“Lee was incredible with Edith. She handled her slight anxiety like a pro and was flexible when we needed to shift our timing a little. We'll definitely be booking with Lee again.”

“Shadow was happy when I dropped her off and when I picked her up. She received cuddles and was super content on the pictures. I highly recommend Fengyuan!”

About: I am a pet lover. I grew up in a home with many pets including dogs and cats and have always had a special connection to animals. I love going on long walks and heading to the dog park when the weather is nice. I am here to help you care for your pet the best way possible. I'll always listen to special instructions and will show your pet the love and attention as if they were my own. I have a flexible schedule and am able to do "drop-in visits" and "rover now" walks during most week days when many walkers are unavailable. I am in the office two days a week, Tuesdays and a flex day. I can't wait to meet your fur baby! **I cannot accept pets that get into plants as I have a few not pet safe plants at home** I work from home 3 days a week and am home most weekends! I too Iove middle of the day walks and all day hangs! I am in a pet friendly building that is super close to Rock Creek for longer walks. My home is child free, and smoke free. I do have a senior beagle mix I adopted from a family member who could not bring him with for an overseas move who is a full time pet at the home.
“Julia was amazing! Remi (golden puppy) had a great time at her place and enjoyed her other dogs. Also Julia did a great job of sending photos through out the day! Definitely would recommend.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, and just absolutely adore them! I’m a long time dog lover, and have experience helping a fellow Rover Dog walker/Dog sitter care for pups many times! I also work in the emergency department, so staying calm and getting the job done are a huge part of my day to day! I currently work shift work, so on the days I’m off, I am free to dedicate a lot of time to making sure your dog is well cared for and having the best day! I have a spacious apartment in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of space for long walks! There’s also a nearby dog park and plenty of other parks for us to enjoy some play time.
“Juliet is the best doggie sitter! My pup loves her place so much. She is kind and attentive and professional and sends great pics and updates. Highly recommend.”

“My doggie had a wonderful time with Asma and her pooch Mica! She was super considerate of his idiosyncrasies, and planned out a wonderful, well balanced, day care day for him.”

“Chang took wonderful care of Zoe! I really appreciated the updates and photos. Zoe looked very comfortable with her. I will definitely book with Chang again!”

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, from energetic younger dogs to elderly dogs who need extra patience and attention. I have cared for my own dog, which has taught me how important it is to be responsible, gentle, and attentive to each pet’s needs. I have also helped care for my neighbors’ dogs, including both senior dogs and younger dogs, by making sure they are fed, walked, comfortable, and given plenty of love and attention. I understand that every dog has its own personality and routine, and I always do my best to make pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. I currently work on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but the rest of the week I am usually at home working or studying remotely. This gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide pets with plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. I am also especially available on weekends, which is a great option for pet parents who need to board their dog at my apartment. I live in a pet-friendly one-bedroom apartment where pets can feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I make sure to follow each pet’s usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from their owner. I also give pets plenty of attention, love, and a calm environment so they feel at home. My apartment is in a great area with plenty of parks and trails nearby, making it easy to take dogs on walks, get fresh air, and enjoy outdoor time. I always prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness while they are staying with me.
“Michael took great care of my boy! Lots of play and attention; he came home tired out in the best way. Even gave him a brushing! He was also willing to be flexible with my uncertain timing, which was much appreciated. I would book with him again, no question.”

“Jessica was so flexible and helpful as navigating logistics got challenging given a late flight and work commitments that day. Our sweet dog was in excellent hands and had a great day.”

“Shanilka was super responsive and understanding of my dog's needs!! She was very kind and prompt with pick up and drop off so I didn't have to wait long in the cold. Highly recommend!!”

“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 know how important it is to find someone who will treat your pup like family while you're away. I work from home full-time, so your dog will always have company and lots of cuddles throughout the day. - I only host one client at a time, so you dont have to worry about unfamiliar dogs during their stay. -Whether your dog loves playtime, long walks, cuddles on the couch, or a slower-paced routine, I’m happy to match their needs. -I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. I also have experience with dogs with separation anxiety and food or environmental allergies. 📷 You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pup is happy and well cared for. **I live in an apartment building, so I can't safely accommodate large dogs that are reactive to people or other dogs, since it's not possible to completely avoid encounters in shared spaces.** I can accommodate regular walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and check-ins, and I’m able to adjust my routine to meet your dog’s needs. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my priority. I follow all care instructions, use leashes on walks, and provide a calm, secure environment with regular updates.
“It was a rainy day for a lot of today, and Catherine provided enrichment toys and kept Breck entertained! She was kind and communicative, and sent pics & videos throughout the whole day. We’d definitely have Breck stay with Catherine again :)”

About: I live in the city and work for myself, so my hours are flexible! I absolutely love training dogs and puppies, as well as taking care of each animal as if it was my own! I fostered a few puppies, including very aggressive ones, and then happened to adopt the last one I fostered- my pup, Rosie! Rosie doesn’t live with me on the days I have available for pet sitting. I’m very good with reactive and anxious dogs as those are mainly the ones I’ve fostered. Also, I’m confident in high stress scenarios, including reactivity, health issue scares, or sudden crisis situations. I work from home as a business owner, managing my own hours. It’s easy for me to do a last-minute bookings or plan in advance. I treat all animals as if they’re my own, meaning, I feed and walk them at their proper hours, consider their feelings, and respect the wishes of their owners!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - The Palisades
I highly recommend Ayah! She is super communicative and cares so much about Louie. They went on long walks and played in the dog park. Ayah is very flexible with drop off and pick up times, and kept me updated throughout the day on how Louie was doing. Louie can’t wait to go back soon!

Faustine and her husband graciously watched my puppy for the day on last-minute notice. This is the second time I’ve used Faustine and my dog absolutely loves her. She is communicative and sends a lot of cute pics through the day with updates Highly recommend!

ABOVE AND BEYOND! Elliot and his partner Lorraine were simply the BEST!!! Our little baby, Yuzu, 12 months old, had never been out of our care till we had to leave him either alone for a day, or much better, to drop him off with Elliot and Lorraine, in order to drop off our daughter for I-Day at the U.S. Naval Academy. Elliot and Lorraine to the rescue! Not only did they watch Yuzu for over 14 hours in their lovely Georgetown home, Elliot even came to pick him up at 5:30 in the morning! They sent us pictures throughout the day, reassuring us of Yuzu's well being. By the end of the day, it was clear that we made the right choice for Daycare, evident by Yuzu being very content socializing with their two very well-behaved babies, Bronte, and Coogee, a few years older than Yuzu, as well as another guest dog. We can't thank you guys enough and really hope to depend on you in the future to care for Yuzu from time to time! We think Yuzu will think of it like a fun day out instead of missing Mommy and Daddy all day!

Christine is a wonderful sitter. Jax is a senior dog, and I always feel confident leaving him in her care because she is patient, attentive, and understands his needs. He comes home happy and relaxed after every stay, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.

Troy was great! I adopted a dog and needed a sitter to watch him while I get him used to being crated when I go to work. He took the last minute request, was responsive, and took great care of my Beau! He also reported on some of his behaviors for me which was very helpful. All in all a great sitter and I would absolutely leave Beau with him in the future!
