“Anmei was an exceptional rover who seemed to care for Miley and give her the attention she needed. I received updates and pictures throughout the stay to make sure she got her exercise and was kept safe and happy. Miley was also accompanied by her partner and her dog which ensured additional care and activities. Neighbor was also very peaceful and dog-friendly. I highly recommend Anmei to anyone looking for a sitter in the area!”

“Jorge and Alejandra were amazing sitters! They sent us some wonderful pictures of our dog and were great at communicating. Very flexible and accommodating when our travel plans changed. Would highly recommend!”

About: Hi there! I’m so excited to meet your furry family member. Whether your pup is a high energy explorer or a professional snuggler, I’ve got the experience to make sure they’re happy, safe, and loved. Why Choose Me? • Rescue-Ready & Trusted: I am an approved volunteer and foster for several shelters and rescues throughout Northern Virginia (NOVA). • Lifelong Animal Lover: From hamsters to bunnies, I’ve cared for them all! Dogs, however, have always held the top spot in my heart. • Communication is Key: You’ll get plenty of photos and updates so you can see exactly how much fun your pup is having while you’re away. I treat every guest exactly like my own pup Ruby. Your pup will get all the belly rubs, structured playtime, and attention they can handle. I have a petite pup at home which I take care of - we love to have a set routine together, so first thing potty morning as soon as we wake up, enrichment + crate rest time, then at lunch time she will get another break, then she is free to play/follow me around until dinner then we take a long walk and then wind down for the night. I also am a hybrid worker so am able to be home usually on the weekends + monday and friday! I make sure there is mental enrichment ready for my pup whether its a frozen lickmat, snuffle toy, etc. and designated crated rest time. I think its very important for dogs to be on a routine and get the enrichment and exercise needed as well as enough rest so that they can be the happiest dog they can be!
“Vidhi did a wonderful job taking care of Buddy. Communication was smooth throughout his stay, and she sent daily pictures, which gave me peace of mind. I also loved that she also has a mini Goldendoodle, so Buddy had a buddy to keep him company! He looked very comfortable and happy in her home. I would definitely recommend Vidhi, and I have booked her again for next weekend.”


“Gail is always great with Bubba! He has such a great time and she always sends him home with some extra treats. This time the treats are in the shape of a B for Bubba and it was so thoughtful!”
“Biscuit had a great stay with Ellis! She sent lots of pictures and an update every day. She was flexible and understanding when our flight was canceled and we got back later than intended.”


“Derek and his family were wonderful with Jace. This was my first time ever using Rover for boarding my dog, and they made the experience so comfortable and easy. I received pictures and updates throughout the stay, letting me know he was doing well and having a good time. Will definitely have Jace stay with them again!”

“Highly recommend!! Marcus is excellent! He helped us out at the last minute and took wonderful care of our Sparky for 2.5 weeks. We will definitely be using him again in the future!”

“I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for taking such great care of Cody while I was away. We are lucky to have such a wonderful sitter, and I’m so grateful for your help. Thanks again for everything!”

“Karen has watched Ruby & Albert a couple of times & she is fabulous. She takes them for lots of walks and snuggles them. Plus she is great communicating with us and telling us how they are doing. Karen is wonderful.”


“Ksenia was amazing watching our dog Max. She takes notes at the meet and greet and immediately made me feel comfortable knowing Max would be in loving caring hands. She knows a bunch about dogs and she was so easy to communicate with. I am always worried to leave my dog with someone and this time having Ksenia watch him I was at ease. Max had a great visit and I knew what he was up to daily and got tons of pics and videos. He had fun exploring her yard and a great time haning out with her. At the end Ksenia also sent me some really excellent quality pics her roommate took of Max....I am over the moon with these pictures! Will definitely have Ksenia watch Max again!!”

“My 10 year old beagle had a great time. Our other dog just passed, so this was Pepper’s first time without her lifelong friend. The sitters were very responsive and flexible. I love that they were a family unit. Sent pictures on request. Walked her as needed. And helped her burn energy! Would use them again.”

“We are so, so grateful to have found Gil and family to watch our sweet Henry whenever we're away! Henry is getting up there in age and pretty lazy, but he loves and needs people to be around more often than not. There's almost always someone at home at Gil's house, and Henry just adores the older kids, too. We get photos during Henry's stay and never feel worried about how he's doing. We'll always book Gil and fam whenever possible!”

About: I have cared for animals for most of my life and have extensive experience providing attentive, compassionate care for pets of all ages and needs. Most recently, I raised a Carolina Dog named Jake, who passed away. I am comfortable with feeding, walking, exercising, administering basic care, and ensuring animals feel safe and well cared for while their owners are away. I am dependable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I am also available to provide service weekends and holidays as needed. I'm generally available, as I currently work from home. Care instructions will be passed on customer needs and requests. You pet would have company during the day, in a safe, clean environment. I live in Dulles Station in Herndon, adjacent to a dog park and walking trails. There is also plenty of room to walk in and around my immediate neighborhood.
“Jennifer was very responsive from my first inquiry to during Luna's stay at her house. She was great about sending updates and photos. My only concern was that Luna was quite dehydrated and drank a huge bowl of water once back at my house. Overall I was pleased with the service. Thanks Jennifer.”

“Thank you for taking care of Flash. Was definitely a new experience for him as a switch from a previous caretaker - this experience was awesome for Flash - an experience to interact with Arjun, play Fetch and in the process to even get trained and get Flash used to the atmosphere so quickly 🙏 This was a great exposure and I am confident enough to keep my Flash in a responsble family 🙏”


“Desiree is friendly and great to work with. We were very happy with her flexibility with our drop off and pick up times. PJ was obviously very comfortable at her home and was well taken care of while we were out of town. Also, her dog Chase was wonderful - a very nice pup!”

“Mariel was fantastic. We knew our Minnie was in good hands. We received daily pictures and updates showing us how quickly Minnie settled in to her routine at their house. We knew she was being showered with love while we were away. Awesome experience! We would highly recommend Mariel as a pet sitter.”

Dulles pet parents share their Rover experiences
Erica is an amazing sitter! From the moment my partner and I reached out to see if she could watch our dog for about two weeks while we were out of the country, she was responsive, communicative, and professional. A few days before our trip, Erica welcomed us into her home for a meet-and-greet to ensure we (and our dog) felt comfortable with her and her two dogs. Throughout our time away, she sent daily updates that included photos and videos, giving us complete peace of mind. Erica truly went above and beyond. She took our dog on daily walks, watched movies with her, treated her to plenty of yummy snacks, spent time with her in her courtyard, and, most importantly, made her feel loved and cared for. We are incredibly grateful for the exceptional care and kindness Erica showed our dog. We highly recommend her!

Sydney was a wonderful pet sitter for my dog. I appreciate Sydney being flexible and helping me out on short notice. She took really great care of my dog and sent me lots of picture updates while I was away, which I appreciated a lot. My dog looked very happy and got lots of exercise and cuddles
This is our second time having Daphne sit Bryce, and they were absolutely AMAZING with him! Kept in touch everyday with great communication, pictures, and asked questions when they were ever concerned about anything. She was able to accommodate to his needs and was so flexible that it made everything such a weight off of our shoulders. Bryce felt more than comfortable, he was right at home!! We would 10/10 recommend her to anyone who needs sitting services, especially if she’s able to be available for you. No complaints, concerns, regrets..just puts you right as ease about your fur baby while you’re away and that’s such a huge help. Thank you so much!!! Again and again, we will always appreciate you, your time, efforts, and dedication to making sure they’re treated as if they’re your own!!

We had an incredible experience with Amethyst for our pet. It took no time for her to understand our pet’s nature to start taking care of him. She was very punctual with her updates which made our vacation go so smoothly. We feel so lucky to have found Amethyst for our pet’s boarding needs!
Amanda is amazing! Gizmo had a tough time getting used to things at first, but Amanda was so patient and flexible with his schedule that he felt much more at ease. She’s incredibly caring, and we really appreciated her daily updates. She kept us in the loop about any concerns and made us feel confident that Gizmo was in great hands. I would highly recommend her, and I’d definitely trust her with Gizmo again in the future.
Shushmita is so warm-spirited. My daughter and I sensed it right away when we met her and her pup Niko. She watched my dogs while we were on a family vacation in another state. She sent us photos and videos and responded to my many check-ins. She even cooked for them when they ran out of the bland diet I supplied. They are both thoroughly spoiled! I will definitely book with her again.
