About: Pets are my life, I grew up with cats, dogs and even reptiles. I’ve been taking care of all types and sizes of pets my whole life they are my passion & love. I’m currently a stay-at-home pet mom so my schedule is widely available, I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your dogs and cats. I have years of hands-on experience caring for animals in various settings, and I have a helper for group dog walking free of charge.

About: I’ve grown up with animals in the house and on the farm my entire life, from small dachshunds to chow chows to large hunting labs. We’ve had very rascal puppies, young high energy dogs, and very senior dogs on medications and needing special attention. I’ve house sat all sizes of dogs, from terriers and corgis to golden retrievers, as well as cats, both friendly and standoff-ish. Growing up with animals in the house, I know firsthand that pets aren’t pets, they are family, you love them dearly, when they get sick you clean up after them, and they make the world go round. I love pets that are very involved with everyday life (see my photos) of pets “helping” with homework, regular walks and play time, and bedtime snuggles, as well as pets that are in their own world and coexistence works best. I work full-time outside the house, M-F, so I’m mainly looking for weekends and overnights. I’m able to check-in on my lunch breaks when needed, and happy to do so. I grew up in the country and our dogs roamed free, while most animals that I’ve house sat have fenced in yards, so regular walks and active play is necessary. I’m used to animals both being left to roam the house or be crated during the day. I’m a pretty active person and my animals are active parts of my life, so if your pet enjoys people and is able-bodied, we’ll probably be going on lots of walks, finding nearby parks, eating meals together, and snuggling up to watch a movie. No one is allowed to meet your animal unless there is prior approval, especially no other animals unless yours is friendly and willing. I (unfortunately) have experience with animals getting sick, jumping a fence and going for a run, and unfriendly dogs coming close. I recognize these are all unwanted, however very possible, and having experience navigating and handling these often stressful situations, is needed to keep your animal safe and comfortable. I take every precaution to mitigate these risks, and have learned from my own animals and their mischievery.

“Sara did a great job with a week of daily check ins for our two cats. She was timely and was not in a rush when they needed some extra attention. Will definitely use her again!”

“Katherine successfully completed three drop-in visits to feed our cats, provide them with fresh water and scoop their litterboxes. She was on time (which we really appreciate) and cleaned up the dirty cash dishes. We have already requested her for future visits :-)”

About: As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. I care for every dog as if they were my own, taking the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences so they feel comfortable and at home. I have experience with a large, active German Shepherd and am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels. While I do have a resident dog, every pet's comfort and safety comes first. My home allows dogs to be separated when needed, and I'm happy to provide individual walks, feeding routines, and personalized attention so every dog has a positive experience. What sets me apart is my communication and attention to detail. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your pet's stay, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they're safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and dependable home where your pet is treated like family. I have a hybrid work schedule, which means I work from home several days each week and have flexibility to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, and exercise throughout the day. I plan my schedule around the pets in my care and prioritize keeping them on their normal routine as much as possible. Whether it's morning walks, playtime, feeding, or evening cuddles, my goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience so your pet feels right at home. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and get their energy out. I also have a friendly resident German Shepherd who enjoys other dogs, so guest dogs should be comfortable around larger breeds. That said, your pet's safety and comfort always come first. My home is set up so dogs can be separated if needed, and I always supervise introductions and interactions. I'm happy to provide individual walks, feed according to your dog's normal schedule, administer oral medications if needed, and accommodate crate routines if that's what your dog is used to. I will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay so you can have peace of mind while you're away. We have a toddler in our home (who has grown up with our dog and is respectful), so guest dogs should be comfortable around young children. Safety is my top priority, and I carefully supervise all interactions between pets and family members.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life. I currently have 4 amazing dogs of my own, I foster and volunteer for a local rescue so I have worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments and needs. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch, long walks, play time, or calm companionship, I’m here to give your dog all the care, love and attention they deserve while you are away. I believe in treating every dog like my own-with patience, kindness and fun. I provide regular updates and photos, so you'll never have to wonder how your dog is doing. Whether it's a walk, a drop-in, or an overnight stay, I'll make sure your pup is safe, comfortable, and happy. Let's set up a meet & greet-l'd love to meet you and your furry best friend! I currently work full time so am available any day after 3 to bring your pup for a walk, feed them or bring them to my house to play with my dogs. I can make any night work for overnight care. I live in a dog-loving home with a secure, dog-friendly environment. My own dogs are well-socialized and friendly, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I am also available to come to your home to take care of your dog if preferred.

“Breann has done a great job dropping in to take care of my cat while I was away. Her visit summaries are well detailed and she is very observant of cat behaviors. I highly recommend her!”

About: I grew up with a dog and have enjoyed dog walking on and off for many years! I am flexible with requests. Please reach out! I have 10 years of experience in healthcare. I will be graduating from graduate school soon and will have plenty of free time before starting my new job. Please reach out and we can find a time to collaborate! I am very flexible. You let me know what you are hoping for and we can make it work. If you have a yard, we can play there, or go to parks for long walks. For cats, I can play games or just offer companionship. You are the boss!

About: I grew up with dogs, and miss them dearly in my life! Friends, neighbors and family have relied on me for years to take care of their pets: while away traveling, or in hardships. From closely monitoring my friend's cat after surgery when she couldn't call off work, to weeklong stays in family homes with rambunctious puppies, I've done it all. I've always had a passion for animals, including exotic pet care! I have personally kept a freshwater aquarium and understand that fish and reptile care is much more detailed and intensive than many may first assume. You can rest easy knowing your pets will be in good hands, and will be given the detailed care and attention they deserve. I'm currently in recovery from a chronic pain condition. This gives me incredible flexibility to take on care at any time, and give your pets the attention they deserve! Depending on my health, my availabily may fluctuate, but now that I'm finally on the upswing I'm ready to be active and my abilites will only increase in the coming months! I am currently not offering care through my own home, but I am happy to provide check ins on many varieties of pets! I adore reptiles and exotic pets, and will happily feed, administer care, and help wear them out by playing inside, in the yard, or walking the nearby area.

“Helen is great with my boisterous dogs and really thorough with communication! 5 stars all the way, and I will be booking again!”

“Ned came for a meet and greet so I could introduce LucyLulu and show him how I feed her, what commands we use and how to get her in and out of the house and kennel. LucyLulu liked Ned and he reported she was a good girl both visits. He lives very close and it is a good match.”

About: I live in Columbia Heights with my dog, Oso, my cat, Syd, an Angora bunny & five chickens! With such a full house, I’m comfortable caring for all kinds of pets, each with their own unique needs and personalities. I’ve always loved helping people and being able to do that by giving their furry family members the love, attention, and care they deserve is extra special to me. I use Rover myself when I travel, so I know how reassuring it is to have someone trustworthy looking after your pets while you’re away. I’m a real estate photographer, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. Whether your pet needs a quick check in, a long walk, or some extra love and attention, I’d be happy to help! Feel free to reach out with any questions, I’d love to meet you and your pets! 🐾 I work as a real estate photographer, which gives me a flexible and ever changing schedule. I often have gaps between shoots throughout the day, making it easy for me to fit in pet check ins, walks, and quality time with animals. The variety in my schedule allows me to be flexible and dependable while still giving pets the attention and care they need. While I don’t currently offer in home boarding because I have a variety of pets of my own, I absolutely love providing care in a pet’s home where they feel most comfortable and at ease. When caring for your pets, my goal is to treat them like they’re my own while respecting the routines, preferences, and instructions you’ve established for them. I’ll follow your lead on everything from feeding schedules and walks to playtime, cuddles, and any special care they may need. I genuinely love animals and find so much joy in getting to know their personalities, keeping them happy and comfortable, and making sure they feel loved while you’re away. Whether that means an energetic play session, a relaxing walk, or simply some extra attention and companionship, I’ll make sure your pets receive plenty of care, patience, and affection!

“Georgia was amazing! She gave regular updates and cute photos of the cats. One of my cats had diarrhea, but Georgia kept thorough updates on how she was doing. Already booked for another visit!”

About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember and grew up in a household where they were always part of the family. Because of that, caring for dogs has always felt really natural to me—from walks and playtime to feeding, routines, and, of course, plenty of attention and cuddles! While I’m newer to Rover, I’m not new to pet care. Over the years, I’ve helped care for dogs for friends, family, and people in my circle when they’ve been away or needed an extra hand. I know how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust taking care of your pet, especially when you can’t be there yourself. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, and very comfortable following whatever routine your dog is used to. I’m also happy to send plenty of photos and updates—I know I’d want the same if someone were watching my dog! My schedule is currently very flexible, which gives me plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine whenever possible. I know every dog has their own personality, boundaries, and routine, so I always take the time to learn what makes each pet comfortable. I’ll closely follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, crate routines, household rules, or anything else that helps keep your dog happy and safe. When I’m caring for a pet in their own home, I’m also very respectful of the space and want you to feel comfortable knowing both your pet and your home are being looked after.

About: I have so much love to give for your pet! I will take care of them like my own. I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and have a sweet spot for them! I work remotely so if need be I can come work at your place if I need to stay for awhile. I can also stop in at flexible times throughout the day and night when need be. I will cater to your pets environment, whether that is feeding them, walking them, playing with them or giving them plenty of pets and love and care!

“Carolina is beyond professional, compassionate, and thorough - SO thorough! She completely surpassed my expectations as a first time Rover user, and made a very anxious cat/dog lady feel 100% comfortable leaving my home and loved pets in her care. I’m grateful to have met her!”

About: For over 5 years, I've been the go-to pet caretaker for many in my community. From energetic puppies to wise senior dogs, I've had the joy of caring for them all. My experience spans walking, feeding, bathing, and even some basic training. Every pet is unique, and I pride myself on recognizing and attending to each one's individual needs. Whether your fur baby needs patience, energy, or a gentle touch, I'm here to provide it. Balancing a remote job gives me the flexibility and opportunity to dedicate substantial time to pet care. I’m fervent about ensuring our furry companions get ample play and attention. I am open for boarding on weekends, and my weekdays post 11am are entirely devoted to caring for pets. Rest assured, your pets will enjoy ample time of fun and care with me! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, I've created a pet-friendly environment, free from hazards and with plenty of play space. All pets have access to clean, comfortable resting spots and fresh water at all times. If I'm taking care of pets in your home, I'm respectful of your space and follow all guidelines provided. My goal is to ensure that whether I'm in your home or you entrust your pet in mine, they are safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I've taken care of animals since i was young. Dogs, cats, fish, and guinea pigs! I will care for your animals just like my own. I'm currently working part time at a coffee shop, and becoming an incoming freshmen in college, I am very flexible with my times, and whatever works for you! Whatever the animals needs I can do! Feed, walk, crate them if needed or instructed to do. Whatever helps the animal feel loved and cared for.

“Brittany is absolutely fantastic. We had her do drop-in visits for our two behaviorally challenging dogs over Thanksgiving and they were so well-cared for! She was friendly, responsive, and clearly understands dogs well. We highly recommend her and will definitely be asking her to watch our dogs again!”
