Having Heather at the house with our senior dog made for an stress-free weekend away. The hose was spotless and our pup was happy and chill. Thank you, Heather!

Sade was so compassionate with Max and not rushing him to get to be comfortable with her and gave him time and space. It also helped that Max was in his own home and Sade took care of my place as It were own. Would love to book again with her for future dates.

Nichole was amazing! Great communication and gave us plenty of pics while we were gone to let us know our pups were well taken care of. We’d definitely like to have her be our regular sitter.

We couldn't be happier with the exceptional care Toby received from Kaitlyn! From the moment we met, it was evident that she had a genuine love for animals. Toby was not just looked after, but showered with attention, walks, and playtime. The daily photo updates were a delightful touch, providing us with peace of mind and a chance to see Toby thriving in a home away from home. Kaitlyn ensured that Toby's routine was maintained. We highly recommend their services to anyone seeking a reliable, caring, and dedicated dog sitter.

Jessica and Ernie ? were SO GREAT for our boys and great to our home. We got pictures and lots of updates. She left the house spotless and went above and beyond to keep everything in our boys' world as business as usual as possible while we were away. We know when we take a longer trip they'll be in great hands! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wow, what a terrific dog sitter and dog walker. Eric is a trustworthy and reliable person. He met our little dog and immediately bonded with him. We have used his services since we moved to DC two years ago and feel blessed. Eric helps us with dog walks and dog sitting. He is very thorough and takes notes of any issues, treat schedules, or favorite toys. He also sends us lovely updates with photos of our little cockapoo. We are so happy with Eric he deserves 6 stars as a rating. Thank you, Eric!

Jenna was great! It was our first time using a sitter from Rover for an overnight stay while we were away for a long weekend. She was able to come do a meet and greet with short notice and was so attentive to our needs and instructions! We have a very large friendly dog and she was not hesitant at all. She gave frequent pics and updates. Our cat and dog were relaxed and happy when we returned. We felt at ease knowing she was at our house with our pets :)

Stacey was great and we look forward to using her again in the future! She was easy to communicate with and was very responsive. She took great care of our pups and our house while we were away. We got lots of pictures of our pups and I felt very confident they were in good hands. She was patient with one of our pups who can take a bit to warm up to new people. She was extremely respectful of our home and left it in excellent condition. She brought in packages for us and even offered to water our plants.

Max was fantastic with Gunther. He took the time to do a few meet and greets to get my dog comfortable with him and had a confident, quiet demeanor that made it possible for Gunther to not be scared of him. He left the house in the condition I left it, and Gunther had fun!

Nathan was awesome. We have 2 dogs —one 13 and one 5 mos—so they can be challenging due to different exercise levels. Our puppy, Fitz is also very timid —doesn’t like a lot of people and other dogs but he warmed up to Nathan pretty quickly. Nathan was diligent and followed our instructions on feeding and medication to the letter. Nathan stayed at our home for 5 days while we were out of town and we came home to two pretty chill dogs who were sad to see Nathan leave!! We will be booking him again!!

Mary did a great job with our two dogs!!! They have very different eating and exercise needs as Jake is almost 16 Y.O. and Bella is only 5 Y.O. Mary did a great job handling their diet and giving them plenty of walks. We came home to happy and healthy dogs. Thank you, Mary!!!
