“Rachel & Jens were fantastic. We reach out very last minute and they were super accommodating. We cannot recommend them enough. Very response and love getting the pup updates. Rest assure your furry friend will be taking care of when under their watch.”

“Allison made my first experience with Rover such an easier experience. Very friendly, accommodating, and my dog loved her. Will definitely use her again in the future!”

“Blake and her partner were fantastic while caring for our pups. She was incredibly communicative and provided detailed updates through the visit cards, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. She treated our doggos with so much love and attention and paid close attention to every detail of their care. Amazing experience and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

“I have now used Emily two times to watch my cats while away. Emily is great at updating us and caring for our cats like they are her own. She goes above and beyond to report on their behaviors and anything else during her services. We will continue to use her for future travel plans.”

“Kennedy was excellent with my adult cat—who can be a bit picky. My cat warmed up to her right away. Kennedy has great attention to detail and will make your pet as comfortable as possible while you’re away.”

“DeAnna did an amazing job caring for our pets. She was really thoughtful in getting Phoebe to warm up to her, did a great job playing with both, and sent us detailed updates. Totally awesome!”

“Thanks Andy, for checking in on the pups today while no one was home. They were very happy and content whi got home! And thank you for the photos and report. 🐾”

“Awesome sitter. My dog and cat loved Brenda. I appreciate the detailed notes and photos during drop-ins. Easily the best sitter I've had the pleasure of booking with in the Capitol Hill area, and I hope to book her again in the future.”

“Carly was amazing! Very flexible as I had to schedule the visits last minute. Excellent communication and she took lots of photos of my two boys! My one cat is very skittish and tends to hide around new people but he came out for her and let her give him pets! They clearly liked and trusted her. Very grateful to know they were taken such good care of while I was away. Will definitely use her again in the future!”

“Noah was amazing with our two pups while we were away on vacation. He gave us confidence in his care from the moment we introduced him to the dogs. Will be using him for all of our trips!”

“Savannah took such great care of my three kitties!! She was punctual, communicative, and on top of all my cats’ needs. Will absolutely book her again and I’d recommend her to anyone with multiple cats!”

About: I grew up with two big labs and now have two extremely pampered cats. I’m big enough to walk large dogs safely and love playing with animals! I’m currently working part time, so I’m available mornings and evenings from Sunday to Thursday. My own cats are fed twice a day with their litter boxes cleaned daily. I offer pet care in the owner's home. I can feed, walk, and play with your pets twice daily. I also clean litter boxes and pet messes when they’re playful happen. I send text updates with every visit with photos.
“Maura did a great job of taking great care of our 3 year old cat, and 4 month old kitten. We were a little nervous about having to leave our young kitten at home since it was his first time alone. She did a great job of playing with him and making him feel safe. Cowboy, our older cat, definitely loves his space and Maura was able to immediately tell and gave him the space that he needed to feel safe. The instructions were followed really well. The only feedback we have is to add a description of how the visit was after each visit. Apart from that, Maura did a fantastic job of taking care of our boys. Highly recommend!”

“Joy & Dani are simply lovely people...It's so obvious they love our dogs as much as we do. And it's a relief to be able to leave our fur babies in their care without worry. Their home is fully pet-proofed, warm and welcoming. I'm so happy we found them!”

About: I've been a dog lover all my life and a dog owner for most of it. Most of my experience is with small dogs, but I haven't met a dog yet that I didn't love. I've read many books about dog behavior and training so I'm confident in my ability to cope with most situations. I've had a puppy, a geriatric dog, and everything in between, so I've experienced the entire continuum of dog aging and done everything from potty training to giving oral medicine. My schedule is flexible and I am home more than not so I'm almost always around to go for a walk or keep an eye on your pup. To misquote Benjamin Franklin "[dogs] are proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy".

Julia was a great help dropping in to watch my new, younger cat! I had not booked a pet sitter for her before as I just recently welcomed her to my home, but Julia did an amazing job with her and I am beyond happy. She was very communicative and sent great updates/photos!

Incredible experience working with Blake. She was super communicative and took such amazing care of my pups. I can tell they were so happy and so loved during their care with Blake and her partner. Would recommend Blake for all your pet sitting needs! Thank you Blake!

Laura was great! She is very understanding of how to walk a large reactive dog like my rottweiler Billie Jean. Shes very attentive to my dogs quirks and followed any instructions I had. Billie Jean was super excited and happy after her walk. Thank you! I will definitely book again.

Noah was able to set up a five-day pet sitting appointment on short notice. He came to my home before I left in order to meet the cats and review what was needed for their care. He is personable, confident and capable. I recommend Noah as a reliable pet sitter choice.
Vincent took great care of Fudge and Stealthy Culprit for 2 weeks. He was responsive and kept in touch. I was worried that they were bored as they usually have access to outside when I'm home. He was understanding of this and tried to get them to play when he was there. Fudge also has had issues with stones in his bladder, vincent had experience of this with his cats so that was reassuring and he knew what to look out for.
