Dog Sitting Forestville

About: I have hands-on experience caring for my English Bulldog, who I’ve helped raise since 2020, so I understand the daily care and attention dogs need. I’m also very familiar with cats, thanks to helping with my cousin’s cat, so I feel confident caring for both cats and dogs. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m available after 1 p.m. on Monday - Friday. I’m usually free on Sundays as well. I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I give my own. You can trust me to be responsible, reliable, and to keep your pets safe and happy while you’re away.

About: I'm patient, dependable, and attentive to each dog's individual needs, whether they enjoy long walks, lots of playtime, or simply relaxing with companionship. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, including energetic puppies who need consistency and positive reinforcement, as well as senior dogs who require a slower pace, extra patience, and gentle care. I enjoy being active, so regular walks and outdoor time are something I genuinely look forward to. Whether it's a quick drop-in visit, a daily walk, or overnight care, I make it a priority to provide dependable, loving care while keeping your pet's routine as consistent as possible. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions so they can stay happy and comfortable. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, fresh water, and affection while ensuring they're always supervised and secure.

“Vivi helped me on short notice! She exhibited genuine concern for my animals and was quick to communicate. I truly appreciate her caring and confidence. I have no doubts that I will use her in the future.”

About: I volunteered with animal defense league for over 5 years as well as fostered several litters of both puppies and kittens. I also have two cats of my own and grew up with farm dogs I work early in the mornings part time, so i will have lots of free time in the afternoon and all the time on the weekends to take care of your friend I have three friendly cats at my home and I am very respectful of any rules that animals or I may have to abide by.

“Ehuniz is the first pet sitter we had through Rover and she did an awesome job. She immediately acted with professionalism at our first meeting. She took care of our 2 cats for 1 week during the Christmas Season. She came to our house twice a day and was amazingly on time every time. She spent 30 full minutes each time to feed/play with the cats and clean the litter box. She even spent time to send us several pictures which was not expected but much appreciated! Not to mention that she is very easily reachable and ultra responsive. We are already in touch with her to not miss the chance to have her taking of the cats again and also of our dog for January!!!”

About: I provide attentive, personalized care shaped by eight years as a dog owner. I’m experienced with oral medications and IVs, and comfortable caring for puppies, seniors, and pets needing extra love, care and support. I typically work from home, so I’m available to give your baby plenty attention, love and walks throughout the day and night. I’m available for boarding mostly on the weekends and some week days. Please reach out to coordinate! Your pet will be the only animal in my home at a time, ensuring they get my full attention. To keep them happy, stimulated, and safe, we’ll go on leashed neighborhood walks and visit fenced dog parks where they can socialize and run freely.

“Travan was very communicative and kind. Will definitely utilize his services again in the future.”

“Taivon was a great caretaker who accepted my booking last minute before NYE. He navigated entry into my home with no issues, fed and walked my senior pit with documentation and no incidents. I would book again, he’s very responsive which I love as a traveling pet parent. Thanks, Taivon!”

About: Hi! We are Lauren and Tinoi, two passionate and dependable pet lovers who believes every pet deserves to feel safe, happy, and loved even when you’re away. We’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years, and at one point were the fur parents of a total of 9 dogs at once, so we're very comfortable managing multiple pets, different personalities, and varying energy levels. Our love for animals runs deep, and our (well Lauren's lol) long term dream is to retire on a few acres of land where we can rescue and care for as many dogs as possible. With us, your pet will get more than just the basics. We provide attentive care, fun walks, and plenty of affection to make sure their routine stays consistent and stress free. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship, we tailor our care to your pet’s unique needs and personality. We understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, so we prioritize clear communication and regular updates, including photos, to give you peace of mind. You can count on us to treat your pet like my own, with patience, kindness, and lots of love 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine! Lauren works remotely from home and has a very flexible schedule, which allows her to give pets consistent attention throughout the day, not just during quick check-ins. Tinoi works a 9–5 schedule, and together we plan to share the care to ensure pets always have companionship, supervision, and support throughout the day. We are available for walks, playtime, feeding, and check ins, and can adjust our routine to meet each pet’s specific needs. Whether your pet needs frequent potty breaks, extra companionship, or a steady schedule, we’re able to provide that. We’re also flexible for boarding and pet sitting during both the week and weekends, making it easy to accommodate your schedule. Caring for pets isn’t something we fit in, it’s something we prioritize, so your pet will always receive reliable, attentive care 🐾 We provide care exclusively in our home, where pets enjoy a safe and comfortable environment with a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. We also have two friendly dogs who can offer companionship, and we always take time to ensure proper, gradual introductions so all pets feel comfortable and relaxed. Lauren works from home, which allows her to provide consistent attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. Tinoi helps share in the care as well, and together we make sure each dog receives regular supervision, exercise, and affection. We do our best to maintain each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. For safety and structure, we require that dogs are crate trained and comfortable being crated when we are away from home and overnight. This helps ensure they stay safe, secure, and well rested in a familiar routine. Our goal is always to create a calm, loving environment where every pet feels at home 🐾

“Imani was very professional. She asked me detailed questions to assure that she knew how to relate to my dog who is an old lady. She was quick to respond and carried her duties just as she said she would. I was hesitant to let someone in my home but after working with her, I will definitely use Rover again.”

“Very attentive with the cats and my dog and stayed to hangout with them extra! Would absolutely book again :)”

About: I’ve taken care of pets personally since 2014 when I had my blue nose pitt! I love all animals and am excited to see what furry friends I make! I’m currently a junior in college, so I’m mostly available for breaks, holidays, and the summer! My availability is more flexible on weekends than weekdays and willing to watch and tend to your paw-some pet overnight in the home! I love having fun and making every furry friend feel comfortable and loved, from baths to letting out the zoomies! My favorite things to do are going on long walks, cuddles, and running around outside together!

About: As a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience raising and training a Cocker Spaniel, a Pitbull Terrier, and a Rottweiler from puppyhood into their senior years, my goal is to provide patient and dependable care tailored to your pet's unique personality. Whether they need playtime, walks, cuddles, or just a calm place to stay, they will always feel safe, loved, and cozy while in my care. I currently work full-time in Alexandria, VA, but I work remotely on Mondays and Wednesdays. I do have open availability on weekends, and I am available to board throughout the weekend into Monday. My care is tailored to the individual needs of every animal. My apartment complex is incredibly pet-friendly with a large area right outside my unit for long walks and playtime. We also have a grooming station in case your fur baby needs a little TLC before going home. As an active young adult and someone familiar with the challenges of the puppy years - I am also available to walk dogs as frequently as needed. I also have no problem administering medication or patiently supporting elderly or special needs animals.

About: I grew up in a small village which gave me the opportunity to take care of all types of animals including horses, birds, dogs, and cats. I have had my dog Gucci for 11 years now ( he lives with my family overseas) and was taking care of 2 very adorable stray dogs Rex ,Angel ,and a cat named olive. Angel can’t see in one eye so he needed all the help he could get. After taking care of them for about a year I decided to find them their forever homes. Rex, olive ,and angel were adopted by two warm and loving homes. Before leaving them I made sure that they were given proper care and the attention they need. I have a flexible hybrid working schedule which allows me to spend most of my time at home, giving me plenty of time to spend with my fur buddies. I have a big backyard that is fenced with space for dogs to run around. I don’t leave pets outside unattended. Inside the house I like dogs to be as comfortable as possible and to roam around freely.

About: Since growing up at a young age, I’ve always had a pet by my side and now that I love daily unconditionally. If there is one thing I can teach them is to get along with others animals as well as people. My patience and understanding will keep them thriving and healthy. I only want to give them more than they need. I am available 5 days of the week to care for your pet, including the weekend if needed! After all, someone has to be there for them. No pet under my supervision has ever been in harms way. I have a big cage with food and water. Pet toys, cleaning supplies, and pet proof items to keep them safe.

About: Haven't had a pet in almost 10 years so I might be a little rusty but I have over 15 years experience with a medium/big dog (chow chow) and as well as a little dog (pekingese), Feral cat (bombay) trained to love and be loved and to be happy & friendly. As an trustworthy and friendly sitter and animal lover especially dogs, cats next. I have plenty room to still learn more and experience more, the patience I have with fur babies is because they're pretty much like our children. Smoke free, cage free unless trained and requires to be in a crate, walks every 4 -6 hours during the day until the early night and sometimes late night, unless pet has special requirements to take more walks it can be provided. And plenty of space and play time. Backyard is unfenced plenty of run around in the back area of the location area, plenty of nearby parks, basement is currently semi unfinished with no furniture with plenty of roam around room, with potential for setup area to cool off, eat, lay and relax, as well as play with access to the back area. If fur baby has separation, anxiety issue will try to help dog with that please notify if dog needs extra attention. ALSO KNOW AN EXCELLENT DOG TRAINER WHICH IS SEPARATE FROM THIS CAN SEND YOU THE INFORMATION TO MAKE YOUR FUR BABY THE PERFECT GUEST IN SOMEONE'S HOME AND YOURS! (ISPEAKDOG) I'm currently working full/ part time with a flexible schedule on the road, and kina awkward sleep schedule where im up most of the time and random times but i able to keep up with a set schedule. so I do have flexibility with dog walks, play time, feed time, and down time will preferable be of course at night where I maybe either sleep or out working for a few hours but not interrupting fur baby resting hours unless special attention is needed also do have a back up person on site incase of emergencies. I currently have no pets again as of yet other than fish ... but provide a clean, spacious unfinished basement with windows is where animal will typically lounge at, unless it's one or two small little dogs that have anxiety mishaps. dogs may have the option to roam the house, but not beds they will have their own blanket or doggy bed to relax on. also available is a backyard entrance to let dogs out to use the rest room unfenced backyard so if you have a dog that is a runner or a trackstar a proper leash or harness with extensions is needed to let the fur baby roam and run without getting lost so fur babies will be able to play in the large back field area. PLEASE NOTE If you know your fur babies do not get along with others please let me know so i can try to keep them separate or get them use to the pack even with a watchful eye they are like kids they are likely to get in a fight and im not responsible for them incidents I promote safety, peace, playfulness and award good behavior, A space for eat, lay,and play, and time and energy for walks, and exercise and care!

About: I have been a professional Dog handler and sitter for 6 years and have trained many house dogs as well as service dogs. I love all kinds of dogs and always strive to give them the love they all deserve! I am a full time dog handler and have worked along side other dog trainers/boarders throughout the years in both the U.S. and the United Kingdom A home with a small front and back yard for the dogs to exercise/play in as well as a long forest walk area directly infront of the house to walk in. I usually crate train the dogs pretty easily to get them used to being inside one incase I step out or to have them sleep at night.

About: Hello! My name is Kayla I’ve been taking care of animals for over 6 years! I started pet sitting with my grandma at age 12 and started doing it on my own shortly after. I’ve worked at a shelter for over a year and now currently work as a vet assistant. I’m comfortable with all animals of any age or size! My number one priority is for you to feel at peace knowing your fur baby is in good hands:) At the moment my schedule is completely open. I can come anytime needed or do overnights. I will always make sure my calendar stays up to date! My main goal is to always prioritize the safety of the animal! I will usually ask for a time schedule/ and how you wish your dog to be cared for, whether it be walks only, only in the fence, etc.

About: I have plenty of pet experience! I say pet because I have had cats, dogs, birds, hamsters, and even turtles! I wish I could watch them all but I can only watch a cat or dog :) I will care for them as my own & can fully trust me to take care of your love bug! I work from home so I have plenty of time on my hands! I can even work from my phone if I need to take them out on a walk around the neighborhood. I live in a safe neighborhood with a lot of animals around! I live in a full apartment with a lot of space and lighting for your love bug to be comfortable as they want to be!
