“Payton and Graham were fantastic with our dog, Indy. They have a backyard he loved playing in, but even more impressive they were able to get his halter on (he's extremely headshy) and take him on actual walks. Videos they sent showed Indy snuggling with Payton in a way he has only done with us before. Communication was excellent, and Indy clearly loved being there. Not only would we book again with Payton and Graham, I'm doing so right now!”
“Tamara accepted my booking on relatively short notice and she provided daily updates and photos, which is always appreciated. I could tell my dog was comfortable and in caring hands. I highly recommend Tamara!”

“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!”
“Mark and his family were great hosts to Raqi. Great communication, a lot of pictures/videos, and she got a ton of exercise and socialization. It was especially appreciated how they were so understanding about our flight being delayed. Will definitely spin the block!”
“Diego, was great caring for our fur babies during our vacation. He communicated with us everyday and provided photos and. videos of our babies enjoying themselves. They appeared to he enjoy him and his roommate. Our babies are spoiled at home and we can tell they received the same attention as if they were home. We really appreciated this. He provided them space both indoors and outdoors for them to run and have as much playtime as the needed. Diego understood their mealtime and gave Apollo extra attention so he would eat as he is normally not a good eater. They Loved hanging out with his puppy CoCo and they all seemed to get a long great. We don’t trust anyone else watching our babies but Diego! Thank you so much for treating our babies like family.”

“Crystal was fantastic! We left our small toy poodle Boba with Crystal for the holiday, and it was as if Boba had the time of her life in a puppy holiday summer camp, with so many nature walks and friends to play with. We are so lucky to have found such a beautiful home for Boba when we travel out of town, thank you!!!”
“Christian truly saved the day for me during a family emergency. She responded quickly, was very flexible, and took such good care of Caia. It gave me real peace of mind knowing Caia was with someone so kind and reliable. I’m very grateful and would absolutely trust her again.”

“Malvi and Andrej were fantastic sitters for our two boys. It’s clear that they not only really love to care for dogs, but they are extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and responsible. They sent plenty of photos and updates, asked all of the right questions — we were very much reassured that our boys were being well cared for.”
“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.”
“My dog was extremely well cared for at June’s! Banks had a blast with a new friend and looked totally at home! June is great with communication and sends great updates. Will book again for our next need!”
“Ayla was incredible!! This was my first time ever using Rover, as well as ever leaving my puppy with someone while I was away.

I will definitely be rebooking with Ayla!”

Joe was very communicative, quick to respond, and flexible with pick-up / drop off. Truly the best dog watcher I've used in the city, and that's including the big chains. I'll definitely be using him again”

“Amber is very professional, while maintaining a jovial demeanor. I thoroughly enjoyed our discourse, and her care of my cats. She was very thorough, responsive and kept me updated on their goings on whine I was away. The cats were immediately at ease with her, and loved her, which was very important to me. 10/10!!”

“Mikela was very personable and very communicative when we did our virtual meet and greet. Our kitty is very old and needed some extra care and she was very understanding and helpful about it. We were away with no service except for emergencies/ rare service spots so when we were able to check in she was very fast with responding and giving us updates. We super appreciated her and her attention to detail and how well our little old lady was cared for. We would absolutely book her again. Thank you Mikela!”

“Wonderful sitter! Reliable, consistent and very responsive. You can’t get better than Delina 🥰 She’s the best! Our international flight got cancelled so we asked if she could cover taking care of our Cookie an extra day and she graciously took on the task last minute! I will forever be grateful 🥲”

About: I’ve owned cats for the last 25 year, and I’ll gladly look after yours the same I would my own. I understand some cats move at their own pace, so I won’t force interactions. I have experience with administering medication.
About: I've taken care of dogs and watched after dogs almost all of my life. From my god mother's Rottweiler, Sisters Black Lab, my best friends Boston terriers a labradodle. Your pup will be in great hands with me. I work from home so I have no issue with being in the house with your dog. My community is very pet friendly with not 1 but 2 dog parks that allows for exercise and fresh air. I work full time from home, and have a very flexible schedule. Usually while watching pets for friends I'll go for a morning walk for bathroom needs, around lunch we'll take another quick walk and game of fetch and one more walk in the evening before the sun goes down. I care for pets depending on what you as the owner recommend. For my dog nephew, we only feed him at 4pm (put food in the bowl) so that in the mornings and nights when we take him out to do his business he's good to go. I like to have a toy or bone around for them to chew on while I work, but once we go out side I make sure we're getting some fresh air for at least 30minutes to an hour.
About: Hi, I’m José! I recently graduated from Rutgers University and moved to the DMV area to pursue a career in public service. I grew up surrounded by animals, so caring for pets has always been a natural and important part of my life. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust to keep your pet safe and loved while you’re away. I know every cat has their own personality and needs, and I’ll take the time to make sure they feel comfortable with me. I’d be happy to be your cat’s new best friend while you’re away!

“This was my puppy’s first time at doggy daycare, and Jayla was amazing! She made me feel completely comfortable, kept me updated throughout the day, and sent plenty of photos. My pup had a great time playing and socializing with another puppy. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience — highly recommend!”
“I appreciate all of Denisha’s efforts to try to accommodate my dog’s needs. It did not turn out working out but that’s due to my dog’s own personal special needs and needing more individualized special care. Denisha was very patient and honest during my dog’s care. Some sitters do it for the financial gain but I could really tell that Denisha genuinely cares for the dogs that she sits. She was responsive and provided frequent updates/pictures. I really am thankful that she cared about my dog’s comfort and tried to accommodate her needs. I would definitely recommend Denisha!”
“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.”
“It has been such a blessing to find Diego!! Not only is he professional, he is very kind and loving with my baby Bruno. I really appreciate Diego’s willingness to be flexible and accommodating if I need to make last minute changes or requests. His home is lovely with a big backyard that Bruno loves. Having Diego as a sitter has provided me with peace of mind knowing my dog is getting great, attentive care and I no longer feel the guilt of having to leave him alone for hours. I highly recommend Diego - you won’t be disappointed!!”
“Theresa was amazing! Rosie had a great stay with her and T'Challa. Everything went perfectly, I'm so grateful that Theresa took such good care of Rosie while I visited the National Mall.”
About: I've cared for animals my entire life, from small pets to large farm animals, and even helped on my aunt's farm growing up. My love and compassion for animals is what sets me apart. My dream is to become a veterinarian and one day open my own veterinary practice, so you can trust that your pet will be treated with the same care and attention I'd give my own. Im currently working part time at home and looking for anyway to workout during the week so I have a lot of time space and energy to run around and love your dog while being gone. My pit bull puppy does not live with me or stay at the residence but my 6 month old cat has a crate available if needed, but she usually has free roam of the house since there are no other pets in the home. She's very friendly and loves small children and other animals. I give her plenty of love and attention every day, and I truly treat her like my own baby!
About: I had a dog named Buddy that I loved deeply for 16 years. Buddy passed away two years ago and it has been difficult moving on without him.I am looking for opportunities to dogsit for companionship and an excuse to be more active. I have dogsat for family many times and have experience caring for a range of ages and breeds. I am most familiar with caring for senior dogs. I work fully remote and will be able to be with your baby throughout the day. Please consider me you new sitter! Pet care fits into my daily routine, since I work from home, I’m able to take care of the dog during the day and night. I typically wake up pretty early and keep a regimented schedule throughout the day. I make sure the dog is walked. I make sure that I spend a little time playing with them if they’re older dogs and I spend a little time rubbing them or petting them. Some dogs don’t like all of that so you really have to pay attention to what type of dog you’re getting. Luckily I love all dogs so it’s all fun for me.
About: I’m a dog owner myself, so I understand how important it is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have experience with feeding, walks, playtime, basic grooming, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I’ll always follow your specific care instructions while giving your pet plenty of attention and affection. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and overnight care depending on your needs. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pet’s normal routine is followed as closely as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, and any special care requirements you provide. I keep pets supervised, make sure doors and gates are secure, and provide a clean and comfortable environment. I’ll also keep you updated so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and well cared for.
About: I’ve cared for my own dog for the past 10 years, and being a pet parent myself has taught me how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. From daily walks and playtime to feeding, bathing, and giving lots of love, I treat every pet like my own. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. If your dog loves belly rubs, squeaky toys, or just relaxing on the couch, I’ll make sure they feel right at home. I work from home full-time, which means your pup will have plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays, and can provide regular walks, playtime, and check-ins based on your pet’s needs. Your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches—they’ll have company, comfort, and care all day long. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment with plenty of space for your pup to feel comfortable and safe. Since I work from home full-time, I’m able to give your dog lots of attention and regular walks throughout the day. I don’t have any pets of my own right now, so your dog will get my full focus and care. I can also crate your dog if needed and follow any specific routines to help them feel right at home.
“Melanie was so wonderful with my foster dog Betty! Melanie was attentive to her needs, really responsive, and able to work with me at short notice. Betty will definitely be coming back to hang until she finds her furever home!”
About: I’ve owned and cared for animals for most of my adult life. I’m the Go-to person whenever anyone I know needs a pet sitter/walker. I’ve personally owned and cared for senior pets with special needs and have a great reputation as a reliable and responsible person. I’m currently unemployed and I have ample time to make your pets happy and feel loved while you are away or working. Most of my friends say that their pets ignore them when I’m around because of all the love and affection I show them. I live in a large apartment and I have many places close by where I can walk your dog and make sure they are safe and sound while getting their daily exercise. Cats have lots of space to chill out or cuddle up with me whenever they want to.
“June has been taking care of our pup for most of her life (2 year old Shih Tzu)! Not only is she a super experienced sitter/caretaker she’s also truly happy to have our pup with her! Shes now “Aunt June” and Pepper LOVES staying with her. June also has a wealth knowledge on dog care and health and really helped us figure things out as first time dog owners. Can’t say enough good things about June!”
“I cannot recommend Melissa enough! From the very first booking, she has been reliable, communicative, and incredibly attentive to my dog’s needs. The updates, photos, and videos she sends always give me peace of mind and make it clear that my puppy is not just being watched, he is genuinely being cared for and loved. Archie absolutely adores her and gets excited every time he sees her. She creates a safe, fun, and engaging environment, and it’s obvious that she treats every dog in her care like family. Melissa goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. What truly sets her apart is the extra effort and thoughtfulness she puts into caring for the dogs. For Archie’s first birthday, she hosted a birthday celebration with the other dogs in her care. Seeing him celebrated with treats, friends, and adorable photos was such a great feeling and meant so much to our family. It was one of those moments that reminded me how fortunate we are to have found someone who genuinely loves what she does. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, trustworthy, responsive, and will care for your dog as if they were her own, look no further. We are so grateful to have found her, and Archie is always excited for his next visit.”
“Sonja was amazing and helped us out short notice. Our sweet Boomer has anxiety and she was understanding and accommodating with him. She kept us updated with his walks and potty breaks. She promptly responded to messages and sent photos of him settling in. Boomer goes everywhere w us, but couldn’t today due to a last minute trip change, and us having to check out of the hotel. When dropping Boomer off, we immediately felt comfortable with Sonja. We knew that we could leave him w her, enjoy the activity we had planned, and know he was in good hands. 10/10 recommend her and would 100% use her services again when in town.”
“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!”
About: Experienced With Dogs Big & Small 🐾 I’ve been a dog owner and caregiver for years. I previously cared for my small-breed dog, Patchy, for five years, and I now care for two beautiful Huskies. 🐶🐶 This has given me hands-on experience with dogs of very different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with energetic dogs, daily walks, playtime, feeding routines, and giving each dog the individual attention and care they need. I’ll treat your pup with the same patience, love, and responsibility I give my own!

I genuinely enjoy being outdoors and spending time with dogs. Since I’m offering dog-walking & daycare services only, I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate my time and attention to making sure each dog gets a safe, enjoyable, and energetic walk. 🐾

Whether your pup loves a leisurely stroll or has lots of energy to burn, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while they’re with me.

“Gabrielle was very responsive and they were accommodating of my wanting an initial meet/greet introduction. They let me know when they arrived and again when wrapped up the walk; gGreat service. Thank you!”
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to check in with, feed and play with their pets. During the summer it was all I did. I’m currently unemployed so I want to have as much fun as I can with pets before I go back to school and work. Well I don’t care for pets in my home but eventually when I have my own space I would absolutely adore sharing my space with everyone’s pets.

About: Hello there! My name is Romon, you can also call me Griz. I suppose my friends see me as the momma or papa bear of the group haha. Anyway I've been taking care of my friend's, family's, and of course personal 'furry best friends'. I have a background in personal training and fitness. Never really ran into a dog that didn't like or respect me at least after the first couple treats or games I was able to play with them. Recently lost two friends one moved away the other, Sasha; a poodle mix of 12 years, passed away I was luckily able to spend more time with her during 2020 before she had to go. Her memories are still with me and I know many are back to work and wish they could spend more time with their newest pups. We can work together to make sure they're, well taken care of, and I just wanted to help out and lessen the load of watching over these wonderful epitomes of joy and energy. I've walked, sitted, played with, slept besides, and even cleaned up after all sorts of dogs from puppyhood to very senior dogs, 10lbs to 100+lbs believe it or not, can't seem to get a break from them, which I don't mind! Lastly I hope to get to know your fuzzy yet amazing family members on a professional and even better, personal level. Feel free to message for any questions I pay very close attention to any special instructions. I've recently found great streams of income im able to maintain at home while working on my online degree Fortunately my major for the 3rd semester in a row is online only. My schedule is pretty open and flexible so I wanted to make the most of my situation and again the main thing is to help out new or out of practice pet owners. Im free at all hours of day and night outside of a select few evenings where I train clients to achieve their fitness goals. Mostly online so feel free to reach out and schedule with me if youd like recurring services. We'll make it work. Im a capable and loving pet owner that doesn't mind breaking a sweat. I would love to keep your fur baby busy AND happy whether its a small walk with portable water bowls, at home self made doggy puzzles to keep their minds sharp and busy, even if I am tired, for those longer sessions. I have access and experience to great doggy parks equipped with fencing and great walking areas, and lots of car space for those longer trips or incase of an emergency where I have to safely transfer your fluffy children quickly. I have a lot of experience to share and rely on too much to list here but go ahead and quiz me at Fanaticallymotivated email on google for those of you new or unsure of my services with the Rover service provider. I hope to work with you both and take care of any worries.

“Payton and Graham were fantastic with our dog, Indy. They have a backyard he loved playing in, but even more impressive they were able to get his halter on (he's extremely headshy) and take him on actual walks.

“Joe was such a great host for Barnaby while I was on work travel. He took Barnes on walks/runs each day, had him socialize with other dogs, and always sent me an update with pictures. Joe was very communicative, quick to respond, and flexible with pick-up / drop off. Truly the best dog watcher I've used in the city, and that's including the big chains. I'll definitely be using him again”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Jenna was kind, communicative, and loved Maverick like her own dog. We’re grateful for her, and Maverick can’t wait to spend time with her again!”
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.
“Terrance was an absolute lifesaver for a last-minute overnight stay with my pup, Zulu. He was extremely communicative throughout the entire visit and made sure Zulu got along well with the other dog in his care. Zulu came back relaxed, happy, and ready for a nap which tells me he had a great time! I was on the hunt for a reliable backup sitter, but it looks like I’ve officially found my go-to for weekend stays. I can’t wait to book with Terrance again!”
“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!”
“This was my second time leaving my rescue dog, Tao, with Rouday, and both experiences have been great. He was understanding of Tao's occasional timidity after being bounced between multiple shelters as a puppy. I also appreciate that he makes dog sitting a family affair, which has been great for Tao's socialization. I'd definitely recommend Rouday to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter!”
“Alli was a really wonderful sitter for Peanut Butter. She was incredibly responsive during the booking process and was flexible with the pickup and drop off times. We would definitely book her in the future!”
“Melanie is so great with Barton! She keeps him on his normal routine and makes sure he feels loved. I love that I can drop Barton off with her and don’t have to worry about whether he’s going to be taken care of. 5 stars!”
“Caitlin took care of my small dog at her house when I took an overnight trip away. she sent so many pictures and videos of my dog. having fun, cuddling with her in bed, playing and taking lots of walks! My dog was of course happy to see me when I got home, but I think she misses Caitlin already! I would very strongly recommend. Caitlin as a dog sitter who will love and care for your dog as if they are her own!”
“Rodrigo was a lifesaver on multiple occasions in just a few short days - accepting a frantic last minute booking I had when some plans fell through and being very patient and helpful dealing with unexpected travel delays on my return. Plus I could tell Watson had a great time and got along super well with the lovely Luna. I have actually already booked again as I knew Watson is in good hands. Thanks Rodrigo!!”
“Vania and her family took great care of my dog Winnie and provided updates/photos often during her stay! They were also so flexible when I experienced travel delays coming home. Winnie came home tired and happy!! Will definitely book with Vania again! :)”
“I highly recommend Juan and Felipe! They sent daily updates on how my dog was doing and kept me informed about his condition. They are extremely reliable, and as dog owners themselves, they clearly know what they’re doing. Very caring and loving. I would definitely use their services again!!!!”
“Tasha was wonderful with Coconut and as a veterinary technician is very knowledgeable. She took really good care of Coconut and got her out on walks before I picked up which was greatly appreciated.”
