“Tommy was so responsive and gave such great updates while taking care of our sweet pup. He took wonderful care of her and went above and beyond to communicate and check on how she was handling spending such a long stretch alone.”


“Randy is an incredible dog sitter. He is communicative, timely, thoughtful, and just all around an asset to the Rover community. He sends plenty of pictures and updates and is incredibly patient with our Golden Retriever puppy, Frankie. I can’t recommend Randy enough!”


“Simon is great! He is always very responsive and so attentive to Chanel’s needs. He makes sure that she gets all her puppy energy out during walks and makes sure that she is well taken care of. Thanks, Simon!”


“Susan is so wonderful! Quick to respond and she sends a ton of photos. She often helps in a last minute pinch and Aries just loves her. He always has such a big smile and wag when he sees her. Strongly recommend!!”


“Karen was a wonderful dog walker for my pup Leo! She was very communicative and let me know how things were going. I hope she can come back and care for Leo again and again!!”


“We are incredibly grateful to Julia for stepping in on such short notice to care for our two senior dogs. Finding someone you can trust especially with elderly pets who have specific needs never easy, but Julia immediately made us feel at ease. She was gentle, patient, and attentive, and our dogs, Charlie and Tyson took to her right away, which says everything. She kept us updated during the walks, which gave us peace of mind, and it was clear she genuinely cared for their well-being. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to help us out, and we wouldn’t hesitate to call on her again. Thank you for treating our babies like your own.”


About: I have experience from growing up with dogs to running a military base dog shelter. From street dogs to family pets, I have cared for all personalities. My pup pup herself is a rescue from the streets of Vietnam. I am looking to stay as busy as possible during the day as I learn how to not be in the military. I love dogs and happy to play / walk often! I am not in a rush to any other job so I have a lot of time to be patient and caring for your pet based on your requirements.

“Arianna took good care walking my dog and my cousin’s dog that i was dog sitting! I requested her services last minute and she responded in a timely manner. Thank you, Arianna!”


About: Having three dogs of my own, I truly understand what it means to have a trusting person look after them when I'm away. I've had experience administering meds of all kinds as well as bandage changing when needed. I'll love on your pets as if they are my own. As a recent RIF'd federal employee, my time is currently my own. I'd love to spend time with your pets when you're unable to be there. I'm happy to provide the requisite number of walks required for each pet, or provide supervision in your yard if that's all that is required. I'll love on your pets like they're my own and will happily send you photos while you're away.

“Caroline was wonderful with Violet! She was able to fit our dog, Violet in, even though it was last minute. She was quick at communicating and gave great updates while we were away! We are very happy with her dog walking and will definitely use her in the future!”


“Bryan has a nice way with our dogs. He is very responsible and on time. The pups are excited to see him. We will continue to call on him in the future.”


“Carolina has been walking our pup for a little over a month now and she’s been great! She’s very responsive and always leaves our pup with a treat at the end of their walk. She also takes him on long, quality walks which we know he loves. Highly recommend Carolina!”


“Ilana was amazing!!! I would totally use her again with my fur baby! She alerted me that my dog wasn’t eating her food which is normal when she pours when we leave her but was happy that Ilana was paying her attention and alerting us! She was on time, reliable and trustworthy!”


“Katie is fantastic!! She is super responsive and very flexible; she’s more than accommodating working around our hectic schedule! You can tell she is a dog lover through and through and she is super sweet and patient with our shy dog. We are lucky to have found such a great sitter in our area!”


About: I have loved and cared for dogs since I was a kid, as my family raised, fostered, and cared for sheepdogs. I am obsessed with dogs and like to say I’m a dog whisperer 😆. But really, I’ll care for your dog as if they’re my own. Currently, I am working from home and have my own hours. I am available to walk, play ball, or let your dog outside at any time. First, I have a 3.5 year old golden retriever female who is spayed, calm, and I’d say introverted. She loves other dogs but isn’t rambunctious. Secondly, I live in a quadruplex with a fenced front yard and a personal backyard. My neighbor has two sweet dogs who play with mine in the front yard all day. If your pup loves other dogs and wants some play time, I have the perfect environment.

About: Hi there! I’m Sheree, a lifelong dog lover and proud pup parent to a highly active 2.5-year-old golden doodle named Tucker. I am passionate about providing attentive, trustworthy care. Whether your pup loves active play, long walks, or just some calm companionship, I tailor each visit to their unique needs and personality. I treat every dog like family, ensuring they feel loved and comfortable in my care. I look forward to meeting your four-legged best friend! P.S: I offer boarding, at this time, I typically host hypoallergenic dogs, just to ensure a comfortable environment for everyone in my home due to mild allergies. I work from home, and live in old town, Alexandria. Pet care is part of my daily routine, I make sure every dog gets plenty of attention, and exercise. I provide loving, attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. For in home visits, I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable and happy. Also, I feel comfortable giving medications.

Rachel G.Star Sitter
“Rachel is the neighbor we go to first when we need pet care. She has dogs of her own, so she knows how to calm an anxious dog (yep, we have one), love up a needy one (yep, we have one), give medication, and clean up messes. Rachel has nursed sick dogs, played with a growing Dobie, and helped us search for our escape artist. She was let go by DOGE, so she's available most of the time. She's bright, level-headed, and the kind of person I want to care for my animals (we have cats, too). I know you will want her to care for your furry friends, too.”

Kristina F.
“Kristina is amazing with dogs! She has watched and walked my large dog Rocky multiple times and he is always tired and happy afterwards. She really goes the extra mile to make sure Rocky is taken care of- she even monitored him at last minute notice when I was out of town and he got unexpectedly sick and my original dog sitter couldn't stay home with him all day. Rocky and I have found our go-to Rover with Kristina!”


Sheree I.
“Sheree is a responsible and proactive dog owner that loves her fur-baby and takes the best care for him. Every time I see Tucker, he clearly exudes his love for his mom in ways doodles are known for. She will surely take great care of any dog she watches. She has years of experience watching her friends’ dog alongside her own, so she can handle any dog with ease. She is courteous, respectful, and attentive to detail, so any special instructions you have for your dog or your residence, be assured she will follow them. Her schedule flexibility is optimal for working with you on taking care of your pet.”

I forgot to update my address after a move and Gwen was so sweet about it. She went out of her way for Sam even though it took a lot more of her time due to arriving at the wrong address first. She still took him on a long walk and spent quality time with him. You can tell she truly cares!!

Kristen is wonderful She treated my dog like her own. She made sure he stayed in the shade. My dog loved her. Definitely will have her walk him on a regular basis. She made me feel in ease, sent plenty of updates and photos. Thank you for taking such a great care of my baby

We enlisted Andrea’s dog walking services during a time of transition as we prepared for a move, and she was so wonderful with our dog, Todd! Her love and care for Todd really came through in her detailed report cards each day, and he was always so happy and healthy when I returned home from work. Thank you, Andrea!
