House Sitting in Riverside

“Elizabeth was such a great joy to have with my four legged kids today. We have had a very rough time recently with my mother having issues who was our main sitter and our one dog dying. Thus, I am in need of day sitters last minute for awhile until we can get a routine down. I want to thank her so much for all the texts and pictures with updates. It has been a very anxious time for us, and she was such a wonderful savior. It was so nice to know someone was with the dogs during the storms. She was so polite last minute when I had to find help and came out to meet dogs to learn routine. We for sure will have her again, and it might even be this weekend or this week if she is available to day sit at our house.”

“Leesa was the best sitter for our two dogs that you could ever hope for! We went on a trip for my 60th birthday and she watched the house and dogs while we were gone. She took them on walks, played, snuggled, gave their meds and fed them (she even cooked some special chicken for them!) It was like they got a little vacation too! They might have been a bit mad that we didn't cook for them when we came back, but they got over it! She sent us lots of updates and pictures the whole trip. She even cleaned up and washed the linens and towels she used before she left! We Love Leesa!”

“Hailee coordinated very well with us and pivoted as our plans changed. She sent pics as she visited and shared any concerns that came up. We look forward to trying her and Manny again!”

“Liesa did a great job. She followed instructions and stayed a little after due to our concert going late. It was a long day and we had to leave Lily alone a couple of times already, so her willingness to stay after was a big help. We received pictures of our little girl and she was easy to communicate with.”

“Miranda was excellent with our senior dog and took great care of him. She made sure he was well fed, got his potty breaks, and had plenty of time for his naps. She kept us updated and sent photos while we were gone. I would highly recommend Miranda and her outstanding care.”

“Took good care of our fur babies! Glad she was able to come take care of them at our house while we were on vacation. She kept the house tidy and was responsive to our messages. Also sent us pictures of them so we felt better about leaving them. She also made a sketch of them that we love!! :)”

“Tarah is amazing. She cared for our fur baby during the 4th weekend and Miss. Remi gets very anxious with loud sounds but Tarah went above and beyond to keep her comfortable. When we first met Tarah she was very personable and Remi went straight to her. She has excellent communication skills while keeping your pet. We highly recommend Tarah. We will definitely ask her to keep Remi again.”

“Shelby was so good with my pup! I was apprehensive about leaving him with someone new but Shelby went above and beyond and I will no doubt use her again to take care of him! She kept me updated, took him to play with her pups, and he was pooped when we returned! Highly recommend!”

“Kate went above and beyond to ensure the comfort and safety of my four dogs during a 5 day vacation. I would recommend her to anyone that really wants care and attention for their pups. Kate is, without a doubt, the best rover sitter I’ve used.”

“Rebecca helped us out in a pinch. Our 9 month old high energy puppy hadn’t been prepared, but he did great under her care and we had huge relief. Our puppy was better behaved when we returned! Rebecca helped train and him and gave him lots of energy outlets.”

“Sent pictures and cared for our sweet girl”

“Hayden was extremely communicative with us while we were away and was respectful of our home and left it cleaner than when we left. Our pups were happy to have a good person with them. We will definitely use Hayden again.”

“Ioana is wonderful! She kept me updated on my dogs well being, as well as sending me pictures too. I would more than happily say that you should consider her sitting for your pet!!!”

“Jami was wonderful with Finn and treated him like her own! She was very communicative and a perfect house guest. 10/10 would recommend. Thanks, Jami!”

About: Longtime pet lover and owner. Volunteer dog walker and cage cleaner at SICSA. Volunteer animal caregiver at Aullwood Farm. I will take good care of your pet. I have a fenced yard and plenty of time to spend with your animal. I walk the dogs in my care daily at State Farm Park near my house or someplace close to yours. They are kept secure on a short leash at all times. I am recently retired as a bus driver for the RTA. I enjoy reading, making art, furniture refinishing and all outdoor activities. I can involve your pet in life enrichment activities. And I can safely transport your animal as needed. I now have certification as a Professional Pet-Sitter Dog-Walker (CPS-DW). Let me know if I can take your dog to obedience class as well. If you would like to scroll through my photos, I try to include a picture of all my animal customers. I enjoy taking photos that capture their unique personalities and the interesting things that they do. Mostly, they make me smile. If necessary, I can bring my services to you. Or, your pet can come to me. In your residence I will respect your home and property and follow all your directions as to your animal's care. At my residence I can crate your animal if they need respite. They can hang out with me in the house, on my sofa, or even in my bed! I will involve them in my daily activities and provide plenty of attention and reassurance. In addition, I love cats and all other animals. I am not averse to new experiences. If you have a bird, rabbit, chicken, turtle, hamster, lizard, snake (etc., etc.) that needs care, I'm your man!

“Megan was friendly, professional and punctual. She stayed in contact while I was away (which helped to work through some unforseen issues) and sent pictures and videos of my cat while she house sitted. She also seems to be some kind of cat whisperer since my cat is not friendly with many people but seemed to take to her immediately. She also helped me navigate the Rover site for booking what I wanted and planned ahead to avoid letting my cat out into a storm (I was out of town and unaware of the situation). I would highly recommend Megan for your pet sitting needs.”

“Mary Beth did a great job with our dog Chloe. She was flexible and accommodating with our work schedule. Chloe seemed to love it there and didn't seem to want to leave. She found a new friend in Timmy. To Mary Beth, "Thank you for taking such good care of Chloe!" I highly recommend her as a dog sitter. We look forward to having her as a sitter again sometime soon.”

“Britt shows our dogs the exact love and attention that we do! I know they feel safe and loved when she’s with them given their excitement when she walks in the door, which makes leaving them much easier! She checks in often, and we always come home to a clean house and happy dogs!”

“Alliyah was absolutely amazing with my boys and sent me so many pictures and videos. I will definitely be using her again!!”

“My daughter does a wonderful job caring for the pups when my husband and I are either working or vacationing! It's such a relief knowing she's there to keep our boys company. I'm very impressed with how quickly she trained our Rottweiler to swim and get himself in the tub for a bath afterwards! She's always been great with dogs and puppies alike and has a big heart for all of them.”
