“Allegra was amazing!! Probably the best dog sitter we've ever had. Very communicative, flexible, and on top of things (plus my dogs loved her). If you want to have a stress-free time, you should totally hire Allegra to watch your pets. I know that if I ever need a sitter in the future, she is going to be who I go to first.”

“Rosemary took great care of my dog Beau. While I was away she provided me updates and pictures which made me feel at ease while I was away. When I came home the house was clean and tidy. I appreciate the love and care that Rosemary gave my boy.”
“Asal was a fabulous sitter for our very small puppy! He has lots of energy and isn’t quite potty trained yet, but Asal took it all in stride. Her calm demeanor is so reassuring—you know right away that your pup is in superb hands! She was very detail oriented, wanting to be sure she knew all the ins and outs of his schedule and our preferences. I will definite hire her again!”

“Sanya is an amazing cat/house sitter! She braved terrible snow and ice conditions to stay with our Pretty, feed our birds, and salt our doorstep, and she sent us lots of pictures so we could see how happy and comfortable Pretty was (including one of a blissful Pretty after her evening brushing)! She cares for our cat like we do, and we are so grateful.”

“Almendra was wonderful. Bernese Mountain dog- Wilbur- and Samoyed puppy-Charlotte loved her. She was communicative and asked thoughtful questions to ensure the pups were well taken care of!”

“Rachael was amazing with my fur babies. It is so hard to find someone to trust but Rachael really made me feel at ease while on my trip, and my dogs made a new bff. We will definitely be booking with her again <3”

“Jenna stayed in our home, taking great care of Winnie the cat and following all instructions for feeding and care. She sent us pictures of a happy cat every day, allowing us to enjoy our time away without worry. She left everything clean and in good order at the end of her stay. Jenna was a caring and wonderful sitter for Winnie!”

“Vinnie did a great job with our anxious dog, Stax. She can sometimes be nervous with men and Vinnie went out of his way to do a meet and greet with her, as well as checking on all of her care instructions. He communicated well and we look forward to him taking care of Stax again soon.”

“McKenna is a wonderful dog sitter. She was attentive, caring, and communicative the whole time I was away from home. I received many pictures of my dog, and I could easily tell he was enjoying the time he spent with McKenna. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet or home sitter.”

“Danielle is awesome! She is great with my two cats, one of whom can be quite anxious. She keeps my place clean and neat, sends pics to keep me in the loop, responds to my texts and phone calls right away, etc. I've looked a long time for a great cat sitter. I finally found one in Danielle.”


“Sarah was amazing with my two dogs, Tito and Maddie! I just adopted Maddie two weeks ago and was nervous how they would do in a new place together. Sarah took all of my worry away and they did so well with her. She sent wonderful updates about their day with adorable photos. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were with Sarah and I highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies. I will definitely be using Sarah again in the future:)”

“This was my first time booking with Melinda and she exceeded all our needs, especially when my dog had a bad day health wise. I took the longest vacation in my adult life and overseas as well, she gave me peace of mind I needed to enjoy my trip. 1000% would rebook and recommend her wholeheartedly.”

“Kristen was an amazing dog sitter. She took great care of the dogs and updated me regularly on how they were doing. She so took great care of my home. She is great with the dogs and looks out for their every need”


“Joanne was attentive, loving and trustworthy during our recent trip. She made sure to document our pup so we don’t have to miss her too much. She was a wonderful caretaker for Layla and we won’t hesitate to book her again. Thanks so much!”

“Rasha was wonderful with our dog Pearl. There was good communication before to prepare for the stay. During the stay we were sent photos and updates throughout each day. We were completely at ease knowing Pearl was receiving loving care. Rasha did extra things we had not thought to ask about, like bringing in our mail. We will definitely be repeat clients!”

About: I’ve been working closely with dogs since I was four years old. We moved around a lot growing up and I would always helped her readjust to feel safe in new areas. I would get to know neighbors’ and friends’ pets, and with this early life experience, I’m a natural at getting pets to feel comfortable with me. I have experience working with senior dogs and dogs in recovery from injury, as well as dogs who have been rescued or traumatized by scary situations. I am currently in school, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I typically have 1-2 classes per weekday, either in the morning or at night, leaving the majority of my schedule open for pet care. I always make sure pets’ emotional needs are taken care of. For example, I pay very close attention to body language. At home, if my dog is ever purposefully ignoring me, I check with her to see if something is wrong.
Dranesville pet parents share their Rover experiences
We can't say enough great things about Rasha. She keeps us up to date, and sends lots of pictures. The way she talks about our dog shows us that she is not only taking care of her, but that she generally cares about her. That is such a comfort. She takes great care of the house too. We come home to a tidy house and a happy dog. She even thoughtfully offered to water the outdoor planters.

Ja was incredible - truly the best pet sitter we’ve ever had! She was so responsive and responsible, gave so much love and attention to our cat and dog, left the house in beautiful condition, and asked excellent questions to make sure she could care for them as best as possible. We truly couldn’t have asked for anyone better - we will absolutely be asking her to sit again and again! She made herself available for us on short notice and our cat and dog immediately fell in love with her and had a blast! Thank you so much, Ja!

Jake took such great care of our big lovable boy (145lb alaskan malamute) while we were out of state for a couple days. He sent us daily updates with pictures of our happy boy, which was so appreciated since this was our first time using a sitter. Amazing job!

Jacqueline was absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond when we booked her to house sit our two cats for 4 nights. Everyday we got 3-4 updates and plenty of photos. During our booking, it was evident that our cats were happy, healthy, and receiving plenty of attention and playtime. Lastly, Jacqueline was great with administering oral medication and attentive when monitoring our cats’ health issues. This was our first house sitting booking, and we couldn’t be more complimentary. Seriously a weight off of our shoulders!
