House Sitting in South Gardiner

Erin was very communicative, would book again to check in on our cat!

Kayla was excellent to work with! Our family had to make changes in our plans and Kayla absolutely was flexible! She was so accommodating! Thank you Kayla for all of your help and taking care of teddy! ❤️

Christi was perfect for our pups! She was responsive, sent us photos and updates. We hate to leave them at home but we knew they were safe and happy in her care!

We booked Atlas last minute for a week long trip, leaving her with our three dogs and cat. She was very accommodating and got along with our dogs quickly! She kept us updated every day, providing pictures and videos and left our house just how we left it. Would book again!

When my husband insisted we go away for an extended European holiday, my primary concern had been animal care as we have never left them for so long. We feel so fortunate to have found and booked with Craig & Chelsea. Craig's affinity for animal care was paramount through every step of the booking. He took great care to acquire background information on our animals in order to have a successful meet and greet. And he was happy to accommodate and book a couple of info/walk sessions before our trip to help acclimate him to our home, trails, and allow our dogs and cat to become familiar with him. Craig was communicative throughout our trip, and shared the right amount and interval of photos and anecdotes to keep us in the loop. In fact, one of the photos shared is now my phone background, Craig managed to capture their personalities better than we ever have with a lens. Upon return we're so happy to be back with our animal family and find our home also well cared for. We spoke with a neighbor on our first dog walk back, who complimented the demeanor the dogs had with Craig (more calm than with us) and how well cared for they were. They also even noted that Craig discovered a struggling Cardinal that he tried to medically assist the poor bird for 20 minutes the other day. A true heart of gold. It's clear that this is a calling for Craig and Chelsea and we couldn't be more grateful for the peace of mind we had while so far away. We hope they found some joy here in our neck of the woods and that we get the chance to secure their services again.

This was my first booking on Rover and I was a bit anxious about how it would go. I left for my 5 hour drive feeling my pup would be in good hands, but still a bit nervous. Before I had even gotten out of state, Liseli had provided my first update that my dog had just woken from a nap and a pic of her relaxed on the loveseat with Liseli. That was really great to see! Liseli provided a good amount of photos and updates during the two days I was out of state. I came home to a tidy house and a relaxed pup who was also tired - always a good thing! I'll be happy to have Liseli sit for us again!

She was awesome: Jimmy-Ray actually wimperred when she left. Awe...he liked her. We liked her too. Good experience.

We chose Avery because our dog is fearful of men and we wanted him to get used to being around men more. Avery won our Travis over. He patiently waited for Travis to get used to his presence. He took him on walks which Travis loves. We would definitely use Avery again. Thanks Avery for keeping our Travis while we explored the area.

Dan did a great job taking care of our animals and house. We would have him back and I highly recommend him. He sent me photos and updates daily, which I greatly appreciated.

Hannah was a life saver - I lost my original sitter at the last minute the same day I was to leave for the weekend on a trip. Not only did she respond to my last minute request with a yes but she was at my house that afternoon meeting me and the pups before I left. I came home from two relaxing days to happy exercised pups - first time using Rover and will definitely be booking with Hannah again!! highly recommend!!!

Candi took great care of our three rescue dogs and home while we were away. Our three dogs all have very different personalities and care requirements, so finding someone who can confidently meet each of their individual needs is incredibly important to us. Our youngest dog is energetic and requires plenty of exercise and engagement, while our two senior dogs need a much slower pace and extra attention. One of our seniors is a 13-year-old who is both hearing and vision impaired and has a number of behavioral quirks that come with age. He requires patience, consistency, frequent potty breaks, careful supervision outdoors, and an understanding of how to help him navigate his environment comfortably. Candi took the time to understand each dog’s routine and personality and cared for them exactly as we had hoped. Throughout our trip, she was highly responsive, sent regular photo updates, and kept us informed, which gave us peace of mind. It was clear from the photos and updates that our dogs were comfortable, happy, and relaxed in her care. When we returned home, they were content and at ease, showing how well cared for they were. She also took excellent care of our home, leaving everything in great condition. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would wholeheartedly recommend Candi to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and attentive pet sitter—especially if you have pets with special needs or unique personalities. We would gladly have her care for our dogs again.
