“Jackalyn and her husband were amazing! They looked after our dog and cat and did a terrific job. They walked our dog 3 times a day and fed and played with both of our animals. Jackalyn was very easy and responsive to reach and sent us photos of our animals everyday. I would gladly let Jackalyn and her husband watch our dog and cat again, and appreciate the terrific job they did! Would highly recommend Jackalyn to all of my friends and family or anyone else.”

“Joseph was very communicative and shared pictures of our pups with us daily. He followed all directions we gave him and made sure our pups feel at home under his care. I would recommend Joseph as a pet sitter and would entrust him with watching our pups again in the future. Thanks for taking care of our babies!”

“Payton is awesome and she truly cares for my dogs. She takes really good care of them and gives me plenty of updates (pictures, video, and messages) while they're in her care. She is the only one in this area that I trust to watch my dogs!”

“Nicole and family did an amazing job with Zack! He had such a great time that he's now exhausted 😴👍. Their kindness, responsiveness, and care were truly appreciated – thank you for making our experience so special!”

“Jayla took great care of our girl Ruby while we were out of town for the holiday break. She kept us informed and provided picture upgrades of our girl along the way. Definitely will rebook with her again when we’re in need.”

“Mark and his family were absolutely amazing! The communication was great from start to finish, which really gave me peace of mind. This was Coco’s first time being away from me overnight, and honestly, I wouldn’t have gone if Mark and his family weren’t available. Coco can be full of energy, but I love how they were so patient and accommodating with her. I also really appreciated all the pictures and the positive, loving vibes from the whole family, it truly made a difference. Thank you all so much, and we will definitely see you again!”

“Fathia was so awesome! She took such great care of Thelma and welcomed her into her family! She was warm and attentive and fun and was so joyful having Thelma with her. Got great update pics and feedback and Fathia had such a warm, confident and competent vibe, which is so important when you are far away. She gave Thelma the TLC she deserves and i would not hesitate to have her care for her again.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our Tony! Janel is kind, attentive, and truly loves dogs. Tony had never stayed in a different home before and has been pretty isolated. Janel was patient and loving to Tony and sent me cute pictures and notes. She was also very communicative and flexible when we had to change our pick up date. Tony adapted well to his new friends and I could tell he missed them after he left! Janel is the best!”

“OMG where do I begin. Ms. Crystal is AMAZING!😍😍😍😍😍 From beginning to end our experience was top notch and extremely professional. She began with meeting us virtually prior to our booking date to detailing what she offered and what was to be expected. Everything she stated was true. She treated our fur baby🐕 as her own! She took our baby on nature wallks, sent pictures daily and checked in with a refreshing text message of the details of our pups day. She even gave valuable insight on our pups behavior, calming techniques for her anxiety and personal experiences from 24 years of knowledge which we happily soaked up. This was our first time with Ms. Crystal but she now our go to. Our fur baby just loves❤️her. We would recommend her to everyone!”

“Incredible! From the first moment, I knew my pup was safe and loved on. Abigail consistently communicated how he was doing and sent pictures that made my day every day! I highly recommend her services. I have booked with Rover before, but this was by far the best experience.”

“Briana was fabulous! Easy to coordinate and communicate with. We received updates and photos throughout the stay and our fur baby was clearly enjoying herself and comfortable. Would absolutely recommend!”

“Lia’s communication is always on point! Charlie and I recently moved to DC and looking for a new sitter. Lia was honestly the best sitter for Charlie! She went above and beyond for Charlie even accommodated to his spoiled picky eating behavior 😂. Honestly I want to gate keep Lia but I think everyone deserves to have a sitter like her.”

“Valeria took great care of my dog Deuce. While I was in route to Scotland. He had an unexpected emergency and she took him to the animal hospital for a small surgery. Her and her family took great care of deuce and made him feel comfortable and safe. Valeria was in communication throughout his visit,sent me pictures and updated progress after deuce surgery. She did an AMAZING job!!! I will definitely rebook with her again.”

“Malvi, Andrej, and Max are like Ozzy’s second home. I feel so comfortable leaving Ozzy there when I travel for work, because I know how comfortable Ozzy is with them! They honestly treat him like their own and it makes me feel so much better being away. They are so communicative with their schedules and send lots of cute updates. I also completely trust their judgment with other dogs they sit, so I know Ozzy is always safe and has plenty of new friends to play with every time.”

About: I am a true Capitol Hill dog lover and I have always had a strong passion for animals, mostly for dogs. I have been caring for dogs since I was child, taking care of my mother’s beloved shitzu. Taking care of her helped me acquire basic canine behavior and taught me the responsibility of taking care of a pet. Most recently I raised my own best friend, Gelato an English Bulldog. I gained my breeder experience with Gelato and cared for her and her 6 puppies, until they were rehomed at 8 months. I enjoy taking long walks, which I consider the ultimate stress reliever and best way to exercise. I have no problem getting my hands dirty. I have 20 years of experience in the customer service field and enjoy striving to provide the best experience to my clients. In my personal time I am spending time with my 2 little girls teaching them how to play sports, and of course how to be loving pet owners. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page! I’m currently working part time and will be available to walk most pets during early mornings hours during the week and mid day and evenings during the weekend. I definitely would like to know your pets temperament, and what might scare them. I know they will feel most comfortable at home but if they are with me, I’d like to keep a calm, pet friendly setting for them to be comfortable in.

“Jeff was excellent! By far the best Rover experience I have had. He helped me out last minute and was super accommodating and friendly. He communicated with me multiple times a day about how my dog was doing and I could tell her genuinely cared for her well being. He also has an awesome fenced in back yard which is a dog’s dream. I would highly recommend.”

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience! From the moment we met, I knew my dogs were in amazing hands. She treated Niko and Meeka like family and went above and beyond to make sure they felt loved, comfortable, and cared for. She provided regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious that she genuinely cared about my dogs and paid attention to every detail of their routine. I came home to two happy, relaxed pups, which speaks volumes about the level of care she provided. Finding someone you trust with your dogs is priceless, and I truly feel like I found a gem. She is reliable, kind, and incredibly attentive, and I would recommend her to anyone without hesitation. We will absolutely be booking with her again. Thank you for taking such exceptional care of Niko and Meeka, we are so grateful!

Tamara’s care for my pup far exceeded my expectations. we were in a bit of a sticky situation with another sitter and she was able to quickly save the day by taking my dog in. She was attentive, communicative and understanding to my dogs needs. i will absolutely book again

I cannot recommend Aisha enough, they truly are animal lovers and will go above and beyond. I had a loving chihuahua mix, sure that is easy. but I also had an older special needs girl who was clearly given extra love and attention and I cannot thank them enough. I will book again!

Thank you again, Lilian, for taking such thoughtful care of Ruby and Ivy while I was away in Washington state. It gave me a great sense of peace knowing they were in a calm, attentive, and caring environment while I traveled. I appreciated the updates, communication, and overall kindness shown throughout their stay. It was clear they were well looked after and treated with patience and care. I would absolutely recommend your services to others looking for a trustworthy caretaker for their pets.

Johnathan is great with Apollo while I was out of town for the weekend. He’s what I expected as a dog sitter. Although Apollo is a reactive dog, Johnathan is a considerate person and made it work with him! He’s a good communicator and gives the updates about Apollo while I was on away. I trust Johnathan dog-sitting Apollo. Seeing Apollo being comfortable around Johnathan made me happy. Definitely book him again in the future.

Dionne Is great 😊 My Pups & I love her service that she provided us. She was very caring, loving, and went above and beyond to make sure they felt comfortable. She walked them sent pics and videos and also fed them properly! I WILL MOST DEFINITELY BE REBOOKING WITH HER ❤️ MY ADVICE TO YOU ALL BOOK HER SHES AMAZING COMMUTATION IS AS WELL ‼️‼️‼️

Myesha is such an angel! This is the second time I’ve booked with her almost 6 months apart. When I went for drop off, my Prada instantly became a big puppy. You could tell she remembered her, enjoyed her, and was really happy to be back. That means a lot to me! Even on pick up, Prada was prancing around so happily as if she would see her again. That energy was so genuine and I truly appreciate Myesha. I’m not even sure Prada would let me book with someone else! ♥️.

Sabrina cared so much for my boy Ace that he didn't want to come home! From consistent updates to an engaging itinerary and even managing his medical schedule, Sabrina did not disappoint. She openly communicated throughout his stay and managed his visit with much care. Ace will be hanging with her again soon.
