House Sitting Anacostia

“Keisha saved our Christmas plans! When our sitter canceled last minute, it was such a relief when Keisha was so willing to do a same-day meet and greet, and stay with my elderly dog for the week of Christmas. She was responsive the whole time, and we returned to a happy dog and clean house. She even treated Marley to a Christmas present, which was so sweet!”

“Russell took such great care of our dog while we were out of town, and was by far the most communicative pup sitter we’ve had. He kept us updated on everything they were up to which made it easy to not have to worry about how she was doing. Would definitely recommend to others and book him again next time we’re going out of town.”

“Isabelle exceeded our expectations as a pet sitter! From the moment she arrived, our dog Max felt completely at ease with her, which says a lot about her natural way with animals. She kept us updated with regular messages and adorable photos that gave us complete peace of mind knowing Max was happy and well-cared for. What really impressed us was her attention to detail - not only did she take excellent care of Max, but she also left our home spotless.”

“Niani took exceptional care of our two pups and home. She was patient with our anxious girl and handled medications with no issues. Highly recommend her! She’ll be at the top of our list for future trips!”

“Alayza was very attentive and patient with my pup! Updates and communication were quick and constant. My flight home was delayed but she accommodated the unexpected schedule change. Will definitely be asking for her expertise again! My pup absolutely loved her.”

“Mariaam was so lovely with Daisy! She was punctual, followed all of my directions (Daisy was on medication after a few very unexpected vet visits!) and was patient with her during her stubbornness of not wanting to be outside. I sincerely appreciated her being flexible with us and Daisy was well cared for and seemed to have had a great day!”

“Shannon was amazing with my dog Cash while I was away for a few days! Shannon provided daily pictures and videos, as well as updates as to how he was doing. I was very impressed with how detailed she was in her updates, and I didn’t worry at all about him while I was away! I highly recommend Shannon!”

“Fantastic kitty sitter for our two snuggly kitties. Kim came and watched our home and our cats for 2+ weeks while we traveled abroad. She was extremely responsive and communicative during the trip, letting us know how everyone was doing. Upon our return our house was very clean and tidy, kitties were happy and looked well taken care of. We could not have been more thankful for her taking such great care of everything. I would highly recommend her and her adorable puppy!”

Jennifer G.

“Mark was amazing with our dog, going above and beyond with him when we were out of town. We have a high energy dog and mark took him on several long walks. He was really great about sending photos too! And he took great care of our cat , checking on her multiple times . We look forward to working with him again soon!”

“Antonique was incredibly kind, thoughtful, and communicative. My cats were wonderfully taken care of while I was away, and she kept my house spotless during her stay. Would recommend her to anyone who needed a cat sitter!”

Heather W.

“Both of our girls warmed up to Jayme — his care made them come out and about, and his frequent updates made me feel assured that they were doing great while we were gone. I highly recommend trusting him with your home and critters!”

“This is Andrew's second time with Stephanie pet sitting and I know it will not be his last! He was calm and clearly well-cared for when we got home. Andrew is blind so it's not easy for him to have new adventures but Stephanie kept him occupied with massages, games and lots of affection. He is not crazy about taking walks but Stephanie somehow got him to take a 45 minute walk! She sent us detailed updates and funny, adorable photos. I feel very comfortable with Stephanie. We were able to take our trip without worry. Plus, the house was beautiful when we got home.”

Julia S.

“Imani took good care of our dog during our time away from home. She kept us well informed at all times and pay special attention to some health issues he was having. She is a lifesaver!”

Lourdes S.

“Taylor watched our two kittens while we were away. Since I had never had cats before, I appreciated her knowledge and the good care she provided while we were traveling. She sent us pictures and daily updates. I also appreciated the good care she took of our house. I'm happy to hire Taylor again!”

Giselle A.

“Edmond did a great job keeping me upset with lots of information about what he and Hobbs did, sent me plenty of pictures and Hobbs loved him! Would highly recommend!”

Adam B.

“Karima took excellent care of our dog Goose and our apartment while we were away for over a week. She was caring, responsive, and helpful throughout her stay. She sent us daily updates and was very professional. She left our apartment clean and Goose absolutely loved her! I would definitely book with Karima again and suggest her for any of your dog sitting needs.”

Kelly W.

“John did great with my Great Dane! My pup is an emotional guy and John did a great job sticking to his routines and adapting where necessary. He was proactive about thinking through my dog’s needs, like adjusting the walk schedule when there was an extreme heat warning for the day.”

About: As a dog lover I bring gentle loving care to all dog friends! I can also work on training and exercise with high energy dogs. I volunteer with the local SPCA and I do full-time and temporary dog fostering with a local dog rescue. In December 2025 we adopted Radar (foster fail!) who is a happy go lucky Labrador mix who is always in the mood to play and would love to make a new friend! I work remotely Monday & Friday so I’m able to provide adequate walking, interaction and attention. I’m active and can provide all levels of exercise and play. This includes walking, running, potty breaks, indoor enrichment with puzzles, lick mats and toys. I also have a gated play area where we can play fetch. I simply enjoy being around dogs and will provide extra care such as brushing and cuddles. I treat any pet entering my home as my own and extend that same love and attention to them. I prioritize their needs as well as their owners to ensure everyone is comfortable with the experience and to give my new dog friend a vacation while their owner is away! Dog sitting is just as exciting for me as it can be for a dog getting to meet new people and do fun things!

“Brian was amazing. We had a last-minute request over the holidays, and he truly saved us. He stayed at our home and took excellent care of our dog, King, who isn’t always the easiest, but Brian stepped in confidently and made it work without issue. Communication was great; he was always responsive and kept us at ease while we were away. We came home to a happy dog and a house left in great condition. We would absolutely book Brian again and highly recommend him to anyone on Rover.”

About: I’ve watched and walked dogs since I was a kid, I’m always attentive, and protective of animals. Cats and dogs are naturally drawn to me because I have great energy. I’m a student but I’m available to care for your pets throughout the week, and I’m always available on the weekends. Or whenever needed. Caring for pets in my home or a client’s home starts with understanding each animal’s routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any medical requirements. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean and safe environment, and plenty of attention and affection. I also follow any specific instructions from the owner, such as administering medication, maintaining training consistency, and keeping the pet comfortable while the owner is away.
