About: I have worked as a professional pet sitter and walker in the past. I will treat your pet as if they were my own! I I can watch your pet on weekends or days I am working from home. I have a hybrid schedule and love to take breaks to walk my own dog and hopefully yours in the future. My boyfriend and I have our own dog who get along well with other dogs. We live in a townhouse and have an in fenced grassy courtyard right out front and plenty of places to go walking.
“I have booked Ann twice now to come drop in on my puppy. She has always done a great job taking care of him and is super communicative and you can tell she enjoys caring for pets. I highly recommend her!!”

“Esther is great! She kindly came over to help on short notice, and was very professional and sweet with our dog. She sent great pictures and videos to let us know how our dog was doing. Your pet will be in good hands with her, and I’d definitely request her help again!”
“Orianne was great watching my two cats while I was gone for a week! She was able to do a meet and greet which was great. I got updates and photos from her daily. And they seemed totally normal and happy when I got home!”

“First time using Rover for pet drop ins but worked with Nicole (dog walking) before so I knew my kitties would be in good hands. And they absolutely were! Nicole was awesome and kept me abreast of everything. Plus my cats love her! Thanks so much Nicole!”

“Birdie and I love Samantha! She’s so friendly and always adaptable when things are last minute which is usually when Birdie and I need help! Lots of love and belly scratches! My girl is so lucky.”

“Dani is the best cat sitter and we totally recommend her! She pays attention to detail and instructions, you can tell she really enjoys to spend time with your fur babies🐾😊”

“Our kitties did great with Erin! She was reliable and took into account their special feeding needs. We really appreciated the daily feedback and updates.”

“Amanda was a fantastic pet sitter! She was very communicative throughout the time I was away and would send me pictures and updates on how my cat was doing! I would highly recommend booking any pet services with Amanda!”

“Daniel was responsive, professional, and great with our dog who can be somewhat shy. He braved the triple digit temperatures to ensure she was getting out for bathroom breaks. Highly recommend!”

“Kristina was amazing with my 8-month-old kitten! My little furball can be a mix of sweet and mischievous, but Kristina handled her like a pro. She took great care of her, kept me updated with pictures and messages, and made sure everything was just right at home. When I got back, my kitten looked happy, relaxed, and maybe even a little disappointed that her new best friend had left! It’s clear Kristina gave her plenty of love and attention. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and great with pets, Kristina’s the one to call. Highly recommend!”

“Jennifer did an amazing job taking care of both of our cats! She provided daily updates with photos and even found the cat dental mouthwash in our laundryroom that we had purchased a long time ago, but forgot to put in the water (one of our cats was diagnosed with a serious case of gingivitis right before we left, and I was very stressed out about it). Jennifer played with our shy kitties and gave them lots of attention. She provided daily feedback about the cats' well-being.”

“Cindy took excellent care of our kitties and was so kind and understanding when I realized I had mixed up the dates requested. She took the time to get to know our cats names and they were in great hands with her!”

About: I love caring for my dogs! Growing up, we always had a family dog, so I’ve become very attached to fur babies. Currently, I have two adorable dogs that I adopted overseas and brought to the US because they are my forever babies! I would also love to take your fur buddies for a walk, play with them at the park, and care for them the same way I care for mine. I work late shifts, so I’m available to drop by in the mornings and usually in the evenings. I’m more flexible on weekends and can adjust to your needs as necessary. I recently moved into an apartment, so I don’t have a yard for my dogs to run around. Luckily, there’s a nearby dog park, and we go there almost every day as long as the weather permits. I make sure my dogs get the daily exercise they need, even when they don’t get to play at the park. A 30‑minute to one‑hour walk is never an issue for us! Unfortunately, I’m unable to care for your dogs in my home because my babies were traumatized by encounters with other dogs. On multiple occasions, they were approached by unleashed dogs while we were walking, and they’ve been very defensive ever since.

About: I have experience caring for elder dogs with medical issues such as hearing loss, eyesight loss, seizures, and general elder issues. You can rest easy knowing I will take care of your dog as if they were my own! I'm available anytime any day! I can take your dog for a quick walk, a long adventure, or just hang out with them! I cater to the dogs needs, not my own. I will treat your dog as my own, giving them the love and respect they deserve. I also recognize it can be nerve-wracking to let a stranger into your house, I can assure you I will be respectful and follow all rules of your property. Do you have a strict no-shoe policy? No problem! Do you have a strict shoe-on policy? Also not a problem! I'm here for you and your fur-loved one!
“Abby was amazing and took such good care of my cat! She was communicative, provided thorough updates and gave my cat so much love while I was gone. I can’t wait to use Abby again in the future!”

“Ali was punctual, easy to work with, and good with Mr. Bear. We came back to a happy and relaxed pup. Responsive communication and plenty of pictures along the way. Ali did drop in visits 3x a day for our dog and I would recommend him for yours.”

About: Dog owner in the DMV with experience walking friends', families' and neighbors' dogs, providing top notch care. Experience with dogs of all sizes and ages. I work from home 4 days a week and depending on my meeting schedule am available for mid-day short walks or drop-ins. Always happy to discuss timing that works for everyone. I abide by the instructions set by the client, but place a premium on pet safety. Pets will not be forced into harnesses until they feel comfortable with me, I take care to make sure no pets escape, and that I leave every home as I found it.

Yulia did a great job taking care of Milo while I was away! She left detailed reports every check in, was timely in her responses & check in times, and even helped clean up a spilled rice mess in the kitchen after Milo chewed through the bag. Would recommend her and book again!

Michelle was an excellent cat-sitter for my two boys while I was gone for a week. I appreciated her attention to detail, responsiveness and proactiveness (e.g., cleaning up a hairball situation without being asked, etc!). She was very easy to communicate with and I would definitely recommend her services!!

Amanda was incredible!!! We completely forgot to send over the pet care instructions and were unable to communicate due to not having service and she still did literally every single thing that we told her about at the meet and greet. She was kind and attentive and the animals all loved her!
