“Ren, Vicki, and their wonderful family took amazing care of our beagle Andy while we were away for two weeks. As always, Andy had a blast – we could tell from the regular updates and adorable pictures they sent us. It’s such a relief knowing he’s in such loving and capable hands. We’ll definitely be choosing them again!”


“Great experience leaving Oliver with their family. The two of them were conscientious and considerate about understanding Oliver's needs and ensuring that I felt comfortable leaving him in their care while I was out of town. I wouldn't hesitate to leave Oliver with them again!”


“Edgar was able to provide a loving and non-hectic environment for our older dog. The environment is spacious and accommodating. His dog is great with other dogs, and they were able to coexist wonderfully. He was able to accommodate last minute from another sitter needing to cancel last minute (sorry, thank you), but I intend to give more notice next time we decide to have Edgar provide care for our dog when we’re away. Thank you again!”



“Galen was great! She watched our anxious and reactive pup for the weekend. She was very patient, calm and knowledgeable and was able to work with our pup over the weekend and make him comfortable! She was communicative and professional. Highly Recommend!”


“Our dog had such a good time at Kerri’s house. She was so well cared for and loved and got so much fun attention as well as walks! I could see from the photos how much fun she was having. Thanks. Kerri!”


“Yoshiko was absolutely amazing! We left our 3 month old kitten with her for the first time for 5 days and every day she sent us photos and updates to make sure we were comfortable and could enjoy our vacation! I will absolutely book her again!!”


“Cristina was so fantastic to work with. She was communicative, gave us pics and updates while we were away, and provided a safe home for our Great Dane while we were away. We would definitely use her again in the future!”


“Ivan was absolutely wonderful. Sent a lot of photos and updates of my pup and she looked like she had a great time with him! Definitely recommend.”


“Karen took great care of our dog Henry. She was always quick to respond and was very flexible when our flight home was cancelled last minute. We will definitely be reaching out to Karen going forward. Five stars!”


“Lilian is an extremely excellent dog sitter. I'm so happy to have found her so my dog Ace could be in good hands. She has a large yard for them to run around in. And there's plenty of room inside for them too. I definitely found a great person.”



“Really, my rating should be 11. I knew Mona was in good hands from our meet and greet. She had a great time at "camp" as I knew she would. I'm sure she would LOVE to have 10 siblings at home to play with! I was afraid she wouldn't want to come home. I could not have felt more comfortable with the whole experience. We'll be back!”


“There was good communication with Ron about Nestlé’s likes and needs. Ron also asked questions to learn ways to help make Nestlé feel at home and comfortable. I received daily photos and updates and I think he was loved and petted and became attached.”



“Kevin took great care of my dog over the holiday weekend! Communication was smooth, and my dog came home happy and well cared for. I’d definitely book with them again!”


“Ana was very communicative and sent great pictures of Peanut, and checked in with us when she had questions. Appreciate it! She has a beautiful home and sweet dogs.”


“Shasta and her daughter were so great with Rue. The communication was amazing and you could really tell that Rue was getting the best care and attention from them.”



“Min took excellent care of Marbury. He kept us regularly updated and Marbury clearly loved him. Would absolutely book again and highly recommend!”


About: I have 10 years of professional dog walking, home sitting, and pet care. I look forward to introducing your furry friend to our mild mannered yellow lab who will entertain them for hours. Walks are facilitated on a mixture of surfaces and distances from a long 1 hour circle to an adventure in the woods, your dog will enjoy the squirls, deer, foxes and gees that we see on a regular occasion. The dogs and I often pick up a stick to play with along the way. Morning and evening walks are routine with a trip to the soccer field, local dog park or open field for Frisbee fun and tennis ball target practice in heavy rotation. With a fun dog to keep your furry friend occupied in-between walks, we can personalize your sleeping experience with either inside a large crate we provide or next to blankets or toys you bring from home. Its customized to your dogs needs.

“I cannot express how incredible Jorge is!!! Ive used Jorge exclusively for boarding since moving to the area and have always known that Chloe has been in incredible hands!

Mansi C.
“Best Rover Experience Ever! Mansi and her family are truly exceptional caretakers. From the moment we drop off our pup, we know she's in loving, capable hands. They’re incredibly friendly, responsive, and consistently go above and beyond—sending multiple photo and video updates throughout the day, along with a detailed “doggy intake/output” summary that’s both helpful and reassuring. Their own small dog is a perfect playmate for our puppy, Ginger, and it’s clear they’ve created a warm, welcoming environment. In fact, the excitement is undeniable—our pup’s tail starts wagging like crazy as soon as we pull up to their house! It’s always a happy, tail-wagging day at Mansi’s. We couldn’t ask for a better Rover sitter!”

Rockville pet parents share their Rover experiences
Chao was wonderful! She is supper kind, responsive , and accommodating. Mellow is a very shy cat and had never been around other cats before. He had an extremely difficult time adjusting to the other cats that were boarding at the same time as him. Thankfully , Chao accommodated mellow by putting him In a separate room in the house. She sent us pictures daily and updates on how he was doing.

As always, Christopher took great care of my two dogs. I enjoyed my vacation because he always kept me informed and sent plenty of photos and updates.

This was my first time I had left my dog with John and his family. He was very warm and friendly. John kept in touch with me often and sent photos of my dog as well while I was out of town. I felt reassured that my dog was in good hands 😊

Ozzie had a great time with Joseph and Abi. They were very responsive and flexible and made it easy to book the stay. I would definitely take Ozzie there again!

Courtney was amazing with Cosmo. She was extremely kind and patient, and sent lots of updates on how Cosmo was doing. I would definitely recommend her to others.

Christopher & Heidy took great care of Maggie and were easy to arrange care with. Thank you very much for your help - Maggie enjoyed her time w/ you.

Briana took great care of my dog. I received daily photos and updates, and I knew my pup was well-fed, exercised, and in good hands the entire time. I highly recommend!

Min took excellent care of Marbury. He kept us regularly updated and Marbury clearly loved him. Would absolutely book again and highly recommend!

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.

Theresa was great and took good care of our special needs dog. She made everything incredibly easy and we will definitely book again!!
Patricia was easy to communicate with. She kept us updated on Ollie. Will definitely use her services again.

Chris was a great dog sitter again! I can tell my dog had a great time and he was always very responsive!

Emily was lovely! Melly warmed up to her immediately. She kept us Updated throughout Melly's stay at her place, which was perfect for us and our pup! We look forward to working with her again!

Really great experience. They kept us posted and provided pictures of my dog while we were away. They were sweet and were great with our shy dog with separation anxiety.

Shasta was absolutely wonderful with our dog Charles! She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures during his one week stay with her - and he looked so happy in every photo! She went above and beyond in caring for him even offering to give him her own peanut butter after I forgot to pack his. Highly recommend to others - I know we'll be booking with her again the next time we need a Rover!

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!

Elena was a pleasure to work with and very dependable. I felt beyond comfortable having her watch my dog. I highly recommend her services!
