“With a senior dog, we do get nervous about leaving mango new places. I would say within five minutes of the meet and greet it was clear that Shanilka and her husband would be taking great care of him. They asked all the right questions and during our stay sent regular updates to make sure we knew he was in good hands. Would definitely use again!”
“I couldn't have been blessed with a better sitter. Diana and her family totally exceeding my expectations with taking care of my Apollo. I received updates and photos multiple times a day, that showed the love he was getting, the amazing care he was getting, and he was happy. This was the 1st time using Rover and I was extremely nervous, but Diana and her family took away all my worry. She and her family celebrated Apollo's 3rd birthday with him. We were greeted with balloons. How awesome was that! Diana's love has for dogs shows immensely as well as her good character, and I would absolutely use her again and strongly recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter for their dog. Thank you Diana, I appreciate you and your family. Until we meet again...”
“Yvonne and her family were great with my sometimes anxious mini aussiedoodle! They were calm, kind, and he was very comfortable with them quickly. We can't wait to book her again!”
“Our very social and attention-craving lab mix loved his stay with Natalia and Edward. We were out of town for seven days and received adorable pictures of him playing with their dog, lounging in the living room, or romping with the family. We especially liked the big backyard that allows for built-in outdoor space and the very walkable neighborhood which allowed for going further afield. It was clear they perfectly understood what our Milo needed and were more than happy and ready to accommodate. Relieved we’ve found a go-to Rover we’d be happy to use again. Highly recommend.”
“Meri was amazing! This was the first time I left my dog with someone we did not know. She was warm, and welcoming, and provided photos over the weekend. Thank you, Meri!! :)”
“John and Yongi were so wonderful to Shadow! We loved all the photos and videos, we were glad to see him having such a good time. John was flexible with drop off and pick up and accommodated changes in our schedule. Would absolutely have Shadow stay with them again!”
“Kelly took such great care of our dog Xena while we were away. She sent photos and updates every day, and it was obvious that our pup was having a great time. It's so comforting to know she is in good hands while we are traveling.”
“Lilly was fantastic! She was flexible. She was attentive. She was very communicative and I would highly recommend her to anybody looking to have their pup well taken care of.”
“Cindy was great with Murphy. Friendly, easy to communicate, We appreciate her flexibility, prompt and clear communication, and her overall attentiveness to our dog. We could not be more pleased with her work and would be happy to recommend her services to our family and friends.”
“Bianca was a wonderful sitter. I knew the moment I met her that my pooch was in good hands which put me at ease. My dog takes time to warm up to people but he was well acquainted with Bianca so quickly. She provided frequent updates and I could tell my dog felt comfortable with her in photos. When I picked my dog up he was crying when she left and was searching for her. I would absolutely recommend her to look after your pet.”
“Gracie was fabulous watching Lincoln! She was very communicative and kept us updated with lots of photos. We could tell that Lincoln was well taken care of and that Gracie made him feel right at home. Would definitely recommend Gracie as a sitter!”
“Our puppy Cavapoo Tia stayed at Andy for 5 nights during thanksgiving break. Andy was great sharing daily pictures. The stay was smooth and we would use Andy again for future needs.”
“Briane was fabulous to work with. We had an unexpected family need requiring help with our dog and Briane was so helpful in making our complicated arrangements. Our pup seemed to have a wonderful stay and we received photo updates along the way. Will definitely use again!”
“Elena was diligent in sending daily updates on how Ollie was doing throughout his stay in her home. She was flexible when I needed to alter the dates booked. Ollie's needs were met and his demeanor showed me that he was comfortable with her and her home. I would be happy to have her care for Ollie again in the future.”
“Evan and Megan were great sitters! They communicated well the entire time we were gone and sent us pics to keep us up to date on how our puppy was doing. Highly recommended.”
“Joseph and his wife took amazing care of Kashmere over night. They sent updates through out the entire day/ night with pictures and videos to make sure we knew he was doing ok. Also kept him on schedule for us so there were no issues for us when we got him back. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”

“Sharon took great care of our two cats while we were away for a week! One of our cats requires daily medication and she was able to administer the medication even when our cat was not being the most cooperative. We will definitely book her again!”
“Sophia was very easy to talk with and took great care of my cat, Angel! Although she usually suffers from separation anxiety, when I came home Angel was doing really well and was her usual happy self! I’m sure it was in large part because of Sophia’s visit.”
“Lingshan was fantastic! She checked in on my cat over the holidays, and she was so attentive and thoughtful in her care of our cat and home. We will highly recommend her!”
“Julianna is fantastic. Our shy cat who normally runs away from everyone visited with Julianna all three days that we were away. She fed her was able to brush her and keep her routine while we were visiting friends. The pictures and texts that she provided during her visits kept up informed and plugged into what our cat was doing. She made our time away from our furry friend be better. Thank you Julianna!”
“Thank you Carolina for taking such good care of our baby! Winnie struggles with eating and Carolina made sure to encourage her to eat and provide her with lots of snuggles and play time.”

“Ambar was amazing with our cats! She was not only extremely caring, but also very communicative and took amazing notes and pictures, keeping us up-to-date while we were gone. Even our shy cat, Pintxo was a huge fan of Ambar. We would absolutely have Ambar back to hang with the kitties again!”
“John was so sweet and helpful in taking care of my two kitties! He made sure to send pictures during each visit and kept me updated on how they were doing. He was patient when we had a slight issue with access to my apartment and can’t wait to use him again!”
“Rae's great. She gets along with my cats so well. When she couldn't make all of the days we had scheduled for our trip, she suggested a sitter. It worked out well and I didn't have to worry about my cats.”
“Aubree was great as always! I booked her for a more extensive period this time around and I can tell my cat Penelope was very happy and safe under her care. She was very flexible and communicative and provided plenty of detailed updates and photos of Penelope, which were much appreciated. Will definitely book again in the future!”
“Ashley took care of my cat while we were away for a couple of weeks. She is great! Yayo really enjoyed her company, and she took care of all his needs. Definitely recommend booking with Ashley!”
“Highly recommend Xin! She was incredibly responsible and took such great care of my cat. It was clear my cat really liked her and felt comfortable in her care. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Jenni was amazing with our little fur baby, who can be a little scared sometimes! She took great care spending time with our cat and offering to take care of little things we forgot, like watering the plants. We really appreciate everything Jenni did during her visits to make our cat more comfortable and would definitely recommend her!”
“Teffni did a wonderful job looking after my fur baby Ollie, daily updates shared happy playtime & loving scratches during her visits. She even indulged him with his balcony time (mid winter in DC) and his secret love of drinking from the bathroom sink ! My apartment was well looked after and pet items kept neat and well stocked for his needs. Thank you so much for loving him in my absence!”

About: Hello everyone.I used to have many kinds of pets,I have been doing pet foster care for 8 years, The characteristic of foster care here is that I am at home 24 hours a day,I have a lot of time to take care of your pet. I am currently at home 24 hours a day and can take care of pets. This is my full-time job,This can help pets be taken care of better Your pet can move freely at home without biting anything, I can play with it anytime for your pet, I also have a backyard at home where I can go out for a walk
About: I’ve had dogs and taken care of them since I was a child. I’ve owned an Airedale terrier, a pug, a Russian terrier, and my family currently has a Japanese spitz. I’ve got all sorts of experience - I have adopted a doggie from a shelter before, and I’ve also raised my two pups from 3 months old until they passed a few months ago at ages 14 and 16. I’ve boarded dogs - I looked after a friend’s pug for a week, a family friend’s elderly golden retriever, and fostered a stray my sister and I rescued before someone adopted her. I’ve taken road trips with multiple pets, and flown across the country with 3 of my dogs, I’ve taken them to all sorts of vet appointments, and been with them through all stages of their lives. I’m on this platform looking for company to heal from losing my furry friends, because being around dogs brings me peace and joy. I am a performing artist and I travel a lot for concerts, so having my own pet is unfortunately not feasible at the moment, hence I decided that taking care of someone else’s furry babies while I’m home between performances is the second best thing:) You can rest assured that I’ll take great pleasure in taking care of them and having them in my home. I work from home during the day and I am home from evening until morning, too. I do however step out for errands and appointments. Your dog will be with me most of the time while staying in my home, walked 2-3 times and fed on schedule, but should be comfortable being on its own for 2-3 hours max, if I have things to do. If your doggie has severe separation anxiety and is unable to be alone at all, I can accommodate that with enough notice and for 2x my normal nightly rate. I’ve always let my dogs run free around the house and make a safe space for them where they liked, but I did crate my rescue doggie when he first arrived to slowly acclimate him to the new place. Whatever you prefer for your dog is fine by me and I’m happy to accommodate. I don’t have a yard, but I have plenty of green areas nearby where I’d walk your furry pal. I keep my dogs on leash at all times. I like training them and playing with them to give them some mental stimulation, but if they prefer to chill and not be bothered I’m cool with that as well
About: From a young age, I was responsible for feeding, grooming, and exercising a variety of animals, especially dogs. My genuine love for animals is evident in the way I interact with them. I believe in creating a positive and enriching experience for every pet in my care. Under my care, your pet will also have the opportunity to spent a lovely time with my dog, Jackie, who loves to entertain other dogs. I am a reliable, responsible, and trustworthy pet sitter who will treat your pets as if they were my own. I understand the importance of maintaining their routines and ensuring they feel safe and secure while you are away. I provide regular updates and photos/videos to keep you informed about your pet's well-being and activities while you are away. Working from home, I am able to look after your pet all day everyday. Since I take my dog on a walk every morning, I will be happy to do the same for your pet. I have a huge fenced backyard with a dog who likes to entertain other dogs. Your pet will have a great time playing with my dog in the backyard.
About: I've never known a life without dogs and cats! Growing up, I was always the go-to person for friends and neighbors who needed a reliable, loving pet sitter.

My husband and I both work from home, meaning your pet will get plenty of love and attention throughout the day. Our home is filled with friendly, well-socialized pets who are used to having new furry friends around. I only take in dogs who are comfortable with other dogs and cats, ensuring a peaceful stay for everyone. For cat owners, I also offer in-home visits to care for your feline companions in their familiar space. Whether you're traveling for a weekend or an extended trip, I’ll treat your pet like family. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! 🐾💛 📍 Services Offered: ✔ Dog Boarding (for friendly dogs comfortable with other pets) ✔ Cat Sitting (in your home) ✔ Medication Administration ✔ Senior & Puppy Care Let’s chat and see if we’re the right fit! 🐾🐕🐈 My husband and I both work from home, meaning your pet will get plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I am available for boarding any time, any day. Our home is filled with friendly, well-socialized pets who are used to having new furry friends around. I only take in dogs who are comfortable with other dogs and cats, ensuring a peaceful stay for everyone. In my home, your dog will enjoy a safe, loving, and pet-friendly environment. I have a fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time, and I tailor their stay to their needs—whether that means crate time for comfort and security or free-roaming in the house if that’s what they’re used to. For active pups, I offer daily walks and even trips to the dog park for socialization (if they enjoy it). If your dog prefers a quieter experience, we’ll stick to peaceful walks and cozy indoor time. If I’m caring for your dog in your home, I’ll follow their usual routine—feeding, potty breaks, walks, and playtime—just as you would, to keep them happy and stress-free. Their comfort and well-being are my top priority! 🐾❤️
“Felisa gave Pearl excellent day care in her home on a holiday weekend. My dog loves to be outdoors and she had the opportunity to play in the backyard and to take long walks.”
“My Yorkie, Jack, had the best time with Avigail. He played in her fenced backyard had lots of indoor fetch time too. I was almost scared Jack wouldn’t want to come home to me after being spoiled by Avigail. I will definitely use her service again.”
“My dog is very happy at Natalia's and with the company of other dogs there. She is happily going to Natalia, which is the biggest sign for me that Natalia's place is a good environment for dogs.”
About: I’ve had multiple dogs in my lifetime. I’ve taken care of friends and neighbors dogs before. I currently have a pug named Franky who is constantly praised for his behavior I’m currently unemployed/working part time remotely so I have all the free time in the world. I have a dog of my own so it shouldn’t be an issue incorporating a friend into the routine I will provide lots of love and attention. Plays games when they want, but also respect them when they want to sleep. Safety is my number 1 priority

“Marissa was super attentive and responsive to Valerie's needs (springer spaniel puppy). My husband commented that she was confident and in charge, but super nice and connected with our pup right away. Marissa was very responsive -- I had to book sort of last minute, and she responded right away and took on three walks. She was easy to converse with/contact through the Rover platform.”
“Excellent walker. We could not be happier! Communicative and takes great photos. Always on time. Our dog can be a little shy with strangers and she was very patient with him. Would book again.”
“Krystian was super at walking my two dogs while I was battling sciatica. He arrived on time, expressed concern for my condition and paid close attention to each of the dogs. He was very friendly and easy to work with. I will definitely call on him again.”
“Parisa is a pro at handling our dog, Dolores, on walks. Dolores is afraid of other dogs so walks during busy times can be challenging. For Parisa, this was no problem. And Dolores had a great time!”
“Denisse has been fantastic with our older dog! Very responsive and super accommodating. Our 50lb dog needs to be carried up/down the stairs and she handles that without issue and provides plenty of pictures, updates, and even gives our dog cookies.”

“I have booked with Nicole a few times now for walks and more recently a drop in visit. She always replies in a timely manner and is very flexible with my schedule. She leaves very thorough reviews of my dogs and how they acted and clearly cares very much for them. She was able to take care of my dog after he hurt his back and give him his medications while I was gone! She does a great job at every visit! Will continue to book with her.”
“Malek is a dog whisperer! He was wonderful with our Australian shepherd puppy - who has a lot of energy and love to give! Malek took her on some great walks, and she was actually tired after! Thank you so much, Malek!”
“Kevin was fantastic with his communication and punctuality. I felt great coming home knowing that our pup Lucy was well taken care of! He even went above and beyond and took her for a much longer walk than anticipated!”
“Melissa was absolutely amazing! Despite the challenge of my last-minute request, Melissa graciously accepted my booking, demonstrating incredible flexibility and understanding of my urgent need. From the outset, Melissa was incredibly professional and reassuring, making it clear that my dog was in safe and capable hands. What stood out to me was the level of communication throughout the entire process. Melissa made sure to keep me informed with regular updates, including photos and messages, which provided me with great peace of mind knowing my pups were enjoying their time out and about. I absolutely recommend Melissa 1000%!”
“Christopher has been wonderful with my two dogs - one of which has dog aggression issues. He is detail oriented, very responsive to my inquires, and always sends an after walk update on time. It makes it easier getting through the work day not having to worry about my dogs knowing they were well taken care of during their daily walk with Christopher.”
“Amanda was great! We have a small, super friendly but high energy dog that will not sleep through the night unless she’s had enough exercise. Inanna slept through the night after just one 30 minute walk with Amanda. Will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Judson was the ideal dog walker! He was super patient with our pup and gave helpful info during each walk. He is extremely reliable which is hard to find. We are grateful to have found him and would work with him again without question!”

About: We are a family of four (kids are 12 and 15), plus Nash our 6 year old Australian Shepard who loves walks and snuggles. Before Nash (and even before kids!), we had Riley, our sweet black lab who left us too soon. Over the years, we have fostered dogs, cared for our friends' dogs, given millions of belly rubs and logged many miles of dog walks around our lovely neighborhood. We'll provide a caring and friendly environment, a fenced in backyard and a built-in furry playmate! I have an irregular schedule, but work from home >50% of the time. Both kids loves dogs and can also help in the afternoons and on weekends. We'll provide pics of your pup playing and on walks. Your pup will have a fenced-in yard and run of the house to play and rest. We will follow whatever schedule they are used to, can have them play with our dog or provide separation if you prefer. While the kids may help, all pup care will be done 100% by me.
“David & Allison took great care of our dog. It was a last minute first time request. David was accommodating to set up an ASAP meet & greet that sealed the deal and put my mind at rest that our boy would be in good and experienced hands. They have a great fenced in yard. Sent daily updates. I would not hesitate to use them again and recommend to others.”
“Cal & Kelly were so great with Mabel. I was impressed by how they managed the dynamics between the fellow boarding dogs and loved getting pics and videos every day. It was so nice to be able to enjoy our family vacation without worrying about our dog as it was very clear she was well cared for and happy. Thank you, Cal and Kelly!”
