“Lunas stay with Sophia was amazing! Sophia was flexible with timing. Sophia was extremely responsive and we loved getting daily pictures and updates on Luna! Would highly recommend and we will Definitely be using Sophia again! She is the best!”


“The best way I can describe Lina's boarding is by saying my dog Josie is always sad to leave her house and her family, and starts wagging her tail whenever we get to her neighborhood!”

“This is the second multi night stay we’ve booked with Timothy and it was equally as great as the first! Timothy sends lots of great puppy pics and is super responsive. Plus, my pup has a blast! I will definitely keep using Timothy any time we go away.”


“We love Roseline and Zeus! Our dog was in such good company with Roseline’s own pup, and was so spoiled by Roseline! We got photo and video updates every day, and appreciated Roseline’s patience with our dog’s quirks and energy.”


“This was the third time we’ve left our pup with Yoshiko. When we arrived at her building, Hoss was pulling me to her with all his might - what more do you need to know? :)”


“Woyni went above & beyond to make our two pups feel at home and well taken care of while we were out of town. She accommodated our challenging schedule and responded to all of our messages quickly. Thank you so much for keeping our girls happy. We would highly recommend you!”


“Laura iyou are a great dogsitter and so sweet! Laura sent me a lot of pictures and videos of my dog. She kept me informed about my dog health, and activities and she kept record of everything in a little sweet note. :-) My dog had a lot of fun playing in her backyard. I had trouble with my car and she was very flexible with the dropping and pick up time. She is awesome! She was flexible with the pick up time. Definitely I will choose her again!!”


“Pam and her daughter were so great with Pancho. They sent me many pictures and updates, it was obvious he was getting lots of love, attention and fun active time. Highly recommend and hopefully Pancho will get to pay another visit to their place!”


“Rachel was a wonderful host. She suggested having our dogs meet up before my dog's stay which I really appreciated. She was extremely communicative before before and during my dog's stay and sent lots of pictures. Her backyard and setup for guest dogs was absolutely perfect for our 60 pound Bassett Hound. We look forward to the next time we get to have our dog stay with Rachel again.”


“I am so appreciative of Courtney and her husband. Courtney updated me with a photo of my pup within two hours of me dropping her off, and sent frequent updates her entire stay. My pup enjoyed her stay and felt at home. I will definitely book in the future. I would recommend Courtney to anybody.”


“Chris is an amazing dog sitter! I had such a great experience with Chris! He is so nice, friendly, and truly cares about the pets he watches. While I was on vacation, he sent me videos and photos of my dog Isabella, which gave me such peace of mind. Chris took excellent care of her, and when I picked her up she looked happy, relaxed, and refreshed. I will definitely use his services again for dog sitting — he’s amazing! Thanks again Chris!”


“Great experience! Communication was excellent, he responded quickly, kept me updated regularly, and was super nice when it came to Leah’s little clumsy moments (like falling in their pond!). I really appreciated how attentive and caring they were. Highly recommend!”


“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.”


“Chris is excellent. We were unexpectedly delayed getting back into town, and he happily kept Maggie for us until we were able to get back home safely. We cannot thank him enough!”


“Nicole was even better than I hoped. She was very attentive to my aging dog, and went above and beyond in accommodating her and making her feel at home. Even Nicole's dog took care of Bryn, letting her sleep in his bed and letting her drink water before he did. I was worried about choosing an apartment caregiver, but it turned to be perfect - carpeted halls and elevators made it easy for Bryn to get around.”

Rockville dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jorge and his family were wonderful and we are so lucky to have found them. They watched our reactive dog for two weeks and their professionalism, care, regular updates, and pictures/videos gave us a lot of peace mind while we were away. Would 100% recommend and rebook again!

Min was everything you could hope for and more when caring for our dog for a week. I knew right away from his description that our dog would be in good hands. Even still, Min exceeded our expectations, and our dog absolutely loved him. (We were a little worried that our dog wouldn’t want to come home.) Min was excellent in communicating any issues and always asked the right questions. He provided many photos and videos to our delight.

Katherin is/was amazing! We had two sets of dates, with only a few days in between, where we would be traveling outside the country. Being away from our babies for over two weeks is stressful enough and being that far away makes it even more so. But having Katherin to take care of them really put us at ease. And I think the best review was from the dogs who were VERY excited to be back at Katherin's when we dropped them off for the second set of dates. They came back happy and healthy. We got pictures and updates. Katherin was communicative and responded to our texts. She is great and we will leave our babies with her again in the future.

This is our second time leaving our dog, Rocky, with Yuliia. He is an older dog and I know she gives him lots of extra attention to keep him comfortable. Yuliia’s great communication and updates are also so helpful throughout the booking process and while we are away to know how Rocky is doing. Would definitely recommend her as a caring and attentive sitter.

We couldn't be happier with the care Shahrzad provided for our two terriers during our week away. From the very beginning, it was clear she truly loves dogs, she treated ours like her own. They instantly felt secure and comfortable with her, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were gone. Throughout the week, Shahrzad kept us updated with messages and photos, showing just how relaxed and happy our pups were in her care. She went above and beyond, not just with the basics but by genuinely bonding with them. It was clear she understood their personalities and routines, and they came back to us happy, calm, and clearly well loved. We feel incredibly lucky to have found someone so trustworthy and compassionate. Thank you, Shahrzad, for taking such wonderful care of our fur babies!
