“One of a kind! Kendall is incredibly reliable and a wonderful communicator. We felt our animals were in good hands the entire week. Last minute our cat got an infection and she didn’t bat an eye to administering his medication daily. Our cats were both relaxed and happy when we got home, plus the dishes were done and the house was tidy!”

“Emily stayed with our pup while we were away for our first anniversary trip. She is, without a doubt, the best sitter we have ever had for Kobe. Not only did she send pictures every day, she took him on walks at the park, monitored his eating habits, brought in our mail, and came to the rescue when the breaker flipped and AC went out. We came home to a calm and happy pup! We are so grateful for her and trust she’ll be great with your pets too. Kobe can’t wait until he sees her again 🥰”

About: I have personal experience taking care of (walking, bathing, feeding, enrichment, training) all animals and love to do it. Professionally, I’ve worked at doggy daycares, other dog-walking and pet-sitting apps, and volunteered to assist with puppy births. My experience is mostly with dogs; however, I have taken care of cats and more! I work a full-time job, but my hours are flexible which means I have days I am in-office or at home and I do not work weekends. It is very easy for me to leave work to provide pet care and return later that day or make-up hours later in the week. I am very gentle with animals and the safety of pets and those around them comes first - always. I plan to keep the pet comfortable and enriched. It is very easy to follow a schedule and routine for medications, bathroom breaks, bedtimes, and playtime. I pay close attention to details and take the time to learn pet behaviors to ensure they get the best care.

About: I grew up in a multi-cat household and now own 5 cats between my parents and myself! There's no kitty I can't handle - from super social, to shy, to very sassy, I'm known to be able to form a bond with every cat that comes into my care. I'm also a lover of all animals, I owned fish and lizards and have spent a lot of time helping walk and take care of my family's dogs. My animals are my life, and I've been on Rover for almost four years now! I also have a lot of experience working for Happy Cats Concierge LLC in Reston, VA, where I provided a range of services for cats of various quantities, ages, and personalities. Whether your furry friend needs a playmate, cuddle buddy, bodyguard, or just someone to stop by for food and medicine - I got you! My schedule is open and my day-to-day is flexible! Any specific dates I’m unavailable will be reflected on my calendar. Please message me with any other scheduling questions. Inside, outside, leash or no leash, crate, etc., I will honor the owner's wishes for where their furry friend needs to be spending their time. I value consistent routines and attentiveness while your pet is in my care. All of my services will be based in the client's home or neighborhood.

“Andrew was wonderful with our Mega Dane , Max and older girl, Bella. He was dependable and cognizant of the our fur babies’ needs. The house was neat and straight on our return. The pups enjoyed their activities with him and were disappointed when he didn’t show up the next day! Max runs to the door when I ask where’s Andrew! It was a very positive experience and we will definitely ask for his help again. Thank you Andrew.”

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is that I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely love animals. I have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I also frequently pet sit for family members, which has given me experience caring for different pets with their own personalities and routines. Whether it’s going on walks, playing, feeding, or just giving them attention, I always treat every pet like they’re my own. I'm currently a student and work part-time, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make time for pet care! Although I don't live with my dog anymore, I'm used to balancing my responsibilities and making time for feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they're in my care. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, so I do my best to follow the owner's instructions closely. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or theirs, I make sure they have fresh water, regular meals, plenty of attention, and a clean, safe environment. I also respect each pet's boundaries and make sure they feel comfortable with me!

He left our home in the same good condition he found it, and most importantly, our pets were happy and well cared for. He’s trustworthy and reliable, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible sitter.”

“Eddie was fabulous. We were gone for a week and when we returned the house was in perfect shape and the dogs were happy. He sent lots of welcome communication, cared for one of our dogs with an injury, and even watered the outside plants when they looked dry! He's among the best dog sitters we've had and we hope to rebook.”

Emily did an outstanding job dog sitting for us! She was professional, friendly, and communicative throughout her stay. She seems to really understand our quirky senior hound. We returned home to a spotless house and a very calm dog. I highly recommend Emily!

Isabelle was wonderful with Maverick while staying at my home for nearly two weeks! She gave him lots of love and attention, took him on regular walks, played with him often, and helped him socialize with other dogs. It was great knowing Maverick was happy, getting plenty of attention, and in such good hands while I was away. I really appreciate the care she gave him and the effort she made to keep him active and entertained. I would absolutely hire Isabelle again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!

Conrad went above and beyond with taking care of our two dogs! Super responsive, friendly, careful with their needs (1 is a reactive dog, other has anxiety and is accident prone). When my dog started limping mid-stay, Conrad made sure to notify me and follow instructions perfectly and administer medication. I felt very comfortable knowing that Conrad was taking care of them diligently, ensuring they had the love, company, and support they needed when we were away for 3 days.

There are no words to describe how fabulous Kelly is. In a way it’s sad because my cats are very sad when I come home and they stand at the door and they watch for her to come back, but they’re just gonna have to get over that until we go away again.
