“Virginia provided such great care for our two dogs. She provided great updates and pictures, and went above and beyond when our little guy was not feeling well. It gave us great peace of mind when we were out of town that she cared for our dogs like her own.”

“Carolina was amazing, she stayed over at my place for the weekend and took greta care of my senior pup! She sent daily updates and made sure my baby was safe. Would absolutely book with her again!”

“Caroline is the best sitter we could have imagined. She took time to get to know Sammy up front with a couple of meet & greets to be sure their personalities vibed. At their second meeting, Sammy was giving her kisses and wagging his tail so hard I thought he might fall over! This was our longest time ever away from Sammy, and our trip could have been fraught with worry. But Caroline’s regular pics and daily wrap up bulletins calmed our worries from the start, and we were able to be fully present during our visit with family. Her proactivity and detailed interest in Sammy’s needs and personality shows how mi h she truly cares for animals. My only regret is that we didn’t connect with Caroline sooner and that she won’t be moving to our new city with us!”

“Lia was amazing and took great care of my fur baby while i was on vacation. She was able to come over and spend the whole day with her so she wasn’t alone and also send pictures throughout the week which was great. I can not recommend her enough and will absolutely will be hiring her again. Thanks again Lia!”

“Nicole was fantastic! She was organized, communicative, and clearly took great care of our dog while housesitting for several days. It's easy to see why she's a Star Sitter. We'll definitely hire her again in the future.”

“Lauren was very communicative, left the apartment extremely clean, followed instructions, and took good care of our dog. When our trip got extended by a few hours, Lauren was very understanding and accommodating of staying with our dog a bit longer to close the gap. My neighbor also reached out saying that she saw Lauren with our dog in the hallway of our building and that she was doing a great job with her. Overall, we would definitely hire Lauren again!”

“Kymberlee is very responsible and professional. She housesat for me and looked after my dog over the weekend, and I was very grateful for her capable demeanor and experience, especially because my dog had a recent injury and needed extra attention. She left my apartment in much better shape than she found it, and she dropped everything to help after I realized I’d left my ID at home while I was traveling. She is truly a class act, professional individual, and I highly recommend her.”

“Juliet was absolutely amazing with our senior kitty. Goldie was recently diagnosed with heart disease and now requires medication twice daily. This was the first time we left Goldie since her diagnosis and Juliet handled everything beautifully! She reduced our anxieties by providing multiple updates throughout the day and was a rockstar with administering medication. We came home to a very content, happy and healthy kitty, which means the world to us. Thank you Juliet!!”

“Elsbeth was wonderful with our pup. She was communicative, sent frequent photos and took him on long walks/played with him to get his energy out. I’d highly recommend Elsbeth to other pet owners and look forward to booking her again!”

“Both of our girls warmed up to Jayme — his care made them come out and about, and his frequent updates made me feel assured that they were doing great while we were gone. I highly recommend trusting him with your home and critters!”

“Grace was a wonderful house and dog sitter for our two pups! She was responsive to our messages and respectful of our home. She asked a lot of questions about our dogs’ routine and I would definitely ask her to watch them again!”

“Audrey is the best dog sitter! She is so sweet and caring to my pet:) I would recommend her to anyone looking for drop in sitting or overnight sitting. Can’t wait to have her watch my dog the next time I travel.”

“Annalee did such a great job taking care of our pup Remy! She sent lots of photos and videos of him playing and cuddling which were appreciated. And she went above and beyond tidying our apartment after her stay. We will absolutely use Annalee again!”

“Katelyn was so great with our senior dog! She was patient with her special needs and gave so many updates. Aside from taking great care of our dog, she left our apartment so clean and tidy! We would definitely have her back any time we’re out of town!”

North Rosslyn pet parents share their Rover experiences
Laila is amazing!! I had a very last minute cancellation, but Laila saved the day! After a video call I was confident that my dog would be well cared for while I was away. She was a great communicator and kept me updated throughout the stay. I appreciate her so much for her help!!

Tim did awesome watching our dog Fia. We were able to relax on vacation knowing our girl was being well cared for back home. He followed all of the instructions we left. We never had to ask for updates as he provided them throughout the day. He went above and beyond during the week. We will be booking with him again anytime we need a sitter.

Wow - Natalie took incredible care of our 10 month old golden puppy, Franklin, while we were out of town! She sent tons of photos every day of him walking, playing and napping. I could tell he was being walked often and far (even in mostly rainy weather), and that he was so happy and well exercised. Natalie was extremely communicative and trustworthy , and she went above and beyond all expectations. She left the house even cleaner than she found it. Natalie even washed the sheets and towels of the guest room she stayed in before I returned home, as well as running the dishwasher and putting away all dishes. I’d book her in a heartbeat again! I recommend you do too

Lauren was very communicative, left the apartment extremely clean, followed instructions, and took good care of our dog. When our trip got extended by a few hours, Lauren was very understanding and accommodating of staying with our dog a bit longer to close the gap. My neighbor also reached out saying that she saw Lauren with our dog in the hallway of our building and that she was doing a great job with her. Overall, we would definitely hire Lauren again!

Lakshmi was the perfect sitter for our dog, who needs a lot of loving attention. We received many updates and photos from Lakshmi, which were very welcome, and they all showed Katie happy and peaceful. Lakshmi also administered carefully and skillfully all of Katie's medications, including an injection. We highly recommend Lakshmi as a caretaker for your precious pet.

Kayleigh was absolutely wonderful with Poppy! She appreciated her quirks and had fun with her. She sent AMAZING pictures and great, detailed updates. We feel fortunate to have her stay with Poppy and taking such good care of her. Happy dog = happy dog parents! We’ll be booking Kayleigh again for sure 🤩

We are so grateful to have found Sabrina to watch our pup Wrigley. We came home to a very relaxed, happy dog, and the house was exactly as we left it. Sabrina was communicative, sent daily pics/updates, and clearly took great care of Wrigley. Would not hesitate to recommend her and can’t say enough great things!

Marko did a great job watching our dog Wilbur while we were out of town. Marko truly went above and beyond - making sure Wilbur got engagement, even during the snowstorm. Marko was communicative, lovely to work with, and most importantly, we came home to a safe and happy dog. We will absolutely be booking him again soon!

10/10 would recommend Tyler. She was extremely communicative before and during her stay at our place with our dog Sugar. It was very clear that Sugar got tons of attention and that Tyler really does care a lot. Sugar doesn’t do well with some other dogs and I felt very comfortable having Tyler walk her in our neighborhood. Tyler is professional, flexible, and has a great sense of humor which I appreciated in the updates she provided. We have already booked her again.
