“second time boarding our dogs with tasha (this time with our second dog). great to know she can handle our 1 year old and 2 year old pups. thank you, tasha! - nyna + mike”

“Diego was great (and Coco too ☺️)! He encouraged a meet and greet, was very patient and asked questions to understand my dog’s habits and needs. It was the first time leaving her with anyone and went smoothly. Diego also sent regular updates and pictures, so I felt informed of how things were going. Definitely recommend and already booking the next stay!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Thomasena is absolutely amazing, and her daughter Robin is just as wonderful. They took such loving care of our fur baby while we were away, and it truly felt like he was part of their family. When we picked him up, he was so relaxed and happy—it was clear he had been in great hands. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was being cared for with so much affection. Definitely will book Thomasena every time we go away. Highly, highly recommend!”

“Crystal was amazing. I can totally tell my little baby Rio felt comfortable in her presence. I appreciate her love for my baby and how much she communicated! She sent photos and videos daily and informed me of how he was doing. I would absolutely hire Crystal for her services and recommend her to anyone.”

“My dog stayed with Valeria for 3 nights, we had no issues. I felt comfortable with his stay, never felt worried or concerned, and was able to enjoy our weekend away. She took excellant care of him.”

“A+ experience. Pics/updates were plentiful, and it was clear that Sarah and her husband were thoughtful and keenly attentive in their caretaking. Their dog Cooper also made for a great canine companion.”

“Very kind and responsive! They updated us several times throughout the week with how our Ace was doing. They even sent us videos and pictures. Will definitely book again!”

“Tommy was amazing! The communication was great and he sent pictures. Our dogs seemed super happy and comfortable as soon as they arrived to his home. I’d highly recommend booking with him.”

“Payton and Graham were fantastic with our dog, Indy. They have a backyard he loved playing in, but even more impressive they were able to get his halter on (he's extremely headshy) and take him on actual walks. Videos they sent showed Indy snuggling with Payton in a way he has only done with us before. Communication was excellent, and Indy clearly loved being there. Not only would we book again with Payton and Graham, I'm doing so right now!”


“At this point, there is no one else I would trust with my dog Ruth! Holly is incredibly responsive, with videos and updates through Ruth’s stay. She also clearly loves dogs and shows my fairly anxious pup all the love she needs when I’m gone. Ruth got sick while she was staying with Holly and Holly kept me informed, actively tried to make her better (instead of just waiting it out), and comforted both me and my dog through it! She’s the best!!!”

“Whitney is an incredible sitter. She took excellent care of Mia while I was away for 16 days! She sent me lots of photos and videos, and Mia and her dog Stella were instant friends. She also watched Mia during July 4 and administers anxiety medication to keep her comfortable during the holiday. She assured me Mia did well and sent many photos and videos. Mia will definitely be staying here in the future!”

“My pup really loved her time with Kristy & fam. She came back absolutely exhausted. Kristy kept me up to date with plenty of photos and updates. Kristy maintains such a loving home for the pups and I could tell from our first meeting that Kanna was going to be in good hands and laps. Thank you, Kristy!”

“Cynthia was super thoughtful and flexible with our dog. She gives all her temporary pups a ton of attention, so she's perfect for a dog that needs to be around people. She was also very kind when my dog got anxious and chewed on some of her things. I definitely recommend her!”

“Candice watched my 60-pound pitty with no issues on multiple occasion. She's a great for dog-boarding and had great communication. She's always my first option when trying to board my dog Gargamelle! Highly recommended!”


“Fabian was amazing and so flexible with our needs. He went above and beyond and we never once worried about our pets while under his care! Highly recommend”

“Carla took wonderful care of my two cats, one of whom needs medication and is a bit tricky about taking it, while I was away for a weekend. I really appreciated the updates and photos while I was away!”

“Karleigh took our drop in request on short notice and was super responsive and flexible throughout the week. We felt very confident leaving our cat in her care and she went above and beyond to make sure we came back to a clean house and a happy cat.”

“Tandy was amazing! we couldn't have asked for a better first experience with Rover. We had to leave for a week long trip and Tandy made sure we were comfortable with our pets being in the best care! She followed our instructions to the detail and went above and beyond to make our cats comfortable. One of them was scared (he is a scared kitty) and she made sure to take the time to friend him and approach him and learn about him. We are so thankful for her help and will definitely will be rebooking her! Thank you Tandy!”

“Amber was great and responded to a last minute request within minutes. She gave essential meds to my cat who has cancer. Gave me peace of mind knowing she was dropping by for a visit. Will book again. Thank you, Amber!”


“I highly recommend Mickela for your pet sitting needs. She was able to fill a super last min need for drop-ins on my two kitties while I was away for a few days. She responded quickly and was able to meet me at short notice. She was very sweet and the boys took to her immediately. She was great about cleaning up their messes (including a puke surprise left by one of them lol). This was the first time I booked a sitter to do daily drop-ins and I’m so glad I reached out to Mickela. She was such a huge help. 🤗”

“Michael is always a pleasure to book with. He’s very responsive and takes really good care of my three cats. He communicates very well and takes the cutest pictures of my girls. If you want someone who can follow instructions, ask great questions and treat your pets with kindness book with Michael.”

“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!”

“Wonderful experience! This is my first time leaving my fur baby with June and she didnt disappoint. She gave my senior pup, Snapple, plenty of cuddles and attention all day. And I absolutely love the amount of pics and videos June sent during her stay to make me feel comfortable as a dogmom :-). I highly recommend!”

About: I am a pet lover. I grew up in a home with many pets including dogs and cats and have always had a special connection to animals. I love going on long walks and heading to the dog park when the weather is nice. I am here to help you care for your pet the best way possible. I'll always listen to special instructions and will show your pet the love and attention as if they were my own. I have a flexible schedule and am able to do "drop-in visits" and "rover now" walks during most week days when many walkers are unavailable. I am in the office two days a week, Tuesdays and a flex day. I can't wait to meet your fur baby! **I cannot accept pets that get into plants as I have a few not pet safe plants at home** **For house sitting you must be ok with my dog Buddy coming with me and staying at your house as well.** I work from home 3 days a week and am home most weekends! I too Iove middle of the day walks and all day hangs! I am in a pet friendly building that is super close to Rock Creek for longer walks. My home is child free, and smoke free. I do have a senior beagle mix I adopted from a family member who could not bring him with for an overseas move who is a full time pet at the home.
“Thank you for taking care of our baby! Nicole was great - patient with Ethel, who was a little anxious. If we are ever looking for a sitter near DC again, we will absolutely reach out again!”

“Precious and Devin were absolutely great hosts!! They kept me informed and made sure to communicate with me throughout the day! I really appreciate how warm and welcoming they were and the excitement that had in hanging with Bernard for the day! I could tell he enjoyed himself!! Highly recommend booking with them and will continue to do for future stays!”

“Matthew was great watching my pup Willa for a last minute doggy day care! He was kind and welcoming during the meet and greet and during her stay, and sent pictures throughout the day to keep me updated. Willa snuggled right up to them for some naps, which is always a sign she feels comfortable, safe, and happy. Will definitely be reaching out again in the future!”


About: I’ve owned and cared for animals for most of my adult life. I’m the Go-to person whenever anyone I know needs a pet sitter/walker. I’ve personally owned and cared for senior pets with special needs and have a great reputation as a reliable and responsible person. I’m currently unemployed and I have ample time to make your pets happy and feel loved while you are away or working. Most of my friends say that their pets ignore them when I’m around because of all the love and affection I show them. I live in a large apartment and I have many places close by where I can walk your dog and make sure they are safe and sound while getting their daily exercise. Cats have lots of space to chill out or cuddle up with me whenever they want to.
“Criza is amazing! Very attentive and kind, my pup seems to always have a great time with her. She’s really responsive to requests, and always seems to be on time (even when I’m not haha). 12/10 she’s great!”
“Melanie was so wonderful with my foster dog Betty! Melanie was attentive to her needs, really responsive, and able to work with me at short notice. Betty will definitely be coming back to hang until she finds her furever home!”

“Finley had a total blast with Supon. She played, she sunbathed, she hung out at his feet while he worked. We moved to the suburbs recently and Finley isn’t as used to going to dog sitters’ as she was, so she was skittish when she arrived. But very quickly it was clear from photos and videos that she was having the best day ever with new dog friends, Supon, and his expansive outdoor deck. I also appreciated how much Supon kept me updated throughout the day. Finley can’t wait to go back.”

“Thank you so much again for watching my baby 🐶. I will definitely book him again. My baby was very tired, which was a good thing. She got home and ate and went right to sleep.”

“Megan is absolutely wonderful! She takes great care of our dog and always keeps us informed of how the visits go. Its so reassuring knowing that our dog is well cared for!”

“Will be using Luisa again! What a great experience from start to finish with our first walk. Great communication as well and helped ease of first time anxiousness with a dog walker.”


“Juran was a great dog sitter. She is super communicative and takes time to get to know your pet. She even did a brief meet and greet with my dog beforehand which made him more comfortable with her. I look forward to Juran taking care of my dog again soon!”

“Ilia was great. Needed help with Simba’s nightly walk while my spouse was away on business and I had two kids under two. She was prompt on time and took great care of simba!”

“Carla did a wonderful job walking our Shih Tzu, Paige while we were on vacation. Thank-you for taking care of her. Very reliable and communicated via the Rover app.”
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!
“Lilla was fantastic!! Often going above and beyond to make sure our puppy had an amazing experience with her. She was very communicative and took plenty of pictures and/or video to let us know our puppy was doing well. Highly recommend and will definitely book her again whenever we need someone to walk Molly!”


About: I’ve had dogs all my life. Extensive experience with larger dogs but I love them all. I am able to provide some basic training, car, and lots of love. 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.
“Delina was fantastic! Communicative throughout, which I especially appreciated for my pup’s first rover experience, with a photo and thoughtful notes. Will definitely book again!”


About: I’ve grown up caring for both dogs and cats, including multiple rescue animals, so I understand that every pet has a different personality, comfort level, and routine. I currently have two dogs, one is a rescue and two rescue cats, which has given me experience working with anxious pets, building trust, and recognizing behavioral needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I also have experience caring for seniors and individuals with special needs, which has made me very patient, attentive, and detail-oriented. I’m comfortable following specific routines, administering extra care and attention when needed, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Caring for pets is a huge part of my everyday life! Between two dogs and two cats, my pets keep me busy! I’m very accustomed to building my daily schedule around animals. I am currently home for the summer and available at all times of the day to provide attention and care! In caring for pets, I deeply value maintaining their regular routine to the greatest extent possible. Ensuring pets have feelings of familiarity and comfort is super important to me in providing an environment that feels safe and trustworthy for all furbabies!
“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.”
