“Very happy Susan and Michael could watch oreo while we went on vacation. It’s his home away from home. When I drop him off he just runs inside without looking back so he must have a great time and be well loved while there. Based upon the pictures of him on the couch and in bed he’d agree.”
“Alyce and her family are the absolute best! My dog absolutely loves staying with them and is obsessed with their sweet dog Mookie. They take amazing care of my dog when he is there and are super communicative. I could not recommend Alyce more!”
About: I offer a calm, attentive, and personalized care experience for both cats and dogs in the Tysons, McLean, and Great Falls area. With over 6 years of combined experience, I take time to understand each pet’s rhythm — from gentle brushing and quiet companionship to playful moments and frequent photo updates. My goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away. I work from home, so I have plenty of time during the week to care for your pets and give them lots of love and attention. On weekends, I love being outdoors—if your dog enjoys adventures, I’d be happy to bring them along for some fun and fresh air! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely, keep the environment safe and clean, and treat your space with care. I provide regular photo updates so you always feel connected. I occasionally offer boarding at my home for small dogs and cats who can peacefully coexist with my friendly resident cat. I do slow, careful introductions to ensure a stress-free stay. Please note that I do not board large dogs.
“Andy was a wonderful sitter! We are so thankful for his detail of care. He even noticed that our pups harness was a bit too small and got her a new one. So thankful to know we can go out of town and leave her in good care.”
“Veronica does a great job taking care of our dogs. They always come back happy, healthy, and tired. She sends photos during the stay and is communicative. I highly recommend Veronica to look after your pup!”
“Erin was kind, loving with Duke, and super communicative. One of the things I love best is receiving random pictures and videos of my little man when I’m away. Thanks so much for taking care of him!”
“I left my dog Archie with Francise for a couple days and she was great with him! He’s an anxious one and when I went to get him he seemed so happy and comfortable. Francise was great with accommodating me and had great communication while I was away.”
“Our dog had a great stay with Kelly. She was very responsive and provided photos throughout his stay. He arrived home the next day and napped for hours, which is a sign for our energetic dog how much fun he had with Kelly! We will definitely use her again!”
“I’ve been dragging my feet on leaving this review for one reason alone: I want to keep Elizabeth to myself! She is the best sitter I’ve been able to find on this app, and she is great at communicating both prior to a booking and during as well. My dog comes back happy and tired every time he stays with her and is always so excited to go back to her house. I trust her with my dog every time!”
“Danyelle has been awesome with my girl Allie. I have felt comfortable with leaving her each time and have not had any issues! I will continue to book with her. Thank you for taking such good care of my girl.”
“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!”
“Andrew is great and will take care of your dog as if it was his own. He is quick with responses if you have any questions and will send plenty of updates about your dog. Highly recommend if you are looking for someone to watch your pet.”
“We highly recommend Lily for dog boarding/dog sitting. She took wonderful care of our Golden Retriever, Luna, while we were on vacation. Lily not only cared for her basic needs (feeding, potty breaks/exercise), but also gave her lots of love and attention while we were away. Our pup loves people and other dogs, but she is very attached to her humans and can get anxious when separated from them. So, this is only the second time we’ve left her in someone else’s care. We’re so grateful to Lily for making it a success. Luna seemed happy and well cared for when we picked her up. Lily was great about communication, providing daily updates, pictures and video of Luna. In all of them, Luna looked happy and content, and very much acting like her happy self. Lily is a clear, professional, caring, pleasant, thoughtful and responsible caregiver. We are so grateful to have found a home-away-from-home for our dog! Lily will be the first person we call if we need dog boarding or sitting services. Thank you, Lily, for taking such good care of our Luna!”
“Aisha was so great with my dog Gumby! She allowed me to introduce my pup to her prior to her stay so she could warm up and sent me lots of pictures of her during her stay also! I would definitely recommend! Her dog is also super precious! :)”
“Absolutely Endorse Emily! Your dog is in the Best spot with Emily! We went to the beach for a week and our regular doggy sitter was not available. Pulled in by the reviews and messages between Emily and myself, I felt assured that my dog, Zeta, would be well taken care of while we were gone. Emily is a mature young lady with an enthusiastic personality and interacts naturally with the dogs. Emily's house is perfectly set up for dogs of all sizes-it is a large yard with lots of space to run and cool places to explore. She has doggy beds and everything to provide water and a good meal for them. In addition, Emily takes the dogs for daily runs and to a dog park right by her house. When I picked up Zeta at the end of the week she was happy to see me but I could tell that she had a great week with Emily.”
“Carmen and her family took such incredible care of Frankie—we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was going to be treated like part of the family. She got so much attention, love, and playtime, and their large backyard was an absolute dream for her. It honestly felt like Frankie was on her own little vacation weekend. We came back to a happy, relaxed dog, which says everything. Carmen was communicative, thoughtful, and clearly genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. We highly recommend Carmen and will absolutely be bringing Frankie back again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Falls Church
Our dog Jea received exceptional care. Roxanna provided clear communication, reliability, and genuine compassion. Daily pictures, timely walks, and attention to Jea’s specific needs made the entire experience stress-free. Jea returned home well-exercised, content, and clearly bonded with Roxanna. I highly recommend Roxanne to anyone seeking top-tier pet care. We’ll definitely be coming back to her. Thank you, Roxanna!
From the moment we met Ellie, I knew he would be in loving hands. She truly went above and beyond in every way. She spoiled him with plenty of playtime and home made treats (Taro's favorite- he approved 100% pawcent) and gave him so much love and attention throughout his stay. The photo updates meant so much to me. Seeing Taro so happy, relaxed, and enjoying himself made being away so much easier. When I picked Taro up, he was happy, healthy, and so well cared for. I am so incredibly grateful for the love and care she gave him and so happy to have found her on Rover. Knowing I now have someone I can trust with my pup is priceless, and I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their dog as if they were her own!
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for our sweet Merlin. She was incredibly loving from the very first day — you could just tell how much she genuinely cared for him. She went above and beyond by planning tons of fun activities, keeping him happy, active, and engaged the whole time we were away. The regular photo updates she sent were such a thoughtful touch — it was so reassuring to see him having the best time, whether he was out exploring or just relaxing. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands and never once worried about him while traveling. She’s an absolute gem and we will absolutely be booking her again for future trips. Highly, highly recommend! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Merlin!
Colleen and Sean watched Hazel for a last-minute trip to Philadelphia. They were perfect hosts and took wonderful care of her. They're a lovely family, they sent pictures and updates during her stay, and they were very flexible with drop-off and pick-up. Perfect experience all around.
Karol was a wonderful Rover dog boarder for my boxer Addie. I would rebook with Karol again in the future. She sent photos multiple times a day, plus a video of Addie running outside. Karol is a wonderful communicator and I know Addie had a fun time staying with her. She came home happy and tired.
Mee Jeong truly saved our weekend when she agreed to watch our girls! We had a meet and greet before our set drop off time, and our girls warmed up to her immediately. Her dog, Daisy, was super sweet, and accepted our girls instantly. Through the course of our weekend, Mee Jeong provided daily updates, showing pictures of the walks they were going on, and updates regarding their eating, sleeping, playfulness, and walks. The girls looked ecstatic in every picture that was sent over, and I didn’t think they would want to come home with me! They were properly stimulated, and to the point of driving them home, they napped the entire way. I would be honored to have Mee Jeong watch our girls again!
So caring and a good fit for my dog Teddy. The environment was perfect for my senior little dog. The day before boarding, my little guy broke a toe and was put in a soft cast. Inwas prepared to cancel my trip, but Jennifer stepped up and took the injured guy and I knew and was right he was in good hands. Shared photos daily and comments to keep me at ease while I was out of town. Recommend highly!
As rookie dog owners with a newly adopted pup, Nyla and Corey put us at ease during our week+ trip knowing our pup was going to be in good, experienced hands. We received daily updates of our pup who seemed to have a blast playing with new pup-mates. Next time we need support with our dog, we'll be calling Nyla and Corey. They were also quick to respond before and during our booking.
Yiting was absolutely amazing. She sent us tons of updates through out Stogie’s stay. She is very knowledgeable about dogs. Our pup is very high energy and is very attached to us, but he had such a great time. He came home tired and well exercised, which is so appreciated after a trip. He had a blast!

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in VA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
