“Brianne and her husband took great care of Birdie! We dropped her off for daycare on Saturday. They were extremely responsive and ensured a smooth transition for both drop off and pick up. Birdie came home happy and exhausted! They definitely made sure she was exercised and cared for.”
“Shanilka was super responsive and understanding of my dog's needs!! She was very kind and prompt with pick up and drop off so I didn't have to wait long in the cold. Highly recommend!!”
“Grette was super with our little pup for Doggy Day Care -- she knows just what your pup needs and she took our very active 6 month old pup for a long walk so he was really chill when he came home.”
“Rene and Steph took such great care of my dog. They have two dogs who are friendly and were good companions for my pup. I will continue to rebook and highly recommend Rene and Step!”
About: I have grown up with cats, dogs, fish, turtle, snakes, etc in my household and pets are beloved among my extended family. I am responsible, comfortable with handling mess and administering medications or other medical needs, and a huge animal lover. I have plenty of time off these next few months to give SO much love to your sweet baby! Please let me work for you! I’m a huge animal lover. I foster cats and regularly volunteer with a DC animal rescue. I love any chance to get spend time with an animal. The best form of therapy! I live in an apartment near multiple parks and paths. The weather is gorgeous and I’m always in the mood for a walk or run!
“Lee is great! She is easy to communicate with and very responsible. My dog has visited Lee for day care several times and loves hanging out with both Lee and her dog Lucy!”
“Wonderful family. loving, warm and relaxed environment. Great communitcation. My dog, Lio, seemed so happy and relaxed from the minute we got there.”
“Andy is the best! He knows Kiki since she was about 5 months old puppy (now almost a year old) and has been always reliable, kind, flexible, punctual, and genuinely cares for her wellbeing. Today Kiki had another fun daycare at his house and didn’t seem to want to leave! She was happily tired and slept on our way home— I so appreciated :) I always receive the report card containing pictures and care/walk diary after I pick her up too. Thank you again Andy! Kiki and I will look forward to seeing you next time~”
“Candace continues to be an amazing dog sitter for my 1-year old pup. I really appreciate her responsiveness as well. She is always super pleasant and my dog has the best time at her house. He always comes home happy!”
“When we arrived to drop our dog off with Michael for the second time, she leapt and cried with joy to see him. That's how happy she is spending time w him. We couldn't be happier. Thank you, Michael!”
“Natalia has watched Coco many times and is always amazing! She is very communicative throughout the day sending pictures and videos. We know coco is well cared for while with her and will continue to have her help us in the future!”
About: Welcome to my profile! For the past six years, I have studied and worked in Brooklyn, and I have delighted in walking and sitting dogs through Rover in each neighborhood I have lived in. Since moving away from home and having to leave the dogs I grew up with behind I love finding opportunities to spend time with animals and build trust and communication with them. My experience includes volunteering for animal rescues in DC and in Peru, sitting professionally for clients, and for friends, family, and neighbors, and working with positive reinforcement trainers for my family's dogs back home, who are reactive. I enjoy going on long walks, hikes, runs, and exploring the city, so if your dog is high energy, a puppy, or just needs a lot of stimulation and exercise, we would be a great fit! I also have experience watching older dogs or lower-energy breeds who simply need a calm place to stay. I can accommodate most schedules and reasonable requests, feel free to message if you have any questions and tell me more about your pup! One bonus - my apartment has an elevator and primate balcony with a potty area, so frequent potty breaks can be accommodated. Open to pickup and drop off, and last minute requests. I work at a lab 3 days a week, though I might have to go in on my off days to complete various tasks. Weekday sits work best for my schedule. My apartment is pretty dog-proofed. I make sure not to leave out anything toxic to dogs (gum, chocolate, etc...) and to put away anything I would not want to get destroyed. I am open to continuing any training you might have with your dog, such as sitting and waiting before a meal or ignoring other dogs on a walk.
About: Growing up around animals has blessed me with the proper love and experience necessary to take care of both cats and dogs. My open availability and schedule allows for 24/7 care. I look forward to meeting you soon🙂. Hi there! I am online college student which allows me to have completely open availability 24/7. I am an early bird which helps my schedule and allows me to stay at home and attend all of the needs required to make our furry friends happy! Create your appointments same day if you need to, I am always able to accommodate to any needs. I can’t wait to meet the both of you, see you soon! I provide a safe, trustworthy and risk-free environment. I am very attentive and would appreciate and enjoy spending time with my new furry friends, thank you!
“Justin and Jeremy are awesome! I needed a last minute sitter for my pampered pup and Justin and Jeremy responded very quickly to my request and I was able to schedule a meet and greet a few hours after speaking. My pup was scheduled for daycare the following day and I know she had a great time as Justin and Jeremy sent pictures throughout the day of her taking a walk, napping, and enjoying cuddles. When I returned to pick her up I could see she was very comfortable with Justin and Jeremy and had a full day playing with other pups as she quickly fell asleep on the car ride home. I would definitely entrust Justin and Jeremy with caring for my pup again! Thank you Justin and Jeremy! -Jessica and Coco Monroe”
“Absolutely wonderful experience with Galen. Our dog Harvey got along well with their dog Ginger and he was well tuckered out after a full day spent here! Could not reccomend more highly, we will be coming back again!”

Grette has taken care of our puppy for the past two weeks, and we couldn’t be happier. She’s kind, reliable, and our puppy comes home happy and tired every time. Great communication, flexible scheduling, and amazing help with puppy training- plus the sweetest attention to details like daily brushing. We’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend!
Diana is a kind soul and an amazing host for my puppy. She’s been very helpful with potty training and always makes sure everything feels safe and comfortable. Her adorable dog, Charlie, is super chill and friendly, which makes the environment even better. Diana is flexible, responsive, and you can feel her genuine passion for caring for animals. We’re already asking her to set up regular visits because we trust her completely. I couldn’t recommend her more!
Elaine was super attentive to and caring with our 7 month old pup. He came home very happy and relaxedl having had a fun day of play and outdoor time in her yard. She was also very responsive with organizing drop off and pick and even went and bought food for him when I forgot to add some for the day. Amazing! I am very grateful for her caring for him so well for the day.
I have a Malinois Mix, so he is very high every not every Rover sitter has the skills to take good care of him. So, it really means a lot to me when someone seems to genuinely enjoy taking care of him, and really makes an effort to be active with him. Moises always goes above and beyond to care for my dog. He takes such good care of Sisko, and I can tell Sisko had a lot of fun with Moises + loves him. I couldn't recommend Moises more, and thanks so much!
Juliet did a truly terrific job as a dog sitter! She was reliable, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure our dog felt comfortable and loved while we were away. Her updates and photos were thoughtful and reassuring, and it was clear our pup was in great hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
Clark and Frances took great care of Tilly during her recent daycare session at their home. After meeting them and their cute dog Luca a few days earlier, Tilly was so eager to return that she literally pulled me to their front door. She and Luca played nonstop for hours and Frances also gave them a good long walk. Tilly still has some puppy-like behavior, and Frances and Clark were very patient with her. I felt very confident leaving her with them. She had a wonderful time, and came home happy and exhausted. I know she would like to return soon.
Jack was absolutely awesome with Whiskey! He took care of him for three days and went above and beyond to make sure he was well cared. Jack was kind, communicative, and very responsible throughout. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!
