House Sitting in Whitlock

I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Danielle. She was absolutely incredible from beginning to end, and I genuinely don’t think we could have found a better person to care for our pets. I was extremely anxious about leaving them, especially because our dog, Merlin, can be anxious when we’re away and requires a little more patience, attention, and understanding than the average dog. Our cats also have their own personalities, routines, and anxieties, so trusting someone else with all three of them was a really big deal for me. Danielle completely put my mind at ease. She followed every single care instruction to a tee and was so attentive to all of the little details that matter to us. More importantly, though, she treated our animals with so much genuine love, patience, and kindness. She took the time to make Merlin feel comfortable and secure, kept up with his routines, gave him plenty of attention, and handled his anxiety beautifully. She even handled his grooming incredibly well, which was another aspect of his care that meant a lot to us. Merlin is a Samoyed with a lot of fur and grooming him can require patience and a gentle approach, and Danielle did an amazing job making sure he was comfortable while still taking such great care of his coat. I was genuinely impressed by how confidently and patiently she handled him. She was equally wonderful with our cats and allowed them to warm up to her at their own pace while making sure they felt safe, loved, and cared for. Seeing how comfortable they became with her was incredibly reassuring. Danielle also went above and beyond when it came to communication. She sent us frequent updates and so many wonderful photos, told us how everyone was doing, and gave me an incredible amount of reassurance throughout the entire time we were away. She seemed to understand without me even having to explain just how hard it was for me to leave them, and her updates allowed me to actually relax and enjoy our trip because I knew our babies were in such capable and loving hands. What stood out most was that this never felt like someone simply “watching our pets.” Danielle genuinely cared about them. You can tell when someone is just completing a list of instructions versus when someone is truly invested in making your animals feel happy, comfortable, and loved, and Danielle was absolutely the latter. The amount of care and compassion she showed them meant more to us than I can adequately put into words. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and a home that had been treated with the utmost respect. Knowing that Merlin and the cats had someone so loving and dependable with them while we were gone was priceless. If you are an anxious pet parent, have pets with specific routines or needs, or simply want someone you can completely trust with the animals you consider family, I cannot recommend Danielle highly enough. She exceeded every expectation we had. We are beyond grateful for everything she did for us and our fur babies, and we would trust her with them again in a heartbeat. She is truly an absolute gem, and anyone would be incredibly lucky to have her caring for their pets. We definitely look forward to having her stay again❤️

Nathan was so flexible letting us add an additional night. Frequent videos and updates of our dogs. Our very energetic lab was left very tired after a fun weekend with Nathan!

Meaghan and Kyle were great! They watched our pup Ollie during our wedding and were so accommodating. They helped manage him through pictures and then watched him at their home for the night. It was great knowing he was safe and happy!

Dakota did an excellent job with my two dogs while I was gone for eight days. Our older dog has dementia and their younger dog is a dachshund so they have different energy levels. Dakota is able to care for both of them in the way that they need. And also care for the house so when I get home everything’s in order. Highly recommend Dakota.

Asking Star to watch our dogs was one of the best vacation decisions I have made. She checked in regularly, gave them so much love and made it possible for them to stay home while we were away, greatly reducing their anxiety and mine. If given the opportunity, I know our puppies would love to have the chance to visit again 😊

Anna is the best sitter I’ve had since using Rover! She communicates and sends updates often! She’s thoughtful and takes great care of my dog while I’m away! Couldn’t ask for a better sitter!

Bryn was great with my dog. Very easy to work with. Hope to be able to use her again!

Megan stayed with my two kitties for a few days over Christmas. I will 100% be asking her to watch my girls again. She was went above and beyond, sending me pics and updates frequently. She ensured that Lemon and Pepper were cared for. Pepper likes to hide sometimes during mealtimes, but Megan made sure that Pepper didn’t miss a meal, which I so appreciate! I couldn’t recommend her enough! Thank you so much again, Megan!

Great service! Very responsible and responsive pet sitter. Took great care of our dogs and guinea pigs.

Beth did a fantastic job housesitting our 3 cats and 2 dogs for the long weekend. She fulfilled all my standards as a neat-freak / OCD pet owner, which is truly saying something! Upon our return, our home was in perfect condition and all of the furries were content and well-cared for. She was very communicative and flexible throughout both the booking and pet-sitting processes. We highly recommend her!

Mikayla is the best! She’s reliable, has great communication, and always sends the best pictures of our dogs. Our dogs seem to love her and have the best time when she’s here. We will continue to book her over and over again!
