“Katherine has been walking Camden every weekday for the past few months and she is THE BEST. She is a great communicator and has been very consistent. Camden loves her so much and looks forward to seeing her every day!”
“Tyler is a godsend! He walked Ollie last minute in the worst weather. He was very communicative and extremely polite. Thank you so much Tyler for helping out with Ollie!”
“Monica is super responsive and great communicator. She was able to meet up with us beforehand for Teddy to meet her since he's is incredible shy. Teddy had a good walk with her! Thanks again!”
“Cindy went above and beyond and helped us out very last minute. She is responsive and caring. I’d recommend her to anyone else looking for a dog walker!!”
“Aurora was great walking our dog. She had great communication, sent updates, and made it very stress free for us! I would definitely recommend her.”
“Lexi was great! This was our first Rover experience and Lexi took the time to come do a meet and greet prior to our first walk, which was great so she could meet our dog and chat through his quirks. :) She was very communicative, timely and left great notes and pics. Looking forward to booking with Lexi again soon!”
“Michael walked our dog once per day for more than a week. He was punctual and the walking map showed he gave our dog good exercise. I would rebook with him without a moment’s thought.”
“Anne has been amazing! Patient and flexible with my anxious, nervous, sensitive, and opinionated dog, Pumpkin. She's been key in helping to desensitize him to our surrounding area while we work through environmental anxiety issues. Anne has also been incredibly communicative, and we're so lucky to have found her 💖”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 10 years old - whether it be my own, my neighbors, or my roommates and friends. My late grandma LOVED animals, growing up we had ducks and rabbits and birds (oh my!) and she definitely made sure that type of love lived on through me. I love providing warm and welcoming environments for all, leading me to be extremely organized and detail oriented. I’m currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your furry friends! I’m available every day from 10 AM to 6 PM for walks and drop-ins, and can watch during the day my own home weekdays from 9 AM to 6 PM. I have an extremely clean, organized, warm and puppy-proofed house with Fillmore Park Trail right in my backyard, often taking my own dog for long walks on it! Long Branch Elementary School is also behind me, where I often take dogs to play on the fields there if they have anxiety in park spaces (bad experiences with other dogs). I frequently go to Shirlington dog park otherwise. If I am caring for your pet in your own home, I will tidy up the space as well if needed (I am a firm believer in respecting other peoples spaces and treating them better than my own).
“Rita was great with my pup and communication was a breeze. I appreciated the thorough details about their walk. I’d happily book with Rita again!”
“Lauren did a great job caring for River today. She not only ensured she was comfortable by removing her harness after the walk but she also refilled River’s water and provided a treat. Bravo!”
“Sam is completely reliable. He wrote informative and lengthy descriptions of each walk. He also clearly cared a lot about our dog’s happiness. We have used Sam before and would use him again.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life! I grew up with next to a horse farm in Pennsylvania and I was the go to child and pet sitter for my family and friend's all throughout high school. Caring for others comes second nature to me. I’m comfortable following instructions, administering varied levels of care (including administering medicine), and maintaining consistent routines. I currently live in Arlington VA with my boyfriend, our two cats Sid and Riku, and our pet snake, Sashimi! I’m currently offering competitive rates while I continue to build my Rover profile and long-term client relationships. I’m reliable, punctual, and happy to accommodate regular walks, drop-ins, or extended care depending on your needs. Happy to set up a meet and greet so you feel completely comfortable before booking I know how hard it is to leave your pet and I take my role as your pet sitter very seriously. I promise to always prioritize safety, have clear communication, and carefully follow all instructions. I will keep your home clean and secure, and make sure your pet feels loved and well cared for at all times 💛 I’m always happy to do a meet-and-greet so you and your pet feel completely comfortable before booking. I want every pet parent to feel confident that their furry family member is in good hands!
Maywood dog parents share their Rover experiences
Anne did a great job communicating her availability and being timely on our scheduled walks. She also followed our requests to walk certain routes and handled Biscuit's route preferences and hesitations during the walk well. I really appreciate her patience and professionalism to keeping us in the loop on GPS tracking and his status during the walk. Thanks Anne!
Tali had a great walk with Maggie! I appreciated that she came over to meet Tali earlier in the week before the walk and Tali loved her instantly. She was flexible with some time changes and kept me updated after the walk sharing lots of pictures. Will absolutely continue to have Maggie walk my pup!
