With a senior dog, we do get nervous about leaving mango new places. I would say within five minutes of the meet and greet it was clear that Shanilka and her husband would be taking great care of him. They asked all the right questions and during our stay sent regular updates to make sure we knew he was in good hands. Would definitely use again!

We have always had friends offer to keep our dog when we travel. This year, knowing they had a lot going on, we did not want to ask. A friend who is a rover pet sitter suggested we find someone in our area. We reached out to several with no success. Then we read Colleen & Sean's profile and felt we had found the family. They responded very quickly, set up a date with a couple of days to meet and, for my husband and I, the right caretakers for our dog. They shared photos and details everyday to us. Since this was our first time with Rover, we were scared at the start and reassured it was the right decision everyday. As we retrieved our dog on the last day, we heard their daughter saying good bye to her, which reaffirmed, she for the week, was family. I highly recommend this incredible family.

We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! From the moment we met them, we felt completely at ease leaving our pet in her care. They were reliable, attentive, communicative, and clearly treated our pet like family. We received regular updates, photos, and thoughtful check-ins that gave us so much peace of mind while away. Our pet was were happy, well cared for, and comfortable when we returned — which says everything. It’s obvious they genuinely love animals and go above and beyond to make sure both pets and owners feel supported. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and exceptional!

Brianne sent pictures daily, so we felt at ease while we were away. She was excellent with communication, responding promptly when messaging on the Rover app. We picked up a very happy and tired pup after his stay. Would definitely book again!

Laurie and Richard helped me last minute when I struggled to find a dog sitter on a holiday weekend. They were also very accommodating to my travel schedule which was a little flux. My dog can be rather anxious but she quickly warmed up to them. The fact that they have a house with a yard was also a benefit to my pup! They also are true animal lovers and very patient with each animals needs and making sure they are comfortable. I would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of a pet sitter!

About: I have fifteen years of pet sitting and care experience, to include drop-ins, walks, feedings, litter box cleaning and overnight stays. When I was little, I wanted to be a veterinarian, and then a zoologist. Neither career panned out, but my love for animals remained. Now I get my fill of furry friends by providing excellent, worry-free care for your pets! As a proud mom of three urban hens, I know how nerve-wracking it is to be away from a beloved pet. That’s why I provide frequent updates and pictures to my clients so that they can go about their workdays or trips without anxiety. I specialize in cats, dogs and birds. I can’t wait to meet your pet! I am currently freelancing part-time, which provides me with an extremely flexible schedule to care for your pets! From walks to drop-ins to overnight stays, I can provide a variety of services to DMV pet owners When in your home whether for a drop-by or overnight stay, I am committed to making your pet feel as comfortable and happy as possible in the absence of their person/people. I follow my clients’ instructions and specifics of their pets’ routines, and follow them closely. I also provide lots of love and cuddles (or love from afar for pets that don’t like to be touched!)

About: Hi there! I grew up loving dogs, in fact, my older sibling was our family German Shepard! She made sure I was safe, and I made sure she was well loved! I understand how important four-legged family members are. I will provide your fur baby with the same level of care I would want for my own. I LOVE dogs and they love me! I have owned and cared for a full range of dogs. You can feel relaxed with your pet in my care, whether a baby or mature pet, I’ve handled them all! Also, as an experienced foster mom, I am fully comfortable and capable of handling newly adopted or foster dogs, and shy/timid dogs. I have no breed or size restrictions. All furry friends are welcome! Whatever you and your pet need, I am here to help. Currently, I am focused only on dog sitting. Although I tend to schedule tasks when I am not caring for a dog, if I need to run an errand, pups are never left alone for more than one to two hours. My home is very pet friendly and safe. Your fur baby is more than welcome to hang out with me on the couch or on the bed! Let my love of pets help you feel secure in your fur baby's safety and well-being.

About: Hi! My name is Christopher, and I've been caring for animals for most of my life. I grew up with my family's Chihuahua and have been pet sitting and dog walking for family and friends since I was 15 years old. I completed a Veterinary Assistant course at a nearby college and am trained in both dog and cat CPR and first aid. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, including large dogs, high energy dogs, and senior cats and dogs that need a little extra patience and attention. I'm passionate about providing more than just the basics of pet care. I believe pets thrive when they receive plenty of exercise, playtime, enrichment, and individualized attention. I also place a strong emphasis on reading and respecting each animal's body language so that they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking partner, a dependable sitter, or someone to provide attentive care while you're away, I'll treat them like they're part of my own family. My goal is to give you peace of mind and ensure your pet is happy, healthy, and well cared for! I have full availability until June 27th. Until then, I am always more than willing to be flexible and work with you to create a plan and schedule that best fits your animal's needs and routines. Being the owner of a feisty chihuahua and having cared for larger but equally rambunctious dogs, I can work well under pressure to keep a watchful eye on any and all pets in the home as well as maintain an awareness of open windows/doors and other security concerns. I know how to maintain a healthy balance between play and gentle guidance - especially when outdoors or in the vicinity of other animals.

I will be working part time over the summer with flexibility working remotely. I will be available to provide anything from walks & short visits to longer stays! I will clearly follow all rules and safety instructions you give me to respect your space and keep your furry friends safe. Just let me know!

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.

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.

Asma’s also very responsive and sent nice updates of their day together. Looking forward to the next time!

About: I had the pleasure of raising my two pups from infancy at the same time - and they’re 10 and energetic now! I am very energetic and love all kinds of dogs, so happy to help! I work from home and am quite flexible during most work days! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m happy to accommodate any daily routine for your dog. I am very active so I can walk them on check-ins and definitely take them out for restroom breaks I have two dogs at home and they love to play with other dogs if your dog is friendly, and if not happy to hang out and take care of your dog alone as well. Whatever you and your dog are most comfortable with!

About: I have grown up with pets in the home (both cats and dogs) and have taken care of them throughout their entire lives. I have an active lifestyle and would love to have some furry companions on my walks and hikes and make sure they get proper exercise. I currently have a part time internship on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday 10 AM -3 PM. Otherwise, my schedule is very flexible. I normally tend to go on walks in the mornings and mid- afternoons. I have a fenced backyard with ample room for play and running around. I have two friendly cats, however they often keep to themselves, especially when there are other animals present.

She took great care of him and gave us real peace of mind during a stressful situation. She was also very flexible with our pickup time, which we really appreciated. We’re incredibly grateful and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.

I needed to find someone who could walk my dog Daisy and spend a little time with her during the week when I'm at work. Rubens was quick to respond and we had a meet and greet a few days later. Daisy loves to be outside, so she enjoys each walk with Rubens. She doesn't quite understand fetch, but I'm sure if she learned, she'd love playing that with him, too. Highly recommended.

About: I'm not just another dog walker or pet sitter — I'm your reliable neighborhood neighbor who’s already the go-to person in my 10-story NW DC apartment building for everything from quick walks to overnight stays (and yes, I handle both dogs and cats with ease!). What really makes me different is my background as a recently retired Special Education teacher. That means I bring serious patience, structure, and a knack for reading behavior to every pet I care for. Whether it’s helping a energetic young pup learn polite leash manners, crate training basics, or simple commands during our walks and playtime — or giving gentle, attentive care to senior dogs and cats who need slower paces, extra cuddles, or help with mobility and medication — I’m genuinely good at meeting each pet exactly where they are. I grew up with dogs and cats, so I’m comfortable with all personalities and ages. I focus on making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away — with consistent routines, plenty of affection, and that extra layer of responsibility that comes from years of working with kids who needed thoughtful, individualized support. In short: You get a sitter who’s dependable, experienced with all life stages of pets, and truly enjoys the work. Your furry (or not-so-furry) family member will get the kind of calm, attentive care that makes coming home even sweeter. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily and weekly routine! Since I’m recently retired, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I live right in a 10-story apartment building in NW DC, so I’m already here and can easily pop down for midday walks, quick drop-ins, or overnight stays without any commute hassle. A typical week for me includes several regular dog walks and cat visits for neighbors in the building. I genuinely enjoy starting my day with a good walk or ending it with some playtime and cuddles. It keeps me active, social, and smiling — plus it gives me that wonderful sense of responsibility I loved from my teaching days. Whether it’s a quick 30-minute walk around the neighborhood, a full night of house sitting, or daily check-ins while you’re traveling, fitting pet care into my schedule is easy and something I truly look forward to. I’m available most days and evenings, and I’m happy to work around your needs! I provide all pet care in your home only, so your pets stay in their familiar environment where they feel safest and most comfortable. For dogs, I will only consider bringing them to my house on very rare occasions — and only after I’ve gotten to know the dog well and we both agree it’s the right fit. All cat care happens exclusively in your home. In your home, I follow your exact routines for feeding, walks (for dogs), playtime, litter box care, medications, and more. I’m very mindful about safety: keeping doors and windows locked, using secure leashes when needed, and treating your space with complete respect. As a retired Special Education teacher, I’m patient, observant, and highly responsible. I treat every pet and every home with the care they deserve. You can trust that your furry family member will be in safe, loving hands.

About: I have a pet Russian tortoise who requires special care and delicate handling that's more involved than, say, walking and feeding a dog or taking care of a cat. I have a pretty flexible schedule both this summer and into the fall. Pet care can easily be scheduled around my summer job and college classes. I make sure pets, my own and others that I've been responsible for, get plenty of attention. I don't leave them until all their needs have been met

About: I've had a dog my whole life and love taking care of pets. I've been known to walk my neighbors dogs and water their plants when they need the help. I recently ran a half marathon so I would happily take your pet for long walks and even a run. I'm very responsible and nurturing, so I would love to channel that energy into your pet instead of my roommates for a bit. Let me help you give your pet the exciting life they deserve. I'm a full time college student, with a good amount of free time during the summer time, so I would be able to care for your pet whenever it's needed. I plan on taking pets out in the cooler parts of the day, and if the weather is too hot, I feel comfortable entertaining a pet inside, so they can get some of their wiggles out. I have administered medication to dogs several times and feel very comfortable taking care of dogs of all ages.

About: Hi, my name is Mila! My whole life I’ve been surrounded by animals, and I truly love them. I’m a cat mom myself so I will take care of your fluffy kid like my own! I LOOOVE taking pics of animals, so you’ll be sure to get a portrait of your baby. Check out my photo gallery! I'm currently working from Monday to Friday until 3 pm. Because of that, I do drop-ins after 3:30 pm on workdays and house sitting during weekends. I’m a person who enjoys spending as much time with animals as I can. I know that animals are missing their parents when they are at home alone, and I believe pet sitting is so much more than just feeding and cleaning a litter box or walking a dog. Unfortunately I won’t be able to bring your pet to my own place because of my two cats. They are love bugs with me but not too social or keen on befriending other animals.

About: Hi! My name is Christopher, and I've been caring for animals for most of my life. I grew up with my family's Chihuahua and have been pet sitting and dog walking for family and friends since I was 15 years old. I completed a Veterinary Assistant course at a nearby college and am trained in both dog and cat CPR and first aid. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, including large dogs, high energy dogs, and senior cats and dogs that need a little extra patience and attention. I'm passionate about providing more than just the basics of pet care. I believe pets thrive when they receive plenty of exercise, playtime, enrichment, and individualized attention. I also place a strong emphasis on reading and respecting each animal's body language so that they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking partner, a dependable sitter, or someone to provide attentive care while you're away, I'll treat them like they're part of my own family. My goal is to give you peace of mind and ensure your pet is happy, healthy, and well cared for! I have full availability until June 27th. Until then, I am always more than willing to be flexible and work with you to create a plan and schedule that best fits your animal's needs and routines. Being the owner of a feisty chihuahua and having cared for larger but equally rambunctious dogs, I can work well under pressure to keep a watchful eye on any and all pets in the home as well as maintain an awareness of open windows/doors and other security concerns. I know how to maintain a healthy balance between play and gentle guidance - especially when outdoors or in the vicinity of other animals.

We have always had friends offer to keep our dog when we travel. This year, knowing they had a lot going on, we did not want to ask. A friend who is a rover pet sitter suggested we find someone in our area. We reached out to several with no success. Then we read Colleen & Sean's profile and felt we had found the family. They responded very quickly, set up a date with a couple of days to meet and, for my husband and I, the right caretakers for our dog. They shared photos and details everyday to us. Since this was our first time with Rover, we were scared at the start and reassured it was the right decision everyday. As we retrieved our dog on the last day, we heard their daughter saying good bye to her, which reaffirmed, she for the week, was family. I highly recommend this incredible family.

Mallory and Max were so wonderful with our pup, Nora! They took care of her for 2 and half weeks while we were out of town. Nora got along so well with their dog, Argos, and she came back so happy!

Matthew with family is very accommodating and will entertain your dog for a great price! They went swimming and on long walks. Executed Ozzie’s food plan and supplements no problem. They sleep in the bed with their dogs which my dog liked. I’ll be a return customer if they’ll have us.

Kerstyn was wonderful with Rexy, and he had a great time with the other dogs. She sent regular updates and pictures, and took him on his first real run. Will use Kerstyn again!

Katherin was amazing! She sent detailed and thoughtful updates about my dog’s stay, giving me at least three updates a day, with such cute pictures! She made sure my dog ate, brushed her teeth, and gave her long walks around the neighborhood. I felt at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands. I recommend Katherin, your pup will have the best stay!

It was wonderful to find Morgan for my older boxer who needed a quiet environment while we were out of town for the holidays. Morgan has older dog experience, took Sugar for gentle walks and sent me pics daily.

Bridgid took great care of our dog and was super easy to work with. She was understanding and flexible with a last minute booking, sent periodic pictures and updates, and we were comfortable knowing our dog was getting personal care like she would at home. We will definitely have Poppy stay with her again. Highly recommend!

About: I have been on rover for two years and have provided countless services to cat and dog owners alike. I love all animals and hope to ease the stress of being away from them. I am currently a junior at American university from university and my schedule is open for taking care of your pets. My most available time is in the mornings weekdays and afternoons on weekends . I have several supplies for cats in my home including but not limited to: food, litter box, and hairbrush. I can always purchase supplies for my home and the home of clients who have dogs. There is also a park not five minutes from my house for walks.

Joseph was very communicative and shared pictures of our pups with us daily. He followed all directions we gave him and made sure our pups feel at home under his care. I would recommend Joseph as a pet sitter and would entrust him with watching our pups again in the future. Thanks for taking care of our babies!

We love Johanna! Millie can be a little anxious and Johanna just takes the best care of her. Johanna is also very responsive and continually sends sweet photo updates throughout Millie’s stay. We are so grateful to have found Johanna!

Walter came home very happy after several nights and was very well cared for — I could tell by his temperament when I picked him up, and how relaxed he was coming home. He is an older dog who gets anxious out of his routine, and Mike treated him very well.

I left my dog Archie with Francise for a couple days and she was great with him! He’s an anxious one and when I went to get him he seemed so happy and comfortable. Francise was great with accommodating me and had great communication while I was away.
