“Mayu loves getting dropped off to Atticia’s for daycare. She’s walked, fed, rested, and loved all day and comes home ready to knock out. I’m also so happy Mayu has a dog friend with Aurora- I think it’s really helped with her manners and socialization skills. Thank you for all you do, Atticia!”


“Awesome! He really helped me out when I was in a bind. Great with communication, following care instructions, and just being patient with my puppy. I will be sending Otis back to him when I need his help.”

“Danielle is fantastic! She was incredibly responsive while taking care of my pup, Charlie. Charlie seemed as excited and happy when I picked him up as when I dropped him off. Thank you for all your help, Danielle!”

About: My name is Dave, A mobile gym for the dogs, and make sure they get more than enough exercise. Generally I do group sessions with pups and have them socialize/play. Although I do 1 on 1 sessions as well! I love dogs, cats, and all animals. I grew up with a half black lab half rottweiler. I'll treat your animals as if they were my own. My availability is open during most weeks. Please contact me with any other question you may have. I’m currently working weekends and have open availability during the week between 10am-6pm. I’ll have plenty of time during the day to take animals on walks to local parks. After going over with the pet owners on their animal/s behaviors, I follow their guidelines on how to take care of the pet/s best. Going on walks, playing in parks, or just keeping the animals company in home.
“My pup has done daycare with Jason three times now and she runs up to his front door excited each time. Jason shares photos and videos each day and maps of their walks and bathroom breaks. He’s a great communicator and it’s so comforting to leave my (big) dog with him when I’m at work knowing she’s fully taken care of. Can’t recommend him enough!”


“Dayna agreed to take my 1 year old Shih Tzu, Jack on a last minute basis while I worked a few overnight shifts and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable leaving him with her and Paul. She sent me photo updates throughout the evening and Jack honestly looked right at home! I can’t say enough good things about them- Thank you so much Dayna, Paul, Pumpkin and Louie!!”

“Ange was so wonderful with Zazu! Super punctual and communicative. Zazu was so excited to see Ange day two of being minded as she clearly treated him so well. Couldn't recommend Ange more highly and I will definitely request Ange's skills and talents again.”

“Love Yaidesky and so did my Golden pup! Yaidesky came to my rescue when I had to find a reliable sitter on a super short notice, she is so responsive, and I totally appreciate that! It’s such a relief to know she’s there for us and our pup when we need a trusted human to care for our dog :)”

“Robert took our pup in for the day with a last-minute booking and she had a great time! We picked her up happy and healthy, and Robert sent updates and pics throughout the day. Would return in the future!”

“Jess is absolutely great . She was able to accommodate to our last-minute request for daycare for our dog Bruno and was very understanding of our dog’s needs. She kept sending pictures and updates which gave us piece of mind during these times when our dog needs to be monitored. We’re looking forward for Bruno’s next boarding stay with Jess.”


“Daria was amazing! She sent us tons of pictures of Dakiti throughout the day, and he looked so happy in every single one. She and Kova were the perfect match for Dakiti's energy, exactly what he needed. We can't thank Daria enough, and we'll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Tianyue was wonderful with my dog! Very caring, attentive, and easy to communicate with. I felt comfortable leaving my pup in their care and would definitely book again. Highly recommend!”


“Emily is an incredible sitter and we feel lucky to have found her. Our boy is still a puppy and she knew just how to handle him. It’s great to pick him up and see how happy he is and how many fun adventures Emelly has taken him on throughout the day. We really trust Emelly and highly recommend her.”

“Erin was absolutely amazing with Milo! I felt confident leaving my puppy with her because I knew he was in good hands. Such a great experience for my first time booking on Rover!”

About: I'm tidy and a non-smoker. I have held several continuous pet sitting jobs over the past 20 years. I grew up with an 100 lb black lab/hound mix and more recently, a 6lb Yorkie that lives with my family in the DC area. Being a pet sitter before, I have experience caring for all various sizes and behaviors. I find it's best to care for them in their home environment where they are most comfortable and I can also help bring in the mail, water plants, etc. I’m also happy to board at my home. I look forward to meeting and caring for your pets! Feel free to ask any questions! I work from home and like to mimic the exact routine set by owners. I go on walks around the city daily whether with a cup of coffee in hand in the mornings or evening post work stroll so easily take dogs along on those walks. I ask that owners leave detailed instructions on behavior, feeding and, overall care routine. Please also be available via text in case of any questions. Please ensure all instructions are clear. Thank you!
“Mulani had a fun day with William and his dogs! William communicated very good with me throughout the day and sent lots of pictures to keep me updated. I will definitely be booking with him again”


About: I enjoy meeting new animals and have 10+ years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. Spending time with neighborhood pups has been a real joy, and I've looked after dogs of all sizes, from tiny breeds to gentle giants. My goal is always to build a caring, trusting relationship with both the animals and their humans. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family soon! I have a hybrid desk job. For overnight care, I am best matched with pets who can be left alone during my "in-office" day, usually once a week. Your pet’s health, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. That said, every pup is unique, so I’ll rely on you to share what works best for their routine, needs, and personality.

I reached out to William at the last minute the night before I needed care in a pinch. He was responsive and asked thoughtful questions as we made our plans, and made drop off and pickup easy. More importantly, he shared wonderful updates throughout the day on how well my dog was doing, and I think his demeanor and confidence with my sometimes anxious and barky dog put him at ease so that he had a wonderful day socializing with other dogs. I would absolutely book with William again!

Upasna Aunty is truly the best. From day one, she’s made me feel completely comfortable leaving my Gemeni with her, and that peace of mind is priceless. She’s so caring, patient, and present, and you can tell she genuinely loves every dog she looks after. I absolutely love getting updates throughout the day—it makes me feel like I’m still a part of Gemeni’s day even when I’m away. She’s always quick to communicate, flexible with timings, and goes out of her way to make things easy. The biggest sign for me is how excited Gemeni gets when she sees her. She runs in without looking back, and that tells me everything I need to know. I never have to wonder if ahe’s being cared for or loved because I know he is. It’s such a relief to have someone I trust so much with her, and I’m incredibly grateful we found her.

Haley was an AMAZING sitter for our 8 week old puppy, and I would totally trust her to watch him in the future. She did so well with him despite his very young age and was open to all my instructions for his care ❤️ She was so easy to contact and convenient for a Southie pup. She had great communication as well throughout the day which left me feeling very confident in my puppy’s care as a new dog mommy 😉. Thank you, Haley!!

Teddy lover staying with Lauren for day care! I will definitely be using her again on a regular basis for my long shifts. She always responded so quickly and had pictures of Teddy just hanging out or on their walks. I love that she is close to a park so Teddy can walk around some green space and not always on the busy hot city sidewalks. Thanks Lauren!

Laine took care of Ziggy two days in a row and it was a blast! Ziggy loved being back to Laine's place every time. I especially appreciate Laine for walking Ziggy during her stay. I could tell Ziggy got what she needed. We'll be back and absolutely recommend Laine for dog sitting and walking.

Kate is a great sitter and took great care of Charlie. She responded to a last minute request which really helped us out in a pinch. She took excellent care of Charlie, and was extra careful with him as he recovers from a knee injury that we’ve been dealing with. I wish all sitters were as responsive, thoughtful, and careful as Kate. 10/10, will rebook!
