“What’ a wonderful experience. Oreo had a great time and was treated like a prince. Not sure he wanted to come home!! :) really appreciated all the communication and care. Will definitely rebook in the future.”


“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...”

“Chris is an amazing dog sitter! I had such a great experience with Chris! He is so nice, friendly, and truly cares about the pets he watches. While I was on vacation, he sent me videos and photos of my dog Isabella, which gave me such peace of mind. Chris took excellent care of her, and when I picked her up she looked happy, relaxed, and refreshed. I will definitely use his services again for dog sitting — he’s amazing! Thanks again Chris!”

“My dog Tako was extremely well taken care of and I got frequent updates. Shanilka was very easy to communicate with and she was very flexible as my travel plans changed due to the weather. I will absolutely be using her again if I ever need!”
“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.”

“Natalia and Edward are fantastic! I’ve used them twice now and have nothing but positive things to say! They’re great about sending daily updates. I will for sure use again!”

“Rose is FANTASTIC! A loving, fun and calm spirit! Pippy was so very happy and content staying with her and Zeus! I would rebook in a minute and often! We found a gem amongst rocks! 🤗”

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.
“Kelly was fabulous! She watched our two newfies and they were so happy I was afraid they would not want to come home. I think it is a big plus that Kelly has a yard where the dogs could work off some of their energy and play. I really appreciated the updates and photos that Kelly sent through the stay, which put us at ease. I would really recommend Kelly - five stars!”

“Lilly took wonderful care of Charlotte, during her first night away from me since her adoption. She sent frequent updates as well as photos, putting my mind at ease, sharing information on how Charlotte did from the drop-off until the pick-up. I strongly recommend Lilly.”

“Sable was in great hands for her four night stay. Rachel took great care of Sable, communicated regularly, sent us a bunch of pictures and was a delight to interact with. Highly recommended!!”

“Carlos was communicative and attentive and gave us photo updates of our Dog while there. Our dog enjoyed playing with some of the other dogs that were there and enjoyed the large yard.”

“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.”
“Anne and family were great with our dog. She was very easy to communicate with, has a great house with a fenced in backyard, nice neighborhood, and parks nearby, etc. Her own dog was adorable and got along well with our high-energy 2-year old dog. We never know about how our dog will get along since, although he is quite friendly, he does have a lot of energy and loves a lot of running, chasing, etc. We had various special instructions for feeding, walking, playing, and the like, and Anne was great in taking care of those requests. We appreciated getting pictures and updates and we highly recommend.”

“Meri is a joy to work with. She's so comfortable and caring with our dog. Our dog had a medical issue and she was very attentive to giving medicine regularly. She's energetic and our dog enjoyed her walks. Meri was also thoughtful in taking care of our place. We are so happy to know Meri and look forward to her care for our beloved family member in the future.”

“Andrea and Mike were wonderful sitter for Max. Max was really happy and looked really healthy. We were happy to find them and looked forward to see them again!”

“Elena was wonderful with Beau. She literally greeted him with open arms. I look forward to working with Elena again because she cared for my dog as if he were her own.”

“Nuha took such great care of our cat! She is kind, communicative, and we came home to a very happy cat. She left detailed reports on each visit, and we felt like we could relax on vacation knowing our cat was taken care of.”

“Sharon is AWESOME!! She took care of everything perfectly. My kitties can be shy so i think it says a lot about her that they come out to play when she’s there! We will definitely be booking again!”

“Julianna was really easy to communicate with and we so appreciated her daily updates and photos. We have a shy senior kitty but it seemed she warmed up to Julianna towards the end which was a huge relief to us.”


“Lingshan is incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely caring, not just toward pets, but in everything she does. My cat seemed comfortable and well cared for the entire time, which gave me real peace of mind during my vacation. What truly stood out was how she went above and beyond: she even helped me quickly access important information from a time-sensitive delivery while I was traveling. That level of thoughtfulness and trustworthiness is rare. If you’re looking for someone responsible, dependable, and truly compassionate, I highly recommend her. I would absolutely book with her again.”

“Carolina is amazing! She was able to stop by and check-in on our cats on Christmas Eve. She made sure all of our cats were taken care of and comfortable and was quick in providing us updates. I highly recommend her to any pet parent!”

“Our first time with Rover and Rae was fantastic! Played with our cats and communicated to us what she was and was not comfortable with. Also asked us questions that we would not have considered that were really good to have Rae know. Would 10/10 book again!”


“Ambar was amazing, willing to meet with me ahead of time, and sincerely helped me with an urgent booking. She really helped me around the stressful holiday times and was always so prompt with her reports. I will definitely attempt to use her again!”


“Jenni was great! This was my first time hiring a cat sitter and she was very assuring and thorough. She made sure to send me lots of pics and followed the care instructions I left perfectly. I will definitely book her in the future.”

“Ashley was an absolute dream, and I know Minerva has taken to her in making her own little rituals with her. I look forward to them being reunited when I have to leave town again!”

“Xin is amazing, she bonded with our cat immediately and took great care of her. She has a special way of connecting with pets. We’ll be using her moving forward. Totally recommend!”

“This is our second time with Aubree. Our cats always seem excited for her to arrive. She’s fabulous at communicating with us about how they are doing and spends lots of time playing with our cats and making sure they are well cared for. We’ll definitely be booking her again.”

“Jana was my first experience with a rover sitter and I could not be more happy about it! She was really communicative about everything. She made a checklist for everything she needed to do for each visit and was really prepared. She also sent photo updates of my kitties and let me know every time she was with them. Jana also went above and beyond and made the kittens a toy for them to enjoy (so sweet!!) which really shows how much she cared about my kitties [and animals in general!] She took time to play with them and give them attention :) Jana made me feel so much better about having left my cats alone for a few days and I would book her again and I definitely recommend her services!”

About: I’ve cared for many of my own dogs & dogs of friends, gf’s, etc. since the late 1980s. I’m a long time dog owner and dog lover, who is also a professional and former small business owner - who is mature, responsible, and serious. On the professional side, I have a combination of organizational/business management and basic sales/marketing & customer service training. I own a single family home with a large yard. My “main job” is in tech and I work from home nearly every day. I’m minutes away from a large park as well. The pets (and people) under my care receive a lot of loving attention in a safe, higher end neighborhood. I have a fenced yard backing up to a very serene, wooded/natural setting with tons of trees. If needed, my home has specific crates/cages and multiple rooms, depending on what the circumstances require. However, usually most pets are allowed to roam freely throughout most of the house and yard, as long as they do not conflict with or disrupt others.
“Shanilka was super responsive and understanding of my dog's needs!! She was very kind and prompt with pick up and drop off so I didn't have to wait long in the cold. Highly recommend!!”

“Our Hogan (mini goldendoodle; ~ 2years old) had a great stay at Avi's. Her house has a large fenced backyard; there were a few other dogs that Hogan played with and Avi sent updates/pictures throughout the day. I would definitely recommend, and will look to have Hogan back here next time.”

“Our dog Remy seems to have had a very nice experience during his first visit to daycare with Shoham. It was evident that she genuinely cared about the pets under her care and provided us with updates throughout the day. The house has an ideal backyard for dogs and Remy is looking forward to future visits!”

“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.”

About: When it comes to dogs, I have all the patience and love in the world. I'm responsible, playful, and a beacon of positive energy. I've dog sat and walked for friends and neighbors in DC. Our dog Naya (mini Aussie) also loves having a nap buddy. I live in an apartment building that is pet friendly, fenced dog run, conveniently located in within 5min from Rock Creek Park. I have flexible hours. I would be happy to accommodate morning and evening walks when needed. Special Skills: I have been told I give amazing belly rubs. I can sing when they're homesick or feeling down. I am currently on leave from regular 9-5 job. I have flexibility while attending to our own dog (Naya) and personal projects. My partner and I take Naya out 3x a day and try to set up doggy play dates when we can. We doggy proof our apt based on the dog we host as best as possible. We have a small balcony which gives them a great view of nature. We also have an outdoor dog run (fenced) within the building and plenty of friendly dogs that they would get to interact with if they want otherwise there’s plenty of options to go to the nearby rock creek park for personal space too.
“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.”

“Joseph took many photos of our puppy to keep us updated throughout the time we needed him to dog sit for us! The process was fast and easy and I would recommend him as a dog sitter to any of my friends. He was also nice and very flexible with accommodating to us! 😁”

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.”

“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!”

About: Hi! I’m Helena, a lifelong dog lover and experienced owner of a large, high-energy dog. I know that every dog has a different personality, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether your pup enjoys a long walk, a leisurely sniff around the neighborhood, or just some extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to tailor each visit to their needs. I’m comfortable with larger breeds and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. You can count on me to treat your dog like one of my own. I’ll provide plenty of updates, photos, and reliable care so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I am available any day of the week. I know last minute needs happen so I am available same day if needed. Hope to see you soon! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your care instructions, keep fresh water available, clean up after walks, and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and exercise. I’ll also send photo updates and messages so you know how they’re doing while you’re away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and will always use safe leash-handling practices.
“Nicole walks our dog daily and we fully recommend her for anyone's pet care needs! Our dog is greatly improving on the leash after his daily walks with Nicole and is so at ease when she is around. Nicole is responsive, on time, and, most importantly, great with our dog.”

About: Host with the most.....we love to offer five star hotel hospitality to our guest pups for tail wags, tricks for treats and park trails to explore. And for our older guests we have story time, nap time, puppy massages and quiet time. Whatever they need and more for first time books and repeat customers we have special offers for grooming. I am available all throughout the day because I work at home. With flexibility I set a schedule based on the needs of the guest and incorporate them into our daily lifestyle. We offer follow up calls, pictures, check ins and special care to each guest we host and home we visit to offer reassurance that your beloved family member is in good care.
“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.”

“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 is very kind and responsible!! She visited my house mid-day for several days to take my two dogs for a walk and let them play in the yard while I had long days out of the house. Everything with the booking went as planned and the pictures were great!! I highly recommend Denisse for your pet sitting needs!”

“Kevin has been walking Sandi once a day for just over a week and it’s going well for us and Sandi. He’s working hard to figure out her quirks and is super kind and patient with our smart and stubborn love bug. He’s been fantastic communicating with us about any questions or timing issues! I highly recommend Kevin for your dogs!”

About: Hi! I’m Juliana, a lifelong dog lover and proud mom to Panela, a sweet Yorkie mix, and Milo, my spirited little Chihuahua. Having two very different personalities at home has taught me how to read each dog’s individual needs, energy level, and quirks, whether that’s a high-energy walker who needs to burn off steam or a smaller, more anxious pup who just wants gentle reassurance. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight boarding right here in the DC area. Because I get around mostly on foot and by bike, I know my neighborhood inside and out, including the best walking routes, quiet streets, and nearby parks, which means your dog gets a real outing, not just a quick lap around the block. During boarding stays, your pup will have a calm, attentive home environment and become part of the routine Panela and Milo already know and love. I send photo and video updates during every visit so you always know your dog is safe, happy, and having a good time. I’d love to set up a meet-and-greet so we can make sure it’s a great match before booking! “I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my day rather than being squeezed in around a 9-to-5. For walks and drop-in visits, I’m able to check in for feeding times, potty breaks, and play sessions throughout the day, with flexibility for visits if your schedule needs it. For boarding stays, your dog becomes part of my daily routine, joining me for walks, meals, and downtime at home with Panela and Milo, so they get consistent care and company around the clock rather than being left alone for long stretches. My two dogs, Panela (a Yorkie mix) and Milo (a Chihuahua), are both friendly and well socialized, so your dog will have some good company during their stay. My home is set up to be safe and comfortable for small to medium breeds, with secure spaces for rest and play. I keep a close eye on new dogs at first to make sure everyone settles in well together, and I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine for feeding, walks, and bedtime.
“Shara is an outstanding dog walker! Very professional. Proactively communicates and Kris me informed throughout the process and helps when I have issues with bookings or the app. She is really good with my old pitbull who really gets excited to see her! I can't recommend her enough.”

“Melissa was the best with my dramatic, stage 5 clinger, anxious lard ass of a dog. This dog did absolutely everything in her power to make the walks harder on Melissa, but Melissa quickly caught on to her BS and didn’t put up with it. Thank you Melissa, and I’m sorry.”

“We could not have asked for a better family to take care of Camden! They were so communicative and sent photos and videos multiple times a day. Camden got a ton of outside time and loved being with their dogs. Highly recommend and definitely will use again!”

“John was fantastic, and I definitely plan to use him next time I go away! He was super-professional (yet very friendly), sent me lots of pictures, and I could tell my dog Venus was happy as a clam while she was staying with John. I can't say enough about how great John was.”
