“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!”

“Russell is a delight to work with! His communication and care for our golden doodle is the best we have ever had from a sitter. And he was incredibly flexible when we experienced weather-related travel delays. Highly recommend!”

“Emma was fantastic! I literally put in a request the day before needed because my previous booked sitter cancelled at the VERY last minute. Emma was more than gracious with accepting and was the best sit for Blu! I highly recommend her for a dog sit. She provided realtime updates and Blu was very happy with her.”

“Isabelle exceeded our expectations as a pet sitter! From the moment she arrived, our dog Max felt completely at ease with her, which says a lot about her natural way with animals. She kept us updated with regular messages and adorable photos that gave us complete peace of mind knowing Max was happy and well-cared for. What really impressed us was her attention to detail - not only did she take excellent care of Max, but she also left our home spotless.”

“Mirren was a dream. During our meet and greet, she was attentive to our directions and sweet to our pooches. She communicates well and often and wasn't afraid to ask questions. I really appreciated her easy going manner and ability to deal with unexpected hiccups. We would definitely use her again!”

“Haley was great with our pup Bruno. She was easy to coordinate with before the trip, kept us updated during our trip, and left our house in perfect shape. She is really sweet and Bruno loved her. We felt so comfortable knowing Haley was taking care of him. I would highly recommend Haley and will definitely book her again.”

“Eric helped me out on short notice when my original pet sitting plans fell through. He was very helpful and responsive and did a great job caring for my cat and dog!”
“Shannon was amazing with my dog Cash while I was away for a few days! Shannon provided daily pictures and videos, as well as updates as to how he was doing. I was very impressed with how detailed she was in her updates, and I didn’t worry at all about him while I was away! I highly recommend Shannon!”

“Mark was amazing with our dog, going above and beyond with him when we were out of town. We have a high energy dog and mark took him on several long walks. He was really great about sending photos too! And he took great care of our cat , checking on her multiple times . We look forward to working with him again soon!”

“Nicole and Keiran were life savers when our senior pup’s dementia worsened before a long planned trip we had. Thanks to their experience with senior dogs and our breed (Shiba Inu) - they expertly helped us navigate this new phase ensuring we were kept informed while keeping our pup safe and cared for. We’ll happily trust them with Koda in the future. They are great communicators and caring individuals. Highly recommend!”
“Corie’s care of our four dogs and tortoises was excellent - she’s a compassionate, thoughtful petsitter who made sure that we were kept updated about our pets’ wellbeing throughout our time away from home. We look forward to having her take care of Bear, Louie, Gigi, CloClo and our tortoises in the future!”

“We have a very full house (4 cats & 2 dogs) and Bonnie took great care of everything! She made sure our cat got his medication and wrangled our energetic pups. I would definitely ask her house sit for me again!”
“This is Andrew's second time with Stephanie pet sitting and I know it will not be his last! He was calm and clearly well-cared for when we got home. Andrew is blind so it's not easy for him to have new adventures but Stephanie kept him occupied with massages, games and lots of affection. He is not crazy about taking walks but Stephanie somehow got him to take a 45 minute walk! She sent us detailed updates and funny, adorable photos. I feel very comfortable with Stephanie. We were able to take our trip without worry. Plus, the house was beautiful when we got home.”
“This was our first outing with Alayza, and she is now on our go-to list! She got to know 2 older dogs that aren't always simple - and both gave her high marks! They quickly wanted to hang close to her!”

“Michael was wonderful to work with! He was really responsive and took great care of my foster dog. It's clear he's a dog lover and my pup was in excellent hands in his care! I'd definitely reach out to Michael for future dog sitting needs.”

“Jayme was great with my dog and was extremely flexible dealing with some last minute and slightly complicated plans. He was extremely patient and I felt confident with my dog in his care.”

“Really went above and beyond in caring for my dog with special needs - GREAT communication and updates and I came home to a perfectly happy pup! Thank you so much!!!”

“Dylan is incredible! You could tell from the first meet that pets love her. My dog means everything to me and I felt safe with her watching him. She sends pictures and updates. If you’re nervous about leaving your dog home, I promise you’ll feel good with your choice of book with her.”


“Gabrielle was the perfect housesitter for our dog. They met with us ahead of time to walk through the house and meet our dog, showed up on time, gave frequent updates, walked our dog regularly, took fantastic care of our house and cleaned up after themselves, and were extremely communicative and responsive throughout our trip. We would definitely work with Gabrielle again and highly recommend them to others.”

Shannon is an incredible sitter! She is extremely communicative, responsible, and trustworthy--when I met her, I felt immediately comfortable having her stay in my home with my dog who struggles with anxiety at times and has a sensitive stomach. I would absolutely trust Shannon again in my home with my dog, and I'm grateful for her dependable, high quality pet care!!

Madison did an excellent job watching my two cats while I was away for a week. One of my cats needs daily liquid medicine and she quickly learned how to give the meds safely and efficiently. Madison sent daily updates and photos, and when I returned, my apartment was spotless. I look forward to hiring Madison again soon!

We are so blessed to have found Issi as a sitter for Kiki. She was wonderful with Kiki and also calmed my nerves making it possible for me to go on my first trip without my little one feeling confident. Issi sent updates through the day with pictures which I looked forward to everyday! Issi took wonderful care of my home it looked even better when I came home! We will for sure be requesting Cynthia again we love her!

Shannon took wonderful care of our dog, cat, and home when we were on vacation for 2.5 weeks. She asked great, thorough questions about them when we were establishing her care and she was responsive and attentive to their needs while we were gone. Knowing she was caring for them really helped us relax while we were away. We would definitely book with her again for a future long trip!

Brianna is a LIFESAVER. I've been using the same sitter for years in So. Cal, but I'm temporarily in DC and was completely lost on what to do when I had to do an unexpected work trip. Brianna immediately arranged a meet and greet, took the time to get to know my cats and the space. And on that work trip, I realized that separate arrangements I had made hadn't worked out, and my cats had been alone for 24 hours plus. Brianna graciously stepped in and got the keys (and helped me avoid an awkward situation), and took care of the cats for the rest of the trip. I'm in DC until November, and very grateful I have someone reliable to take care of the furballs until then!

Lydia is great! She stayed in our home to take of our dog Nikko while we were away for 4 days. She sent regular updates and Nikko seemed to have a really good time with her. She was also super communicative and responsive during our pre-stay coordination and for the meet and greet. Definitely would recommend Lydia to anyone looking to have their dog taken care of by a nice and responsible person!

Jini is fantastic and treats our pets as if they were her own. She is attentive, communicative, and loves to be around pets! We always feel so confident that our pets are in great caring hands while we are away and don’t stress about the care or love they’re receiving.

Pippa (Tirzah) looked after our two dogs for two weeks and they were well taken care of and clearly took to her. In addition, Pippa was a responsible house sitter and everything was in good order when we returned, making it easy for us to come home. We'll hire Pippa again!
