About: I grew up with a dog and cat and pet sat for people since 2013. I took a pre-vet class throughout high school where I learned about feeding, cutting nails, grooming, restraint, etc. I also worked as a vet assistant for a few years where I expanded on those skills and learned what to look out for and how to care for any type of pet. I work from home a decent bit and/or work half days so I am pretty flexible during the week days. My work is also flexible so I can prioritize the times you need me to be there. Since I have 2 cats in a one bedroom apartment, I won't be bringing pets to my place. When I go to your home, I will try to make the pets feel comfortable and be a happy smiling face to them. Of course, I will give them some love, pets, food, water, or whatever you and the pet need from me!
“Omar is always punctual, responsible, and very attentive to my dog’s needs. He makes sure my dog gets plenty of exercise and is well cared for during their walks. I truly appreciate his dedication and the peace of mind knowing my dog is in good hands. I highly recommend him!”
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.
“Laci is so sweet and caring! Our dog Kona took to her right away and really loved her. We really appreciated her dog walking services and will definitely be requesting Laci again in the future!”
“Celeste is dependable and a good communicator. She kept our dog happy and walked, cleaned her before leaving each day so muddy walks were not an issue after leaving our dog until we were home from work. Thank you Celeste!”
“Amanda is incredibly responsible, thoughtful, and such a dog person. Rosie was in love with her at first sight. Lucky to have her as part of my "dog team."”
About: I know how difficult it can be to find affordable dog sitting in Washington DC, especially on short notice and city that has a lot of young professionals, but as a former Chihuahua and dachshund owner who successfully fostered two dogs in Washington DC it can be done! I have a 1,500 square foot apartment, perfect for pets of all sizes! I work from home and my office is two blocks away from my apartment. Many breaks are taken during the work day for mental health clarity, body stretching and overall wellbeing. Taking pets on potty breaks playing or feeding them fits into my day very well. I care for my own pets and clients pets by not only listening to the owners needs of what the pet is comfortable with, but also adding my own touch and providing the dog with positive affirmations a comfortable environment, and sometimes homemade treats.
About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs my entire life, caring for pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. From playful puppies and kittens to senior, shy, and anxious pets, I tailor my care to what makes each pet happiest and most comfortable. I’m comfortable with long walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of love and attention, while always following your instructions and your pet’s usual routine. Whether they want an adventure or a cozy day at home, they’ll have my full attention and care! 🐾💫 My schedule is pretty flexible right now, so I have plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and keeping your pets company. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine. I’ll always treat your pet and your home like they’re my own. I’m big on following the routine they’re already comfortable with, whether that means walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company. I’m also happy to send plenty of pictures and updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.
“Thomas is awesome! I have used his services multiple times and he is great. He is flexible when needed and very communicative throughout the service. My dog adores him!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Myer
Felipe was very helpful, patient, and kind with my energetic dog! I really appreciated how understanding and attentive he was. It gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!
Vivian is great. I have 3 large dogs (2 of them are over 100 pounds) and she didn’t flinch about walking them. She came exactly when she said she would, sent me updates and took great care of them. I can highly recommend Vivian and look forward to using her again.
Alexandra and Eve did a great job with my pups! I had to work a few very long days and didn't want to leave the boys alone for 14+ hours! They came and walked them in the morning and walked and fed them in the evening! They sent a lot of pictures which brought some joy to my day at work and let me know they were taken care of! It was also nice that they were freshly walked when I got home so I could relax with them on the couch instead of rush off to make sure they were walked. It definitely relieved a lot of stress for me and them! 100% worth it, 100% would recommend and 100% hope to work with them in the future!
Leila was great! I booked her last minute and unfortunately the app had the wrong address for me. Leila was understanding and still showed up to the correct address and did the full walk (which I did not expect her to as the address situation was not her fault). Naya seemed to have a great time and I will definitely be booking her again when the need arises. Thank you Leila!
Emma did a fantastic job with our dog. Our pup was not feeing well the morning before the scheduled walk and Emma was willing to do an extra check in before to make sure he was ok. She also gave really good updates and plenty of photos. Overall really impressed, and will be requesting for walks again
Zoe and Alec are great!! They were able to work around our tight schedule with ease! Zoe took Fig on a nice long walk and hung out with him inside and made sure he was comfy with sw treats and his favorite show before heading out! Will definitely be asking for their help in the future!

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Fort Myer. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
