“We rely on Jared for walking our dogs and also for dropping in on our cats when we travel. He stays the whole time and plays with them in addition to feeding them and cleaning their litter boxes. All our pets like Jared.”
“Lilla did an amazing job taking care of my cats. she sent lots of photos and detailed visit summaries, and even replaced my feeder ball that had broken while I was out of town. I definitely recommend her!”
“Leo was so incredibly friendly and was really invested in his time with our two cats. He left really helpful notes each day. I'm sure Nyx and Ellwood are looking forward to the next time Leo can pet sit them!”
“I would 100 percent rebook with Quantairra. She provided fabulous pictures of my cats playing while I was away, and when I returned from my vacation, my cats were so content with her visits that they didn't rush to the door to meet me. They almost always do this. I'm so happy with her help with my pets. Highly recommend!”
“Karrah came for in-home visits to feed and look after our two kitties. She was absolutely fantastic with them, so much so that the one that always hides under the bed the entire time we're gone even came out to socialize. She sent us daily updates with photos and even tidied up when they got litter all over the place. The kitties were so content they barely noticed we were back. I can't recommend Karrah enough!”
“Once again, Megan is our most trusted cat sitter for our 2 babies! We’re just returning from a long trip and were so much more at easy knowing she was checking on them.”
About: Growing up in Arkansas, I had all types of animals, ranging from large dogs to small chinchillas. Currently, I’m the owner of two cats — and I love animals. Looking forward to helping you take care of yours! I currently work full time Monday through Friday, but I would love to spend time with your pet on the weekends! My availability on weekends is super flexible, and I’m happy to accommodate any needs. I currently live in an apartment, where I do not host any pets. However, I’m happy to stop by or stay at your home to take care of pets! I also love walking around the city, so dog walking is the perfect side hustle for me!
“I loved working with Mary!! Our cat Snowball stayed with her while we were on a trip and she had a great time. Mary is a true professional and prior to the booking we spoke on the phone and discussed Snowball’s needs and her daily routine. Mary has a very kind personality and is warm. I felt at ease during Snowball’s entire stay. Mary would send photos and let me know Snowball was doing. I would highly recommend Mary and wish to use her in the future if I am ever out of town and in need for cat boarding services.”
“Amazing pet sitter! Erica was so fantastic with our new cat who can be a bit skittish. Erica also did a great job navigating hiccups with our apartment complex, cannot recommend them enough!”
“Iris is an excellent cat sitter. We have a timid cat, who waited at the door for her visits. Our cat was eager to continue her routine of being fed and hanging out playing with a laser. Iris kept her cat bowls clean and the cat litter box was kept in good order. We highly recommend her for cat care and I’m sure her dog care is equally good.”
“Linda was awesome taking care of our kitties! She even won over our often standoffish cat - the first sitter to accomplish this feat. We don't travel often but definitely plan to ask Linda back when we do. Thank you so much!”

I currently walk and board animals in my home, specializing in 1-on-1 care. I have work from home flexibility and I have dedicated hours for spending time with your fur baby if you need pet boarding. I accommodate my schedule to adapt to your pets normal home walking, activity & feeding schedule. Overnight stays include two walks per day, one in the morning and one before bed. Any additional walks are 20$. I provide reliable and loving boarding for cats, dogs, parrots, pocket pets & exotics. I also offer flexible drop off and pickup times. I’m located near Takoma Metro.

I will walk your dog in my neighborhood or to the nearby park. I have a nice yard in which your dog can enjoy fresh air and exercise. I love spending time outdoors while walking dogs! Cats: I am with your cat during the day & set aside play time with them so they can chase ribbons, be rubbed or cuddled. Parrots: I spend quality time with your birds and allow them window space to see the outside world. I only board one animal at a time- unless they are from the same household, ensuring your pet receives quality care. My husband and daughter also assist with the care of your pet. This ensures that they are always cared for and supervised.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 12. Neighbors, friends & family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pet. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 5. I have a fenced yard with my adorable dog Princess to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. Thx

In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for a ferret and a bearded dragon. I strive to be a calm, safe, and comforting presence so your pet feels secure while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like my own and keep you updated every step of the way. I work full-time from Monday to Friday, but my job is not traditional and allows me flexibility with proper notice. I am free in the evenings, other than Thursdays. I am also free on the weekends. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and stress-free environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, respect your home, pay close attention to their needs and behavior, and treat them with the same patience and love I give my own pets. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you always know how they’re doing.
“Caden was great at taking care of Thelma & Louise for a last minute booking. He communicated well and showed pictures of them eating since one of my cats eats fast especially when anxious. He did a great job sending pictures too. Highly recommend Caden for your summer vacations!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Chillum
I’ve booked with Isabella several times and she always does an amazing job! She’s very responsive and sends great updates/ pics. She notices when I’m running out of cat food and will pick up the new pack in the mail. Overall she’s very reliable, professional, and my boys always enjoy when she checks in on them.
As usual Nathan did an amazing job watching my precious babies. I know at least one of the kitties are getting used to his visits; working on the other one! 😂😂 When I arrived home they were happy and all their needs taken care of! Thanks again Nathan will see you again!
This was my first time using Rover and Bridgette made it a 100% positive experience. She accepted a last minute one-time drop in for my cat when my travel plans abruptly changed. Very professional with timely communication and she asked all the right questions to earn trust. Will definitely rebook and would recommend!
Kim was super professional and took great care of our two cats. She was organized, communicative, and spent plenty of time playing with our cats during her daily visits. We got lots of great pictures and detailed updates too! I’d definitely recommend Kim to others.
We were naturally a bit anxious using Rover for the first time after our long-time pet sitters moved away, but Joelle and Andrew completely put our minds at ease! They took care of our three cats—Church, Cherry, and Ebony—for almost a week and were absolutely wonderful. They arrived on time for every visit, kept up with feeding and box maintenance, and made sure to spend quality time playing with each of them. Capturing the hearts of three very different personalities isn't easy, but Joelle and Andrew gave each cat the exact attention and care they needed. We couldn't be happier or more satisfied, and we will definitely be booking them again!
So great to work with Haviland. She was timely with communication and gave the best care and updates of my cats. I felt reassured they were in good hands; they’re also notoriously skittish and finicky and really warmed up to her unlike most cat sitters I’ve had. Definitely highly recommend and can’t wait to have her watch my kitties again.
Emma was punctual, communicative, and wonderful with my three cats. She cleaned the litter and ensured that everything was completed according to the instructions I gave her. My cats were all happy to get their treats and sat on her lap while she was there. I would not hesitate to use her services again!

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
