“Lovingly cared for my Bella when we took a quick trip to visit our new grandbaby… There were Daley photos sent, I love the fact that she only takes one dog at a time so your dog gets all their attention”

“Summer was perfect, from her communication to professionalism to just being completely understanding of dogs and pet parents. I was comfortable with my decision from start to finish. She asked questions if she wasn’t sure and left me tons of videos and photos to keep me updated. She has been my favorite and I will be using her services again (most likely only her lol, thanks Rover)”

“Pamela and Evan took such good care of Honey even though she's such a shy and nervous little dog. They were careful to take care of her and it looks like she even had a good time with the other dogs there. Pamela and Evan really seem like they love taking care of dogs. Honey stayed for the weekend and I got lots of pics and updates. They have a nice big fenced in backyard for the dogs to go out often too. Drop off and pick up was a breeze. It means a lot that Honey could be comfy on the furniture and bed with someone while I'm away. What sweet people! I would definitely book with them again soon!”

“Susan came highly recommended by a couple of our neighbors. After our meet&greet, we were very excited for our dog to spend a long weekend at their house. We were not disappointed. Bryce had a great time! Susan was very good in sending lots of updates, pictures and a few movies. They also took very good care of Bryce. It is the ideal set up for small to medium sized dogs. We will definitely contact them again in the future.”

“Anna took such great care of my dogs. They’re both anxious but she made them feel comfortable. She sent me pictures and updates daily without me asking for them and I really appreciated that. I drove 30 min knowing they would be in good hands. I would def recommend Anna! Thanks so much! 🙏🏻”

“My dog, Lola, enjoyed Thanksgiving week with Samantha and I’ve already booked the Christmas holiday week for her. That’s high praise for Samantha’s positive style & work ethics. ***** 5 stars!”

“Marla was so good to my Holly girl. We both felt comfortable with her and I really appreciated the daily photos and updates of Holly. Will definitely book with Marla again.”

“Karin did an awesome job, our communication was frequently, she understands what a dog mom needs. She sent me updates, photos and details. She take care of Noah like if was her own. She made me feel secure to be away from him. Ill recommend her 100%.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Cliff! He watched our pup for a full week, and from start to finish, everything was seamless and stress-free. Cliff treated our dog like his own, playtime, and plenty of love. He kept us updated with photos and little notes that showed just how happy and well cared for our dog was. When we picked her up, she was relaxed, happy, and clearly had a great time. We’ll absolutely be calling Cliff again next time we travel! Highly recommend—five stars🐾⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🐾”

“Roselie & Kevin are the best! Recommend to anyone! Our doggie is always sad to leave when we pick her up. She older with lots of special treatments and they don't miss a beat.”

“Excellent service and care of my dog. Tina and Rick gave me multiple photos, videos, and text updates throughout the day. When my dog started displaying signs of distress, Tina went the extra mile and slept on the couch next to him. Even though my dog wasn't on his best behavior, I feel he was well cared for and he even left with a goody bag!”

“Rex had such a good time at Tara’s. She sent us lots of pictures and videos throughout the week. We booked very last minute and they were able to accommodate us and made things easy. Thank you!”

“Patchareya was an excellent sitter for my pup. She communicates regularly and provides a lot of care and affection for small dogs. If you have a small dog I would highly recommend her for your future boarding needs. I know I will!”

“Anastasia was great with Ruby! We did a one night stay and Ruby had a blast. She was able to play with the other dogs. Anastasia even introduced Ruby to her cat which was Ruby's first opportunity to meet a cat. Very grateful for her care.”

“Takia to the rescue, i didn’t want to leave my Dog home for the Christmas Holiday and found out that she was available. I was so happy that my furbaby was able to stay with her where he receives lots of love. I always appreciate her services 💙”

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, raising and training my Yorkie, Remy, until his passing at 14, and my XL Bully, Zebo, for the past 11 years. Since joining Rover in 2021, I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. Young, senior, hyperactive, and socially reserved. I provide frequent walks, playtime, and even baths to ensure pups are happy, healthy, and cared for like family. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. As a lifelong dog owner, I start my mornings with walks and playtime to ensure pups get their energy out. Throughout the day, I dedicate time to feeding, cuddling, and engaging with each dog based on their needs. Whether that’s quiet companionship or active play. Evenings are for winding down with more walks and care, ensuring every pet feels loved and attended to as part of my family. In my home, I create a safe, comfortable environment where pets feel like part of the family. I provide frequent walks, designated playtime, and cozy spaces to relax. Pets receive plenty of love, attention, and care throughout the day, with routines tailored to their specific needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I ensure their routines remain consistent. From feeding schedules and walks to playtime and cuddles, I provide attentive care while keeping their environment clean, familiar, and stress-free. Whether in my home or theirs, pets are my priority, and I treat them as if they were my own.
Fairfax dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jenna took excellent care of Kaya while my husband and I were away for a week. Jenna sent regular updates on how Kaya was doing, her eating, and her walks (she graciously took her for 3 per day), and sent plenty of pictures! We don’t leave Kaya with a sitter often, but I can honestly say we were not worried about Kaya at all while we were away as we had complete peace of mind that she was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of with Jenna who communicated with us regularly. Kaya can be nervous around other dogs/animals and Jenna was very attentive to her needs. Jenna was also super flexible when our plane home delayed pick up upon arriving home. Couldn’t be more appreciative of her love and care for Kaya!

Our Havanese enjoyed his time with Anne! She was communicative with drop off/pickup and providing us updates. She bonded with our dog over the weekend he boarded with her. Taking him out for 4 walks, a pupcone at Starbucks and treats/meals we had provided - she was an ideal petsitter. We would definitely use her again if the opportunity comes up.

Craige accommodated my last-minute request to board my pup for 4 days and made my first Rover experience seamless. He was upfront and transparent during the meet-and-greet, answering all my questions and putting my mind at ease. His home is clean, and he was attentive to my pup’s needs, keeping me updated with photos. I highly recommend Craige for anyone looking for an affordable and reliable dog sitter!

Can’t be more thankful for Kaylah and her service! I received frequent updates throughout my dog’s stay, and I can tell my pup enjoyed her time there. Kaylah’s home is beautiful and my dog made herself at home quickly! Her own dog was so friendly and welcoming of my dog, they were fast napping friends. 10/10 would recommended
