About: Hi, I’m Megan! I’m a full-time remote Digital Marketing Specialist with an active lifestyle and a passion for pets. I’ve been walking dogs and caring for pets since 2021, with experience handling dogs of all sizes and ages. I grew up with a family dog (black lab) and am now a proud pet aunt to a corgi named Betty, a golden doodle named Archie, and a black cat named Vivi. While I don’t have pets of my own, I love every opportunity to care for yours through Rover. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I create an stress-free, fun environment where they feel comfortable and loved. Feel free to reach out anytime — I’m a quick responder and can’t wait to meet you and your fur baby! Since I’m fully remote, my schedule is pretty flexible depending on my meetings. I’ll make sure to keep my calendar updated so you can easily book the times that work for you and your pet. I am not allowed pets in my apartment but can go to the fur baby’s home to watch and care for them! I am located in Courthouse.
“I have had Aimee watch my cat Harley multiple times. She goes above and beyond to take care of Harley and I appreciate all of the photos and updates she sends. Will continue to use her in the future!”
About: I have fifteen years of pet sitting and care experience, to include drop-ins, walks, feedings, litter box cleaning and overnight stays. When I was little, I wanted to be a veterinarian, and then a zoologist. Neither career panned out, but my love for animals remained. Now I get my fill of furry friends by providing excellent, worry-free care for your pets! As a proud mom of three urban hens, I know how nerve-wracking it is to be away from a beloved pet. That’s why I provide frequent updates and pictures to my clients so that they can go about their workdays or trips without anxiety. I specialize in cats, dogs and birds. I can’t wait to meet your pet! I am currently freelancing part-time, which provides me with an extremely flexible schedule to care for your pets! From walks to drop-ins to overnight stays, I can provide a variety of services to DMV pet owners When in your home whether for a drop-by or overnight stay, I am committed to making your pet feel as comfortable and happy as possible in the absence of their person/people. I follow my clients’ instructions and specifics of their pets’ routines, and follow them closely. I also provide lots of love and cuddles (or love from afar for pets that don’t like to be touched!)
“Megan took great care of my senior cat, Betty White! My request was super last minute and Megan was a lifesaver. She was super communicative and was able to do my cats medication as well. Will definitely use her again!”

We got tons of cute pictures and an update letting us know how Pi was doing, and it was honestly such a smooth and positive experience. Thank you Julia!”

About: I recently graduated with a PhD from George Mason University, so I'm highly organized and detail-oriented. I love animals of all shapes and sizes, and pet sitting provides much-needed joy and balance to my sedentary work at a computer. I work remotely with flexible hours, so I am able to accommodate specific feeding times, frequent check-ins, and potty breaks. As a proud cat owner, I'm very observant and knowledgeable about cat behavior and body language. I provide calm and gentle care that helps even the most timid cats feel secure and safe in their own space. I am skilled with trimming nails and brushing, and am happy to provide those services upon request, depending on your cat's tolerance. I also have several years of experience managing overnight house sits and walking dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including Greyhounds, Pit Bulls, and Australian Shepherds. I am able to care for and manage a wide range of dog energy levels. Whether your dog is high-energy and needs a brisk walk or is an elderly senior who requires a slow, gentle pace and careful supervision, I’ve got them covered. I'm currently working a fully remote, part-time job so my schedule is very flexible. I am able to offer drop-in visits any day of the week, any time of day between 8am and 8pm. I offer overnight visits for up to 3 consecutive nights. Home visits and overnights: I double-check that all doors are securely locked after every visit, bring in mail, and ensure your home was well-maintained during my stay. Leash Safety & Walking: On walks, safety is non-negotiable. I use a secure grip, stay highly observant of our surroundings, and never allow interaction with unknown dogs or people on the street unless you give me permission. Whether handling a strong, high-energy breed, or a sensitive, anxious dog, I maintain total focus and connection with your dog. Cat Care: For drop-ins, I make sure to provide for all your cat's needs including changing water, feeding, scooping litter, and playtime, grooming, and cuddles as requested. I also take time to read your cat's body language—if they want play and interaction, I'm fully present; if they prefer a calm presence from a distance, I respect their boundaries. I'm experienced with brushing and cleaning ears, so I am happy to offer that upon request, depending on your cat's temperament and needs. Updates: You will receive detailed updates and photos during every visit and at regular intervals during overnight stays.

Will was great with our cat Perkins! He was super communicative and responsive. He was super timely on check in visits and consistent. He sent great pics of Perkins and they seemed to get along great. I cant wait to rebook with him for our next vacay. Thanks Will!
Sarah was such a great caretaker for my cat Punch Bowl while I was away! She gave me peace of mind while I was gone by playing with him, petting him, and giving him treats. I felt really comfortable with Sarah checking in on him and she is clearly a huge animal lover- Punch Bowl seemed super comfortable with her!
I had an excellent experience with Zoey and would absolutely book with her again. Before my trip, she took the time to come to my apartment to meet my cats, get familiar with their routines, and make sure she understood all of the care instructions. That gave me a lot of confidence before leaving. During every drop-in visit, she sent detailed updates along with plenty of photos, which gave me peace of mind and let me know my cats were doing well. It was clear she genuinely cared about their well-being and paid attention to how they were behaving each day. She also went above and beyond by keeping everything clean, taking care of the litter boxes, and tidying up after my cats during her visits. When I returned home, my cats were happy, well cared for, and my apartment was just as clean as I had left it. I highly recommend Zoey to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and compassionate pet sitter. She made traveling completely stress-free, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.
Sam did an awesome job of taking care of Teddy for over 2 weeks. Teddy was our new rescue and we were a bit nervous leaving him since he is still a bit skittish. This was also our first time using Sam. But the daily love-fest of photos put us at ease right away. We got to see Teddy was receiving the best of care and loving. When we got home, it was evident that Teddy was the happiest we’ve ever seen him. Thank you Samantha! ❤️
I was very pleased with Erica as a pet sitter for my cat. She was very reliable and I liked the way she took notes during the intro visit. It was the first time I had used her as my pet sitter and the first time using Rover in many years. Erica sent pictures and gave me updates daily as to how things were going with my elderly cat and she was very good at communicating with me regularly. She handled bringing in the mail and also another small house chore. I appreciated her flexibility. Most importantly, she seemed sincere in wanting to help my cat be as secure and comfortable as possible when I was away.
