“Kara and her husband were wonderful! Quick to respond, sent pictures and videos during the stay, and understanding. My dog looked like he had a blast and still wanted to hang out when I went to pick him up.”
“This was Chewy's first night with Kodi and he was so comfortable!! Chewy didn't complain not one time, ate his food right away, and enjoyed spending time with her. Chewy also loves smelling the flowers in her yard and taking his nap on the mini couch 🤣”
“Melissa is amazing. My puppy has been skittish ever since I got her from the shelter and she gets nervous around people and other dogs but she warmed up quickly to Melissa. Melissa is super sweet and dogs know that. My puppy Wednesday loves playing with her cute dogs she has. I love all the updates I get and love how patient Melissa is. Melissa is awesome because I had to book a last minute booking and she was able to take my puppy in. If I could give 10 stars I for sure would. Thank you so much Melissa ❤️❤️”
“I had a great experience with Dana. My dog seemed comfortable and happy during his stay, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She clearly has a natural way with dogs, and I could tell my dog felt safe and well-cared for. I would definitely trust her again to watch my dog in the future! Highly recommend!”
“Yunuen and Saul were responsive, professional and overall amazing with our two dogs. They watched our dogs while we were in the hospital awaiting the arrival of our baby girl. They were extremely accommodating with our schedule and gave us plenty of updates throughout our dogs’ stay. Our dogs were very happy and we feel very confident in recommending these sitters to anyone looking for a reliable care giver for their fur babies.”
“Amanda was very communicative, she would constantly send me pictures and give multiple updates through out the day. She cleaned and helped heal his eye when he had a small scratch. She had very open availability to work with my schedule, we had no problems. My dog was very happy through the entire time she was caring for him and would hire her again in the future,hopefully she would accept it. Thanks Amanda.”
“Marie and Rafael were absolutely wonderful! This was my first time using Rover and it was an amazing first experience . Marie kept me continuously updated on my pet and send pictures throughout the week. It takes my dog time to grow comfortable with new people, so it was wonderful to see him get more and more comfortable. I can not recommend Marie and Rafael enough!”
“He has watched my dog twice now and I don't think I will take her anywhere else whenever I need to go somewhere. Cisco does a great job at updating you, sending you pictures, and just communicating overall. I would definitely suggest him to anyone who needs a dog sitter.”
“This is our second time using Patti and won’t be our last! She took excellent care of our puppy, Sophie, while we were gone for a week. Patti is easy to communicate with and sends lots of updates and photos which we appreciate. Sophie has allergies and Patti made sure to keep her on the foods okayed by our vet and administer an additional supplement. She also helped Sophie get comfortable sleeping in her crate again after she had been struggling with it for a couple weeks. Our puppy gets along great with Patti’s dogs and cat and the other dogs in her care. We highly recommend Patti!”
About: Hi! I’ve been caring for dogs for over 3 years and treat every pup like family. I’m experienced with females in heat, regular potty routines, and providing a balance of indoor comfort and outdoor playtime. I’m home full-time Monday–Friday and provide constant supervision. I only step out briefly (about 15 minutes) for school drop-offs and pick-ups, and I monitor pets during that time with a Furbo camera. Weekend boarding is available with advance notice! My home is cage-free with supervised free roam, but I’m happy to accommodate crates or specific care needs if that’s what your dog is used to. I also offer baths during their stay if needed. I have two friendly female Frenchies who love making new playmates, and I can also keep dogs separated if preferred. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priority!
“Alondra was amazing! She took my dog super last minute, literally agreed the morning of drop off. I am very grateful for that as well as the communication, she updated me every day about how my dog was doing and sent pictures as well upon request. She also genuinely cared and asked me about care instructions during drop off, has a wonderful environment next to a park that fit my dogs needs, and family who was also able to care for my dog!”
“Brenda took amazing care of my 2 pups! It was my first time leaving on a trip and having to find a sitter for them and I’m so glad i went with brenda! My dogs loved her so much and i will definitely be booking again with Brenda in the future!”

About: I’ve always had a cat grownup weather its job was to keep me company or to keep the rats from coming in the house. I love how cats are so quiet but aware at the same time. This picture is of my cat KitKat, I named him myself as a kid. Enjoy his pure bliss while playing in some catnip😭

About: Hi! I'm Aileen, a 20-year-old who's always had a special place in my heart for all animals. Growing up, I was the go to pet sitter in my neighborhood, and I've spent many hours caring for and bonding with both. I've volunteered at animal shelters, where I helped with feeding, socializing, and walking the dogs, and I've fostered a few kittens, too. I don’t have any cats of my own simply because id feel bad leaving them home while i work/go to school, but i feed the strays outside my house daily. I'd like to think that i'm a calm and gentle person, friendly but a little reserved, so I tend to connect really well with animals. I truly believe every animal deserves love, patience, and a safe space, and I love being part of that care.
About: I've grown up living around and taking care of animals since I turned 5. Dealing with Pitbulls, Chihuahua's, and so on. I've also been around plenty of cats in my life to know how to take care of them. (Just minus hairless cats, never been around them before.) I'm very patient when it comes to pets, knowing that it's usually best to let them come to you. I also know how to give pets any medications they may need. Just not injections. I've got college classes on Monday's-Thurdays, and I will list the times each class. But after December 18th my time is mostly open during the week. When caring for pets in clients homes, I will keep my eyes on them. Making sure they're taken out when needed for potty breaks and walks, play time, feeding when necessary and being sure their toy's are cleaned up.
About: I have extensive experience in caring for cats of all ages and temperaments, from playful kittens to older, more reserved felines. I understand the unique personalities that cats have and can quickly adapt to their specific needs, whether they prefer playtime and active engagement or quiet companionship. My experience includes maintaining feeding schedules, providing litter box care, and handling grooming needs to keep cats comfortable and happy. I am skilled at recognizing feline body language and behavior, which allows me to detect any signs of stress or discomfort early on and address them with gentle care. I am also comfortable administering medications and caring for cats with special dietary or health needs, ensuring they stay safe and well-cared for in their home environment. With a deep appreciation for the independence and individuality of cats, I strive to make every visit stress-free and enjoyable for each feline friend.
About: Hello there, my name is Anahy and I've been around dogs since I was 2 years old. My family and I have had all types of dogs, big sizes and small sizes. We'll make sure your dog feels like they are at home, will be well fed, and will be active. I'm currently not working right now which gives me an opportunity to take in anyone during the week or during the weekend. I'm willing to pick the dog up or simply just go an extra mile for the loving pet. I live in a townhome, so I don't have a fenced area, but that doesn't mean your dog won't get any type of exercise. I'm constantly going on hikes, going to parks, and going to beaches which are my favorite. I do have two dogs one is a year old and 6 months and he is a maltipoo and I have a shih Tzu mix and he is 3 years old. Both dogs are very playful with any type of dog size.
About: I have two cats of my own. I know how to clean litter, tricks to clip nails and bathe. If your cat enjoys walks and has a leash, I’m more than willing to walk them. Whatever your cat needs/likes, I’m here for it.
“Tony did a great job with our dog and we would absolutely book with him again. He was very kind, clearly loves animals, and made us feel really comfortable leaving our dog in his care. Communication was excellent and he was quick to respond and kept us updated, which we really appreciated. He also left our place well taken care of. Overall, we had a really positive experience and we’d highly recommend Tony to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“Eliana is a champion in taking care of multiple animals and also loving on them. I have TICA registered Ragdolls and one mama cat was far along in to her pregnancy when we left for the weekend. I also have a 65 pound sweet old dog and some of my cats like to try and sneak outside. Eliana agreed to do a considerable amount of work including putting antibiotic cream on one kitty, the possibility of dealing with birth (which happened), and cleaning multiple litterboxes in different rooms. She did such an amazing job, I cannot say enough. She moved newborn kittens to a safe place and set them up a warm spot, safely maneuvered my outside cat house and enclosure without either of my boys escaping, and easily befriended our old girl, Skully (dog). All of their areas were neat and tidy upon our return. I adored all of the photos she sent. I have no clue how she got such good photos of my cats. My confidence in her abilities were confirmed when I saw how happy my crew was with her in the photos. There was one of her and Skully shaking hands! ** I highly recommend Eliana to watch your animals. If you have a large or very important request, she is not intimidated and will come through flawlessly**”
About: Growing up I honestly can’t remember a time I wasn’t looking after dogs, rather they be my own or pets that belonged to my aunties. I’ve always enjoyed taking them to the park or taking them on walks / runs alongside me. I was the main one in charge of feeding, bathing and walking them when I was growing up and giving them medicine when necessary. I’m very patient and careful when it comes to pets especially those that aren’t in my household because I know how much they can mean to someone, they are like family in a way. I’m currently working part time Monday-Friday from 12-6pm so I have plenty of time in the mornings or even weekends for overnight stays if necessary. I care for pets when at clients home by making sure they have my undivided attention 24/7. My phone is only answered during emergencies and I am rarely on it while taking care of other peoples pets. I have set alarms for meal times and walk times as well.
About: I’ve had cats my whole life and I’m great at respecting their boundaries and Caring for them how they need to be cared for. I will love your kitty and make sure they are safe, fed and cared for.

I work from home so they get a lot of attention. I'm walking distance to the dog park as well! My main goal is to make sure that you don't stress one bit while your pets are in my care. I'm an animal and people person. I will happily feed, administer medication if needed, walk/run per your request, hang, snuggle and play games with your animal baby. I will also brush your dog at least once a day unless they absolutely hate it ;). I am super active and loving person, and will do everything I can to take care of your pets as if they were my own.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 11, helping my mom foster and pet sit for friends, family, and neighbors. Over the past 8 years, I’ve become the go-to sitter for walks, feedings, playtime, and lots of tail wags! What really sets me apart is my hands-on experience. Not just in homes, but also in a veterinary clinic, where I volunteered while my mom worked there. That gave me firsthand knowledge of how to care for pets of all ages and needs-from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra TLC. I’m confident, calm, and comfortable handling all sorts of dogs, and I treat every pet like family. Whether it's a simple walk or more involved care, I’m always up for the job! I attend college but I do online. As of right now, I solely work in pet care and child care. So I make my own schedule and can provide quality care to you pet. I care for your pets like they’re my own. With love, patience, and lots of attention to detail. I understand that some pets may feel uneasy when their family leaves or a new person enters their space, and I always approach them with calm energy and respect to help them feel safe and secure. My top priority is to follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible like meals, walks, playtime, and snuggles, so they feel comfortable and cared for in your absence. I also make sure your home stays clean and well-maintained during my stay. I clean up after your pet (and myself!), keep things tidy, and always leave your home as clean-or cleaner-than I found it. That means vacuuming up fur, wiping down surfaces, and respecting your space as if it were my own. Your pet’s well-being and your peace of mind matter to me, and I take pride in providing both.

I'm very patient when it comes to pets, knowing that it's usually best to let them come to you. I also know how to give pets any medications they may need. Just not injections. I've got college classes on Monday's-Thurdays, and I will list the times each class. But after December 18th my time is mostly open during the week. When caring for pets in clients homes, I will keep my eyes on them. Making sure they're taken out when needed for potty breaks and walks, play time, feeding when necessary and being sure their toy's are cleaned up.

About: - Volunteered for years at Mary S Roberts Pet Adoption Center - Dog mom of a Beagle Labrador mix for 6 years - Grew up raising senior dogs since I was little ❤️ I work for the school district, so I am unemployed until school starts again meaning I have plenty of time to check on your little babies! I’m available pretty much anytime, any day of the week! I am a very loving pet owner and believe that mutual respect is key to understanding any pet! By respecting the wishes and boundaries of animals, I can gain the trust and bond needed to make them happy!
About: I love all animals, and they usually love me back. I am very comfortable in all sorts of situations. I can also take care of horses, goats, chickens, cows, pigs, fish. I was working for a ranch with Clydesdales before the owners moved, and would love another job like that. I currently take care of pets full-time. I walk dogs in the morning/early afternoon. I have several clients that I walk for regularly, my schedule is flexible. I am very good at making sure pets are safe. I'm comfortable making sure pets can not escape when I enter a room. I am very careful with doors and gates.
About: My husband and I both grew up in pet loving homes. I’v had pets since I was a little girl so am very experienced with all types of pets. We currently have 3 dogs and live in large fenced in house A little about my fur-babies: Benji is my fawn pug, he is 8 years old. Darcy and Ollie are both rescues we rescued from the streets, fostered and ultimately decided they were a good fit for our family. They are all great with other dogs and don’t mind having any pet’s around. We had to say goodbye to our pug Kevin in 2023, he was a special needs pug and needed constant care and medical attention. We have lots experience dealing with special/medical needs dogs. We are huge pug lovers but welcome all types of dogs. 🐕 🩷 We both work from home and have a very flexible schedule so are always available to care for your pet and give them lots of attention and care I am home all day which allows me to spend a lot of quality time with your fur-baby. I will treat your pet like my own with love and care.
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs, small and large ever since I was a kid. I am very trusted amongst family members when they need advice on their pets whether they are feeling okay or what they enjoy. I have watched over cats and dogs to either take them out to the bathroom, clean their puppy pads or change their litter. I can provide meals and bathroom breaks in a timely manner in order to satisfy furry friends! I know a lot about pets because of how much time I’ve spent over the years researching and learning pet behavior on what comforts or can discomfort them. I take pride in being a responsible pet owner/ caregiver because I know furry friends need just as much care as a child too! I’m currently in a college student looking for another fun job. I currently work a part time, so my schedule is often switched and random so I wouldn’t say that I can set a specific schedule for pet caregiving days but I do get my schedule 2 weeks in advance so I am always open to arrange meetings/ appointments those days! I clean up after every mess they make. I make sure to keep a steady schedule for meals. I make sure to brush and clean them as needed. And I always make sure they’re comfortable whether it be to play or relax.
About: Dogs have been in my family for many years. I've gotten to bond with many fur babies through walks, play time, cuddles, sitting and etc. I currently work at a Veterinary facility where I'm able to bring my own pets to work making it easy to give them 24hr care. I will take your fur babies out for walks around the neighborhood. I have a fenced front and backyard where your pets can play safely.
About: I have extensive experience in pet care, having worked with a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, small animals, and birds. I am well-versed in maintaining feeding routines, providing exercise, and administering medications as needed. I understand pet behavior and can offer companionship and attention to help reduce separation anxiety, making sure each pet feels comfortable and secure while their owner is away. Health and safety are always my top priorities; I monitor each animal for signs of illness or distress and am prepared to respond quickly in case of an emergency. I adapt my approach to meet the unique personalities and needs of each pet, ensuring they stay happy and comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I also have experience caring for elderly pets and those with special dietary or medical requirements, offering personalized care to keep them safe and content. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. I incorporate regular visits, feedings, playtimes, and check-ins with the pets I care for, organizing my schedule to ensure they receive consistent and reliable attention. Each day, I set aside dedicated time for feeding routines, exercise, and companionship based on each pet’s unique needs. Throughout the week, I also plan for any special requirements like grooming, administering medications, or spending extra time with pets who may need more care or reassurance. This routine allows me to balance pet care with my other responsibilities while ensuring every pet I care for gets the attention, love, and stability they need, making them feel comfortable and happy even while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment tailored to each animal’s needs. I start by setting up a designated space where they can feel secure, with their bedding, toys, and any personal items that make them feel at ease. I maintain a regular routine for feeding, exercise, and bathroom breaks, which helps them feel settled and reduces any stress they may have from being in a new place. For cats and small pets, I ensure they have cozy, quiet areas for rest and enrichment activities like scratching posts, toys, and safe climbing spaces. For dogs, I incorporate plenty of outdoor time, walks, and play sessions in my fenced yard or on local trails, giving them both exercise and stimulation. I’m attentive to each pet’s health and well-being, observing for any signs of discomfort or stress and providing comfort and care to help them relax. My home is pet-proofed for safety, and I keep a close watch to ensure they stay safe, happy, and feel as much “at home” as possible.

I'm available all day. i have had various different breeds of dogs, small dogs such as chihuahuas to large dogs such as Huskies, Bull dogs, and Boxers. If it's too hot outside, the dog will remain inside due to hot concrete. Will go out of way to buy dog toys and treats. I'm an active individual so i'm constantly outside and at parks, hiking and beach. If your dog has a eating and potty schedule i will be more than willing to follow that schedule as to not throw off the dogs routine. I’m available all day, everyday! I started dog sitting on the Wag! App in 2020… if you would like to see my reviews on their feel free as in new to Rover. If I’m boarding, I live in an apartment with a patio area in the front that doesn’t have a gate… I can crate your dog/cat if needed if crate is provided, inside or outside. If walking, I will keep pets inside if it’s too hot as cement will burn their paws
“Boots liked Sara very much, normally boots barks when seeing someone outside the household instead she just sniffed her and left with her without an issue. Another plus she is punctual. Sara will be walking boots on a recurring schedule..”
About: Hello, I’ve walked dogs for two years. Friends and neighbors trusted me to make sure their pets get their daily walk and food. I fostered a dog for 6 months and have a cat named Naomi. Fun fact I rescued my cat as a kitten that was found in my backyard. Originally thought it was a girl but Naomi is a boy and the name has stayed! I took Sugar after one of my fathers friends was about to sender her. She is smart and I have trained her to be friendly with other dogs as she did not socialize before she met my family. Having a half lab half German shepherd means you have to have constant walks and high energy but it also keeps me in shape to walk and play with your furry family members. Currently I have open availability during the summer. During the school year I work as an avid tutor/ substitute teacher for FCPS. I’m also a student at Marymount university! I study accounting and finance. Classes are online and at night. I always check gates, fences, and doors before I enter and leave houses. It helps make sure that everything is secure. I like to have contact to make sure I know how I can enter the house and where to park. As well as know where the pets food, water, leash, toys, and bags are. I will update and send pictures to make sure you know your pet is in good hands.

“Kara and her husband were wonderful! Quick to respond, sent pictures and videos during the stay, and understanding. My dog looked like he had a blast and still wanted to hang out when I went to pick him up.”
“I had a great experience with Dana. My dog seemed comfortable and happy during his stay, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She clearly has a natural way with dogs, and I could tell my dog felt safe and well-cared for. I would definitely trust her again to watch my dog in the future! Highly recommend!”
“Yunuen and Saul were responsive, professional and overall amazing with our two dogs. They watched our dogs while we were in the hospital awaiting the arrival of our baby girl. They were extremely accommodating with our schedule and gave us plenty of updates throughout our dogs’ stay. Our dogs were very happy and we feel very confident in recommending these sitters to anyone looking for a reliable care giver for their fur babies.”
“Marie and Rafael were absolutely wonderful! This was my first time using Rover and it was an amazing first experience . Marie kept me continuously updated on my pet and send pictures throughout the week. It takes my dog time to grow comfortable with new people, so it was wonderful to see him get more and more comfortable. I can not recommend Marie and Rafael enough!”
“He has watched my dog twice now and I don't think I will take her anywhere else whenever I need to go somewhere. Cisco does a great job at updating you, sending you pictures, and just communicating overall. I would definitely suggest him to anyone who needs a dog sitter.”
“Alondra was amazing! She took my dog super last minute, literally agreed the morning of drop off. I am very grateful for that as well as the communication, she updated me every day about how my dog was doing and sent pictures as well upon request. She also genuinely cared and asked me about care instructions during drop off, has a wonderful environment next to a park that fit my dogs needs, and family who was also able to care for my dog!”
“Alejandro and family was terrific!! They were able to accommodate me on short notice and took great care of our dog. They provided me with daily updates and pictures which was comforting. Will definitely be utilizing their services in the future. I highly recommend them. Thanks again, Alejandro.”
“Cameron did a great job with my little guy. I've only had this dog about 5 months and he has had some social issues, which Cameron handled like a champ. My pup got lots of opportunities to socialize with people and other dogs and came home happy and tired from all the playtime he got!”
“Kat was amazing when it came to communicating before and during my dogs stay with her. She is very professional & kind. Would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs any dog sitting services. FIVE starts”
“First off, April likes to go by Autumn. She was a great sitter for our doggies and I felt confident they would be watched with great care. She is very professional and careful in her daily schedule. She's been professionally training dogs for years as well, so there's that bonus! We will use her again for sure! Thank you Autumn!”
