About: Since I was a kid I have been surrounded by animals: cats, dogs, parrots, turtles, hamsters… I have lots of experience with many animals and find joy in caring for them. I moved to DC recently and I truly miss having pets. I’m hoping Rover will help me to spend some time with little cuties. Moreover, I work remotely and I love to be outside, my schedule is flexible. I am available weekday mornings, evenings, short periods during the day and weekends. I love to spend time playing with and getting to know new pets. I am reliable and will feed, walk, clean up and look after your family members. I have cared for cats, dogs, hamsters, fish, turtles, and birds so my experience is extensive. I am able to adjust to your needs whether they involve endless zoomies or midday naps.

“Luciana was amazing with our puppy! Communication was excellent, she sent videos and updates during the stay. My dog loved her and was happy to meet her. I will definitely book again.”


“Leila came to my rescue w/ my last minute request for doggy daycare today. She responded quickly and made my Zoe feel so welcome at drop off. Zoe did not want to leave when I picked her up, which is a first. Leila is a dog whisperer! Thank you for your kindness and the adorable photos. Immediately had peace of mind knowing Zoe was in great care w/ a loving sitter. My girl Zoe can be a bit high maintenance but Leila never made me feel like an inconvenience. I highly recommend Leila to care for your fur baby.”

About: I have 4 years of experience as a reliable and caring dog walker, providing daily walks, exercise, and companionship for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I prioritize each pet’s safety, well-being, and routine, and have built strong relationships with both pets and their owners through consistent, trustworthy care. I am a recent grad school graduate and I am available to walk your dog when it fits your schedule. I have a flexible schedule to help walk, watch and care for your dog but I am mainly available during the weekdays. I care for the dogs I watch as if they were my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable at all times. I follow their individual routines, including feeding, walking, and any special instructions from their owners. I provide plenty of playtime, attention, and affection, and I always monitor their behavior to ensure they're happy and healthy. Whether it’s a quick walk or extended pet-sitting, I aim to create a stress-free experience for both the dogs and their owners.

About: Hi, I am a stay-at-home dog mom for the summer! My boyfriend and I have a lifelong love for dogs of all sizes and breeds. We both grew up caring for pets and I’ve also volunteered at an animal shelter, where I helped with everything from giving love and attention to assisting with hygiene needs. Now, we’re excited to open our home to care for your furry family members. We live in a clean, cozy apartment in Ballston near Quincy and Oakland Parks—perfect for long strolls and playtime in nature. Whether it’s fetch, walks, or cuddles on the couch, we make sure your dog feels at home and gets plenty of love and attention. We have a flexible schedule to give your pup the care and companionship they need throughout the day. We’re committed to keeping up with your dog’s regular routines and providing a safe, calm, and happy environment. Whether you’re looking for boarding, walking, or just a loving place for your dog to spend the day, we can’t wait to meet your pet and give them the care they deserve! I am currently available throughout the week and some weekends. I will be available mostly during the week and the weekends for walks, home visits, and boarding. I have a safe, cozy, dog-friendly apartment along with a playful and friendly pup who loves other dogs. I will provide a loving and playful experience with your companion, treating them like my own.

“Amy saved the day for my chiweenie, Willar and I. Her pup Winston is a such a cute little guy and very mild mannered.
