“We could not have asked for anyone better than Makiah to watch our dog while out of the country for over a week. She was amazing! She kept us updated daily on how he was doing and was so respectful of our home environment. She made us feel so comfortable. We came back home to a happy dog and a clean and tidy home. We will definitely be booking with her for the future!”

“Michael did an amazing job taking care of our two dogs while we were in DC for the day. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. Peanut and Sweet Pea were happy and relaxed when we got home - we definitely recommend Michaela!”

“Very responsive, asks good questions and is flexible and very loving to my senior babies. My normally kiddish pup immediately engaged with her and was at ease. Thank you so much for caring for my babes!”

“Enih was absolutely FANTASTIC during her stay in my home where she cared for my dog for 9 days — I honestly can not recommend her enough, and will always be booking with her from here on out! Prior to finding her, I had a horrible, traumatizing experience with the last person I used on Rover. I was so nervous to use Rover again, and left Enih a million instructions. She was so patient and so kind, and was good about doing everything I had asked of her every single day! She tracked her walks, took Alto to the park, and gave me thorough updates. He is a GIANT dog, and can be quite a handful—but she handled everything like a pro. She was very respectful of my stuff and left my home exactly how it was when I left! If you’re looking for a trustworthy girl who can handle any dog, and who treats them with tons of care and love, then Enih is your girl. Thanks again for everything, Enih!”

About: Hi! I have been a pet parent for most of my life. I enjoy helping others in my community feel safe and less stressed with leaving their loved ones with someone! I can adjust to your needs and make things easy as possible. I usually respond very quickly and I am open to short notices as well! I am currently building an app and finishing up my Masters degree. I am looking for something to earn income while I finish strong on these projects. I have 3 rooms, I have doggy parks, normal parks, and various pet stores near me and vets for emergencies. I have an experienced pet owner besides myself available as well. I clean every two days in general and I clean my cats litter 1-2 times a day depending as well.

“Catarina is a pet's dream sitter! She was kind, caring, attentive and very fun. I made the house and 2 dogs sit extra challenging by providing very detailed instructions on the daily routine for both the dogs and the house. Catarina rose to the challenge and I had no doubt that she would do everything necessary so that the dogs hardly noticed that I was away. Catarina's experience, love of pets, and positive attitude comforted me to know that my dogs (and home) were safe and happy.”

“Aaron was a pleasure to have in our home to watch our two kitties. He followed all our instructions and took amazing care of our girls. He sent plenty of updates as instructed and when we returned, our home was left the same as how we left it and he kept it clean. He made sure our girls were happy and safe. We will definitely be booking him in the future. We have no complaints. He treated our home and cats with respect. If you’re looking for a trustworthy pet sitter please consider Aaron. My fiancé and I are so grateful we found him . Thank you so much again Aaron. He made our trip care free knowing our kitties were in great hands. We love you Aaron!!”

“Trisha watched my dog Ozzy over a weekend and made my first time using Rover a breeze! I knew he was in good hands after meeting Trisha and seeing how happy he was in the pictures and videos she sent. He seemed so well taken care of and exercised when I came back. I will definitely book Trisha to hang out with Ozzy again :)”

“Rubi and Martha did an amazing job taking care of my little pack! I have three little girls that are very attached to me and my husband, but Rubi and Martha went above and beyond to provide good care for them. We had a meet and greet with them, and a visit to my house right before the scheduled dates. They were very accommodating and understanding. During the stay they kept in touch and sending videos and pictures throughout the day. We had an amazing experience and country recommend them enough. Thank you!!”

“I booked a 10 house-sitting stay with Mika and was overjoyed to see videos of my retriever mix so very happy and comfortable. I could tell my Mila loved the attention she got. My dog is 12yr old this coming July and I wanted someone with experience. Mika's vet assistant background was perfect as well as her history with rescues and special needs pets. My anxiety for such a long stay was quickly eased after the first photos and texts. Mika's upbeat attitude is refreshing. She's totally focused on Mila"s every need. I gladly recommend her. I will certainly book again. Deb”
“Rosie did a fantastic job watching our dog, Janie, for a couple of hours! She was punctual, friendly, and made us feel confident that Janie was in great hands. When we got home, Janie was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We really appreciated Rosie’s attentiveness and the peace of mind she gave us while we were away. We’d absolutely book with Rosie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!”

“Xavier was AMAZING. Did a meet and greet before the weekend so the dogs could meet him. Between then and the actual weekend, our dogs condition got worse so there was more than we initially talked about to have to do. He jumped right on it. No complaints. Sent tons of pics and updates. My pups were clearly happy and being well taken care of! Highly recommend booking with him!”


About: Hi, I’m Sanyika! I offer thoughtful overnight and extended-stay care for pet parents who want their animals to remain comfortable in their own home and maintain the routines they already know. I’m a longtime homeowner, experienced house sitter and devoted cat parent to Cali and Mari. I have cared for cats and well-mannered dogs in homes ranging from small studios to large estates, with house-sitting experience throughout the United States and abroad. I work remotely as a wellness and relationship coach, which makes me especially well suited for pets who enjoy companionship and having someone present throughout the day. While I do have scheduled calls and occasional time away from the home, I am not rushing between multiple households or spending the entire day on a walking route. My approach is warm, calm and consistent. I respect each animal’s personality, follow the household routine closely and allow pets to warm up to me at their own pace. I also understand that caring for someone’s pets means caring for their home. I keep spaces tidy, bring in mail and packages, manage trash and recycling, water plants when requested and communicate clearly throughout the stay. For additional peace of mind, I hold an active federal Secret security clearance and understand the importance of discretion, reliability and respecting someone’s private space. My best matches are independent cats and small-to-medium, leash-trained dogs with established routines. I especially enjoy longer assignments that allow me to settle into a neighborhood, work, walk to coffee or yoga, explore a little and come home to keep someone’s pets company. Namaste Home while you’re away. 🐾🏡 I work remotely and can usually spend a substantial portion of the day in the home. My work includes scheduled video calls, so reliable Wi-Fi and a reasonably quiet place to work are important. I build feeding, walks, playtime and companionship around the pet’s established routine. I may occasionally leave for errands, yoga, meals or local activities, so I am best matched with pets who can comfortably be left alone for four to eight hours when necessary. Before accepting a booking, I confirm the exact schedule, how long each pet may be left alone and whether there are any dates when my work commitments could affect the routine. Every new household begins with a virtual Meet & Greet. I want to understand your pets’ personalities, daily routines, walking equipment, feeding instructions, sleeping arrangements and any household details that will help the stay run smoothly. Before you leave, when schedules allow, we will meet in person for a brief conversation where I ask that we confirm: • Feeding and walking routines • Veterinary and emergency contacts • Medications or health concerns • Behavioral triggers and escape risks • Alarm, key and entry instructions • Wi-Fi and workspace information • Household and sleeping expectations • Communication and photo-update preferences During the stay, I provide dependable updates and photographs so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are safe and comfortable. I promptly communicate anything unusual rather than waiting for a small concern to become a larger one. I do not take pets anywhere that has not been approved or change an established routine without permission. I treat your home as a private space and leave it tidy, secure and ready to welcome you back.
About: I’ve worked many professional jobs that have allowed me the opportunity to work with cats and dogs from all ranges of breeds and ages. I have my own dog as well as 5 household cats! I love the joy pets bring into our lives and I enjoy caring for them. I’m flexible with most schedules and can incorporate them into my schedule. As long as I know of any changes ahead of time, I will always try my best to meet your needs. I respect others’ homes with the upmost regard and strictly follow instructions given i.e., “walk dog, ensure they have clean water, feed kibble” etc. Any specifics can be discussed and mutually agreed upon.
“Chandler was an amazing house sitter!! She was communicative and punctual, and was so good with our large dog. Chandler took our dog on extra long walks to help her with her weight loss, and went the extra mile in the home to let our cuddly dog snuggle in bed with her during the scary NYE fireworks. She sent lots of pictures and updates while we were away. Also our house was so clean when we got home and I don’t think our dog even minded that we were gone. I’d recommend Chandler to anyone!”

About: I have sharpened my abilities in dog care and customer service, ensuring that the pets under my supervision receive the highest level of care and attention. My commitment to safety rules and adaptability allows me to handle various situations with ease, whether walking multiple dogs or catering to the unique needs of each pet. I possess a strong set of skills including cleaning, dog care, customer service, communication, time management, and problem solving. My strengths such as adaptability, responsibility, attention to detail, patience, reliability, and work ethic further enhance my ability to excel in this role. I have hands on experience working in professional dog daycare environments, including at Dogtopia and The Board Hound. In these roles, I cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments in a structured group setting. My responsibilities included supervising playgroups, ensuring safety and positive behavior, feeding and basic care routines, and maintaining a clean, controlled environment. This experience helped me develop strong skills in dog behavior management, calm handling in high energy situations, and building trust with both pets and their owners. Currently Monday-Friday my availability is open. Have time in the morning, lots of time in the afternoon, I can also do overnight if its needed. I like to work with my clients to get an understanding of their pet's daily routine, including feeding times, exercise needs, medications, and special requirements.

Sanai did a great job taking care of my pup. She was great with my dog and very respectful of my home. She communicated well with me while I was away. I recommend her sitting services. I will also be working with her to walk my pup when I return to in person work.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Joint Base Andrews walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Joint Base Andrews maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Joint Base Andrews choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
