“Jontia was fantastic! She handled two big dogs even when one of them likes to stop (she is on a weight loss journey reluctantly) and the other is young and hyper. She’s also very kind and easy to talk to! I would highly recommend.”

About: I have extensive experience in caring for both cats and dogs. I have a rescue Bombay cat named Mojo, who unfortunately has FIC (Feline Idiopathic Cystitis). However, this has made me proficient in administering medication to animals and monitoring them closely! Additionally, I grew up with many Pit Bulls in my childhood home. This has given me the ability to handle larger animals effectively. I actively volunteer at local shelters in my free time as well. I aim to create safe yet homely environments to ensure optimal well-being for every furry friend under my care. I am currently on summer break from college, granting me open availability. With no constraints on my schedule, I can provide round-the-clock attention and care to furry companions. Whether it's early morning walks, midday playtime, or late-night cuddles, I am fully committed to catering to the individual needs and preferences of each animal under my care. I provide a fenced backyard for safe playtime and a separate room for restful sleep. With the presence of my friendly cat, Mojo, companionship and socialization are encouraged. Animals are free to roam, including my room if comfortable.

About: Cat papi Trav. Good for watching after your little fluff of love while you’re out enjoying yourself. Avid pet lover, but have a soft spot for cats Work from home so I have time to sneak in belly rubs and ear scratches throughout the day. If your cat/dog isn’t the most social we car look at each other from the across the room. I have a 2 bed room condo. Enough space for all to enjoy themselves. A nice park for the walks, and nice windows for the cats to peer into the outside world.

About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my extensive experience and specialized skills in handling dogs of all ages and temperaments. I bring a deep understanding of canine behavior, which allows me to provide tailored care and training to meet the unique needs of each dog. I am well-versed in training puppies, focusing on foundational skills and positive reinforcement techniques to foster good behavior and a strong bond. For senior dogs, I offer compassionate care that includes managing age-related issues such as mobility challenges and medical needs, ensuring they remain comfortable and happy. In addition to training and age-specific care, I am committed to maintaining a structured routine that promotes a sense of security and well-being. My approach combines attentive supervision with engaging activities, making sure your dog receives both mental and physical stimulation. This personalized and holistic approach ensures that every dog in my care receives the attention and care they deserve. Getting to take care of animals simply is one of the most rewarding things around. Dogs are always so giving towards us, so I believe that it is my duty to give back to them whenever possible! Dogs have certainly done so much for my life and I simply want to make sure they have all the love and kindness they need to thrive. Getting to meet new dogs and help people out all at once is a dream come true for me! Although I’ll be the primary caregiver for your dog, my home is full of puppy love! I currently live with my significant other, and they are a huge dog lover! They’ve had dogs for their whole life and is always happy to bring a new pup into the mix. When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It’s a great way to make sure that we’re all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pup and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it’s always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Perhaps the best thing about me as a sitter is that I’m a full-time dog lover! I am home every day except for Thursday which means that your pup will have all the love and attention that they need. No one likes to keep their pooch cooped up in a kennel all day, so I make sure that they can roam free and clear as they please! As I’m home all day except for Thursday, I’m the perfect fit for dogs that are used to having their human around them during the day--or for ones that could benefit from that! If you can't afford my prices I can work with you on the price you can afford it's no problem. As a pet sitter, your routine might look something like this: - **Morning:** Arrive to feed the pets, take them for a walk, and handle any bathroom breaks. - **Midday:** Check in again for a short visit, playtime, or a quick walk, depending on the pet’s needs. - **Evening:** Return to feed the pets again, provide companionship, and handle any additional exercise or bathroom breaks. I care for parts in my home all my clients home by making sure they're safe to have the food and taking them for walks and playing with their toys with them everyday.

About: I have some pet care experience having owned two dogs in my childhood. I was responsible for their grooming, walking, and feeding, and I loved playing with them. I also have pet experience with fish, hamsters, and am currently a mother to a very sweet 5 year old kitty. I'm currently taking a leave of absence from working in the Pastry/Baking industry. While I have not worked in pet care full-time, I am an animal lover looking to take care of your furry friends. I will make their safety a priority in client's homes by keeping a close eye on them, as well as making sure they have stimulation and entertainment.

About: Im a DC based management consultant with a soft spot for “furry baes”! I’m an experienced pet owner looking to help out my neighbors. You can count on me to be affectionate, trustworthy, and professional. When I’m not working or pet sitting, you can find me at a gallery opening, a new restaurant, at the local movie house, or spending time with my cat Javier. I fostered a dog this summer, and although I loved her dearly, I found her a fantastic home and taught her a few tricks! I love animals of all kinds, and they love me back! Contact me to schedule a visit. I’d love to meet your furry family member! I was unfortunately laid off last year from my consulting career. But that’s ok! I now have more time to connect with nature, decompress, and nurture my inner animal lover! I believe the best sitters and walkers enter your home with good energy, as animals often recognize when a human is well intentioned. I know how to approach pets, and most importantly, wait for them to approach me.

About: I’ve been around dogs, cats, and fish for basically my entire life. My family had three dogs and a cat so growing up, I helped out a lot. We adopted one, brought one home from a dog show, and saved one from a puppy mill, so I have knowledge in training processes for different pets of all sizes. I believe that animals are a key ingredient to a happy life, therefore I choose to always have them around me. I love animals so much and will take very good care of your fur child! I work a flexible part-time schedule, so I have plenty of open time for your pets. I'm available most weekday mornings and evenings, plus weekends, and I can often fit in last-minute requests. Your pet gets my full attention, never a rushed visit. In your home, I follow your pet's normal routine for feeding, walks, meds and bedtime. I double-check doors, gates and locks before I leave, keep dogs leashed on every walk, and send photo updates so you always know how they're doing. I keep your vet's info and an emergency contact handy just in case. If I'm hosting, my apartment is calm, clean and pet-proofed, and your pet will never be left unsupervised for long stretches.

About: I'm a good dog sitter and a dog walker because I treat dogs like they my family and also my best friend I play with them and also take them to the park. Dogs also make me happy and they show me love and I will show them love. I never got paid for walking dog or just watching them but I want to get paid because I love doing my job. One thing I also like to do is give the dog a bath that's like the joy of having a dog. Plus having dogs around each can be a joy and a happy with to the other dogs with me. I treat dogs like they human I love and care for the dogs. Pet care fits into my daily routine by making sure pets receive the attention, love, and care they need. I understand the importance of feeding them on schedule, providing fresh water, taking them for walks or giving them exercise, and keeping their environment clean and safe. I would also make time for play, companionship, and monitoring their overall well-being. I am responsible, dependable, and willing to adjust my schedule to ensure pets are comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. I follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, bathroom breaks, exercise, playtime, and any special needs. In a client’s home, I respect their space, keep the pet’s area clean, and maintain the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. I also provide companionship, pay attention to changes in behavior, and communicate with the owner about how their pet is doing. My goal is to treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same care and attention I would want for my own.

About: I've been caring for dogs for most of my life, from growing up with our family dog, to raising my own dogs for the past 15+ years. I've cared for breeds ranging from Jack Russells and Border Terriers to pit-mixes, giving me experience with a variety of personalities and energy levels. While I've never owned a cat, I'm a fan of them too and would be happy to care for feline family members with the same patience and attention. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine, and with my current contract work, I have full-time availability for dog walks, drop-in visits, and cat care throughout the week. My flexible schedule allows me to provide dependable, attentive care and accommodate a variety of timing needs, whether your pet needs a midday walk, a check-in while you're away, or some extra companionship. I know that leaving your pet with someone else is a big act of trust, so I treat every visit as if I were looking after one of my own. My goal is to keep their routine familiar, comfortable, and full of reassurance, whether that means walkies, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company. I'll follow your instructions carefully, make sure they have plenty of fresh water and attention, and send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your best mate is happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: Hello there! My name is Romon, you can also call me Griz. I suppose my friends see me as the momma or papa bear of the group haha. Anyway I've been taking care of my friend's, family's, and of course personal 'furry best friends'. I have a background in personal training and fitness. Never really ran into a dog that didn't like or respect me at least after the first couple treats or games I was able to play with them. Recently lost two friends one moved away the other, Sasha; a poodle mix of 12 years, passed away I was luckily able to spend more time with her during 2020 before she had to go. Her memories are still with me and I know many are back to work and wish they could spend more time with their newest pups. We can work together to make sure they're, well taken care of, and I just wanted to help out and lessen the load of watching over these wonderful epitomes of joy and energy. I've walked, sitted, played with, slept besides, and even cleaned up after all sorts of dogs from puppyhood to very senior dogs, 10lbs to 100+lbs believe it or not, can't seem to get a break from them, which I don't mind! Lastly I hope to get to know your fuzzy yet amazing family members on a professional and even better, personal level. Feel free to message for any questions I pay very close attention to any special instructions. I've recently found great streams of income im able to maintain at home while working on my online degree Fortunately my major for the 3rd semester in a row is online only. My schedule is pretty open and flexible so I wanted to make the most of my situation and again the main thing is to help out new or out of practice pet owners. Im free at all hours of day and night outside of a select few evenings where I train clients to achieve their fitness goals. Mostly online so feel free to reach out and schedule with me if youd like recurring services. We'll make it work. Im a capable and loving pet owner that doesn't mind breaking a sweat. I would love to keep your fur baby busy AND happy whether its a small walk with portable water bowls, at home self made doggy puzzles to keep their minds sharp and busy, even if I am tired, for those longer sessions. I have access and experience to great doggy parks equipped with fencing and great walking areas, and lots of car space for those longer trips or incase of an emergency where I have to safely transfer your fluffy children quickly. I have a lot of experience to share and rely on too much to list here but go ahead and quiz me at Fanaticallymotivated email on google for those of you new or unsure of my services with the Rover service provider. I hope to work with you both and take care of any worries.

About: I love all the dogs. I enjoy playing with them and taking walks. I love long hiking in the parks where me and dogs can be closer to nature. I have always met only great dogs. They all have different personalities and this is something that requires patience and understanding to allow the dog connect with me. However, as big or small the dog can be, it has no difference for me. In my life I had only one time dog biting me and it was when I was a child and was running through the neighbor's property and the dog did his duty and started running after me. He scratched my left leg with his teeth, but it was more of a gentle warning, than a bite. Dogs listen to me very well. Sometimes I get surprised myself how well they respond to me. This is something I would enjoy doing with all my heart Dogs are amazing creatures! Thank you, Oksana

About: I have been caring for pets for most of my life and understand that every animal has unique needs, routines, and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me for years to care for their dogs and cats while they are away. I provide attentive, dependable care that includes feeding, walking, administering basic medications when needed, maintaining clean food and water areas, and ensuring pets receive plenty of affection and companionship. I am comfortable caring for senior pets, following detailed care instructions, and maintaining consistent routines to help pets feel safe and comfortable. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a beloved family member, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can have peace of mind while they are away. I currently have a flexible schedule and work part-time as a freelance professional, which allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to the pets in my care. I am generally available Monday through Friday between 11:00 AM and 5:00 PM for drop-in visits, walks, and pet care services. I also offer boarding and pet sitting on weekends and can accommodate many scheduling needs with advance notice. I enjoy spending time with animals and strive to provide consistent care, companionship, exercise, and attention while their owners are away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a clean, child-free home that provides a calm and quiet environment for visiting pets. I do have one cat who will be kept completely separate from guest pets to ensure everyone's comfort and safety. While my yard is not fenced, all outdoor time will be carefully supervised, and dogs will always be leashed during walks and potty breaks. I closely follow each pet's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I believe in maintaining open communication and will provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is receiving attentive, loving care.

About: As a lifelong animal lover and a dog owner myself, caring for pets comes naturally to me. My own puppy, who my partner and I rescued two years ago struggled with anxiety. She taught me how to read body language and adjust my approach which helps to meet each furbabies specific needs. Whether your pup needs high energy play, extra patience, or a gentle low stress walk, I will give the care they need to feel safe and happy! I’m looking forward to helping out local dog owners! My availability fluctuates so just send me a request and ill see what i can do! I naturally take daily evening walks to stay active, so having a furry friend join me would be a joy. If you need reliable and attentive help with your pup during those times I'd love to connect! Your pets happiness and safety mean everything to me! Whenever I'm caring for your furbaby I will treat them just like my own! Ill stick strictly to their usual routines for meals, meds, and playtime so they feel comfortable and loved. On walks, I'm super mindful of secure leashes and keeping a close eye on our surroundings. You can always count on me for cute photos and updates on how our visit went and leaving your home safe, locked, and tidy!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Hillcrest Heights is $19 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $5 and $28 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

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

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

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 walker 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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

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.
