Jasmine and Stormi were great with Roxy. Roxy was transitioning between dog foods during her stay and Jasmine handled it like a pro. I would highly recommend Jasmine for your next trip.

Lia was great! Our older and anxious cat was very comfortable with her. We got frequent updates and photos and felt very reassured that our cat was in good hands. Our cat needs daily medication, which Lia also took care of without issues. Highly recommended!

Stephanie and Luis are the absolute best! They provided fantastic care for Toto. The communication was outstanding and frequent. The reassuring updates made my time away completely stress-free. Toto came home incredibly happy and well-cared for. Highly, highly recommend!

This was my first time using Rover, and I was honestly a little nervous. My wife and I had to travel, and we needed someone to take care of our two dogs. Sunny was the best option we found, and I’m so glad we chose her. She was very communicative throughout the entire stay, and it was clear that she treated both of our dogs with so much love and care. She made us feel comfortable and gave us peace of mind while we were away. She has definitely earned a new loyal customer. The next time we need a pet sitter, I’ll feel much more confident knowing our dogs are staying with Sunny. I highly recommend her!

Christian was amazing! Accepted my sitting request with pretty short notice after I found out my roommate wouldn’t be able to watch my dog. She also gladly watched my dog for an extra night than was originally planned when my flight got delayed. She sent me frequent updates and pictures of my dog, and it was obvious he was happy and well taken care of. Would definitely recommend her services and book with her again!

Krista was a great caretaker for Hugo! She was very communicative and proactive. She arranged a pre-stay meet and greet, sent thorough daily updates, and was flexible with pick-up and drop-off times to accommodate travel changes. Hugo had a great time, and so did we on our vacation, knowing that he was in great care!

I genuinely cannot recommend McKinley enough! She is the sweetest, kindest, and most thoughtful sitter I could have ever asked for. From the moment I dropped Hamilton off, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such amazing hands. She sent me daily photos and checked in throughout the day with updates on everything he was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I’ve honestly never seen Hamilton happier. He looked so comfortable, loved, and genuinely excited to be there, I think he was actually a little sad to leave, lol. It was so obvious that McKinley treated him like he was her own, and that meant the world to me. If you’re looking for someone who will truly care for your pet, keep you updated, and go above and beyond, McKinley is the person to book. I would trust her with Hamilton again in a heartbeat and will absolutely be using her in the future. I would 1000% recommend her to anyone looking for the best possible care for their pet!

We had complete peace of mind knowing Memphis was in such loving and capable hands. We are so thankful for them and highly recommend their care to anyone looking for someone they can fully trust.

I recently had my Bella stay with Vania for 5 days. When I booked the appointment which was short notice I was thankful that Vania was will to accommodate me. Vania went above and beyond to provide great care to Bella, this was her 2nd time out of the home and from the time I dropped her off it was a challenge just to get her to indoors. I am thankful to Vania for her wonderful care of Bella and will definitely book with her again in the future.

About: I am a true Capitol Hill dog lover and I have always had a strong passion for animals, mostly for dogs. I have been caring for dogs since I was child, taking care of my mother’s beloved shitzu. Taking care of her helped me acquire basic canine behavior and taught me the responsibility of taking care of a pet. Most recently I raised my own best friend, Gelato an English Bulldog. I gained my breeder experience with Gelato and cared for her and her 6 puppies, until they were rehomed at 8 months. I enjoy taking long walks, which I consider the ultimate stress reliever and best way to exercise. I have no problem getting my hands dirty. I have 20 years of experience in the customer service field and enjoy striving to provide the best experience to my clients. In my personal time I am spending time with my 2 little girls teaching them how to play sports, and of course how to be loving pet owners. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page! I’m currently working part time and will be available to walk most pets during early mornings hours during the week and mid day and evenings during the weekend. I definitely would like to know your pets temperament, and what might scare them. I know they will feel most comfortable at home but if they are with me, I’d like to keep a calm, pet friendly setting for them to be comfortable in.

Joe was great—easy-going and accomodating. My dog had a great time with Joe and two other dogs! He messaged me updates and photos during the 7 days away from our dog, which was very reassuring. Joe even took my dog on a 5 mile run! Will definately book with Joe again. This was the first time using Rover.com, and I highly recommend. I also highly recommend your dog stay with JOE!

Nicole was a wonderful sitter for my Dingles - so much so that I wish I could give her more stars. This was the first time Dingles stayed with Nicole and I was a little apprehensive. But I soon started getting behavioral updates and great pictures. My dog looked happy with her new pack at Nicole’s’. I will certainly use Nicole in the future without any worries.

Jasmile is AMAZING!! Our pup Stella is a repeat guest. She feels right at home staying with Jasmile and gets SO excited when we pull up to her place. Stella has some storm anxiety and Jasmile handled her meds and her quirks when a big storm rolled through during Stella's stay. Jasmile even sat in the bathtub with Stella to make her feel safe <3

Joey was fantastic with my pup. They settled right into a routine with all his favorite activities, including cuddles on the couch, people watching out the window, and visiting the farmers market on the weekend. I was able to enjoy my own vacation knowing that my dog was getting one-on-one attention while I was gone.

Dante and I LOVED Janay and her family! I’m so grateful we found them! Janay was so flexible and kind with a very last minute booking request and clearly looked after Dante as if he were her own. It meant so much knowing he was in such great hands. He loved his time with her and was so happy! Thank you, Janay!

Maci’s stay with Alphonsus was absolutely amazing! I was so stressed about finding the right sitter for my girl, but Alphonsus made the whole experience completely seamless. He was incredibly responsive and kept me updated with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Maci is a rescue and is still learning and getting comfortable in new situations, and Alphonsus was so patient and understanding with her. You could genuinely tell that she felt comfortable and safe with him. He is extremely knowledgeable about dogs, and you can just tell that he is someone dogs naturally love. If I could give 10 stars, I absolutely would! I could not recommend Alphonsus more. I will, without a doubt, always use him to care for Maci. 🐾❤️

The perfect sitter! Gibson truly had a great time with Sunny. We received many daily photos and videos, as well as text updates throughout the day plus a detailed nightly recap of Gibson’s day. He’s an anxious dog but looked happy and relaxed in every pic, even within minutes of drop off. It was hot out, so Sunny took Gibson on daily rides to the dog park and waterfront in her dog wagon and made sure he was comfortable with a layer of ice underneath his mat. He received daily brushings, toothbrushing, paw washes, and tear-stain removal. He came home looking better than when we left! We call it his spa weekend. This was truly like a vacation for our little dog!

Jocelyn was amazing. From a last min booking (due to emergency travel) to dealing with flight delays on the way back. She kept me updated with pics and their walking route and even washed his blanket. Best of all when it was time to go my pup jumped up on the couch - he was very comfortable and that lets me know he was well cared for.
