Pet Sitting in Columbia Heights

“I’m so glad that I found Amy on Rover. She is very reliable and responsive and the perfect person to help out with my puppy when I have to be gone during the day. Very friendly and great with pets ❤️ We will continue to hire her to take care of Bowie 🐶”

“It’s quite clear how amazing Christy was with my very spoiled cat. This was my first time using Rover and it was a wonderful experience and I could feel good knowing my baby got lots of playtime and love. Greatly appreciated the daily notes and pictures, I could tell my cat was much calmer and happier then other times I’ve traveled.”

Madeline J.

“Amelia took such great care of our pets while we were away, and they were happy and playful when we got back! The pictures she took during her visits looked like the animals were having a great time. She’s super communicative, too!”

Molly B.

“Pamela was fantastic with our two cats! She was always timely in her drop-ins, gave comprehensive updates, and kept our cats happy and entertained. We highly recommend her for anyone else looking for a sitter!”

Ben H.

“This is my first time using Rover, I usually have friends or family watch my cats so I was extremely worried about having a stranger watch them. Anne from the start was so kind and reassuring. She was super communicative and her report cards were so nice to read everyday while I was gone. She made sure my cats were well taken care of and entertained. I could tell she really cared about them. She picked up my mail for me and even stayed longer than the appointed time to make sure my cats were okay. I will definitely be booking her again.”

Catie C.

“Shannon has been so good to our doggies, 6 years old and 4 months old. She kept us updated with how they did and included pictures with each visit. She was responsible about resetting the security system each time she left. She’s thoughtful and pays attention to detail. We’d definitely recommend her!”

Kim F.

“Holly was wonderful and we would definitely have her again. She took great care of our kitty, Lily. She sent nice photos, gave updates, and gave Lily lots of love.”

Katie & Joanne L.

“Rola did a fantastic job with our two dogs during her drop-in visit. She was on time, friendly, and made sure both pups were cared for and happy. I I appreciated her attention to detail and the updates she provided. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and thoughtful pet care!”

Rachel S.

“Peter cared for our 3 large dogs with no hesitation! He was a great communicator and very flexible with our schedule. We would definitely trust him to come back any time!”

About: I'm a theatre teacher and dog lover and with school out for the summer, I have some extra time and energy to spend it keeping your furry family member happy, safe, and loved while you're away! As an educator, I bring patience, attentiveness, and a strong sense of responsibility to pet care. Whether it’s energetic walks, relaxing cuddle time, or sticking to special routines, I tailor each visit to your pet’s unique personality and needs. You can count on me for: 🎭 Daily walks, playtime, and enrichment 🐾 Drop-ins, house sitting, or overnight care 🦴 Feeding, meds, and updates with adorable photos 🏠 Respectful, tidy care of your home during visits I co-parent a sweet rescue Pitanese named Atlas, but he will not be present in my home when your dog(s) come to stay. I will only care for one dog family in my home at a time (up to 2 dogs.) As a devoted dog parent, I know how important it is to trust someone with your family member(s), and I’d be honored to provide a reliable, loving presence while you’re away. Let’s connect—I can’t wait to meet your furry family! I will be off from my teaching job throughout much of the summer, so will have a very flexible schedule to spend with your pet(s)! I live in the bottom unit of a duplex home and have full access to a fully fenced in yard. My upstairs neighbor has a dog, but doesn't use the yard with his dog and exits through a separate entrance. I'm a gardener, so your dog will always be supervised while playing in the yard. We live near trails and a park, so there is plenty of opportunity for enrichment on walks as well. I allow my dog on the sofa, but if this is not a habit you want your dog to pick up, I will follow those instructions. I have past experience giving oral medication, caring for senior dogs, puppies, and dogs in recovery from an injury.

“Carolina was awesome! She took great care of Daisy and kept us updated with lots of pictures and videos every day. Would definitely hire her again!”

Marcell M.

“Once again, Teresa nailed it with taking care of our dog as scheduled. We used her 3 times during our stay in the area. Great communication through texts pictures and video. I would highly recommend Teresa and will use her again if we visit the area again with our 80 lbs Bernedoodle in tow.”

Renee H.

“The did great for Anders, especially Nancy & her insulin inection, which means the babies must have enjoyed having him around. He was super friendly with me & the 3 kitties. I really appreciate that he took notes on our routine & where supplies were.”

Diana K.

“Lizzy was an excellent sitter, she was able to come support last minute and was patient with some issues getting in the building which I really appreciated! She was great with Dexter and completed everything that was required during a couple quick visits. Would recommend 10/10 and I hope to work with her again. Thank you Lizzy!”

Derek G.

“Dave did a great visiting our two dogs. He gave great updates and made sure the dogs were happy and healthy during his visits.”

Matti G.

“Lindsay was awesome! This was our first night away from the dogs where we decided to leave them at home and have a drop-in dog sitter. I was nervous, but Lindsay did a great job and put us at ease. She checked in on our dogs 3 times and provided detailed updates and sent us photos during each visit. We’ll definitely have Lindsay watch our dogs again in the future!”

Kelsey F.

“Sarah was always on time with visits and provided a photo checkin every time. My kitties seemed to love her based on the photos and they were well cared for. Sarah was also responsive to messages prior to my trip. Thank you, Sarah! The kitties look forward to seeing you again soon!”

Madeline G.

“Steven was great! You can tell he’s a animal lover. He watched my cats in my home for 3 days and it was amazing to get photos while i was away. I know i’ll be booking him again if he’s ever available to watch my pets again. He even convinced my anti-social cat to sniff his hand and come out of hiding which is huge for him. I feel bad that my house was a wreck from packing but he seemed to manage just fine. He also brought my packages in from outside which was super nice!”
