“Gregory was fantastic! My cats both have some special needs, and he handled everything very well. This was my first time using a pet sitter since one cat was diagnoses with diabetes, and Gregory made the process as easy as possible (even when my cat did not). Communication was excellent, and his genuine care for cats was clear.”

I loved the pictures she sent me from each visit— she captivated each cat’s personality accurately!❤️❤️ She left the kitchen in perfect order, the cats’ water fountain was full, and she even reset the drying rack they toppled over last night. She’s the perfect pet sitter—the cats were her priority and their environment was exactly like they’re used to. I fully recommend Alex and will definitely leave my cats in her care again.

“I was very pleased and grateful for Suvon’s care for my puppy, Cooper. It was very easy to arrange date and time, Suvon was very prompt and clearly explained what Cooper needs to bring and what I can expect while Cooper’s there (which were all amazing!). Suvon kept me posted very frequently with how Cooper’s doing and sent me amazing photos (ummmm... like studio quality with gorgeous backgrounds). Looks like Cooper had a great time, he came back home and is sleeping like a baby.”

“Matthew was great watching my pup Willa for a last minute doggy day care! He was kind and welcoming during the meet and greet and during her stay, and sent pictures throughout the day to keep me updated. Willa snuggled right up to them for some naps, which is always a sign she feels comfortable, safe, and happy. Will definitely be reaching out again in the future!”

“Thank you so much again for watching my baby 🐶. I will definitely book him again. My baby was very tired, which was a good thing. She got home and ate and went right to sleep.”

“Adriana has been an amazing sitter for Rosie! Rosie is always excited to see her, which gives me peace of mind whenever I leave her in Adriana’s care. She is responsible, reliable, and incredibly accommodating, and I always know Rosie will be well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”

“We’ve had June watch our puppy for many months now and I can’t believe I haven’t sung her praises until now. June has been the best dog sitter and 3rd parent to our dog! She’s communicative, helpful and as a new puppy parent, very helpful in reinforcing training (we think she’s better behaved at Junes!).”

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** **For house sitting you must be ok with my dog Buddy coming with me and staying at your house as well.** 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.
“Once again, Christian knocked it out of the park! Jo Jo and Corduroy were thrilled to learn they were going back to their friend’s house today and they can’t wait to go back. Thank you for your excellent care today, Christian!”

“Roshni took very good care of our dog, who is pretty shy and anxious. Roshni asked great questions about our dog that demonstrated that she is knowledgeable and empathetic about caring for animals. Questions like checking for allergies, confirming emergency vet info, ask about pet preferences, checking for triggers, etc. She was very patient and upbeat as I shared about our dogs less charming quirks. She sent updates and pictures throughout. It was clear our dog was in good company and I was able to focus on my own day without worrying about our high maintenance dog. Will definitely book Roshni again!”

About: I’ve had my own fur and feather babies all my life and taken care of many breeds of dogs, cats, birds (Conures, Lorikeets, Parakeets & Caiques to name a few), And I have been a pet foster home caregiver for over 10 years. I currently walk and board animals in my home, specializing in 1-on-1 care. I have work from home flexibility and I have dedicated hours for spending time with your fur baby if you need pet boarding. I accommodate my schedule to adapt to your pets normal home walking, activity & feeding schedule. Overnight stays include two walks per day, one in the morning and one before bed. Any additional walks are 20$. I provide reliable and loving boarding for cats, dogs, parrots, pocket pets & exotics. I also offer flexible drop off and pickup times. I’m located near Takoma Metro. My home is a low-stress, quiet sanctuary for all pets, especially shy or senior pets. I have experience with dogs, cats, parrots, exotics & pocket pets. I will walk your dog in my neighborhood or to the nearby park. I have a nice yard in which your dog can enjoy fresh air and exercise. I love spending time outdoors while walking dogs! Cats: I am with your cat during the day & set aside play time with them so they can chase ribbons, be rubbed or cuddled. Parrots: I spend quality time with your birds and allow them window space to see the outside world. I only board one animal at a time- unless they are from the same household, ensuring your pet receives quality care. My husband and daughter also assist with the care of your pet. This ensures that they are always cared for and supervised.

Has past experience walking large and jumpy dogs, and lives in very walkable area. Also comfortable playing with dogs to get some extra energy out!

“Anne was a life saver for me and Ghost. I was in a pinch looking for someone to take care of Ghost for the two days I had an in-office training and Anne was super communicative and even did a meet and greet for us. The hour long walks helped break up a lonely day for Ghost and eased my anxiety about leaving him home alone.”

“We hired Rachel to walk our dog for the first time this week, and we couldn’t be happier with how it went. From our initial communication, she was highly professional, punctual, and very attentive to our pup’s routine and needs. She made the whole process seamless. Rachel also shared an update and photos after the walk. Our dog came home happy, well-exercised, and completely relaxed. It’s clear she has a natural way with animals and genuinely cares about our precious angel. We will definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog walker!”

“Sarah was phenomenal. We have a new pup that’s very anxious about strangers in the home and was giving her a hard time barking at her. She was so very patient and stayed longer than was required to work his confidence up to warm up to her. Her professionalism and kindness took a lot of anxiety off of us new dog parents! We will certainly be using her services again.”

“Caris is wonderful with my girls! She is attentive, on time, and leaves great report cards and photos. My girls love their time with her. :) Can’t wait to have her walk them more!!”

About: Hello! I am appreciative of all fuzzy friends, big and small. I have two cats of my own, with loads of dog care experience. I have lots of experience with young puppies, senior pets who need medication (oral pills or otherwise), fickle kitties, and shy pets. I’ve trained three cats from kittens, and can provide care for those still learning litter box manners. I work a traditional 9-5, and wfh 3 days a week. Depending on the day, I can offer a lunch break check in, meal time pop ins, and lots of weekend love! As a visitor of your home, I am open to whatever method you employ for your friend’s safety. I have experience with crate training and am happy to continue your training practices. In my own home, I keep my cats safe by keeping out a toxic plants/food items and practicing general cat safety (no breakables near the shelf edges ifkyk).
“Emily is great. She is kind and patient. I had forgotten to leave out poop bags one day, and she picked it up using paper towels - legit!!!! Thank you for your wonderful service, Emily!!!”

“I am so grateful for Thomas the incredible care he takes of my 3.5yo Great Dane! Thomas is a consummate professional, from diligence with all my requests to even thinking proactively about the weather. He is truly a wizard at capturing action shots, too! His detailed descriptions of the walk and fun pictures are such a ray of sunshine to receive in the middle of my work day. My Dane has some dog reactivity and I am grateful for Thomas’s ability to work around his needs. Thomas has been walking him for two weeks now and I will happily keep booking him for as long as I can.”

“Cassey is the absolute best. She took great care of Chloe on her walks, going above and beyond. Always on time, always communicative, and always willing to help. Your dog is in great hands with Cassey. She knows what she's doing, and out of all the dog walkers I've used on Rover, she is manifestly the best one.”

“I’ve been meaning to leave Dominick a review for some time and my apologies for not earlier. I’ve been using Dominick regularly for the last 8 months. My dog is always happy to see him and when I get home I know he’s had a good walk. I trust Dominick entering and exiting my house without me being there. I know based on my notifications that Dominick is always on time and he communicates very well. If I have any specific instructions whether it is to leave my dog in his crate or to give him a treat before he leaves, I know it’s been done. Typically I use Dominick’s service when I have a busy work day or traveling and he’s a tremendous help in giving my dog (a 15 month old very energetic husky) some exercise. I recommend Dominick 100 percent.”

“Ella was a wonderful dog sitter and I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again! Very thoughtful and thorough check in reports with pictures and a summary each visit - definitely reassured me that my dog was happy and well taken care of while I was out of town. Highly recommend!”

“Michelle is amazing! Michelle took Charlie last minute (literally) to help me out as I had to cover a shift at work. I went with Michelle because we were fortunate to have her walk Charlie earlier this year when I had to go to New York for work. Michelle’s has shown the same consistent care and communication both times. She’s great and make sure to book her if you want to ensure your pet is well taken care of.”

She was very accommodating when my schedule changed as well and didn’t hesitate to help. I highly recommend using her for a quick or long stay!”

We were nervous as it was our first time boarding Benny, but our anxiety quickly dissipated as we got regular updates and photos of him getting lots of attention, playtime, and individualized care. Benny is oftentimes timid, but it was clear that he quickly settled in and was having a blast. I’m so grateful. We can’t recommend Malvi and Andrej enough and look forward to next time.”

“Amy was so easy to work with, replied quickly, sent lots of updates, and returned a very happy and relaxed dog to us at the end of her stay. Would recommend and will be booking again next time Rory needs a sitter!”

It was a great opportunity for us to connect as well. Alli sent updates and pictures of Moose while we were away. He was very well cared for. Will definitely use Alli as a sitter again.”

“Linda was amazing! I had to leave town last minute, and I had to extend an extra night, she made everything super easy and stress-free! It was my first time being away from Khyber and I was worried about leaving him, but she took such great care of him. I received multiple pictures and videos, which I loved! Khyber likes to play rough at times and frequently wants attention/affection. Her dogs were super friendly and immediately welcomed him into the pack! I felt so comfortable leaving him with her and will absolutely book again. Highly recommend!”
