“Karalynn is fantastic! She goes above and beyond to help us and our dogs absolutely love her. She has been super flexible with the my crazy schedule and has always left our house/pups better than she found them. I am so very grateful that we found her on Rover—Karalynn is a true lifesaver! 🤗🩷”

“Summer was such a pleasure to work with! She was very communicative and easy to talk to. Everything went smoothly from start to finish, and she made sure her to tell me if she was coming earlier or later on her scheduled days. I’d be more than happy to work with her again in the future!”

About: Hi! I’ve been raised with dogs and puppies since I was a child and played a primary role in taking care of them. After a lifetime full of dogs, I now have a cat! I love animals and would love to take care of your pet while you’re away. I am available for pet sitting and dog walking Monday through Thursday. I am a full time photographer, so I have the flexibility in my schedule to work whenever you need. Please reach out so I can meet your furry friend! I’m a full time photographer, so I have lots of flexibility in my schedule to take care of your pet. My work is generally in the evenings, so I have the entire day free. I am committed to both the safety and comfort of both you and your pet. I always request strict guidelines in advance to make sure I can do exactly what your pet needs. I interact as minimally as possible with your home, only using the space to play with your pet and nothing more.

“Rachel was incredibly helpful and responsive when I needed last-minute care for my cat. She sent photos and details every day and was extremely friendly and easy to work with over the last few days. I would definitely book with her again!”

“Paul was responsive and incredibly communicative. I needed to take a last-minute international trip. Within a few hours, we were able to schedule a time for Paul to take care of Clementine. I am definitely using his services again the next time I have to travel.”

About: I’ve owned my dog for 8 years and have volunteered at dog shelters as a dog walker for over 7 years. I have also completed Pat Miller’s Level 1 dog training academy. I have experience with reactive and fearful dogs. I work full time, but I can walk dogs on my lunch break or after work. I use force free training and positive reinforcement with my dog. I use force free training with my dog, so I’m not comfortable with choke/prong/shock collars. I use positive reinforcement to get the desired behavior. I have experience with reactive and fearful dogs.

“Shauna did great with walking and feeding Ralph and making sure he was settled safely back in his room while we were away for an evening! Thank you!”

Anna L.

“Annie was quick to respond and easy to communicate with. She took great care of our dog while we were out of town. She really helped our dog feel comfortable (when she knew our dog was missing us). She also left detailed visit reports with pictures. Would definitely recommend to others.”

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life. I grew up with both small and large dogs with all kinds of different needs. Truly, I understand that each pet has its own unique needs which I’m patient and willing to understand. As an adult I’ve owned/lived with 3 small dogs (pug, 2 cavalier King Charles spaniels) and a cat so I’m fully capable of taking care of multiple animals at once. I’ve cared for both my cavaliers from puppy through their seniors years including one being in a wheel chair his last year of life so I have experience with dogs in all years of their life. My cat was adopted as kitten so also familiar with cats during all years of life. Over the years I’ve done pet sitting and walked dogs for friends and neighbors in addition to my own pets. My work schedule is flexible with a blend of in person and remote work so we can discuss a schedule that fits your pets needs. Safety, trust, and respect are extremely important to me. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to follow all care instructions closely, keep pets on their normal routine, and maintain a calm, safe environment. I treat every home with care and respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I believe clear communication builds trust, so I provide regular updates and photos and am always available if you need to reach me. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet and your home are in good hands.

“Asha has taken care of my dogs and cat twice now and is amazing. She leaves great pictures and comments and I know my girls are happy and healthy and in good hands with her! Her communication is great; it’s so good to have your mind at ease when you’re traveling or away. Highly recommend!”

Stephanie C.

“Alec and Zoe were amazing! Spent time and played with our kitty, sent us updates, and were so easy to communicate with. Will absolutely use again!”

Emily A.

“Shereen was excellent with my older greyhound, Buddy. She thought of various ways to make him comfortable while I was away and did a great job of keeping me updated with pictures and videos everyday. I highly recommend her if you are looking for a great dog sitter.”

Eric L.

“Gaelle was wonderful! She dropped by to check on our cats while we were away, and sent updates each time she did. It was nice not to have to worry about our furry friends. Thank you! 5 stars, would rebook again!”

Megan R.

“Again, Rachel was fantastic. We didn't have to worry about our pets at all while she cared for them, she's super responsive, and I'm thrilled we found her!”

Taylor B.

“McKenna was amazing with Goose and Roo! We came back to tired, content puppies. McKenna was great with sending regular updates and pictures. We definitely plan to have her watch the dogs again next time we’re out of town!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for a wide variety of breeds and personalities. From energetic Jack Russell Terriers to strong, loyal American Bullies, which I currently own, I understand that every dog has unique needs. I’m especially comfortable working with dogs that have behavioral challenges, including those who are anxious, reactive, or need a little extra patience and consistency. I believe in building trust through positive interactions, maintaining routines, and providing a calm, safe environment where dogs can feel comfortable and cared for. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve while you're away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As the owner of an American Bully, I structure my day around making sure he gets plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and quality time. My routine includes daily walks, playtime, feeding, and keeping him on a consistent schedule to help him feel happy and secure. Because caring for dogs is already part of my everyday life, welcoming another pet into my routine feels seamless. Whether your dog needs an active walk, companionship while you're away, or extra patience and attention, I'll make sure they receive the same level of care, love, and reliability that I give my own dog. I treat every pet like they're my own. I follow your pet's normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I also provide plenty of love, attention, and regular photo updates, so you can have peace of mind while you're away. Whether in my home or yours, my goal is to provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care.

“Iryna was so communicative the entire time I was away. Her updates, pictures, and everything inbetween made me feel so much better about someone watching my girls. I will absolutely be booking her again and anyone else in Arlington area should as well!”
