Sonja had such a gentle demeanor with our 12 week old pup. From the start, she asked for a meet and greet, which was a very professional endeavor and immediately put her head and shoulders above other Rover sitters.

It was my first time using Rover and I’m so happy I did! Sabrina was so quick to respond and accommodating when my work schedule ran later than expected. Zina is also wore out in the best way, the photos I got from Sabrina completely explain why Zina is so wore out lol she played so much and enjoyed her time there. Would book again if ever in the DC area again!

My maltipoo had a great time with Asma! Asma quickly helped him feel situated in a new environment, and she was caring, fun, and patient with him (she also shared some new treats for him which he loved). Asma’s also very responsive and sent nice updates of their day together. Looking forward to the next time!

Pat was the first dog sitter I ever entrusted with my dog, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He is incredibly kind, attentive, and truly cares for my pup. He keeps me updated with pictures every few hours and always responds quickly to any messages. I have complete peace of mind knowing my dog is in great hands every Tuesday with Pat. I wouldn’t trust anyone else the way I trust him!

About: Hi! I‘m Mai, a true dog lover without a dog (for low!) I don’t have the capacity to care for one full-time, but still want dogs in my life. That’s why I’m her: to give your pup the love, attention and belly rubs they deserve. I‘m very reliable (maybe it’s my German passport 😀) and I’ll care for your dog as if they were my own. I have didn’t the past 2 years caring for my friends dogs - including wakings and overnights. I have taken care of my friends dogs (3 dogs) while traveling and really enjoy being with them. For larger dogs (40lbs and plus), I can only accommodate larger dogs if they are good at walking on the leash and don’t start pulling heavily. I’m very petite (5‘1). Despite regular workouts I don’t think I could go up against these dogs. lol I work from home and currently taking a break from traveling, so I’m also available during the weekend. Mondays and Fridays are very flexible, so that I can go on walks with your pups. I live in an apartment, so I can only take care of smaller dogs. So far they have all enjoyed it. Most of them like to look out of my floor to ceiling windows. :)

About: It is rare that I ever meet a cat or dog that I don't get along with within minutes of meeting. I have lived with cats all my life but also love taking care of and playing with dogs. I am currently unemployed due to a layoff so I am very flexible timewise. I also love animals and walking around the city so this could be great for now. My fiancé and I currently live in a three-floor rowhome with a small fenced-in backyard. We have two cats and one is not a huge fan of dogs but can stay on his own floor during the day.

Karen and Maria were excellent with my new rescue puppy, Honey! They sent me updates throughout the day with pictures and i could tell Honey was having a great time with their dogs. There was a slight incident with Honey getting ahold of someone she shouldn't have, but they were quick to intervene and get medical attention.. and everything seems to be fine! Would definitely recommend and use them again.

This week was the first doggy daycare for my pup with Matty. It went splendidly. We met initially so we all could meet (including my dog). Dropping and picking my pup up was seamless. And the actual daycare went amazingly—we got plenty of pics and updates. Matty already knows we intend to be regular customers.

Mai is one of the biggest dog lovers I know - she'll stop on the street to say hi to all dogs and admire how cute they are no matter the breed or size. She's taken care of my 3-year old cockapoo several times now, and he always has the best time with her. She's incredibly attentive and gives LOTS of cuddles. I always feel at ease knowing he's with her. As a person, Mai is also very responsible and thoughtful. She's someone I completely trust and I'd feel 100% confident leaving any dog in her care. Your pup will be in really good hands!

Ethan has watched my cat numerous times and I've always felt that she was in good hands. She is an easily spooked asthmatic cat with 3 legs and I know he's patient with her. I like the pictures he sends when he stops by for a visit. We also have an easily spooked rescue dog and she loves Ethan even though she doesn't usually like men. I would trust him walking her as well. Thanks Ethan!
