House Sitting in Reston

“Rachael was amazing with my fur babies. It is so hard to find someone to trust but Rachael really made me feel at ease while on my trip, and my dogs made a new bff. We will definitely be booking with her again <3”

About: I’ve been working closely with dogs since I was four years old. We moved around a lot growing up and I would always helped her readjust to feel safe in new areas. I would get to know neighbors’ and friends’ pets, and with this early life experience, I’m a natural at getting pets to feel comfortable with me. I have experience working with senior dogs and dogs in recovery from injury, as well as dogs who have been rescued or traumatized by scary situations. I am currently in school, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I typically have 1-2 classes per weekday, either in the morning or at night, leaving the majority of my schedule open for pet care. I always make sure pets’ emotional needs are taken care of. For example, I pay very close attention to body language. At home, if my dog is ever purposefully ignoring me, I check with her to see if something is wrong.

“Sarah was amazing with my two dogs, Tito and Maddie! I just adopted Maddie two weeks ago and was nervous how they would do in a new place together. Sarah took all of my worry away and they did so well with her. She sent wonderful updates about their day with adorable photos. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were with Sarah and I highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies. I will definitely be using Sarah again in the future:)”

“Rosemary took great care of my dog Beau. While I was away she provided me updates and pictures which made me feel at ease while I was away. When I came home the house was clean and tidy. I appreciate the love and care that Rosemary gave my boy.”

“Julia provided great care for our two furbabies, making sure they were happy and having a great time! Appreciated all the pictures and videos too!”

“Asal was a fabulous sitter for our very small puppy! He has lots of energy and isn’t quite potty trained yet, but Asal took it all in stride. Her calm demeanor is so reassuring—you know right away that your pup is in superb hands! She was very detail oriented, wanting to be sure she knew all the ins and outs of his schedule and our preferences. I will definite hire her again!”

Sarah F.

“I have been nervous for a while to use rover for my two kitties and Allison coming and staying at my house showed me why I did not need to be worried! Allison loved and cared for my cats so much! She gave them their daily medicines with food, worked with my automatic litter boxes, and most importantly played and loved on them so much! She was very very communicative and responsive and also sent me so many cute pictures! I always miss my cats so much when I’m gone so this helped me a lot! I also frequently asked how things were going and Allison was very responsive which helped reassure me! She also left my home neat and tidy how it was left for her which was nice to come home to! Allison rocks and I am so appreciative to have someone so kind and thoughtful taking care of my pets! It’s going to make leaving them to go out of town a little easier :) thank you so much Allison!!!!”

“Steph is wonderful. She is considered and extremely polite. She took great care of our two boys and sent us daily updates and pictures. The boys looked happy and relaxed enjoying their time with Steph. She also took care of my hydrangeas that did not like the heat. We will definitely be using her when we are out of town again. Thank you Steph and Rover”

“Kristen was an amazing dog sitter. She took great care of the dogs and updated me regularly on how they were doing. She so took great care of my home. She is great with the dogs and looks out for their every need”

Andrew H.

“Vinnie did a great job with our anxious dog, Stax. She can sometimes be nervous with men and Vinnie went out of his way to do a meet and greet with her, as well as checking on all of her care instructions. He communicated well and we look forward to him taking care of Stax again soon.”

Jade P.

“Kendall was amazing! She gave very good daily updates with several photos. I could tell my babies were taken care of and loved on. She got them goodies (after asking my permission to do so) and when I got home from the trip there was a baggie with an overall report card for each dog, a printed collage of photos she had taken of them, and cookies for each dog. Overall the best pet sitting experience we have had from Rover to-date!”

Sara G.

“Sierra was fantastic. My dogs were happy, healthy and good when I came back home. One was having accidents inside before I left and Sierra had them on such a good schedule he didn’t have any. 10/10 I recommend her to anyone that’s looking for fantastic pet care!”

Hicham A.

“Allegra was amazing!! Probably the best dog sitter we've ever had. Very communicative, flexible, and on top of things (plus my dogs loved her). If you want to have a stress-free time, you should totally hire Allegra to watch your pets. I know that if I ever need a sitter in the future, she is going to be who I go to first.”

Kasey C.

“Joanne instantly bonded with my pets and it was obvious that they were very relaxed and happy in the photos she sent. She gave them little bandanas and treats. She is very conscientious and a good communicator. She left the house very clean. Would recommend!”

Anne K.

“Jake was awesome! He came by and was so sweet meeting my dogs and listening to what their routine was and he sent me multiple photos each day of my dogs. He was so great with them and was very respectful of my anxiety of leaving them for the first time. I would absolutely recommend and rebook Jake should I ever need a dog sitter again.”

Mikayla F.

“Almendra was wonderful. Bernese Mountain dog- Wilbur- and Samoyed puppy-Charlotte loved her. She was communicative and asked thoughtful questions to ensure the pups were well taken care of!”

Anna D.

“McKenna is a wonderful dog sitter. She was attentive, caring, and communicative the whole time I was away from home. I received many pictures of my dog, and I could easily tell he was enjoying the time he spent with McKenna. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet or home sitter.”

Jason M.

“Danielle is awesome! She is great with my two cats, one of whom can be quite anxious. She keeps my place clean and neat, sends pics to keep me in the loop, responds to my texts and phone calls right away, etc. I've looked a long time for a great cat sitter. I finally found one in Danielle.”

About: I’ve been taking care of my families dogs since I was in elementary school. In high school I rescued a dog of my own, and she gets all the love and attention she deserves! Your pets will be in great hands, I love taking care of and spoiling fur babies! I am a full-time college student at JMU. I am home for breaks, and would love to spend my free time taking care of your fur baby! I can feed, walk, and play with your pet. I’m experienced in giving medicine, and taking care of high maintenance pets. I’m a great communicator, and will send videos or pictures to you (Walk report). I have a knack for making every pet my friend!

“Keila is so sweet and wonderful with animals!!! It was so great to receive updates and pictures/ videos of my cat while I was away!! Amazing experience + highly recommend!! :D”
