House Sitting in Waverly

Kristin took very good care of Belle for a few days in my home. Belle is an anxious dog but warmed up quickly to Kristin. She took her for walks, kept me updated and sent pictures. She administered her meds as directed and kept everything clean. Belle is missing her already.

Mika took wonderful care of our pets and home! She even did the laundry and left us freshly baked zucchini bread. She was very communicative and the pets were very happy when we returned! Would absolutely recommend.

Angela was phenomenal. She didn’t just watch our pets, she cared for them like they were her own. Merlin got his walks, meds, playtime, and grooming (shedding + nails!), and our cats were relaxed and happy when we got home. She kept the house tidy, vacuumed fur, and maintained the litter box the entire week. We couldn’t ask for better. She’s our go‑to sitter moving forward.

Another set of wonderful stays. The kids needed someone with them during the day while I was out of town and my spouse was at work. Pictures every day, and I know they were happy. I'm always content when I know Kaylah will be over.

Staci was a wonderful sitter for my senior cat, Cecil. CeCe needs medication daily, and also likes to spend some time outside in the back yard during the day. I received lots of pictures and came home to a clean house and happy kitty! I would gladly have Staci here again in the future! :)

Kelli had 4 dogs from 3 months still potty training to age 14 to Care for. She was great with the puppy and took her to the vet for us and accommodated our older one who was on medicine also. This was her first time house sitting for us and we were very happy.

We were new to Rover and came across Matt and Jessica. We have three dogs- Nia a 7 year old springer and two hound dogs- Daisy age 3 and Sadie age 1. We were gone for 6 days. To say that I get nervous leaving my dogs/babies is an understatement. Nia has medical issues and Jess did a great job handling and giving Nia her meds. Nia was so relaxed with Jess- she played ball with her. This is unheard of. When we’ve left Nia in the past she sulks, doesn’t eat/eats far less and certainly doesn’t relax enough to play ball. To me, this speaks to Jessica’s mild manner and calm she brings to the animals she watches. Jess stayed in our home- was 1000% trustworthy and kept the house neat and tidy. Jess sent daily pictures and communicated effectively and timely. I would strongly recommend Jess and Matt!!!

Amelia was great! She stayed with our dog for a week, soon after Tiana was adopted and still in her adjustment period. She was really easy to communicate with and Tiana loved her!

Cate did a great job caring for Benny. She sent us lots of pictures and kept us updated since when we left he was quite sad. Cate was able to cheer him up and we came home to a very happy boy!

Julia was so great! So communicative and I could tell she really cared about our animals. The house was exactly as we left it if not enhanced a bit ☺️ We would totally book her services again!

Due to my "go to" sitter moving town, I needed to find a new home for my babies while I'm out of town. My son and I travel a lot so typical boarding/kennel is not my favorite place for the doggies. Arya was very responsive when setting up the stay. My dogs tend to forget their training when meeting someone new, and I appreciated that Arya immediately responded to my goldendoodle the way I want him to when he jumps - he turned his back. Within 2 minutes Ayra had Marlin responding as he should (too often people tell me, "oh, it's okay" and allow Marlin to misbehave. I know this is also on me...but to have help, helps!). The dogs were walked regularly and I was given many, many videos. I had some questions about the dogs after pick up, and Arya responded immediately. He also texted to check in to see how they were doing, which was great. I'd absolutely use Arya again for shorter trips; I'm not sure about longer ones because the dogs appear to spend much time in the crate. It's not a negative per se - and I trusted Arya completely with them - it's just that that stay is very different from their lifestyle they've experienced during boarding, which is a large yard in which to run free, and generally only crating at night for sleep and when my previous sitter would leave the house.
