“Stephanie and Luis were great with my dog, Shipley. I felt like I picked the best possible spot for him to stay while I was out of town. I will definitely rebook in the future!”
“Tamara accepted my booking on relatively short notice and she provided daily updates and photos, which is always appreciated. I could tell my dog was comfortable and in caring hands. I highly recommend Tamara!”
“Beth was fantastic with Marty! She sent frequent photos and updates, and Marty was calm and content when I picked him up. An extra bonus is that he had a frenchie friend to hang out with! I will definitely request Beth’s services again.”
“Krista and Kira are WONDERFUL! Clearly great dog lovers and were so sweet with our senior tripod. He was clearly so happy and relaxed with them and that made being away stress free! Thank you SO MUCH!”
“Fathia was wonderful with Foxy while we were out of town! She was reliable, caring, and made us feel completely comfortable knowing Foxy was in great hands. We came home to a happy and well-cared-for pup. We would absolutely recommend Fathia and would happily book with her again!”
About: I've been a dog person my whole life. Our family has shared our home with everything from standard poodles to an American Eskimo, so I've handled big personalities, high-maintenance coats, smart dogs who need a job, and gentle seniors who need patience and a soft place to land. We recently lost our beloved standard poodle, and while we're not ready for another dog of our own yet, we have a lot of love with nowhere to go. We'd be thrilled to pour it into yours. Your dog will be our only pet, which means undivided attention: no competing for the couch, the yard, or the treats. Speaking of the yard, it's fully enclosed, so there's plenty of room to sniff, play, and stretch out safely, and we're an easy walk from a nearby park for longer outings. Our home also includes a dog-adoring 7-year-old who has grown up around dogs and knows how to be calm and respectful with them, and all interactions are supervised. By day I run a national nonprofit (from our home), so I'm organized, responsive, and used to being trusted with things that matter to other people. You'll get prompt replies, photo updates, and a sitter who actually follows your instructions, whether that's a medication schedule, a specific feeding routine, or a nightly belly rub quota. I work from home, so your dog won't be left alone for long stretches. My day has a natural rhythm that suits most dogs: a morning walk or yard time before I start work, a midday break for a potty trip and some play, and a longer walk to the park in the late afternoon once the workday winds down. In between, your dog is welcome to nap at my feet, keep an eye on the squirrels from the window, or supervise my Zoom calls. Evenings and weekends are family time, which means more play, more attention, and more couch cuddles. I'm happy to follow your dog's existing schedule for meals, medications, and bedtime, since I know routine is what helps most dogs settle into a new place quickly. Your dog's safety and comfort come first in our home. We have a fully enclosed yard for supervised play and potty breaks, and we're a short walk from several parks for longer outings, always on leash unless you've told me otherwise. I do a quick check of gates and latches before every outing, and dogs are never left unattended outside. Inside, your dog has the run of our home and is welcome on the furniture unless you'd prefer they stay off. We've never crated our own dogs, but if a crate is what makes your pup feel safe and settled, I'm happy to use one. Just bring it along with their bed, food, and anything else that smells like home.
“Alli was a great host to Tali, once again. Even after our dog had some dental work requiring some changes to her diet and some medications, Alli didn't bat an eye, and Tali came home happy and healthy.”
“Loic took excellent care of Enzo. We were delayed during travel and Loic was very flexible and let us know Enzo was in good hands. He kept in frequent contact with us and Enzo enjoyed his stay. I highly recommend Loic and would use his services again.”
“Sabrina was nothing short of amazing !! From arranging a FaceTime ( via rover), consistent communication, administered Bears medication, compassionate, and understanding!!! I felt a big relieve because I felt like my Bear was on a vacation while I was on a work trip! Haha THANK YOU SABRINA🤍”
“Rosina was great with our eight-month-old puppy. She was happy and energized when we picked her up. We were very grateful for the many photos we got during her stay of her playing with the other dogs!”
“Amanda was a super host for Luna. She was extremely conscientious and informative during the stay, which put me at ease. I think Luna and Amanda enjoyed each other's company! Thank you, Amanda!”
“Olivia and Ryan were wonderful and took great care of Georgie. I got regular updates and adorable photos throughout his stay and will absolutely be booking with them again. :)”
“Megan was such an amazing sitter! She watched our 10 year old Shiba, Rey, in her apartment for 4 days / nights! Rey has not stayed with a sitter in over 5 years, so we asked Megan to meet her two days before, and she agreed! We met on a walk and Rey loved her immediately! Rey had no troubles staying with Megan! Megan was super responsive and calm and sweet! She sent my husband and me several photos updates during each day and took such great care of Rey, who ate, slept, and went to the bathroom like she normally would! We are SO happy with our experience with Megan that we've already booked another stay with her, and we plan to continue to do so! Can't recommend Megan enough!”
“Fabian was the best host to Rome! He was in great care, sent updates and photos of Rome while I was on vacation. He made sure Rome was safe and had a good time during his stay! I highly recommend Fabian for your dog sitting needs, he’s great!”
“Rachel is absolutely amazing! This was my second booking with her and it was just as fabulous as the first one. She sends just the best updates and truly ensures that my pup has a wonderful time. I so appreciate that she really cares about my dog as much as I do. She even helped teach my puppy how to walk on the leash. I am seriously impressed. Thank you again!!”
“Colleen took wonderful care of our cockapoo for 3 days. She sent photos several times and provided photos. She also was able to give some eyedrops several times per day that our dog required. My dog seemed content and well cared for. Thank you.”
“Kayla and Adam were wonderful hosts for our little Bonnie! This was Bonnie’s first time staying anywhere without us, but Kayla and Adam obviously love dogs and were simply great with her. Kayla sent reports with pictures several times a day, putting our minds at ease. And the fact that our dog, a very nervous and picky eater, was relaxed enough to eat on her first day told us very clearly that she was doing fine and felt at home with Kayla and her family. Thank you Kayla and Adam - we’ll be back!!”
“Fatima and her sweet dog Lou were so wonderful! Highly recommend. She hosted our dog overnight on the Fourth of July and provided great updates and prompt replies. Our dog was scared during the fireworks and Lou stayed by her side, which I’m sure was a comfort.”
“Oh, my goodness!!! What a fantastic experience for me and Stella. Malvi & Andrej were so accommodating to my big, hyper fur baby. They checked in with a question and photos within the first 30 minutes of her boarding. It was such a wonderful feeling to get daily photos and even a video of Stella playing. I'm so very thankful that I found this great couple to care for Stella when I travel. Thank you, you made my beach trip special because I knew that Stella was happy, safe and loved. I really appreciate you both. We will be back, soon!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Capitol Hill
Rut has cared for my dog on multiple occasions and consistently provided excellent attention. She maintains his routine, administers his medicine, and keeps him clean, healthy, and stimulated. She sends cute photos of my dog resting and napping, which reassures me that he feels comfortable and secure in her home.
We felt like muchacho was in great hands with Kaylee and her partner! Our dog is a senior boy who requires medication and a very particular schedule. We’re always nervous to board him (as any pet parent usually is) but with kaylees constant pictures and updates, we felt relieved and that he was taken care of. They were very understanding and were very good at communicating and reading his bio and instructions. We would absolutely use them again!
Rachel was wonderful with my Maltese, who is very sweet but can be reactive on walks. She called me ahead of the booking to get an understanding of his routine and made me feel confident she could handle any issue that arose. She lives on a quiet block and was waiting out front for us so drop-off was easy and she was very sensitive to making him feel comfortable with the hand-off. She sent lots of photos — she’s really a good photographer! — from walks and the nearby park, which he was clearly loving. Rachel was very accommodating as I updated my arrival time and was again waiting out front for a very easy pick-up after a long drive. Really appreciated all her positive communication. She’s clearly an animal lover and I know my guy will enjoy staying with her again.
Robyn was a lifesaver by watching our dog Howie on very short notice. Even though Howie had newly begun having medical needs that required constant vigilance and a strict medication regimen, Robyn graciously and happily agreed to babysit him. She was so responsive and proactive and asked all the right questions about his needs, and Howie felt right at home with her. I can’t gush enough about how she came through for us, two strangers, in a critical moment. We will absolutely leave Howie with Robyn again and are so thankful to have found such a generous and compassionate sitter at such a stressful time
Donald and Jeffrey are absolutely wonderful! We just relocated to DC and worried about finding a trusted dog sitter for our French Bulldog, Winnie- thank goodness we found Donald and Jeffrey! They love Winnie like their own, and we are at complete ease while she is in their care. We are so grateful!
Lisa was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of our dogs, and we could tell how happy and comfortable they were with her. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands while we were away. We’re so grateful for her care and attention, and we would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️
