House Sitting in Sycamore Springs

Excellent

Johana took care of our husky Koa while we were in Hawaii and she was phenomenal. She stayed in our home, followed every instruction to a T, and the house was spotless when we got back. This was the first time Johana had watched Koa. And although she came by a couple of times before our trip, Koa was still super shy and apprehensive. But this is his typical personality. It's like the movie with Adam Sandler, "50 First Dates". It takes 50 first dates for him to finally warm up. And usually in the morning, he has amnesia and can't remember that he was warming up the day before. LOL But Johana was very patient, tried different techniques to build trust with him, and by day 4 she'd earned enough of his confidence that he let her take him on a real walk. If you know huskies, that is not easy to pull off. She sent updates and pictures every single day. We'd wake up in Hawaii to photos of Koa and it made the whole trip better knowing he was loved and well taken care of. She even left us a Polaroid, a really sweet touch. If you need someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely great with dogs, especially ones that take a minute to warm up, Johana is who you want. We highly recommend her and will most definitely be using her again in the future.

Maria is an angel! We have wanted to take a vacation, but always put it off because we could not find someone that we trust leaving our boys with. And then we found Maria… wow! She is hands down the best sitter we’ve ever had! To start off with, Maria always messages us the day before to confirm times. She then messages when she is leaving her house and when she arrives. She provides updates with pictures and videos on a daily basis. We’ve never had anyone be so dependable and trustworthy. She is so patient and loving to our boys. They absolutely adore her and can’t wait to see her. Our oldest kept searching the house for her because he missed her. When we returned from our week long trip, our home was in immaculate conduit, like we had never left. Overall, we’ve truly been blessed to have found Maria. She is amazing to our boys and to us. We cannot thank her enough and can’t wait to book her again!

Sky warmed up to Marissa instantly at the meet and greet and again when Marissa came for the house/pet sitting. When we arrived home Sky was happy and had been well taken care of.

This was my first time using Rover. I'm so happy with the experience. Ayla was a joy to work with. She provided wonderful care and thorough communication. I always knew what my pets were up to. I'm so happy with Ayla and I new feel secure knowing my cats and dog were well cared for and I can take a longer vacation next time. Thank you Rover and Ayla!

Don't want to sing her praises too loudly, lest she get so booked up we don't see her again. Renee is a perfect dream of a dog and house sitter. Reliable, thorough, trustworthy, loving. Couldn't ask for better.

Great job taking care of our 3 dogs. Kept us updated with texts and pictures per our request. She was patient with our anxious large Pyrenees. Friendly and followed instructions well.
