“This was my first time using the Rover app & im so glad that I did. I recently relocated to DC from TX & was very anxious about leaving Benji with someone knew but Erika made me feel more comfortable by keeping me updated with pics & videos. I think because she has a dog it made Benji more comfortable seeing another dog there. He looked so happy when I picked him up I would highly recommend you all to book with Erika she’s amazing!!!!”
“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!”
“Lia was so attentive to my dog Violet! So great to know she was in such good hands, Lia asked great questions and clearly cared to make Violet comfortable and happy during her stay.”
“Katherin was AMAZING with Wrigley, so thoughtful and attentive. We received very thorough updates and she was quick so ask any questions she had. We had a bit of a snafu with her food and Katherin went above and beyond to make sure she had the right stuff to get through her stay. She was also very flexible with pick up and drop off which made everything with Wrigley’s stay super easy! Will definitely be re-booking for any future Wrigley needs!”

“Everything that my special dog tells me about Supon and his care is 5 stars and above! Bremen tells me in the wonderful photos and captions I receive during his stay that Supon sends me so that I am seeing how much joy and love there is where he is. And, he tells me when he bounds into my arms with total satisfaction of a time well spent. Supon is a special, first-rate, caretaker of dogs like mine - special.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Ryan while we were away on a short trip! Before we even left, he took the time to visit and meet our cats, which instantly put us at ease. During our time away, Ryan provided great updates and made sure our cats were happy, well-fed, and comfortable. We came home to relaxed, content cats - the best sign of all! We would definitely recommend Ryan to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and communicative pet sitter.”
“Allyssa was great with my needy 5 year old cat Ellie. Ellie loves pets, snuggles, and playtime and Allyssa gave her all of the above. I will book her again!”
“Kelley is always quick to respond to messages and ensures she has all the necessary details before her visits. During her visits, it’s clear she takes her time and gives lots of attention. My cat is usually shy/skittish, so I love seeing the pictures Kelley sends of Gerri sitting in her lap or playing with her on the floor. Will definitely book her again!”

“A cat sitter I booked had an emergency and canceled. Luckily, I had been communicating with Skylar, and she kindly stepped in. She was able to pick up the keys from the front desk since we weren't able to meet in person. She was reliable and conscientious. I do wish she'd taken more pictures of the cats and fewer of the litter box and food dish, but she was otherwise excellent.”

About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was 8 years old. I’ve spent most of my life surrounded by cats whether they were mine, my grandparents, or friends. I started taking care of my own cats when I was 8. They had health issues so I’m experienced in giving oral medications. When I was 10 I saved 2 brothers who I’ve taken care of since. I’ve taken care of their litter box, food, and health issues. I have experience working with affectionate, shy, anxious, and energetic cats. I have so much love for cats and lots of experience from my own to others.
“My cat LOVED Gracie! She did a great job caring for her and I really appreciated getting lots of photos and videos. We will definitely book Gracie again.”

“Gregory is a warm, wonderful man who takes such good care of our cat. Having Gregory watch our cat while we are away gives us such peace of mind.”

“Emily is such a great sitter she is accomidating and understadning. Winston loves going there and once he realizes where he is doing he tries pulling me to her building. Safe to say he likes his day care time with Emily”

“Vernon took lovely care of our boy! He was communicative, timely and flexible. He took our request at the last minute and adjusted to our schedule.

I would love to use his services again and highly recommend him. Thanks again Joey for your flexibility and patience with Meimei!”
“They were absolutely amazing with Whiskey! They would send me pictures throughout the day and give me updates which really helped with feeling at ease. I would highly recommend them to dogsit for you!”

“This is the first time that Nina has watched Roxi, and I am hoping it will not be the last! Nina was very flexible on time. Sent photos during the day. I couldn't be happier!”
“Zachary and Christina are the best kept secret in DC. I tried a few other dog sitters when I moved to the area and none are as attentive. My picky dog loves going over and I’m quickly ignored as he scampers inside. They send phenomenal pictures and videos throughout the stay and my guy looks playful and happy in each one, another great sign of these thoughtful sitters.”
About: Widower who recently lost his pups. Seeking canine companionship while I decide what to do going forward. I live in a large loft near 14th and R and have a lot of love to share. I work from home and love to take lots of walk breaks during the day. I work from home, so have a very flexible schedule. I'm also an early riser and love morning walks around the neighborhood. I have a large outdoor rooftop terrace perfect for lazing in the sun. I have a 2 story space but most of the living area is on the first level. I have extensive experience caring for senior dogs and the loft is right at ground level with no stairs to enter.
“Max always takes good care of Ori and Jax. They both love going to him weekly and always come back so tired. Thanks Max for knowing them so well and for the frequent updates.”
“Kat is super kind and attentive! She loves dogs and knows them well. We feel great about leaving Chester with her given how communicative she is.”

“Naa Kuorkor has done an amazing job with Charlie. She’s been detailed with how the walks went and making sure that Charlie is content. She’s consistent with clear communication. I highly recommend her for your dog walking needs :)”
“Tamara walked our dog around the neighborhood and left her safe and happy back at home. She is easy to contact and work with and made sure we felt comfortable leaving our dog child in her hands.”
“Jondle was great with our older (and sometimes stubborn) French bulldog! She was very responsive throughout the entire process and made a point to come meet me and Eloise before she started caring for her.”
About: We’ve both had dogs in our family since we were young and we have our very own, paçoca! She’s a nova scotia duck toller. Her name means little peanut in portuguese and nothing describes her better than that. we love nothing more than to be around dogs. We would love to care for yours! We both work a hybrid schedule and at least one of us is always available to care for, play, and walk pets as many times as needed. We can provide your dog with the exercise they may need, whether it is a morning run, long walk in the afternoon, or dog park visit. We live in a pet-friendly two bedroom apartment with lots of light and space. Dogs we’ve cared for prior really enjoyed laying on the couch/their beds and getting some sun. We live very close to Logan Circle, which is a great, pleasant and green space in downtown DC for dogs to walk and play with other dogs. We love incorporating the pets’ routines into our own and can adapt as needed. Taking them on walks during the day is a great opportunity to take work breaks, get some fresh air, and enjoy the day. Our apartment is spacious and gets lots of sunlight, which the dogs love! It’s also close to lots of nice green areas such as Logan Circle or the S street dog park!
“The pictures I get just show how HAPPY my dog is on his walks. Dominic is flexible, incredibly communicative, and I feel at ease knowing he is talking care of my best boy.”
“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.”
“Leah is great with my Bernese Mountain Dog. He’s a playful, strong 4-year old and no problem for Leah. He has a great time with her and I appreciate the communication. Would use again!”
“Cooper was so excited to see Gracie for their morning walk! This was the first time she had walked him but he recognized her from our meet and greet. He had fun on their walk with his ball and she sent tons of pictures. Thanks so much!”
About: I have a lot of experience with dogs. Since I was 14, I trained my family dog and have been taking care of him for 9 years. I also assisted my brother in training his lab along with dog sitting for neighbors, friends, and family growing up. I’m currently a nurse at a local hospital, and on my days off I love spending time outdoors and staying active. I’m looking to earn some additional income while doing something I truly enjoy—caring for dogs! With a flexible schedule and plenty of free time on my off days, I’m excited to help care for your pup and give them the attention they deserve. I have extensive experience working with animals, having studied them in college and grown up in a family business that operates a doggy daycare. As an active person who enjoys spending time outdoors, I’d love to have a furry companion join me for walks and fresh air. I always prioritize the safety and well-being of every pet in my care, and I understand how important trust and communication are when someone else is caring for your animal—so you can count on me to keep you updated and ensure your peace of mind.
“Yulia was excellent with our dog Beasley! She was punctual, kind, and incredibly communicative -- and sent a thorough "Rover report card" with photos after each walk. Beasley can be anxious and shy around new people, and Yulia was incredibly patient with her. She read the room well, offered plenty of positive reinforcement, coaxed Beasley through stressful moments, and never pushed her beyond her limits. She even stayed a bit longer at the dog park to let Beasley decompress. We can't wait to book her again!”
About: Lover of all animals with experience growing up with dogs & cats. I would love to take care of your baby when you need a hand. Plus, they make me happy! I work remotely so I can do walks or pet care during the week too. Also happy to spend time on the weekends caring for them. I have a cat at home so I’m more than happy to go to your home to take care of your pets when needed. Please leave any instructions on their preferences and quirks!
About: I’ve been a dog lover my whole life and finally adopted my first two years ago! Well before my partner and I adopted our rescue, I was helping out family and friends as a sitter and walker. Whenever I was at a house with a dog, I always wound up being the designated fetch partner. I’m a dedicated caretaker who loves taking my pup around the block, to the park and on adventures. I raised and trained my dog from a puppy and have experience watching dogs ages 1-18! As a dog parent myself, I know how important communication, transparency and, of course, getting pictures of your pup is when you’re away from them. I’m excited to meet, walk and play with more dogs around the district! I work five days a week (M-F) from home, but my schedule is flexible and allows for me to take breaks as needed to tend to my own dog and pop out to care for others whenever necessary. Afternoons are ideal, but I can be available in evenings, mornings and overnight with advanced notice. My dog roams free at home, but she started out crate trained and graduated from there. I’m comfortable caring for a dog/dogs who roam free or are crated and have no issue retrieving them from there and returning them to their space as needed.
About: I genuinely enjoy spending my time with animals and taking care of them. I’ve taken care of many dogs and cats including my own since I was in middle school so for over 10 years now. So naturally I’m familiar with daily walks and feeding schedules and making sure that the pets get the best possible care that they need. I’ve taken care of my friends and family friends cats and dogs including gerbils and many other small animals, making sure that they are fed and comfortable and well taken care of while their own were away and understanding their different needs. As of right now,I have 2 beautiful cats of my own who I cherish so much that I’ve been caring for over 3 years. I’m patient, reliable, and always focused on making sure pets feels safe, clean and well cared for Pet care is already a part of my daily routine since I care for my two cats every day. I’m used to maintaining feeding schedules, cleaning, and making sure they are comfortable and well cared for. I also have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to fit in visits, walks, or check-ins throughout the day. I enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for pets fits naturally into my weekly routine. have two cats of my own who freely roam in a safe and comfortable home environment. I make sure they are well fed, their litter boxes are clean, and that they feel relaxed and cared for every day. When caring for an owner’s pet, I always follow their specific instructions and routines closely. I understand that every pet is different, so I make sure to respect their preferences and keep them comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Pacho had a great time with Nico and his pup Ube! This was my first time using Rover, so I was a little apprehensive, but Nico made us feel so comfortable! He was very responsive and made sure he was equipped with all the info he needed before we went on vacation -- made it seamless while we were away. We received pictures or videos everyday, and there was great communication for pick up. We're relieved to have found someone to watch Pacho and I'm sure Pacho will miss Ube until next time!”
“Max is the best pet sitter I’ve ever hired. He took amazing care of Penny. He monitored her food intake, asked if he could try different methods to get her to eat (mixing pumpkin, etc), and kept me updated on how she was doing and told great stories about her day. I was really impressed that Max had a list of questions to ask me when I dropped her off. He was also ready to play with her when I dropped her off, which eased her anxiety tremendously. I can tell that my puppy enjoyed her time because she wasn’t overly excited to come back to me as she has been with other pet sitters/boarding locations. 😊😅. I will definitely use Max again!”
