House Sitting in Sumner Hill

Shauna’s first dog sitting at our house: She is easy to work with, has excellent communication skills, and seems dependable and organized. Above all, the pics Shauna texted show that my senior dog felt safe and happy being with her today. I have been working with two other dog-sitters for 3 yrs, one for 2 Sundays a month and the other for late evenings when needed. They both work part-time and go to school full-time. Neither was available on Monday from 9-5, but Shauna was so that we could focus on our funeral for a relative today. My wife and I feel that our beloved Joy will be in a good hand when longer hours or overnight stay is needed.

We recently moved to Fresno and were nervous about finding someone we could trust with our six senior animals. They all have their own needs and personalities, and a couple of them can be pretty grumpy. One of our dogs, Sloane, is newly adopted and hasn’t really bonded with anyone but me yet, so I was especially anxious about leaving her. Dalene was wonderful from the very beginning. She came by twice before the stay to meet everyone, understand the routine, and make sure the animals were comfortable with her. I left three pages of instructions, and she followed everything exactly as written. She also kept me updated throughout the stay with photos and check-ins, which gave me so much peace of mind. What I appreciated most was how thoughtful and intuitive she was when small issues came up. For example, Sloane didn’t want to sleep in her crate because she’s used to sleeping in bed with me. Dalene figured out a gentle solution that kept Sloane calm without disrupting her routine. It’s clear she really pays attention to the animals and responds to what they need. When we came home, the house was spotless and all the animals were relaxed and happy. Finding someone like Dalene, especially after a big move, has been such a relief. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a sitter who is dependable, patient, and truly cares about the animals in her care.

Anna is great with my dog! He is a lot of dog to handle (85 pound Pitbull), but she does amazing with him. She takes him on walks, and I have noticed that he is less reactive to other dogs since she has been taking him consistently. He is always so happy to see her and I feel at ease knowing that she is caring for him.

Christina is absolutely exceptional! She went above and beyond. She is the finest we’ve ever worked with. She took exceptional care of Lulu and our home. We felt very grateful!

Dear, dear Rita got double duty this trip. We added a second dog, who's a sweet elderly old guy with incontinence issues. Rita took it in stride, even managing to diaper the dogger successfully, which I hadn't been able to do. As always, the dogs were happy, and everything thing was taken care of. I have complete faith in her abilities, and so appreciate her!

Jessica is a wonderful dog sitter! My Shihtzu loves her. She took care of Bella for 3 nights and sent pictures of her. Jessica is a great communicator and the house looked perfect when I got home. I have her booked for several future vacations.

Kate was awesome! Kate house sat for us and took care of our two cats. We came home to happy, healthy pets and a house that was exactly how we left it. We also received daily photos and notes from Kate which put our mind at ease while traveling. Thank you, Kate!

Hands down, Thanh-Mai is one of the best on Rover!! The original dates of our trip changed and Thanh-Mai was able to accommodate our late chage, no problem. When she came over for the meet and greet she was so great with the dogs, I knew they would be in good hands. During our trip, Thanh-Mai sent us several messages, pictures and even video daily! I highly recommend her for your pet and I look forward to having her stay with Umi and Taffy (our dogs) again. Thank you Thanh-Mai for caring for Umi and Taffy like they were your own!

We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we met her, it was clear how kind, friendly, and genuinely caring she is. She did an amazing job taking care of all three of our dogs, giving each one attention, love, and care. Our pups were happy, comfortable, and clearly well looked after, and the thoughtful updates gave us complete peace of mind. We’re so grateful to have found her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and wonderful sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!

As a first time Rover user, I was very very nervous about getting a sitter. Mary did a great job watching my English Bulldog. She followed all instructions and was even able to hand feed Toby for me, since he’s so spoiled.
