House Sitting River Bend

“Mallory is a great sitter! She gave me lots of updates and photos during the stay. The dogs were really happy to have her! Definitely would recommend!”

“Fatima was amazing to work with. I booked her on short notice before the holiday when my original plans fell through. She offered and made it a priority to come do a meet & greet on days notice. I’m always a little nervous when using a new sitter especially when they stay at mine, but my mind was at ease immediately when I met her. I could tell she has a big heart and really cares for animals. She followed all instructions and she went above and beyond spending time with Diesel doing his favorite activities (walks, playing fetch, swimming, etc.). She was incredibly communicative and sent a lot of pictures and videos which was much appreciated. As a former Rover sitter and a frequent user of Rover’s services, I can confidently say that Fatima is one of the best sitters I’ve come across. I will definitely be using her in the future and have already recommended her to others looking for sitters. Thank you Fatima!!!”

“Emily was great at communicating with us the entire stay, and we could tell from all her updates and pictures that our pups loved having her around. Our flight ended up getting delayed because of the blizzard rolling through Wisconsin this past weekend, and Emily was able to help make sure our pups were let out and fed while we figured out how to get back to Milwaukee. I would absolutely recommend Emily to anyone else looking for expert and friendly care for their pups on Rover. Thank you again!”

“Keisha took such great care of our two French bulldogs that are not exactly the easiest. She also did a great job trouble shooting some unanticipated situations like transportation issues and getting locked out — we will 100% use her again.”

Brock P.

“Brooklyn was able to help me out last minute and was great. She paid a lot of attention to my dogs and they really liked her. She communicated well and was fully invested in making sure my dogs were well-taken care of while I was gone.”

Gina M.

“To us, Jenn is professional, responsive, attentive, and a great communicator. For our fur baby, she is warm and caring. We are repeat clients and have strong piece of mind working with her. Thank you, Jenn!”

Kimberly S.

“Samantha did a wonderful job during an overnight say with my Sasha. She came to meet Sasha beforehand and get a quick tour of the house and rundown of Sasha's schedule. During her stay, she sent lots of pictures and updates. She also left my home cleaner than when I had left! I am extremely appreciative of Samantha's care that she put towards watching my fur baby.”

Alyssa T.

“Lexi was great with my particular and somewhat shy senior dog. We planned drop-ins prior to the full weekend, which worked great for Lexi and my Coco to get to know each other a little. Lexi is very responsive and gave updates. I will feel more comfortable taking trips and time away with Lexi caring for my girl!”

Mary M.

“Stephen and Amelie provided exemplary care for our dogs, Cameron and Colby. Their kindness, coupled with their commitment to regular exercise and clear communication, put us completely at ease. They frequently updated us with photos and videos, and their prompt responses to our questions were much appreciated. In addition to taking great care of our dogs, they kept our house in perfect condition. We wholeheartedly recommend Stephen and Amelie to anyone needing reliable and loving pet sitters. We can't thank them enough for their top-notch service!”

Elliott R.

“Maiah did a terrific job taking care of my dog. She gave us daily updates and photos, left the house clean and even stayed with my dog so she didn’t get lonely! Amazing!”

Will S.

“Wow! What can I say? Margaret exceeded every expectation I had for Uecker’s care today! As a new puppy mom who’s only had him for three weeks, leaving him with someone for the first time was a little nerve-wracking. But Margaret made me feel completely at ease. She didn’t just watch him—she played with him, loved on him, reinforced the commands we’ve been working on, and treated him like he was her own. The best part? Walking through the door and finding Uecker snuggled up right next to her. My heart absolutely melted. It was obvious he felt safe, loved, and completely comfortable. I truly couldn’t be happier with the care Margaret provided. Book her before I do, because with my busy schedule, I’ll definitely be calling her again! Thank you so much, Margaret. Uecker already adores you, and so do I!”

“Scott really helped us out with a week of drop-in visits for our two dogs, one of which is rather unpleasant with strangers. He also agreed to oversee our coop of chickens which was very helpful. Scott was accomodating and generally a good communicator, and the pups seemed to like him. I think he did a fine job. We would definitely work with Scott again.”

About: I’m a cat-focused pet sitter who is comfortable caring for cats with different personalities, including shy or nervous cats who need patience and space to warm up. I pay close attention to each cat’s normal routine and behavior. During visits, I can handle feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, enrichment, and lots of companionship. I know how important it is for cat parents to feel updated, so I send photo updates after every visit. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:30am to 4:00pm, so cat care fits best into my schedule in the early mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m available before work for quick morning check-ins, and after 4:00pm I have plenty of time for visits, feeding, playtime, and care. On weekends, I have more flexibility and can provide longer visits or extended care if needed. Since I only provide care in my client’s home, I focus on keeping your cats comfortable in their own familiar environment and maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, litter box care, and any specific rules for the home or cat. I make sure doors are secured, water is fresh, and cats are safe and during visits.

“We feel so incredibly lucky to have found Justine! She watched our 10 month old puppy, Rumi, for the weekend and truly went above and beyond. Leaving your pup and your home in someone else's hands can be stressful, but Justine gave us total peace of mind - we knew right away he was in the best hands! She kept us connected the entire time with constant updates and photos. Rumi even got to meet her family briefly, and I can tell he absolutely loved it, especially hanging out with her son! To top it off, when Rumi had a minor issue with an itchy ear, Justine stepped right in with excellent preventative care, keeping him comfortable until we could get him to the vet on Monday. Rumi clearly had a fantastic weekend. We couldn't ask for a more trustworthy, communicative, and caring sitter - highly recommended!”

“Emily is incredible with my senior dog, Bernie. She's gentle and patient and is understanding of the unfortunate accident or 2 requiring clean up on some visits. I have peace of mind knowing she will be there for Bernie!”

Kim A.

“We came home to 4 happy healthy fur babies from our week long vacation. Lots of photos and check ins were sent to ease our mind. Our bed sheets were washed and bed re-made, house stayed clean. There is no doubt I will use Pat again. AMAZING!!”

Jen M.

“Audrey took excellent care of my babies so I could have a mini getaway, she made my boys happy and feel loved.”

Kelly S.

“Adrianne is amazing! She was communicative, asked thoughtful questions during the meet and greet, and ensured meds were delivered to a picky eater. We hope to have her back for future vacations!”

Beth K.

“Melissa was a HUGE help, stepping in over the holidays for a long house-sitting service when a previous sitter had to cancel last-minute. She is personable and communicative, shared lots updates during the stay, and took good care of our house. Our dog and cat were in great hands, and it felt wonderful to come home to relaxed happy pets. Happy to recommend!”

Marcella M.

“Maya was AWESOME! We needed a last minute Rover to stay at our house and watch our 2 pups for a night and she was such a good fit for the job. Super communicative & sweet — we always received the cutest pupdates. Our dogs were 100% in great hands & we’ll definitely be booking with Maya in the future! 😊”
