“Leila was wonderful with my two kittens! They’re usually pretty shy but warmed right up to her on her first drop-in. She sent pictures/updates each day and took great care of them. I would recommend Leila to anyone looking for a responsible, trustworthy petsitter.”

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life, especially cats, so I naturally understand their Needs and unique personalities. Even though I’ve never owned a dog of my own, I’ve cared for many dogs through friends and family — from puppies who need full attention to older dogs who need extra patience and care. I also have experience giving pets oral medication, so I’m comfortable following special routines. My goal is always to give each pet the same love, comfort, and attention I’d want for my own! I am currently a full-time student at Howard University so I have class everyday. With any free time I have on my hands not studying or in class, I’d love to help! Im happy to take your pets on walks, give them fresh food and water, and spend quality time with them so they feel cared for while you're away. Im gentle and attentive, making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Building trust is very important to me, and treat one like my own! :)
About: My own golden retriever lived to nearly 15, and caring for her through every stage of life is what gave me a real understanding of what dogs need and what their owners worry about. I don’t take that lightly when I’m caring for someone else’s dog and I treat each one as if they were my own! I’ve worked with dogs of all ages and personalities, from brand-new puppies to seniors, and from the shyest wallflowers to the most enthusiastic greeters. I’m comfortable with leash training for puppies and administering supplements and medications for older dogs with established routines. Midday walks are one of my favorite parts of the day, and I’m also available for drop-in visits when that’s all your pup needs. Either way, you can count on your dog getting genuine, attentive care while you’re away. As a remote worker, I have a flexible day and would love to break it up with outdoor activities with your dog! Aside from times when I have meetings, I am available to go and let out your pet or go for an outdoor activity. I always defer to the owners instructions for a visit and follow them to a tee. Whether your dog just needs a quick outing and play time inside or a longer walk in a certain route, I am able to provide whatever your dog needs to have a good visit!
“Gracie did a fantastic job watching my cat, who needed twice a day pill administration. She was very communicative and I appreciated her sending all the pics and videos! Will definitely book with Gracie if I need a sitter in the future!”

“Maria was awesome! She took such great care of my cat for a week and sent tons of cute photos and detailed updates. I came home to a very happy cat. I’d recommend Maria to anyone looking for a sitter!”

“Emily took amazing care of Prince! She sent us amazing updates everyday and provided perfect personality pictures. We will definitely use her again!”

“Navya took such great care of our kitty cat while we were away! She went to check on her the same time every day and sent updates and pictures about how she was doing. Zuzu was a happy girl when we got home and very well taken care of! We will definitely book Navya again when we’re in need of someone to take care of our baby.”


“Will did a great job watching Ez & Eve! He provided proactive updates with fun photos and descriptions and it was clear that our kittens enjoyed play time with Will. He was reliability, onetime, and updates showed he followed our pet-care instructions. We will trust Will for future drop in and vacations.”

“Natalie was fantastic with my cat Ziggy. She got some great pictures of my cat playing with his favorite toys and enjoying his favorite food. I highly recommend Natalie if you are looking for someone to keep your furry baby happy.”

“Nicholas is the BEST cat sitter I have ever found for my cat Aries. My cat has a big personality and loves attention. Nicholas gives him all the love and affection while also making sure to maintain the food and litter while I am away. He is also on a prescription diet and Nicholas follows the important feeding schedule perfectly. It gives me such great peace of mind knowing my little talkative fluff ball is being so well taken care of. Thank you!”


“Kiley was absolutely great and patient with my cat and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She was communicative, reliable, and clearly cared a lot about making sure my cat was comfortable and well taken care of. I came home to a very happy cat and would definitely book with her again!”

About: I just graduated from law school and am studying for the bar exam this summer! I definitely need to get out of the house for breaks throughout the day and would love to spend that time walking your dog:) I am available during the day most days, as I am currently studying. So all of my time outside of pet care is dedicated to that! I have an apartment, so for boarding dogs they should be ok with an elevator! I try to take dogs out every 2 hours depending on their needs. There are a lot of green spaces near my apartment, as well as a dog park 4!blocks away!
“Jayla is such an incredible sitter!! She was wonderful enough to come over prior to staying with my cat to do an in-person walkthrough, and send me several photos every day of Henry! I have no doubt she was incredibly kind and caring toward him, and she is a lovely person to communicate with in general! I will definitely be calling Jayla again in the future:)”

Dupont Circle pet parents share their Rover experiences
Reyhan was wonderful! She took excellent care of our two cats when we travelled for 10 days. At each check-in she not only took basic care of our cats but also played with them, shared adorable photos, and alerted us early about potential issues with their energy levels or food. They turned out to be just fine, but we appreciated knowing that they were being cared for by someone who was so attentive. We felt at ease when we were on our vacation. Thank you, Reyhan!

Carrie is the sweetest. Our two tabbies Baxter and Izzy warmed up to her quickly, which they have a hard time with anyone else. She made sure the played with them and even followed instructions on playing with our quirky cat Baxter. We will be definitely be booking Carrie again. ❤️
