“Canaan was able to make a last minute call, coming to walk two dogs! He was patient with meeting new pups, listening to directions, and truly enjoying the experience!”


About: I've taken care of all different kinds of pets since I was 15, ranging from small dogs like westies and dachshunds to big dogs like pitbulls and Newfoundlands, as well as cats, and small mammals like guinea pigs. I work from home so I can watch your pet at my house, or I can stop by and sit them for a while, and I also have experience house sitting pets. I currently work from home and make my own hours, so I can work around your pet's schedule. I can take care of them at my house or watch them in their own home. I have a fenced in yard and multiple floors with pet gates on each level to keep your pets separated from own if it is needed.
About: I have always been an animal person, and have been a regular dogsitter and catsitter for friends and family for over 10 years. I love caring for all types of critters, from little balls of energy to to more mellow senior animals, and will try my best not to spoil yours too much (depending on how quickly they steal my heart.) I specialize in enrichment activities, such as walks and play sessions, but will also enjoy just hanging out with your little buddy in any capacity. I'm currently off of school for the summer, so I have lots of available time in the day to care for your animals! I am generally available any day of the week between 8 AM and 10 PM, except for Sunday, when I am not available until 11 AM. (6-8 AM is also a possibility if necessary.) I always make sure to respect my clients' homes and keep their belongings safe from rowdy playing. I will always be sure to read your instructions for entry carefully, and I am good at cleaning up a mess if there is one made.
“Christine was great with our dog, Ron!!! He bonded so well with her and she had him on his schedule everyday. Our dog needs a ton of attention and Christine was great for that. She cuddled Ron when he needed and played with him regularly! We take our dog out 3-4 times a day and Christine hit everything on the mark. Her communication with me was very quick and helpful. I highly recommend Christine for quick visits or long trips! She can work around most schedules and leaves you peace of mind for your pet. Thanks again Christine! Will definitely be reaching out again in the future!”

“Taylor has been walking Mia for a couple weeks now and have been exceptional every time. She is always on time and sends a lot of pictures! Mia also loves being walked by Taylor. I would highly recommend Taylor for your walk and stay needs!”

“Amazing job taking care of my little buddy! I am Definitely going to use his services again even the time to give my dog some extra water when his bowl was empty. I came home and my dog was happy..”

About: I’ve had pets and dogs in my family since I was 12. My neighbors growing up always trusted me to dog sit or walk their dogs while they managed their busy schedules. I’ve helped friends and classmates with their pets in my free time during grad school while they traveled or needed to study for exams. I love walking so why not take a furry friend with me! I’m currently working from home and doing freelance work so I have a lot of free time. My schedule is pretty flexible. I can work around your schedule! I will primarily be walking your dog in parks, trails, and neighborhoods with sidewalks to ensure safety. If you have a yard available, even better!
“Dominique made our trip to DC so much better. She sent a card summarizing the walk and where they went, how far and the doggy business. We really appreciated Dominique!”

“Susannah is a wonderful dog walker. She obviously loves dogs. She’s reliable always on time and Gracie gets great walks. I will definitely hire her again.”

About: I’ve been around all animals since I was a young child. I will treat your babies like they are my own. I have alot of experience with puppies and senior dogs. Fur babies are always prioritized. I am available to take the dogs out 2-3 times a day as needed. Most of the time if I’m in the house the dogs with be relaxing and cuddling with me or playing with each other. If I leave or go to work the dogs are crated. I have several parks nearby so that your baby can get out, stretch, and get fresh air. I can crate your baby as well. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your fur baby.

About: My partner, Tae, and I are parents to a 7 year Maltipoo named Luna! While we are new to Rover, we’ve been dog sitting for friends and neighbors as a team for 3 years (and individually much longer). Tae, Luna, and I love other dogs and are happy to welcome other dogs into our family for whatever length of time! We are also able to provide walks and visits locally. Our Luna has separation anxiety and many fears (we really hate the vet, thunderstorms, LED lights, tin foil, Android ringtones...) so we are quite experienced dealing with anxiety and medication administration. Tae and I both have flexible work schedules and will not accept bookings unless we know we can offer the time and attention your dog needs! We work as a pet parent team and both have flexible work schedules! Depending on your pet’s needs, we can coordinate to make sure they are not left alone for longer than you are comfortable with (if at all). We love going on long walks and hanging out at dog parks and dog-friendly breweries and are happy to include these activities to the extent you are comfortable, otherwise we always enjoy snuggles at home :) We have a fenced yard (a little gem in the city!) and a friendly Maltipoo! Dogs are welcome on furniture, but we can respect whatever your pet’s routine is.
“Dylan has been so great with my dog. She treats him just as I would. Dylan is not just reliable; she's become an integral part of my dog's daily routine and I never worry when Dylan is taking care of him. Dylan's communication is top-notch too. She sends me updates and photos, giving me peace of mind during the workday. She goes the extra mile, quite literally, by varying their routes, so my dog stays engaged and stimulated. I couldn't recommend Dylan more highly. She's not just a dog walker; she's a trusted companion to my beloved pet. If you're looking for a dog walker who genuinely cares, look no further. Dylan is simply the best!”

Emma is the BEST!! She takes great care of my dog Levi and I feel at ease knowing that she is the one visiting him. She always spends extra time giving him pets and treats, and she also sends wonderful report cards for me to view. So grateful for Emma! Cannot recommend her enough.

We are so fortunate to have found Sarah on Rover! We could not have asked for a more patient and understanding friend to our Tilley, and highly recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter! Great communication and flexibility during her visit, would definitely book her again!

Ivan was a hero to me and my little guy-swooping in for a last minute walk when I was going to be away for an extended period. He was very communicative, Amos was well taken care of, and apparently Ivan is a popular guy on our block-also regularly caring for another pup up the street. Would definitely recommend to anyone!

Christine was great with our dog, Ron!!! He bonded so well with her and she had him on his schedule everyday. Our dog needs a ton of attention and Christine was great for that. She cuddled Ron when he needed and played with him regularly! We take our dog out 3-4 times a day and Christine hit everything on the mark. Her communication with me was very quick and helpful. I highly recommend Christine for quick visits or long trips! She can work around most schedules and leaves you peace of mind for your pet. Thanks again Christine! Will definitely be reaching out again in the future!
