Christian was amazing! Accepted my sitting request with pretty short notice after I found out my roommate wouldn’t be able to watch my dog. She also gladly watched my dog for an extra night than was originally planned when my flight got delayed. She sent me frequent updates and pictures of my dog, and it was obvious he was happy and well taken care of. Would definitely recommend her services and book with her again!

Jenna was so great! She was super responsive and sent a lot of photos and updates over the weekend she was watching our dog, Harriet. Harriet had a great time! During a busy traffic time (holiday weekend), she kindly met us at our car for pick up and drop off so I didn’t have to worry about parking. I definitely plan to book with Jenna again☺️

Abigail did a great job caring for my dog over the 4th of July weekend. I was able to relax knowing my dog was in good hands. As a bonus my pup had a great time playing with sweet Stella. Abigail was easy to coordinate with, gave regular updates and also was very knowledgeable about dog play styles/dog behavior. Highly recommend!

Well it’s official — Milan and I have found our new trusted dog sitter! 🐾 We were specifically looking for someone closer to home, and Roxanne and Leo exceeded every expectation. From the moment we connected, I knew Milan would be in loving and caring hands. Roxanne provided consistent communication, daily updates, and the sweetest photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. For the first time in a long time, I was able to fully relax and enjoy my vacation stress-free knowing Milan was not only being cared for, but genuinely loved on and enjoying herself too. Milan truly had a little vacation of her own with Roxanne and Leo! I’m beyond grateful we found them. Finding someone you can fully trust with your fur baby is priceless, and I cannot recommend them enough. 🤍

Lia did such a great job checking in on my cat, Meeko! To say I felt so fully comfortable leaving him in her care would be an understatement. She was able to successfully give him his medicine, which is always a bonus if you have a kitty that requires a little extra care. She also sent a video of Meeko purring so loudly—so clearly he was very happy with her! I would absolutely book with Lia again.

I want to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude to Thomas for being an absolutely wonderful cat sitter. He went above and beyond in every way possible, and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of my kitten. From the very beginning, Thomas was kind, communicative, and incredibly polite. He was always quick to address any concerns or requests I had, and he made sure to keep me in the loop throughout the entire time I was away. Thomas was punctual, considerate, and reliable, ensuring that everything was taken care of without me needing to worry. What truly stood out to me was his dedication to keeping me updated. Not only did he send regular updates, but he even went the extra mile by sending me videos of my kitten, which brought me so much peace of mind. I am genuinely grateful for Thomas’s care and attention to detail. He made sure my kitten was happy and well-cared for while I was away. I highly recommend Thomas to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional cat sitter. Thank you again, Thomas, for everything!

About: I've had dogs since I was a kid and enjoy training dogs and puppies as a hobby. You'll be pleasantly surprised to find your dog understands a new command after staying with me for a few days! I currently work from home most days, so I've taken to this as a way to brighten up my day and help folks in the neighborhood with their pet needs. I am reliable, consistent, and follow owner's care instruction to the letter. I also take on a limited amount of clients to ensure that your pet gets quality care.

About: My husband Galen and I have both had dogs since we were in our teens. We are both experienced in caring and loving for our pups. As a couple we have owned pets together for 13 years. We are a US Air Force Family and have been stationed in DC for the past six years. We love how the community is a dog centric town!! Galen is full remote, meaning your pup will never be alone. We currently have a bulldog named Burrito. Our miniature american eskimo named Mojo unfortunately crossed the rainbow bridge in December 2024. I love our dogs so much I know how nerve-racking it can be to leave your BFF to a stranger. I promise I’ll provide your pet the love and attention they want or need as if they were my own. My husband is full remote and I unfortunately am back in the office full time. Galen will be home with the pups all day. I do an early morning walk and an after work walk while he does multiple midday walks. In the evenings we both are able to take the pups on long walks. We monitor any bones given and are in close proximity during feeding time. We also continuously reinforce good behaviors by pets, praise, and treats if you allow. We only accept one dog at a time. Pups are allowed on the couch. Bundy Dog Park is across the street, if you allow for additional exercise. Your dog will receive lots of pets, praise and love while in our home!

Joey did a fantastic job to take great care of my 7-year-old labrador who had a bit of separation anxiety. I am so grateful with Joey to accept the last minute request after a brief meet up. I would love to use his services again and highly recommend him. Thanks again Joey for your flexibility and patience with Meimei!

About: I love dogs big and small, but have a special place in my heart for the tiny ones. I’ve had yorkies since I was 11 and have a 2 year old yorkie now, named Scotti. So owners can feel confident I’ll take great care of their little ones- I’d love to pet sit for you and get to know your dogs unique personality! Unfortunately I’m very allergic to cats so unable to work in houses with cats. I love meeting new dogs. I work from home most days and I have a 6 lb dog myself, so if I were pet sitting in my own home, he’d be there! With very small dogs, there are special considerations like paying extra attention when you walk them or take them outside knowing runners and scooters might not be able to see them. I’d love to do a meet and greet with your dog first so they’re comfortable. Also, if you’d like to book me for boarding services, I’d love to watch your little one! However, I request that you schedule at least two walks or drop in visits first so I can get to know you and your pet. I’d also like to introduce them to my dog at the end of the second walk. Then I’ll be ready to accept your boarding request!

Holly was absolutely amazing with Stella! Stella can be incredibly nervous in new environments, but Holly showed so much patience and gentle care to help her settle in. She truly went above and beyond to make Stella feel safe, comfortable, and loved. It is incredible to find someone who understands anxious dogs so well. We would definitely be booking with Holly again when we are in town—highly recommend!

About: I have grown up around animals and have years of experience caring for a variety of breeds and temperaments. Whether it’s high-energy puppies who need a long walk or senior dogs who just want a quiet companion, I pride myself on being attentive to their specific needs. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, basic grooming, and ensuring every pet feels safe and loved while their owners are away. As a university student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of quality time to your pets. I am primarily available for boarding on weekends and have open availability on weekday afternoons after 2:00 PM. My routine allows for consistent potty breaks, midday play sessions, and plenty of evening attention to keep your pet happy and engaged Safety is my top priority. When pets are in my care, I maintain a clean, hazard-free environment and always follow the owner’s specific instructions regarding exercise and diet. For home visits, I am extremely respectful of your space and keep a close eye on your pet at all times. I am happy to provide regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your 'fur baby' is in good hands.

Absolutely! Here’s your revised review with those thoughtful details included: ⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We were visiting Washington D.C. and needed someone to walk and care for our pup while we attended events. Rut was amazing! She even met us the day before for a meet-and-greet at no charge, which gave us total peace of mind. She came to our hotel and walked our cavapoo twice — she was incredibly professional, accommodating, and kind. She really went out of her way to work with our schedule and timeline. Her communication was excellent, and we felt completely at ease leaving our pup in her care. Highly recommend her to anyone needing trusted and thoughtful pet care in DC

About: Hi! I’m Juliana, a lifelong dog lover and proud mom to Panela, a sweet Yorkie mix, and Milo, my spirited little Chihuahua. Having two very different personalities at home has taught me how to read each dog’s individual needs, energy level, and quirks, whether that’s a high-energy walker who needs to burn off steam or a smaller, more anxious pup who just wants gentle reassurance. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight boarding right here in the DC area. Because I get around mostly on foot and by bike, I know my neighborhood inside and out, including the best walking routes, quiet streets, and nearby parks, which means your dog gets a real outing, not just a quick lap around the block. During boarding stays, your pup will have a calm, attentive home environment and become part of the routine Panela and Milo already know and love. I send photo and video updates during every visit so you always know your dog is safe, happy, and having a good time. I’d love to set up a meet-and-greet so we can make sure it’s a great match before booking! “I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my day rather than being squeezed in around a 9-to-5. For walks and drop-in visits, I’m able to check in for feeding times, potty breaks, and play sessions throughout the day, with flexibility for visits if your schedule needs it. For boarding stays, your dog becomes part of my daily routine, joining me for walks, meals, and downtime at home with Panela and Milo, so they get consistent care and company around the clock rather than being left alone for long stretches. My two dogs, Panela (a Yorkie mix) and Milo (a Chihuahua), are both friendly and well socialized, so your dog will have some good company during their stay. My home is set up to be safe and comfortable for small to medium breeds, with secure spaces for rest and play. I keep a close eye on new dogs at first to make sure everyone settles in well together, and I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine for feeding, walks, and bedtime.

Allison has been such a wonderful walker for my often stubborn and reactive poodle! In addition to weekly walks, she is always extremely responsive in scheduling add-on walks during the week, often at the last minute. She is very flexible and understanding of cancelations and has always provided advance notice of her own need to modify the schedule. She’s the most understanding Rover person I’ve worked with, and her reliability is a huge huge gift to my busy schedule! It doesn’t hurt that my pup seems to adore her and loves his weekly walks!

About: Experience with my own cat but also caring for different pets with different needs. Comfortably does the hard stuff (administers meds, picks up poop and cleans litter boxes) while also giving love, pets, play and attend. Experience with my own cat, foster cats and dogs, and living with dogs of many ages. I work from home with a very flexible schedule which allows me to drop in, work from different places, and move things around for pet care. I’m able to walk, bike or drive to your home with ease. Care and comfort is the main priority. While I have an outgoing chatty calico, I recognize other pets need different attention and approaches. I love to meet pets and get them comfortable with me before a service, and use the advice of the owners to know what works.

Frida was the best and we will definitely be using her again!! She was quick to respond and provided updates each day. Addie had the best time with their dog Love! I was able to go out of town with peace of mind that my baby was in good hands!!

Nico was a great sitter! He kept me updated throughout my dogs stay and I could tell from pictures he was having a great time! He was extremely friendly and professional, responded promptly to any messages, and treated my dog as one of his own. Would gladly rebook with Nico again in the future!
