House Sitting in Winsted

“Alex has loved animals, especially dogs, ever since childhood. He has taken care his own family dog as well as doing dog sitting for many other families. Even as children, he and his siblings were known to ask neighbors if they could please walk their dogs or play with them. As an adult, all animals fascinate him and he often talks about their behavior and how wonderful they are, I cannot recommend a more perfect person for a position of dog walking or dog sitting.”

“Excellent, our shy animals got along great with Midori. We could not be more pleased!”

“Marisa is so kind and delightful to have as a sitter. Our dog is very shy around new people and Marisa was so patient with her. She kept us updated while we were away and responded promptly. We will definitely book her again!”

“I would highly recommend Jolene as your pet sitter. This was our first time using Rover. Having a stranger stay at our house and take care of our dogs made us very nervous , but after meeting with her a few times I felt more at ease with her. She asked all the right questions, she was very professional and my dogs took to her immediately. She did exactly what we needed her to do which included giving one of my dogs medication and a brushing because of a skin issue. She kept in touch with us, sent pictures and she left our house spotless, without a trace that she was there. She even asked where my vacuum cleaner was to make sure all dog hair was cleaned up before we got home. I am very pleased with our experience with her and would use her again. Thanks Jolene!!!”

“Tara sent beautiful photos of my girl, and it is obvious just how happy she is. Tara is knowledgeable about dog care, and identified a potential ear infection right away, and our vet told me she did all the right things and it cleared up the next day. I completely trust her with the care of my dog and my home and will definitely book with Tara again.”

“Christine is wonderful!! First time booking her was for a week of house sitting with our 85 pound Sadie, and she was so reliable and trustworthy! Would absolutely recommend her and plan to request her again. Everything was as promised and carried out. An amazing find for us!!!”

About: Hi, I am 31 and an animal lover. I have a full time job that is a flexible and I love being outside whenever I can be. I have one rescue dog and one rescue cat that get along great and love other animals. This is a side job/passion project for me that I have been doing for years and don’t plan on stopping. My preferred walking areas are the Santa Fe Trail and White Rock Lake trails, I also frequent Oak Cliff Nature Preserve and the Cedar Ridge Preserve. I am open to hearing what you would like and need and would love to find a few families to add to my roster that I can work with regularly. Thank you so much for reading! I am currently working from home with lots of free time on my hands and would love to fill that with walks with my dog and yours. I am located in New Hartford and love walking around my neighborhood, there is also a great hiking trail within a few miles of my house that I frequent.

“Julie is a fabulous pet sitter! Julie has taken care of my sweet Tipsy for years, treating her as her own. Tipsy gets very excited whenever she sees Aunt Julie. You'll be very happy with the attention to detail Julie will provide.”

“Londiwe is and has always had shown love and caring for animals and pets in particular from an early age. She see pets far different from the most people because of her strong feeling .as a kid she used to frequent a pet store in New Jersey called ' Shake a paw' just to be closer to them because she couldn't own one. You would never convince her not to go to that pet store up until when the family adopted cat for a pet . She and the cat could not be separated , .she would make great pet sitter and or good dog walker.”

“Joshua was great! He stayed at the house with our very energetic puppy while we got married. He was so communicative leading up to it and sent updates throughout. He was incredibly professional and we will definitely go with Joshua again!”

“Elena stayed at my house and watched my dog for a few days while I was out of town. This was my first time having a house sitter. She was very good at communicating. She sent lots of pictures and videos. She took my dog out for many walks and played with him in the yard. She also took good care of the house; watered our plants and cleaned. I would definitely recommend Elena for house sitting! Thank you Elena!”

“I’ve known Pamela for 10 years. She loves dogs and cats! I’ve seen her connect quickly with animals including my 2 cats and 17 yr old pup. They take to her quickly. Pamela is also in awesome shape so she will give all of the dogs a good exercise. She’s a cat owner and knows how to handle all temperaments. I highly recommend Pamela to work with your company.”

“Stacey was wonderful! She was so easy to communicate with ahead of watching our dog and was also super self sufficient around our house. There was a bad storm when she was scheduled to watch our dog and we live in a pretty remote area and she had zero complaints. She was fantastic all around!”

About: I had my own wonderful dog for 16 years. I’ve also taken care of family member's and friend's dogs. Big or small dogs are okay with me. I’m a student and much of my school work is online so getting outside to walk and play with dogs is much needed for me. I do have a fence in backyard. My backyard has plenty of space as well for your dog to explore. I love dogs and have experience taking care of them.

“Sally was born surrrounded by dogs and cats. It was normal life for her to love them. After we moved to another continent, she misses them extremily. Sometimes she does as foster, but eventually we end every chapter crying. If she cares other dogs (or other pets) she can fullfill that emptiness and can also be used to give them back back in a daily basis without miss them.”

“Paola was attentive and communicative. I booked her services for two days and a half. She checked in with me throughout the stay and sent me update pictures and check in times. She stayed about 5 hours total per day. My cat is very friendly and easy to work with and he seemed in good spirits when I got back and she cleaned up his area without hesitation. Would definitely book again for drop-in visits.”

“Ella is always willing to care for furry friends, she is punctual and looks forward to long walks with dogs. Ella has Ella has taken care of many neighbors, and friends dogs over the years.”

“Elissa was wonderful with our dog Ted. She stayed at her house overnight, she walked him multiple times a day. And overall took really good care of Ted (and our house.) we will definitely be asking Alisa to stay with Ted in the future.”

“There are times when we cannot take our beloved dog with us. In these instances we are beyond gratefull that Tiff has been available to care for our family member. Our dog gets to go on lots of adventures with her where he gets plenty of exercise hiking, swimming and running. Tiff was very accomodating when we gave her his dietary requirements and was even willing to do his meal prep while we were away. Our boy has a fresh/raw diet which can be a burden for some but Tiff didnt blink an eye. Knowing he is left in such caring hands and provides us with the ability to enjoy our time away and not stress about having to leave our family member in a kennel. He much prefers the comforts of his own home and we truly value and trust Tiff to make sure he enjoys his time away from us as well.”

“Thank you Angela for taking care of our boy . Angela walked, played and fed Lin . He didn’t feel lonely and wasn’t sad when we arrived . She sent us tons of pics not only of Lin but also of our cats :)”
