Lena was so communicative throughout the whole process of booking and walking our little guy. This was a last minute request and Lena came through! Really felt like Gansito was in good hands. Would definitely book again and recommend.

We have had several dog walkers on Rover and Lena is simply the best! Totally reliable, very communicative and flexible, always right on time, and walks were longer than required. Hazel was delighted/ecstatic to see her when she came inside to get her one day. We are looking forward to her return next summer!

Lena was such a wonderful sitter for Theo while we were away for a week. He is a very people-oriented dog and loves attention from his humans. Lena gave him so much love, pets, cuddles, and attention…as well as plenty of walks in Rock Creek Park! She sent daily updates and sweet photos of Theo having a blast. When we picked up Theo, she let me know about some bumps she had noticed on his belly and legs. Also, her home was set up well for dog sitting, with a nice fenced in backyard. She is a thoughtful and warm hearted dog sitter and we’ll happily have her sit Theo the next time we’re away.

Wonderful with our pup, sent lot of photos for updates. Clear that pup was excited to spend time with her on repeat visits. Made sure to take walks with her and was very flexible with us for pick up and scheduling.

Such a thoughtful, kind, responsive person who lives in a beautiful home with a backyard that is perfect for dogs! Lena Addie was a delight to work with from start to finish. Sent great updates and pictures. Our dog was sad to leave her and the buddy dogs! 10/10 would recommend to all friends

Pets

A typical day

I love to play with dogs, take them on walks and mini sprints, and entertain them with cuddles, tug of war, different toys, etc. I’m also great with mellow dogs and cats who love lying around—they’ll be relaxed and pampered. I also have experiencing caring for turtles and would love to care for any other pets!

Their medical needs, age, and personality type (shy, in-between, outgoing/cuddly), so I can know how to best approach them. Additionally, their bathroom, walking and eating schedule. I typically discuss all of this further during meet and greets.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
