“Donna was great. She treated my dog like he was her own. I felt extremely confident that Guinness was being very well taken care of. Guinness came home very happy but tired from all the fun he had playing with Donna's dogs. I will definitely use Donna and her services again. I'm very happy. I found her thank you so much.”

“Thalya did great with my pup Apollo! She took him out for long walks to get his energy out and sent frequent updates and pictures letting me know how things were going. Highly recommended! I felt at ease knowing my pup was in good hands.”

“Mildred is the best. My fur baby absolutely loves his time there and gets so excited when dropping him off. She is reliable and we will definitely contact her first. So good!”

“Cherissa and Ricardo were great with my 4yr old pup. They took very good care of him and sent pictures of him and let me know he was doing great. I would recommend them to anyone to watch their dog! Great job thank you!”

“Brandie treated our gal like family! we dont live local but if we did we would book with her again and again. Millie didnt want to leave! Great updates and great space for the pups to play!”

“Absolute peace of mind through the entire experience. This was only the third time with a sitter and second boarding my Whiskey dog overnight; but never have I felt as content as when he was with Judy, her wonderful family & beautiful home. Was able to completely enjoy my vacation knowing he was cared for as one of her own. I really can’t thank her enough for what that contentment was worth to me. To top it off she’s so nice!! Had pushed the date forward a day at the last minute, she was totally understanding and went with the flow. Just thank you!!!! I know Whiskey dog misses his new friends already =^_^=”

“Jeff graciously accepted my desperate last minute request after another Rover sitter left me high and dry and agreed to take care of my dog for a full month with no prior introduction. I have a 4yo GSP with a lot of anxiety, especially when he’s separated from his mama. But my boy Max bonded with him immediately and seemed totally at ease in his new home. Jeff put up with my Velcro dog clinging to him and demanding attention all day long with no complaints. It was such a relief to know that Max was in such good hands while I was away for so long, and I couldn’t be more grateful.”

“Matthew and his family are excellent dog caregivers! They have a very large fenced yard for the dogs to play. They are very attentive and sent many photos! I have an older newly adopted dog, they were so sweet and gentle with her. I highly recommend them!!!”

“Volha and Christian were easy to work with, well prepared, and attentive to details. Volha sent photos each day with status updates that made us feel at ease. Our puppy was clearly enjoying his stay. She also asked a lot of questions proactively up front and even had some of the supplies on hand that we forgot to pack. I'd definitely send my puppy to Volha again.”

“Cristian took care of my two dogs for a stay of 8 days. He kept us updated with pictures each day and it looked like they had a lovely time and were well cared for. Drop off and pickup were also very easy”

“Amruta was incredible! She made us feel totally at ease leaving our best friend, Doc, with her over the holidays. Easy drop-off and pick-up. Lots of updates, pictures, and videos. We felt confident that she took excellent care of Doc, and were able to relax and enjoy our trip. Highly recommended!”

“Loretta is great! She always makes sure to send pictures of my boy and he always looks like he is either having fun with other pups or comfortably snuggled up. I know he is in good hands with her.”

“Maria (and family) were lifesavers and saved our trip by having availability last minute when another sitter canceled on us. Our dogs looked so happy and loved while we were gone. Definetly recommend and look forward to using her again!”

“Kenneth was absolutely amazing with my Biggie!! His communication is impeccable and care is exclusive! He really took extra steps to make sure my pet was comfortable and at ease! I recommend him without a doubt.”

“This was my first experience with getting dog sitter for my dog. I was very relaxed and comfortable when I met Brittany and loved the fact that we communicated about my dog and she sent me some pictures on how she was doing. I definitely recommend using Brittany and will use her again 😊”

“My dogs were spoiled And clearly enjoyed themselves making themselves at hom. Annie and Gabe are so friendly and dog knowledgeable. I will definitely bring my fur babies back to them.”

About: With 15+ years of professional animal care experience, I’ve done it all — from leading 20+ dog playgroups to training puppies and snuggling senior pups and caring for cats with special needs. 🐾 I absolutely love what I do and treat every pet like my own! Whether it’s a fun walk, a good game of fetch, or cozy cuddle time, I make sure your furry friend feels happy, loved, and totally at ease while you’re away. Reliable, upbeat, and animal-obsessed — I can’t wait to meet your pet! ❤️ I currently work from home, which makes it easy to fit pet care into my day. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, feedings, and play breaks. Since I’m home most of the day, I can give each pet consistent attention and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. IN MY HOME- First 3 photos in my gallery are of my property. I live on 5 private acres surrounded by woods, which gives dogs plenty of space to safely run, play, and explore. There’s also a clean swimmable pond on the property for dogs who enjoy swimming and cooling off on warm days. For pups who can’t run freely or need a bit more structure, I have two indoor/outdoor kennels available. Each kennel has a cozy heated indoor area with comfortable bedding and an outdoor section that’s fully covered for shade and weather protection. The use of kennels is completely optional and only done with the owner’s consent — most dogs love having both options for play and relaxation. My goal is always to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while enjoying plenty of fresh air and outdoor time. IN YOUR HOME- When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always make sure to respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s space. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, walking, medications, and any house rules to keep things consistent and stress-free for the pet. I take time to make sure each animal feels comfortable and loved — whether that means extra playtime, calm companionship, or simply keeping them company while they rest. I also keep the home tidy, make sure everything is secure, and send regular updates and photos so owners can relax knowing their pets are happy and cared for.
“We were so grateful for Mario who helped us with this last minute accommodation for our high energy puppy! He happily took on the challenge of watching our endless, bouncing ball of energy and shared lots of updates throughout the weekend to keep our minds at ease. His communication was excellent and our dog returned happy and tired.”

Arlington dog parents share their Rover experiences
A true dog lover—kind, caring, and attentive. The home is warm and welcoming, and the dogs are friendly. My dog usually gets overwhelmed when there are other dogs around, but he fit right in and felt comfortable. There’s plenty of space both inside and outside for dogs to relax, play, and enjoy their stay away from home.

Amruta watched our two Frenchies for a long weekend while we were out of town. She sent regular updates and did an amazing job overall. It was very clear from the photos she sent and their demeanor when we got home that they were very comfortable with her. We would absolutely work with her again in the future!

Mildred and her family are wonderful people and take great care of the pups that stay with them. From the beginning they put my wife and I at ease when we had the meet and greet. They are knowledgeable on dogs and their behavior. During the stay, Mildred sent us daily updates which included pictures. She was great at responding whenever we reached out. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a great sitter.

Volha and Cristian were great. Our regular sitter was out of town and we were so happy to have found Volha and Cristian to watch our pups for the week. Volha was communicative without being overbearing and we loved all the photos of them enjoying their stay. Would highly recommend them!

Catherine was so wonderful with our 2 dogs. We had never left our pups with anyone and we were a bit worried. Catherine kept in touch and sent pictures which really helped ease our mind. The dogs were so comfortable with her and I will definitely use her again if needed.
