1. Kevin M.
“Once again, we entrusted our energetic pooch, Truman, to Kevin's care, and once again, we couldn't be happier! Kevin's professionalism, patience, and genuine dedication to Truman shone through, just like the first time. Despite Truman's slight behavioral quirks, Kevin expertly managed him, ensuring he received the exercise and attention he needed. Returning home to find Truman relaxed and content speaks volumes about Kevin's dedication and skill as a pet sitter. Regular updates and photos kept us reassured throughout our trip. We wholeheartedly recommend Kevin to anyone seeking a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thanks, Kevin, for another fantastic experience!”
2. Tori E.
“Highly recommend Tori for you pet needs. She is extremely prompt in her responses. She sent pictures of the pets on her arrival to our home and then daily. She even sent a video. Our dog can be very nervous around new people but took right to Tori, putting our minds at ease while we were way. We will definitely be booking her again in the future.”
3. Karachi O.
“Karachi took excellent care of our dogs and home. She jumped to our rescue when our flight was delayed and stayed an extra night. Highly recommended.”
4. Destiny R.
“Destiny took care of our house and Hazel and did a spectacular job. Communication was great, the house was in perfect condition when we arrived home. We would welcome Destiny back to our house any time and would also refer her to someone else 100% of the time. Thanks so much, Destiny!!!”
5. Heidy G.
“She was so nice and took great care of my dog. My dog sometimes is timid among strangers but Heidy made the experience much better and gave me peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. 🌸🌸 10/10 recommend.”
6. Haley R.
“I CANNOT say enough on Haley's AMAZING SERVICE!! She took such great care of my Jake for the weekend Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! You are a gem!”
7. Erin C.
“Erin is fantastic! I am so happy to have found her to help out with my pup Marley when we are in need. She is super flexible, responsive, and caring! Marley was not feeling well a few days before she was scheduled to sit him, so I double checked she would be okay to still watch him. Not only did she not have any issues, but she checked in on him until it was time for her to watch him. Throughout her stay she sent several pictures / updates. It is a stress free experience with Erin!”
8. Conor B.
“I recommend Conor without hesitation.. I live in FL but have a sister in Washington DC and needed someone to watch my dog. So my request posted on Rover was confusing to many potential dog sitters. Most didn’t read my description where I explained that I was visiting my sister who lives in Washington DC. Conor read it and understood what I needed and responded on very short notice. Conor was on time, professional and personable. . If you need someone to watch your dog, stop looking: sign up Conor!”
9. Mallory M.
“Mallory house sat for me for the day while I had a work event. She was wonderful with Una, who requires a bit more patience and attention since she is a senior pup. Mallory was attentive and took excellent care of Una. She sent frequent updates with photos and video. It made being away for the day and evening stress free knowing she was in good hands.”
10. Betty M.
“We want to say thank you for spending time and taking care of Cassidy! You were very communicative and very easy going. For those that (like us) get a little stressed out about leaving their dog with a sitter, look no further than Betty. We felt very safe leaving him with you and will definitely be looking to rebook when Cass-Cass needs a sitter.”
11. Lilibet K.
“Lilibet was highly communicative with questions and updates via text and she clearly provided a lot of affection and cuddles for two very needy dogs and took them on walks with photo updates. Left out apt very clean.”
12. Bradley H.
“Had a great experience! Damien was communicative and attentive to our dogs. He seemed prepared when he arrived and was very flexible in working with our schedules. He sent photos and videos often and clearly loved our pups!”
13. ernel c.
“Ernel did a great job housesitting and dog sitting for us over Thanksgiving week. Our pup was very happy and well cared for! Great communication too. We highly recommend Ernel!”
14. Abby L.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a kid and have always took the best care of them from walks to brushing to feeding on a schedule to walking and playing! Flexible schedule and in the home most of the day to care for the pets. I am also able to successfully potty train if necessary! I just recently graduated from the University of Maryland and am looking for jobs! I am currently very flexible and would love to walk and or care for your dog(s)! I have a very friendly cat but can separate them if need be. I have a feeding schedule for my cat and will be able to stay on track with your pets feeding or medication schedule.

“DJ is a great dog sitter that treated my doggie like her own!! My extra hyper terrier always recieved plenty of positive reinforcement and exercise from DJ. She is a responsible and caring woman who I call whenever my dog need a sitter. She is prompt and reliable and a pleasure to work with!!!”
19. Erin C.
“Erin has volunteered with my rescue group for the past six years. During that time she has shown herself to be a responsible and dedicated worker. She has worked as a foster for animals, pet sitter, and she has also helped with pet adoptions. Erin has a true love for animals. She works hard to ensure that they are well cared for at all times. I would highly recommend her for any pet jobs.”
20. Andrew T.
