“Joe made us feel so comfortable, from start to finish! Our guys have never stayed with anyone but family, and they left Joe’s like they’d known him forever. We couldn’t be more happy with our choice and plan on booking over and over again! Also, big shout out to Mr. Watson! He is the sweetest pup you will ever meet and welcomed new friends like they were part of his home. Thanks for everything, Joe and Watson!”

About: I had a dog named Buddy that I loved deeply for 16 years. Buddy passed away two years ago and it has been difficult moving on without him.I am looking for opportunities to dogsit for companionship and an excuse to be more active. I have dogsat for family many times and have experience caring for a range of ages and breeds. I am most familiar with caring for senior dogs. I work fully remote and will be able to be with your baby throughout the day. Please consider me you new sitter! Pet care fits into my daily routine, since I work from home, I’m able to take care of the dog during the day and night. I typically wake up pretty early and keep a regimented schedule throughout the day. I make sure the dog is walked. I make sure that I spend a little time playing with them if they’re older dogs and I spend a little time rubbing them or petting them. Some dogs don’t like all of that so you really have to pay attention to what type of dog you’re getting. Luckily I love all dogs so it’s all fun for me.
About: I’m a huge dog lover and would love to take care of your baby! I grew up with/around dogs and have been pet sitting my friends’ dogs for years.

I always send lots of updates and photos cuz I know how important to me when I’m away from my pup! I work from home full time so your dog won’t be alone all day. I usually take my dog Junie out at least once during the work day but we can adjust based on your pup’s needs! I want your pet to feel at home! He/she will be allowed on the furniture as long as you allow that at home (don’t want to build any bad habits 😊). Junie and I love long walks before and after work and we’d be happy to have your dog join us. There is a dog park about a 10 min walk away that we got to pretty frequently as well. If your baby is more of a couch potato, we can make that work too! My dog, Junie, is very go with the flow and will be happy to do whatever your dog wants to do!

“Theresa was amazing! Rosie had a great stay with her and T'Challa. Everything went perfectly, I'm so grateful that Theresa took such good care of Rosie while I visited the National Mall.”

“We’ve had June watch our puppy for many months now and I can’t believe I haven’t sung her praises until now. June has been the best dog sitter and 3rd parent to our dog! She’s communicative, helpful and as a new puppy parent, very helpful in reinforcing training (we think she’s better behaved at Junes!).”

“Melanie was so wonderful with my foster dog Betty! Melanie was attentive to her needs, really responsive, and able to work with me at short notice. Betty will definitely be coming back to hang until she finds her furever home!”

Kaylyn is a fantastic dog-sitter. She was communicative, kind, and attentive to our wonderful puppy - even on short notice. If she’s available to watch your dog, congratulations, and no need to look further - you have found a safe and fun sitter to take care of your pet!

Alicia was amazing! She was so accommodating and agreed to watch Pico on very short notice. She provided great photo updates throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind. Her and Hazel gave Pico the best day, and he came home completely exhausted (in the best way!). So grateful for the amazing care and service. We would absolutely book with Alicia again!

Joe made us feel so comfortable, from start to finish! Our guys have never stayed with anyone but family, and they left Joe’s like they’d known him forever. We couldn’t be more happy with our choice and plan on booking over and over again! Also, big shout out to Mr. Watson! He is the sweetest pup you will ever meet and welcomed new friends like they were part of his home. Thanks for everything, Joe and Watson!

Melanie is an excellent dog sitter for our pup. She’s very responsive during the booking process and is very good about communicating drop off and pick up times. Peanut butter always comes home happy and relaxed after staying with Melanie. We appreciate how wonderful she is at taking care of our pet and will continue booking her services in the future.

Theresa was wonderful! Milan loved spending the day with her and her pup, T’Challa. She kept us updated throughout the day with messages and pictures, which gave us great peace of mind! She was very attentive to his needs. Milan enjoyed walks, plenty of attention, and a warm, welcoming environment. Thank you so much!

Imogen was fantastic with Rosie! She was proactive, detail-oriented, and communicative, sending regular updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind. Rosie got long walks and trips to the dog park, and she came home very happy! The care and attention Imogen gave her was evident throughout. Highly recommend Imogen to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive dog sitter!

I cannot recommend Melissa enough! From the very first booking, she has been reliable, communicative, and incredibly attentive to my dog’s needs. The updates, photos, and videos she sends always give me peace of mind and make it clear that my puppy is not just being watched, he is genuinely being cared for and loved. Archie absolutely adores her and gets excited every time he sees her. She creates a safe, fun, and engaging environment, and it’s obvious that she treats every dog in her care like family. Melissa goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. What truly sets her apart is the extra effort and thoughtfulness she puts into caring for the dogs. For Archie’s first birthday, she hosted a birthday celebration with the other dogs in her care. Seeing him celebrated with treats, friends, and adorable photos was such a great feeling and meant so much to our family. It was one of those moments that reminded me how fortunate we are to have found someone who genuinely loves what she does. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, trustworthy, responsive, and will care for your dog as if they were her own, look no further. We are so grateful to have found her, and Archie is always excited for his next visit.

Literally the best dog sitter ever!!! Dexter came home tired, and a tired dog is a good dog! This was my first time using a Rover sitter and I had such a great experience. Lots of pics and updates ◡̈ I honestly don’t even want to ever go with anyone other than Kaylee!
