“Took such wonderful care of our boy. As this was our first time leaving him alone we were a bit nervous but Leonard and Kathryn made it so easy and anxiety free. Will absolutely be booking again!!”

“Donna was wonderful, as always! She's warm, caring, and great with our dog. We also appreciated her clear communication and the regular updates she sent about how our dog was doing!”

“I am super happy with this pet sitter. This is her full time retirement job so my dog receives the care, stimulation, and attention it needs in a safe and comfortable environment. I can’t use conventional daycares since my dog is a foster and there are increased risks of fights and injuries with many dogs and not enough one on one attention. Her yard has a high and fully secured fence and is big enough to run around in for my husky. She owns a dog that is very friendly which helps give my dog the company and exercise he needs from playing tag in the yard. Huskies have high exercise needs and by the end of the day my husky is tired which is great and less work for me to do. My dog is also slightly special needs and inclined towards seizures and she was very accommodating and administered his medicine when I didn’t have time to get to it one morning. She is quick and diligent with responses and kept track of everything through the day so I got a report from rover that told me how many times he peed or pooped that day, as well as videos and pictures. This will be my go-to for daycare and pet sitting needs for as long as I have my foster dog. Would highly recommend if you want an ideal place to leave your dog where you can be assured that it will be safe and receive full attention and care.”

“Tali had the best day with Anya and her dog Scout! Tali was instantly so comfortable with the both of them. Anya kept me updated during the day and was very responsive and flexible. I got lots of pics and videos from her day. I felt completely at ease leaving my pup with her!”

“Overall had a positive experience with Sush. She was accommodating and communicative. Above all, my pup has a great time there and I can feel at ease knowing he is loved there. We will be back soon.”

“Miryam treats our 9-week puppy well, playing with her patiently and taking her out for potty break every 2 hours. She sends us photos to keep us in the loop throughout the day. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of different kind of doggy.i used to worked at a dog daycare center and now i have my own business staying home a lot so i choose to see if I make use of of experience to take care of pups while at home I wake up around 8 at the morning and I will take them for a walk and then they will have their breakfast. After lunch I will take him for a small walk and later on hangout at around 4pm. they will have dinner at around 6 pm and then have a night walk at around 8-9pm I live at a apartment but downstairs have a big dog park. And I mostly WFH, so I will probably spend 99.9%with them, they will have my in their sight.
“Chang was wonderful in watching Mia, who immediately seemed at ease with her. Chang was able to get her to relax and eat some of her food and also treated Mia to a pup smoothie bowl that she enjoyed. We also appreciated Chang's prompt responses to our messages and all the pictures and updates she shared. We're glad we found Chang on short notice.”


“Guy helped us out when we needed a Doggie Day Care while we were visiting Arlington National Cemetery for an interment. We didn't know how long the 3 ceremonies would take, and he told us that he would help us for whatever we needed. With all that was going on for us, he offered comfort in taking care of our beloved Toby.”

About: Hi, I’m Kira, a lifelong dog lover and recent dog parent! I offer dependable walks, daycare, and in-home sitting that keep your pets active, comfortable, and cared for like family. I believe every dog deserves personalized attention and plenty of playtime. You can count on clear communication, safe routines, and extra snuggles along the way. Whether it’s a quick walk or a cozy overnight stay, I’ll make sure your pup feels right at home. I’m available Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. for dog walks, whether your pup needs a quick potty break or a long, active stroll, I’ll make sure they get plenty of exercise and love. On weekends, I offer walks by appointment and house sitting, giving your pet consistent care and comfort while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to let someone care for your dog, and I don’t take that lightly. Before any booking, I love doing a meet & greet to learn your dog’s routines, personality, and comfort needs, it helps me create a calm, consistent environment where they feel at home. I live in a cozy one-bedroom condo with no yard, but dogs get plenty of outdoor time through regular walks and potty breaks. I choose safe, quiet routes and tailor each walk to your pup’s energy and comfort level. My goal is always to make every dog feel safe, loved, and completely cared for, whether we’re out exploring or relaxing inside.
“Spencer was able to accommodate a last minute daycare request and did a wonderful job with my dog. He asked good questions, sent many pictures throughout the day, and clearly took very good care of Chance.”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for my dogs! She took excellent care of them and gave me such peace of mind while I was away. She kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and little notes, which really reassured me that my pups were happy, safe, and well cared for. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in her hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and truly caring with animals.”


“We had a great experience leaving our dog Otto to spend a day with Amina. She communicated very well and gave Otto the attention he needed. Otto also had the opportunity to enjoy the time with Snowy (Amina’s lovely dog). Thank you very much for the great care. Looking forward to have Otto spending more time with you soon.”

“Forrest & Stephanie were amazing! They really welcomed our dog, Beignet, into their family for the day. They updated us with pictures throughout the day & Beignet was a happy pup!”

Old Diminion dog parents share their Rover experiences
From the pictures Hermes appeared to enjoy hanging out with Taylor’s cute pooch. Even though Metro delays meant I arrived for pickup later than expected, Taylor did not complain. Thanks for looking after our furbaby(hope he did not shed much- we had combed him in the afternoon).

Tali had the best day with Anya and her dog Scout! Tali was instantly so comfortable with the both of them. Anya kept me updated during the day and was very responsive and flexible. I got lots of pics and videos from her day. I felt completely at ease leaving my pup with her!

Leila was amazing!! She took wonderful care of my dog Mila, sent updates and photos, and made the whole process stress-free. My dog came home happy and well cared for. I would definitely book again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!

Kelly was responsive, kind, and walked/fed my dog as requested. Though, I want to bring up a note for other dog owners. The area is very urban with mostly concrete and little grass so my dog wouldn't relieve herself until we found grass after pickup, even though Kelly tried her best by walking my dog multiple times. If your dog is skittish, needs grass to go, or isn't comfortable with busy urban environments, this location may be challenging for them.

Diyar was wonderful!!! She took great care of Doc. It was a very last minute request because Doc’s brother came to town unexpectedly. It was so nice not to worry about Doc. Diyar sent several photos and kept me updated on how Doc was doing. I would recommend Diyar to my family and friends. We will contact her again in the future.

Tucci was calm, healthy and looking good when we picked her up from her daycare with Michael S. So she must have enjoyed playtime with Michael! Plus Michael was super easy to work with, especially when we needed to switch coordination duties from Dogmom to Dogdad, along with changes to the pick-up time. We were so grateful for Michael S.'s flexibility! We will definitely seek out Michael S. again for daycare!

He was able to provide me care on short notice and was very communicated through the whole process. Samson seem to fit right in and was comfortable. Was given an update throughout the day. Would recommend to anyone looking for a sitter. Conveniently close by the trails!
