“Joe was very accommodating and took excellent care of Benji. He kept me updated and made the entire experience worry free. I would highly recommend Joe to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
“We had a great experience with Jackalyn our dog sitter. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about Sasha’s well-being. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Sasha came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We really appreciated the attention to detail and the genuine affection shown to her. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend Jackalyn to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter”
“Matthew with family is very accommodating and will entertain your dog for a great price! They went swimming and on long walks. Executed Ozzie’s food plan and supplements no problem. They sleep in the bed with their dogs which my dog liked. I’ll be a return customer if they’ll have us.”
“I’ve been dragging my feet on leaving this review for one reason alone: I want to keep Elizabeth to myself! She is the best sitter I’ve been able to find on this app, and she is great at communicating both prior to a booking and during as well. My dog comes back happy and tired every time he stays with her and is always so excited to go back to her house. I trust her with my dog every time!”
“Joseph was very communicative and shared pictures of our pups with us daily. He followed all directions we gave him and made sure our pups feel at home under his care. I would recommend Joseph as a pet sitter and would entrust him with watching our pups again in the future. Thanks for taking care of our babies!”
“Stephanie and Luis did an amazing job dog sitting! Communication was great from start to finish, and they kept me updated with pictures, which really put my mind at ease. They were so welcoming and even created a special space in their home for Coco and Chloe. I’d definitely trust them and rebook again!”
“Lia’s communication is always on point! Charlie and I recently moved to DC and looking for a new sitter. Lia was honestly the best sitter for Charlie! She went above and beyond for Charlie even accommodated to his spoiled picky eating behavior 😂. Honestly I want to gate keep Lia but I think everyone deserves to have a sitter like her.”
About: I am a true Capitol Hill dog lover and I have always had a strong passion for animals, mostly for dogs. I have been caring for dogs since I was child, taking care of my mother’s beloved shitzu. Taking care of her helped me acquire basic canine behavior and taught me the responsibility of taking care of a pet. Most recently I raised my own best friend, Gelato an English Bulldog. I gained my breeder experience with Gelato and cared for her and her 6 puppies, until they were rehomed at 8 months. I enjoy taking long walks, which I consider the ultimate stress reliever and best way to exercise. I have no problem getting my hands dirty. I have 20 years of experience in the customer service field and enjoy striving to provide the best experience to my clients. In my personal time I am spending time with my 2 little girls teaching them how to play sports, and of course how to be loving pet owners. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page! I’m currently working part time and will be available to walk most pets during early mornings hours during the week and mid day and evenings during the weekend. I definitely would like to know your pets temperament, and what might scare them. I know they will feel most comfortable at home but if they are with me, I’d like to keep a calm, pet friendly setting for them to be comfortable in.
“Allie is wonderful! She has watched my pup twice and each time I’ve felt confident he is being very well taken care of. She was also incredibly understanding after weather delayed my flight home and I had to pick him up much later than expected. Would highly recommend!”
“Kelly was awesome with our Benji. Benji doesn't normally like strangers but he instantly loved her and felt comfortable in her home. She sent pics and updates throughout and was very flexible with drop off and pick up. Benjis stomach was upset and Kelly was able to give him meds and update us on his poops. Our first time using Rover and she helped us become comfortable with it.”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Zulma. From the moment I walked into her house she made me feel completely at ease about leaving my dogs in her care. She asked thoughtful questions about their routines and treated them as if they were her own. Throughout my time away, she provided regular photos and videos, that brought me so much peace of mind. It was clear they were happy, well cared for and completely comfortable with her. I was able to actually enjoy my trip knowing they were in capable hands. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and generally caring I will highly recommend Zulma. I’m so grateful to have found her.”
“Vania was super friendly! And, she sent photos of our cat to assure she was settling in! She also cleaned the litter box! Would definitely recommend her for pet sitting!!”
“Jasmine and Stormi were great with Roxy. Roxy was transitioning between dog foods during her stay and Jasmine handled it like a pro. I would highly recommend Jasmine for your next trip.”
“Janel and Harvey were wonderful! Alfie enjoyed his time at the cabin and I received plenty of pictures and updates throughout his time with them. I felt that Alfie was safe and well-cared for, making my vacation more relaxing while I knew he was in good hands!”
“Another excellent stay with Diego and Coco! We needed a comfortable stay for our dog while out of town and everything went smoothly. She was happy to see Diego again when we dropped her off and daily updates reassured us she was doing well. Will book again in the future!”
“Ms. Patience took great care of my little one. Sent plenty of updates and she took Badu on 2x the walks she usually gets. Definitely recommended her to everyone with pets that I know. Will use her services in the future :)”
“Abigal was very kind with Chiquita, responsive and very communicative with pictures and daily updates on how she was doing. She accommodated a late arrival and a last minute change in pickup, and her care for my pup was visible. Great sitter and would gladly book again!”
“Jennifer and Louis were very friendly and accommodating for me and my pup first overnight stay I was very nervous in the beginning due to it being my dog first overnight stay. I a new to the app and was looking for a playful friendly dog that my dog can stay and play with occasionally. We have found one thank you Jennifer and Louis for your hospitality pictures and videos everything went great!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hillcrest Heights
Audrey has watched T’Challa twice now over this past month since I’ve traveled for work. She’s been super responsive when I inquire about availability and also when I’m checking in. I also love that there’s a dogpark on her rooftop—how fancy is that to see them hanging out up there?! She takes such good care of my little guy and I’m so grateful for her and her super cute pup! I’d recommend Audrey — 10/10!
Prompt, personable and informative. Jotrice demonstrates great care and experience working with large dogs. She sent picture and videos of the fur babies in her care and my Kali loved being apart of the pack. She thoughtfully ask about my old girl’s pressure spots to make sure she was comfortable. At pick-up Kali couldn’t decided if she wanted to stay or go home! That’s a great sign! I would recommend and would definitely use again should the need arise.
Cindy was great. She is kind and provided great communication during our dog taz’s stay. She sent daily pictures and updates. When picking up Taz he seemed like he was comfortable and did not want to leave. I would highly recommend Cindy. I plan to use her again in the future.
Shelby was one of the best sitters Miso has ever had- she was easygoing, super communicative, and made sure Miso received the absolute best care even though Miso has an ever growing list of needs as she’s gotten older. Miso came back happy and well-rested and really enjoyed having access to a backyard!
Brieana and her family were absolutely amazing! We had a last minute cancellation with the person who typically watches Vito and she responded immediately and set up a meet greet. We could sense the comfort Vito felt with the family the second he walked in so we already had an overwhelming feeling of calm going into our weekend. When picking him up he was so happy but also super relaxed and it was clear he had a great stay with them. I couldn’t suggest Brieana enough. She will be at the top of our list for Vito I’m pretty sure he’s found a new best friend 😊.
Cristian was amazing with Chinnu. Chinnu really enjoyed his time with Cristian. He kept us updated with many cute photos during our travel. When our flight was delayed Cristian gave us so much peace of mind. I would highly recommend Cristian as a dog sitter and will be using him again!
Max is our go-to sitter. He takes such good care of our dog and always sends photo updates throughout the stay. We feel great about the care our pup always gets when we send her to stay with Max and highly recommend his care to anyone on the fence about who to go to with their own pet needs.
Elizabeth was great to work with, sent me daily pictures and updates of Zoe and was flexible when I needed to change the pick up time. She and Kim clearly cared for Zoe and asked for updates on how she was doing after I had picked her up. I will definitely book future stays for Zoe with them!
Joy has been our go to for over a year now. We love that she only takes one family at a time so the experience is more personable. She has a fenced in yard that my dogs love. She is also very prompt at responding at requests and general messages. Thank you Joy! -Deuce and Storm
Serena is fantastic and a great person. When a problem came up between my dog and an off leash dog, she immediately texted/called/video called and kept me updated the whole time. While my dog was happy to see me, she was mad she had to leave Serena because she got all the attention and walks she demands. Highly recommend Serena and any dog will have the time of their life with her
Melissa was incredible with our Bear Bear. He struggles with separation anxiety, but her warm and gentle demeanor put him completely at ease. She kept us in the loop with tons of photos — Bear playing, enjoying treats, running around the backyard, and snuggling up. It didn't take long for him to go from anxious to absolutely in Love. We'll definitely be booking Melissa again. She's the best!

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
94% of Hillcrest Heights sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Hillcrest Heights landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Hillcrest Heights home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Hillcrest Heights.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Hillcrest Heights sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MD ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
