“A+ experience. Pics/updates were plentiful, and it was clear that Sarah and her husband were thoughtful and keenly attentive in their caretaking. Their dog Cooper also made for a great canine companion.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Thomasena is absolutely amazing, and her daughter Robin is just as wonderful. They took such loving care of our fur baby while we were away, and it truly felt like he was part of their family. When we picked him up, he was so relaxed and happy—it was clear he had been in great hands. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was being cared for with so much affection. Definitely will book Thomasena every time we go away. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Maria treats our dog like family. He loves her and her family and they love him. I am never worried about him when he is with Maria. I know that he is having fun and being taken great care of. We are moving out of state and will have a very challenging time finding a new sitter as great as Maria!”
“Our second time booking Paola and just a great as the first time! Great communication, flexible, and our boy wasn’t too upset with us for leaving him! We are at ease with Paola taking care of him.”
“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..”
“Tasha was very communicative, shared daily feedback and photos, knew how to handle dogs, etc. Bean seems to have had a perfectly peaceful Thanksgiving week with her family!”
“My dog Karma absolutely loves staying with Danielle and her family. It's hard to leave a pet with someone, but there is not a doubt in my mind that my dog is being loved and cared for while I'm away. I'm not looking any further....I've found the perfect sitter! Wonderful people!”
“Alex and Daniel were wonderful to work with! They kindly gave us updates on our dog while she was with them and it really seemed like she warmed up to them quickly. We are so greatful to have met them and we look forward to working with them in the future.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have always valued spending time with and caring for them. I still walk, feed, play with, and love my two family dogs, although I am not the primary caretaker. Recently, I adopted my own cat whom I feed and play with daily, change her litter box, etc. I am not able to care for my own dog right now, as I’m very busy with dental school and do not feel ready for one, but I want many of my own in the future and cannot wait to care for your dog(s)!! I’m currently in my last year of school so I’m a lot more flexible! I have pets of my own and I make sure to give them the care they need. I will do the same for your pets! I will make sure to provide your pets with the best care possible, whether it’s for a walk or a longer stay. I plan to offer the best care depending on the situation!
“Coralis was AMAZING. Super flexible with last minute booking and an unexpected change of plans. Sent tons of photos and videos. I’m so grateful to have found her. She lives just two miles from my “second home” and I’m hoping to have her watch Raven again in the near future when we may have a last minute chance to go away. I loved that she had so many excellent reviews and had experience with older dogs.”
“Sharon was an awesome dog sitter for my guy, Eli. He always has a great time there with a huge yard to run around and play in. I had a late train coming back from my trip and Sharon was very understanding and flexible. Could not recommend more”
“Nicolle did an excellent job caring for shadow. She provided photos throughout shadows stay and was flexible with scheduling when we had a family illness. We will continue to use Nicolle for future sitting needs!”
“Melanie was fantastic with our senior dog Bowie! He felt right at home and I had so much peace of mind knowing he was in her caring hands. We will absolutely be booking Melanie again in the future!”
“My shepherd husky mix Riker had such a great time and was well taken care of. He was so happy (and tired) after his boarding. Would use their services again!!”
“Jordan is the best pet sitter we could ever ask for! Our dog always comes back looking fluffier with his tail wagging. We love the “Capone chronicles” which brings us so much joy when we’re away.”
“We truly appreciate the fantastic care given to both our dogs, thank you so much! Loved the videos and text updates throughout their stay - y’all are wonderful!”

“Carla took wonderful care of my two cats, one of whom needs medication and is a bit tricky about taking it, while I was away for a weekend. I really appreciated the updates and photos while I was away!”
“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!”
“Linda did such a great job of taking care of our cats. My one cat receives medicine and he's very difficult to medicate but Linda was able to medicate him properly and provided great updates to keep me informed. I will definitely be reaching out to Linda again and I highly recommend her!”
“Ashley did a great job caring for our cats! The first time she came over to meet our girls, she asked really thoughtful questions about them and their routine. This told me she really cared about what she was doing and our cats were in good hands. She did a great job taking care of our kitty that gets medicine, and was able to adapt when our girl wasn't being super cooperative. We always got lots of cute pictures, and great updates on their Rover cards that made us less homesick. I feel like I can look forward to more trips, knowing that Ashley did such a great job with our fur babies!”
“Sharmily is amazing!! I've been having her cat sit my anxious pandemic furbaby and he just loves her. She is so good at following directions and giving detailed reports! Have been using her for a year will continue!”
“Michael is always a pleasure to book with. He’s very responsive and takes really good care of my three cats. He communicates very well and takes the cutest pictures of my girls. If you want someone who can follow instructions, ask great questions and treat your pets with kindness book with Michael.”
“Did a good job! Wybie seemed very happy with her care and in good spirits! Firsts visits of the day were on occasion a bit later than hoped, but all around generally happy with the care Maura gave.”
“Samuel was a wonderful sitter! He was very attentive and responsible, he sent great summaries and pictures, and was flexible when fitting me in last minute. My rambunctious kitty had a great with him!”
“As always Teffni is an amazing pet sitter, all three of our cats love her and we know she truly understands their individual quirks and needs. We loved receiving her updates and photos—it gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Once again, we came home to three relaxed, happy, and well-cared-for boys. We’re so grateful for Teffni and will absolutely keep booking with her. Highly, highly recommend!”
“This is the second time Maria has looked over our cat Lucy for us for a few days and she was just as wonderful this time as she was the last time. She’s very caring and gives Lucy the love and attention she needs while she is home alone. We will for sure trust her again to take care of our Lucy when needed.”
“Matilda was very communicative and did a great job caring for my cat, cleaning the litter, checking on the water, and playing with my cat. She did a great job paying attention to what my cat needed and giving her space when she needed it. Would book her again!”
“Erin really did me a "solid" and was able to watch my kitties last minute for the holidays. Always kept me up-to-date on visits and also provided some very cute pics during the visits.”
“Anton was great with our cat Benji! Very responsive, attentive, and went the extra mile when helpful (like cleaning whole litter box instead of scooping when dirty or having a late night visit when his schedule changed). We’ll book with him again. :)”
“Nichole was wonderful with our cats and cockatiels! She sent us photo updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our pets warmed up to her surprisingly quickly, and it was clear they were well cared for. We will definitely be booking Nichole again for our future trips. Highly recommend!”
“Stefany was great with our pets. They all came out to visit her, which doesn't happen to all care providers. She was friendly and professional to us and very loving to the kitties.”
“Marina was fantastic! Sent a thorough message after each visit and took great care of our three cats! She also tidied up the house for us and brought in the mail. Thanks Marina!”
“Erica did a great job taking care of our Lucy while we were gone for five days. She was reliable and showed up every day, twice a day to care for Lucy and always sent us pictures and updates. I would greatly recommend her and trust her again to care for Lucy.”

About: I am a pet lover. I grew up in a home with many pets including dogs and cats and have always had a special connection to animals. I love going on long walks and heading to the dog park when the weather is nice. I am here to help you care for your pet the best way possible. I'll always listen to special instructions and will show your pet the love and attention as if they were my own. I have a flexible schedule and am able to do "drop-in visits" and "rover now" walks during most week days when many walkers are unavailable. I am in the office two days a week, Tuesdays and a flex day. I can't wait to meet your fur baby! **I cannot accept pets that get into plants as I have a few not pet safe plants at home** **For house sitting you must be ok with my dog Buddy coming with me and staying at your house as well.** I work from home 3 days a week and am home most weekends! I too Iove middle of the day walks and all day hangs! I am in a pet friendly building that is super close to Rock Creek for longer walks. My home is child free, and smoke free. I do have a senior beagle mix I adopted from a family member who could not bring him with for an overseas move who is a full time pet at the home.
“Ming was absolutely amazing. This was the first time leaving my fur baby with anyone. Ming made it a perfect 1st experience. From the check in and images sent. It was wonderful. I know my pup had a blast. I 100% recommend.”

About: I used to be a manager at a dog shelter which I absolutely loved before moving to a new state. I’ve also grown up on a farm and handled all types of pets from goats, pigs, cows to dogs, cats, hamsters, and fish. I believe every animal deserves to be treated as family not just a pet.

We will ensure nothing is around that will harm the animal whether it is cables, shoes, food, etc. we will always be around to ensure your pet is taken care of and in good health.
“Maria was so great with our rescue pup! We were nervous to leave our pup with a new sitter but she kept us up to date all day. Maris was a strong communicator and very thoughtful. Would recommend her if you need a dog sitter who really cares about dogs and cats and their well being!”

I will definitely work with her in the future.”
About: I started sitting in earnest four years ago, but grew up with my own dogs and often babysat for friends and family in high school and college. I’ve cared for Greyhounds, Border Collies, Shihtzus, Golden Retrievers, Corgis, APBTs, one Mastiff, one Akita, one senior German Shpeherd, and one Border Terrier/Shihtzu puppy. I’m a teaching artist, so my fluctuating schedule doesn’t allow me to have my own dogs, but the long periods of remote work and time between gigs means I have very flexible availability and can fill the hole in my heart by being a reliable, loving sitter for others. I really cherish any opportunity to spend time with any pups and look forward to meeting yours! I’m between gigs at the moment, so save some odd appointments, I’m available for morning, afternoon, or evening drop in walks, daytime sitting, or longer overnight stays and in-home sitting. I always prefer to take a walk with pet parents leading when I first meet new dogs to get a sense of what they’re used to. For multi-day sitting, I always follow whatever norms you set in your home to make sure training stays consistent and there’s no confusion that may create anxiety for your pups. If working remotely, I try to stay where pups can see me and take lots of breaks for walks, pottying, and pets. Unless you have a specific walking route, I like to stay on quieter streets with slower speed limits and less traffic so walks are calm. I also like to allow lots of time for sniffing (smells stimulate your pup’s brain!) unless you have behavioral or training concerns about avoiding distractions during walks.
“Wonderful experience! She provided great updates throughout the visit, sent plenty of photos, and took excellent care of my dog. Communication was easy, and it was reassuring to know he was in such good hands. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to others.”
About: Hi! My name is Renee and I’ve been taking care of animals for most of my life. I grew up in a household with many different kinds of pets including dogs, rodents, and reptiles. I currently own two small dogs, Shih Tzu and Maltese mixes, one is 13 and the other is 3. I love all animals and am comfortable with them all. I’m currently unemployed so I have tons of time to care for and play with your furry friends! I’m mostly available on weekends as I have responsibilities weekdays, but I’m very flexible! I have a fenced in yard. I would keep my dogs separate just as a proactive measure since they are small. In your home I would care for your precious pet how you see fit!
