About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals and truly enjoy caring for both dogs and cats. I have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines. Whether your pet loves to play, go on walks, cuddle, or simply relax in a quiet space, I’ll provide patient, attentive, and loving care tailored to them. My priority is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and happy while giving owners peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in caring hands. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs daytime companionship, overnight care, walks, feeding, playtime, or medication, I can accommodate their routine and make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. I strive to be reliable, responsive, and flexible to meet both your schedule and your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my highest priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment where dogs and cats can feel safe, relaxed, and loved. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions to ensure they receive personalized care. I believe in open communication and will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your pet’s stay, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in caring and dependable hands. Every pet is treated with patience, kindness, and the same love and respect I would give my own.

About: I treat every pet as if they were my own. As a previous dedicated dog owner ourselves (we recently lost our German shepherd) I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. Your pet won’t just receive food, water, and walks, they’ll get attention, affection, playtime, and a comfortable home environment where they can feel safe and loved. I know how much peace of mind matters when you’re away, so I provide regular updates, photos, and clear communication throughout your pet’s stay. My goal is simple: for your pet to have such a great time that they’re excited to come back for their next visit. I currently work from home full time and my husband and I are also generally home during the weekends as well! We have a ton of time to Pets in our home are treated like family. We follow their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks (as energy permits), playtime, medications, and any other special instructions. Whether your pet loves playing, exploring, or curling up for a nap, we make sure they receive the care and companionship they need while you’re away.

“Michael does such a great job watching Sully, and I always feel very comfortable leaving her with him! Sully always returns happy and tired from a long day of playing and attention - highly recommend Michael!”

“Grette was super with our little pup for Doggy Day Care -- she knows just what your pup needs and she took our very active 6 month old pup for a long walk so he was really chill when he came home.”

About: As a child, I grew up in a household with multiple dogs around at all times. I have cared for and trained dogs of all sizes. My fiance and I would love to be around more dogs as we aren’t able to have one of our own yet! We only have experience with dogs at this time but we welcome cats as well! My boyfriend and I work from home during the week and are generally available to care on Friday and the weekend! We don’t have children so our schedules are very flexible. We are very attentive, affectionate, and responsive to the needs of our pets. We make sure to go on frequent walks and adventures around the park to remain an active and fun place for pets!

About: Host with the most.....we love to offer five star hotel hospitality to our guest pups for tail wags, tricks for treats and park trails to explore. And for our older guests we have story time, nap time, puppy massages and quiet time. Whatever they need and more for first time books and repeat customers we have special offers for grooming. I am available all throughout the day because I work at home. With flexibility I set a schedule based on the needs of the guest and incorporate them into our daily lifestyle. We offer follow up calls, pictures, check ins and special care to each guest we host and home we visit to offer reassurance that your beloved family member is in good care.

“Caleb was absolutely fantastic with my pup Avi, who, at 15, is very sweet but can be a bit stubborn. But he took to Caleb immediately, following behind him with his tail a-wagging! In addition to being so great with my dog, Caleb was incredibly responsive, polite, and had great energy.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have 18 years of hands-on experience caring for them with patience, love, and responsibility. I’m naturally empathetic and compassionate toward animals, and I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. While I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to caring for dogs. I have experience with daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, and understanding each dog’s unique personality, habits, and needs. Having a senior pup of my own, I’m especially attentive to the patience, comfort, and extra care that older dogs may need. I’ll treat your pup with the same kindness, attention, and respect I’ve always given my own dogs. I’m committed to creating a safe, positive, and loving environment while keeping you updated so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the week. I work from home and am available most days, making it easy for me to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship whenever needed. I do have an online class from 1 PM to 3 PM, but I am still home and able to work around that schedule. Outside of that time, my availability is very open, and I’m happy to adjust my routine to meet each pet’s needs. I have a comfortable, pet-friendly apartment where your dog can feel safe and relaxed. I’m available throughout the day to provide attention, playtime, walks, and companionship. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine, including feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, and any specific care instructions. I can also accommodate crate-trained dogs if needed and make sure your pup has a calm and loving environment during their stay.

About: I have been a volunteer at the Humane Rescue Alliance for the past 3 years. I am the person that talks to all animals, flowers, plants etc. My two pups were rescues, there human had died. I saw them on Facebook, went to the petstore and came home with two papilions! They were 8 & 9 years old, the littiest things. My heart! They lived the best life up until the day they left us. After that I started at the shelter helping everyone else get the same chance. I have learned so much about behavior and care. I am trained in all departments except the spay and neuter. I am also 1/2 way complete Fearless Shelter Training Cert, this is what staff recieve for cats and dogs. I am currently looking for a job and volunteering with the Humane Rescue Alliance and the American Red Cross. I would love to have a pet, but I know I can't commit to one at the moment, so I enjoy helping care for animals whenever possible. My schedule is flexible. I live in a secure condo building with a large private patio and easy access to a shaded grassy area. I am just a few blocks from Rock Creek Park and Pierce Mill, so there are plenty of places to enjoy the outdoors. I will be the one caring for your pet. Your pet will have my full attention while staying with me.

“Cynthia was a wonderful host and Charlie had a fantastic day playing with her dog Larry! We will definitely return”

“Bill and his girlfriend were AMAZING last minute sitters for my 4 month pup, Aries! Aries is FULL of energy and has a little bit of separation anxiety - he's also not 100% potty trained when he's anxious. But Bill and his girlfriend made sure to keep Aries safe and comfortable and fully played so he didn't have any accidents. That's not to mention that the day of his booking (which, by the way, I booked 7 hours in advance lol, it was a mess) my car got a tire and I had to ask Bill to keep Aries 4 hours past the original booking time. They sent me pictures all day and were gracious, transparent, and kind. Not to mention when I finally showed up for pickup (without warning!) Aries was out on a walk. He was SO happy when I picked him up! Absolutely will rebook and highly recommend.”

“Joey did a fantastic job to take great care of my 7-year-old labrador who had a bit of separation anxiety. I am so grateful with Joey to accept the last minute request after a brief meet up. I would love to use his services again and highly recommend him. Thanks again Joey for your flexibility and patience with Meimei!”

About: DOGGY DAY CARE [only 1 spot avail. for cat-friendly small/medium sized dogs] I’ve been caring for my family’s dogs since I was a teenager, and over the years, I’ve developed a deep understanding of dog body language and their unique needs. I’m confident working with dogs of all ages, and I have hands-on experience with training, including basic commands and leash manners. What truly sets me apart is my patience and calm approach—whether I’m working with an energetic puppy or a senior dog who needs a little extra care, I always tailor my approach to make sure every pup feels safe, loved, and understood. I also have experience with reptiles and small animals—from feeding routines to habitat care. If you have non-traditional pets at home, I’m happy to assist with them too!” I currently work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to each pet. I’m able to provide the attention they deserve and can easily accommodate last-minute bookings or changes. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals—it’s something I look forward to every day. When caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment tailored to each pet’s unique needs. Here’s how I approach pet care in both settings: In My Home: • Safe and Welcoming Environment: I ensure my home is pet-friendly, removing any potential hazards and providing cozy spaces for rest and play. • Consistent Routine: I maintain a regular schedule for feeding, exercise, and playtime to help pets feel secure and reduce anxiety. • Personalized Attention: Understanding that each pet has its own personality and preferences, I adapt activities and interactions to suit their individual needs. In Client’s Home: • Respect for Home and Rules: I adhere strictly to the homeowner’s guidelines, ensuring pets follow their usual routines and house rules. • Home Security: Before leaving, I double-check that all doors, windows, and, if applicable, fence gates are securely closed to keep pets safe and maintain home security. • Emergency Preparedness: I keep a list of emergency contacts, including the pet’s regular veterinarian and the nearest animal hospital, to act swiftly if any health issues arise. In both scenarios, I focus on providing loving care and companionship, ensuring pets are happy, healthy, and comfortable in their surroundings.
