Top rated Sandwood house sitters
“Mariah was amazing!! She was so incredibly attentive, communicative and sweet with our pups. She sent several pictures and provided detailed updates since one of our pups is quite elderly. We could tell from the pictures she sent that our pups were happy, relaxed and well taken care of. She left our house just as we left it, and we will 100% use her again for any future Rover needs. Prior to the stay she was super responsive and easy to work with. Right away we loved her comforting presence and interaction with our pups.”
“Valarie was a great communicator and always checked in with updates and pictures while I was away. You can tell she genuinely enjoys watching after my pets. I have been very happy with her level of service and will continue to book with her. Thank you!”
“Rachel always makes me feel at ease when she’s with our dogs! She sends frequent updates and I really feel she loves them like her own. To top it off, we had flight issues that made it so we would be gone two extra nights and she was willing to go the extra mile and stay with them despite having her own life and responsibilities. We are just feeling so grateful for Rachel!”
“Sasha was the best sitter imaginable! She was always early and professional. I would leave rocket with her 100 times over. It made being away so much easier than I thought possible. 10 STARS!”
“This was my first time hiring a dog sitter, and Hadley was absolutely amazing! She kept me updated with plenty of messages and photos, which really put my mind at ease. Most importantly, she took such great care of my dog—I could tell he was happy and well-loved while I was away. I highly recommend Hadley to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful sitter!”
“Stephanie was communicative before and during our vacation, which we very much appreciate. She loves animals, was compassionate and attentive to our instructions. One of our dogs had tummy issues while we were away and poor Stephanie had to manage all-hours outings, but did so without complaint and with pity for Jack! We’d love to work with her again and recommend her confidently.”
“Kat house and dog sat (2 big and loud, but lazy dogs) for us for a week and was an absolute amazing sitter. She took great care of our house, and dogs, and went above and beyond without prompting. Anyone would be lucky to have Kat take care of their buddies! We will definitely use her again!”
“Kristin was amazing! She stayed with my two dogs for three nights, including the Fourth of July. She kept me updated at all times, sent videos, photos, and message updates. I felt very relaxed knowing she was with them. One of my dogs has leash reactivity and Kristin handled it very professionally and well. No incidents occurred with her. I even came home to a clean home! She said she wanted me to be able to relax when I returned. I will definitely use her again! Absolutely incredible service.”
“Sean took excellent care of our two dogs, who both have very different needs (one old guy and one puppy). He made sure our puppy got lots of exercise, and that our old guy was comfortable. Sean sent regular photos and updates, which we greatly appreciated. We would definitely recommend him, and will consider him for any future pet sitting needs!”
“Majestyc was wonderful with our Klooney and Brutus. She sent me photos and videos of our dogs under her care. Klooney didn’t want to eat and she was so patient with him and helped him start to eat. We will definitely ask her to care for our dogs next time we are out of town.”
“Venetia was great with our two pets. Our dog hates the rain. It rained the entire week we were gone and she handled him very well. Our cat was awesome too, but not as awesome as this sitter. Give her a try if you are looking to bool a sitter”
About: I have grown up taking care of pets as long as I can remember! I have 2 dog children of my own currently and also have experience with cats! I’m currently not working so I have plenty of time to take care of your fur baby! I can stay the night with them or do as many drop ins as needed! I have a fenced yard and my dogs are super friendly! We’re a pet on furniture and bed friendly home so they can be sure to sleep tight with me!
About: I've had a dog for the past 18 years and have also been a dog training instructor for all ages of dogs. I've potty trained and crate trained dogs, have taught them how to walk on a leash and basic commands. I also have experience with senior dogs and dogs that require medication. I can fit care for your pet into my schedule with plenty of play outside in a fenced in yard, walks in nearby Tower Park and indoor play with toys on days with inclement weather. I have a son who enjoys playing with the pets I sit by kicking a soccer ball around the backyard for them to chase. I have a fenced in yard for your pet to run and play in freely while supervised. I can also take your dog out on a leash if you would prefer they are leashed while relieving themselves. I'm not too far from Tower Park and can take your dog(s) on walks everyday. I do not currently have a dog (my senior boxer passed away in January) so pets that I sit will be the only ones in the house. Unless the owner doesn't allow it, pets are allowed on furniture. If a crate is provided, I have space to be able to crate your pet at night.
About: Ive taken care of dogs my whole life! I love them! Neighbors and family have relied on me to feed, bathe, and of course trusted me with their dogs! I have had two dogs both 16 so I know how to not only handle puppy’s but also senior dogs! I’m currently enrolled in school but with that I have a lot of flexibility! I am free all of lunch and into the afternoon! I tend to wake up early around 7:30 so would be more than happy to help then! I am also free most weekends! I care for each dog like they’re my own by sticking to their usual routine, giving them plenty of love, attention, and exercise. I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. You’ll get daily updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands.
