House Sitting in Manchester-by-the-Sea

Lauren was excellent. She was engaged and thoughtful in her approach with both myself and Mookie and Jake. Lauren sent continous updates and pictures of the dogs which we very much appreciated. She was conscientious and very professional, we could not have enjoyed our vacation without her excellent care of Jake and Mookie. Highly recommend and will be using again in the future.

Jesse watched our two dogs at our home over a long weekend. He did a great job! We felt very comfortable leaving our quirky dogs with him. He was communicative and took excellent care of them. Our house was in good hands too. It was perfectly neat and clean when we returned home. We appreciate Jesse and the dogs loved him. We would be happy to book with Jesse again!

Always excellent pet care with Jessica

Lauren did a fabulous job taking care of our 9 year old Great Pyrenees and our garden and house while we were on a 9-day trip. Lauren sent us lots of pictures of our happy dog (who LOVED Lauren) and was perfectly clean and respectful of our home. Our garden was in better shape than before we left when we returned! Wr recommend Lauren highly and will about be reaching out to her again!

Katie was wonderful in caring for my home and pets while I was away. She provided multiple check-ins with photos each day and was very easy to communicate with. I had such peace of mind knowing she was caring for my dog and two cats. I will not hesitate to request her services again in the future!

So glad that we found Henry! He was wonderfully communicative and took the best care of our dog. Additionally was respectful of our space while he stayed in our home. Thank you Henry!

Wiktoria and her husband stayed in our home with our dog, Millie, for seven nights. Overall, Millie was well cared for and happy. They were also very flexible in extending their stay when our travel was disrupted, which we truly appreciated. We did have a few areas that didn’t fully meet our expectations. Millie was only taken on two walks during their stay, despite our request for daily walks or outings (even short car rides). We understand February weather in Massachusetts can be challenging, especially with a snowstorm during their visit, but we were hoping for a bit more activity. On the first day, Millie was left alone for over nine hours without prior discussion. While she can handle being alone for up to eight hours, we had emphasized that she typically spends very little time alone, and we had chosen Wiktoria based on her open availability. Thankfully, once we raised this concern, it didn’t happen again. Communication was limited — we received only a few pictures and updates, usually after we reached out first. As new users of in-home dog sitting, we realize we might have needed to be clearer about wanting daily check-ins, but it was something we expected based on other reviews. During their stay, Wiktoria let us know about ants appearing in the guest room — unusual for our home and especially for February. We offered our usual treatment suggestions, and although we found a few crumbs on the rug upon returning home, the issue now seems resolved. Overall, while Millie was safe and content, the experience didn’t quite meet our expectations given Wiktoria’s strong reviews. It was a helpful learning experience for us as first-time Rover users, and we appreciate the care she provided.

Sarah was lovely - both my dog and cat fell for her the moment she walked through the door for our Meet & Greet, and our cat even rolled all over her feet, which is incredibly rare! She took great care of both of them, was very communicative, and took great care of our home as well. We would absolutely book with Sarah again.

Alexa was the perfect pet sitter. Professional, friendly, and great with our rescue cat and dog (who are quite the handful!). We’re definitely inviting her back for our next trip.

Matt is so great. My dog, Gracie loved him so much. Definitely will have him watch her again.

Teri took great care of Renji while we were away for 9 days. She kept us updated with daily pictures to keep our minds at ease and was easy to reach. The house looked great when we returned as well. Would recommend Teri and will use for future.

Superb sitter. Relaxed and connects well with Sweetie. Took her on long walks. We returned later by >20 minutes than expected, but Laura accepted this in stride. "No problem!" Brilliant!

Andrew was a terrific dog sitter. Our dog and our house were extremely well cared for. Andrew checked everyday while we were gone, sometimes more than once, and he responded quickly whenever we reached out. We would definitely have him back!

So happy to find Jane, who looked after our boy. She was so sweet with him and made us feel very comfortable leaving. Would highly recommend Jane!!
