About: I’ve been around pets my entire life, especially cats, so I naturally understand their needs and unique personalities. Even though I’ve never owned a dog of my own, I’ve cared for many dogs through friends and family — from puppies who need full attention to older dogs who need extra patience and care. I also have experience giving pets oral medication, so I’m comfortable following special routines. My goal is to always give each pet the same love, comfort, and attention I’d want for my own! I am currently a full-time student at Howard University so I have class everyday. With any free time I have on my hands not studying or in class, I’d love to help! Im happy to take your pets on walks, give them fresh food and water, and spend quality time with them so they feel cared for while you're away. Im gentle and attentive, making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Building trust is very important to me, and treat one like my own! :)
“Meredith is punctual, reliable, and goes above and beyond every time she watches our cat, even trying to coax our grumpy girl out of her shell. I definitely recommend her!”
“Anna was fantastic! She took wonderful care of Tucker while we were away. Lots of photos and good updates throughout the week. Would absolutely book again!”

“Carol was amazing with my Peanut!! She made her comfortable and engaged with her (although Peanut can be a bit feisty) I’m very particular about who watches her and will absolutely book with Carol next time!”

“Alina was fantastic with our old lady cat. Very responsive to her needs and sent several pictures everyday. Additionally, our cat was very settled when we came home, which was comforting. We will definitely book with Alina again!”

“We cannot thank Abby enough for such wonderful, sweet, and professional care she gives to our orange boys. From the bottom of our hearts, we really appreciate you and encourage everyone to book this wonderful rover! Thank you for everything Abby! <3”

About: My own golden retriever lived to nearly 15, and caring for her through every stage of life is what gave me a real understanding of what dogs need and what their owners worry about. I don’t take that lightly when I’m caring for someone else’s dog and I treat each one as if they were my own! I’ve worked with dogs of all ages and personalities, from brand-new puppies to seniors, and from the shyest wallflowers to the most enthusiastic greeters. I’m comfortable with leash training for puppies and administering supplements and medications for older dogs with established routines. Midday walks are one of my favorite parts of the day, and I’m also available for drop-in visits when that’s all your pup needs. Either way, you can count on your dog getting genuine, attentive care while you’re away. As a remote worker, I have a flexible day and would love to break it up with outdoor activities with your dog! Aside from times when I have meetings, I am available to go and let out your pet or go for an outdoor activity. I always defer to the owners instructions for a visit and follow them to a tee. Whether your dog just needs a quick outing and play time inside or a longer walk in a certain route, I am able to provide whatever your dog needs to have a good visit!
“Emily has great energy, learned the ropes easily, and was a pleasure to communicate with. It was clear from the initial meeting and the photos she sent that my two cats enjoyed their time with her. A sitter who can administer fluids is a big plus. Highly recommend!”

“Yulia did an amazing job taking care of my cat, Carmen! She was very patient with Carmen and her complex needs, and always provided detailed updates. Her photos were also great! I would highly recommend her services 😊”

“Caris was AMAZING! From being super communicative about when she would show up for the check in, to great photos. Most importantly, our flight got delayed, and she so graciously checked in our cats for an extra day even though we didn’t officially book it. It was a huge stress reliever and we would absolutely book her again!”

“Jess was a fantastic sitter! Very communicative and flexible when it came to coordinating the key/fob pickup, and the girls got lots of TLC during her drop-in visits. I will definitely rebook with her next time I go out of town!”

“Alaina was great with my 4 kitties, she played with them and made them comfortable while I was gone for a weekend. Kept them active and with full belly’s! 10/10 would book again :)”

About: I’ve been dog sitting for over eight years, caring for all kinds of breeds—many from foster or rescue homes. I’m patient, reliable, and love making pets feel safe and happy. I also have about two years of cat sitting experience, and I always treat every pet like my own. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. Before my dog of 16 years passed away, caring for her—walks, treats, snuggles, and later medication and extra attention—was a meaningful part of every day. Because of that, I’ve kept pet care as a regular part of my lifestyle. I’m available after 5 p.m. on weekdays and free on weekends, which makes it easy for me to dedicate time to walking, playing with, and caring for pets. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow any specific instructions closely—feeding schedules, walks, medications, and playtime—to ensure pets feel secure in their familiar space. I always take time to build trust, offer attention, and keep things tidy, so owners can come home to happy, relaxed pets and a well-cared-for home.
“Michael was great—easy to communicate with, thorough during each visit, and provided excellent daily updates. He was wonderful with my cat and clearly an animal person. I’d definitely book with him again.”

“Charlie was so awesome taking care of my two cats. Was available for the entire time I needed and incredibly responsive and accountable. I would absolutely recommend!”

“Hig was so great with our kittens!!! She did drop in visits for our 4 month old energetic kittens who need a lot of attention, and she was wonderful with them! She played with them and held them a lot (which they love!), and she spent even more time with them than what we booked! 😊 The kittens looked like they loved her! We were worried to leave our young kittens for the weekend but Hig was so sweet and caring for them. Will definitely book her again!”

“Sara was so nice and made sure that our baby was taken care of while we were on vacation. She gave us detailed updates and sent us pics and videos. Thank you Sara for giving us peace of mind and being so great to Ivy!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kalorama
Landy has been walking our dogs every day for the last weeks and we are so happy. One dog recently had ACL surgery and requires some support on her walk and Landy does a great job managing that situation and providing them with daily love. She sends pictures and is really easy to work with. Best of all, the pups clearly love her.

Phil was probably the best rover I have ever had! He was very communicative and his updates were thorough and fun to read! He also did a great job keeping things tidy which I appreciated. My cat gets anxious when I’m away and she doesn’t get enough attention but I could tell she had been well cared for when I returned. Would be happy to have Phil care for my cat again!

Four cats and they all look healthy and happy. Emma made a point to bond with all of them. She was punctual and did everything asked of her…even getting medication dispensed. We were nervous to leave, but from the first day we were able to enjoy our vacation with Emma in charge of our cats.

Megan was very responsive, followed all of my directions and was very easy to work with. She made sure I had photos of my cat who hides under my bed and also played with my other cat who is more open ti people. She put out wet food that my cats ate all of every time and made sure their litter was clean and water/food filled.

Another great experience with Shelby watching my cats! She takes great care of them, plays with them, pets them, and keeps me updated with good communication. You can tell she genuinely cares about interacting with the cats which is such a big piece of feeling good about leaving them in a sitters care.
