“Maria took wonderful care of my cats. She was very flexible with her availability as I was waiting for a family member to be released from the hospital. I am thankful for her help.”
“Sara was excellent with my cats while I was away. She listened carefully to my instructions and gave me piece of mind that my cats were being well taken care of through constant communication and detailed updates. I have an emotional cat who takes it very hard when I'm out of town, and Sara made the extra effort to ensure that my cat received extra care and attention. I would definitely book again with Sara!”
“Nina is incredibly flexible and very reliable. We can tell she really knows and truly loves cats despite their occasional spicy behaviors 😂. Would highly recommend Nina and will use her again in the future!”
“Aislyn is a wonderful pet sitter--friendly, communicative, and gentle with our pets. She responds to questions in a timely manner and provides lots of updates (and pics) during her visits. :)”
“Christina was great as always! Pictures and updates from each visit provide peace of mind while we're away. I'd recommend Christina to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Ksenia is absolutely one of the best sitters! Our cat was a bit shy and she was very patient and caring with him. This was the longest time we were away on a trip and she really put our mind at ease by leaving detailed notes of the visits and loads of pics everyday. The communication was easy. She really went above and beyond in caring for our cat and also the house, as we had a few unexpected things come up and she was very helpful. I would highly recommend Ksenia!”
“Elani did a fabulous job taking care of my elderly cat over the holiday. She cleaned up after an accident and upset stomach, common in old cats. She ensured I returned to a taken care of cat and home. Very thoughful and terrific person.”
“It was our first time using Rover and using a sitter/walker for our puppy and it was great! I had a busy 2 days and I was unable to be home all day so Jon came twice each day and walked, fed, and played with my pup for an hour each visit. He maximized the time he had and followed any rules I had (due to my pup being so young he can’t explore as much just yet ). I had some anxiety about leaving my puppy for the first time since he’s only 14 weeks old but Jon made it easy. Highly recommend!!”
“Teodora was great with my two cats--she went above and beyond in playing with them and caring for them and sent a bunch of great photos so that I could almost feel like I was home!”
“Amanda was fantastic! She dropped in to watch my cats while I was away for the weekend. She fed them and cleaned the litter box. She even left them a toy! Outstanding!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since the day I was born! Once I didn’t have a dog of my own anymore I thought why not extend care to dogs of the city. I am a teacher and have a completely free schedule for the summer. I take quite substantial walks everyday to keep active and love to take dogs with me. I am very used to pet care even for the more stubborn of the bunch. I am very comfortable feeding, walking, crating or giving your pet medicine.
“Jessi did an amazing job watching our cat for an extended trip. She checked in often and left the house clean and cared for. She even cleaned up a very big mess our cat left and gave us constant updates. I felt very comfortable leaving our cat with Jessi and won’t hesitate to use her again in the future.”
“Loreen is one of the best sitter I have ever had for Clive. Clive is a 17 years old diabetic cat and Loreen took care of him perfectly and Clive was happy and stay healthy without stress. I will definitely want to have Loreen look after Clive when I need her best help!”
About: I've trained a lot of puppies, nurtured and fed abandoned kittens and looked after all my dogs as they entered their senior years. I love to hike and play with dogs of all ages and enjoy the company of cats. I have time on my hands now and really want to spend more time with more animals. I know all the dog parks in the area including Westgrovein Alexandria (I am a donor), the Mile at Tysons, Fort Ethan Allen in Arlington, and Cabin John in Maryland. I have a lot of availability in general and with notice can accommodate most days and times including weekends. I have a 4 year old fox terrier who loves other dogs and people, so my regular dog walking includes time for him too. Our dog is always with us, and yours will be too! We no longer use a crate now that he is grown up, but have one large crate for dogs who need private space and peace. We allow off leash play wherever possible and actively seek out dog parks and trails where dogs can run and play to their heart's content.
About: I’ve been thinking care of the dogs since I was young. I am a Nanny live-in and dogs babysit in the same time. They sleep with me in the bed when their owner is gone. I love walking them outside. I trained them to listen to me in Thai and English. I have experience in walking the dog outside. I have 2 clients who trust me to walk there dog now. I’m normally free 9 AM - 12:20 PM on the weekdays. After 7 PM on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday And Friday. I sometimes free all day on Saturday. And I am free after 1 pm every Sunday. I would love to take care of the dogs in your house or walking them around your neighborhood. Because I don’t have my own place to take care of other dogs here.
“One of our normally low maintenance cats decided to throw up a few times, eventually leading to a few hairballs. Elise was so kind and caring to both clean up the multiple messes and keep me well informed on the kitty’s behavior surrounding this. Both cats are very comfortable with her, and she is an excellent caregiver.”

They have always been dog owners, and they adore their their two little fox terriers. Catherine is also a professional accountant who has kept our church's financial books for about 15 years as well. I say this to endorse her strong understanding of fiduciary duty and responsibility for the interests of others. She will be a loving and caring walker, feeder, and caregiver.”

Suphaphattra S.
“Suphaphattra, or Evie as she would like to be called, has taken care of my two dogs many times. She is the only person I trust to watch them if I'm not around. They love her like a second "mom"! She goes out of her way to make them feel loved and cared for. She plays games with them, thinks carefully about their safety and generally puts their comfort and happiness first. Evie is very responsible and trustworthy and I've trusted her to take care of my house as well as the dogs while I'm away and the house actually looks better then it did when I left, when I get home! I could not ask for a kinder, more considerate dog sitter who looks after my pups like they were her own!”
