“Absolutely amazing sitter. She left detailed notes after every visit, sent pictures, and clearly put a lot of care and attention into checking on my cat.

We will definitely be booking her again, Nico will miss her!”

“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!”

About: I currently have two rescue cats and previously raised four rescue kittens! Through these experiences, I am passionate about recognizing the different needs of all furry friends. I value creating a relationship based on trust and patience in tailoring care to every cat’s needs.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Hillcrest Heights
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: My first two rescues were Rottweilers my third and only child is the child that my mom blessed me with. She is a needy, loving girl but high energy so I’ve dealt with everything from couch potato to high Strong lovely I work from home and my height energy baby is used to go out multiple times a day and she is great with any dog she needs. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I am very active walking them in the neighborhood and we will always make time to go out. We are sidekick and we go walking together, dog parks together, but also she has not ever met a dog that she doesn’t love. Even those in the neighborhood that don’t get along with others love her. I do not have kids, but my nieces who are 5 to 9 or around her often so she is great with them, but I also understand those that don’t want their dog around kids so I will not bring them around them if they are uncomfortable.
“Adriana has been an amazing sitter for Rosie! Rosie is always excited to see her, which gives me peace of mind whenever I leave her in Adriana’s care. She is responsible, reliable, and incredibly accommodating, and I always know Rosie will be well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”
“Jennifer was amazing and helped me out last minute when another rover sitter cancelled! She was super responsive and Spike enjoyed spending the day with her and Louis :) I would definitely book again!”
“Theresa was wonderful! Milan loved spending the day with her and her pup, T’Challa. She kept us updated throughout the day with messages and pictures, which gave us great peace of mind! She was very attentive to his needs. Milan enjoyed walks, plenty of attention, and a warm, welcoming environment. Thank you so much!”
“Mochi had the best time at camp with her auntie and uncle and friend Ricky 🐾. Great communication and nice hosts. Thank you! Mochi can’t wait for her next camp day!”
“We had a great experience with Roderick and his family. Since our dog is still pretty new to us, we were a little unsure how he’d do, but he warmed up to them so quickly. It was clear he was comfortable and well cared for the whole time. Roderick and his family were kind, welcoming, and treated him like one of their own. We’d definitely book with them again and highly recommend them!”
“Supon is absolutely brilliant. He took wonderful care of our dog Audrey - he was very caring and really made sure that she settled in well. He took beautiful photos of her throughout the day so we can see how she is getting on. He is very flexible and considerate of changes in schedules. I would 100% recommend Supon to anyone for top dog care!”
“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.”
“We’ve had June watch our puppy for many months now and I can’t believe I haven’t sung her praises until now. June has been the best dog sitter and 3rd parent to our dog! She’s communicative, helpful and as a new puppy parent, very helpful in reinforcing training (we think she’s better behaved at Junes!).”
“We met Linda, Leo and Fred and instantly felt at ease! She was so warm, kind and genuine. Leo and Fred were both welcoming and friendly towards Pinot. They played so well and Pinot was well taken care of. Thank you!!!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs since I was very young, and caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have a pug, so I’m very familiar with daily routines like walking, feeding, bathing, and giving lots of love and attention. Friends, neighbors, and family have always trusted me to look after their pets, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m currently in my last semester of nursing school! My classes are online, and I only have one in-person clinical day per week, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m available for doggy daycare, boarding, and walks throughout the week and can usually accommodate different drop-off, pick-up, and walk times. 🐾 Safety is always my top priority. I grew up with dogs and currently have a sweet pug, so I’m very comfortable handling pets of all sizes and personalities. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, and I always make sure dogs are supervised, fed on schedule, and kept in a safe environment. I’m happy to crate your dog if needed, follow any routines you prefer, and give your pup plenty of love and attention while you’re away.
“Joe made us feel so comfortable, from start to finish! Our guys have never stayed with anyone but family, and they left Joe’s like they’d known him forever. We couldn’t be more happy with our choice and plan on booking over and over again! Also, big shout out to Mr. Watson! He is the sweetest pup you will ever meet and welcomed new friends like they were part of his home. Thanks for everything, Joe and Watson!”
“Corina was great! Really responsive and great to work with. She took great care of our dog Nina. Sent us updates and pictures throughout the day. She took Nina out on several walks during the day and even worked on training her new tricks. My dog just loved her and I can tell she was well taken care of.”
“Kaylyn was so sweet with our Dakota. She made her feel safe and loved during day care. She was quick to respond to all messages and went above and beyond! Would highly recommend to any and all in the Navy Yard area.”
“Ursula accommodated us last minute when we have to leave Teddy for a few hours. Her and her husband was caring dog parents. They reassured us that Teddy will be in good hands. They also sent us photos of Teddy frequently which my kids loved. Thanks you and keep up the good work! Will definitely book with them again in the future.”

About: All dogs need a friend who will run with them, chase sticks and get a little dirty. I’m here to make the city feel more like a jungle and less like concrete. I grew up in VA, working on a farm and playing with all kinds of pets, so I’m not afraid of big dogs. I’m a former D1 athletes, and I work in education, with a background in child and animal care so high energy pets are no problem. I’ve pet sat exotic breeds of dogs for cash during undergrad at Georgetown; I’m also comfortable with high need pets! I’m down to clown but I’ll always put your pets safety first! As a data guy I’m big on little details and enjoy it following instructions. I make it into a game. I also live with a fellow rover person!
“Kennedi came through for my baby at last minute. She has great communication skills, super nice and I know how adventurous and playful Lotus can be so I know she's patient! She's very attentive and I appreciate her for coming through. I will book again”
“Michael was prompt, professional and wasn’t scared of my reactive pittie. I have never let anyone walk or take care of him without meet & greet first. I just couldn’t do that this time as I am injured.”
“Mandy is such an incredible asset to Rover and we are grateful to have someone like her to look after our dog while we’re at work. Mandy is communicative, respectful, and clearly loves our dog like her own.”
“Chase was great with Garland. They were walking Garland for an extended period of time while we were traveling and were timely, communicative and thoughtful. We would love to have Chase walk Garland again anytime they are available!”
“Ican't say enough good things about karima! She is incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and always go above and beyond to make sure my dog, Bruno is well-exercised and happy. I especially love the daily updates and photos they send during the walk, which gives me so much peace of mind while I'm at work."”
About: Cat papi Trav. Good for watching after your little fluff of love while you’re out enjoying yourself. Avid pet lover, but have a soft spot for cats Work from home so I have time to sneak in belly rubs and ear scratches throughout the day. If your cat/dog isn’t the most social we car look at each other from the across the room. I have a 2 bed room condo. Enough space for all to enjoy themselves. A nice park for the walks, and nice windows for the cats to peer into the outside world.
“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.”
“Corissa is amazing! She made sure Bentley was happy and was super personable. She went out of her way to have a meeting with me before we booked it and made Bentleys safety a top priority.”
“Sung was an incredible caretaker for Winnie. She and her husband sent such thoughtful, detailed updates after every walk, and it was clear they genuinely cared about her. We highly recommend them!”
“Eric is absolutely amazing. My dog is a rescue, and he’s very strong, but Eric is patient, loving, and understanding with him. We truly could not have asked for a better dog walker, and we’re lucky to have Eric.”
About: What sets me apart is the lifelong experience and genuine love I have for animals. I grew up with dogs for most of my life and had the opportunity to care for and dog-sit my own dog, Angel, who was a very special part of my family. Although Angel passed away last year and I haven’t had a dog of my own since, caring for her gave me years of firsthand experience understanding a dog’s needs, personality, routines, and the importance of patience and companionship. I’m also a proud cat mom to two cats, Daisy and Tulip, who I’ve cared for over the past three years. My experience with them has taught me just how different every animal can be and how important it is to respect their individual personalities, routines, and comfort levels. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, feeding, cuddles, companionship, or simply someone patient and dependable while you’re away, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I treat every pet as an individual and would give them the same patience, attention, and affection I would want for my own pets. I work from home, so I am able to walk dogs everyday when I am able to move from my computer after completing my task. My home is available to all furry animals. My apartment complex are pet friendly and has a dog park in the area where I am able to allow them to play and have fun!
About: I’ve grown up caring for both dogs and cats, including multiple rescue animals, so I understand that every pet has a different personality, comfort level, and routine. I currently have two dogs, one is a rescue and two rescue cats, which has given me experience working with anxious pets, building trust, and recognizing behavioral needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I also have experience caring for seniors and individuals with special needs, which has made me very patient, attentive, and detail-oriented. I’m comfortable following specific routines, administering extra care and attention when needed, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Caring for pets is a huge part of my everyday life! Between two dogs and two cats, my pets keep me busy! I’m very accustomed to building my daily schedule around animals. I am currently home for the summer and available at all times of the day to provide attention and care! In caring for pets, I deeply value maintaining their regular routine to the greatest extent possible. Ensuring pets have feelings of familiarity and comfort is super important to me in providing an environment that feels safe and trustworthy for all furbabies!
“Aliyah is very dependable, and responds to my requests in a very timely matter! She has no problems with doing what you ask of her. Aliyah continues to be a great walker for my dog and he loves her!”
About: I’ve been working closely with dogs since I was four years old. We moved around a lot growing up and I would always helped her readjust to feel safe in new areas. I would get to know neighbors’ and friends’ pets, and with this early life experience, I’m a natural at getting pets to feel comfortable with me. I have experience working with senior dogs and dogs in recovery from injury, as well as dogs who have been rescued or traumatized by scary situations. I am currently in school, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I typically have 1-2 classes per weekday, either in the morning or at night, leaving the majority of my schedule open for pet care. I always make sure pets’ emotional needs are taken care of. For example, I pay very close attention to body language. At home, if my dog is ever purposefully ignoring me, I check with her to see if something is wrong.
