“Crystal was amazing with our dog! She had great communication throughout, was super friendly, and kept us updated with plenty of pictures and videos. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pup was happy and well cared for. We’ll definitely work with her again!”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Estela and her family! From the very beginning, their communication was outstanding—they provided daily updates and photos, and followed every instruction with great care and attention to detail. This was our first time leaving our youngest behind, and we felt completely at ease knowing our fur babies were in such loving hands. It was clear when we picked them up that both Gianni and Valentino were happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Their behavior spoke volumes about how comfortable they were during their stay. We even ended up extending our trip, and Estela was incredibly accommodating. We’re so grateful for the exceptional care and will definitely be using their services again in the near future.”
“Payton is awesome and she truly cares for my dogs. She takes really good care of them and gives me plenty of updates (pictures, video, and messages) while they're in her care. She is the only one in this area that I trust to watch my dogs!”
“Valeria is a wonderful sitter. She took good care of Zara and made her felt at home in her place. She is reliable and very kind. I was going for a long trip and was rushing so I forgot Zara’s food. She offered to buy it so I will not drive back. I just reimbursed her. I appreciate her maturity and sense of responsibility. Zara had enjoyed her stay with Valeria. We will avail of her pet sitting service next time.”
“Stephanie was such a great host to my dog Bruno, she maintained communication/updates throughout the visit and was very attentive to my instructions for Bruno given he has a hard time adjusting to new places. Would definitely book with them again! -Lindsay”
“Nicole is such a sweet person! Her love for animals by the way she took care of my pooch. She kept me updated and sent tons of really nice pictures. I most definitely will be using her services again!”
“Great photos of our elderly cat, relaxing, cuddling, and enjoying her pampered visit. Sonya went above and beyond to swing by our house and pick up medicine we'd forgotten. Great peace of mind knowing Maya was in safe, capable hands!”
“Christian was so great with Itty! She sent me pictures everyday of them out on walks and Itty curled up in the house. I would definitely recommend booking with her!”
“Amazing! My dog and I are joined at the hip and I don’t love leaving her just anywhere! Rouday was so kind and my dog took good care of him right away. His flexibility and graciousness with me almost stood out more than his professionalism and care with my dog. Highly recommend!!!”
“Kelly and Maurice make Zoey feel like part of their family. We received videos and pictures multiple times throughout the day during our travel which really put us at ease. We can’t wait to use Kelly and Maurice during our next vacation.”
“Sabrina was great with my dog. She provided regular photo and video updates that provided me extra comfort that he was in good hands while I traveled. Will definitely use her services again!”
“So happy to book with Mark again. He and Antoinette take such great care of my baby, and they are so communicative. And the pictures are always fantastic! Spud had a great time as always, and we look forward to our next stay!”
“Diego met with us for meet & greet & when we dropped off Totoro (5yo Pug; partially blind), we went over details of his stay & T’s routine. Detailed & kept us updated with frequent pics & videos, highly recommend!”
“I greatly recommend Tasha. Not only is she a dog lover; she has years of experience as a vet tech. I recall being told at her clinic to "ask Tasha," when it came to a medical question and a vet wasn't nearby. I can read my dogs, and they were fine. She kept me regularly updated with photos. I wouldn't hesitate for a moment to use her service again.”
“Luisa was incredible with our pup who was staying with her for the very first time. From the consistent updates (photo AND video) to the text updates of how he was managing, she let us have a full trip with a peace of mind! Could not recommend enough!”
“This was Balee's first boarding stay with Mady. She and her family were Ah-Mazing! I felt bad leaving because of an ear infection that he was diagnosed with a day before our departure. Balee received lots of TLC during his visit and Mady kept me updated about his adjustment daily (which was comforting).”
“Kiki was amazing with my corgi pup, Mushu! She's a true professional and kept me updated every day with adorable photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind during Mushu's first extended boarding stay. It was clear that Mushu was happy, well cared for, and having a great time. Mushu and I can't wait to book with Kiki again!”
“Lia was so attentive to my dog Violet! So great to know she was in such good hands, Lia asked great questions and clearly cared to make Violet comfortable and happy during her stay.”
“Bria was great! Extremely responsive when I booked. Very knowledgeable about caring for my daughter’s Yorkie! I didn’t have to provide much instructions, she just knew what our fur baby needed! She loved on our dog the entire time he was with her!! 5 out of 5! Highly recommend!”

“Chelsea was a pleasure to have as a sitter. I had a mixup with booking and she was so flexible and adjusted her schedule to accommodate me. She is very responsive and followed instructions. My cat loved her. Will book again!”
“Amber is very professional, while maintaining a jovial demeanor. I thoroughly enjoyed our discourse, and her care of my cats. She was very thorough, responsive and kept me updated on their goings on whine I was away. The cats were immediately at ease with her, and loved her, which was very important to me. 10/10!!”
“Erica, we want to thank you so much for taking excellent care of our 4 cats. Erica was checking in on our cats twice daily for the week we were on vacation. She arrived right on schedule each day and fed and cared for our cats, and before checkout sent pictures from each visit. When we arrived home our pets were happy and well cared for, thanks to Erica. I highly recommend Erica to anyone who is looking for a reliable, honest and trustworthy caretaker for your pets.”
About: I grew up with multiple cats alongside our dogs and i love them just as much! I have experience with medications and even nail clipping, and I’m happy to help out with your kitty however needed!

“Irma was fantastic with our cat! Punkin was so comfortable with her after five days, he literally didn’t want to leave. We’re so happy that we found her, and that Punkin has a new “babysitter.” Thank you, Irma❤️”
About: Attention paw parents! While I may not have formal training, what I lack in credentials, I make up for with my experience as a form dog mom (RIP Amor), genuine love, ability to follow instructions, and availability. I'm a natural when it comes to connecting with furry friends, and am intentional about following instructions and matching your standard of care.

I understand the importance of consistency and will work with you to establish the routine that suits your pet's needs. In my home, your pet will have access to a dog park within our complex for socializing and exercise. We also have a convenient ground-floor backyard patio for quick breaks and outdoor relaxation.

Whether your pet stays with us or we visit your home, rest assured they'll receive personalized care tailored to their needs, including exercise, rest, and proper feeding.
About: I’ve taken care of cats since my family first adopted 2 when I was 7 years old. In the 3 years that I had cats, Angel (the female) had two litters. At one point we had 8 cats living in our home after her first litter was born. It was pretty chaotic at times but I really did enjoy it. Onyx (the male) was an outdoor cat. Very adventurous and curious. I by default made friends with the other neighborhood cats that I knew to be friendly towards Onyx because of his adventurous nature. I’m also knowledgeable on how to thoroughly clean out a litter box.
About: I have cared for many stray cats by providing them with food and shelter until I was able to find them loving homes. I also have a cat of my own, so I understand the patience, care, and attention cats need to feel safe and comfortable. In addition, I currently work in an animal hospital, where I regularly handle and care for cats of all ages and personalities. My hospital also offered boarding services, giving me experience in feeding, monitoring, administering medications when needed, cleaning litter boxes, and ensuring cats are comfortable while their owners are away.
“Pepper has enjoyed her stays with Nasheia and Nina so much that we have made it a weekly thing. With other sitters I would drop pepper off and she would run back to me to pick her up and not want to leave. As soon as Pepper saw Nina she forgot all about me. She comes home happy and tired from all her playing.”
About: I am an animal lover and have had various types of animal companions throughout my lifetime. Currently I am the Farm operator for our Urban farm. We raise ducks and chickens but they are always separate from visiting pups. Only within view for their entertainment and relaxation here on the farm. Yes we are located nearby in the city 🥰 I have a quiet understanding with most animals that I come across and enjoy their company. I have sat for many of my friends and family and am the go to person when someone needs to go out and about but cannot take their pet family members. I am currently focusing on dog sitting and have dedicate my time to being available to meet as many fur babies as I can in the next couple months. I have a room dedicated to pet care which has a greenhouse feel with plants but is fully enclosed in the home. It has a doggy door which leads out to our fully fenced back yard and large dog run with a insulated dog house inside. I also have a wireless camera on the areas which allow me to make sure that everyone is ok at all times. Please note that I no longer accept large breed dogs at this time aside from past clients. I am currently focusing my time on pet sitting. I am always also checking in via webcam on the pups wherever I am. Dog personalities are so amazing and fun to see. I have a double fenced yard to keep your pets safe. Lots of open dog crates and bedding for snoozing. A dog door that allows them some freedom and a large dedicated outdoor dog area for doggie playtime. They also always have access to fresh cool water.
“Tandy was amazing! She responded very quickly to my last minute booking and was very accommodating of my schedule. Flexible and detailed, the cats loved her! She made sure that my cat Sigmund took his thyroid medication and kept me informed of everything they were up to. Tandy double checked with me if any questions came up, which I really appreciated. 6/5 stars!!”
About: Dogs, cats, puppies, seniors — I’ve cared for them all. I’m not just a sitter, I’m the friend your pet didn’t know they needed. I have experience with energetic puppies who need structure, older pets who need extra patience and meds, and yes — I speak fluent cat. Whether your cat is shy, sassy, or secretly runs the house (don’t they all?), I know how to read their vibe and keep them comfortable.
About: Thanks for checking out my sitter profile! I've been watching pets across the DC area for nearly 8 years, which includes experience as a walker and housesitter. I'm a dependable animal lover who will make sure your pet is happy and comfortable even while their people are away. I live with my partner in a very dog-friendly house in Landover Hills. While I manage the Rover account, my partner Lou--who is a caring pet parent with animal experience that includes a stint at wolf sanctuary-- also will keep your pet(s) company. We have two pups: the elderly Walden, a pug who sleeps 90% of the day, and Drax, an active mutt who enjoys playing with friends new and old in our yard but also cuddling up for evening snuggles. We have two cats who are friendly with dogs but have access to a dog-free office if any issues arise (so far we've only had adorable introductions as dogs' first cat friends--many nose boops). The house is in a suburban area and has a fenced in, maintained yard where your pup can happily spend their days playing with Drax, rolling in the grass, and sniffing around. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask! I work from home most days of the week; Lou works entirely from home. We often have guest animals in the house, so are used to a daily routine of breakfast and backyards romps after wake-up, multiple breaks throughout business hours, and plenty of play time and dinner in the evenings. We’re happy to incorporate your pet’s usual routine into ours to keep them comfy. I’m attentive to dogs in my care and take pride in ensuring they are comfortable while their owners are away. While with us, your pet will be treated like our own and get plenty of attention, exercise, and care.

About: **IMPORTANT ** Summer schedule active now. This means more couch snuggles and max TLC! Hello there! I’ve been a sitter for the past 6 years. I’ve mostly worked with small-médium sized dogs. I know with busy schedules a little more help is a big help! I’m here to support you and your furry loved one during these moments. Heading out of town for the weekend? I can help😊. My home is smoke free and safe for your furry friend. If they are more comfortable at home I can come to you also. **IMPORTANT - If you were a previous client of mine and need to book please text me even if you do not see any availability. ** My pet sitting rover schedule will be part time. I am available usually during the weekday evenings and some weekends for extended stays, or walks as needed. I do not work from home and will only be able to give potty breaks 6-8 hrs. I have an open space grass community area for walking and a smoke free home. I do not have any additional pets in my home. If I’m working from your home I will respect and adhere to your rules for your home.
“Kuma looked like he had the best time with Irma! I definitely appreciate her taking care of him on short notice for a day trip I had planned. She sent updates of Kuma throughout the day. I would definitely recommend and revisit!”
About: I’ve had dogs of different breads since I was a little girl. I used to feed and walk my neighbor’s dog around the community while also taking care of mine :) I’m currently a stay at home mom so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your dog indoors and also be able to take them out occasionally on walks. I live in an apartment so I unfortunately don’t have a yard at the moment. I do have a balcony that’s safe for a small dog to be in.
“I brought my little senior to Denisha and I could not have been happier with the care she took with him. She has true caring for animals and she cared for my dog as well as she cared for her own dogs. They went on walks and when she noticed he was lagging, she picked up his ten pound self and carried him the rest of the way. She cues into behaviors to figure out dynamics and issues. She was just great. I loved that she took him on walks because no place I have taken him has ever put that effort into him. Please consider Denisha as a caretaker for your dog. I will definitely be going back to her.”
About: I can do anything from walking to giving baths or from filling food and water to providing medicine 🐾 I’m okay with dogs of all ages and sizes from puppies to pitbulls and from the sick to the elderly 🙂 I can work remotely so it fits in quite easily. I live in Greenbelt, MD and my office is in DC (when I do decide to go into work), so really anywhere in the suburbs I’m willing to drive to! Any special instructions will be listened to and I will take great care of your pet(s). Hopefully things work out and you can be a regular-ish client! Please note: i board 3-4 dogs at a time. If you have a larger breed dog and I’m boarding multiple dogs, I might require them to where a bark collar that just buzzes if they get aggressive. Depending on their behavior. It helps with mitigation. I have never had any accidents happen under my watch and would like to keep it that way.
About: Hello! I've had dogs all my life and worked as part of a rescue group for part of that time. I love dogs and have a lot of experience taking care of them. I can take them for walks, give them lots of attention and if they take any medication, I have experience with that as well. I'm good with any size dog since I've had a lot of different ones from Cocker Spaniels to Irish Wolfhounds. I don't have any "official" recommendations but I have pet sitted for friends of my family a time or two. I'm also good with multiple dogs, having grown up around 6-12 in my house at any given time, along with multiple cats. I would love to be able to pet sit for you! I currently work from home, so I am able to be flexible when it comes to taking care of your furry family members, rain or shine! I can do doggy daycare in my house if your furry friend gets along with mine, but also more than happy to take care of your pets in your home, whether taking them out for a walk, feeding them, or letting them out into the yard.

About: Hello World! My name is Rouday and I have been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old. In those 25 years I have had the privilege of raising three dogs, all different shapes and sizes. I enjoy taking dogs on long walks, playing with them at dog parks, and loving up on my furry friends. I currently have an extremely flexible schedule as I work remotely and control my own workflow.

“Rita was absolutely amazing with my dog, Natalie! Natalie can be reactive and typically needs time to adjust to new environments and people, but Rita went above and beyond to make sure she felt comfortable and supported. She took the time to really understand Natalie’s needs, triggers, and what makes her happy, which made such a difference. I really appreciated the regular photo updates and how communicative she was throughout—checking in, asking thoughtful questions, and keeping me reassured the entire time. It’s clear Rita genuinely cares and puts in the extra effort, and because of that, Natalie had a great experience. I’m so grateful and would absolutely book with her again. Thank you, Rita!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience caring for senior dogs, including my own 13-year-old companion, Angel. She’s a wonderful example of how older pets can still be energetic and joyful with the right care and attention. I understand the unique needs of senior animals, such as gentle exercise, medication management, and extra patience. Additionally, I’m skilled at adapting activities to suit each pet’s age and personality, whether it’s training puppies or providing comfort to older pets. My compassionate approach ensures every pet feels safe, loved, and engaged, no matter their stage of life. I work part time so i’m just down to do this whenever I am free .

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets throughout my lifetime, starting at the age of 7. I’ve had fish, turtles, cats, dogs, and bearded dragons. So my passion for animals across the board runs pretty deep. Though currently I’m unable to have a personal pet of my own, that has no effect on my ability to take care and love on the pets you cherish. I have 2 dephews (dog nephews) that I love very much, as if they’re were my dogs and that’s the closest I’m able to get to a personal pet at this time. Nonetheless, my passion for animals has drawn me to the idea of becoming a dog & cat walker/sitter and I think I will find a lot of joy and fulfillment in this. I’m currently unemployed and have a very flexible schedule. Whether your pet needs daily or weekly attention, I’m definitely the girl you need for the job! I will care for your pets in accordance to how I would want my pet to be treated. With respect, and love. I’m very attentive and will be sure to take care of your pet to your specific wants & needs.

I have owned mixed breads, boxers, and right now I have a massive that is an amazing girl. I am looking forward to caring for your pet. I have a lot of free time right now and can walk or check in your 4 legged family member anytime you need. I can check in on your other pets as well if you need to and water your plants if needed. I can care for your pets at home, take them for walk, feed them, provide medications, play and train them if needed it. Happy to work with you and your pets needs. I’ve cared for senior dogs, puppies and all ages in between. Animals in general tend to like me and I am comfortable with with all of them, birds included.
“Breonia was EXCELLENT. My two, very hyper, babies loved her. She was friendly, punctual, and even brought her family and furbaby on the walk so they would have some company. I would definitely hire her again.”
About: Hello! I've had dogs all my life and worked as part of a rescue group for part of that time. I love dogs and have a lot of experience taking care of them. I can take them for walks, give them lots of attention and if they take any medication, I have experience with that as well. I'm good with any size dog since I've had a lot of different ones from Cocker Spaniels to Irish Wolfhounds. I don't have any "official" recommendations but I have pet sitted for friends of my family a time or two. I'm also good with multiple dogs, having grown up around 6-12 in my house at any given time, along with multiple cats. I would love to be able to pet sit for you! I currently work from home, so I am able to be flexible when it comes to taking care of your furry family members, rain or shine! I can do doggy daycare in my house if your furry friend gets along with mine, but also more than happy to take care of your pets in your home, whether taking them out for a walk, feeding them, or letting them out into the yard.
About: I believe that every child should grow up with the unconditional love of a pet. We rescued our first to grow up with our adult daughter and our newest addition has grown up with my teenage daughter. Their dogs have ultimately become my dogs because I secretly enjoy their company ☺️ Like Many, Working from home had become the normal and now that many of you are returning to in person work schedules I've decided to care for fur babies that have grown accustomed to the warmth and undivided attention of their companions. I'm free most weekdays. And after drop offs my Koby 🐶 and I go on walks in the neighborhood. And we venture the school's neighborhood at pickup. So in between your pet can be as lazy or as active as he, she or they wants. I have a large fenced back yard for playing and a huge front and back porch for lounging. Our home provides open space and cozy spaces for relaxing.

“Payton is awesome and she truly cares for my dogs. She takes really good care of them and gives me plenty of updates (pictures, video, and messages) while they're in her care. She is the only one in this area that I trust to watch my dogs!”
“Christian was so great with Itty! She sent me pictures everyday of them out on walks and Itty curled up in the house. I would definitely recommend booking with her!”
“Amazing! My dog and I are joined at the hip and I don’t love leaving her just anywhere! Rouday was so kind and my dog took good care of him right away. His flexibility and graciousness with me almost stood out more than his professionalism and care with my dog. Highly recommend!!!”
“So happy to book with Mark again. He and Antoinette take such great care of my baby, and they are so communicative. And the pictures are always fantastic! Spud had a great time as always, and we look forward to our next stay!”
“I greatly recommend Tasha. Not only is she a dog lover; she has years of experience as a vet tech. I recall being told at her clinic to "ask Tasha," when it came to a medical question and a vet wasn't nearby. I can read my dogs, and they were fine. She kept me regularly updated with photos. I wouldn't hesitate for a moment to use her service again.”
“This was Balee's first boarding stay with Mady. She and her family were Ah-Mazing! I felt bad leaving because of an ear infection that he was diagnosed with a day before our departure. Balee received lots of TLC during his visit and Mady kept me updated about his adjustment daily (which was comforting).”
“Kiki was amazing with my corgi pup, Mushu! She's a true professional and kept me updated every day with adorable photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind during Mushu's first extended boarding stay. It was clear that Mushu was happy, well cared for, and having a great time. Mushu and I can't wait to book with Kiki again!”
“Bria was great! Extremely responsive when I booked. Very knowledgeable about caring for my daughter’s Yorkie! I didn’t have to provide much instructions, she just knew what our fur baby needed! She loved on our dog the entire time he was with her!! 5 out of 5! Highly recommend!”
“Elsa had a great stay with Cal and Kelly. They kept me informed- sent lots of pics and videos. I think she hated to leave! I would and will definitely use them again.”
“Asha took great care of our pup Pepper. She sent us updates and pictures before we asked for them and was super easy to communicate. Asha gave lots of love to Pepper while we were away and Pepper came back home happy and clean. Would highly recommend!”
“Mckinley watched my kitten Cashew over the July 4 long weekend, and she was awesome! A week before Cashew’s boarding stay started, she proposed a phone call to learn all about his care and any concerns I had. She sent consistent updates with photos/videos of Cashew throughout his stay, and he clearly had a blast playing with her cat!”
“Malvi and Andrej were so wonderful to Kala! I’m so happy to have found someone I can trust and feel completely at ease to take care of my pup when I’m busy or out of town. They sent lots of updates and made sure to keep me in the loop with pics & texts. I could tell Kala was having such a blast with them by how happy she looked. 10/10 would recommend!”
“We used Jeramy as a last minute sitter when our original plans fell through, and we were so happy with the experience! 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 :)”
“Adiyah took great care of Thor while I was away. She kept me updated throughout his stay, sent pictures, and let me know how he was settling in, which I really appreciated. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was doing well. I’d definitely book with her again!”
“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!”
About: I am a true Capitol Hill dog lover and I have always had a strong passion for animals, mostly for dogs. I have been caring for dogs since I was child, taking care of my mother’s beloved shitzu. Taking care of her helped me acquire basic canine behavior and taught me the responsibility of taking care of a pet. Most recently I raised my own best friend, Gelato an English Bulldog. I gained my breeder experience with Gelato and cared for her and her 6 puppies, until they were rehomed at 8 months. I enjoy taking long walks, which I consider the ultimate stress reliever and best way to exercise. I have no problem getting my hands dirty. I have 20 years of experience in the customer service field and enjoy striving to provide the best experience to my clients. In my personal time I am spending time with my 2 little girls teaching them how to play sports, and of course how to be loving pet owners. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page! I’m currently working part time and will be available to walk most pets during early mornings hours during the week and mid day and evenings during the weekend. I definitely would like to know your pets temperament, and what might scare them. I know they will feel most comfortable at home but if they are with me, I’d like to keep a calm, pet friendly setting for them to be comfortable in.
“Haydenn is literally an angel on this earth. He has such a way with all of the dogs, I feel so confident leaving my pup with him. I know shes probably happier with him, than at home with me😂 He gives great pupdates and sends pics, always flexible with dates and times, and even helped us out in a pinch.”
“Amani treated my pup just like family. When I picked her up she did not want to leave! Lol she loved being happy and safe and playing outside with her friends. Aunty Amani was communicative, flexible, and sent us pics and videos of our pup while still allowing us to enjoy parent time haha! We’ve found our forever Rover for sure!”
