Top rated Government District house sitters

“Ella was great. Highly communicative. Kept me with updates. Confirmed her understanding of the dog’s health instructions. Overall, she was a great sitter and companion for my pup. Highly recommend!”


“Laina was great with Daisy! She spent a lot of time at our house with her, walked her, gave her lots of cuddles and sent pictures! Will definitely be using her again!!”


“So thankful to have found Denise! She is responsive, responsible, and knowledgeable. My cat requires daily medications and subcutaneous fluids which Denise was able to administer without incident. I have so much peace of mind having a sitter who I can trust!”


“Clover took amazing care of our dogs and house. It was the first time in six years we have left our dogs with a sitter. She kept us updated with how the dogs were and sent pictures. We would boon Clover anytime to take care of our pups again.”


“Ashley did a great job taking care of Winnie. When Winnie had a small issue she identified it quickly and proposed a solution that worked. She kept us informed with photos everyday. The house was in perfect condition when we came home. Would definitely recommend her.”


“Allison did a great job house sitting and taking care of our newly fostered German Shepherd, Mabel! It was nice to have my mind at ease while I was away for the day knowing she was with Allie! Allie was very communicative and willing to do whatever to make me and Mabel comfortable :)”



“Arika was an amazing pet sitter. We have two dogs and a cat, one of the dogs being just over a year old, and very needy. Arika handled it like a champ and did not complain once. The house was clean when we got home and all the pets were happy and obviously well taken care of. She sent photos and videos throughout the week and even took the pups to the dog park. She took great care of our home and brought in all our packages while we were gone. I would recommend Arika to anyone looking for a pet sitter or house sitter.”


“Addison is great with Brody! She sent regular updates and catered to our every need. When I got back it was as if I had never left ☺️☺️ my pup was even keeled and taken care of. I would recommend to anyone looking for a loving and trustworthy sitter! 🥰”


“Dylan is, hands down, one of the absolute best pet + house sitters I have ever hired. First off, when he came in for the meet and greet, he greeted me then immediately got on the floor to let my two small dogs come greet/sniff/get comfortable with him. No other sitter has ever done that, and I respected it SO much. He asked about cleaning supplies, the parts of the house I was comfortable with him being in, and their schedules. He came prepared with his schedule to make sure we were on the same page about when he would have other responsibilities and the dogs would be alone, instead of me having to ask. He really emphasized the importance of establishing trust and even listened with empathy when I told him about a recent negative experience I had with another sitter on rover. For the stay, he sent plenty of pictures and updates and was so communicative if anything outside of what we discussed came up. I never once felt like the dogs weren’t getting the best care possible, and that matters to me more than anything! I came back to happy, but tired pups which let’s me know they got in plenty of exercise and attention!! Lastly, I walked in to an absolutely SPOTLESS house. Top to bottom. Sheets washed, bathroom scrubbed, couch fluffed, the whole nine yards. I’ve found that you really, truly do get what you pay for and I’m so thankful to have found Dylan who is well worth the rate he charges. I will be hiring him again, and want to calm any nervous pet owners who may have had a previously bad experience with someone less than trustworthy. I’ve found an incredible sitter in Dylan!!”


“Lauren is wonderful! This was the second time she’s watched my kitty when I was out of town. Great communication. Several pics shared everyday. Will be using Lauren again when I’m out of town next!”


“First time user for our first babies. Karly was great. She went over and above sending updates and pictures. Bristol and Memphis just loved her!”


“As always Holly was awesome! She worked around our schedule with ease and went above and beyond taking care of our pups! We recently added a new 7 month old puppy to the family and she took amazing care of both dogs! Will definitely be using Holly’s services again!”


“Leaving this review will probably come back to bite me because it’ll mean he won’t be available when we need him next time. Hunter was an exceptional house sitter! He took fantastic care of our whole household of pets—two dogs, four cats, a Conure, a tortoise, and fish—and sent daily photo updates that gave us total peace of mind. He also went above and beyond by taking out the trash, washing dishes, and even laundering his sheets before leaving. Truly, the only “complaint” we had was that one of the cat’s bowls was only partially full when we got home, which was filled earlier in the day. Our experience was remarkable given everything else he managed so well. We’d welcome him back and highly recommend him to anyone needing a reliable and thoughtful sitter.”


“Lisa did a great job taking care of our pups! Our babies were brushed and walked twice daily. She also sent us daily “pupdates” so we can know how they did for the day including how much of their food was eaten and their behavior throughout the day. Our dogs were so happy with her and we would definitely have her again!”

“Alexis is amazing! She’s watched our Jax multiple times now. She’s very tentative with him and keeps us updated with messages and pictures while we’re away. Jax couldn’t ask for a better sitter!”


“Isaac took good care of Luna while I was away on a week long trip. He sent lots of updates and spent time playing with and walking her at home and around the apartment. He also quickly responded and agreed to drop in a final time after I told him I had a flight delay and would be coming home later than expected. Thanks for your help! Looking forward to booking with you next time I travel.”


“Priscila was a gem! She was reliable, consistent, communicative and a lovely house guest. We would absolutely hire her again to love and care for our pup while away.”


“Great sitter Nala was extremely happy and well taken care of!”


“Michelle is just fabulous! She house sat and watched my pup for the weekend. Not only was she great with communication and sent me many pictures and videos of my pup, but she left my house just as clean as I left it. I would recommend her to anyone, she is the best Rover I have had and am so happy to have found her!!!”



“David is very organized and engaged my dog very well. He asked the right questions to ensure he was ready to have a successful sit with my dog. He sent pictures and updated me on progress. David made both me and my dog at ease. Will definitely have him as my regular sitter.”
