“Christopher sent us plenty of photos and videos throughout the stay, which made us feel really comfortable and reassured. He took really good care of our dog, and our dog was super happy when we got back. This was our first time using Rover, and it turned out to be a great experience. We’d definitely recommend Christopher!”

“Karen is fabulous! Super organized! She took care of our 2 dogs all week and treated them like they were her own. They had tons of walks, snuggles & playtime. She kept us updated a few times per day every day to know how they were doing and sent us over 120 photos in a week (on average more than 10 per day). She truly deserves more than 5 stars.”

“Jorge and Alejandra were AMZAZING!! I have a very anxious girl (dog) Roo and they made sure she was very comfortable and felt right at home! They were great about sending updates and putting my mind at ease! Roo had a great time and was very tired when she came home! I felt very comfortable with her staying with them! They truly treated her like part of the family and I will be contacting them when needed again!”

“Anne Marie took such great care of Danny, she was patient and kind to him as a senior dog and just loved on him! I will definitely be asking Anne Marie to care for him again when I need it.”
“Kamille is simply the best. Domino always seems right at home, and she is always checking in with updates, and is so flexible and accommodating. When I have to leave town, it’s such a good feeling to not worry once about my pup!”
“Kerstyn was so wonderful and attentive. She was super communicative throughout the time my dog boarded with her, sending me updates on what my dog was up to. I felt at ease knowing that my dog was in good hands and having a good time. It was a great experience both for my dog and for me. She was sensitive to any concerns or specific attention areas that I had as well. I will definitely reach out to her again when I need to leave my dog in trusted hands, and I’m sure my dog would be happy to return as well.”

“Natalie watches our toy poodle when we are traveling. She takes great care of him and sends very cute pictures. She is also very flexible when our plans change. It’s such a comfort knowing that our dog is being taken care of so well.”

“We’re so grateful for the care our sitter gave our two pups during their stay. What began as a few days of boarding turned into a longer stay because of an unexpected medical emergency, and she was incredibly kind, flexible, and accommodating the entire time. Knowing our dogs were safe, cared for, and in good hands brought us real peace of mind during a very stressful situation. We truly appreciate her compassion and would absolutely trust her again.”

“Ana watched our dog, Bear, and it went great! She takes very good care of the dogs she watches. She has a great space for the dogs to play, and she was mindful of all of Bear’s needs (I.e. medication). Ana sent us lots of pictures while she watched Bear. We felt very comfortable having Bear stay with her and will definitely use her again!”
“Rae took such great care of Pepper. She was very communicative, and went above and beyond when Pepper wasn’t feeling well, keeping me informed of how Pepper was doing. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Rae to take care of your dog!”

“Cooper enjoyed his time with Huan, her family, their dog and the daycare dog. She fussed over him and let me know of any concerns immediately. We also got daily pictures and videos. He came home exhausted.”

“Yi was incredible. Very responsive and easy to work with. She accommodated extending my booking without issue. Sent plenty of great photos. Would definitely recommend! Very grateful to have had such a wonderful sitter!”

“Rong was fantastic! She communicated regularly and Ralphie came home happy. I can’t ask for much more than that! Her dog, Lucky, is also a sweetheart and made a good companion for my dog.”

“Sriju is an Angel! She was able to help us with last minute care for our Rosie bookending our trip (with my parents babysitting in between) and Rosie was simply obsessed with her. She got all the cuddles and plenty of exercise and I was thrilled knowing she was in such capable hands!”

“Wrigley was well cared for by Amishi and her family. Communication was great - we got pictures and updates every day. When our return flight was delayed, she was so gracious to keep him a little longer until we were able to pick him up. We highly recommend Amishi!”

“Bianca is fabulous. She is kind, loving, competent, caring. She was attentive to my tiny, anxious, elderly dog's needs. Bianca adjusted and adapted what I'd shared with her so that it worked in her home, e.g., my dog wouldn't eat with the same set-up as I use so Bianca tried out different ways until my dog finally ate. I was curious to see how Bianca's cat would be with my dog. At the meet & greet they calmly sized each other up. During the stay Bianca shared a lovely photo of my dog snuggled on her sofa with her cat on the armrest. Nice, mellow companions. I was thoroughly comfortable leaving my dog in Bianca's care and will absolutely do so again when I go out of town and can't bring my dog with me.”

“We just moved to the area so finding a new sitter for our dog was very important. I’m so happy we found Meri! Meri was very responsive and did a great job caring for our dog, Nina. We left Nina for three nights and we received photos/updates daily. Nina seemed very happy and loved the extra attention she received from Meri and her family. Thank you so much for taking care of our baby! We will definitely be using Meri again.”

“Our dog absolutely loved her stay, and as an anxious dog mom boarding for the first time, I appreciated the daily check-ins more than you know!! Thank you for the amazing service”

Potomac pet parents share their Rover experiences
I am very picky leaving my 12 year old grandpup anywhere. He needs a little extra care since he’s older, is going blind and has bad separation anxiety. George went out of his way and was informing me the entires time what my pup was up too was sending multiple pics daily which helped me feel so secure on his stay there. I thanked him for always responding so fast and just making me feel like my doggie was in good hands. When I picked him up he was a happy boy wagging his tail and I could tell he was well treated, unlike other places I have left him. I highly recommend George and his services he did amazing w my señior pup. Most definitely will be booking him again for my upcoming trip!

Shoham was wonderful with our pup! She sent us updates every day (often more than once a day), and we loved getting the pics and videos. Our pup had a fantastic stay, and it was clear she treats the dogs she cares for as part of her family. We felt at ease that our pup was in such good hands and would definitely recommend her!
We left Mr Buttons with Yi for a whole week, while we were on vacation & boy, did he have a blast!! Yi kept us updated with lots of videos & photos and was very prompt in responding to our messages. We are long time repeat clients & whole heartedly recommend Yi, esp if you are looking for a caring home for your small dog.

Jihae always takes such loving care of our pups. I can see the regular walks on the Fi app becausr she let's us plug in the bases at her place. She sends pics every day while we are away as well as little updates on their activities. We are so happy we found her, and our doggos seem to be happy too.

We are extremely fortunate to have found Robin. She has watched our little guy for many years. We find Robin to be an extremely thoughtful caregiver with expertise in caring for and raising dogs. I trust her implicitly. Additionally, our guy has extreme anxiety, but he is always happy to be with Robin and her pups. Without Robin to take care of our pup, I don't think we would ever leave town.

Yulan is an exceptional sitter! She is very responsive, flexible, and friendly. She was able to accommodate to changing schedules with so much understanding. She took great care of Myla and sent daily updates with pictures and videos. I definitely trust her with Myla and will book her again.

Maddy is awesome! She was happy to take time to meet us before booking and was so caring towards our dog Kali from the start. She is responsive, sends great pictures, and has a fun dog of her own to keep your pup company. Maddy is flexible, reliable, and accommodating. So glad we found her and you will be also!

Jennifer is a pet owner's dream come true! She is punctual with her feedback, easy to work with and most of all extremely caring. She definitely will be our first choice going forward. We are so happy we found her. We picked up Dudley super happy, well taken care of and on a walking schedule we are trying to maintain. :) We cannot thank her enough!
