“Ruowei was great! We needed to book last minute and she was quick to respond. She was great at communicating! We will definitely be reaching out again next time!”

“From our initial conversation through the entire visit, Tammy was excellent! She took such good care of my cat (and home!), and I feel confident in recommending her to anyone in need of care. Thank you, so much, for being so kind to our nervous kitty!”

Joia C.

“Skylar was amazing with our 2 cats! She was very patient and let them warm up at their own pace. Both cats were very relaxed and comfortable our entire time away thanks to Skylar. We couldn't recommend Skylar highly enough.”

“Working with Danielle was fantastic! We are so grateful that she accepted our request to care for our young kitty while we were out of town. Regarding pet care, Danielle is certainly the perfect blend of experience and kindness, giving us confidence that she knows well both how to care for our pet and how to make his visit terrific. Danielle certainly exceeded our expectations on both fronts, and for that we are appreciative. We look forward to working with her again!”

“Kathryn was absolutely amazing for our little grumbly girl, Kora. We were going to book with Kathryn back when our cat Dannica was still with us. I was always so anxious to leave her especially when she started having her health problems. Kathryn is the only new person that was not only able to see Dannica, but she was able to pet her. There was no other choice once I saw that. Kathryn is communicative, friendly, and thorough when it comes to caring for animals. Kora loved her, and I absolutely recommend booking with her.”

“Maryann was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond while caring for our 3 dogs and cat while we were out of town. She spent extra time at our house, made sure everyone was fed, loved on, and played with, and even cleaned up accidents in the house without hesitation. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our pets were in such caring and capable hands. We would highly recommend Maryann and will definitely be booking with her again! ❤️🐾”

“Sughra always takes great care our cats. This is the second time she’s taken care of our 2 cats, and we are happy to have her petsit. She is reliable and is great about communicating how they are doing. I would highly recommend Sughra as a Petsitter!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and ages since I was young. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. I’m available for pet care on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. During these days, I have dedicated time to focus fully on each pet’s needs, including feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I prioritize safety and follow all care instructions closely. I keep a clean, calm environment and always supervise pets. I’m comfortable with crates, routines, medications if needed, and I provide regular updates to pet parents for peace of mind.

“Gabrielle was wonderful to work with. She was communicative, kind, and reliable, and I felt comfortable having her stay at my place and care for my cat. I appreciated her update once a day and would definitely recommend her to others.”

About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. I currently have cats, a dog, and a lizard! I have experience pet sitting for family and neighbors. I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I am flexible and can hang out with your pets as much as you would like. I am open to late nights or early mornings as well. I believe that pets are the most comfortable in their own homes. It’s better to come to them so they can stay where they know, rather than having to get comfortable in a new place.

“Great service to take care of my baby. I will use it again. Thank you so much.”

About: Throughout my experience caring for animals, I’ve been responsible for a variety of daily pet-care needs, including feeding and providing fresh water, cleaning food and water bowls, maintaining clean living areas, giving pets attention and companionship, and making sure they are safe and comfortable. For cats and dogs, I’m comfortable with playtime, walks, bathroom breaks, litter box cleaning, and keeping them on their normal routines. For smaller pets like hamsters, I can provide food, fresh water, and habitat cleaning. I also have experience caring for fish, including feeding and maintaining a clean environment. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and routine so I can recognize when something seems unusual. I’m also happy to follow specific instructions from owners to make sure their pets receive consistent care while they’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m comfortable working around a pets established routine and making sure they receive consistent meals, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, and attention. In a clients home, I’ll treat their space with the same respect I would want for my own. I’ll make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure, follow feeding and medication instructions carefully, and keep their environment clean and safe. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is doing well while you’re away.

About: Hello Rover Community! Wonderful to meet you all virtually! My Name is Hana, I’m 27 years old living in the Northern VA area. I provide daily dog walks, in home visits, overnight care in your home as well as cat services ! I’ve had experience with pet care for over 12 years and do have many reviews from past clients if needed. I do have a 14 year old pet and have experience with senior pet care as well. Fluent in both English and Spanish, currently working from home so communication and flexibility will not be an issue. Looking forward to caring for your pets! I’ve been working remotely for over 5 years and am very flexible when it comes to pet care. I’m off on the weekends and will prioritize time for your pets when needed. I have an older dog that keeps to herself and will probably do her own thing when caring for your dog. If there are special requests needs for your dog, I will do my best to follow.

About: We’ve both grown up around dogs and have always loved being around animals. Robin has dogs of his own, and Macy has both dogs and cats and has cared for pets for most of her life. Macy also has professional experience working as a kennel attendant, where she cared for dogs of all different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. We’re comfortable with different routines and needs, and we always make sure every pet gets plenty of love, attention, and care while they’re with us. 🐾 Hi! We’re Macy & Robin, a couple who both love animals! Macy is the primary sitter, and Robin joins her for some bookings to provide an extra set of hands and even more love and attention for your pets. We love spending time with animals and getting to know all their different personalities. Macy is currently in school working toward her Master Esthetician license, so she has a pretty flexible schedule throughout the week. We’re both reliable, respectful, and will make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in our care. We’re also happy to send plenty of pictures and updates! 🐾 I have a fenced in backyard along with a crate, although I would prefer not housing at my house because of other pets living there.

About: Please take a moment to read my full description 🐾💛. It’s very important to me that you do, as everything I include here is designed for the benefit of everyone involved —your pet, myself as their caregiver, and you as their loving parents, because I know your furry friend is truly part of your family and deserves the best care. You may find that what I’ve written here answers several of your questions, especially if this is your first time leaving your pet in someone else’s care. Here you’ll find all the details about boarding and daycare, including my routine, flexibility, safety measures, and how I care for each pet’s needs. If you have any questions or additional concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact me. I’ll be happy to answer everything you need so you can feel completely comfortable and at ease before booking. 🐾✨ ⸻ Hi! I’m Romely, a lifelong animal lover currently living in Virginia. I’m bilingual (English & Spanish), so I can communicate comfortably in both languages —making it easier for you to feel understood and confident when we talk about your furry family member. 💬🐾 I began my journey as a rescuer and volunteer in animal shelters in Puerto Rico, caring for dogs and cats in delicate conditions and staying by their side until they found their forever homes. That experience taught me empathy, patience, and what it truly means to care from the heart. After moving to Virginia, I continued volunteering at local shelters, gaining even more experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and special needs. Caring for animals remains the heart of my daily life. At home, your pet will meet Athenas, my sweet, calm, and friendly dog who loves making new friends —both dogs and cats. I like to provide a balanced routine, with fun walks around our community’s pet park, interactive play, mental stimulation, and cozy relaxation time in a safe, loving environment. During their stay or care, your pet is my priority. I make sure they receive all my attention, love, and supervision so they feel comfortable, happy, and safe at all times. 💛🐾 For me, the most important thing is your pet’s safety and your peace of mind, knowing your furry friend is in good hands. I like to maintain constant communication with pet parents and share multiple updates throughout the day, whether it’s photos, videos, or messages showing how your pet’s day is going. 📸🐾 I never call unless it’s an emergency, but I genuinely enjoy keeping you updated because I know how important it is to feel connected and reassured. If you prefer a different communication style (for example, fewer updates or only once a day), just let me know —I’ll gladly adapt to your preferences. 💕 I’m trained in Pet CPR and First Aid, and I’m comfortable administering oral medications when needed. I completely understand that leaving your pet in someone else’s care can be hard —for both you and your furry friend. That’s why I do everything possible to ensure everyone feels comfortable and at peace from the very beginning. We love treating every pet as part of our own family, giving them the same love, respect, and attention we give to our own. ✨ I only host one family at a time to guarantee fully personalized care. For day sitting, I can care for up to two pets per day, always ensuring each one receives the attention, love, and space they deserve. We also love celebrating pets! 🥳 If your furry friend has a special day —like a birthday or adoption anniversary— please let me know. I enjoy hosting small “puppy parties” and making homemade pupcakes, decorating the space to make their stay extra special. 🎂🐾 📸 I also love photographing pets during their stay and sharing some of those joyful moments on Rover or social media, showing happy, everyday activities. If you’d prefer that I don’t post photos of your pet, please just let me know —I’ll fully respect your wishes. 💕 💻 Since I work from home, I’m not available for in-person meet & greets, as I often have meetings or need to be on call, and I wouldn’t be able to give you the full attention you deserve. I also made this decision because most of my apartment is carpeted, and some people prefer not to remove their shoes when entering. In our home, we don’t wear shoes indoors, keeping the environment clean and safe for the pets. At the entrance, we have a paw-cleaning station, where every time the dogs go out or come back in, we wash their paws with dog-safe soap and water before letting them walk freely inside the apartment. I’m happy to share details about the soap I use, and if your pet has any allergies or needs a specific type of shampoo, please let me know so I can use their own product and ensure their comfort and safety. 🧼🐾 It’s also very important to let me know if your dog has any food allergies or follows a strict diet. Sometimes a small piece of fruit, a bit of cheese, or a treat dogs love 🧀🍎 might sneak its way in —and I always want to make sure everything your pet receives is completely safe. 💕🐶 For Drop-Off and Pick-Up, you’re welcome to come right up to my door to say goodbye to your furry friend, or if you prefer, you can sit on the porch for a few minutes to have a calm and loving farewell. The same applies when you come for pick-up —I want both you and your pet to feel relaxed and supported during that transition. 💛🐾 🐾 I’m also very flexible with schedules and family needs. If you live nearby, I can offer free pick-up for your pet. If you’re a bit farther away, I can still help with transportation for a small, low fee, just to cover travel costs. I’m also flexible with drop-off and pick-up times —you can set them through the app, but if something unexpected comes up or you need to adjust, please don’t stress! I completely understand. If your dog is with me for day sitting and something comes up at the last minute where they need to stay overnight, don’t worry —these things happen, and I’ll gladly make sure they’re safe and comfortable for the night. 🌙🐾 And if your booking was last-minute and you didn’t have time to buy food or any items your pet might need for their stay, I can take care of that for you and do the shopping myself to make sure your furry friend has everything they need. 🛒💕 If, for any reason, your pet needs to extend their stay, I can often make exceptions when possible, even if Rover shows no availability. My priority is to keep everything stress-free for both you and your pet. 💕 That said, I’m happy to schedule a 15-minute virtual tour of my home, send videos of the community and the dog park, and meet through a video call before your pet’s stay. This way, you can feel completely comfortable and confident before leaving your furry family member with me. 💕 Thank you so much for considering my services! I can’t wait to meet you and your beloved pet. 🌿🐶 I work from home full-time, so your pet will always have company, attention, and supervision throughout the day. I’m available on weekdays, weekends, and even for last-minute bookings, giving you peace of mind knowing your furry friend is always cared for and never left alone. I live in a safe, pet-friendly community with its own dog park, perfect for daily walks, exercise, and playtime. At home, your pet will meet Athenas, our sweet and friendly dog who loves both dogs and cats. If needed, I can provide crate space or separate areas to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: I have taken care of all kinds of pets since I was a kid. I believe animals have a way of brightening life and I love to help and take care of any that need it! My experiences include: dogs of all sizes and ages, and cats of all ages! I travel often but have the time to fit house sitting and pet sitting into my schedule. I’m available weekdays and weekends for whatever you need help with! I follow any instructions given to a fault and enjoy teaching animals new tricks if allowed. Every animal deserves play time and downtime which I can offer.

“Jordan was a lifesaver and stepped in to cat/house sit when our previous sitter had to cancel last minute. She is communicative and sent daily photos. I would definitely recommend her for anyone looking for pet sitting!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I’ve cared for both energetic puppies and older pets who need a slower pace and extra patience. I’m great at picking up on individual needs—whether that’s sticking to a strict feeding schedule, handling clean-up routines, or giving pets the one-on-one attention they deserve. I am free most weekdays after 3pm and open on weekends. I can guarantee you my undivided attention to your pets. I will make sure they are taken care of wonderfully. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean, and calm space with plenty of love and attention. I follow their routines carefully to keep things familiar and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the space, follow all instructions, and ensure their pet feels secure and cared for. Clear communication and gentle, attentive care help build trust every step of the way.

About: I have volunteered at the animal shelter since I was 14 years old. I have taken care of my friends and family's pets. These pets have included cats, dogs, and guinea pigs. I have experience taking care of and raising kittens. I used to foster cats. I am also pursuing a career as a veterinarian. I am a full-time student with most of my classes in the morning. I should have plenty of time to look after your pets in the afternoons or weekends! I take precautions when I am in someone else's home. I will monitor the pet(s) closely to make sure that they do not get injured.
