House Sitting in Willow Springs

“As a first-time River user, we were a bit nervous but Peggy was terrific! She was knowledgeable, patient and understanding with our little nervous guy and they ended up being friends by the end of the weekend. Will definitely use Rover again!”

“It was our first time getting a sitter to stay in our home and care for our 3 dogs for 2 days and Kathryn did not dissapoint. She was very attentive, sweet, patient, and understood all the directions on what to do for our 3 fur babies since they all have different eating habits and personalities. She made sure she texted me throughout her stay if she had any questions and sent us plenty of pics to keep us updated. She was very respectful of our home too. Her price is completely reasonable and I felt like the kids were in good hands with her. I would ask for her help again in the future and I definitely recommend.”

“Sarah took great care of our dog while we were away for a few nights! She provided pictures, updates, was super easy to work with. Our dog was well cared for when we returned thanks to Sarah! We will definitely work with her again.”

“Xandi did a totally exemplary job on a ten-day house sit with our senior dog with complicated medical requirements and kept us informed about how things were going throughout, including things like following through on our dog's seizure treatment protocol and asking the right clarifying questions. I'd have no reservations about working with Xandi again.”

“Karolina was very caring to our animals and very responsive. She stayed over the Christmas and I was able to not worry while visiting my family. I will ask for her to housesit when I need it again.”

“I had the pleasure of hiring Patrick W to care for my beloved furry friends, Ray-Ray and Wyatt l, and couldn’t be more thrilled with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear that Patrick has a genuine love for animals. He immediately connected with my boys, making me feel at ease leaving my dogs in his capable hands. Throughout the duration of the dog house sitting service, my dogs were well cared for and Patrick generally stuck to the feeding and walking schedule I provided, and I received regular updates and photos, which brought me comfort during my time away. Patrick genuinely cared and took the time to play with the dogs and give them the attention they need, ensuring they received plenty of exercise and affection. If you’re in need of a trustworthy, dedicated, and caring dog sitter, I highly recommend Patrick W. He exceeded my expectations and I will be reaching out to him for future pet-sitting needs. Thank you, Patrick, for being such a wonderful caregiver to my four-legged family members!”

“Angelina was stellar. Her love and care of my dog and timely communication while I was away was nothing short of five stars. Highly recommend!”

John R.

“Sam was great with our dogs!! She was extremely flexible when booking at the last minute and very communicative while she watched our pups. She made our trip extremely relaxing knowing our dogs were in great hands.”

Tessa L.

“Athena was amazing! Our girls had so much fun & were very well taken care of. She also sent plenty of pictures and updates! We couldn’t have asked for anyone better!”

Abbey R.

“Ann was amazing with our cat and dog, as usual, but went above and beyond when our flight home got canceled due to a hurricane. We are so grateful she happily agreed to stay another day- it really put our minds at ease during a really stressful and helpless time.”

Colleen N.

“Aryanna was a fantastic sitter! She kept me updated on everything and was even accommodating when I suddenly fell ill with COVID! I definitely recommend her services.”

Whitney C.

“Arianna was the BEST! She stayed at my home to watch my 12 year old dog and housesit. My dog had some digestive issues, and Arianna went over and beyond to clean up the messes. She was in constant communication with me and I would highly recommend her for any job. Very pleased with her and will be happy to provide her a reference!”

Judi S.

“Danica is consistent and professional throught the Rover experience. I've been burned before with previous dog sitters that have been inconsistent and unresponsive, but Danica is always punctual and quick to respond to any concerns/needs. I trust her to be with my pups when they are most stressed and take care of them when I'm away. That peace of mind is priceless and I love having Danica over to watch my pups.”

Edward H.

“Melanie was great with our dogs! She sent us lots of pictures of them having fun while we’re we’re away. They were so happy and had lots of energy when we got home. And our home was just as we left it! Thank you so much!”

Aubrie W.

“Holly was easy to work with; she was communicative and prompt and got along really well with our pets. We have both dogs and cats, and Holly took care of all of them at our house. We felt very comfortable leaving them in Holly's care, and we hope to be able to hire her again in the future.”

Noelle M.

“Maani was wonderful! From the very beginning, she was communicative, professional, and clearly an animal lover. Throughout the entire stay, I received steady updates and pictures of my pets, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. I will absolutely be booking with her again — highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and caring sitter!”

About: I've owned and cared for all kinds of animals my whole life. Professionally, I have experience working as a dog handler, kennel attendant, dog bather, and groomer. I also have extensive experience working and caring for cats, horses, and various small animals. My +3 years working at a dog daycare facility had me safely handling a pack of up to 25 dogs; providing exercise & engagement, soft corrections, and positive reinforcement. To do so, it was necessary to be observant and in tune with the dog's behavior and always on the lookout for any signs of stress or aggression. As a bather and groomer, I was focused on hygiene but a large aspect of the job relied on my knowledge of dog behavior and training techniques. I've owned cats my entire life and have worked with a TNR rescue the past few years getting pregnant females and unneutered male cats fixed and adopted. I also have pet care insurance with animal baliee coverage in case of emergencies. I always care for every animal as if they are my own and I understand how important it is for them to feel comfortable and loved. I work part-time on the night shift, so I'm unavailable Monday through Friday between 10pm and 3am. Outside of that- my schedule is flexible. I am also available on most weekends and holidays. I live in a quiet suburban neighborhood with a very large, unfenced yard. I own a variety of animal care supplies and equipment including lunge-line leashes to keep dogs safely on my property.

About: I've always had a love for dogs and have cared for my own dogs since I was 12. My friends and family have asked me to walk, play with, feed, or bathe their pets and I am always happy to help! During the week, I work from home three days out of the five and those days I am responsible for my pets at home and love being able to be home with them. At home I have a fenced in yard that is perfect for play dates. My two dogs are very friendly with other dogs and they are crate trained so they can be easily put away. I do not plan on bringing my dogs for the services that I provide because they have anxiety.

About: I have grown up around dogs since I was born. I have always loved caring for and interacting with dogs. I do not have my own dog currently, but would love to help care for others! I am currently substitute teaching at an elementary school, so there may be weekdays I am unavailable. I am currently not working full time, so I will be available to walk your dog(s) throughout the week! I am open to walking as far as needed for your pup. I have experience safely walking more energized dogs, so your dog will be in good hands! I have also walked up to 3 dogs at a time (various sizes) if you have more than one that needs to be walked a time.

“Nina was amazing. She was very knowledgeable and knew how to take control of our two pups and does not let them walk all over her. We have two large (70lbs or so) pitbull mixes and in the first few minutes of her meeting them, I could tell she would be able to handle them. To our surprise, they even got along with the other dogs she was watching during their stay which they normally do not do. I would definitely recommend Nina to our friends!”
