“Kymberlee did a great job caring for Ralphie. We had some pleasant exchanges before the booking to nail down details. She sent pics and updates during her stay and left the house in good condition. Ralphie seemed happy upon our return and even looked for Kymberlee downstairs where she stayed on the day after she left! We would be grateful to have her sit for us again.”

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life, especially cats, so I naturally understand their Needs and unique personalities. Even though I’ve never owned a dog of my own, I’ve cared for many dogs through friends and family — from puppies who need full attention to older dogs who need extra patience and care. I also have experience giving pets oral medication, so I’m comfortable following special routines. My goal is always to give each pet the same love, comfort, and attention I’d want for my own! I am currently a full-time student at Howard University so I have class everyday. With any free time I have on my hands not studying or in class, I’d love to help! Im happy to take your pets on walks, give them fresh food and water, and spend quality time with them so they feel cared for while you're away. Im gentle and attentive, making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Building trust is very important to me, and treat one like my own! :)
“Our dog, Stevie, was in amazing hands with Aaron and Paweena. They truly rolled out the red carpet for our cattle dog/German shepherd mix. Since Stevie can be nervous around new people, they generously came over for meet-and-greets and walks before our trip. Once we left, for nearly a week and an ocean away, we quickly saw that she was smitten with her new companions. Their daily photos or videos filled our hearts as we watched her thrive with Aaron and Paweena. Aaron has also completed specialized training and brought fun enrichment games to keep Stevie engaged. They clearly understand animal behavior and show deep compassion for the pets entrusted to their care. For walking or house sitting, we highly recommend this experienced, caring dog-whisperer couple. Thank you both!”

“Stephanie did a wonderful job of caring for our pup while we were away. She took great care in following his routine and keeping in touch, even sending funny narrated videos of his play. We are extremely grateful for Stephanie’s professionalism and ease with animals and would recommend her most highly.”

“Emma was very flexible and helpful when she extended the visit when my travels got delayed due to weather. I appreciated her flexibility and communication so much!”

“Amazing! Kai took such great care of my dog; gave him a ton of attention and took him out to meet his family which was very sweet. Rio seemed to have a blast with him, I will absolutely be using Kai again in the future. Thank you!”

“Trisha watched our two dogs for 10 days and things could not not have been smoother. She sent daily pics and videos, and the dogs were clearly having a ball with her. Despite our two very messy dogs, Trisha had the house spotless when we returned. We definitely hope to book her services again when we travel.”

“Caris is excellent! She provided compassionate care and play for my dog, and was responsive in communications while I was away. I highly recommend her for dog care services!”

“Corie did an amazing job dog and house sitting. She was great at communicating. My dog was very comfortable the whole time. I came home to happy healthy dog.”

U Street Corridor pet parents share their Rover experiences
Carol was such a huge help! She came to meet our dog beforehand which gave us such a peace of mind. She’s incredibly kind, communicative, took great care of our dog, gave us lots of updates through her short stay and left our place in great shape. Highly recommend! Would love to book Carol again.

Brenda stayed at our place and took great care of our cat while we were away. She communicated daily and provided updates and photos and I could tell she was sweet with him and he warmed up to her despite his shy nature. I could tell Brenda has a lot of experience with pets, and she was very diligent with our home and thoughtful in her communication.

John was once again a great sitter for Hermione. He followed all of our instructions to a tee and showed up on time. Hermione can be quite needy and John made sure to spend time at our place and send pictures of her while we were away. I would hire John again. Thanks!

Macky took wonderful care of our 12 year old dog and three cats while my husband and I were away for eight days. She sent us lots of updates and pictures, asked questions when she needed to, quickly responded to questions, and was right on time for our meet and greet and the day her stay started. We hope Macky will keep taking care of our babies when we need someone!

Kylie was a great last minute sitter for our dog! Our dog is reactive and has a number of medical issues that Kylie made sure were cared for while we were gone. She was responsive, sent us timely updates and lots of pictures (better than the ones we take). We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog/house sitter in the DC area!

Once again, a complete and utter stressless vacation with Alex in charge of our senior dog and our place. So many great photos sent and updates given along the way. We couldn't ask for anyone better to trust with our special needs boy and our home! Alex is like family now- he even put up with our construction. 💙
