“Amanda and her wife are absolutely amazing. I’m a nervous pet parent and have a lot of anxiety leaving my babies but she made me feel extremely comfortable that they were in good hands. Extremely happy to have found a great sitter so quickly after moving to the area. Highly recommend!”
“Steven did an incredible job taking care of our Siamese cat, Monroe. He was patient with her the first few days as she warmed up to him and then loved on her once she came around. The daily pictures and updates were appreciated and helped ease our mind during our two week trip. We will definitely book with him next time and will include our deaf and blind Great Dane. His love and care for animals is obvious. Thank you Steven!”
“Katelyn was so good with our almost 19-year old cat. She was responsive from the beginning and sent many texts and pictures while we were gone. It's obvious she loves animals and I really appreciate her caring attitude. I'm hoping she'll be available for future pet-sitting.”
“Anna Marie frequently checked in with me on my vacation to update me on Mochi, and sent tons of pictures!! She showed up on time every day and took amazing care of her, I’m incredibly thankful for all of Anna Marie’s help. Definitely would recommend if you’re looking for someone caring, attentive, and professional to take care of your pets!”
“Beca is AWESOME! Not only did she take great care of my furbaby but her communications with me were fantastic! She went above and beyond during her visits to ensure my girl was at ease, well cared for, and happy. I could not have asked for a better sitter!!!”
“Andrea has been amazing! The dogs love her. She is very responsive and gives great updates in her visit details. She was willing to stop by ahead of our first scheduled drop-in to meet the pups. I’ve rebooked with her and plan to continue!”
“This is the 2 time I’ve had Krystin watch my cat and I’m extremely grateful for her! Super attentive to his needs, very communicative, and adaptable. I highly recommend!”
“My dogs took to Brooke immediately and they were so happy when I got home. She is very professional, responds almost immediately, took great pics of the pups, is great about explaining the app to newbies :), and I am definitely hiring her again.”
“Once again, Autumn provided us with a wonderful and exceptional service! She was very loving and caring with our babies. She informed us after every visit and sent us adorable pictures. She even brought inside one of our delayed packages. As always, she was very accommodating and understanding as we unexpectedly had to cut short our Christmas vacations for a day. Our babies love Autumn and she loves them! Until the next time!”
“Eve was a wonderful sitter for our two (often particular) cats! By her third day she had turned Nicholas into a best friend, more than my family can say! She was thoughtful and reliable while we were traveling. Thank you Eve!”
“Hannah was exceptional. She took wonderful care of our cat while we were gone. She was easy to work with, communicated promptly and was super friendly. She also went WAY above and beyond. I left a critical item at home. She located it and overnighted it to me. I don’t know what I would have done without her.”
About: I have watched dogs and cats for the last 20+ years for family members and friends. Recently I have been watching senior doggos that require a bit more attention. Whether that be providing medicines or being patient with their routine. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable and stress free as possible. My wife helps out from time to time. She will occasionally accompany me for meet and greets, but she mostly acts as a backup. We will let you know when booking if she will be helping out or not. She also has 20+ years of experience with pets. Working from home with a very flexible schedule. If your house as good wifi, I can hang around nearly all day. Can also spend nights if needed. Available most weeks, but do travel from time to time. Prefer to watch pets in their own environment to limit their stress levels. For cats, I typically will spend nearly all day with them, or at the very least, visit twice per day for a an hour or two depending on how social the cat is. The more social, the more time I will hang around and provide the cat company. If a cat is not very social or doesn't like company, I'll cover the basics of feeding, watering, changing litter, ensuring the cat is alive and well, but will provide the cat their space.
“We were so fortunate to find Dana. Our cat is our “only child” and because I work from home, our cat can be very apprehensive and even times rude to unfamiliar guests. Dana was very patient with Kobe. She stayed at our house and everything was maintained perfectly. Dana kept us informed on Kobe’s behavior and helped on some tasks outside of her scope like taking out my trash cans and bringing in packages. Leaving your house and your pets to a stranger is stressful but I can’t recommend Dana enough!”
“Miranda was a dream! She took the time to meet our cat Tux ahead of time. Tux is a mostly outdoor cat, and not used to interacting with people. But Miranda was so sweet and patient in making him feel cared for and comfortable. She was incredibly communicative while we were away and sent us photos, videos and notes about each visit to give us peace of mind. I would highly recommend Miranda for any pet parent in the DMV!”
“Carly has been so wonderful and reliable for our dog, Phoebe! She has provided weekly drop ins for a couple of months and one long overnight stay so far, which she extended a night on short notice for us. She provides us with consistent updates and communication and Phoebe is always a happy girl after each of her visits. We highly recommend Carly, she’s been one of our best Petsitters to date.”
About: Mom of dogs, cats, birds, lizards and other animals looking to spoil more in my spare time. Can promise treats and lots of hugs if needed. Week dependant, Sundays open. Working as a law researcher so the schedule varies a bit but can be worked out for a new client :) I have a fenced yard, but would prefer to see animal at clients house since my dog and cat get stressed at having their space invaded, unless it's by a well known friend
About: I’ve taken care of any kind of pet, my close relatives trust that I walk, feed at the right amount that suit their healthy life. I’m part-timer so I have a flexible schedule, my calendar may change, but I always let you know in advance with any concerns with booking. I’m always aware with my surroundings and maintain a secure, neat environment for your pets safety that can potentially risk your pets at any moment.
About: Energetic walks, loving care, and happy paws 🐾. I treat your dog like my owns puppies—with love, responsibility, and plenty of adventures every single day. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. I’m very organized, and I enjoy spending time outdoors. I schedule walks around my other responsibilities with flexibility. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and happy. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, keep spaces clean, and create a calm, trusting environment.

George D.
“George took care of our elder dog Jackson and he did a great job. Jackson required a lot of care and attention given he wasn't physically and mentally all there. George did a great job of ensuring he had fun letting him explore his yard safely and allowing him to interact with his cat. George has also taken care of a few of our friends pets and haven't heard anything bad about his care. Would def recommend him for other pets.”

Elyse H.
“Elyse has cared for many animals in the past and done an incredible job tending to all of them. This is speaking from what I know seeing all the types of pets that she’s had in her own life, from dogs, to cats, to birds, lizards and turtles. She doesn’t do anything in half measures when it comes to them either. I think that with every animal she’s been responsible for, she completed a rigorous amount of research into them to ensure they were the happiest and healthiest that they could possibly be. With that, I’d trust my own puppies with her anytime. And highly recommend her to anyone else who wants to trust their pets to someone thorough, kind, and trustworthy.”
Johanna D.
“I have had the pleasure of knowing Johanna for 18 years and during that time, I’ve seen firsthand how dedicated and responsible she is in every aspect of her life. As a high-achieving student with a strong academic record, Johanna consistently demonstrates her commitment to excellence. She is also a member of the ROTC program, which has further instilled in her the values of discipline and leadership. Johanna’s love for animals is one of her defining qualities. Whether it’s caring for dogs, cats, or even birds, she has a natural ability to connect with animals and provide them with the attention and care they need. Her enthusiasm for animal care, combined with her responsible nature, makes her an ideal candidate to be a Rover sitter. I have full confidence that Johanna will provide safe, loving care to any pets entrusted to her.”
kamila p.
“I feel very calm and secure when Kamila takes care of my pet because I know she's in good hands. She gives her excellent attention and care, and she likes to take her to quiet places and clean herself. Kamila is always reporting on my pet's condition and listens to my recommendations for a better condition of my pet.”
