Once again, Christian knocked it out of the park! Jo Jo and Corduroy were thrilled to learn they were going back to their friend’s house today and they can’t wait to go back. Thank you for your excellent care today, Christian!

Aroa took great care of my four month old puppy while I was in the office. I got multiple check-ins and pictures throughout the day and I could tell from my pup’s body language that she was content and comfortable. Thank you!!!

About: My husband Galen and I have both had dogs since we were in our teens. We are both experienced in caring and loving for our pups. As a couple we have owned pets together for 13 years. We are a US Air Force Family and have been stationed in DC for the past six years. We love how the community is a dog centric town!! Galen is full remote, meaning your pup will never be alone. We currently have a bulldog named Burrito. Our miniature american eskimo named Mojo unfortunately crossed the rainbow bridge in December 2024. I love our dogs so much I know how nerve-racking it can be to leave your BFF to a stranger. I promise I’ll provide your pet the love and attention they want or need as if they were my own. My husband is full remote and I unfortunately am back in the office full time. Galen will be home with the pups all day. I do an early morning walk and an after work walk while he does multiple midday walks. In the evenings we both are able to take the pups on long walks. We monitor any bones given and are in close proximity during feeding time. We also continuously reinforce good behaviors by pets, praise, and treats if you allow. We only accept one dog at a time. Pups are allowed on the couch. Bundy Dog Park is across the street, if you allow for additional exercise. Your dog will receive lots of pets, praise and love while in our home!

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I have for animals. I treat every pet like they’re my own baby, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, so I always make it my priority to give them attention, affection, and gentle care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel loved, safe, and comfortable. I make time throughout my day for feeding schedules, playtime, litter box cleaning, cuddles, and giving pets attention so they never feel ignored or lonely. I’m very organized and dependable, so I’m able to stick to each cat’s routine and provide consistent care, updates, and affection throughout the week. I am currently a full time student but I am home from school so I am fully free When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, a clean litter box, playtime, affection, and a calm environment where they feel safe and comfortable. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs so I can make sure they are happy, healthy, and well cared for while their owner is away. I’m very respectful of both the pet and the home, and I believe trust, communication, and reliability are extremely important. I also provide updates and photos for reassurance so owners can feel at ease knowing their fur baby is in loving hands. If your babies were to come to my House then I have a quiet home and space and I also have a dog park for play time

Izzy and Brian are fantastic sitters. Very accommodating with drop off and pick up times, which is great for day trips (esp if we hit bad traffic or end up leaving later than originally planned). They send photos and videos regularly! Dzov LOVES his friend Jax and Ziggy and is always pooped out from playing so hard with those two all day. They're always my first go-to for day care/overnight stays because they're reliable, friendly, and can handle my big doggo!

About: I’ve had a dog growing up and always loved being around animals. I have lots of experience with dogs sitting and walking and making sure your dog will have a great time. From young to old and small to big. Have a look at the pictures in my profile. Would love to meet your dog :) I’m new to the city and I have plenty of time to play with your pups. Very flexible schedule at the moment. Also available weekends and late at night if needed. I live in an apartment with close proximity to the MBT and two dog parks. I am an active person, there is lots of outdoor time guaranteed. Also happy to come over to your place to care for your dog :)

About: I have grown up around animals and have years of experience caring for a variety of breeds and temperaments. Whether it’s high-energy puppies who need a long walk or senior dogs who just want a quiet companion, I pride myself on being attentive to their specific needs. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, basic grooming, and ensuring every pet feels safe and loved while their owners are away. As a university student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of quality time to your pets. I am primarily available for boarding on weekends and have open availability on weekday afternoons after 2:00 PM. My routine allows for consistent potty breaks, midday play sessions, and plenty of evening attention to keep your pet happy and engaged Safety is my top priority. When pets are in my care, I maintain a clean, hazard-free environment and always follow the owner’s specific instructions regarding exercise and diet. For home visits, I am extremely respectful of your space and keep a close eye on your pet at all times. I am happy to provide regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your 'fur baby' is in good hands.

Holly was absolutely amazing with Stella! Stella can be incredibly nervous in new environments, but Holly showed so much patience and gentle care to help her settle in. She truly went above and beyond to make Stella feel safe, comfortable, and loved. It is incredible to find someone who understands anxious dogs so well. We would definitely be booking with Holly again when we are in town—highly recommend!

About: Growing up with four very different dogs — two spirited Shibas, a loyal Thai Ridgeback, and a gentle giant Fila Brasileiro — taught me that every dog has their own personality, routine, and love language. I’m also currently raising my own puppy, Bailey, a playful Golden Retriever–Husky mix, so I understand firsthand the patience, structure, and attention dogs need each day — especially puppies and active breeds. 🐾 I work a flexible hybrid schedule and spend most of my time at home, so your pup will have plenty of attention, outdoor breaks, playtime, and company throughout the day. I live in a pet-friendly apartment building with a secure rooftop dog area, and my neighborhood is calm and walkable for relaxed sniff walks and potty breaks. I always prioritize safety, trust, and communication. I’ll follow your dog’s routine carefully, supervise walks/playtime closely, and send regular photo updates so you feel connected while away. 📸🐶 Whether your dog loves cozy naps, playful adventures, or simply having company nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home. 🤍 I’m currently interning 4 days a week, with only 2 of those days spent in the office — and even then, just for about 5 hours. That means I’m home plenty to give pups attention, playtime, outdoor breaks, and company throughout the day! On my remote days and weekends, I’m fully available for walks, cuddles, and all the tail-wagging adventures. Whether your dog loves a structured routine or a relaxing day of naps and snuggles, I make sure their schedule feels comfortable and consistent while you’re away. 🐾 I’m currently home every day, which means your pup will have plenty of attention, outdoor breaks, playtime, and company throughout the day, every day. 🐾

This was my first time using rover, and I was so lucky to find Yahaira! I had an emergency I needed to leave 2 weeks for, and am usually very nervous finding people I trust to watch my pup. I felt totally comfortable with Yahaira— she updated with pictures, sent updates, and gave him the affection and attention a typically anxious pup like him needs when I’m gone! He felt really comfortable with her too, and you can tell she genuinely cares about the animals. I would definitely rebook her. You can trust her with your animals 100%!!! Grateful

ABOVE AND BEYOND! Elliot and his partner Lorraine were simply the BEST!!! Our little baby, Yuzu, 12 months old, had never been out of our care till we had to leave him either alone for a day, or much better, to drop him off with Elliot and Lorraine, in order to drop off our daughter for I-Day at the U.S. Naval Academy. Elliot and Lorraine to the rescue! Not only did they watch Yuzu for over 14 hours in their lovely Georgetown home, Elliot even came to pick him up at 5:30 in the morning! They sent us pictures throughout the day, reassuring us of Yuzu's well being. By the end of the day, it was clear that we made the right choice for Daycare, evident by Yuzu being very content socializing with their two very well-behaved babies, Bronte, and Coogee, a few years older than Yuzu, as well as another guest dog. We can't thank you guys enough and really hope to depend on you in the future to care for Yuzu from time to time! We think Yuzu will think of it like a fun day out instead of missing Mommy and Daddy all day!
