House Sitting in Newbury Old Town

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!

Our cat Lily loved Corinne and so did we! She has the sensitivity needed to work with animals. She was very responsible, communicative, and I swear that our place was cleaner than we left it! She has earned our trust and will always be our first choice for cat sitter in Rochester.

Peach took great care of my pup while I was away for an entire week. Peach and Whitney formed an instant bond, and Peach spent a lot of time playing with Whitney while I was away. She sent me many lovely photos and videos that helped reassure me that Whitney was thriving in my absence. Peach is a lovely person, and took good care of my home while I was away. It was nice and clean when I got home. She has a generous heart and even picked me up at the airport when I returned. I would highly recommend Peach for dog and house sitting.

Janine was so sweet sending daily photos of my kitties! It made a difference knowing she was caring for them while away at my son’s destination wedding!😻

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!

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.

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!

We highly recommend Kaitlyn! She watched our two Aussies for 3 nights at our home. It was clear that they were well-loved & taken care of while we were gone. Kaitlyn is responsible, caring, and a great communicator. We’re so happy we found her!

Kadence was amazing!! We needed a sitter for our 4th of July wedding and she gave us absolute peace of mind so we could focus on our weekend. She is reliable, caring, and kind, and took wonderful care of our cat and dog. Thank you again, Kadence!! We appreciate you!

Sean did a wonderful job taking care of our golden, Finny. He was calm and relaxed when we got home. Sean left our house in great shape! In addition she communicated with us frequently and sent lots of photos while we were away. We were delighted with our experience with Sean.

Carolyn is amazing! She went above and beyond with daily messages and adorable photos! If you’re looking for a caring and attentive dog sitter, Carolyn is the best. Highly recommended!

Super impressed with Ariana. First time I used her and she did all I asked and extra. Spent the night with my dog, gave constant updates and pictures, and gave options for extras like checking in on my dog later. Loved the attentiveness!
