“Lia was great! Our older and anxious cat was very comfortable with her. We got frequent updates and photos and felt very reassured that our cat was in good hands. Our cat needs daily medication, which Lia also took care of without issues. Highly recommended!”
“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!”
“Would 100% recommend Christina she made my baby boy feel comfortable and safe. He had such a great time I could tell from all the pictures and especially when I picked him up. He’s only 7 months old, still potty training, a picky eater and this was my first time leaving him with anyone else so I was EXTREMELY worried but Christina took such great care of him, ensured he was comfy at night time and could sleep well and he didn’t miss a meal which is amazing as sometimes he refuses to eat. Thank you so much Christina!”
“Rodrigo is the best. He is considerate, accommodating, and sends great pictures and updates. My dog Curtis loves visiting for doggy daycare and extended stays.”
“Jasmine and Stormi were great with Roxy. Roxy was transitioning between dog foods during her stay and Jasmine handled it like a pro. I would highly recommend Jasmine for your next trip.”
“Rut was so great with my pups! They seemed very comfortable their entire stay. I greatly appreciated the updates and pictures Rut provided. I’ll definitely be leaving my girls with her the next time I have to travel.”
“Stephanie and Luis were great with my dog, Shipley. I felt like I picked the best possible spot for him to stay while I was out of town. I will definitely rebook in the future!”
“Dylan is fantastic! We booked him to watch our dog Bruno, and he went above and beyond from the very start. He was kind enough to set up a meet-and-greet a few days before our booking, which immediately gave us so much peace of mind and helped Bruno feel comfortable with him. During the stay, Dylan kept us completely updated every single morning with a detailed report of Bruno's behavior and daily routine. The photos he sent showed Bruno looking so relaxed and happy. Dylan is incredibly flexible, a great communicator, and always quick to respond to messages. I couldn't be happier knowing Bruno was in such wonderful company. I recommend Dylan 100%!”
“Jameha + 1 was great. Very communicative (sent me updates, included pictures and videos when contacted). GEORGEv seemed to be happy and was in great spirits when I came to pick her up. Also, not to mention, I was able to get Jameha the night of the booking I needed.”
“Incredible! From the first moment, I knew my pup was safe and loved on. Abigail consistently communicated how he was doing and sent pictures that made my day every day! I highly recommend her services. I have booked with Rover before, but this was by far the best experience.”
“Emme had such a great time. Sabrina was communicative and flexible which really helped us out! Emme loved going to the dog park, playing with Murphy and snuggling up! Thank you guys.”
“Donna provided very special care to Cocoa. She is a senior pup, and we are forever grateful that Donna provided updates as soon as anything of note happened. She was super responsive to all messages, and Cocoa was comfortable for the entire stay. We may not have Cocoa for much longer, and we are grateful that Donna was extra attentive to her needs and provided the best care possible. Many, many thanks.”
“Caitlin was great! We scheduled a meet and greet before our pup’s stay and she was very friendly & accommodating to our schedule. During our dogs stay, she sent a daily update with a few photos & how he was doing. Great experience, 10/10 would rover with Caitlin again.”
“Katie was very sweet with Crusty and he clearly loved staying with her! She is definitely good with big dogs and communicated well with pictures along the way. Thanks Katie!”
About: I am a true Capitol Hill dog lover and I have always had a strong passion for animals, mostly for dogs. I have been caring for dogs since I was child, taking care of my mother’s beloved shitzu. Taking care of her helped me acquire basic canine behavior and taught me the responsibility of taking care of a pet. Most recently I raised my own best friend, Gelato an English Bulldog. I gained my breeder experience with Gelato and cared for her and her 6 puppies, until they were rehomed at 8 months. I enjoy taking long walks, which I consider the ultimate stress reliever and best way to exercise. I have no problem getting my hands dirty. I have 20 years of experience in the customer service field and enjoy striving to provide the best experience to my clients. In my personal time I am spending time with my 2 little girls teaching them how to play sports, and of course how to be loving pet owners. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page! I’m currently working part time and will be available to walk most pets during early mornings hours during the week and mid day and evenings during the weekend. I definitely would like to know your pets temperament, and what might scare them. I know they will feel most comfortable at home but if they are with me, I’d like to keep a calm, pet friendly setting for them to be comfortable in.
“Krista and Kira are WONDERFUL! Clearly great dog lovers and were so sweet with our senior tripod. He was clearly so happy and relaxed with them and that made being away stress free! Thank you SO MUCH!”

“Caleb was fantastic—friendly and communicative. Lisboa had a wonderful time staying with him, and having another friendly dog around for her to play with was an absolute bonus for keeping her socialized and active. She came home happy and well-cared for. I would definitely trust Caleb to watch Lisboa again!”

About: Hi, my name is Sofi! I work from home full-time, which allows me to spend plenty of time with pets. I’ve grown up with animals and have loved being around them my whole life. Since moving to the U.S., friends and people in my social circle have trusted me to pet sit, house sit, and take care of their pets, including dog walking. I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex in a very walkable area, close to parks and green areas, perfect for daily walks and playtime. While I don’t have pets of my own, I truly enjoy their company and the joy, energy, and good moments they bring. I’m offering my services on Rover because I love spending time with pets and can provide them with attentive care while I work from home. I’m flexible on cost and cancellations. I’m happy to answer any questions or provide more details about me, you can reach out anytime, and I usually respond quickly. I work from home full-time, which allows me to easily integrate pet care into my daily and weekly routine. My schedule is generally flexible, so I can take regular breaks for walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins throughout the day, rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. I follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and medication if needed, ensuring they are comfortable, safe, and well cared for throughout the day.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have cared for five family dogs, plus my grandparents’ dog when they could no longer take care of him. From daily walks to long hikes, being around dogs has always been a big part of my life. I’m comfortable with different personalities and needs. I’ve worked with a reactive dog, so I’m patient and attentive on walks, and I’ve also helped a dog get to physical therapy appointments, which gave me experience supporting dogs who need a little extra care. Even when I lived abroad, I made sure to stay around dogs by volunteering at a shelter and helping walk them. My housemate even trusted me as the only person to take care of his dog. I’m reliable, observant, and genuinely love getting to know each dog. Whether your pup needs energy-burning walks or a slower, gentle pace, I’ll meet them where they are and make sure they feel safe and cared for. I have a flexible work schedule, which allows me to plan my day around your pet’s needs. Whether that means morning walks, midday check-ins, or longer visits, I’m able to adjust my routine to make sure your pet gets consistent care and attention. I’m flexible and aim to keep your pet’s routine as normal and consistent as possible. In your home, I follow your pet’s usual schedule for walks, feeding, playtime, and rest so they feel comfortable and secure in their environment. In my home, I create a calm, safe space and stick closely to their routine while giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I also keep you updated so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Jefferson takes great care of my big guy. He jumped in for a last minute need and now is our weekly walker. During our first meeting he took diligent notes which showed me his high level of care. Definitely will use again.”
“Jamie is GREAT!! I needed a last minute evening dog walking and Jamie responded quickly and figured out how we could make her schedule work with our request. She was understanding and knowledgeable about our puppy’s training collar and had no issues. Thanks Jamie!!!”
