“Diana and Felipe were great hosts to our less than one year old puppy during an international trip we took. Even though the boarding was very challenging, they were able to manage it and even decided against telling us about the challenges right off the bat so we enjoyed our vacation. They also sent pictures everyday which we appreciated. In all, are very happy as they have been very communicative thru it all. Thank you for taking care of our puppy.”
“Jacquline was very efficient with feedback and she sent pictures of bailey enjoying her time with Jacquline family. Jacquline is kind and loves animals. She and her daughter was the perfect match for bailey while I was on vacation. I would definitely work with Jacquline again.🥰🥰”
“Absolutely the kindest and most caring people. They take amazing care of Taake - like she is their own. I never wonder how Taake is doing because Maria and Fernando send frequent photos and updates. These are people you can trust, don’t hesitate to send your pup to Maria and Fernando. ❤️”
“Yasheen took excellent care of our high-spirited lab mix pup. He sent daily pics and was communicative throughout our trip. When Milo returned to us he was happy and healthy. We plan to use him again when next we’re out of town!”
“My boy Saint lovesss Yukia. After a 9 day stay he didn’t want to come home. I know under her care he is safe, active and loved. She speaks his love language — Amazon box lol. Yukia is officially Saint’s auntie. There’s no one like her.”
“Annette was very responsive and took care to make sure that Buddy felt comfortable in her home. I would recommend her for folks that need overnight care for their pups (large or small). Thank you.”
“Our dog clearly had the best time at Sarah’s! She LOVED getting to play with Sarah’s pup Cooper. Sarah was perfectly communicative. Will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Michelle is amazing! I'm always anxious about leaving my fur babies but Michelle put my mind at ease! She kept me informed and provided my Bella with so much love and attention!! I'd give 10 stars if I could”
“I was really concerned about my fur baby because she’s never been without family, EVER! We met Paula and her daughter at our arranged meet and greet which went well. When I dropped her off her her new friend on Friday, I told her to be a good girl and she looked back at me and turned running off with her new friend. They contacted us everyday, gave us updates with photos. I really think it was a good experience for both of them as well as myself. I will definitely rehire Paula and her wonderful family as my permanent sitter! 5 Stars ⭐️”
“Crystal is amazing! She made sure from our zoom meeting to the pick up of my puppy, that we communicated well & that my puppy Nami was safe and happy! I appreciate her attentiveness to Nami, she sent daily updates and pics! I will definitely use her services again! Thanks Crystal!”
“Cannot recommend Sharon enough. She cares for my pup Eli like her own, has a way with dogs, and is incredibly kind, trustworthy, and reliable. I’ve had to travel a lot over the last few years and we would be lost without her!”
“Robert and Pamela were amazing with my girl! They treated her as their own and she came back super happy! I received daily pictures and was overall really impressed. They have a large backyard that is perfect for playtime. I realized I didn’t have enough food for my girl while I was going to be gone, and they even offered to help pick up more food for her. Super sweet people! Definitely will be using them again!”
“Angela was so very warm, welcoming, and kind to our puppy. Minnie took to her right away, and because of the meet and greet, she knew exactly where we were going when we dropped her off. Angela was very thorough, asking all the important questions, and she even let my daughter visit to say hi to Minnie.”
“Shhh...don't let secret out. Best family EVER to pet sit our Mercy. Multiple stays. They are great, including with ear drops and allergy pills. The whole family shows only love. Mercy clearly enjoys her stays and has no hesitations when I drop her off.”
About: I am very active and like to walk 3 or so miles everyday, leave your dog with me and they will make sure to get good exercise! I work from home and have great deal of flexibility! I can change my schedule quickly to meet the needs of the day or the dog! I like to make sure they are well fed and well exercised while having a quite spot for themselves if they like or an ability to be right next to me the entire day.
“Paola took great care of my dog and sent me lots of pictures and updates and was extremely flexible when my flights were delayed with the timing of picking my dog up. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Sorry the late review. Bria was great with my puppy. This was the first time that I use this app and sitter so I was nervous, but Bria kept me posted to see how my puppy was doing and she sent videos on how my puppy is doing, so I felt at ease. Most definitely would recommend Bria to anyone and I will be using Bria again if I need a sitter.”
About: I had a dog gowning up and I now have a dog for over 2 years, I understand when you need a little extra help. I've also helped with my friend's puppy when she got her puppy last year. I've always loved furbabies and would look to help you with yours. I work full-time currently, however I work from home on Mondays & Fridays. My weekend are pretty free as long as visits a scheduled in advance. I would go with whatever recommendation you would like for your dog at your home. I will only do visits at my own home if absolutely necessary due to my dog being cautious of other dogs. He's friendly but, it just stresses him out a bit. I can also drop my dog off at my parents home if needed.
“Cal and Kelly took great care of our large German Shepherd Loki for his (and our!) first Rover experience. Loki hadn't spent a lot of time with other dogs in close quarters prior to this stay, but Cal put us at ease in our initial meet-and-greet with him and both their dogs. We also really appreciated the regular communication throughout Loki's stay. Cal and Kelly were always super responsive and they sent us high-quality photos and videos of Loki every day playing with other dogs and looking like he was having a great time. Would definitely recommend to others and will be boarding Loki with Cal and Kelly again!”

“Kristy is amazing and super easy to work with. She did drop ins for my two cats and she took wonderful care of them. I can’t recommend her enough. She went the extra mile on everything and I will be booking with her as long as she continues to do this.”
“Christine was a fantastic sitter for my two kittens! She wrote great status updates and shared lots of cute photos. She clearly loves taking care of pets. Would definitely hire her again and recommend her to a friend.”
“Excellent cat sitter! Went above and beyond to make sure our two cats were well taken care of during a week long trip. We got detailed updates after every visit with pictures which was very comforting. She put in extra effort to befriend our shy cats while respecting their space and comfort level. She was also very personable and offered to help with other tasks (bringing in our trash bins) to help keep our home safe, too. Absolutely would recommend!”
“Liz took great care of my cat and made sure he did not bother the fish haha. He even sat on Liz’s lap, which he does with very few people. I came home to a happy kitty after my trip”
About: I’m the go-to dog sitter for my friends and family. I’ve watched pitbulls, rotties, small dogs, you name it. I had rescue pit mix for 3 years. She was older and I was glad to spend the time I could with her. I learned a lot about separation anxiety, leash reactivity and the impact of positive reinforcement. I work from home and am flexible. Just message me and I’ll respond asap to confirm or reschedule. I don’t have a set time I can provide at this time. I have a cat at home. She’s a bit fearful of larger and high energy dogs. I won’t do dog sitting in my home until I’ve accessed the dog with previos visits. I can drop by and stay for a few hours if you prefer or just drop by for the food/ bio break. Dog walks will always be 1-1. Unless they’re siblings. On leash with plenty of treats and water.
“Could not be happier with the way Connie took care of my cat. I really appreciated the daily updates and photos, and I could tell when I returned home that he had been well cared for as he was a happy dude. I will definitely try to book her again in the future.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Paola was an absolutely incredible sitter for our special needs cats. She was very attentive, communicated about our kitties regularly, and was easily reachable for any questions we had. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our cats, Paola!”
“We’ve had Astrid cat sit for us 4 times now and she is THE BEST!! She is so sweet and accommodating, trust worthy, and you can tell she really loves and adores our animals. She also sends the cutest pictures. If you are wondering whether or not to book her, DO IT!! She is so wonderful. Thanks Astrid :)”
“Denise took great care of my cat, Socks! She made sure to take some time to play with him and give him his favorite treats and also went above and beyond to clean up a mess he made. Thanks Denise!”
“Emily was awesome, and took amazing care of my babies! Friendly and easy to work with, social with the fur-babies, and provided timely visits complete with full care and great communication - photos, statuses, and helpful observations! I'll definitely be booking Emily to care for the kids for my next trip! Thanks so much!!”
“Michael is wonderful! He took excellent care of our pets and our house. He left us detailed updates and pictures each day. I would book again with Michael without hesitation. He is great!”
“Julia was great - she is very responsive and detail-orientated. The cats knocked over a photo frame during our trip and she cleaned up the glass for us because she knew it would be a hazard for their little paws. Great cat sitter, definitely plan to hire Julia again!”

“Lakshme was terrific, and this will be the only sitter my dog goes to!!!. I usually don’t write reviews unless I had an excellent experience or a terrible experience. I requested a last-minute daycare stay for my three-month-old Yorkipoo with Lakshme because of her excellent reviews. When I tell you all that Lakshme was overly sweet and helpful, she indeed was. I requested the stay at 9:30 am, and she accepted it my 11:00 am. I needed to leave by noon that day, and I expressed that I only wanted my dog to stay with her because of her experience and great reviews. However, she was out eating and told me she could pick my pup up from the house by 1:00 pm if I were okay with that. I said, of course, and she didn’t charge me. She just did it out of the kindness of her heart! She got there precisely at 1:00 pm. My pup was happy to see her. She sent me videos and pics of their introduction, their ride to her house, my pup eating and playing with her dogs. Unfortunately, my plans were canceled, and I had to come back to get my key; she said Zigi could stay until 6:00 pm and play with her dogs. She was a very kind person and my pup’s first dog sitter, and the overall experience exceeded my expectations.”
“Tiffany has again been amazing with accommodating our ever-changing schedules. Our dog feels totally comfortable with her and gets excited to see her in the mornings. We are definitely lucky to have found someone to take such great care of our girl!”
“Mei regularly cares for my older dog Bear and she does a fantastic job. She takes him on walks and I feel confident that he will have a wonderful day in her care. I highly recommend Mei!”
“Jeramy is amazing! She is so patient and loving with our girl and her dog Henry is so sweet. What a relief to have someone who is kind and dependable to watch our dog. Highly recommend!!!”
“Crystal is so amazing!!! She is patient, thoughtful and caring. My Junior was well taken care and I felt comfortable with leaving him with Crystal. I’ve already booked my next appointment for Junior and I know there will be many more appointments in the future. Crystal is the best!!!”
“Sharon took great care of my dog, Beanie! We have been with Sharon for the past 3 years now and she has been awesome with day care and overnight care. Thank you Sharon!!”
“We had such a great experience with this daycare! They were absolutely amazing—so kind, attentive, and clearly loves what they do. Saint had the best time and really bonded with their dog, Kai. They went on walks, played together, and even had time to rest and nap, which I really appreciated. I felt completely at ease knowing Saint was in such good hands. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Arly has been going to Francine's for 2 weeks now and its been Great, she seems very happy and we're very satisfied with her quick transition there. Thanks Francine for your TLC of our baby girl :)”
“Ulfred had a wonderful first day with Angelina. He received lots of snuggles (his favorite activity) and went to see the neighbors horses. He is looking forward for his next visit.”
“Jeremy is a great dog sitter. He is always very responsive, and he is does a great job in sharing any updates and pictures during the day. Thanks again for taking such good care of our dog!”
“We’ve used Marta’s services twice. So far so good! Marta is very nice and my pup seems happy. She took the time to meet with me before his first daycare, which I think helped with a smooth transition.”
“Maria and Fernando are amazing!! They’re super flexible and accommodating with my unpredictable schedule changes and so wonderful to work with. This is the nth time my pup has gone to see them and every time he’s all wiggles and excitement when he sees them! They take such good care of him, and he comes back work out and tired too. I recommend them to anyone looking for someone to take care of your fur babies☺️ thank you both again for taking such good care of Ron! We’ll see you next time!”
“Toby was in heaven everyday. He came home walking on sunshine everyday. Minelis was so thoughtful and share such kind thoughts. Toby was smiling in all the photos she sent. So happy to have Minelis. Toby has a second home!”
“My puppy goes to daycare at Ashley's house once a week. Ashley takes really good care of my puppy and keeps me updated with photos and how things are going. She is also very quick to respond to my requests.”
“Charvé was a life saver with a last minute request when my other sitter arrangements changed. She was warm and welcoming and she kept me updated. My dog also had a blast meeting new friends.”
“This was Teddy’s 3rd time with Susan. It gives me peace of mind to know he is well cared for by her. She is great with communication, and I can tell Teddy is comfortable with her.”
“Bria was amazing with my 2 fur babies - one small and one giant. She was extremely accommodating to all my needs and went above and beyond what I expected. I have never had someone be so gracious about last-minute changes and my dogs absolutely loved her! I am so happy that I found Bria to help with my doggies!”

“I love Shanae's energy and truly appreciate the ease of setting up the dog walks! My pup loves her on initial meet up!! She's very responsive, informative and extremely helpful. ❤️”
About: I have been caring for my own pets for 10+ years and could like to get into formal care. I have also pet sat for my friends and family in the past. As of now I am available daily for pet sitting or walking. I don’t mind waking up early. Would prefer not to be out too late alone. I like to hang out with my dog and take him for walks. He’s pretty lazy though so we just sit together a lot of the time. I will follow any instructions you leave.
“She is reliable and always shows up on time. And Taresse even brought in my big heavy packages from the front step which was not expected at all but very appreciated!!”
“Marina is the BEST! She writes incredibly detailed report cards, gives Thor so much love and attention, takes amazing photos, and always arrives on time as expected. We are so happy we found Marina to walk Thor, we know he is always in good hands with her!”
“Vanessa is wonderful! We are newbies to Rover and she has been a huge help in learning to use the platform and providing services for our little guy. 🐾 I love that she took lots of pictures to share with us and her note from her visit was very detailed! She is responsive to messages and incredibly helpful. We are so happy to have had the opportunity yo work with Vanessa and plan to schedule more walks with her!”
“Stellar communication and super adaptable to my changing plans. I appreciated his focus on safety for my pup by initiating a meet and greet and being contentious of the heat index with my senior dog’s capabilities.”
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!
“Majdoline has been awesome from the moment I reached out! Super responsive, always on time, and my pup loves her. My dog can be a bit quirky, but Majdoline handles him really well. Would highly recommend booking her!”
“Madeline has been an awesome dog walker. She shows up on time and my German shepherd absolutely loves her ! I hope to always be able to book with Madeline in the future.”
“Kathryn is def up for the challenge with our dog. Lexus does not like a lot of people but Kathryn has made the cut. Good feedback on the walk. And she can work the house alarm system. 👍👍👍”
“Joshua was very thoughtful and communicative! We’re looking forward to having him as part of our regular walking team for our pups. The dogs loved him and we appreciate the help and genuine care!”
“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.”
“Appreciate Nicole's care and attention for my pup Cassie on their walk. Cassie likes to take her time, stopping to sniff spots or lay down, so I booked an hour walk. Nicole made sure she got the full walk in so Cassie could enjoy her usual exercise and mental stimulation.”
About: I am a lifelong pet owner and animal lover with over 25 years of caregiving experience. I have had dogs almost continuously since kindergarten ranging in size from a 5 lb poodle mix (Trooper) to a 95 lb yellow lab (Nala), in addition to 3 years as a parent to 2 cats, Jules and Gemini. Jules was with us only briefly due to her advanced age when she was adopted, while Gemini is a much younger kitten who wasted no time claiming my home as her own. I also recently lost my 10 year old corgi (Sadie) unexpectedly to an extremely aggressive form of cancer, and so would love the opportunity to spend some therapeutic time with your furry kid. Prior to beginning work through Rover, I have several years of experience caring for cats and dogs for a variety of friends, family, and neighbors including everything from drop-in visits and dog walking to full-time house/petsitting. Outside of my petsitting duties, I am a PhD chemist working hard to make the battery in your phone last longer and your electric car drive further. My wife and I moved to the Silver Spring area in 2024 for her job as a television producer and I am in the process of establishing myself in the DMV research community. Availability: Except in special cases, I am available for booking at any time of day, any day of the week. I am happy to provide everything from drop-in visits to extended overnight stays. I am currently working part-time from home, so I am excited to have the opportunity to care for your pets at any time! This can include drop-in visits to your home, overnight stays with your fur baby, and day-care or boarding at my home (as long as they're friendly with my cat Gemini). I am glad to visit your home as frequently as you prefer. All visits will include checks for water quantity and freshness, any prescribed food refills or walks, and of course play time. I'm also happy to provide overnight care for your pets and home if preferred, please send me a message if you are interested in more long-term visits. I'm also very happy to host your pets in my own home! I have plenty of room for cats and dogs up to 50-70 lbs. Both my wife and I have had pets our entire lives and between the two of us, someone is nearly always home to supervise and provide any needed care. Since I live in an apartment complex, I do not have a private yard but do have plenty of communal space for walks and other outdoor activity.

“Ended up needing a last minute sitter and Liz & Jeff were able to accommodate. Had great communication leading up to a meet and greet with our girl and their resident pups, and a few days later dropped off Goose for her stay. Super responsive, gave great updates and photos and videos galore for my girl. Knowledge with dogs overall and their interactions with people and animals was great! Their family and resident dogs were exactly what I’d want for someone watching my own while I’m away. Will definitely become a return client😊”
“Cal and Kelly took great care of our large German Shepherd Loki for his (and our!) first Rover experience. Loki hadn't spent a lot of time with other dogs in close quarters prior to this stay, but Cal put us at ease in our initial meet-and-greet with him and both their dogs. We also really appreciated the regular communication throughout Loki's stay. Cal and Kelly were always super responsive and they sent us high-quality photos and videos of Loki every day playing with other dogs and looking like he was having a great time. Would definitely recommend to others and will be boarding Loki with Cal and Kelly again!”
“Casper absolutely loved his stay!! I absolutely can't stress enough how wonderful these two were with caring for our fur baby! We got daily updates and they were so kind and friendly. 100/10 recommend and will definitely keep in mind for future stays!”

Our dog can be a nervous with new people, but she loved Jeramy and had a great time during her stay. She also sent lots of pictures and videos to keep us in the loop. We will definitely be using her again :)”
“Tiffany is absolutely amazing! Drexel has loved spending time with her family and gives her hugs and kisses when he leaves. She sent me many detailed updates and photos and even gave him a bath. She was also able to extend our boarding time when our trip was extended. I really appreciate her kindness, flexibility, and 100% trust he with the care of Drexel!”
“Our dog Suki had a wonderful first stay with Rebecca. She was very generous with her time ahead of his visit and agreed to meet up twice so he could get used to her. She sent regular pictures and updates during our trip, took him on trail walks, and asked thoughtful questions about his diet. We would definitely book with her again!”
“Jasmine was wonderful! She kept both of my dogs over a long weekend and they had so much fun. She sent daily pictures and videos and she was always in contact with me. I will definitely use her again.”
