“Our dog Emmy enjoyed her second stay with Sophia while we were in CA. We can relax while on vacation knowing our pup is happy and enjoying her time with Sophia and the other pups. Sophia really understands dogs and even worked on Emmy’s training. Emmy came home even better behaved! We loved the daily pictures while on vacation.”
“Poh Huey is absolutely amazing. She took great care of our dog Belle recently when we were out of town. She was responsive, courteous, and very professional. Huey was genuinely attentive to Belle, which was greatly appreciated. She provides video/photo updates. Her fenced backyard with artificial turf provides a safety and clean playground for dogs. Her two dogs are super friendly. Huey is the best!!”
“Piero took great care of our two dogs during our two-week vacation! He provided photo and video updates and was flexible with pickup and drop-off times. Both dogs were happy and healthy at the end of their stay. We’d happily leave them with Piero again in the future!”
“Marylee did a great job of sending pics of my pup while he enjoyed the deck and some quality window watching. She wrote us a wonderful note detailing the weekend. I could tell he was very happy with his “getaway” outside of the city! :) We will definitely be booking with Marylee again!”
“Tanya and her whole family were absolutely wonderful with our dog, Pippa! She felt right at home from the moment she arrived, and they provided the best care possible. We loved receiving the photo updates Tanya sent—it was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable Pippa was while we were away. Thank you, Tanya, for creating such a kind and loving environment for our pup. We were able to truly relax and enjoy our trip knowing that Pippa was safe, happy, and so well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
“Pam and her daughter were so great with Pancho. They sent me many pictures and updates, it was obvious he was getting lots of love, attention and fun active time. Highly recommend and hopefully Pancho will get to pay another visit to their place!”
“Asher and Olivia had a wonderful time with Jason! We really appreciated Jason's frequency of communication. This was our first time boarding our puppies and we couldn't have asked for a better experience!”
“Oh my goodness…what a great sitter! He communicated regularly, sent pictures often and gave me so much peace with my dog there with him and his family! I have already rebooked him for future dates!”
About: I have had many dogs since I was a kid. My whole family have them as family members. I adopted Colby, a mini poodle, 13 years ago and he recently passed on Mar 7, 2026 due to oral cancer one month before he turned 14 yr-old. I will board ONE NON-SHEDDING dog at a time so I can spend quality time with that dog ☺️ I would love help dog owners to walk, play, and love their dogs while they cannot and get some dog love for myself. I miss my dog tremendously so I am not ready to have another. Let me take care and play with your dogs and make them happy ☺️ I work full-time remotely. I can customize my schedule to fit your needs as long as I am given a notice to adjust (I set my work schedule a week in advanced every monday). I love taking a long walk when the weather permit. 😁 Whatever your dog accustomed to, I can adjust. I live in a one bedroom condo right now. I will provide a safe and loving environment for your dog.
“Chris was amazing! It was clear in all of his photos and videos that our pups were well taken care of, and most importantly, felt safe with him. Our pups got a vacation while we did too! Will absolutely be using Chris whenever he is available. Thank you for taking such good care of them!!!”
“Our dog loved them so much. We were worried how he will stay overnight for the first time without us. He slept well and ate timely. He was being a good boy with Gail & Kris 😊”
“Cooper enjoyed his time with Huan, her family, their dog and the daycare dog. She fussed over him and let me know of any concerns immediately. We also got daily pictures and videos. He came home exhausted.”
“Rong was fantastic! She communicated regularly and Ralphie came home happy. I can’t ask for much more than that! Her dog, Lucky, is also a sweetheart and made a good companion for my dog.”
“Frankie absolutely loves his time with Theresa!!! I love that she regularly shares action pics and checks in to let me know everything is okay. She is the very best!”
“Googly stayed with Iwona for two weeks during our overseas trip and we could not be more pleased with the care she received. We got daily unprompted updates on how she was doing along with multiple photographs. Googly immediately bonded with Iwona’s family and their sweet dog Nubi. Googly seemed relaxed and happy when we picked her up. We have already booked another short stay for Googly with Iwona. Highly recommended.”

“Catherine recently watched our senior cat for an extended period. She did an excellent job providing detailed daily updates. We were so happy kitty was well cared for.”
“Brianne was yet again a great help to my cat Luna and I during the Thanksgiving holiday. It was always a treat to receive her high-quality photos of Luna each day. I could also tell when I arrived home that Luna had enough care and company to keep her very happy while I was away. I highly recommend Brianne to anyone in North Bethesda or Rockville who needs a petsitter :)”
“She took care of my Kitties last minute, and one of them I adopted a week ago and they weren't quite on hospitable terms yet. She allowed them to interact gently while being ready to separate in case of throwing paws. She also followed special feeding directions for my elderly cat who needs stuff mixed in and her pate in an extra soupy mash.”
“Catherine was great. She took such good care of our inside cat Abby and our outside cats as well. She was super responsive. It was good knowing she was caring for our animals while we were away - gave us peace of mind. I highly recommend Catherine.”
“Jennifer just started sitting for our two cats this trip and was wonderful with them, carefully following our detailed written directions and everything we covered in our great meet-and-greet, and had awesome communication throughout. She's so dedicated and we appreciate her love for taking care of furry kids. We are so glad we found her, are grateful for her, and look forward to her taking care of them in the future!”
“Tori was lovely! Very communicative, did each step I requested and documented with pictures! My cat can be a little wary but Tori was even able to coax her out to socialize a bit. Will definitely book again!”
“Andrew is a cat owner who understands senior cats. My cat is almost 16 and rather persnickety, which didn’t faze Andrew one bit. He was reliable, thoughtful and trustworthy in the care of my kitty and I would absolutely hire him again.”
“Melissa took excellent care of our two cats. Our cats are shy and they opened up to Melissa quite quickly. Melissa did a great job at communicating and always made us feel like our cats were happy and safe. She also sent some great photos!”
“Jessica was absolutely wonderful with my two cats while I was away on my honeymoon. I never like to leave them and they can be a bit shy around new people so I was understandably a little worried about traveling but from the moment I met Jessica, I knew they would be in great hands - and I could not have been more right! My cats who are shy with new people, immediately came over to her and loved her, following her around as she fed them and engaged with them. She was so communicative, which put my mind totally at ease knowing my girls were being so well looked after. She truly went above and beyond, and I know who I will be reaching out to should I need a pet sitter in the future! Thanks so much, Jessica! Snacks and Roo say thanks too!!”
“Heather ALWAYS goes above and beyond when cat-sitting for us. She gives our kitties plenty of love and attention, and sends detailed report cards with plenty of pictures! Highly recommend her to anyone with pets.”
“Monika is a very responsive and attentive sitter. She sent us updates consistently everyday and even extended the booking when our return flight was canceled and delayed our return home. We highly recommend her services!”
“Nicole provided excellent care for our two cats! She is so sweet, left great summaries of the visits and sent photos and videos of each drop in. It’s such a relief to know that your pets are well taken care of when you’re away. Thank you Nicole!”
“Dee Dee took amazing care of my kittens while I was gone! She made sure my kittens were loved and happy, and I loved the updates and pictures she sent every day. I’ll definitely work with her again when I need cat care!”
“Britney is absolutely wonderful she walked my dog many times and he was always very happy to see her she talked to him and greeted him with a gentle smile he always looks forward sure coming over Britney also took wonderful care of my cats getting them to eat even though they they they didn't want to because they were upset I was gone I hardly recommend her she is prompt and reliable an extremely trustworthy”
“Will and Andrea kept me up to date on how my cat was doing following each visit by sending a description and pictures. They took my "cat how-to's" seriously. It was a great comfort knowing the cat was in good hands.”
“Theresa was wonderful! She took great care of our kitties when we were away. Kept us updated with photos and descriptions of her visits. Very responsive via text/email. Will happily book again!”

“Shadid is amazing! It was my first time using Rover and I was nervous about leaving my puppy, Rudy, with someone else. From the moment we met Shadid, she was great with Rudy. I was concerned about Rudy getting anxious and being difficult to manage. I realized quickly that I had nothing to worry about with Shadid. Rudy was immediately comfortable with her. I don’t think he even noticed me leave because he was so excited to hang out with Shadid & Pebbles all day. Throughout the day, I received pictures of Rudy at the park and playing. It felt great knowing that Rudy was in good hands and having an amazing day. When I picked Rudy up, he was sad to leave! Rudy can be challenging and usually takes a while to warm up to people, so I was extremely impressed by Shadid’s ability to care for dogs. I would absolutely be comfortable leaving Rudy with Shadid again and am so grateful that I found her. If you love your dog and don’t know which sitter will be best, contact Shadid!! Your dog will have the best day and you’ll feel great knowing he/she is in good hands! From a professional standpoint, Shadid is excellent. I’m in medical school and was taking an exam during Rudy’s stay, so it was important to me that the sitter be professional. Shadid was perfect. She responds quickly and is completely reliable. I strongly recommend her!”

“Huey took such great care of my pupper Winky, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Winky can be super shy at first, so I always get nervous leaving him with someone new, but he got comfortable with Huey so quickly it was amazing! She has two super friendly dogs of her own(a little bichon and a corgi), and they got along so well with Winky which is awesome. She also sent me updates and photos during the stay and it looked like he was completely relaxed and having the best time. I also added on grooming during his stay, since she’s also a home based groomer and did such an amazing job(she told me she has 20 years of grooming experience!!) Winky came home looking so clean and adorable with the cutest haircut! You can really tell she has a ton of experience with dogs and genuinely cares about them. I’d absolutely book with Huey again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, experienced, and caring for their pup!”

“We were very satisfied with Kira’s pet sitting services. From the beginning, Kira demonstrated a strong understanding of animal care, which made us feel confident in her abilities. She was very welcoming to our dog and made him feel comfortable as soon as he arrived. When we returned to pick Scooter up, he was well cared for and very content. Kira had followed all of our instructions and let us know he was doing well. We would highly recommend Kira and will definitely use her services again.”
“Sriju is a wonderful person. She gives fantastic care to my dog when Daisy stays on Wednesdays. I'm very happy to have found Sriju. I know my dog will be well cared for when I'm at work. 🐶🤗”

Krista’s incredibly responsive to my requests and any questions I have. We know Grover’s safe and loved when he visits Krista and Roger’s home!”
“It is a real pleasure working with Jared. The pups seemed to thoroughly enjoy the day with him as they met and played with other dogs. Jared sent photos throughout the day - so nice to see them doing well in a new environment.”
“I worked with Huan for doggy day care while I was away for the day. She was very kind from the start and very responsive to messages and communication. I really appreciate how welcoming she was to both myself and my dog. She ensured that I was comfortable with leaving my dog with her, and made sure to understand any needs for my pup and any concerns I might have had. Was a great experience and I will definitely be reaching out again the next time I need a sitter!”

“It was my first experience with Rover and Brittany and I am highly satisfied with everything.

She is fantastic and I am definitely going to return to her to work with my dog. Thank you very much!”

About: I’ve had at least 1 dog in the house since 2016, I love taking care of pets and being present with them. I love their unconditional love and would love to help as many as possible!🙏🏾 I’m currently a student at Stonehill College and we have scheduled breaks. For now, when I am home on breaks, my schedule is wide open. I have a pretty consistent unofficial routine of going on runs, lifting weights, and hanging out with my girlfriend Personally, I have one dog at home and when I get back I love to take him on long walks. I also just have a mental clock of refilling his food and water. Every other week or so we get him showered and cleaned up. I’ve also helped take care of other peoples pets stopping by and taking them on walks.
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for years through friends, family, and pets I've had the opportunity to care for along the way. Those experiences taught me that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel safe and happy. Today, I'm the proud owner of a Cavapoo puppy, Oreo, which has given me daily hands-on experience with puppy care, exercise, feeding routines, enrichment activities, and positive reinforcement. Caring for my own dog has strengthened my understanding of the patience, consistency, and attention that great pet care requires. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. That's why I prioritize communication, reliability, and regular photo updates so you can feel confident your pet is receiving the same level of care and attention I'd want for my own. Whether your dog enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking to a familiar routine, my goal is to help them feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home. Because I work from home, I'm able to maintain a flexible schedule and be present for the pets in my care throughout the day. This allows me to provide regular walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention while keeping pets comfortable and on their usual routine. My goal is to create a safe, stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Because I work from home, I'm able to maintain a flexible schedule and be present for the pets in my care throughout the day. This allows me to provide regular walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention while helping pets stay comfortable and on their usual routine. I also have a friendly Cavapoo puppy, Oreo, who loves companionship and can be a great playmate for dogs who enjoy being around other pets.

“Victor is great with my dog Marcie! He made sure to ask about everything he might need to know for her. My cat liked him too. Victor is very kind and conscientious and you can definitely trust him with your pet. He will absolutely go above and beyond to make sure they are well taken care of.”
“Hana was great! She was incredibly reliable and communicative, always keeping me updated and making scheduling easy. It’s clear she genuinely cares and goes the extra mile. Highly recommend!!”
“I cannot recommend Jessica enough! She was fantastic with our two older dogs! It was the first time we left them with someone other than a friend, so I was a bit concerned as to whether our little dog (who is very skittish) would warm up to Jessica. I was also concerned because our bigger dog has a lot of medical issues (including mobility problems). Jessica was phenomenal. She arranged some time to come by and meet them and us beforehand. She asked really detailed questions - which let me know she was tuned into their care. She gave great updates on her visits and sent photos, too. Her updates let me know how well she was getting to know their unique quirks and personalities. She kept in touch with everything that came up - and even suggested some things to make our bigger dog more comfortable. I was blown away by the care she gave to our girls! Her thoughtfulness erased my concerns about how the dogs were doing while we were gone. I was able to relax and have a worry-free trip. And our little dog was giving her kisses and greeting her at the door after only a couple of visits! If we travel again without the dogs, I wouldn't want anyone else to care for our girls.”
About: 👋🐕🦺 Hello there! My name is Anh. I retired from my pet daycare attendant job years ago. Now I'm working my heart out to build my own business ventures while getting back to my love for pet care. Working as a pet attendant has not only enforced my love for animals even further but it has also taught me how to handle various animal-related situations. It was one of those jobs that after you quit for years, you still reminiscing about. I reminisce about the pups I took care of every single day. Seeing the joys on the pets and their owner's face after the end of each daycare session always makes my day — bonus point when the dogs do their little exciting dance when they see you! During my time working fulltime there, I worked with 100+ fur babies a day (from small babies to big boys!) From giving your fur children medicine to showering them due to digestive issue, I've done (and mastered) it all. I'm currently working as a digital designer but the corporate working culture is killing my soul. Hence, I would LOVE to branch out to different paths and journeys. If it makes any different at all regarding you feeling confident about my services, I know how to train cats to do tricks! 😏 So if you're feeling easy-chris-breezy, let's chat! 🐕🦺🫶 Also an honorable shout out to Ariel, a senior German Shepherd who was under medical procedure that I took care for — I miss you every day bud <3 I'm currently working on my own businesses with this on the side so my schedule is super flexible and can be adjust based on your needs. Morning and early afternoon are the ideal time slots for me, but I am open for discussion. At the end of the day, your pets healthy routine is what matter! I am active and love hiking. Although my place doesn't have a yard, I can take your babies out for fun walks and activies in the park. I am also very organized in my home so your pets will feel absolutely comfortable with an odor-free and cleaned environment. My security, Storm (from X-Men), will also make sure no bugs can attack your pets.
About: My house has been filled with pets since before I was born! My family has rescued dogs, cats and horses from shelters, bad homes, and the streets in order to give them loving forever-homes. As an only child, my dogs and cats were more like siblings than pets. I've taken care of dogs since I was old enough to do chores and have loved every animal in my life, whether they were my family's pets or those of friends. I have two cats with me here in Maryland and a Lab and Corgi who are with my family in Minnesota! I'd love to take your pup on a walk or care for your dog or cat while you're away! I'm a graduate student with a fairly flexible schedule. I work from home and try to inject breaks into my day by taking walks, which I'd love to do with your dog! I have a vehicle and am happy to drive within my listed range to walk or sit for you. I have a townhouse with a back yard and there is a dog park 4 minutes from my home. Depending on your pet and their needs, I may be able to host your dog at my home while you're away. In my home, pets' safety, comfort, and needs are always met. Preventative measures are taken to make sure no dangerous objects/ingestibles are laying around. Water is always available and food is given at the proper times. Playtime and walking are essential, but proper leash and collar/harness and baggies are always a must when outside! To me, dogs are the focus of a walk and should not just be closely watched to make sure they are safe, but should also be engaged with, praised, and loved throughout. Similarly, pet-sitting is an active role that requires my attention--lucky for me I also get to have a blast playing with and caring for your dog while sitting!

Your cat will receive consistent care and companionship throughout their stay.

“Googly stayed with Iwona for two weeks during our overseas trip and we could not be more pleased with the care she received. We got daily unprompted updates on how she was doing along with multiple photographs. Googly immediately bonded with Iwona’s family and their sweet dog Nubi. Googly seemed relaxed and happy when we picked her up. We have already booked another short stay for Googly with Iwona. Highly recommended.”
“Gisselle was fantastic and very flexible with accommodating our changing work schedules. We knew our puppy Hank was in great hands and will certainly ask Gisselle to watch him again in the future!!😊”
“I can’t say enough good things about Dawn! She took such amazing care of my dog while I was away. From the updates with videos and photos she sent, I could tell my dog felt completely comfortable and loved. She was attentive, responsible, and truly treated my pup like her own. I came home to a happy, relaxed dog — which says everything. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind!”
“Nithya took care of my Cinnamon for a few days, looks like she had a great time. There were a few other dogs staying with her so there were plenty of friends around to play with. She came home pretty tired from all the excitement, as she's used to being an only dog at home on the couch all day.”
“Monika was wonderful with Choco during his overnight stay! She kept me updated and sent me pictures, which really gave me peace of mind. Her whole family treated him so well, and Choco was very at ease, he looked just like he was at home. I could tell he was comfortable and well cared for. I would absolutely trust Monika again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Churro stayed with Viona and John for a week and had the best time. They have a big backyard where he got to run around and play, became best buddies with their Golden Retriever, Maxie, and also had so much fun with their kids. What we really appreciated was how comfortable they made us feel while we were away. They clearly know dogs and have a lot of experience, and they kept us updated every day with pictures and videos. Churro got lots of walks and attention. Honestly, he was spoiled in the best way. We could tell he was happy and well cared for the whole time. We’d definitely book with Viona and John again!”
“Melissa was absolutely amazing with our Goldendoodle, Jasper. From the moment we met her, it was clear that she genuinely loves dogs, and that showed in every part of Jasper’s stay. She and her family treated Jasper with so much love, care, and attention that he truly felt like part of their family. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious that Jasper was happy, comfortable, and having a great time. When we picked him up, he looked so relaxed and happy. it honestly seemed like he wanted to stay there with them. That says everything about the kind of care Melissa provides. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would recommend Melissa to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family. Thank you again for taking such wonderful care of our boy, Jasper.”
“Tatyana is such a life saver. My dog is in love with her. She treated my dog like she was family and gave her so much love and attention! She is our new favorite and I would definitely book again. Thanks so much for being so great to my dog LILO appreciate it so much!! 🥰🫶”
“This was our first time using Rover and our puppy was nervous and sad at first but quickly warmed up! We received pictures and updates of him throughout his stay! 10/10”
