House Sitting Rillito

About: I've been taking care of pets for neighbors and family friends for the past 4 years, and loved every second of it! I've been able to cuddle with puppies while watching a movie, wrestle with some teens pups and begrudgingly let them win, and I've taken calm walks around the backyard with a senior dog. I'm currently in school, so my day doesn't begin until 4 on weekdays, perfect for house sitting and sunset walks! On weekends, my schedule is completly free! I do have some Sunday morning commitments, as I work childcare for my church, but it has a flexible schedule for whatever you or your furry friend might need! I love to match the energy of pet and owner, so I can always provide the best experience. I'm able to lounge with some calm cats or play in the yard with some energetic puppies. I can take walks around your neighborhood, or go for drives if that's your pets vibe. In the end, if the pet is happy then so am I 😊

“Robert was wonderful! He was on time, very kind and took special care with our elderly and blind dachshund. She needs extra attention on walks and outside around our pool, he was very patient and understanding with this. He provided photos and detailed updates on how she was doing. Our house was spotless and our dog was calm and content when we arrived back home. We will be booking Rob for future dates.”

“Kylee D did a great job house and kitty sitting while we were out of town for a week. She was responsive and gave us lots of updates while we were gone. We would not hesitate to recommend her.”

Gail R.

“I had to go out of town at the last minute. A friend suggested Rover. Ander was available for a last minute stay. We met to see how Ander and Willy would be. I was very surprised at how comfortable Willy was. I am grateful for the care and attention he gave to Willy. I will happily be a repeat customer. I also appreciate that he only has one “family” of pets at a time. Thank you Ander for going out of your way to help us.”

“Elena was great! She was very communicative, and asked questions when she had questions. She was very good with my dog who can be guarded until he gets to know. She was patient and caring with him until he felt comfortable with her. I would definitely recommend her!”

Natalie C.

“Loved having Kaitlin in our home, we got multiple daily updates and our pups were very happy. We came home to a clean house and happy dogs Thank you so much Kaitlin!”

Caroline G.

“Tyler is always the kindest pal for our pup who hates being alone. She’s prompt and communicative and is great at getting Remy out for walks even on a very hot day. Thank you Tyler!”

Jacquelyn C.

“Tim and Kate couldn’t have been better. They stayed in touch with us throughout our vacation with pictures, daily reports, and some insightful questions. We came home to a tidy house and happy pets. Can’t recommend them more highly! Will definitely use them again.”

Nancy G.

“Excellent. Exceed all expectations. The Dogs loved her. Lots of pictures and status communicated to us. Left our house even better and cleaner then before. We completely recommend her. A true professional.”

Robert L.

“I can’t say enough good things about Sarah!! She was so professional and caring for our babies while we were on vacation! One of our pups very anxious and can be aggressive towards new people. She was so patient and skilled in letting him come to her in his own time. She provided us so many updates, pictures, and videos to keep our minds at ease!! She asked for instructions and followed everything to perfection!! I would use her for dog care over and over again!!! So glad we found her!!”

Stacy C.

“Jeanne was awesome! She stayed at our house with our two Australian Shepherds while we were away for a week. They took to her immediately! She sent pics and videos while we were gone and I could tell the dogs were thrilled to have her there. They were so happy and well taken care of. She was friendly and extremely considerate, the house looked as clean if not cleaner than we left it! I would use Jeanne again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her for dog sitting and home sitting.”

Laura D.

“I felt so safe leaving my home and kitty with Jamie. She was a great communicator, was patient with Harrison's character (he takes a few days to warm up to new people) and she left the house in great condition. I would invite her back anytime, and will!”

Caitlin N.

“Kristina did a great job with our GSD Max. She showed up early, cuddled and played with Max, sent photos, cleaned up after herself and went way beyond what she was asked to do. Most impressive. She's a keeper in my book. Will definitely use her again. dg”

Douglas G.

“Kenna did a great job taking care of our lab and staying over on our home. She did a wonderful job of communicating regularly and sending pics! We are very happy with her care and will definitely use Kenna again!”

Diane D.

“Allison is so sweet and I would absolutely use her again!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs of all kinds since I was 9 years old. My specialty is fragile seniors with special needs, meds, diets and gentle care. My three girls are not dogs but sweet babies who give us unconditional love and are treasured. We will welcome yours the same way and keep them safe <3 I work out of my home office so this gives me the ability to supervise your pet. They can join mine in my office, we have plenty of comfy spots. I give frequent breaks, time for treats, cuddles and can take them on short walks to our little park (if desired) I also have a pet stroller. I have a fenced in yard with critter fencing and a gate guard. A large turf area perfect for zoomies! My two friendly little malti-pos and a Chinese Crested will be their play pals. They are low key and gentle.

“We couldn’t be happier with our experience! She did an amazing job watching our dogs and went above and beyond by also taking care of the house and watering all of our plants. She was incredibly responsible, reliable, and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs were happy and well cared for, and everything at home looked perfect when we returned. We will absolutely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”

About: I’ve been caring for and pet sitting animals for as long as I can remember! I absolutely love and adore animals and honestly prefer them to people 😉. As a teacher on summer break, I’ve got lots of time on my hands to give your fur babies all the love and care they deserve. I have experience working in animal shelters as well as fostering dogs. I am a dog mama of 2 adopted Shar-Peis and am a cat mom as well. Unfortunately, they have lots of health issues therefore I have lots of experience administering oral medications, ear creams, eye creams…you name it! I also have experience taking care of senior and young pups. Though challenging, they deserve all the patience and love in the world. I am looking forward to getting to know you and provide excellent care for your baby! I’m a 5th grade teacher on summer break! I have a wide open schedule for the month of July. I have availability to do drop ins as well as stay the night with your pups while you enjoy summer vacations. I have a large backyard with an 8ft tall brick privacy fence that would be nearly impossible for your fur baby to escape. I will also keep tabs on them at all times to ensure their safety. When in others’ homes, I keep an eye on pets and spend time with them like they’re my own.

“Emily was fantastic! A wonderful house guest who took great care of my Sadie. I got photo updates every day and came back to a clean house. I couldn’t ask for more!”
