“Colleen and her family took wonderful care of my dog. She is a very trustworthy and conscientious dog mom. I appreciate that her home has a fenced yard. She also was able to administer daily high drops to my senior dog. I received updates and photos. Thank you Colleen and family!”
“Meet and greet allowed us to have the pets meet and plan. Our Dogs stay was great. She fit in easily and was happy to play with their family. Pictures daily were cute. We will book again when traveling.”
“Great photos of our elderly cat, relaxing, cuddling, and enjoying her pampered visit. Sonya went above and beyond to swing by our house and pick up medicine we'd forgotten. Great peace of mind knowing Maya was in safe, capable hands!”
“We’re so thankful for Alex and Daniel. Ella adores them and we can always trust that when we’re away, she’s in the very best of hands under their care.”
“My dog Tako was extremely well taken care of and I got frequent updates. Shanilka was very easy to communicate with and she was very flexible as my travel plans changed due to the weather. I will absolutely be using her again if I ever need!”
“Our pup stayed with Chad and his wife for two weeks while we visited family. It went absolutely smoothly with no issues. We will definitely reach out to Chad the next time we go away.”
“Murphy spent 2+ weeks with Jeff while we were out of the country. Jeff provided regular updates and took excellent care of him while we were away. Murphy had so much fun playing with the other dogs too - it was a great experience all around.”
“Melissa was great! Communicative, friendly, sent pictures, and my pug came back happy and tired (in a good way) after his weekend with her. Would definitely book again!”
“It is impossible to explain how amazing Angie was with our dogs. It felt more like a friend watching our dogs with the amount of love and care she provided which showed through all of her many pictures and messages to us. One of our dogs is 15-years-old and while I was nervous leaving her anywhere while we were gone I am thankful I did. Angie even discovered how to easily have her take her daily meds, something we have struggled doing for the past 12 years. A miracle! Our flights were delayed and cancelled causing us to arrive home a day later than expected and Angie took it in stride, being available to watch our dogs until we made it. I could continue for days listing all of the reasons why Angie is the perfect doggie sitter. I have zero complaints in any regard to our experience and I cannot imagine having anyone else watch our dogs in the future.”
“We have used Austin and Majid on multiple occasions (and already have them booked for our next stay.) Francis is always so happy when he recognizes that we are on their street. They take great care of him and are glad to have a safe place for him to be when we are away.”
“Nicole was amazing! She has been a great communicator, took pictures of my dog and some of those are my favorites of my doggo right now, and when she thought my dog might have an injury she let me know to call to see what I felt the next steps were. My princess looked so happy within Nicole’s care and she had fun with the other pups too. Thank you Nicole!”
“Kamille and her son were incredible dog sitters for our pups (large 10 year old and small 15 year old). She sent multiple videos everyday along with updates, was accommodating for pickup/dropoff, and responsive whenever we had questions or just checked in. She administered eye medication and catered to specific activity needs. We were nervous using a new pet sitter but our minds were quickly put to ease so that we could enjoy vacation. We could not speak more highly of Kamille and absolutely recommend her services.”
“Rebecca was absolutely wonderful. My dog stayed with her for 10 days and had a great time. She took daily walks and weekly hikes, which he loved. She also understood my anxiety about boarding him for the first time and was willing to do meet him multiple times beforehand. Plus I could tell she bonded with him and formed a genuine connection, which is the best situation when you have to be away. She was kind and had a very calm energy while doing the activities needed to keep a high energy dog manageable. Honestly was a great experience and would highly recommend..”
“OMG where do I begin. Ms. Crystal is AMAZING!😍😍😍😍😍 From beginning to end our experience was top notch and extremely professional. She began with meeting us virtually prior to our booking date to detailing what she offered and what was to be expected. Everything she stated was true. She treated our fur baby🐕 as her own! She took our baby on nature wallks, sent pictures daily and checked in with a refreshing text message of the details of our pups day. She even gave valuable insight on our pups behavior, calming techniques for her anxiety and personal experiences from 24 years of knowledge which we happily soaked up. This was our first time with Ms. Crystal but she now our go to. Our fur baby just loves❤️her. We would recommend her to everyone!”
“Nadia was spectacular! She walked Ginsburg regularly and kept us updated on her activities, most regularly with photos. She wanted to send more updates, but I shared that it was unnecessary. Periodically would be fine. As a new owner of a 6-month-old puppy, and a first-time boarder, I know that puppy-energy can sometimes be a challenge. Nadia took it all in stride, providing a safe and suitable environment…and assuaging any trepidations we may have had as first-time Rover users. Thx, Nadia!”
“Julijai was amazing with Dakota and I already booked her for the next weekend! Great at communicating but also respecting my time while on vacation. Got lots of pics of my pup and I know she was having a blast!!”
“Aaron and Paweena were lifesavers. We had a last-min trip and needed to find someone to watch our dog, Nox, on short notice, and we are so glad we found them. It was clear Nox was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. Honestly, we are pretty sure she was more upset about leaving Aaron and Paweena than she was about being away from us, which says a lot. We would absolutely trust them with Nox again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind, reliable, and communicative sitters.”

“Ryon was amazing with our kitties! We cannot recommend Ryon enough. Going out of town is always stressful with 4 kitties at home, but Ryon eased our anxiety by sending daily photos and detailed updates, which was truly appreciated. Ryon clearly spent quality time playing with and comforting our pets. We returned home to four happy, healthy and relaxed animals. Professional, punctual, and a true animal lover, thank you Ryon!”
“Janis was wonderful house sitting for our cat Toastie while we were away on vacation. She stopped by for a meet-and-greet before, and it took no time for Toastie to warm up to her. Janis was excellent with communication. During her stay, we received regular updates and pics to let us know everything was fine. Janis was also responsible and took very good care of Toastie. We will be happy to schedule her again!”
“Kim was so wonderful with our little guy! She got us in last minute, worked with a complicated eating schedule, sent loads of pictures and was incredibly communicative the entire time. 10/10 would book again!”
“Kelsey was fabulous. Sent lots of pictures of our cat over the week we were gone. I could tell she was happy to see Kelsey when she stopped by. I would highly recommend Kelsey for any of your pet care needs!”
“Coralie took great care of my two cats. I appreciated that she sent pictures of each visit, and my apartment was in good order when I returned. She even picked up packages for me. I would gladly use her again.”
“Thanks Carla! Carla did a wonderful job taking care of our two kitties. She was communicative throughout the week and they were happy and well fed when we came home.”
“Kaylynn was very observant and attentive to my Buddy’s needs. Greatly appreciated her going the extra step to ensure he was well taken care of and kept my mind at ease knowing he was in good hands Highly recommend and will use in the future. Thank you Kaylynn!”
“Erica, we want to thank you so much for taking excellent care of our 4 cats. Erica was checking in on our cats twice daily for the week we were on vacation. She arrived right on schedule each day and fed and cared for our cats, and before checkout sent pictures from each visit. When we arrived home our pets were happy and well cared for, thanks to Erica. I highly recommend Erica to anyone who is looking for a reliable, honest and trustworthy caretaker for your pets.”
“Could not have picked anyone better to watch my kitty!!! This was my first time using the rover app and I’m so glad I found Lynleigh! Lynleigh was professional, kind, and a wonderful friend to my Masha. I was a little nervous because I had never had a pet sitter before, but after meeting Lynleigh I knew my little girl was in the best hands!”
“Claudia was so helpful and thoughtful. She watched our cat over the thanksgiving holiday and kept him company. When we lost power, she offered to monitor our fridge and freezer. So caring and kind!”
“Thank you so much for taking such good care of our three cats in a complex setting with the medical needs of one of them. We felt so much trust that everything would be OK while we were away thank you thank you.”
“Oliver was great!! Very professional, sent pictures and short little stories about all visits. Our 2 cats were clearly very comfortable, we will definitely reach out again next time we’re out of town.”
“Michael was very diligent with Rouge, and thorough with his responses and went the extra mile when caring for her. He left the apartment in better shape than he found it. He is very knowledgeable about cats and an amazing caretaker!”
“Jared was fantastic with our crew! We have a dog and cats who are pretty wary of strangers, but he was so patient and totally respected their boundaries. He eased in slowly and the results were great—everyone was happy and relaxed. The communication was awesome, and we loved getting all the updates. Plus, a huge extra thanks for cleaning up some cat vomit on our bedspread while we were out—definitely went above and beyond!”
“As always, Danielle goes above and beyond. She cleaned the cats litter boxes without asking and my cats get very excited to see her. Even the one who takes a while to warm up to strangers. Very reliable. And she sends pictures. Very grateful for Danielle.”
“We’ve had Astrid cat sit for us 4 times now and she is THE BEST!! She is so sweet and accommodating, trust worthy, and you can tell she really loves and adores our animals. She also sends the cutest pictures. If you are wondering whether or not to book her, DO IT!! She is so wonderful. Thanks Astrid :)”

“Cal and Kelly are just amazing. They provided a warm and welcoming environment that Toby just loved. They are very friendly and provide great photos so I knew that Toby was doing great! Definitely a star team!”
About: My Golden Lab, Grace, was my best friend. She escaped from a puppy mill at 3 months old and I had her ever since. Dogs offer such unconditional love and the chance to repay that even a little bit is rewarding. I work full time in mental health close to home. I have a flexible schedule that allows me a lot of free time and the ability to make my own schedule. I love reading, writing, cooking and exploring my new city I now call home. I'm also experienced in taking care of bunnies as well and have sat over 10 clients. I love chilling with them while reading! I mean, it’s a fact that floppy bunny ears are the cutest thing ever, right? I think Bill Nye the Science Guy taught me that. My experience with pets over the years has taught me that they often act out when they don’t feel comfortable. They also sometimes show aggression or fear in new circumstances. This is all totally normal! My first focus is always allowing a visiting pooch to scope out the place at their own pace without any distractions. This allows them to feel as comfortable as possible. I stay close and keep a special eye on them in case they’re telling me with body language that they’re upset, scared, hungry or just want some outside time! I learned from Grace that all animals deserve compassion and understanding and they’ll feel loved and understood. I would love the chance to provide a home-away-from-home for your doggie that they will love to return to each time you’re away! I work three days of the week remotely, leaving me with a lot of one on one time with your fur baby to cuddle, take a walk, or have a belly rub! When your baby steps into my home, they are now officially in a space they are free to explore without restrict so they can find the most comfortable spot that makes them feel cozy and welcomed!
About: For years, I've been spoiling pups alongside my daughter, Ashley Y., who's a top-rated Rover sitter Now, I'm ready to share my love for furry friends with you! Whether your pup needs senior snuggles or energetic playtime, I'm here to make them feel right at home. Think comfy couch cuddles, endless belly rubs, and all the treats they can handle! (Don't worry, I'll stick to your feeding guidelines.) As a dog grandma with a flexible schedule, my days revolve around running errands and helping my daughter with dog sitting ! I can offer frequent walks, playtime in the park (or my fenced-in yard!), and plenty of one-on-one attention to keep your dog happy and exercised throughout the day. When caring for your dog, safety and trust are my top priorities. I provide a clean, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment filled with toys, treats, and comfy spots to relax. I'm also happy to follow your specific routines and feeding schedules to ensure a smooth transition for your pup.

“Josefa took special care of Indy and treated him with lots of love! She was very quick at responding to me and sent lots of pictures. I would definitely book again with her!”

“Tabatha took absolutely amazing care of our timid dog Beetle. It was Beetle’s first time coming for daycare and, though Beetle was nervous, Tabatha did a great job building a relationship at Beetle’s pace. She was patient and caring with Beetle and provided us lots of photos and updates detailing Beetle’s day and mood. Would 100% recommend!!”
“Yosef is FANTASTIC! He took my request (desperate plea) to sit my pup in the final hour and I couldn’t be happier! Batman was mad at ME to leave and fell asleep as soon as we got in the car. I know he had a great time with Yosef and Law and we’re both looking forward to his next visit.”

About: I’ve owned two dogs in my lifetime and watched others dogs outside of my own as well. I love the doggies and they love me! I currently work from home so I have a lot of time to watch pets who need the attention while their loved ones are away. I leave in a secure apartment building that offers designated dog areas. My apartment itself is big enough for he/she to walk around and be comfortable.
About: I’ve taken care of pets all my life! I helped raise and take care of a Golden Retriever for 14 years in my childhood home until she passed away.

I will approach your pet in a calm and slow manner until they feel comfortable with me. I have a fenced yard. My neighborhood is great for walks. Also depending on your preference with dog park/ walks, I typically take dogs for a 30 min walk (of course each dog is different in taking their time I fully respect that). If your dog is comfortable at the dog park, I’d love to take them there as well! My dog park is 20 minutes away (walking).I can accomodate dogs in crates or dogs that sleep on dog beds. In case of an emergency, I will always contact you first and take your pet to your preferred vet. I have a jeep which your dog will feel really comfortable in, so I am able to get your pet to whichever vet quickly!

About: Hi! My name is Aubrey, and I’ve been pet sitting for over 5 years caring for all kinds of animals — from household pets to farm animals. I have experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels, whether they’re playful puppies and kittens or senior pets needing extra patience and care. I’ve also raised two puppies of my own, so I’m very familiar with puppy care, training, routines, and the patience and attention young dogs need. As a college student and future grad student at UMD, I have a very flexible schedule, especially over the summer and into next semester. I’m available for overnight stays, daily check-ins, walks, feeding, medication administration, and giving your pets plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I understand every pet has different needs, and I always make it a priority to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! As a college and future grad student here at UMD, I have a flexible schedule with availability for overnights, walks, drop-ins, and pet care. I always make sure to ask questions not only about your puppy but your house and regular routines. Health in animals is very important while you’re away so I always ask to have detailed notes or instructions.
About: I am a lifelong pet owner and animal lover with over 25 years of caregiving experience. I have had dogs almost continuously since kindergarten ranging in size from a 5 lb poodle mix (Trooper) to a 95 lb yellow lab (Nala), in addition to 3 years as a parent to 2 cats, Jules and Gemini. Jules was with us only briefly due to her advanced age when she was adopted, while Gemini is a much younger kitten who wasted no time claiming my home as her own. I also recently lost my 10 year old corgi (Sadie) unexpectedly to an extremely aggressive form of cancer, and so would love the opportunity to spend some therapeutic time with your furry kid. Prior to beginning work through Rover, I have several years of experience caring for cats and dogs for a variety of friends, family, and neighbors including everything from drop-in visits and dog walking to full-time house/petsitting. Outside of my petsitting duties, I am a PhD chemist working hard to make the battery in your phone last longer and your electric car drive further. My wife and I moved to the Silver Spring area in 2024 for her job as a television producer and I am in the process of establishing myself in the DMV research community. Availability: Except in special cases, I am available for booking at any time of day, any day of the week. I am happy to provide everything from drop-in visits to extended overnight stays. I am currently working part-time from home, so I am excited to have the opportunity to care for your pets at any time! This can include drop-in visits to your home, overnight stays with your fur baby, and day-care or boarding at my home (as long as they're friendly with my cat Gemini). I am glad to visit your home as frequently as you prefer. All visits will include checks for water quantity and freshness, any prescribed food refills or walks, and of course play time. I'm also happy to provide overnight care for your pets and home if preferred, please send me a message if you are interested in more long-term visits. I'm also very happy to host your pets in my own home! I have plenty of room for cats and dogs up to 50-70 lbs. Both my wife and I have had pets our entire lives and between the two of us, someone is nearly always home to supervise and provide any needed care. Since I live in an apartment complex, I do not have a private yard but do have plenty of communal space for walks and other outdoor activity.

“Jane was great! I could tell from how relaxed my little boy was when I got home each day that he felt really comfortable with her. Her walks were always on time, she sent photos and responded to questions I had about my dog’s health. I would definitely recommend her.”
“Zada communicated with me about my little guy and how his walk went. I could tell from her feedback that she was very aware of his sensitivity to sound and overall overstimulation from the city. Despite his sensitivity, she was patient with him and let him continue to explore on his walk. You definitely want Zada walking your fur babies :)”
“Trinity has been an excellent daytime walker for my dog. She’s reliable and communicative, but most importantly she takes great care of my pup. I definitely would recommend her to anyone interested.”
“Gio was an excellent dog walker. She helped me when my current dog walker could not continue walking buddy. She reported all the details of the visit efficiently and gave us peace of mind. She was informative and responsible. This was my first time using rover and I had a great experience thanks to Gio. She has a true love for dogs and what she does. I will definitely work with her in the future.”

“Meet and greet allowed us to have the pets meet and plan. Our Dogs stay was great. She fit in easily and was happy to play with their family. Pictures daily were cute. We will book again when traveling.”
“My dog Tako was extremely well taken care of and I got frequent updates. Shanilka was very easy to communicate with and she was very flexible as my travel plans changed due to the weather. I will absolutely be using her again if I ever need!”
“It is impossible to explain how amazing Angie was with our dogs. It felt more like a friend watching our dogs with the amount of love and care she provided which showed through all of her many pictures and messages to us. One of our dogs is 15-years-old and while I was nervous leaving her anywhere while we were gone I am thankful I did. Angie even discovered how to easily have her take her daily meds, something we have struggled doing for the past 12 years. A miracle! Our flights were delayed and cancelled causing us to arrive home a day later than expected and Angie took it in stride, being available to watch our dogs until we made it. I could continue for days listing all of the reasons why Angie is the perfect doggie sitter. I have zero complaints in any regard to our experience and I cannot imagine having anyone else watch our dogs in the future.”
“We have used Austin and Majid on multiple occasions (and already have them booked for our next stay.) Francis is always so happy when he recognizes that we are on their street. They take great care of him and are glad to have a safe place for him to be when we are away.”
“Kamille and her son were incredible dog sitters for our pups (large 10 year old and small 15 year old). She sent multiple videos everyday along with updates, was accommodating for pickup/dropoff, and responsive whenever we had questions or just checked in. She administered eye medication and catered to specific activity needs. We were nervous using a new pet sitter but our minds were quickly put to ease so that we could enjoy vacation. We could not speak more highly of Kamille and absolutely recommend her services.”
“Rebecca was absolutely wonderful. My dog stayed with her for 10 days and had a great time. She took daily walks and weekly hikes, which he loved. She also understood my anxiety about boarding him for the first time and was willing to do meet him multiple times beforehand. Plus I could tell she bonded with him and formed a genuine connection, which is the best situation when you have to be away. She was kind and had a very calm energy while doing the activities needed to keep a high energy dog manageable. Honestly was a great experience and would highly recommend..”
“Julijai was amazing with Dakota and I already booked her for the next weekend! Great at communicating but also respecting my time while on vacation. Got lots of pics of my pup and I know she was having a blast!!”
“Aaron and Paweena were lifesavers. We had a last-min trip and needed to find someone to watch our dog, Nox, on short notice, and we are so glad we found them. It was clear Nox was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. Honestly, we are pretty sure she was more upset about leaving Aaron and Paweena than she was about being away from us, which says a lot. We would absolutely trust them with Nox again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind, reliable, and communicative sitters.”
“Another great stay with Cori and her pup Bean :) I'm never worried at all about leaving my dog Lily with Cori, she takes amazing care of her dog and treats my dog like family when she is there! Thanks again :D”
“This was my first experience with Rover and my first time using Jackalyn. From the start, she was helpful with answering my questions since I am new to the platform. The communication throughout this process was clear, and she was responsive. I never needed to reach out to her as she kept me up to date throughout the stay. I appreciate the love she's shown my dog and feel confident that she will be our staple sitter from now on.”
“Evan and his wife stepped in at the very last minute to take care of Kobi for the weekend - and not only did they agree, but they were so enthusiastic it felt like I was doing them a favor and not the other way around! Communication was great with check ins during the day and drop off/pick up went smoothly. So grateful to have found them!”
“This is my second time leaving my eccentric dog that expects to be treated like a queen with Danielle and she and her gorgeous kids did not disappoint. Sasha ended up sleeping in the bed between Danielle and her daughter without a worry in the world.🤣🤣🙈🙈. Sasha HATES TO LEAVE HER HOUSE! It’s actually embarrassing! But I guess if I was getting serenaded by Danielle’s daughter and treated like royalty I wouldn’t want to leave either. I wish I could give Danielle 100 stars. She is one in a million.”
“Haydenn took great care of JenniFUR! She’s currently in an anxious stage where new friends and places can seem overwhelming, but Haydenn made her feel right at home!”
“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!”
“Kelly is great. Colby loves her even on our meet and greet. She constantly sent me pictures to show me how Colby is doing and how much fun he is having. I am sure he is missing her and her nice yard right now (plus all the squirrels he can chase or bark at) 😆.”
“Masha and her family were awesome! We have a dog that is reactive to other dogs and requires medication. We really appreciate the care and attention they gave our dog. We got updates and pictures letting us know all is well with him and that was very reassuring. We would definitely love to leave him with Masha and her family again.”
“Once again Nicolle took amazing care of Paco and really came through when we had flight delays. She’s a wonderful communicator and we look forward to booking with her in the future.”
“Brendan did an outstanding job taking care of my two little dogs. He was very communicative, send great pics every day, and my dogs greatly enjoyed snuggling and following him around, haha. He went above and beyond getting to know about each dog’s personality and routine to make them feel comfortable. Highest possible recommendation!”
