“I highly recommend Angie and her dog-loving family! Our dog has never come home from a week at "camp" happier (or more exhausted). They treated Flynn like one of the family from the moment he arrived. He absolutely loved playing with the kids and the other dogs, and he was very intrigued by the chickens. Flynn got plenty of exercise in their spacious yard, played lots and lots of ball, got plenty of pats and love, and even slept on the bed with the kids. Angie sent plenty of pictures and updates reassuring us that our anxious pup was settling in well. We will be return customers for sure!”
“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!”
“So this is the first time I used Rover and I couldn’t be more happy Erica and Franklin were the best! They made me feel very comfortable by having a visit before my vacation so that I was able to meet them and see their home and that helped to know it was a perfect fit. They were in constant communication answering text anytime and sending pictures that will of the good times they were having with my pit. I give them credit because some people here that I have a pitbull and get totally turned off and feel some kind of way, but they were completely open to him and invited him in like one of the family. If I could recommend anyone it would definitely be Erica and Franklin . Taking comfort in them having my dog, which is essentially like my child enabled me to enjoy my vacation and I can’t thank them enough. I fully recommend them 100%.”
“Rebeka took wonderful care of Izzy once again! We really appreciate the thoughtful updates, questions, and photos throughout her stay; they gave us great peace of mind. It was clear that Izzy had an absolute blast playing with Rebeka, her family, and another pup. Izzy came home happy, well cared for, and tired from all the fun. We highly recommend Rebeka and will definitely book with her again!”
“Marlin was just so great ! Initially I was so worried as this is our first time staying apart .Marlin updated me every now and then, I would highly recommend her to anyone and I would be definitely be using her again .”
“My shepherd husky mix Riker had such a great time and was well taken care of. He was so happy (and tired) after his boarding. Would use their services again!!”
“Absolutely wonderful sitters! Great communication with us. They sent me photos of Theo during the week I was away and Theo returned home happy! They treated him like family! Thank you Bob and Pam!”
“Natalia is awesome.. she send me updates throughout the day with pictures. I think my poodle enjoyed his time with Natalia more than me during my vacation. I will definitely use her services again.”
“Mrs. Nettie was awesome! Why was she so awesome?! During our meet and greet Mrs. Nettie was so thorough and very knowledgeable about dogs. I learned a lot of valuable training tips in the first 5 minutes! She explained in detail, how she cared for the dogs in her care and the interaction between her fur babies. I got continuous updates about my pup Kali and she looked soo happy ? and I loved that for her and myself because I was able to enjoy my trip!”
“this was our first time using rover for Sebastian and we are so pleased! Diana and Felipe were really attentive, we had daily updates and overall felt like they took amazing care of Sebastian, will definitely be using their services in the future!”
“Cal & Kelly were so great with Mabel. I was impressed by how they managed the dynamics between the fellow boarding dogs and loved getting pics and videos every day. It was so nice to be able to enjoy our family vacation without worrying about our dog as it was very clear she was well cared for and happy. Thank you, Cal and Kelly!”
About: I’ve always taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I begged my mom to get me a dog around that time as well. I promised her I would take care of the dog and do all I needed to do. With that being said I became a pet owner and trained my dog all by myself . From the simple commands, and crate training. I love to treat my current dog(Chloe) like a baby. From cuddles, long walks, nice tasty treats and all the love I can possibly give her. Sometimes I do travel and when I do its hard to find someone to keep Chloe. I realized I can’t be the only one who has experienced this . I am new to the app. I am ready to spread the love in my area. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. Can’t wait to meet you ! I do work full tine Monday-Friday. I have a Hybrid schedule. I work from home Tuesdays and Fridays . I am open on weekends ! I have a spacious apartment. We also have dog parks in my complex. Lastly my favorite a few different trails/ lakes that I love to walk currently.
“I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Edward and Natalia. We had a meet and greet a week prior where they asked a lot of questions and observed Ralphie with their sweet pup, Liz Lemon. I always worry leaving Ralphie with a new Rover. He has been described as “extra” and needs a lot of attention/human presence. Within an hour of dropping him off, I got a note that he is settling in fine with a picture of him cozied up with the family and this eased my mind immensely. They were very responsive when I reached out and had everything ready to go when I picked him up. The biggest testament, however, is Ralphie’s behavior on the drive home. If let’s me know if he didn’t like his stay somewhere, but leaving Natalia and Edward he was calm and well behaved. They deserve this 5-star review and j would recommend them to my friends and family without hesitation.”
“We were so fortunate to have Sharon watch over our dog, Beanie for a third time! Beanie stayed with Sharon for over a week while we traveled overseas. Sharon provided us with a peace of mind with how loving she has always been towards her, following her care instructions and also with how communicative she was whenever we reached out. It is evident that Sharon has had a lot of experience with dogs and she will take care of your baby as she does her own, four dogs! Sharon, thank you for watching over our baby. We were able to fully enjoy our trip knowing she was with you!”
“This is the second time we’ve booked a dog boarding with her - and we are very happy with it! Goose is taken care of and in a happy state when we pick her up. Its worrisome leaving my fur baby with anyone, and the consistent updates on my girl always help”
“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.🥰🥰”
“Jessica was an absolute gem when it came to caring for my dog over the weekend. From the very beginning, she made both me and my pup feel completely at ease. We had the chance to meet her beforehand, and her warmth and attentiveness immediately reassured me that my dog would be in great hands. What truly set Jessica apart were the frequent updates and numerous pictures she sent throughout the weekend. It felt like I was right there with my pup, which gave me so much peace of mind. In fact, after meeting her, I was so confident in her care that I canceled my original booking—even at the cost of a cancellation fee—and I have absolutely no regrets! Jessica is an exceptional dog mom, and I’ll continue booking with her whenever I need a sitter. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, look no further! Highly recommend!”

“Elizabeth took such good care of our two kitties while we were away, including administering medication. She came twice a day and sent us great updates and photos. Very dependable and trustworthy, highly recommend her services.”
“Denise is magical. We have a cat who is very reactive to strangers and dislikes changes in routine. We weren’t sure we’d be able to go on a family vacation and leave her at home in someone else’s care. But our difficult cat warmed up to Denise immediately, and they did fine the entire time we were gone. We loved the daily photos, assuring us that all was well. Would hire Denise again in an instant.”

“Erin was great with our three cats. They don’t always show themselves to visitors, but were out and about to see Erin in all their visits. They were all in great shape and happy to see us on our return. That is not always the case with them.”
“Connie did an outstanding job looking after our cat Gemini. She made an advance visit to our home to meet Gemini before we left, followed all care instructions to the letter, and provided frequent detailed photo updates throughout her stay. She is certainly our top choice for any of our future pet care needs and we will be recommending her very highly to friends!”

Flexible scheduling (advance notice appreciated) but can arrange last minute pet care if available. Complimentary bath for dogs staying 7+ days. 🏡 My Home & Experience I currently live with two rescue dogs I adopted while living in Africa, along with Swiss — my daughter's energetic, one‑eyed rescue cat who visits regularly. They’ve taught me patience, intuition, and how to understand different personalities and needs. My experience comes from decades of hands‑on care rather than formal training. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, comfort level, and quirks so they feel completely at home. ❤️ Why Pets Love Staying With Me I treat every animal like my own — with attention, affection, and respect. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or laid‑back, I’ll make sure they feel safe, understood, and loved. I’d be honored to care for your furry family member.

About: I’m a recent college graduate with 10 years of pet care experience and a genuine love for animals of all kinds, including dogs, cats, rabbits, and reptiles. I have the most experience caring for large breed dogs such as Pit Bulls, Rottweilers, and Labradoodle mixes, and I’m confident handling strong, high-energy pets.

I make time for exercise, play, and affection so pets can burn energy, stay happy, and feel secure while in my care.

Whether your dog loves to play, lounge in the yard, go for walks, or simply relax indoors, I’ll do my best to make their stay feel like a home away from home. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine, not an afterthought. I’m home for most of the day, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, structured playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention.

“She was great with my dog! I really appreciated her inviting me to do a meet and greet before the daycare. It gave her an opportunity to meet my dog and for him to meet her. She has a dog friendly and secure backyard which put me at ease. She also seemed very knowledgeable about dogs and even worked with him after I mentioned his separation anxiety. My dog was happy when I picked him up. She even had him ready in his raincoat. I would definitely recommend her.”
“They are awesome! My pup feels so at home with them. She is excited when she arrives and still excited when she leaves. She's with other pups when she is there and it has done wonders for her socialization, as well as helping her sleep through the night. Jody and Rodney are the best. I feel happy knowing my puppy is happy, safe and in a loving environment while my husband and I are at work.”
“Kristy and her husband were wonderful with Maya. She was very easy to communicate with and coordinate with. She provided frequent updates and pictures. I would certainly recommend Kristy and will definitely be asking her to watch Maya again.”
“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!!!”
About: What Sets Me Apart I offer more than just a standard check-in or walk—I bring a lifetime of genuine animal love combined with specialized, hands-on experience to ensure your pets are safe, happy, and completely understood. Here is what makes my care unique: Senior & Special Needs Expertise: I have a deep understanding of senior pet care. Whether it’s managing medication schedules, recognizing subtle signs of discomfort, or just providing the extra patience and gentle pacing that older pets deserve, your senior companions are in incredibly safe hands. Puppy Training & Energy Management: Navigating the puppy phase requires consistent structure. I love working with young dogs to reinforce basic training, maintain potty routines, and channel all that amazing puppy energy into positive, healthy habits. Multi-Pet & Diverse Species Experience: My home is a sanctuary for all kinds of animals. From handling high-energy dogs and independent cats to caring for unique exotic pets like geckos, I understand the distinct body language and routine requirements of a truly diverse range of species. When your pets are with me, they aren't just being watched—they are being treated with the same deep respect, attentiveness, and family-level care that I give to my own. Pet care isn't just a side task for me—it’s seamlessly woven into the fabric of my daily and weekly structure. Because my routine centers around a flexible, home-based schedule, I am able to provide the consistent, attentive, and highly reliable care that pets thrive on. Here is how I integrate dedicated pet care into my routine: A Natural Part of My Day: Managing a busy, active household means I am already completely dialed into strict daily routines. Feeding schedules, fresh water refills, and multiple potty breaks are second nature to me and easily sync with your pet's specific internal clock. Built-in Movement and Fresh Air: I value keeping active and getting outside. Daily walks and high-energy playtime aren't chores—they are highlights of my schedule that allow me to give your dog the exercise, mental stimulation, and neighborhood exploration they need. Meticulous Environmental Care: Just as I maintain high standards for my own surroundings, keeping a spotless pet environment is part of my regular weekly rhythm. Daily litter box scooping, deep-cleaning food bowls, and organizing pet areas are deeply embedded in my normal cleaning habits. Evenings and Weekends for Quality Time: When the daytime rush winds down, my evenings and weekends are dedicated to winding down, too. This is when I love providing the quiet companionship, gentle grooming, and couch cuddles that keep pets feeling safe, loved, and part of the family while you're away. Because my life is set up to balance multiple priorities smoothly, your pet receives structured, dependable care without me ever having to rush their routine. Care in My Home (Boarding & Daycare) When pets stay with me, they aren't kept in isolation—they become part of a structured, lively, and highly attentive household. Seamless Integration: I run my daily business from home, which means your pet enjoys constant human presence and supervision. They are integrated right into our daily rhythm of work, play, and relaxation. A Sanctuary for All Personalities: My home is designed to accommodate different comfort levels. If your dog loves a pack environment, they will have plenty of company. If they prefer a quiet corner to decompress, I have dedicated, cozy spaces where they can rest undisturbed. A Safe, Social Environment: With experienced resident pets of my own, I am highly skilled at managing animal dynamics. Introductions are always handled slowly and safely, ensuring everyone feels secure and respected in the space. Care in Your Home (House Sitting & Drop-Ins) If your pet prefers the comfort of their own walls, my priority is maintaining absolute consistency, security, and cleanliness while you are away. Flawless Routine Replication: I follow your specific instructions to the letter. Whether it’s feeding at an exact timestamp, following a precise walking route, or administering medication, I ensure your pet's internal clock and habits aren't disrupted. Respecting Your Space: I treat your home with the utmost respect. In addition to keeping your pets happy, I ensure their environment stays pristine—handling meticulous litter box maintenance, keeping feeding areas spotless, and making sure everything looks exactly how you left it. Security and Peace of Mind: You will receive regular updates, photos, and quick communication so you never have to wonder how things are going. I also keep a vigilant eye on the security of your home, ensuring doors are locked, mail is brought in if requested, and the property is secure.

“Katherine came to my home to do a meet and greet with my 8 month old puppy Kooper a shih tzu that went very well. While on there walk she sent photos along the walk Kooper really enjoyed her. I will definitely book Katherine again.”
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.
About: Dogs have been in our lives since childhood, and as pup parents ourselves, we understand how hard it can be to find a trusting person to leave your pup with in your times of need. As previous owners of an energetic dog [Cesar], and a foster dog [Argo], we are prepared for the active lifestyle required to care for some dogs. Similarly, we have experience with more relaxed dogs that just enjoy being pet and pampered. We currently serve as pet sitters for our friends who need dog sitting from time to time. I am open to communicating with you as much or as little as you'd like while your pet is with us. Don't worry, I'm that Dog Mom that Facetime's her pup so there's no shame! Currently working from home two days a week, I’d love to have a furry co-worker join me! My work is primarily centered around hosting meetings, and I’m probably the only person on camera without a pet! I have an open home with easy access to the backyard or front of the house for potty breaks. I can crate your dog if requested or let them roam around my baby-proofed home! There are gates and locks EVERYWHERE!
“Ashley is amazing with my rambunctious Frenchie, Jax. Not only did she walk him as I requested, she took the time to give me helpful tips on curbing his not so pleasant behaviors. I absolutely, and very highly, recommend Ashley and can’t wait to work with her again!!!”
“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.”
About: I have always grown up with dogs and cats. Animal fur was always a “fashion choice” of mine. Right now, I have a 125 lbs pitbull mix named charlie, he has big paws and an even bigger heart. I also have a stubby, long nosed coonhound named Billie, she is jumpy, rowdy, and loves to cuddle. I have lots of experience with big dogs, I grew up with a Rottweiler and a German Shepherd mix. I love my animals so much, and I know firsthand how having a pet sitter/walker can be nerve-racking. I want to provide you with that trust and much needed knowledge that your dogs are being taken care of. Although I do not have as much professional experience as I would want to, I can provide that same love and care and personal experience that you may not be able to get from someone who doesn’t have big dogs like I do. I am young, strong, and able to respond to any messages sent my way. I’m also always taking pictures to send to any of my clients. Keeping you up-to-date is so important as it assures you that things are going smoothly and that your pet is having a fun, restful, relaxing time. Because your pet deserves a vacation too, of course. Hello! My name is Madeline (pronounced like caroline) I am currently a high school senior, who is going to my freshman year at college in late August. I am looking forward to going to college for acting and getting my bachelors of fine arts in the drama department at Carnegie Mellon University. My weekends are pretty open. Besides the small vacations throughout the summer. I am pretty available most weeks. I am in front of house manager at the Olney theater center. I am usually working nighttime (5-11) shows, so I am available during the day. I have had the amazing opportunity of working with dogs in the last show I was in. I did “legally blonde the musical”. We had two amazing actor pups in the show and that was such a great experience for me. I have grown up with animals my entire life. I have two dogs right now and in previous years I had up to four cats all at once. I have such a huge passion for taking care of animals and being around them. I am very interested in volunteering at animal shelters and will continue to in the future. My favorite type of exercise is to just walk outside. If you have a pup who needs frequent walks I am your person! Walking is my favorite. I have so many favorite places to go on walks. I will usually listen to podcasts, music, or study any of my lines for a show that I’m in. I am incredibly tech savvy and will respond to any message or call within a minute or two. I think it’s incredibly important to keep you updated and “in the know” with what is going on while I’m taking care of your beloved pets. At my home I love to take long walks with my two dogs. I am fairly comfortable walking larger dogs, or dogs who like to be on the move. Based off of what you would like me to do, I will follow your instructions to the T.
“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!”
“Tristen is amazing! He was punctual, followed all directions carefully, and kept me updated throughout the entire walk. I really appreciated how communicative and reliable he was. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my doggos were in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
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.
“Ashley walked our dog twice while we went on an overnight trip. She gave our dog medications at mealtime and sent a summary and pictures after each walk. It’s clear she loves animals and would be a great choice to take care of yours.”

“I highly recommend Angie and her dog-loving family! Our dog has never come home from a week at "camp" happier (or more exhausted). They treated Flynn like one of the family from the moment he arrived. He absolutely loved playing with the kids and the other dogs, and he was very intrigued by the chickens. Flynn got plenty of exercise in their spacious yard, played lots and lots of ball, got plenty of pats and love, and even slept on the bed with the kids. Angie sent plenty of pictures and updates reassuring us that our anxious pup was settling in well. We will be return customers for sure!”
“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!”
“My shepherd husky mix Riker had such a great time and was well taken care of. He was so happy (and tired) after his boarding. Would use their services again!!”
“Absolutely wonderful sitters! Great communication with us. They sent me photos of Theo during the week I was away and Theo returned home happy! They treated him like family! Thank you Bob and Pam!”
“Mrs. Nettie was awesome! Why was she so awesome?! During our meet and greet Mrs. Nettie was so thorough and very knowledgeable about dogs. I learned a lot of valuable training tips in the first 5 minutes! She explained in detail, how she cared for the dogs in her care and the interaction between her fur babies. I got continuous updates about my pup Kali and she looked soo happy ? and I loved that for her and myself because I was able to enjoy my trip!”
“Cal & Kelly were so great with Mabel. I was impressed by how they managed the dynamics between the fellow boarding dogs and loved getting pics and videos every day. It was so nice to be able to enjoy our family vacation without worrying about our dog as it was very clear she was well cared for and happy. Thank you, Cal and Kelly!”
“I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Edward and Natalia. We had a meet and greet a week prior where they asked a lot of questions and observed Ralphie with their sweet pup, Liz Lemon. I always worry leaving Ralphie with a new Rover. He has been described as “extra” and needs a lot of attention/human presence. Within an hour of dropping him off, I got a note that he is settling in fine with a picture of him cozied up with the family and this eased my mind immensely. They were very responsive when I reached out and had everything ready to go when I picked him up. The biggest testament, however, is Ralphie’s behavior on the drive home. If let’s me know if he didn’t like his stay somewhere, but leaving Natalia and Edward he was calm and well behaved. They deserve this 5-star review and j would recommend them to my friends and family without hesitation.”
“This is the second time we’ve booked a dog boarding with her - and we are very happy with it! Goose is taken care of and in a happy state when we pick her up. Its worrisome leaving my fur baby with anyone, and the consistent updates on my girl always help”
“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.🥰🥰”
“Maria and Fernando were very sweet and communicative! My dog can be a little rough given her size so I get a little nervous when I ask others to watch her, but Maria and Fernando were patient and understanding with her. I also appreciate the daily updates and photos they sent over 😊”
“Jorge was an excellent sitter for Riley! He was attentive and asked really great questions to make sure her stay was as smooth as possible. He was responsive and sent photos with daily updates. I will certainly book with him in the future, he’s a genuine dog lover!”
“Hsin-Bai and Chi-Hung took amazing care of our pup Charles! They were super responsive, sent lots of photos, and took such great care of him. When they went to take him out at night they even put a little flashlight on his harness.”
“It’s Nigel’s third stay with Masha & family. Knowing Nigel is under their care gives me total peace of mind. Masha & fam is definitely my first choice for Nigel’s home away from home.”
“My dogs love going to Victor’s house! I can see the happiness on their faces in the pics that he sends. Victor is highly professional and responsive. We don’t have to think twice about their safety or comfort.”
“Kiki was great with my dog. He is a little shy at first but he looked so happy and comfortable. She was responsive and sent daily pictures. Will def be using her frequently!”
“Tiffany took great care of Marvin and was very responsive. She shared photos without having to ask. We would definitely leave Marvin in her care again!”
“My pup lived them. They kept me updated regarding when my dog ate, and walked. Would highly recommend. Only con is their location but its still easy to get to. Otherwise amazing service!”
