House Sitting in Marlow Heights

Ada was amazing. I was out of town and had to get the person watching my dogs to take them to Ada, it was a lot of chaos and cross communication and thankfully she was patient with it all. She watched all 4 of my dogs and they loved her. Even my abused rescue warmed up to her right away and that never happens. Will definitely book with her again.

Alayza was an amazing sitter! I have a small pup with a big personality and she was so accommodating to both his needs (and mine with lots of updates). Would book with her again!

Anthony was the god-send in an urgent situation, coming on board with very short notice. Because of my situation, some of the usual steps were skipped. I didn't learn til the meet & greet that he had some long shifts at work, that required me to make additional arrangements to feed and walk the dogs on those days. In the past, rover responders have checked the needs and raised the question of whether their schedule matches my dog's needs before we get to meet & greet. Secondly, being clear about expectations/limits of pantry use would have served us both better. Finally, expectations that the fridge be left empty of the dog-sitters leftovers should have been expressed. Ultimately, my dogs were cared for. And I think Anthony is learning how to be a considerate in=home sitter.

Our dog has separation anxiety and a bit of “stranger danger,” and Bria was so patient with making sure our dog felt comfortable and confident. It’s clear Bria is a pro!

Amazing! Anh watched my dogs for 6 days. My dogs were so calm when I got home after being showered with love the whole time I was away. Much calmer than they usually are after boarding. They love Anh so much! Anh went above and beyond - she brought in packages, she left my place so clean, she sent regular pics and updates including about who was eating and how my stress-licker was doing, and she was such a prompt communicator at all stages (before and after). She even checked to make sure I’d arrived back home to make sure the dogs were good. It’s so nice to find someone so thoughtful that you can trust with your home and your babies for almost a week!

Shannon took wonderful care of our dog, cat, and home when we were on vacation for 2.5 weeks. She asked great, thorough questions about them when we were establishing her care and she was responsive and attentive to their needs while we were gone. Knowing she was caring for them really helped us relax while we were away. We would definitely book with her again for a future long trip!

Always a pleasure working with them!!! Never have to worry about my boys and get the best updates throughout their stay. A repeat customer many times over for a reason!

Niani was great. Had lots of check ins, photos and videos. Great communication.

Aiyana house sat / watched my cat for a week and a half while I traveled abroad. She made my time away so much more relaxed knowing kitty was in good hands. My cat loves being around people which is why I always make sure when I travel more than 2 nights, to have someone stay there with him. Aiyana clearly cares about the animals she watches and could easily tell that she gave him the love and attention he craves. She was in constant contact with me, sending several photos each day which always helps to put my mind at ease. Would definitely recommend Aiyana and will happily have her watch Morton again in the future.

Extremely happy with Imani-she was very responsive and responsible and took excellent care of Augie. Augie took to her right away; I will definitely be asking Imani to puppy sit again!

I have two dogs who have behavioral issues (one is wary of new people and very anxious and both have dog aggression), so I'm always nervous when we meet a new sitter. When we met Jayne, my fears were immediately gone. She was great with them, very knowledgable about dog behavior and a calming presence- she is a true professional, not just a "dog lover" (which would be fine for someone with very easy going dogs!). She stayed at our house for two nights while we visited family. She kept us updated and sent pictures too. Normally I'm very anxious when away, but I felt I didn't have to worry at all with Jayne there. When we returned the dogs were happy and healthy and the house was exactly as we had left it. I'm so happy to have found Jayne and I will definitely book her again!

Stephanie was wonderful and truly is the Animal Whisperer. Our pup Kenzo is the sweetest boy but struggles with some anxiety. Stephanie immediately put him at ease, gave him massages, took him on a walk, and played fetch and tug of war with him. She was prompt in her arrival, an excellent communicator (sending lots of updates and adorable photos), and even stayed 15 minutes later than expected as we were running late. I’d definitely have her back and Kenzo was just smitten.

Keisha was absolutely wonderful with our Doberman, Ruger! She followed all of our instructions, including taking him out in the backyard, spent quality time playing with him, and kept us updated throughout the day with videos and messages. Those updates gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Thanks to Keisha, we were able to enjoy a full day celebrating our niece’s 10th birthday at the amusement park without worrying about Ruger. It was clear that she genuinely cared for him and made sure he was happy, active, and well looked after. We truly appreciate everything Keisha did and would absolutely love to have her watch our Dobbie again. Highly recommend!

Karima was wonderful! She was communicative and asked really good questions. I felt very comfortable leaving Wrigley with her and would certainly book with her again!

Jordan was great with my pup! This was her first time sitting for my dog & I was admittedly nervous to leave for such a long trip. She sent updates a couple times a day with pictures which helped ease some of my anxiety. She was also super attentive and followed the care instructions very well. I'll definitely book with her in the future!

Nadia has truly been amazing with Brooklyn and has gone above and beyond every single time she cares for her. As someone who works long 13 hr shifts, having a sitter I can genuinely trust and feel comfortable with means everything to me. Nadia communicates with me throughout my shift, sends updates, and is incredibly proactive and diligent with Brooklyn’s care. She has honestly eased so much of my anxiety when I’m away because I never have to wonder how Brooklyn is doing. What I appreciate most is the amount of thought and effort she puts into making sure Brooklyn is completely taken care of before I get home. By the time I walk through the door after work, Brooklyn has been walked, cared for, and settled, and everything is in order to the point that I can literally come home and go straight to sleep. That level of consideration is invaluable to me. She has also been incredibly helpful throughout Brooklyn’s potty-training process. She’s always willing to offer thoughtful tips and feedback, and she even took the initiative to create potty-training logs to track Brooklyn’s pees and poops while in her care so that we could better understand her routine and progress. Nadia doesn’t just “watch” Brooklyn….she genuinely invests herself in her care and development. And after hiring other sitters in the past, you can definitely tell the difference between the care that others give compared to the care that Nadia gives. She is attentive, communicative, thoughtful, reliable, and consistently goes the extra mile. I’m incredibly grateful to have found her and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pup 🥹💗
