“Lindsey has house sat for our dog and cat twice now. We always return to happy pets. :) She is responsible, courteous, and communicative. Usually our dog Penny takes several minutes to calm down when meeting someone new. When Penny met Lindsey, she calmed down almost immediately because of Lindsey's demeanor and experience with dog training. I would highly recommend her.”
“Gabby watched our dog this weekend and did a remarkable job! She gave great updates throughout the weekend and you could tell Harvey was well taken care of. She even did a little photo shoot of him. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Elise fulfilled a very special request for us to watch our dog on our wedding day. She was more than willing to go above and beyond to ensure us and our dog had a smooth day. She drove him around and he even got to play with her dog Duke! We got some very cute pictures at the end as well. Our dog was in great hands - highly recommend her care and would use again!!”
About: Hi!! My name is Saskia and I was born and raised in Germany. In December 2021 I moved to the US, with my precious little dog Lady, to live with my husband. I grew up with dogs all my life, dogs all sizes and ages. There was not one time I didn’t have at least one dog around me. Until my Dachshund Lady passed at the age of 16 years in early 2023. She was my everything and I miss her dearly. This is why I appreciate Rover. I haven’t quite been ready to find a new fur baby for me yet but I have so much love and pats to give. I was house and dog sitting (and cat sitting!) while I traveled Australia for about 9 months in 2019-2020. It was the best time of my life getting, to do what I love most: traveling and spending time with dogs! I’m experienced with giving medication since I was dog sitting a dog with epilepsy for a couple months. And later I also had to give my dog Lady oral medication. My daughter (3 years) is very gentle and patient as well as understanding with animals of all kinds. She needs some time to warm up (as you might learn when we have a meet and greet) but she will quickly earn trust and is always excited to have a buddy to play with. If your fur baby likes it more quiet she will understand that as well and just give some gentle pats and cuddles. With me you will be sure I will always treat your fur baby as the precious being they are, they will be like just another family member to me. Dogs give us so much in life, it’s only fair to give it back. I am lucky to be able to be a stay at home mom to my 3 year old daughter. We are mostly home all day. If the weather allows we spend time outside in the yard or go down to the playground/park which is only 7 walking minutes away from my home. I personally love going for walks everyday, so if your doggo needs exercise and loves going for walks we are a great match! Your fur baby is welcome on the couch as well as on the bed if not directed otherwise. If you wish your dog to be crated at any time I can do that as well. I live in a rather quiet area with lots of greenery around. We have daily visitors on our porch such as squirrels, chipmunks, bunnies, birds and sometimes we are lucky to see deer in our backyard ☺️

I care for my own pets by cleaning their litter box, feeding them and giving them lots of treats, pets, and cuddles 😊
“I don't have enough good things to say about how wonderful she was with my girl & provided more than just great care. She knew how to handle my dog's energy level & truly went above and beyond which put me at ease while away. Posie definitely loved having her company!”
“Matt did a great job taking care of our pets. He was great about communicating when one pet became sick. The house was left clean and everything was in its place.”

“Kylie was absolutely amazing with our dogs! She was able to give them their anxiety medication and actually spend a lot of time with them to make sure they were doing good! She sent lots of pictures and updates of their weekend, and followed all care instructions exactly. Letting someone into your home to care for your dogs is nerve wracking and stressful, but Kylie made it so easy for us!! We will definitely ask her to come back in the future!”

About: I have had dogs since I was 6 years old but as an adult I’ve had my own for the last five years. I have a one and a half year old Labrador Retriever and a Six year old German Shepard Malinois mix. I make sure to take my dogs for walks at least once a day and we also go for weekly adventures. To me having dogs brings a whole new level of companionship to life. They are my whole world and having the opportunity to care for other peoples furry friends would be something that is so special to me! I currently am self employed so most of my day is spent at home working on my laptop! If your pupper follows a certain schedule I would be more than happy to make sure it is followed. I think it is extremely to maintain a pets routine! For my dogs we get up everyday around 7 and then I let take them outside to go potty, following that we eat breakfast, go for a walk, and then about every 2/3 hours I take them potty, then at night they eat dinner at 5:30, followed by either another walk. If there is a routine that your pet has I would be more than happy to make sure it is followed!

Saskia B.Star Sitter
“Saskia will love and care for your furbaby as she does her own child. Her love for animals far exceeds any other person I know. She assures that they are cuddled, loved, as well as, have proper exercise and meals. She surpasses any furbaby-sitter I've ever known. My beagle, Montana, is a loud, fun girl, with a big appetite and anxiety. She's gotten to know and love Saskia. Montana explodes with joy when she sees Saskia and loves her time with her. I would recommend her a thousand times over and once you have her care for your precious furbaby, you will as well.”
