“Elly has been the best! She does recurring weekly walks for my pup, Winston. Always on time, leaves updates and lots of pictures. My pup is not the most active/doesn’t always want to walk but she always makes sure he gets out to pee even when he is being stubborn. Going back into the office has been a breeze due to Elly - thank you!!!”

“Ashley has been walking my dog for a few months and she is amazing!! She’s super quick to respond to requests and always sends pics from walks. My dog loves her too - would highly recommend her services!”


About: Updated November 2022: I have recently moved to North Arlington. I previously had the luxury of having pups board at my house, but unfortunately I don’t have that ability here in Arlington. So now I’m hoping to care for pups in the comfort of their own homes! I have a small Frenchie I’d love to bring along, but can also leave her behind if needed! I’m currently working in the office Mondays & Tuesday, but work at home the rest of the week! Original Profile Details: Hello! My name is Matt! I have worked as the Assistant General Manager at Dogtopia Alexandria for 2 years. We were voted #1 store in North America in 2016 and 2017! I have tons of experience with all types of breeds and personalities, from outgoing, high energy pups to the more reserved and anxious pups. I will provide them with the exercise, care, support and love they need while their Pack Leaders are out of town! I currently have a sweet French Bulldog that will become your pups best friend! Growing up I had two German Shepherds and a Sheltie. I love dogs and am a big believer in “It’s a dog’s world, we just live in it.” I am currently working from home Wednesday through Fridays - so your pup will get a walk first thing in the morning, just after lunch and later in the evening at a minimum. If it’s a Monday or Tuesday, your pup will get an early morning walk, early afternoon then an evening walk at a minimum. I would require a meet and greet ahead of any booking. While out of town I will provide daily updates and as many pictures as I can!
“Rita has been absolutely incredible. She started walking Louie a few weeks ago, and when I had surgery she helped me with taking the recycling and trash on her way out and I really appreciate how she loves my Louie Girl but also cares about me. Can't recommend enough.”

“Abbie took care of our little one, and she did a great job. Our dog looks very happy, and she made sure that our little guy didn't leave a mess. She had great communication with us, and overall, it was great.”

About: My apartment has been particularly lonely lately as my senior dog recently passed away to a quick but aggressive illness. I have free time and extra love and walks to give to your pups on the weekends! I’ve been helping my mom walk, feed, and love on dogs as part of her business since I was a kid, and I have experience with senior dogs, including administering medications. I’m in the office every day, but I am happy to drop by and hang out/walk your pup on the weekends! Sadly, I am unable to board dogs at my apartment. I am unable to board dogs in my apartment, so I am happy to come to you! I am able to crate your dog and follow any other instructions for your pet and home.
“Julia literally gave our dog an extra cashmere sweater she had to keep him warm on his walks in the snow! She is incredible and has the biggest heart! Every morning Banx waits for her by the door- he can’t wait for his walks!”

About: I’ve dog sat for three years now. My experience comes from dog sitting multiple neighbors dogs, friends dogs and family dogs. I’ve also fostered 3 dogs and I’ve had a great time doing so! I’ve always made sure my furry companions have best care. My schedule is very flexible throughout the week. I just need to know a few days in advance to plan out my week. Happy to adjust my schedule if emergencies come up. I make sure to bring toys to keep them entertained. I take them on daily walks and run around. Happy to take them to the dog park as well!
“Cynthia is amazing! She’s always on time and very communicative about the walk. She was also very patient with our annoying apartment door system. Highly recommend!”

North Highland dog parents share their Rover experiences
We are so lucky to have found Alisha to take care of our dog, Max. She is so kind and caring. We feel comfortable and confident having her walk Max. She will go the extra mile to make sure Max is happy and comfortable. She is also very professional and excellent with time. 1000% recommend.

Deniz is great. She is very commutative and reliable. It’s very clear she loves dogs (and vice versa). Our dog can be a bit skittish or picky with who he likes but he loved Deniz from the beginning. She sends lots of pictures and always seems to go above and beyond
