“Aleyda took great care of our dog Ty - he came home content and happy and well exercised. Aleyda was extremely communicative - we received multiple pictures and texts each day. You can tell that she really loves dogs, gets to know them individually and cares about them. I would highly recommend her and will ask her to sit for Ty again anytime.”
“Jesper and his wife took amazing care of Arlo! Him and brownie are the best of friends. I got so many amazing pictures and felt he was very loved and taken care of. Arlo would love to stay with Jesper and his wife and brownie again soon!”
“Rodrigo is the best. He is considerate, accommodating, and sends great pictures and updates. My dog Curtis loves visiting for doggy daycare and extended stays.”
“Crystal is such a thoughtful and caring sitter! Every time I take Scooter he comes out of his shell more and more. It’s been amazing watching him blossom. I’m so grateful to have found Crystal. She is a blessing to me and my furbaby!”
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.
“I needed 5 hours of dog care for my newly rescued senior Pomeranian and I’m so grateful to have found Donna. Donna provided a calm and caring environment for my dog to feel comfortable and relaxed, and they took a 20 minute walk together. Thank you so much, Donna!”
“Sarah was a fantastic sitter for Abby! She was communicative, sent lots of photos, and made us feel at ease during our trip. Abby had the best time and we look forward to future stays with Sarah and family 🐾”
“Elikem was really flexible and willing to go out of her way to properly care for my dog. I really appreciate the concern she had for Karlos. I would definitely book again.”
“Rahel did a wonderful job with our girl Shirley! She sent pictures, gave us updates, and I could tell that our girl was happy! We will definitely be using Rahel again!”
“Jordan is the best pet sitter we could ever ask for! Our dog always comes back looking fluffier with his tail wagging. We love the “Capone chronicles” which brings us so much joy when we’re away.”
“Again, Brendan took care of all Edna's wants and needs and treated her like a princess as well. He is always punctual, calm and caring. I know Edna is living her best life when she's with Brendan!”
“Bianca was a wonderful sitter. I knew the moment I met her that my pooch was in good hands which put me at ease. My dog takes time to warm up to people but he was well acquainted with Bianca so quickly. She provided frequent updates and I could tell my dog felt comfortable with her in photos. When I picked my dog up he was crying when she left and was searching for her. I would absolutely recommend her to look after your pet.”
“Ayla did great with our dog, Josie, and was easy to communicate with. She handled Josie's initial fear well and soon she was happy! Josie loved Ayla's dog too.”
“This was Shannon's second time watching Luna and once again she did an excellent job. If you're looking to hire a cat sitter, I highly recommend her as she is very experienced and communicative. 10/10.”
“Dylan is fantastic! We booked him to watch our dog Bruno, and he went above and beyond from the very start. He was kind enough to set up a meet-and-greet a few days before our booking, which immediately gave us so much peace of mind and helped Bruno feel comfortable with him. During the stay, Dylan kept us completely updated every single morning with a detailed report of Bruno's behavior and daily routine. The photos he sent showed Bruno looking so relaxed and happy. Dylan is incredibly flexible, a great communicator, and always quick to respond to messages. I couldn't be happier knowing Bruno was in such wonderful company. I recommend Dylan 100%!”
“Our dog had a wonderful stay with Georgia and Kalun and their pups. Kalun was so friendly, sent a ton of photos and videos, and was incredibly easy to communicate with. I knew our dog was in kind and loving hands. We look forward to using them again!”
“Juan and Felipe took amazing care of bubba while I was away. They were extremely communicative and flexible. I look forward to booking with them in the future!”
“Eric was great! We had a family emergency and needed to travel internationally. He sent lots of pics and even socialized our dog. It was an exciting week away from home with many adventures. Will definitely use him again in the future. Thank you for taking such great care of our baby!”
“Jesse and his wife were great Dog Sitters for our Rosie! Jesse took excellent care of Rosie. They sent lots of adorable pictures and kept us updated during the whole stay, we will definitely be booking with Jesse again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Takoma Park
It was my first time leaving my dog with a sitter, so I was really nervous and worried. But everything went great! Gabriela sent me photos and updates while I was away, which made me feel much better. My dog came home happy, and I’m really grateful to Gabriela for taking care of him!
Aaron and Paweena were absolutely amazing! For our first experience with Rover, we couldn't have asked for better sitters for our Ruby. They updated us every day with pictures and videos and were very caring for our pup! We would definitely use them again in the future! Your dog will be in great hands with them!
Pascaline is amazing! We felt so comfortable leaving our 15 year old with health issues and 8 year old active lab in her care. Her communication is impeccable and she made sure to engage both dogs with enrichment that was appropriate for their temperaments and needs.
Katie and her husband did a wonderful job taking care of our girl Tanuki! Katie sent regular updates and was very patient with our girl's finicky eating habits. Waffle was also an excellent hostess, and the pups enjoyed their time walking around the neighborhood together. We would definitely be glad to have Tanuki stay with them again. 🙂

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Many sitters in MD ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
