House Sitting in Starkey

“She kept on top of my dogs’ changing needs and kept me in the loop so the week away didn’t feel quite as worrying! And we returned to the house even more tidy than we left it, which was a lovely surprise!”

Bic K.

“Hannah cared for my dogs for 2 weeks in a row. One of the dogs got injured by attacking a squirrel and she tended to his wounds. He healed well and the wounds were almost unnoticeable when I arrived home. Thank you!!”

Kristin G.

“Excellent caregiver and provided timely updates. We have two needy dogs of different sizes and she was great with both of them. Would work with again.”

Stephen S.

“Justine is outstanding! I never worry about our animals when we go out of town and leave her in charge. She handles our reactive dog with ease and understanding and we just really appreciate the care she takes of them!”

“I had a great experience with Erin & Matthew as my pet sitters. They took excellent care of both my home and Banco while I was away, which gave me real peace of mind. I especially appreciated the daily photo and video updates, it made it easy to see that Banco was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. Everything was handled responsibly and with attention to detail, and I came back to a home that was just as I left it. I’d absolutely trust Erin & Matthew again and would recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and thoughtful pet sitters!”

About: I have been raised to care for pets. My entire life my family has had Labs, and I have grown to love them so very much. I also have experience with Cats, Ferrets, and now I have my own Bunny! I am on summer break from Roanoke College so I am free anytime to care for furry friends! Whatever their needs are, I am there! In my house, each of my pets have their own litter boxes, water/food bowls, and my bunny has her own room. I devote hours each day to provide enrichment to each of my pets. I would do the same with my clients pets!

About: I have several years of experience with both dogs and cats. The largest dog I've handled was 120 lbs. I'm down to cuddle or go on a walk, whatever your pet needs. I am a college student so I am flexible daily and can come by your house when needed. I am free on weekends and most weeknights. I would love if you can give me specifics on your pet's routine and any behavior I should know about. I have some experience with oral medication if your pet ever needs it.

“Nicole did a fantastic job of watching the pets while I was gone! She sent plenty of pictures, which was reassuring. She even kept my plants watered, which was a huge help. I’d highly recommend!”

Scott S.

“Machalah has been a consistent overnight sitter for my pup for several months! He loves spending time with her and I love the peace of mind knowing he is well cared for. She is communicative, sends photos, and has been comfortable talking through his health needs - including giving medications! We look forward to continuing to have Machalah as a pet sitter!”

Sarah A.

“Zoe was great! She was very responsive when messaging. My dog takes a little for her to warm up to someone but Zoe was able to get her to warm up quickly and even got her to cuddle. I would recommend and will use her again in the future.”

Mallory M.

“Donna is a very reliable pet sitter. I have used her three times now and been very happy with her services. Our house is always cleaner when we get home than when we left. Also Linde likes Donna so she seems calm when we return from being away.”

Dennis T.

“Samantha provided dog sitting in our home for us when our travel plans changed last minute. It was a huge weight off our shoulders to not have to worry about him. She provided frequent and thorough updates and you could tell she cares for the animals she sits. We definitely recommend her and will be using her services in the future”

Jessica G.

“Lexi was great! She stayed at my house with my pups and gave them all kinds of snuggles and love and sent me pictures and messages as updates. She left the house as she found it. I’d definitely recommend Lexi to take care of your pets!”

Valerie V.

“I’m really happy with Elizabeth’s communication - always clear, accommodating, and friendly. Both our dogs looked happy, relaxed, and pampered in all the photo updates. Will definitely be booking again!”

Liz M.

“Ashley is a very tentative sitter. She made sure our pets were well cared for while we were away. She did everything asked of her and then some.”

Dawn L.

“De'Asia stayed with our 66 lb sweet but dog-reactive handful for several days. We told her she was welcome to walk him but didnt have to. She took him all over thre neighborhood successfully while keeping me well informed of how he was the whole time. That alone would have been above and beyond. My house was cleaner than I left it, possibly cleaner than I've seen it in months. She treated both my house and my dog like her own. I told my husband to make room because I was going to beg her to move in. Heck. We might go out of town just to give the dog another chance to stay with her. I've had a lot of rover sitters over the years and De'Asia is the best we've ever had. I strongly suggest booking her, as long as its not while Im also out of town.”

Tianna L.

“Haley was amazing at keeping me updated with pictures and videos! Her work schedule aligned with what my dog was used to so it worked perfectly. I would definitely recommend Haley to anyone looking for dog sitter!”

Abigail M.

“Amber has watched our 11 year old AussieDoodle several times, and we added a Cocker Spaniel puppy to the mix. We are always updated during the sit time with added photos, and we come back to happy pets. Definitely recommend her. She is Responsible. Responsive. Respectful. Reliable. Reputable.”

Dianna E.

“As always, Gena was incredible. We were out of the country for almost 2 full weeks, and came home to a perfect home and the happiest fur babies. We feel so at peace leaving our pets and our home with Gena. ❤️”

About: I’ve taken care of my neighbor’s animals whenever they needed me to since I was in elementary school. I’m known to be extremely responsible, and have been working since I was 15 years old. I have two dogs currently and one cat, and have helped to take care of my family pets since I was in kindergarten. I am very good at time management and organization and will always be able to make time to take care of your pet. I am available most mornings and evenings. My schedule is extremely flexible as I am a college student and can move things around as necessary in order to take care of your loved animal. I am very gentle with all animals and will never be harsh with your pet. I am great with keeping a good schedule for feeding and letting your pet out to go to the restroom, along with giving them an excellent walk so their energy is well spent. I love spending quality time with pets outside of walking, too, whether it’s throwing a toy in the backyard or just watching television together for a little bit so they don’t feel lonely.
