“Aidan always takes the best care of our pups while we are away!! Very attentive, excellent communication, so helpful. Would absolutely recommend and plan to use again when needed.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, since I was 13yrs old. We always kept a dog growing up which made me fall in love with them. I’m currently open and available anytime between 9:30am-4:00pm and 5:30p-9:00p. Monday-Friday and I’m available from 9am-9pm Saturday and Sunday. I can also be on a need be schedule as well. I have a small friendly Yorke that will keep your dog company while being cared for. I have have nice size bag yard but it is not fully fenced in. I also have a park about a minute away from home walking distance.

About: I’m the designated dog walker for family and friends because I love going on walks, and dogs love coming with me! I grew up with a dog but only have two cats of my own— so I miss having that four-legged friend to go with me! I’d love to take your dog out for a walk/run, or just let them stretch their legs. Cat owners, I’m happy to give your kitties as much or as little space as they need while making sure they feel the love :) I don’t work Fridays or Saturdays, so I am free to help anytime then! Definitely looking to fill my Fridays up with some time outside, and I’d love to take your dog with me - or check in on your cat! I usually walk my parent’s and brother’s dogs (about 80 lbs each) so I know how to handle bigger dogs on leashes who tend to stray from the sidewalk. I can clean up after them, feed them, and give them all the pets! For my cats at home, I love to play with strings or catnip - and can cater to their personality as need be.
About: I have had multiple dogs through out my life. During high school my family had 4 dogs in the house which were 3 Labs and 1 Bully mix. Since my wife and I moved out we currently live with our doghter, Nala. We also recently adopted our cat, Neo who is sweet and loving towards other dogs. I usually take my dog out during the morning around 7am to 8 am, during the afternoon after the dogs have breakfast, once again during 4 or 5pm, and then one final time before we head to bed around 8pm or 9pm. This is a daily routine for Nala and I that we have stuck to since she was a puppy and works great for us over all. We usually walk around the block or play in the background as sometimes she doesn't need to potty and just needs that outside enrichment. I currently have a fenced yard for the back yard if the dogs do plan to play. The only part that is not fenced up is the driveway, but for the most part Nala and I do walk so that she can get some steps in and also so she won't poop too much in the backyard. If I am visiting your home I will come respectfully and walk your dog with Nala or without what ever your preference is and also give a detailed check-in of your dog to put your mind at ease.
“Initially, Ivy came over for a meet and greet and our dogs took to her quickly, which is always a huge sign for me! Since then she’s been accommodating, personable, easy to communicate with and great with our dogs! I’d highly recommend her!”

“Stephen and Amelie are the best! They take excellent care of our babies and our home when we’re away and make us feel completely comfortable when we need to travel without the pups. Our dogs love them too!”

My approach is calm, balanced, and consistent, following your routines closely so pets feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed. I treat every dog with respect, giving them confidence and happiness while you’re away. I currently offer part-time dog sitting and walking, with availability continuing to expand as my Rover schedule grows.

About: Hey there, I’m Giovanni! I'm a pet-loving Midwesterner with a solid track record caring for both dogs and cats. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously by creating a calm, safe, and genuinely caring environment wherever they’re most comfortable. What sets me apart is the level of attention and consistency I’m able to provide. Since I work remotely, I’m able to spend real, quality time with your pet and pick up on their habits, energy levels, and needs. I’m comfortable adapting to different personalities, whether that’s an energetic dog who needs plenty of exercise or a more reserved pet who just wants a calm presence nearby. I’m also attentive to routines, medications, and any specific care instructions, and I take pride in being reliable and communicative. On top of that, I genuinely enjoy photographing the pets I care for, so you’ll often receive a few thoughtful, candid shots that capture their personality. Something special you can keep beyond the booking. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine since I work remotely. I’m able to be present throughout the day, which means your pet gets consistent attention, care, and companionship instead of just quick visits. Whether it’s drop-ins, walks, or staying in your home, I can easily adapt my schedule to match your pet’s needs and routine. I also make it a point to send regular photo and text updates so you always know how things are going. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping everything as close to their normal routine as possible. I follow feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific instructions you provide to help your pet feel comfortable and secure. I’m mindful of creating a calm environment and paying attention to each pet’s behavior and needs. Communication is important to me, so you can expect consistent updates and transparency while you’re away.
“Shelby was amazing with our little guy!! We had just moved to the area and our dog Charlie was having a tough time adjusting. We were nervous to leave him with someone new in a new house, but Shelby saved the day! We could tell from the pics that he was loving every second of quality time and didn’t miss us one bit. Shelby is the greatest and a total lifesaver!”


“Cindy took great care of our dog and sent great pictures of him playing. I feel confident that she loved and cared for him just as we would have. We will be using her again!”

About: I often take care of my mom’s senior dog. He requires a lot of attention due to his health and getting around. I love to be an assistant to him. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays and I am often free during the weekends. I can make sure I have enough time available for any of your needs. I live in a pet friendly apartment. I don’t live near any busy streets and can take a dog on a nice stroll around my neighborhood. I can keep animals in crates, if requested.
“Jen took great care of our cats. She is so sweet and spent quality time with our pets. Her notes were very detailed and we loved the pictures she shared with us. We will definitely book Jen again!”

Silver Spring pet parents share their Rover experiences
Yolanda was amazing with our three high energy dogs! When we first met her and her husband, we could tell right away they were great people and our dogs took right to them. Even our dog that is sometimes shy around new people seemed completely at ease with them. She was available on short notice and took lots of great photos of the first visit. Our dogs looked very happy and relaxed. We would definitely recommend Yolanda!

Cyen took care of my cats while I was away. I had a long manual and Cyen actually took time to read and performed the task. I was worried in the beginning since it was my first time using her service, but it went away on the first day. Would love to hire her again in the future!
