House Sitting in Shady Dale

Catecha did a great job caring for our German Shepherd, Aries. She followed his schedule, played with him outside to help burn energy, and was patient with all his quirks. Aries is a big, energetic, and sometimes very spoiled boy, but he listens when someone sets the tone; and that’s exactly why we chose her. Catecha was kind, calm, and confident, which helped him settle right in. We appreciated how open she was to learning his routines and making sure he stayed safe and happy.

Abigail is a very sweet and honest person, and I appreciated that she spent the day at home with Kulfi. She followed the schedule and instructions I provided (meals, potty breaks, and giving her companionship throughout the day). Her fiancé mainly came in the evenings to spend the night and then left for work the next morning. That said, a few small housekeeping details were missed and the care felt more basic than I’m used to, without much extra attentiveness beyond the essentials. However, Kulfi was safe and her routine was maintained. Suggestions to be an exceptional Rover sitter: Adding a bit more enrichment and “extra mile” care would make a big difference—an additional walk (or a longer walk), dedicated playtime sessions, mental stimulation like simple games/snuffle mat/puzzle treats, and a quick daily check-in with a couple photos/videos plus a short note about mood, appetite, potty/walk times, and energy level. I think a little time investment and physical activity would make her an exceptional rover sitter for the price and more worth it then boarding your furbabies.

Taryn did an excellent job!!!! We were very happy

Murphy is such a caring and attentive sitter, we are so lucky to have found him! The dogs absolutely adore him and everything is always perfect when he sits.

Courtney was amazing, and my dogs loved her. This was the first time using a house sitter and highly recommend because my dogs were happy staying home. Courtney even brought treats and toys for my dogs. I have booked Courtney for an upcoming trip because I 100% trust her in my house and with my dogs. I received daily pictures of my dogs.

Dominique was awesome! I'm thankful she was available in such short notice to come to my home and watch my boy. She's super sweet and kind. She was also very responsive. Again, thank you so much for saving me in such a short amount of time. I'd definitely use her again, hoping she's available when that time comes!!

Canija was great and very sweet with my dog. He’s pretty weary of strangers but warmed up to her rather quickly. Would most definitely book again!
