“Maria was amazing with my anxious dog! My pup has never been to daycare or boarding before and Maria was very patient and communicative with me and my pup—I received photos and updates throughout the whole day. She clearly knows dogs well and is able to expertly navigate dogs with all different needs. I will definitely book with Maria again!”
“Rene and Steph took such great care of my dog. They have two dogs who are friendly and were good companions for my pup. I will continue to rebook and highly recommend Rene and Step!”
“Natalia was a wonderful daycare mom for our pup. She made my pup feel safe and took him on great walks! She was also very accommodating of my schedule. I highly recommend her. We will definitely return to her in the future.”

“My Hazel had a great couple of days with Jamie. She totally sacked out after playing with Kohl in the spacious fenced in yard! Jamie promptly replied to messages and shared pictures during Hazel’s stays. Her home is easily accessed from the Beltway, which helped my commute. Jamie is very pleasant, and obviously has much experience with dogs. I highly recommend her services, and hope Hazel can become a repeat visitor!”
“Sardegna had a great experience with Will! We were nervous because she is still a puppy and we had not used rover before. We reached out to Will for a meet and greet and he was kind to accommodate us meeting before we booked daycare. Our pup took to him immediately. We took her for daycare the next day and she was happy to see him again! Will sent updates through the day and was a great host! I have already booked her next daycare sessions ☺️”
About: I am a military spouse, and looking to help out my neighbors while my kids are in school. I have had my own dog for the past 20 years and have been around them all my life.

I am available to check in on your dog, walk them, and I have a van if they need transportation.
“I normally don’t leave reviews, but it’s my sincere pleasure to sing Anna’s praises. I had a recurring daycare booking for my Irish Setter two days a week, and Anna was wonderful. Anna was reliable, kind, and clearly loves dogs. My dog was always excited to see her and came home happy and well cared for. It gave me real peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I’m so grateful we found her and would happily recommend Anna to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy dog sitter. Five Stars all around!!”

Ana was absolutely excellent with my dog during daycare! Ana kept me updated with plenty of photos and videos, which I really appreciated—it was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable my dog was. I could tell my dog had such a fun time with her. My dog came home happy and well cared for. I would definitely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
Paul has been wonderful with our young pup. After her first week with him, she’s walking better on a leash and we love that she can get a lot of her energy out with him and her classmates throughout the day so she’s more settled in the evenings with us. He sends frequent updates and is so easy to communicate with. Paul even took the initiative to purchase a slow feeder bowl just for her to use while she’s in daycare so we don’t have to keep sending her with her own from home! We really appreciate Paul’s care and will likely be using his services long term.
Chuy seemed to have a wonderful time at his evening with Oyindamola! When I picked him up he looked so happy and said goodbye to her at least 3 times. 😊 She was very kind and helped him feel comfortable when he was a little nervous at first. I highly recommend!
Diana is a kind soul and an amazing host for my puppy. She’s been very helpful with potty training and always makes sure everything feels safe and comfortable. Her adorable dog, Charlie, is super chill and friendly, which makes the environment even better. Diana is flexible, responsive, and you can feel her genuine passion for caring for animals. We’re already asking her to set up regular visits because we trust her completely. I couldn’t recommend her more!
I have a Malinois Mix, so he is very high every not every Rover sitter has the skills to take good care of him. So, it really means a lot to me when someone seems to genuinely enjoy taking care of him, and really makes an effort to be active with him. Moises always goes above and beyond to care for my dog. He takes such good care of Sisko, and I can tell Sisko had a lot of fun with Moises + loves him. I couldn't recommend Moises more, and thanks so much!
Noor was excellent! She accommodated us on super short notice when we were scrambling to find a sitter for our dog. Meeko (aforementioned dog) enjoyed herself very much and we received plenty of updates with pictures. So happy that we made this connection! Would absolutely work with Noor again.
