Dog Boarding Rivercrest

“Boy, i feel really lucky to have come across Donna. Donna was awesome with Suzie. I was concerned since Suzie can be a feisty pup. But she took to Donna in no time and they really seemed to hit it off. Donna was very fast to respond and my mind was so at ease knowing that Suzie was in her care. I think that is about the highest praise i can possibly give.”

“Kerstyn took great care of our pup Jane! We received daily updates plus photos. Jane also loved playing with Freya! One thing we appreciated was Kerstyn’s patience with Jane, who is slightly anxious and needs a little time to get used to new situations.”

“Laurie and Richard took excellent care of my senior pup, who was very relaxed throughout her stay. I would definitely use their services again.”

Robin K.

“Michael did a great job with my little rescue Yorkie, Gracie. He sent pictures and updates on how she was doing and was very communicative throughout the process. Gracie is a velcro dog who is very shy and anxious around new people and dogs. She seemed to acclimate to Michael and his daughter quickly which I could tell in the pictures. She had been very content and happy once since I picked her up. Will definitely be boarding Gracie with him again in the future.”

“We had a great experience with Juliana! Buster came home happy and calm. Great communication and we’re in a great spot for walks and a dog park.”

Grace F.

“Our dog, James, was in great hands with Evan! Very kind and communicative from first message through the visit. James had a great time and came home happy! Looking forward to booking again.”

“Matt and Kelly (and their sweet daughter!) took great care of Robbin while I was away! They took her on plenty of walks and runs and I received pictures while I was away which was very much appreciated.”

Kelly M.

“Great experience! We highly recommend Helena to anyone looking for a caring dog sitter. We left our 40-lb dog Calvin for a week with Helena without any issues. She took good care of him during our absence. Great photos as well. When our flight was delayed, Helena was totally flexible and understanding.”

“Benny loves going to Shanilka’s, and I love knowing that he is getting such great care. We are a repeat customer and will continue booking with Shanilka. We couldn’t be happier.”

“I couldn't have been blessed with a better sitter. Diana and her family totally exceeding my expectations with taking care of my Apollo. I received updates and photos multiple times a day, that showed the love he was getting, the amazing care he was getting, and he was happy. This was the 1st time using Rover and I was extremely nervous, but Diana and her family took away all my worry. She and her family celebrated Apollo's 3rd birthday with him. We were greeted with balloons. How awesome was that! Diana's love has for dogs shows immensely as well as her good character, and I would absolutely use her again and strongly recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter for their dog. Thank you Diana, I appreciate you and your family. Until we meet again...”

“Romy and her family were so caring and welcomed our cat so warmly in their home. She had great communication from the very start and wanted to know as much as possible to make sure our cat would be happy and healthy during her stay. She sent updates and photos everyday, and our cat seemed right at home and getting lots of attention, just as she likes. We would love to have our cat stay with Romy again.”

About: Hi, I'm Jenn! Lifelong dog person in Washington DC (McLean Gardens area). I was a dog mom for 19 wonderful years to my puggle, Bailey Boo — she taught me everything I know about stubborn personalities, senior dog care, medication schedules, and the true meaning of a 2am potty break. I work from home, so your pup won't be sitting around alone. Expect plenty of walks, playtime, belly rubs, and a couch with their name on it. I'm comfortable with seniors, puppies, shy rescues, and pups with special needs or meds. Whether it's boarding, daycare, or drop-in visits, I'll treat your dog like they're my own — and yes, you'll get plenty of photo updates. I know exactly how it feels to miss them. I work from home full-time as a UX consultant, so I'm around all day — no 9-to-5 gap, no rushing home. My days naturally revolve around walks, playtime, and potty breaks built right into my routine: morning walk to start the day, midday break, afternoon adventure, and evening wind-down. My schedule is flexible, so drop-ins and boarding fit easily, including weekdays when other sitters are stuck at an office. Your pup basically gets a stay-at-home buddy who plans the day around them. In my home, your pup joins the household, not a kennel. I work from home so they're never left alone for long stretches — always supervised, and I follow your rules on crates, feeding, meds, and routines exactly as you set them. You'll get photo updates so you never have to wonder how they're doing. **In your home:** I treat it with the same respect — stick to your pet's routine, keep everything clean and secure, leave the place as I found it. Safety first always: secure doors, no off-leash unless you say so, and straight to your vet or an emergency vet if anything seems off.

“Katerine was fantastic - she’s a naturally very kind person and took great care of our dog. She sent lots of pics and shared updates throughout our week long trip. At pick up, she gave a great rundown of the week and our dog seemed quite happy. She has a nice, fenced in backyard and a nice, grassy area for walks. All around, a great Rover experience.”

“Ewelina did a great job watching our pup! She was very responsive to our messages and made sure our dog got plenty of exercise. We highly recommend trusting her with your dog!”

About: Since the age of 13 I have enjoyed caring for the pets of friends, family, neighbors, and co workers. I have been trusted to walk, feed, and administer medication to fury friends of all kinds for extended and short periods of time! While weekends work best for me, I have no problem dropping in during the week for afternoon walks and bathroom breaks with your fury friends! As a pet owner, I understand the special bond between an owner and their pet. Because of this, I care for any pet as if they were my own, with love, care, and attention! I live in the heart of Cleveland Park where their a several walking trails and a small dog park right across the street!

“Colleen took wonderful care of our cockapoo for 3 days. She sent photos several times and provided photos. She also was able to give some eyedrops several times per day that our dog required. My dog seemed content and well cared for. Thank you.”

Laura K.

“Jenna was outstanding! Communication was nearly instantaneous, and it was clear she and her husband truly loved our dogs. We received frequent messages and tons of great photos showing our pups happy, relaxed, and having fun. They were clearly in excellent hands. As good as it gets: we’ll absolutely use her again!”

Uriah F.

“Guy took such great care of our dog while we were on vacation. He sent us daily updates and pictures. He has an awesome set up at his house, and our dog had a blast!”

Lily R.

“Jodee and AJ are very experienced and took great care of my pup even providing pictures and updates. Being her first time with a rover I was slightly apprehensive but it couldn’t have gone smoother. The family was very attentive!”

“Andrew and Adva were fantastic with my older pup-they helped her manage her mobility issues, took her for lots of slow, easy walks, and kept her comfortable with constant company. They sent daily updates and photos too. Andrew and Adva put me at ease right away; they are kind, calm, and flexible. I didn't feel apprehensive about leaving my senior dog for five days. I will absolutely request them again!”
