“Rachel has been helping us take care of our two sweet, energetic doggos! They have big personalities and she has been excellent adapting to their needs and routines. She always sends pictures and videos of them playing and by the end of her visits they are all tuckered out from the fun. She’s also enthusiastic and easy to communicate with, which has made this a great experience for us humans. Definitely recommend her services!”

“Jana was my first experience with a rover sitter and I could not be more happy about it! She was really communicative about everything. She made a checklist for everything she needed to do for each visit and was really prepared. She also sent photo updates of my kitties and let me know every time she was with them. Jana also went above and beyond and made the kittens a toy for them to enjoy (so sweet!!) which really shows how much she cared about my kitties [and animals in general!] She took time to play with them and give them attention :) Jana made me feel so much better about having left my cats alone for a few days and I would book her again and I definitely recommend her services!”

“Krystian is always great with our pet’s! They love the care and attention they receive when he comes to check in on them. I always get lots of pictures from the visits. They are always super happy which makes me happy.”
“Jenni was such an angel and so helpful with our cats. She accommodated our change of schedule so well and we felt so relieved to have her watching over our babies while we were out. Will be asking her to help out whenever we can. ❤️❤️”

“Marion was so generous while checking on our cats during the holidays. She gave them extra love and attention above and beyond what we expected! We came home to very happy cats that were almost disappointed it was us walking in the door rather than her! Thank you so much, Marion!!”

“Shakuntala is such a joy to work with! Our puppy Ares adores her and looks forward to their time together each day! She is informative, kind, and loving to Ares. She takes the best photos too which is so great to see when we are away at work :) I would HIGHLY recommend her to take care of anyone’s pets as she picks up on their routines so quickly and makes sure that both the owners and pet are happy at all times! We are so thankful to have met Shakuntala and can’t wait to see all the great times and memories she will be making with Ares.”

About: Growing up, cats and dogs were always part of my home — they weren't just pets, they were family. That foundation gave me a natural ability to read animal behavior, understand their needs, and make them feel safe and comfortable in any environment. Today I share my home with my toy poodle who I've raised since 2021 and my tabby cat who has been my companion since 2014. This means your pet is coming into an environment that is already pet friendly, calm, and loving — not an unfamiliar space that needs adjusting. As my own boss I have the flexibility to give your pet the time and attention they truly deserve. Just let me know your needs in advance and consider it done — I show up, every time. My home is a safe, loving and structured environment. With a fenced yard, a resident toy poodle for companionship, and a calm indoor space, your pet will feel right at home. I follow your routines closely and crating is always available if that’s what your pet is used to
“Astrid is great! She checked in on our cat daily for a little over a week. She’s very reliable with excellent communication and kept our cat happy while we were away. I would definitely book with her again!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for 4 years and have been consistently asked to watch the pets again. I am trustworthy and consistent During the week I work 8 hours a day but on weekends am home full time :) weekends are best but can watch during the week as well if the dog is ok being home just during the work day I take the dogs on at least 3 walks a day because I do live in an apartment. Also have a dog park in my building and bark social right next door
About: I've cared for multiple cats and dogs of friends and families over the years and have some professional experience. I worked at DogiZone in Rockville for nearly a year (2020-2021) and for a few months at Scooter's Pet Care in Seattle, WA (2025), as a pet care technician. Part of my responsibilities included walking, exercising, administering medication, bathing, and spending the night with dogs of all ages and sizes. I also have some training experience and have worked with up to 30 dogs at one time. I'm currently not working until the summer is over, so I am very flexible. My schedule is totally open for dog or cat sitting, walking, or check-ins. The way I care for your pets is up to you; I can adapt to your needs, whatever they may be. I am comfortable crating pets if need be, but I prefer to let my own pets roam free throughout my house. With puppies or smaller dogs, I keep a close eye on their activities, especially when they're outside.
“I highly recommend Ivan as someone who will take great care of your pet. He has been doing a great job looking after my dog (1h drop in visits daily). There was a recent minor medical emergency and he handled it extremely well. He is thoughtful and conscientious of the pet’s individual needs. Very grateful to have him!”
“Along with having an authentic relationship with Miles, Armanush is an exemplary communicator who works diligently to ensure my pet’s needs are met during her drop-in visits.”

Ashley was great with my cat and dog! My dog is very nervous and she took her time letting Tot warm up to her. Ashley accommodated a short notice booking which was amazing, and she was prompt, kept me updated and checked over everything I asked her to. I would highly recommend her!

Natalie is a wonderful and I’d highly recommend her for anyone with a puppy. She’s great with our 3 month old terrier mix. I’m pretty sure our puppy is more excited to see Natalie walk in than she is to see her own family members come home! Natalie’s also easy to communicate and schedule with and is very reliable. Five stars!

Ilana was fantastic.Ilana took excellent care of my dog Duke while I was out of town for three days. She was reliable, professional, and clearly cared about Duke’s well-being. She handled feeding and walking him twice a day, and giving his daily medication without any issues. It gave me real peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend Ilana to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.

Danny was a God-send! He was super responsive, accommodating, conscientious, and responsible. He was also wonderful with our dog, Mojito, who looks out the door every afternoon as if waiting for Danny. 😃 I can't recommend Danny enough and will definitely be using him again.

Jana was very communicative and friendly while we planned her visit with my dog. She did a great job watching my dog and sent me many updates to let me know things were going and sent pictures so I could see all the fun they were having! Will definitely reach out to her again for help with my dog!

Jefferson is fantastic! Very responsive and quite knowledgable about German Shepherds! Our puppy really enjoyed meeting him and we've subsequently booked him for recurring visits. He's even working with him on some puppy training, learning/reinforcing commands. I would highly recommend Jefferson for your pet care needs!
