so happy with our experience with Carly! From daily pictures and status updates, to coming home to a happy pup and a clean house, Carly did an outstanding job and gave us so much peace of mind while we were on our trip. Thank you, Carly!”


“Huntter was AMAZING!! He was so thoughtful with each of our girls, giving all the attention my Jack Russell needed while also respecting the space of my shy Foxhound. By the end of the stay, both my girls were in love with him even getting the zoomies when he would return to the house. Thank you for making our girls feel safe and loved while we were away!”


“Bobi was the best sitter I’ve had in the 5 years I’ve had Honey. He was able to kindly accommodate a last minute scheduling request to stay at my house with my dog. Able to walk her daily for the long walks she requires, I came home to a happy, tired dog after 5 days of being away. That’s a first. Usually sitters can’t keep up with her physical demands. He sent me just the right amount of photos and updates. Not too much to where I would have been reminded how much I missed her, but enough to make me feel like she was getting the care and love she needs. He’s a great communicator. Most of all, his calm, kind energy is such a lovely experience for what I would suspect most animals attune to. It was clear how much she loved and appreciated him. When he came to drop off the keys, my normally very hyper dog calmly laid next to him with his hand on her back. The isn't normal for her to be quite so cuddly. Her behavior was the rave review that made my heart sing. If I need a sitter again, I will not hesitate to book Bobi. He also left the house as immaculate as it was when he got here. Thank you!!!”


“Chas was the absolute best!!! She took care of four pets that all can be shy but they had no problems with warming up quickly! She gave lots of positive updates throughout our long trip and we were able to fully relax! Cannot recommend her enough!”


“Amanda is fantastic! She sent messages and pictures everyday and we could tell our babies were well cared for and loved! We will be using Amanda every time we go out of town from this point on. Our house was spotless when we got home and she went above and beyond to take care of everything for us. We felt very at ease knowing she was here which made our vacation even more relaxing, and we are so thankful for her!”


“Sarah was great sending us lots of pictures while away! The dogs seemed like they had a great time while we were away and no signs of any stress. Would definitely use Sarah again!”


“I’m so glad I found Justin, he is the best and I have peace of mind whenever I have to leave my baby behind when traveling. My baby is a GSD and Justin does an incredible job keeping him safe, happy, and going on lots of adventures. Justin’s communication is top notch h and he really goes above and beyond.”


About: I have been around animals since I was born and have found my passion and purpose in caring for them. Grew up with 2 parrots, a dog and a rabbit. Started to volunteer in animal shelters in high school and haven’t stopped since. I have 3 pets of my own, 2 cats and a dog, and love them more than anything. I have also been fostering for a few shelters since 2019, and have fostered over 100 pets of the years. My fosters have been underage and sick kittens, adult cats, dogs with behavioral concerns and puppies. I have experience administering oral medication(liquid and tabs/caps) to dogs, cats, kittens and puppies. I also have experience administering subcutaneous injections and fluids. I treat every pet in my care as my own and tend to them with love and care. Let me spoil your pets while you are away. I work full-time 9-5 but I work remotely which allows me to have the flexibility needed to attentively tend to the pets in my care. I always walk dogs on a leash and I am alert to surroundings to ensure maximum safety. In the home I observe pets and monitor their behavior to be able to spot any health concerns as soon as possible.

“Gillian was AMAZING! She checked in with me and sent pictures everyday. She followed my MANY instructions to a “T”. Already booked her for the next trip! She watched my Great Dane and 2 cats in my home.”


“Danielle did an amazing job with my two babies while I was away. I was able to leave them in her experienced care, and she helped ease my stress while I was away about them getting the best care possible. She was very attentive, took them on walks, and even sent multiple updates throughout the day. She kept me in the loop of what was happening throughout the time she was here, and will definitely be booking with her again when I cannot travel with them!”


“Brinley was a fantastic sitter for my pup! She provided excellent communication, sending multiple pictures and it was very evident how happy and relaxed he was in her care. Knowing that my buddy was in good hands was a huge stress relief. I will definitely book her again in the future!”


“Eric was completely professional and super duper communicative. I was SO worried to leave my baby for 5 days since he has been sick, has knee issues, you name it. Eric reviewed instructions, kept me posted at every turn yet also allowed me to enjoy my time away without worrying. The only reason I wouldn't recommend is that I want him all to myself! Quit your searching, Eric is your guy.”


“Cayla was amazing with our girls and we’re so thankful to have our first time using rover be stress free. She was wonderful with timing, sending pictures and videos and giving the girls love! We felt comfortable knowing our dogs were safe at home with her and will be looking to rebook for our next vacation. Thank you again, Cayla!”


“JD not only took great care of my dog for 11 day he went the extra mile taking him on at least one, sometimes two walks a day. He also took great care of my home and contacted me regularly. I would give him 10 stars if I could!”


“Ellie was fantastic and the dogs took to her immediately. She watched them for 5 days and sent me updates with pictures several times a day. I came back to a clean house and happy pups. It was such a relief to know that they were comfortable at home and well taken care of while I was away. Highly recommend!”
