About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have experience with both puppies and adult dogs. My family has had four dogs in the past 11 years, and I’ve helped take care of, train, and walk all of them. Because I love animals so much, friends and family have trusted me to pet-sit since I was 11. I know how to handle different ages and personalities, so whether it’s keeping up with an energetic puppy or making sure an older dog is comfortable, I’ve got it covered! I’m working part time as a server on weekends so my availability will be Monday-thursday’s and i am also a college student so mondays and wednesdays would be a later schedule. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether in my home or a someone else’s, I follow their usual routine, give them plenty of attention, and make sure they get exercise, playtime, and any needed care. I also keep owners updated.
“Kiley was absolutely wonderful to my sweet pup. She provided play time and a potty break in the middle of the day when I was at work. And even managed to befriend my cat who hides from everyone. Her time and attention given to my pup was greatly appreciated by both the humans and the dog who was much happier being at home than at doggy daycare.”

“Stephanie left really good, detailed feedback from every visit. Which I really appreciated!! I could tell that my pupper was taken care of well while I was out of town and I would be very happy to work with her again in the future!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for years, both professionally and personally. My daughter and I share a deep bond with our rescue cat Luna, and together we’ve learned how to build trust, respect routines, and honor each animal’s personality. I bring that same dedication to every pet I meet, offering not just care, but companionship, safety, and a sense of home while you’re away. I work part-time, but I’m never alone in caring for pets, my daughter, who studies online, helps me throughout the day. While I’m at work, she watches over our furry friends, making sure they feel safe, entertained, and never alone. Together, we create a warm environment where your pet is always part of the family. I take care of pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable. I follow your pet’s routine carefully. Feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. My daughter helps me when needed, so your pet will always have company and attention. We treat every animal with love, patience, and respect, making sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away.
About: I am an animal science major at Louisiana State University and minoring in Psychology (specifically behavior), I have worked on an internship working with K9's, I love going on walks, and I love dogs! I am available weekdays, I do not work weekends and holidays. Currently I do not have another job, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pups! I currently do not have any furry friends, however I like to have a set plan for my visit/walk, so I can make sure that the time with your animal is used efficiently. I take extra precautions while with any animal. I make sure animals are safe and comfortable in their environment.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience with pets! I have worked with a wide range of dogs of all ages and breeds, and I am adept at customizing my care to meet the specific needs of each individual pet. I care for them by feeding, providing fresh water, taking them for walks, administering medication if needed, and providing attention and playtime for the pets. I am a recent grad working remote from home so I have a lot of time in my day to love and care for your pet(s)! I understand how important it is to build a bond with pets and provide a comfortable environment for them which is essential to ensure their happiness and health while their owners are away. I care for them by feeding, providing fresh water, taking them for walks, administering medication if needed, and providing attention and playtime for the pets.
About: My husband and I have been taking care of dogs / cats of all sizes and ages for multiple years now. We provided training and grooming while we were in NYC, we continued with rover while we lived in PA and we are so excited to now be in Reston. We both work from home so your pet will always get a ton of love and attention while staying with us. We know it’s always hard to leave them so we make sure to send you daily updates and photos. My husband and I currently WFH and are available during the day. I can walk / feed your pup and other animals during prime times of the day. We live in an apartment that’s perfect to make your pup feel very cozy while having a lot of open space for them to run around and play. I am very active so your pup will return exercised, played out and ready for cuddles
“Laurie was excellent! She was very sensitive to my cat since it was the first time she watched Ava. Laurie was respectful of Ava’s boundaries and made it easier for Ava to warm up to her. I will most definitely hire Laurie again.”

About: I provide reliable, attentive pet care and understand how important it is to keep pets comfortable while their owners are away. Every booking includes morning and evening updates with photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I have hands-on experience caring for multiple pets at once, including dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, exercise, playtime, and ensuring each pet receives the individual attention they need. I've cared for family pets, friends' dogs, and pets with unique care requirements. In addition to dogs, I have experience caring for other animals such as lizards and fish, which has taught me the importance of following care instructions carefully and maintaining consistent routines. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, stress-free experience while keeping their normal schedule as consistent as possible. As a college student with a flexible schedule, I'm often available for daytime walks, drop-in visits, and extended companionship during house-sitting stays. I'm currently a full-time college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide pet care throughout the week, including weekdays, weekends, and varying times of day. This flexibility helps me accommodate your pet's routine and provide consistent care while you're away. Because of my flexible schedule, I'm often able to spend more time with pets throughout the day than sitters who work traditional 9–5 jobs, helping them receive more companionship, exercise, and attention. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment in every pet-sitting experience. Since I care for pets in their own home, I respect your space and maintain your pet's normal routine so they feel secure and comfortable while you're away. During walks, your pet's safety is my top priority. I use secure leashing, stay aware of our surroundings, and avoid potentially unsafe situations such as busy roads or unfamiliar dogs. I take the time to understand each pet's behavior, personality, and comfort level to ensure safe and enjoyable walks.

About: I've had dogs since I was born and have always been taking care of them. I specifically have experience with senior pets and puppies, I've helped potty train quite a few puppies. I'm a full time student, so I mostly do pet care in the afternoons. My availability can change based on certain things like exams, but I will always update in a timely manner. I would never expect something of you that I can't do myself! I understand that all pets are different and will always do what's best for them individually. If some need more time getting used to me I don't mind working with this.
About: I’ve taken care of and walked dogs/ cats since I was around 10. My neighbors and family have trusted me with their animals while away. I am currently working full time, therefore the hours on my profile are what work best for me at this moment in time! Thank you! With having many animals currently and growing up, I have a fenced yard where my animals are able to roam freely while being carefully watched over. When walking my dogs, I have a special harness and leash that allows me to safely walk them around my neighborhood. I am experienced with crating dogs and cats.
“Emily was absolutely amazing with my fur baby Kay! I knew that she was in very safe hands and felt even better with Emily sending me pictures to keep me updated. I would rate her a 10/10 if I could!”

About: I have been house sitting for 25 years along with house cleaning. Since I have retired from cleaning houses I now have more time to house sit. I have always loved animals and they love me dearly. All the dogs and cats are always so loving and I love to spend that with them. I follow the instructions of the owner. I make sure that your fur babies take the medicine required and eat when they are suppose to. I also take the dogs for walk unless you just let them out back in the fenced back yard.
“Samantha did a great job. She was on time, played with the girls and ensured they were happy while we were gone. We got good photos and she kept us up to date on them. We really appreciate what she did and her willingness to come to the house and let the girls out for us. Great job Samantha!”

Haymarket dog parents share their Rover experiences
Isabella took wonderful care of our Lab and Pomeranian. She was reliable, caring, and kept us updated while we were away. She was also able to help us on short notice, which we were incredibly grateful for. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands. We would definitely book with her again! 🐾

Addy was perfect! She was available last minute over the Christmas holiday, thank goodness. She took great care of our large lab and small corgi. They looked very happy in their check-in pictures. Addy followed our instructions to a T, was on time, and communicated very well. We look forward to using her services in the future. I highly recommend her!

Aimee is wonderful, she was very attentive to me and my pet. She took the time to make sure that I was comfortable before my first booking with her she was super close which was great, her kindness was ever present each time we interacted. I an excited that I found her and will book with her again!!!

Alayna was amazing! She responded to my request right away and set a meet and greet with my pup who instantly liked her. She took great care of her with a good mix of walk/play time and cuddles. Alayna is also very knowledgeable about dog care and working on commands. I highly recommend her!
