As always Lynette and Vincent go above and beyond in caring for my pet. At this point I would not even consider another sitter. They send me photos of him several times a day as well as let me know what is going on with him.

We love Branden! Quavo and Branden hit it off immediately on his first stay, so we had to return! We have an American Bully and Branden was familiar with the breed and that made me (Mom) feel good! Branden instills good training habits with Quavo when he stays, he eats his food (which he normally doesn't when away from home with other sitters), and gets good exercise in. Branden provides routine updates, very responsive to all types of communication and extremely professional. Branden was available for a last minute request and we appreciated his flexibility. Branden is our guy and we will definitely book again in the future! Highly recommend!

Mark and his family took such great care of zuki! Mark took the time to ask questions about Zuki’s routine, play style, and training behaviors that I have been working on. Appreciated all the updates and pictures. Zuki clearly had a great time and returned home happy and tired from all his fun.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Zulma. From the moment I walked into her house she made me feel completely at ease about leaving my dogs in her care. She asked thoughtful questions about their routines and treated them as if they were her own. Throughout my time away, she provided regular photos and videos, that brought me so much peace of mind. It was clear they were happy, well cared for and completely comfortable with her. I was able to actually enjoy my trip knowing they were in capable hands. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and generally caring I will highly recommend Zulma. I’m so grateful to have found her.

Lia’s communication is always on point! Charlie and I recently moved to DC and looking for a new sitter. Lia was honestly the best sitter for Charlie! She went above and beyond for Charlie even accommodated to his spoiled picky eating behavior 😂. Honestly I want to gate keep Lia but I think everyone deserves to have a sitter like her.

This was my first experience with a dog sitter, and I must admit I was a little nervous. However, Elissa was incredibly reliable; she sent updates and photos, which really brightened my day and helped ease my worries. I appreciate her taking such good care of my dog, especially on such short notice. I will definitely hire her again and recommend her to my family and friends.

Tommy was excellent. I had to leave last minute for a work trip and he was more than happy to pick up Goggins. We messaged and met before the days agreed on. I was stressed about work and making sure Goggins was going to a safe place Tommy reassured me he got everything taken care of. He would send me pictures and updates. He dropped Goggins off with everything I gave him and it was an overall great experience. Oh, and it was my first time using Rover! I will definitely rebook with Tommy!

I would recommend Joseph as a pet sitter and would entrust him with watching our pups again in the future. Thanks for taking care of our babies!

Chloe seemed to have had a great time with Kelly & Maurice - especially based on how tired she was when she got home! :) I received lots of pictures and videos that were appreciated. She enjoyed playing with the other pups during her time there and was clearly being spoiled while I was away. I felt comfortable being away from her for a few days while on a much needed vacation! Thanks again for making Chloe feel at home away from home!

Myesha is such an angel! This is the second time I’ve booked with her almost 6 months apart. When I went for drop off, my Prada instantly became a big puppy. You could tell she remembered her, enjoyed her, and was really happy to be back. That means a lot to me! Even on pick up, Prada was prancing around so happily as if she would see her again. That energy was so genuine and I truly appreciate Myesha. I’m not even sure Prada would let me book with someone else! ♥️.

Silke is the best. She cares deeply about the dogs and makes sure they are happy and having fun. We are always so sad to leave our dog behind, but are genuinely so happy to leave her with Silke that we are almost sad to pick her up and return her to a more boring life. Silke is communicative and flexible which is very much appreciated.
