Priscilla was incredible with my senior pug, who has multiple health issues. She was kind, attentive, and her photo updates brought so much peace of mind while I was away. Thank you, Priscilla, for your wonderful care.

About: I have always had a love for dogs. Ever since I was 10 years old, my family has fostered and taken care of dogs. Now I continue to care for dogs part-time through dog sitting and walking. I am currently a student on summer break and have a very flexible schedule to care for your pet. Please reach out to determine the best schedule for your pet. I can provide long or short visits all days of the week! I am very communicative and open to the needs of you and your pet. I will always do my best to care for and keep your dog safe.

About: Hello! I’ve been caring for dogs since my own pup was just 8 weeks old. From fun off-leash adventures to cozy times at home, I’ve helped my dog grow into a friendly, well-socialized little buddy. I also enjoy walking g and looking after my brother’s dogs (medium and larger size). I always make sure each pet gets the attention they deserve and it makes me happy to see them happy and cared for. Thank you for reading this and I can’t wait to help you too. I’m currently taking a break from my professional career to spend some more time at home with both my children and pup. My kids are teens and at school during the day so I have time for extra dog walks and care. I have a fully fenced in large backyard and my Cockapoo pup is super friendly around both people and other dogs. I’d want to meet and greet before caring for your pup to ensure we are all comfortable and I understand how you’d like me to care for your pet in your home or around your neighborhood.

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 10 when I got my dog. I joined Rover 3 years ago and have experience walking, feeding, playing with, and caring for various types of dogs. I care for every dog as if they're my own! I just got home from college and am looking to make some money as I take a remote class this summer. That being said, my schedule is pretty open and flexible! I am very respectful of other's spaces and make sure to follow instructions carefully. I pay attention to detail and am a high energy individual. I truly love dogs so much and am happy to help take care of them when owners' lives get busy.

I must admit I was extremely nervous and a little hesitant to leave my girl with someone I had just met- but Alicia went the extra mile to make me feel up to date and at ease with everything that was going on when i was away. She updated me with pictures and videos and even got some presents for my cat so that they could play together. I totally recommend her! Thanks so much for your special attention with her!

Cheryl & Elmar each dropped-in to visit my new 10 week old puppy who is adapting to his parents going back to work. Hudson absolutely loved playing with them and they provided plenty of pictures and videos to ensure Hudson was comfortable and having a great time.

About: With over 15 years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages—rambunctious puppies, playful adults, and sweet seniors. I previously owned my own dog and now work closely with domestic and wild animals at an animal shelter, where I’ve developed the ability to build trust with new pets quickly. My home is currently pet-free, so I’d be thrilled to host your dog and give them my full attention and affection. Whether your pup needs structured care, medication, or just extra belly rubs, I bring patience, intuition, and genuine love to every visit. I currently have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive and consistent care throughout the day. I was recently laid off and now work limited hours outside of the house, so I spend most of my time at home. This makes pet care a perfect fit for my lifestyle—I truly enjoy the companionship and having a pet around keeps my routine joyful and active. I'm able to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special needs your pet may have. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where animals can relax and feel at ease. My home includes central air conditioning and heat to keep pets comfortable and safe during peak seasons, and there’s an elevator available for animals with mobility issues. I take time to build trust with each pet, follow their routines closely, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident while you're away. Your pet will be treated with the same love and care I’d give my own.

About: I have had dogs of all sizes my whole life. I’m a reliable and compassionate person who truly loves animals and understands the importance of making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience in administering medication to dogs. I work closely with a local rescue, which has given me experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, including shy or anxious pets. I am patient and attentive, and I treat every pet like family, making sure they receive plenty of love, exercise, and personalized care! I am an incoming medical student who plans to live locally. I do not currently work as I am getting ready to start school in July and spend my free time as an EMT on my town's ambulance corps, volunteering at an animal shelter, or at my local food pantry. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I want to create a calm, loving, and clean environment where pets can feel secure and relaxed. I closely follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, routines, and any special needs to make sure pets stay happy and comfortable while in my care. Through my experience working with a rescue, I’ve learned how to handle pets with different personalities and energy levels with patience and care.

About: Hello! Since I was a child I've been a huge lover of animals. I have my own 6-year-old boxer mix who is a sweetheart but a handful (leash reactive to other dogs) and volunteered as a dog walker for the DC Humane Rescue Alliance for six months in 2023, so I have a lot of experience handling dogs with a variety of temperaments and personalities. I currently have wide-open availability after being recently furloughed from my full-time job due to the Executive Order freezing foreign aid. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry babes! Having recently been laid off from my FT job working on maternal and infant nutrition programs due to the Executive Order freezing foreign aid, I have very flexible availability Sunday through Saturday from 8am-8pm. I am available for pet care visits in your home and dog walking. I am very respectful of others' homes and property. I'm happy to do an introductory visit to meet you and your pets.

About: If you're looking for a dog-lover and loyal caretaker, I'm here for you and your pet! I'm happy to provide a loving space for your pet while you travel, or walks when needed. I work from home mostly--I am in the office two days a week (every Tuesday and Wednesday.) All other days I am flexible with my schedule. Pets are welcome on my furniture--while they are here, they are free to make themselves comfortable! Playtime, walks and car rides (if they like them) are encouraged.

We went on a 10 day trip to Europe. One of our dogs is a pit/rottie mix so we were especially worried about a sitter entering the house while we were away. Helene was amazing. She got along with the dogs wonderfully. We received photos of our babies playing every day. It was such a relief. We weren't worried at all with our dogs in Helene's care. Helene helped make our vacation worry-free.
