House Sitting in Park Forest

This was our first time using Rover. My husband and I went on a week-long trip, and we couldn't find anyone to watch our 2 kitties overnight. I was nervous because I usually like to have family watch them, as I know them. After meeting Khalia, I could tell she cared for animals, and it made me feel better. She did a great job with our little chaos gremlins, and they felt safe with her! She left everything nice and clean, respected our home, and gave us updates with pictures. The pics meant a lot! I'm a worried cat momma, so this helped with us being so far away. We'll continue to reach out to her when we need a cat sitter!

Rob was great. Our dog and cat were so happy to have someone so attentive to take care of them in our own home. It made being away so much easier knowing our first babies were in good hands.

Brit stayed at our home for a week to look after our two golden retrievers who are both incredibly energetic and high-needs!! We didn’t worry one bit while she was here. From day one, Brit jumped into our routine with warmth, reliability, and a calm that instantly put our dogs at ease. Brit kept our dogs happy, safe, and well-exercised. She managed their high energy with patience, engaging play, and plenty of mental stimulation. She kept them on their feeding schedule, followed routines, and made sure they had ample outdoor time, naps, and plenty of affection. Communication was exceptional. We received regular updates and photos, which was a huge comfort while we were away. Our dogs clearly bonded with her, and we felt confident that they were in capable, loving hands the entire week. They were sad to see her go… watched Brit drive away through our living room window! Bottom line: if you need a trustworthy, dog-loving sitter who truly understands high-energy breeds, Brit is your person. We’d hire her again in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommended.

This was our first time working with Vanessa and there were a few kinks to work out over text during her stay (getting into our apartment/timing, communication and check-in frequency) but after day 1 it was super smooth! She sent great pictures of our pets (a cat and dog) and they clearly enjoyed having her there with them. It was nice for us to know they had someone caring for them when we were gone! Our apartment was also clean and organized when we got back.
