Pet care experience

I am happy to share my home with my 7 year old daughter and your dog! I work from home one block from the van ness metro and frequently walk in rock creek park which is next door or play fetch in a big field where dogs can run. I typically have 2 dogs at a time and only accept dogs that like Being around other dogs and kids. I live in a 1000 sq ft apartment and the building features a dog park and grassy areas for dogs to run, and hardwood floors throughout. Your dog(s) will be roaming free through out the home. I'll do everything possible to make you comfortable with having your dog(s) in my care.

Our pup got lots of walks and attention. Really appreciated him getting the outside time on such a nice day while we explored the city!

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.
