“Alejandro is a wonderful sitter. He was the perfect companion for our timid, finicky miss Maddie. Maddie has a tough time eating and Alejandro was patient and worked with her to make her comfortable enough to eat. He sent wonderful pictures and communicated well while we were away. We we sure she was in good hands and enjoyed our vacation worry free. She was in great spirits when we picked her up and we could tell she enjoyed her stay. We will definitely contact Alejandro again whenever we need a sitter.”

“My active pug had a great stay with Colleen and family. I knew he was in great hands and they kept in touch with pics of Vinny and their lab Lily. Lucky to have found them!”


“Galen did a wonderful job taking care of our old dog. Her home was a calm environment and it seems like she, her family, and her older dog made our dog feel at home. She sent many pictures and it was great to see our dog having a nice stay. Would definitely book again!”

“Chad was incredible - he took great care of my pup and was willing to be flexible when my travel plans were unexpectedly changed due to flight delays. Incredibly grateful.”

“Evan was a great sitter for my older dog, Dempsey! He took great care of him and kept me informed of how he was doing. Evan has a genuine love for dogs and did a wonderful job!”

“I had a two-night trip out of state and it was the first time I had no family or friends available to watch my 2-year-old corgi, Athena. I was really nervous and sad to leave her with someone new but Gabriela's willingness to do a meet-and-greet and her prompt communication and seeing Athena not even look back at me when she went to stay with Gabriela (despite breaking my heart) made me as comfortable as I could be with the idea. I knew Gabriela made Athena feel loved and comfortable and safe (which eased my fears) when I saw several smiling pictures per day of my fur baby and Gabriela. I was positive I made the right --and best-- decision when I picked Athena up today and my sweet girl was all smiles. Gabriela said they had a great weekend and graciously laughed it off when she said --as I predicted--that Athena's only thing the whole weekend was when she barked at all the cleaning products as Gabriela cleaned her apartment. I highly recommend talking to Gabriela if you're looking for someone to love and care for your fur babies as if they were her own.”

“Justin and Jeremy were fantastic! I appreciated meeting them in advance and communication was great. They really catered to her needs and routine to help her feel at home. I appreciated the messages and photos they sent twice a day. I felt confident that she was well cared for and she to really enjoy her stay. Thanks so much guys!”

“I highly recommend Juan and Felipe! They sent daily updates on how my dog was doing and kept me informed about his condition. They are extremely reliable, and as dog owners themselves, they clearly know what they’re doing. Very caring and loving. I would definitely use their services again!!!!”

“Cora is always excited to stay with Shanti and gets along so well with the whole family. My return flight was delayed way past my expectations and she was really sweet about allowing cora to stay even though it meant arriving til late in the evening. She's been my first pick sitter since we moved to the area.”

“Ralphie had a great time with Brianne! She was super responsive and sent many cute photos! I had a great peace of mind while traveling abroad. We are excited for Ralphie to stay there again soon!!”

“Our second time with Michael and Ollie was even better than the first! Atlas was excited to see them again, leaving my side without any concerns at drop-off which is a rarity. And, as always, Michael was very kind, communicative, and flexible. 10/10, can't recommend this duo enough!”

“Charnetta and her family were amazing! They made me feel very comfortable for my first time using the service. It is clear that they are genuine fur baby lovers! My Vader felt right at home as soon as I dropped him off! And I received daily updates with pictures of him smiling. We will definitely be visiting again. 🖤”

“THE BEST!!!! So accommodating, loving, and communicative. My dog had the best time and I was consistently updated and sent messages. Sweetest fam!”

“I can’t say enough good things! We felt so good knowing our dog, Ollie, was being loved and cared for by Katherin for the 4 days we were away. She followed our instructions perfectly and provided daily updates with pictures so not only did we know what he was doing but we got to see him enjoying his time too. Katherin made it easy for us to relax and enjoy our time away knowing Ollie was safe and happy too. She was also very responsive and flexible both before and during the stay. Ollie came home healthy and happy and he can’t wait to stay with Katherin again!”

“Cal and Kelly took great care (again!) of our timid goldendoodle. Especially since she was still dealing with a minor (noncontagious) health issue when she arrived -- they paid special attention to her and kept me informed throughout her stay. Plus they always send beautiful photos of her. Highly recommend!”

“Haydenn is a wonderful pet sitter who takes excellent care of my pup! He was great with my pup and when I picked Lily up, she was relaxed and happy. Haydenn is very communicative, as I received many updates during my pup’s stay! Thank you for everything!”


“Rebecca was truly amazing. She is very responsible and caring. She sent us pictures of Stormy and was updating us on her. Stormy had an awesome time and played a lot. I would definitely recommend Rebecca and would definitely use her next time we are away. Thank you Rebecca.”

“Austin and Majid have watched my dog 3 times and been soooo wonderful. They are loving and considerate of her, and they kept me updated! My dog has some anxiety and behavior challenges, and they were very understanding and patient. Highly recommend!”

“Jeneffer was a great sitter for my little Pomeranian. She answered all of my questions, took great care of my dog and sent me some cute photos. I would absolutely have Jeneffer watch my dog again. Thank you!!!”

Takoma Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
I wish I could give Sonia a 100🌟 rating. She was absolutely amazing with my two little Griffs. They were treated as members of her family and allowed to make themselves comfortable in her home. Over the week that she had them, Sonia constantly sent photos and allayed all my fears. Her flexible schedule allowed her to give my dogs more walks than I ever have - and they loved it. If your dog likes children, they will be absolutely smitten with her daughter, who was so incredibly sweet to them. We will definitely be using Sonia again in the future!

Melanie and her family took such great care of Katie, my three-legged senior pup, that I was worried she would not want to come home. Good communication, with plenty of pics so we could see how much fun she was having. Will definitely check to see if Melanie is available next time I'm going out of town.

This was our first time staying at Galen’s and it went great. Galen was very warm and friendly and easy to communicate with, she sent pictures and updates each day. Our dog was happy and healthy and we’d absolutely send him back to hang with Ginger and the family again.

My Aussie and Pug stayed with Julia and Lily on short notice and had a fantastic stay. They were treated with love and attention, nice backyard to roam in, lots of photos and communication and the pups were happy when I came to pick them up! I would definitely recommend them!
Cora is always excited to stay with Shanti and gets along so well with the whole family. My return flight was delayed way past my expectations and she was really sweet about allowing cora to stay even though it meant arriving til late in the evening. She's been my first pick sitter since we moved to the area.

Aaron and Paweena were lifesavers. We had a last-min trip and needed to find someone to watch our dog, Nox, on short notice, and we are so glad we found them. It was clear Nox was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. Honestly, we are pretty sure she was more upset about leaving Aaron and Paweena than she was about being away from us, which says a lot. We would absolutely trust them with Nox again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind, reliable, and communicative sitters.

Pancho had a blast at Stephanie’s home! It has a beautiful garden and ample space for Pancho to move and play around. Stephanie has 2 other dogs so Pancho had friends to play with - I could tell he was thoroughly entertained as he was really calm for 2 days straight when he got back home. Comms with Stephanie was smooth and easy. I would come back!
