“Miguel and Lisa were great! I recently moved to the area and this was my first time with them. Definitely recommend and would return for future stays.”

“Rodrigo was a lifesaver on multiple occasions in just a few short days - accepting a frantic last minute booking I had when some plans fell through and being very patient and helpful dealing with unexpected travel delays on my return. Plus I could tell Watson had a great time and got along super well with the lovely Luna. I have actually already booked again as I knew Watson is in good hands. Thanks Rodrigo!!”

She was an incredibly responsive and easy to coordinate with. I would highly recommended her as a sitter for any senior pups!”

“Morgan was great! Very prompt and responsive, asked thoughtful questions, and was very careful to get our girl settled in and safely introduced to Winnie. She agreed to pick up and drop off our dog and that went super smoothly; she sent lots of pictures and our pup had a great time hanging out with her & Winnie and was clearly comfortable and happy.”

“Nico was a great sitter! He kept me updated throughout my dogs stay and I could tell from pictures he was having a great time! He was extremely friendly and professional, responded promptly to any messages, and treated my dog as one of his own. Would gladly rebook with Nico again in the future!”

Kalorama dog parents share their Rover experiences
Alyssa was amazing!! She was very responsive, talked through all the details with me beforehand on a call, worked around my schedule, and was prompt and reliable. She made Teddy feel right at home, let me hang with him until he was settled, and sent me pictures while I was away. She took him on long walks and gave him cuddles, and her service was both professional and tailored that made me feel comfortable trusting her with my fur pup. I’d definitely book with her again!

Ken took excellent care of my pup for a week. He followed all care instructions, sent daily updates, and was very responsive. The gated backyard was a big plus. Fritz is reactive with other dogs, but Ken handled walks confidently without any issues. I’ll definitely be using him again.

Caroline was an amazing host to my dog, Dillon! She was super easy to communicate with, catered well to my dog’s specific needs and was genuinely excited to have him. She also provided updates along the way so I knew Dillon was doing well. Highly recommend Caroline!

We had an amazing experience with our pet sitter! She took such great care of Tini and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We especially appreciated the regular updates and adorable pictures she sent—it really helped us stay connected. Tini looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for the entire time. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!

Gus had the best time with Mini and Robert! He was totally spoiled and I’m sure thinks there couch was much better than ours (thanks to a heated blanket)! Mini and Robert were very communicative and kept us updated with just the right amount of photos. Couldn’t recommend them enough, and I know Gus will be happy to stay with them again!
