“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...”
“Christopher took excellent care of Oslo! He made sure Oslo stayed active and had plenty of playtime and it was clear he was having so much fun. I really appreciated all the picture updates throughout the day, it gave me peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. I would definitely recommend Christopher to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”
“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.”
“We love Roseline and Zeus! Our dog was in such good company with Roseline’s own pup, and was so spoiled by Roseline! We got photo and video updates every day, and appreciated Roseline’s patience with our dog’s quirks and energy.”
“Aashna and Sidhanth were great! They’re were very responsive and accommodating when I had to adjust the schedule. They sent pictures and updates twice a day. Will definitely be using them again!”
“Dave took great care of Penny while we were away for 10 days. Dave made the whole process very easy and was great to work with. We got daily updates with photos, and peace of mind knowing Penny was in good hands and sticking to her routine. When we picked her up, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-cared for. Dave followed the care instructions well. Reliable, communicative, and great with dogs. We’ll definitely be reaching out again for future trips and highly recommend Dave to anyone needing a trustworthy sitter!”
“Andrea and Michael couldn’t have been sweeter to our little pup. They kept us up to date with pictures and gave our little guy his daily medications. We could tell that he enjoyed his time there immensely. We have used other sitters but have never been happier than we were with Andrea and Michael. We would not hesitate to use them again. Highly recommend.”
“Poh was lovely! I was going out of town last minute and therefore needed a last minute booking and Poh was available with fast response times as well. She has great rates and took amazing care of my dog, she even offers grooming and cut my pups nails over the weekend! She sent daily photos/videos of my pup with others, and took great care of him. Her dogs are also adorable and well behaved. Very kind and professional boarder, we will definitely rebook in the future whenever he requires a home away from home!”
“I felt at ease the whole time I was away from my dog, I received photos and videos daily, which really made me feel comfortable with being away for so long. When I returned home my dog was calm and was clearly well taken care of.”
“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!”
“Cindy was outstanding with Elmo, he warmed up to her very quickly considering he has a reserved nature and resistance to routines changing. She was also very communicative and allowed for a straight forward reservation and handoff.”
“Elena was unbelievably accommodating—I accidentally booked a drop off and pick up in the same day and she was able to switch to the overnight boarding I intended! She even did various little supportive things like freezing a Kong for Inis on his ride home. Thanks a million Elena!!”
“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.”
“Masha and her family took excellent care of our dog. She sent updates a couple of times a day, pictures and videos included. We were able to relax in vacation knowing that our dog was comfortable with her. We would definitely book again!”

“Gingers stay with Adva and her family was great! We received pictures frequently and they were flexible about changing pick up and drop off times. Their yard was perfect and I know ginger felt right at home with them. Would highly recommend this house for your pet and definitely hope to have ginger stay with them again in the future! ”

About: I’ve been surrounded by cats my entire life and have always had a deep love and appreciation for their unique personalities. Over the years, I’ve gained experience caring for cats of all ages and temperaments, including fostering cats and helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every cat is different—some need extra patience and time to warm up, while others are immediately affectionate and playful. I’m attentive to their individual needs, routines, and boundaries, and I love creating a calm and trusting environment where they can feel happy and cared for.
“Julianna was excellent with my cats. My one girl can be pretty skittish and she seemed to warm up to her fairly quickly. She gave me thorough updates, took a ton of pictures, and immediately reached out with any questions. I felt at ease leaving my cats with her and would definitely book her again 🐱”
“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!”
“Krystian provided great care of our super senior cat, ensuring that she got her medications daily (this from a very finicky feline!). I would recommend Krystian without reservation.”
“Thank you again, I am thrilled with how well Bella was taken care of! I can tell she was very happy and did not fuss with me when I returned!, this is very important to me. Thank you so much!”
“I had to leave town last minute and I was able to book Jason to drop in for our cat. Dependable, followed directions exactly, very easy and pleasant experience- highly recommend.”
“This was my second time booking with Xin, and she was just as wonderful as the first time. She is incredibly attentive and caring, and my cat Tomo absolutely loves playing with her. It’s such a relief knowing my cat is happy and well cared for while I’m away. I’ll definitely continue to rebook with Xin in the future and highly recommend her!”
“We loved having Abigail watch our cat, Curie. She sent us so many cute photos and detailed updates for every visit, which really helped us feel like Curie was in good hands! Abigail has a way with animals; our cat took to her right away. We’d happily have Abigail pet sit whenever we’re out of town!”
“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!”
“Teffni is a fantastic pet sitter! We have 3 cats, one who is outgoing & two that are shy, Teffni was so great at letting them get to know here at their own pace. She also handled their different food needs and Nibblers medicine. She gave us updates and pictures during each visit so we knew the boys were happy and well taken care of while we were out of town. We came home to 3 very happy cats! Will definitely book Teffni again!”
“Carolina was very communicative and the kitties absolutely loved her. We enjoyed the pictures and updates after each visit. We highly recommend her as a cat sitter!”
“Courtney was incredible. Not only did she do really well with our older cat (who can be slow to trust) she went above and beyond including dropping by our house at night (after she had already visited our cat for the day!) to grab an important box of medicine and get it out of the rain and into the fridge (even though I told her it could wait a day to not inconvenience her!) She's really a great person, a wonderful sitter and our cat loved spending time with her!”
“As usual, I have full peace of mind when Melissa is caring for my sweet kitties at home. My cats absolutely love her and she does an amazing job at caring for them and keeping me informed. We are so lucky!”

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.
“Rachel and Maz hung out with Auggie while we toured Philadelphia for the day, and he was exhausted and happy when we picked him up! Thanks again!”
“Elena was really great with my dog! I’ve used her a few times now and my dog is super excited to be there and comes back to me super happy having had a great day with Elena!”

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.
“Paul was great. My dog is anxious around new people, especially men, and Paul was patient with her and helped her get comfortable. He also took her on long walks which she needs because she has a lot of energy so I appreciated how tired she was when we got home.”
“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: Family love!! We now own a Bugg (boston terrier/pug mix) named Moxie who is 4 and previously owned a rescue pug named Rosie who lived to be 15. We have a single family home and large fully fenced in yard and love pet sitting all our neighbors' pets! We also have three boys (ages 5, 9, 12) who are comfortable around pets and love to play with them. My husband and I both telework so someone is home every day of the week. Either my husband or I am home every day. We typically walk our Bugg, Moxie, 3 times a day and also have a large fully fenced yard for her to play. Our current dog, Moxie, is free to roam our house all day and she sleeps in our son's room at night in her doggie bed. We don't mind dogs on our furniture or in any room, but can also provide separation or crating if desired.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over a decade providing in home and on location care. I’ve worked with stage 5 clingers, rowdy puppies, and senior dogs and have loved every step and every challenge each one brings. I genuinely view our pets as some of the most important members of our family and treat everyone else’s pets as though they were my own. I am working a remote job so I am home all day to take care of my dog (and yours!) I am available throughout the week for care and can provide most any service needed. I have a fenced in yard and a super friendly Italian greyhound. I am constantly looking to provide my dog with the best life she can have and will do the exact same for any dog I am caring for because when they are in my care they are treated like they are a part of my family.
About: 15 years of own pet care experience. I have cared for pets and volunteered on animal shelters before. I own a frenchie boy who is very calm , never barks and loves to eat. If needed on a case by case basis I can arrange to have your baby in my care alone :) Loved animals since little. I will love your pet like its my own. I’m a civil engineer with a frenchie pup working from home! Dog-walking or pet sitting will be a smooth addition to my daily routine that your pup and I will enjoy! Meet and greets needed for dog sitting. Will send you photos or text to let you know how your pet is doing! Please let me know of any fears your pup has. I typically let my dog sleep my couch or bed but will ask for permission first.
About: I’m a reliable and attentive dog sitter who takes the time to understand each dog’s specific needs and routine. I have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs, so I’m comfortable adjusting my approach depending on their age, energy level, and behavior. With puppies, I focus on reinforcing good habits like basic commands, potty training routines, and appropriate play. I stay consistent with whatever training style the owner prefers to help support their progress. I also have experience with senior care, including giving medications, monitoring mobility, and making sure older dogs stay comfortable and don’t overexert themselves. I pay close attention to any changes in behavior and keep owners updated. I’m patient, observant, and make sure every dog feels safe, cared for, and well looked after. I am a college student at Penn State University and am back for summer, so I’m free everyday and am flexible with timing to fit your needs. I follow each pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I stick to their feeding, walking, and care instructions while making sure the pet gets plenty of attention and exercise.
“This was my first daycare service with Andrea and she was phenomenal. She would provide detailed updates that were clear and consistent. My dog is weary of new people but upon drop off, I was told that she was excited to go in and see Andrea. There were a couple days where my dog's tummy was not feeling well, and Andrea listened and followed to instructions well to work together to make sure Moa recovered quickly. Thank you, Andrea, for taking such good care of Moa while I was away on a overseas trip. You truly gave me a peace of mind, knowing that Moa was in good and caring hands. I would recommend Andrea to anyone in the area who is looking for daycare! ❤️”
“My husky puppy has been going to daycare at Ming’s for about a month, and he’s still excited to go every time. Trust Ming and the team to love and care for your pup as if he/she were their own.”

“Evelyn responded promptly to my request for a dog walk and she came over and met my dog and I within 48 hours. I have a rescue dog with anxiety when it comes to new people. Evelyn was so sweet and patient with her. I even had a last minute change up where I had to add another dog that Evelyn had not met (friend having a baby), and she was accommodating and happy to help. 100% recommend Evelyn!”
About: Dogs are just wonderful. I just don’t have the right words to explain how special they are and how much I love them. I and my family have owned several dogs in the past and I have taken care of others’s dogs. Due to the immense joy dogs have always brought me I still want them in my life. I have a very open, flexible, schedule, as I am a substitute teacher. I would not be working a full day when and/or if I do work, and I am a five minute drive from work. It can fit very easily into routine. I live in a condo building with much open space to walk my dog. There are many dogs in my bldg. I live in a big two bedroom apartment.
“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.”
“Our dogs love Helena! She is very kind, caring, and punctual. Our dogs loves Helena’s warm personality and they greet her with lots of love. Our little cavapoo Whitney is typically fearful and a little anxious at times. Whitney has quickly warmed up to Helena and not as anxious doing the transfer of leash at the door. Thank you so much Helena for your love, care and patience you give our fur babies.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Melissa was an amazing dog walker! She was reliable, punctual, and genuinely cared about our dog. Communication was excellent, and she always kept us updated, which gave us complete peace of mind. Our dog was excited to see her and came home happy after walk. We truly appreciate all the care and attention she gave him. I highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and caring dog walker!”
“Shreejaya is incredibly kind and helpful with walking our dog and checking in on our cat. She is just the best and we really appreciate her! Highly recommend if you’re looking for pet sitting, dog walking, etc.”
“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.”
“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.”
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.
“Oyindamola was so sweet and caring to my Cali! She sent me so many videos and kept me updated on all the activities they did! Really happy with her and would 100% book her again! Thank you for the love and dedication ❤️”
“Amelia is the best!!! She’s been so very patient with our dog, Leah, who has major anxiety issues. She’s always prompt and timely in her communication. Leah just adores her and that makes us very happy.”
About: I have had many different dogs over the years and cared for more than one dog at a time, which makes me very comfortable in caring for your fur babies and understanding their many personalities. Also, I believe socialization is very important for all dogs so if you are comfortable, I am able to take them to a dog park (I have one near my home). This will allow them to create new friends and make their experience more enjoyable. Overall, I am trying to avoid getting another pet, so if you let me care for your fur baby I would heavily appreciate it :D As you can tell from my photos I treat all pets like they are a part of my family. Rest assured your baby and I will become best friends. I am a remote worker which allows me more time to care for your babies and a lot of flexibility. I believe this would be a mutually beneficial relationship as I'd be able to enjoy my day playing with dogs, while you won't be worried about taking your dog out. If you ever need to board your dog I am available on the weekends and if you need a house sitter because it would make your fur baby more comfortable I am flexible on those dates as well. I have a multitude of toys, treats, and puzzles to keep them engaged and happy. I also have a dog park which tends to not be busy which allows for running and fetch time in a safe environment.

Highly recommend.”

“Evan and his wife stepped in at the very last minute to take care of Kobi for the weekend - and not only did they agree, but they were so enthusiastic it felt like I was doing them a favor and not the other way around! Communication was great with check ins during the day and drop off/pick up went smoothly. So grateful to have found them!”
“Absolutely wonderful! They took extra care to ensure our German Shepherd girl would eat. She often will not eat while boarding. They made sure she felt comfortable and also sent us a ton of pics which made us feel very comfortable. Loved our experience with them!”
“George was extremely responsive and sent frequent updates and pictures. He was also very flexible. Atticus had aa fantastic stay and appeared really well cared for! Will definitely book again.”
“Nicole was even better than I hoped. She was very attentive to my aging dog, and went above and beyond in accommodating her and making her feel at home. Even Nicole's dog took care of Bryn, letting her sleep in his bed and letting her drink water before he did. I was worried about choosing an apartment caregiver, but it turned to be perfect - carpeted halls and elevators made it easy for Bryn to get around.”
“Maria took excellent care of our 8 month old very energetic bernedoodle, Jerry. He stayed with her for a week and came back happy & healthy. She really loves the dogs and gets to know them and their personalities. She even made sure she was watching another puppy so that he would have another dog his age and energy level to play with. She sent many daily photos of him playing with his new friends. From them I could see that she was walking him often and he always looked like he was having a great time. Since we are new to Rover I wasn't really sure what to expect and was a bit nervous, but knowing that Jerry was happy helped me have a great trip without worry. Thank you Maria!”
“Marion and Blue took such good care of our dog in her recent vacation. She got so much exercise and so many snuggles. Would definitely recommend Marion and Blue to everyone!”
