“Our dogs love Helena! She is very kind, caring, and punctual. Our dogs loves Helena’s warm personality and they greet her with lots of love. Our little cavapoo Whitney is typically fearful and a little anxious at times. Whitney has quickly warmed up to Helena and not as anxious doing the transfer of leash at the door. Thank you so much Helena for your love, care and patience you give our fur babies.”
“Malek is a dog whisperer! He was wonderful with our Australian shepherd puppy - who has a lot of energy and love to give! Malek took her on some great walks, and she was actually tired after! Thank you so much, Malek!”
About: I’ve helped walk and play with dogs at a local dog shelter and also watch my friend’s dogs, including walking and sitting two dogs at a time. I work remote, Tuesday to Friday, and my job isn’t very busy so I have plenty of time on my hands to walk dogs anytime time during the weekdays. Weekends are also flexible too. When I care for dogs in my friend’s homes, they have fenced in backyards for them to run around in but I also walk them in the neighborhood and on trails.
“Shreejaya is incredibly kind and helpful with walking our dog and checking in on our cat. She is just the best and we really appreciate her! Highly recommend if you’re looking for pet sitting, dog walking, etc.”
“Teffni was great! She was always on time, friendly, and my dog Chai was so comfortable with her. Chai was always excited to go with Teffni and always came back good and tired out.”
About: Dogs are just wonderful. I just don’t have the right words to explain how special they are and how much I love them. I and my family have owned several dogs in the past and I have taken care of others’s dogs. Due to the immense joy dogs have always brought me I still want them in my life. I have a very open, flexible, schedule, as I am a substitute teacher. I would not be working a full day when and/or if I do work, and I am a five minute drive from work. It can fit very easily into routine. I live in a condo building with much open space to walk my dog. There are many dogs in my bldg. I live in a big two bedroom apartment.
“Marissa was super attentive and responsive to Valerie's needs (springer spaniel puppy). My husband commented that she was confident and in charge, but super nice and connected with our pup right away. Marissa was very responsive -- I had to book sort of last minute, and she responded right away and took on three walks. She was easy to converse with/contact through the Rover platform.”
“Whitney is the best and I’m so thankful I came across her on Rover - She is attentive and demonstrates the utmost care and respect for your fur baby. I only have positive things to say. Highly recommend if you’re looking for someone responsible, responsive, and a great communicator!”
“Jonathan was wonderful with Teddy! You could tell he genuinely cared about making sure Teddy had a great walk and was comfortable along the way. He even brought a water cup for him, which was such a thoughtful touch. Jonathan was on time, dependable, and his communication was excellent. Teddy was in great hands, and I’d absolutely recommend Jonathan to anyone looking for someone caring and reliable!”
About: -A Lifetime of Love, Rescue & Thoughtful Pet Care 🐾- For me, caring for animals has always been more than a responsibility. It’s about understanding their personalities, respecting their routines, and making them feel loved and at home. With 20 years of hands-on experience, my journey began in Germany, where I volunteered walking and fostering dogs. Later, in Bahrain, I became involved in animal rescue. Today, my family includes four wonderful rescue cats from the Middle East, each with their own unique story. I’ve cared for everything from tiny 5-week-old kittens and energetic puppies to senior companions requiring specialized attention. -Experienced, Attentive & Individualized Care- My beloved dog was with me from 2008 to 2024. During his senior years, I gained valuable experience administering medication, assisting with physical therapy, and adapting routines to his changing needs. -A Little Home Away From Home 🌿- My home offers a spacious backyard for playtime and a cozy sunroom for safely enjoying the sunshine. With Rock Creek Park and Woodside Forest nearby, I can offer anything from gentle strolls to longer woodland adventures, always tailored to your dog’s needs and energy levels. I believe exceptional pet care lies in the little details. I’m happy to provide regular photos and updates throughout your pet’s stay, so you can enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind. Above all, I love working with pet parents who value thoughtful, attentive care as much as I do. Every animal deserves to feel safe, understood, and cherished. I currently work remotely for a consulting and advisory firm, which gives me the flexibility to incorporate pet care naturally into my daily routine. Working from home means I’m around throughout much of the day to provide companionship, attention, and regular breaks. My weekends are generally very flexible, allowing plenty of time for longer walks, outdoor adventures, playtime, or simply enjoying a relaxed day together. I believe pets thrive on consistency, so I’m happy to accommodate their usual feeding schedules, walks, medication, and daily routines to make their stay as comfortable and familiar as possible. A Safe, Peaceful & Welcoming Home 🏡 I live in a spacious single-family home in a quiet residential neighborhood, offering a calm and comfortable environment for your companion. The house features a generous backyard with plenty of room for supervised outdoor play, exploration, and fresh air, as well as a lovely sunroom where pets can safely relax and enjoy the sunshine. For additional peace of mind, my home is equipped with security cameras in the main living areas, providing an extra layer of household security. I take a thoughtful, individualized approach to pet care, always respecting each animal’s personality, comfort level, and established routines. Whether your pet enjoys an active day outdoors or prefers a peaceful afternoon indoors, their safety and well-being are always my priorities. I’m also happy to share regular photos and updates, so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. 🐾
“Oluwaseun is such a wonderful dog walker! I will definitely use her again! She went far and above the walking responsibilities. She communicated before arrival and completion, sending cool photos of what my dog Ralph experienced on his walk.💗💗 She was attentive to all the details of what my dog needed. I felt so at ease having her walk my senior dog.”
About: I was raised within a big family of dog lovers and have since expanded my love to cats (so much so that I now have my own cat). I was taught from an early age that pets aren’t just animals – they are family, a lifetime commitment, honor and privilege. Whether it’s caring for my family’s senior, blind and diabetic pug, my neighbor’s rambunctious puppy or my best friend’s anxious cat, I treat all fur babies like my own family. Additionally, I also work in the arts. I find that my deep love for the arts also influences my style of pet and home care. With me, it’s a guarantee your precious cargo will be treated like family and like the unique piece of art that they are. I’m a freelancer in the arts and work from contract to contract. The summer months are significantly slower than the rest of the year, so I have lots of extra time between May and August to dedicate to the care of your dog, cat or home! Whatever parameters you set for the care of your pet and home, I will always follow to the letter. Give me as much or as little instruction as you see fit and I will make your best case scenario a reality. I am also always willing to send you as many pictures, videos or texts as you wish while you are away. I know and greatly value how much these tidbits can help with peace of mind.
“Melika is very communicative and does a fantastic job. I’m very pleased with the work she does and the loving way she cares for Loki. I hope I get to use her services frequently.”
About: 15 years of own pet care experience. I have cared for pets and volunteered on animal shelters before. I own a frenchie boy who is very calm , never barks and loves to eat. If needed on a case by case basis I can arrange to have your baby in my care alone :) Loved animals since little. I will love your pet like its my own. I’m a civil engineer with a frenchie pup working from home! Dog-walking or pet sitting will be a smooth addition to my daily routine that your pup and I will enjoy! Meet and greets needed for dog sitting. Will send you photos or text to let you know how your pet is doing! Please let me know of any fears your pup has. I typically let my dog sleep my couch or bed but will ask for permission first.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Garrett Park
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I’m very pleased with the dog-walking services! Jonathan was very helpful with making sure my dog got the care, attention, and exercise she needed. It was good to see my pup come back tired and ready to lay down. I appreciate the time and effort put into making sure she was well cared for. Very friendly and easy to talk to and did more than I expected. As my first time using any dog walking service, I am well pleased. I would definitely recommend his service to other pet owners looking for help with their dogs!
Lindsay is absolutely great! This was my first time using Rover, and she had been incredibly patient and helpful throughout everything. She took the time to explain everything clearly and kept me updated with great communication. You can genuinely tell that she loves dogs. I would definitely recommend Lindsay and would happily book with her again!
Maya! Thank you so much! Envy was incredibly happy upon meeting Maya and easily welcomed her warm personality. I received qualitative updates in each Rover card with adorable photos to pair! Maya was receptive to all procedures necessary to provide care to my pup and will absolutely use again!
I couldn’t be happier with my experience! They were reliable, caring, and clearly treated my dog like their own. I felt completely comfortable knowing my dog was in such good hands, and I loved getting updates along the way. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable dog walker!
Whitney was an absolute lifesaver walking my two little pups. They warmed up to her instantly. She went above and beyond making sure they were safe and got good exercise and sniffs. Communication was perfect. I would absolutely reach out to Whitney as a top choice for future walks. Highest recommendation. Thank you Whitney!
Mary Beth does an amazing job with our quirky one-eyed chihuahua Polly! She also was able to help us out with our foster dog Lizzie, who was very shy at first. We rest easy knowing our pups have had a good exercise break in their day while we are at the office!
Christopher was excellent and was able to help with our last minute request. He was punctual, communicative and made sure to walk for agreed upon times. Otis loved his visits and he was careful to watch and ensure a good pace for an older dog. He also made sure to provide plenty of water and good reports of any potty breaks or other notes.

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.
