About: I'm so excited to welcome, play with and care for your furry love. Please read the following: I am accessible by phone all the time, and I love taking pictures, so you can expect to get lots of updates of how your dog is doing! Your dog’s stay will not overlap with other dogs so your dog will receive the care and attention he or she deserves! - DAYCARE: The neighborhood is very pet friendly. Doggy bags nearby. - WALKS: Can personally walk your dog up to 2 miles. We stay active! Give your dog the walk he/she deserves while you're away at work or on vacation. - DOGGY BAGS / DOGGY BOWLS: Please provide the necessary items your dog needs while away. It's a good idea to reserve dates as soon as you know you need me! We can schedule a time to meet briefly before the first stay so we can discuss details and get you familiar with my home. In your booking request, please include your drop off and pick up times. Check out my rate and time guidelines above. I'm very flexible on times with a couple exceptions, which can be discussed. Please send your dog with their food (either pre-portioned or with a measuring scoop/cup), their treats, leash and collar and any other items such as toys. If your dog is crate trained, please bring that too. Please message me for any questions. I'm so excited to get to know you and looking forward to sitting your furry one. Weekly routine includes waking up, several walks during the day, constant updates to clients and ensuring there's a happy exciting day every day. The day varies as the client or pet! Pets are spoken to, walked, and given proper attention. For previous clients during week long stays, they were played with, fed and given baths in addition to constant updates!
“Trinity was absolutely amazing!! She was able to help with feeding and giving supplements to our older dog during her trips to walk him. We texted last minute to see if she could add on one more walk because our flight was delayed and she was so responsive (as she was the entire long weekend) and accommodated us with adding an additional walk same day. A lifesaver!! She is the best. Thank you Trinity!!”
“Cristina is amazing. She comes through for me always and helps me out a lot. There have been several times at the last minute she has been able to bail me out with emergency coverage and is just the best.”
“Jackie took such good care of our dogs, she listening to all the details of the care instructions, and took great care and consideration of our home. She truly went above and beyond and made us feel totally at ease that our pups and home were in good hands!! Thanks you Jackie!”
“Kellye was wonderful with Moose! They connected right away and Moose enjoyed their walks together.. Kelly was responsible and communicative and always fulfilled her commitment. I highly recommend her!”
“Perfect as always! Great communication, photos, and videos. All of my fur babies love her. She takes the best care of them and you tell how much she actually cares. She even made an adorable Christmas ornament of Rigby.! Couldn’t ask for more.”

About: I’m a loving cat mom who genuinely enjoys caring for animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m patient, attentive, reliable, and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m happy to provide plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, walks, feeding, litter box care, and regular photo or video updates so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is doing well. I’m also a nanny and a house cleaner, which has taught me to be responsible, organized, dependable, respectful of people’s homes, and attentive to the details that matter. I’m comfortable following specific instructions and routines, keeping spaces clean, and caring for pets as if they were my own. I’m also bilingual in English and Spanish and have reliable transportation, making it easy for me to provide dependable care. Most importantly, I truly love animals and want every pet in my care to feel happy, safe, and cared for. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I’m planning to dedicate my mornings every day to working with pets. I enjoy starting my mornings by caring for animals, whether that means taking dogs for walks, stopping by for drop-in visits, feeding pets, cleaning litter boxes, or simply giving them some love and attention. My schedule also allows me to be flexible and dependable with pet care, while continuing my work as a nanny and house cleaner later in the day. I’m excited to make caring for pets a consistent part of my everyday routine and provide reliable, loving care for families in my community. When caring for pets in a client’s home, safety is always one of my biggest priorities. As a nanny, I’m experienced with being responsible for someone else’s well-being and understand the importance of staying alert, following instructions, and preventing accidents before they happen. I also understand pet-specific safety, especially when it comes to opening doors, gates, and leaving or entering the home, as well as safely walking pets and making sure they cannot escape or get into anything they shouldn’t. I will always follow the owner’s instructions, keep pets supervised, and make sure their home and pets are treated with the same care and respect I would give my own.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and I’m a real dog lover. I understand dogs and, more importantly, I understand that every dog is different. They all have their own personalities, habits, likes and dislikes. I’ve always had a natural connection with dogs. Dogs tend to like me and are usually very comfortable and calm around me. I enjoy getting to know them and figuring out what makes each one happy and comfortable. I know how important it is to trust the person taking care of your dog. I’ll take care of yours the same way I’d want someone to take care of mine. I do consulting work primarily from home and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m around most of the day. I can easily work around your dog’s normal routine for walks, feeding, playtime or just hanging out. They won’t be left alone for long stretches of the day. I want your dog to feel comfortable and at home with me. I’ll follow whatever routine and instructions you give me, including feeding, walks, medications, sleeping arrangements or anything else they’re used to.

About: Hi, I’m Hannah! I have hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds and sizes, and I’ve grown up around a variety of animals—including dogs, cats, rabbits, and birds. I’m comfortable administering oral medications (including non-chewable pills and syringe liquids) and always handle pets with patience and care. Cat care is my specialty, however, I am great with dogs of all ages (puppy to senior)—whether they’re working on potty training or building confidence through positive reinforcement. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will remain my top priorities! My lifestyle is high active and I love being on the go, so no matter your pets' needs, there will always be time for an active sitter to tend to each pet's needs accordingly. Feel free to send any special instructions for your pet—I’m committed to following them closely. I always prioritize keeping your pet’s routine as consistent and familiar as possible to minimize stress and help them feel comfortable to build trust with me, especially when adjusting to someone new.
“Shirel communicated clearly with me. It was a rainy evening, but she was flexible and came 30 minutes later so we could give the rain a chance to stop… Which it did. Shayna enjoyed her time with Shirel. I plan on getting her again and would highly recommend her”
About: I have 15 years of pet experience ranging from dogs to rodents and bunnies. I have taken care of dogs and have experience with them through their various life stages—from puppy to senior. I am no stranger to administering oral and topical medications for dogs and small animals like rodents. I have 2 years of professional dog walking experience, and I am eager to walk a cat down the sidewalk sometime too. I am a graduate student visiting home for the summer. I’ll be in the Upper Marlboro area from May 20 to August 10th, 2024. Also, for dog walking, my availability is really from 12pm-4pm on the days I highlighted, so it is important you schedule me between that time frame. I will be returning to Florida to complete my degree. I am a rule follower. Before I take on a client I always do a meet and greet to ensure the dog or cat and I are a good fit. Animals can be particular and I avoid perilous situations by meeting the dog to discern whether they like me or not. Once you show me something twice, I never forget it, so providing me with detailed notes on how you want your dog to be walked and situated in your home is ideal.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Goldenrod
Jackie S. was a lifesaver for our high-energy pup! She came to our home for four days and did a wonderful job keeping up with his activity levels. She didn't just feed and walk him; she really took the time to play and give him the attention he needs to burn off steam. It was such a relief knowing he was in his own environment and being well-cared for. We will definitely be reaching out to her again!

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 Goldenrod. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

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.
