About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10, starting with my own Maltese, Snowball, who I’ve raised since he was a puppy. From walks to bath time to snuggles, I’ve been hands on every step of the way with the support of my family. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me with their pups too, knowing I treat every dog like my own. I’m attentive, patient, and happy to care for senior dogs, small breeds, and playful pups alike. I work a part-time job at my college on Wednesdays, but I’m available to sit any other day of the week! I have lots of time to give your pup attention, playtime, and outdoor walks. I’m especially free for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 2pm. I have a fenced yard and a sweet older dog named Snowball who gets along well with dogs, cats, and children. At my home, I make sure pets are fed on time, have fresh water, and get plenty of affection and attention. I love keeping their routines consistent and providing a calm and safe space. If I’m caring for pets in your home, I will follow your instructions closely to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for.
About: Been doing dog walking in DC for 3 years as well as house sitting. People relied on me to walk, feed, and play with their fur babies. I enjoy walking the outdoors and spending every moment with the puppies! I am currently available part time but I’m willing to work on weekends, weekdays, and even holidays! I work during the day, afternoon, and even evenings! I have a fenced yard that is secured, I made sure that each dog is harnessed on and ready to go before each walk. At the end of the walk I made sure to give them plenty of water, food, and love before parting ways!
About: I've owned dogs and/or cats for most of my life and I’ve been boarding and dog walking for the past 4 years. I have a large yard and I enjoy taking long hikes on my neighborhood trail and beyond. My children are aged 13, 15, and 18. They are respectful, loving, and playful with the dogs/cats that we have cared for. I work part time as a preschool teacher. During the school year I work Tuesday to Friday 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. So I am available to take dogs out for walks in the morning, afternoon, and evenings. I have a house with a large fenced in yard and an energetic hound mix that loves to play and run. Dogs are allowed on the furniture. There is space for a doggy bed and I feed the dogs separately. I take the dogs out on two 15-30 minute walks a day. I also take them on a half day/all day hike once or twice a week.
“Hailey came to the house to take care of our cat while we were out of the country and we could not have been happier. She was super flexible with our needs and schedule and the checkins and pictures were great. The only issue is now I think our cat misses her more than being happy to see us :).”
“Sharon took excellent care of our house and 2 cats - the shy boy even slept next to her which is unusual. She left our cats content and our home just how we left it. Will book again!”
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life, and recently lived with a cat whom I assisted caring for in my last living situation. I currently co-own 3 dogs of all different ages, breeds, and sizes, and I love every minute of it (and have all my life). Given my deep love for animals, am dedicated to treating each pet with the utmost level of care, respect, and integrity. I have experience caring for puppies, middle aged dogs/cats, and senior dogs/cats and eager to assist in caring for yours :) I currently am transitioning careers and have ample time for visits and walks. I love exercise and I love animals and with this downtime I have currently, I have availability mostly everyday for a range of different times. I will be unable to have dogs in my home given one of my dogs doesn’t do well with animals he is unfamiliar with, but when it comes to supervising pets, I am very attentive and always keep an eye on and engage with them while I am in the home/yard. I tend to be paranoid, and therefore am extra attentive when outside given pets can manage to escape from even fenced in yards from time to time. Because I am currently co- raising a puppy, I am used to keeping an eye out for destructive behavior and accidents.
“Katie did a great job with taking care of my dog while we were away. On time, gave her meds, and send me a bunch of cute photos. I will definitely ask her to next time I am away, and I would recommend her to anybody! Thank you!”

Charleen D.
“Charleen cares for any pet like it’s her own. I have a rowdy Irish Terrier mix that always seems to be calm and preserved in her presence. Charleen has a natural instinct for understanding animals’ needs, responding to their energy with patience and confidence. Lastly, Charleen is very thorough with things like feeding schedules, exercise routines, and emotional cues, ensuring every pet feels comfortable and loved. I couldn’t think of anyone better to recommend for watching all types of pets, especially those that need more attention and are very hyper.”
Tori Y.

“Christina is a true animal lover. For as long as I've known her, she has always been very caring and considerate, especially towards our four legged friends. Her and her boyfriend have a beautiful german shepherd that they've raised from a puppy, as well as the sweetest pitbull puppy that they're taking great care to socialize and make sure she has the best life. Christina has also taken care of my cat on several occassions where I was either out of town or busy with work. She'd make an excellent dogwalker or petsitter. You could feel secure knowing that your beloved pet is in great hands!”

Hillandale cat parents share their Rover experiences
Grace was a great companion to our young cat while we were away. She was diligent in taking notes to ensure proper care, and our cat seemed happy when we returned home from a two-week trip. We will book Grace in the future and will recommend her to family and friends!!
Madison helped me out at the last minute when my normal sitter fell through! She was willing to do a video call so I could show her everything while she was at work which I was super grateful for, and took great care of my kitty :) she even gave him his medicine and took him outside in his stroller. I’ll definitely book Madison again!
Ariane was great for allowing me to book her over the holidays with only a little over a week's notice. My cat is pretty antisocial and not keen on strangers so she didn't need to be here for the full 30 mins. Ariane was able to efficiently able to care for my cat's needs in 5-10 minutes for her visits which is good for my cat in this introductory period. I am confident that in the future as my cat grows accustomed to her, Ariane would happily stay longer and love on her. For now, Ariane knew how long to stay in order to take care of my cat and let her not feel alone while also not stressing her out excessively by having a stranger in that. Finally, Ariane prepared extra food and water for my cat just before the snow storm hit knowing that she might not be able to make it over because the roads would be unsafe. She kept me informed the entire time of what was going on which I greatly appreciate.
