“Needed last minute care for the July 4th holiday and found Aaron and Tia! Very accomodating and happy i chose them! I was worried Howie would get anxious but the daily photos and videos assured me he was well cared for and happy! Thank you so much!”
“Kim cared for my pup as her own. She was very attentive to him and cared about his feelings. This was my pup’s first time with Kim so he was a little nervous. She cared for his every need and made sure he felt loved and comfortable in her care. Kim made sure that my pup had plenty of fresh air and had lots of attention, attention to the point where she slept near him so he would not feel lonesome. My pup was nice and calm when I picked him up which let me know Kim loved on him as I do. I will book again with Kim. Thank you Kim.”
“Brian was absolutely amazing with my little Princess! Text updates with pictures multiple times! Even when it was time to pick her up, she didn’t want to leave. Going forward we will only be using Brian. When we used to board her at Kennels, she would fall into a depression and refuse to eat and even drink water. When we picked her up, it was just like we came home from work. She was the same happy little princess like always. Thanks again Brian and l can speak for Ria when I say- she can’t wait to stay with you again!”
“Dasia was fantastic again! It’s so great to find someone you feel comfortable to watch your pet. Dasia provided updates and pictures throughout the stay. She was amazing.”
“Alana was amazing! She shared videos and pictures of Miles during his stay and as very responsive. Miles had a great time. We will definitely be repeat customers.”
“Exceeded my expectations! This dynamic duo is truly a dream team. They took very good care of my Tyson since the meet and greet! They are very communicative and will send you as little or as many updates as you can take. This was my first time away from my baby and it’s warming to find out I was the one with separation anxiety while he had a friend and a safe space to be a dog! Will DEFINITELY be using there awesome services again!”
“Zulma took such great care of my two Shitzus Louie & Zoey. I got regular photo/video updates which I really appreciated. She asked for permission, which I gave, to bathe them, they were most likely smelly due to the weather. Can I tell you when we picked them up they were so silky, shiney and soft! Even more so than when they come from the groomers. I really must ask her what is the product she used! We will most definitely book her again!”
“My pup was so spoiled in love and clearly very happy and comfortable! Best Rover stay she’s had yet! 🥰 I highly recommend booking with Melonie. She provided tons of photos, daily updates and was very thorough in our initial meet and greet. Thank you for caring for Gianna, Melonie!!”
“Roxsand was amazing. She is very personable and so attentive with the pups. My Chloe girl made new friends and was kept safe. Roxsand is extremely knowledgeable about caring for pets and her home is filled with love. I highly recommend her for keeping your fur baby.”
“Addie has stayed with Lauren before, and she enjoyed her stay this time overnight as well! She had a bath there, and her coat is so shiny and clean. We’re impressed with Lauren, and feel completely comfortable leaving Addie with her. We will be using Lauren again. Thank you!”
“As a repeat customer, I completely feel comfortable leaving my baby with Monica. She keeps me informed about every single detail while I'm away and sends a cute detailed "report card" every evening. Thank you, Monica! I truly appreciate you.”
“Vanessa & Gio were warm and welcoming. My fur baby, Blaze received exceptional care from them for the 5 days he spent with them. They are very attentive and followed my long list of daily instructions. I received daily updates with either video or pictures of Blaze which is important to my family. I will definitely use Vanessa & Gio for my future boarding needs.”
“Rae took good care of Jax. She took him in after a very last minute request from me to board for a weekend and was communicative. Would recommend her for anyone needing dog care boarding.”
“Sereniti was great! She provided updates throughout my dog’s stay with her, and even took care when my dog became sick and had digestive issues. She even went out of her way to allow us to pick my dog up late at night to be able to bring her home. Thank you so much!”
“We had a great experience with Cameron. She was quick to respond, put us at ease about leaving our puppies, sent daily photos or videos, and made drop off and pick up very easy. We would book with her again!”
“Julia sat our two pups this past weekend. She and her mom were attentive and kind to our fur babies. Both returned home relaxed and content. Julia was extremely responsive throughout the process, taking great care to ensure we felt comfortable and had multiple updates throughout our trip. Would absolutely recommend them both to anyone in need of a caring and professional sitter!”
“One word: Amazing! She was so kind and accommodating. My dog spent two nights there and absolutely loved it. They really treated my baby like he was their own. I will definitely be booking with her again. She sends lots of adorable photos and updates so I never had to wonder how he was doing.”
“I'm completely satisfied with my puppy Hami's visit with Monica. I'm always worried to leave him with anyone because he is a handfull. I was greeted by Rob on drop off and pickup. Hami was so excited to go inside he raced to the right door on his own. I was sent an update and picture during his stay. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Anna was great with our pup. Responsive on the app, adaptable with our dog, and we hardly missed him with the great pictures/videos. Would definitely trust her again with the care of dog.”
“I can’t thank Tanita & Terrence enough for taking such great care of my fur baby. He was so sad to leave. I believe Sage had more fun than I did on his weekend getaway 😆”

I’ll care for them as if they are my own and would love to spoil them.
“Steven was such a pleasure to meet and was extremely accommodating to a complicated drop in situation. He communicated extremely well and was really easy to work with. He even came up with ideas that made leaving our cat and dog even easier. He provided detailed notes with funny commentary, which I appreciated. He treated our pets as if they were his own and we can’t wait to work with him again! Highly recommend giving Steven a try.”
“Caitlyn did a wonderful job! She came before my trip to need Ophelia and learn what needed to be done and how to care for her. She showed up each evening on time and sent pictures , brought in package for me and let me know if anything was out of the norm! I highly recommend and will have her in the future!”

“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!”
“I had a last minute event come up and needed a next day sitter for Coco. Roxsand was very accommodating though it was last minute.

I'm very appreciative of her time, care and professionalism and Coco looks forward to coming back very soon for more fun! Thank you!”

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was about 10, so caring for them has always felt natural to me. Growing up, I helped walk, feed, and bathe the family and friends dogs, and over the years I’ve watched pets for relatives while they were on vacation, making sure they felt loved while their owners were away. Now I have two dogs of my own, Chloe and Remi, who I care for every single day. From feeding and playtime to just keeping them happy and comfortable, I truly enjoy making pets feel safe and cared for. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. I work part-time about three days a week and I’m a college student, but I come home on weekends and during holidays, which gives me plenty of time to focus on pets. Even on the days I work, my shifts are usually early mornings for 4–5 hours, so I’m free for afternoon, evening, and nighttime care. My schedule can be flexible and I’m able to adjust as needed, so I’m happy to work around what your pet needs. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I always follow their normal routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I treat every pet with patience, affection, and respect, just like I want my own pets to be treated. My motto is “treat others how you want to be treated,” and I bring that same care and kindness to every animal I look after.

About: I've taken care of pups since my daughter brought home our first baby, Cookie. We trained her to give her paw, sit, lay, and to kiss at "kiss" command. It's the cutest thing ever. She has been the Queen of the house ever since and then came along, Cinamon which is Cookie's daughter. They are best friends! Cookie had pups a while ago and we held her paw during birth and cared for her babies until they left us to our family members. Cookie is now considered a Senior but I always find ways to accommodate her needs so she can keep being the queen! We take constant walks around our neighborhood and also hang out in the big backyard. I'm currently not working; therefore, I have plenty of times to board and do drop in visits. I leave out occasionally to do grocery shopping, doctor appointments, and/or church services. I do not have a fenced yard but we do have secured long leashes to the soil which makes them feel like they are freely roaming around. We prefer to crate overnight but if your pup cannot do training for special reasons, we can accommodate. We currently have two small pups, a Yorkie and her daughter. They can be timid at first and will bark until they come down and get over the first couple minutes. We can put our babies away in separate rooms if needed be.
“Caryn was so professional and kind. Our dog is very stubborn and strong, and she handled him so well. She also did walks during one of the coldest weeks of the year without compliant. I am so lucky to have her take care of our Buddy. Highly recommend!”
About: I have cared for a variety of breeds with different temperaments, personalities and levels of care needs. I have experience in training and discipline with a number of different tools, so I am comfortable in most situations including walking dogs with reactive or pulling tendencies. I enjoy taking dogs on pack walks in the woods like at Acosta Regional Park. I am a full time pet care provider. I can offer morning and evening walks, daycare, overnights, transportation, baths, basic lease and agility training sessions. Your dog(s) will enjoying being a member of my "woof" pack whether they are joining us for a pack walk or overnight. I can also offer a daycare setting and pet transportation services.
About: My name is Taylor and I am a veterinary technician servicing the DMV area. I have been working with dogs specifically since I was 15 and cats since I was 18. I personally have a cat and have had dogs in the past, and I understand the stress put on the importance of finding someone that you can trust to watch your animals while you are away. Safety is my upmost concern and as a veterinary technician and a groomer, I am very experienced in dog and cat care and would love to babysit your little angel! I can't wait to meet you and thanks for visiting my profile! I currently work from home so I have more than enough time to devote to your pet and their individual needs. My hours are not necessarily tied to a desk or computer either, so I am able to do walks freely throughout the day. Depending on the customers request, I am able to accommodate most housing accomodations. There is a room specifically designated in the house for the pet for the duration of the stay, which has toys, beds, food and water as well as a TV. it’s also a daybed for me as well so that I am able to stay in the room with your pet. My backyard is large and it’s open, however I will be keeping pers on-leash anytime they are outside.

“Needed last minute care for the July 4th holiday and found Aaron and Tia! Very accomodating and happy i chose them! I was worried Howie would get anxious but the daily photos and videos assured me he was well cared for and happy! Thank you so much!”
“Kim cared for my pup as her own. She was very attentive to him and cared about his feelings. This was my pup’s first time with Kim so he was a little nervous. She cared for his every need and made sure he felt loved and comfortable in her care. Kim made sure that my pup had plenty of fresh air and had lots of attention, attention to the point where she slept near him so he would not feel lonesome. My pup was nice and calm when I picked him up which let me know Kim loved on him as I do. I will book again with Kim. Thank you Kim.”
“Brian was absolutely amazing with my little Princess! Text updates with pictures multiple times! Even when it was time to pick her up, she didn’t want to leave. Going forward we will only be using Brian. When we used to board her at Kennels, she would fall into a depression and refuse to eat and even drink water. When we picked her up, it was just like we came home from work. She was the same happy little princess like always. Thanks again Brian and l can speak for Ria when I say- she can’t wait to stay with you again!”
“Dasia was fantastic again! It’s so great to find someone you feel comfortable to watch your pet. Dasia provided updates and pictures throughout the stay. She was amazing.”
“Exceeded my expectations! This dynamic duo is truly a dream team. They took very good care of my Tyson since the meet and greet! They are very communicative and will send you as little or as many updates as you can take. This was my first time away from my baby and it’s warming to find out I was the one with separation anxiety while he had a friend and a safe space to be a dog! Will DEFINITELY be using there awesome services again!”
“My pup was so spoiled in love and clearly very happy and comfortable! Best Rover stay she’s had yet! 🥰 I highly recommend booking with Melonie. She provided tons of photos, daily updates and was very thorough in our initial meet and greet. Thank you for caring for Gianna, Melonie!!”
“Addie has stayed with Lauren before, and she enjoyed her stay this time overnight as well! She had a bath there, and her coat is so shiny and clean. We’re impressed with Lauren, and feel completely comfortable leaving Addie with her. We will be using Lauren again. Thank you!”
“Vanessa & Gio were warm and welcoming. My fur baby, Blaze received exceptional care from them for the 5 days he spent with them. They are very attentive and followed my long list of daily instructions. I received daily updates with either video or pictures of Blaze which is important to my family. I will definitely use Vanessa & Gio for my future boarding needs.”
“Sereniti was great! She provided updates throughout my dog’s stay with her, and even took care when my dog became sick and had digestive issues. She even went out of her way to allow us to pick my dog up late at night to be able to bring her home. Thank you so much!”
“We had a great experience with Cameron. She was quick to respond, put us at ease about leaving our puppies, sent daily photos or videos, and made drop off and pick up very easy. We would book with her again!”
“Julia sat our two pups this past weekend. She and her mom were attentive and kind to our fur babies. Both returned home relaxed and content. Julia was extremely responsive throughout the process, taking great care to ensure we felt comfortable and had multiple updates throughout our trip. Would absolutely recommend them both to anyone in need of a caring and professional sitter!”
“One word: Amazing! She was so kind and accommodating. My dog spent two nights there and absolutely loved it. They really treated my baby like he was their own. I will definitely be booking with her again. She sends lots of adorable photos and updates so I never had to wonder how he was doing.”
“I can’t thank Tanita & Terrence enough for taking such great care of my fur baby. He was so sad to leave. I believe Sage had more fun than I did on his weekend getaway 😆”

“Thank you once again for the great care that you took of Nala.😊 She is always excited to come see you guys and always enjoys her stay so we can’t thank you enough for everything.”
“I’ve been dragging my feet on leaving this review for one reason alone: I want to keep Elizabeth to myself! She is the best sitter I’ve been able to find on this app, and she is great at communicating both prior to a booking and during as well. My dog comes back happy and tired every time he stays with her and is always so excited to go back to her house. I trust her with my dog every time!”
“Shayla was amazing with Kingston! He seemed to have really enjoyed his stay with her while I was on vacation. Shayla made sure to send pictures each day and gives check ins which I appreciate! Kingston had so much fun and made a new puppy friend.”
“Matt and Kelly (and their sweet daughter!) took great care of Robbin while I was away! They took her on plenty of walks and runs and I received pictures while I was away which was very much appreciated.”
“Kelsey and Mallory went above and beyond to make Kofi’s stay comfortable and fun. Kofi had a blast running circles at the farm and playing with Mazie. Plus, the photo and video updates helped keep us at ease. Kofi was so clearly well cared for and was content to stick around the farm as long as we would let him. Kofi is already looking forward to his next visit!”
“Terez watched Reese for us during a quick weekend getaway. She was very flexible with our schedule in accommodating a pick up and drop off for us since we lived so conveniently close. Reese felt right at home with her. We will definitely use Terez again!”
