House Sitting in Newington

Michael was exceptional as an in-house sitter for our two Labrador Retrievers. Both pups are just under two years old, are quite energetic and required regular walks and exercise. Michael provided this in spades and provided regular updates with accompanying photos. The dogs were clearly in their element. Michael arrived on time, came and went easily in our home and left no traces beyond a nice thank you note and small gift. We can recommend him without reservation; he would be our absolute first choice for an in-home sitter should we be traveling again without our two companions.

We will be using Kate again! She was wonderful with Charlie and shared a lot of pictures during her day here with him.

Booked her last minute for two nights and she was awesome. She took great care of my dog, made sure he got his walks, food, and plenty of company. I told her I didn’t need updates but she still sent pics and kept me in the loop, which I really appreciated. Super responsive and easy to communicate with. Definitely recommend!

Julianne was professional and competent. She asked all the right questions and had clear and frequent communication with us. We had no hesitations having her watch our pups for a weekend.

I love that Melissa loves my cats! She takes such good care of them that I never have to worry about them when I’m gone.

Kristen did a wonderful job looking after my 2 dogs, one of whom has medical needs that include meds 2x daily and a diaper! Came home after 11 days away to a clean house and happy pups 🥰

elise was flexible and responsive and i think my dog likes her more than he likes me now. 10/10 would recommend.

Claire is the best Rover sitter! I’m pretty sure my cats like her more than me, and I’m okay with that. It means I don’t worry about them being cared for while I’m away.

It was our first time leaving our pets for an overnight. We were very scepticale and anxious about leaving them. We are crazy pet parents with high expectations . James blew our expectations out of the water and made the entire process stress free! Great man and even greater to our pets. He did everything that was asked and went above and beyond to make sure not only our animals but we ourselves felt at ease and stress free. Great communication skills and was willing to accommodate all requests we asked of him. Incredible sitter and we will be rebooking anytime we have an event.

I recently moved to the east coast and I haven’t left my 2 year old rescue shepherd mix home alone before, Leah put me at ease right away when I had to leave him for a work trip. She came over to meet him, gave me her sweatshirt so he could get used to her smell, brought him a pup cup (he’s very susceptible to bribes 🙃) and this was all before the day she even watched him! She took him to the park and all sorts of adventures and I was getting so many updates, I swear he didn’t even want to come home to me after lol. I hate to leave a good review because I want to keep her for myself selfishly 😂 but she’s the best and will definitely be hitting her up again to hang with Benny!

Patrick was fabulous! I have a dog that specializes in shenanigans and he did wonderfully with her. Thank you, Patrick! Dogs were all happy and healthy and well- exercised.

Tati is phenomenal with our little crew; it’s clear from the photos that she sends that our pups truly enjoy her company. Thank you, Tati, for keeping our fur babies safe & happy while we’re away!

Erin & Amanda are amazing! We had no doubt that our dogs were well taken care of. We felt totally comfortable leaving them. Would definitely use again in the future!
