We were mentally prepared to end our vacation but Maurice and Kelly handled the issue smoothly. We really appreciate them and our beloved Biggie missed them a bunch.”

I also valued how she took her time introducing her dogs to Chloe to see how their temperaments would be with one another. It also made me comfortable that there was a small group of dogs in the home during her stay. I would definitely rebook with Donna to care for Chloe!”
About: My love of dogs began when my mom got a puppy when I was in sixth grade. Now I am a dog mom. I've been the proud mom of a Boston Terrier/Frenchie mix for the past 4 years. I've raised her since she was 3 months old, through potty training, puppy training and intermediate training. I'd love to care for your fur baby too. I'm at home during the day and available to drop in/ walk your fur baby. I am available in the mornings and in the afternoon. I have an unfenced end unit townhouse. There is grass on the side of my house and plenty of unfenced grass in my townhome community. I work from home almost every day of the week so I will have time to take care of your baby during the weekday. I'm able to get out and walk dogs on the weekends. I have an unfenced yard and a fenced play area in front of my house. I have a friendly fur baby who likes to play and thinks she's the leader of the pack.
“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!”
“Things with Diego went flawlessly. Our dog was welcomed like family and he came back happy, well fed, better behaved and muscular from all his play. Diego is kind, patient and knowledgeable about what good pet care is. Communication was easy from the meet and greet to daily updates including videos and photos of our smiling pup. He made sure to ask questions about any special care needed, an emergency contact and vet records to be prepared for our dogs week long stay. The home is a great space both inside and out for dogs. Our young dog loves company and Coco was an excellent dog host. Diego and Coco will definitely be our 1st call when we need pet care in the future.”
“Mady was great. Thank you for letting me drop Honey off early in the morning, and staying up close to midnight so that I could pick her up. You listened well to Honey’s needs, and I can tell she enjoyed herself in your big backyard. Would definitely use again.”

He was extremely observant and attentive when explaining their daily routine. You can always tell how well cared for your fur babies are while they are there and when they return. He mad sure to send daily updates and some AMAZING pics of our dogs. We can’t event get them to smile that much lol will definitely use his services again for sure!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lindsay was absolutely amazing with my dog, Duke! From the very beginning, she was professional, responsive, and attentive to all of my questions, which immediately gave me peace of mind. Throughout Duke’s stay, she kept me updated daily with pictures and videos, and I could clearly see how happy and well cared for he was. That level of communication meant so much and truly set her apart. It’s not easy leaving your fur baby with someone, but Lindsay made the entire experience smooth and stress free. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dogsitter. Thank you for taking such great care of Duke! 🐾”
“Danielle was an excellent sitter for my dog Memphis. She communicated with me daily about his stay and sent me pictures.

About: I’ve always had dogs in my life! I adopted my first dog, Beth, in 2015 when she was just 14 weeks old, and I trained her myself. During the pandemic, I adopted my second dog, Buz, at 8 months old who had aggression and resource guarding issues. Because of them both, I am very watchful of dog behaviors and am not afraid of big barks! I know training basics and am comfortable with dogs of all ages and sizes! I am a teacher in SE DC, so during the school year, my availability is primarily evenings and weekends. During the summer, my availability is very open! I am very attentive and respectful of others homes, dogs, and instructions. Knowing that my own dogs take a minute to warm up to someone new, I will be sure to follow specific routines or guidance given! Your home will remain as it was when I enter!

“Mikela was very personable and very communicative when we did our virtual meet and greet. Our kitty is very old and needed some extra care and she was very understanding and helpful about it. We were away with no service except for emergencies/ rare service spots so when we were able to check in she was very fast with responding and giving us updates. We super appreciated her and her attention to detail and how well our little old lady was cared for. We would absolutely book her again. Thank you Mikela!”

About: I have experience caring for both adult cats and kittens. I owned two cats and helped care for my female cat throughout her pregnancy, labor, and recovery while also raising her three kittens from birth until they were rehomed. This gave me hands-on experience with newborn kitten care, monitoring growth and development, feeding, cleaning, socialization, and creating a safe environment for both mother and babies. I understand that every cat has a unique personality and comfort level, whether they’re playful, independent, shy, or affectionate. I provide patient, attentive care and will treat your cat like one of my own while keeping you updated with photos and messages.

About: I bring a lifelong, genuine love for animals paired with hands on experience. From dogs and cats to rodents and reptiles, I’ve cared for them all with patience, attentiveness, and love. Growing up with animals shaped my natural instinct to understand their needs, personalities, and little quirks, and over the years I’ve continued that care by looking after pets for friends and family throughout my teens. Whether it’s keeping a routine, giving extra cuddles, or making sure even the smallest details are just right, I treat every pet like they’re my own. My goal is always to create a safe, happy, and comforting environment so both pets and their owners can feel completely at ease. I’m currently in college and taking online courses so I’m able to be home most of the day if necessary. I’ll be able to take them out and give them plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I will follow any all instructions by the owner and follow their usual schedule to make sure the pet is comfortable at all times. I’ll make sure to keep the owner’s updated and send them pictures so they know they’re pet is well taken care of!

“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.”
“Thank you Jayla for caring for Coco. Perfect with communication! We will definitely see you soon. Coco had fun and she was able to make some friends and enjoy all the love and play time.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, and it ignited my passion to become a veterinarian—something I’m currently diving into with excitement! I adore animals like they’re my new best friends, and working with all sorts of creatures has filled my heart since I was a little girl. Now, getting the opportunity to do what I love feels like a dream come true! I’ve had incredible experiences grooming pets, administering medicine, and ensuring their daily needs are met—each moment is an adventure! I even got certified as a canine attendant, which was an amazing milestone for me! Plus, it’s not just me; my whole family joins in on the fun with pet sitting! If you ever worry about your furry baby when they’re in my care, put those fears aside! We are all passionate about providing love, respect, and the very best care for every furbaby we encounter. We’re dedicated to making tails wag and hearts happy! 😊 I’m currently a college student so having a routine for myself and my fur baby is a must in my books! I love to experience meeting new personalities with animals as I do people. Although I am young (I like to hang out with my friends of course) I still try to insert my pet into my fun through a safe manner. With me, there’s always room for a fur baby to tag along and enjoy themselves as much as they can. My family consists of a lot of kids and puppies so whenever your pet is here they are always on the go. I try to keep your fur baby as active as possible especially if they’re a high energy baby. Just know your baby is gonna be living a dream life in my care!
About: I’ve been a dedicated dog owner for about five years and have raised my dog, Scooby, since he was a puppy. My husband and I worked closely on his training, socialization, manners, and recall and he has grown into a well-behaved dog who is comfortable around other dogs and can safely enjoy off-leash activities in appropriate settings. Because I have used Rover and dog daycare services for years, I understand what pet parents are really looking for: a sitter who communicates, follows instructions, provides updates, keeps dogs active, and treats every pet with patience and care. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic commands, different personalities, and helping dogs settle into a new environment. Scooby is friendly and enjoys being around other dogs, and our home includes two attentive adults who genuinely enjoy caring for animals. I want every owner to feel confident that their dog is safe, comfortable, supervised, and receiving plenty of attention while they are away. I am currently home full-time so your dog will receive plenty of attention, supervision, playtime and care throughout the day. I am flexible and happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime schedule as closely as possible. I live in a townhome with my husband and our friendly, well-trained dog, Scooby. While we do not have a fenced yard, our community has plenty of grassy areas and walking trails nearby. I can provide walks, playtime, exercise, and mental stimulation based on your dog’s individual needs and energy level.
“My dog, Freddie, stayed with Joe for an afternoon while we were out in Beaufort. Joe has a great location, super convenient to downtown and a great backyard for the pups to play in. Joe made things super easy and his dog, Watson, kept Freddie busy and entertained for the afternoon. Would highly recommend Joe and Watson and hope to have Freddie stay again in the future!”

I also have a lead in the backyard to keep the dogs safe and not escape if they would like to roam freely. My coonhound has been just fine with the set up! I also have a crate if preferred. My dog is friendly with others and loves other dogs!
“I couldn't ask for a better person to walk my pup Ollie. This was our first time trying out Rover so we didn't know what to expect and Erick gave us comfort the first day we've met him. 10/10, very patient and communicates quick when we have a question about anything relating to Ollie.”

About: Hello there! My name is Romon, you can also call me Griz. I suppose my friends see me as the momma or papa bear of the group haha. Anyway I've been taking care of my friend's, family's, and of course personal 'furry best friends'. I have a background in personal training and fitness. Never really ran into a dog that didn't like or respect me at least after the first couple treats or games I was able to play with them. Recently lost two friends one moved away the other, Sasha; a poodle mix of 12 years, passed away I was luckily able to spend more time with her during 2020 before she had to go. Her memories are still with me and I know many are back to work and wish they could spend more time with their newest pups. We can work together to make sure they're, well taken care of, and I just wanted to help out and lessen the load of watching over these wonderful epitomes of joy and energy. I've walked, sitted, played with, slept besides, and even cleaned up after all sorts of dogs from puppyhood to very senior dogs, 10lbs to 100+lbs believe it or not, can't seem to get a break from them, which I don't mind! Lastly I hope to get to know your fuzzy yet amazing family members on a professional and even better, personal level. Feel free to message for any questions I pay very close attention to any special instructions. I've recently found great streams of income im able to maintain at home while working on my online degree Fortunately my major for the 3rd semester in a row is online only. My schedule is pretty open and flexible so I wanted to make the most of my situation and again the main thing is to help out new or out of practice pet owners. Im free at all hours of day and night outside of a select few evenings where I train clients to achieve their fitness goals. Mostly online so feel free to reach out and schedule with me if youd like recurring services. We'll make it work. Im a capable and loving pet owner that doesn't mind breaking a sweat. I would love to keep your fur baby busy AND happy whether its a small walk with portable water bowls, at home self made doggy puzzles to keep their minds sharp and busy, even if I am tired, for those longer sessions. I have access and experience to great doggy parks equipped with fencing and great walking areas, and lots of car space for those longer trips or incase of an emergency where I have to safely transfer your fluffy children quickly. I have a lot of experience to share and rely on too much to list here but go ahead and quiz me at Fanaticallymotivated email on google for those of you new or unsure of my services with the Rover service provider. I hope to work with you both and take care of any worries.
About: Hi all! I’ve cared for pets my whole life and love them all dearly. I have history caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, reptiles, and more. I’m also comfortable working with aggressive pets, administering oral meds and providing exercise and play to enrich their time while you’re away. :) I work from home as a pet portrait artist on JBA (feel free to ask about them)! So my schedule is flexible so please feel free to reach out! I can care for your pets in your home as well as take them on walks around your neighborhood. I can provide feedings, walks and lovin’ whenever works for you and your fur family.
About: Hello there! *waves* My name is Ashley. I am an energetic animal enthusiast, with lots of experience in the pet industry. I have managed two pet boarding/daycare facilities, as well as have 9 years of vet tech experience (preventative care and emergency). Because of my skill set, I am able to administer medications (oral and inject-able) and tend to special needs, as well as the basic duties required for pet sitting, should your furry family member need it. Due to my passion for pets, I'm able to provide loving care, when you can't be there. I will treat your pets as if they were my own. Please feel free to contact me if you think I would make a good fit for you and your furkid(s)! (PS - I am feline friendly as well)
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was a kid and I love all animals as if they were my own. I have experience caring for a variety of different pets, whether sick, injured or senior. I always show gratitude and quality care towards all pets and pet lovers in appreciation to their lives and to the homes we provide for our little loved ones. I currently work part time, therefore I have plenty of time to care for your pet and their individual needs. I am typically available during the long weekends, where you will be able to take time away from your pet assured that they will be in a loving, patient and caring environment. I have a big yard and a very nice community with trails that I can take your pet on long and adventurous walks. I give pets all the love and attention they could ask for and I respect and appreciate them as well. The safety and well being of your pet is my utmost priority.
About: I’ve been a dedicated dog owner for about five years and have raised my dog, Scooby, since he was a puppy. My husband and I worked closely on his training, socialization, manners, and recall and he has grown into a well-behaved dog who is comfortable around other dogs and can safely enjoy off-leash activities in appropriate settings. Because I have used Rover and dog daycare services for years, I understand what pet parents are really looking for: a sitter who communicates, follows instructions, provides updates, keeps dogs active, and treats every pet with patience and care. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic commands, different personalities, and helping dogs settle into a new environment. Scooby is friendly and enjoys being around other dogs, and our home includes two attentive adults who genuinely enjoy caring for animals. I want every owner to feel confident that their dog is safe, comfortable, supervised, and receiving plenty of attention while they are away. I am currently home full-time so your dog will receive plenty of attention, supervision, playtime and care throughout the day. I am flexible and happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime schedule as closely as possible. I live in a townhome with my husband and our friendly, well-trained dog, Scooby. While we do not have a fenced yard, our community has plenty of grassy areas and walking trails nearby. I can provide walks, playtime, exercise, and mental stimulation based on your dog’s individual needs and energy level.

“I appreciate the care Donna provided to Chloe! She seemed to be very happy when I picked her up. I also valued how she took her time introducing her dogs to Chloe to see how their temperaments would be with one another. It also made me comfortable that there was a small group of dogs in the home during her stay. I would definitely rebook with Donna to care for Chloe!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lindsay was absolutely amazing with my dog, Duke! From the very beginning, she was professional, responsive, and attentive to all of my questions, which immediately gave me peace of mind. Throughout Duke’s stay, she kept me updated daily with pictures and videos, and I could clearly see how happy and well cared for he was. That level of communication meant so much and truly set her apart. It’s not easy leaving your fur baby with someone, but Lindsay made the entire experience smooth and stress free. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dogsitter. Thank you for taking such great care of Duke! 🐾”

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.
“Ms. Rita took excellent care of my boy Smokey. We first set up a meeting so they could get acquainted. She was very inviting and pleasant. I had no worries that Smokey would enjoy his stay with her (and he did). I love picture updates and she sent me those often. Book her!”
“Helen took great care of our Great Dane Zeus! Highlights of his stay include frequent updates with pictures, very clean fenced backyard and above all her warm & caring personality. We will definitely be using her services again in the future. Thank you Helen!”
“Would 100% recommend Christina she made my baby boy feel comfortable and safe. He had such a great time I could tell from all the pictures and especially when I picked him up. He’s only 7 months old, still potty training, a picky eater and this was my first time leaving him with anyone else so I was EXTREMELY worried but Christina took such great care of him, ensured he was comfy at night time and could sleep well and he didn’t miss a meal which is amazing as sometimes he refuses to eat. Thank you so much Christina!”
“Our first time using Rover, we traveled to the D.C area in our RV and needed someone to watch our fur baby overnight while we toured the area. I contacted Elissa about month prior and she was very responsive. We did a meet & greet the day before the stay and our boy went right up to her and was very relaxed, he can be a bit particular about people. Elissa made us feel at ease. During his stay she sent us pictures and we couldn't of been more please. We sincerely appreciate her and she did a great job with our instructions. If anyone needs their dogs watched do not hesitate to contact her, we highly recommend her services!!”
“Ms. Kimberly is a delight! She took excellent care of my son and he had so much to tell me about when I picked him up lol. She warmly welcomed us in, explained her set up and everything I needed to know to feel comfortable leaving my pup with her. She also carefully followed the instructions we talked about and went above and beyond my expectations in keeping a safe and clean environment for each animal in her care. I would 200% book with Ms. Kimberly again! Thank you for all the pictures and videos, reassurance for me and my anxious pup, and welcoming us with such a warm inviting smile.”
