“Lorrie was absolutely amazing! We were first time Rover users and Lorrie’s attentiveness, consistent updates (with pictures and videos) and overall care and love for our dog made the process so easy to leave her overnight. Our dog Reina had the best time and will definitely work with Lorrie again!!”
“Bob was a great dog sitter for our dog. He was excited when we dropped her off and clearly adores dogs. He sent pictures every day of her with cute doggie quotes. Our dog clearly enjoyed her stay and was comfortable and happy while we were away. I would def recommend bob and we will surely have him dog sit again. 5 stars for sure.”
“Rachel is amazing. She is very accommodating and she really took great care of Chloe for 2 weeks. She's a lifesaver. She got along great with George and Chloe fit right in with them. It gave me a huge piece of mind knowing how well she was cared for. I highly recommend Rachel to watch your loved one. She's great”
“Jamie creates a very calm and comfortable space for our shy and sometimes timid small dog (who gets excellent care, naps, walks, and attention). We're really happy we found her and even more pleased that our dog loves her time with her.”
“Yiqi took care of our dog for two weeks and dog-sat him for a few days. She was so kind to me when I was anxious about leaving him boarded for the first time. She sent me photos of him every day, and he seemed very happy and well taken care of in the pictures. She’s very responsive. She truly loves and cares for your pet babies. I will use her service next time we are going away again. 100% recommended sitter and boarder!”
“Nirvana did an excellent job taking care of our dog Milo. Always texting and sending pictures to assure me he was doing well. She was very patient and understanding of how I felt leaving him for 11 days.”
“We are so grateful for Ekaterina and family's loving care of our senior dog Gil this summer! I didn't know how he was going to manage so many weeks away from home, but Ekaterina is exceptionally reassuring and capable. She handled his medications and temperament with true care and skill. We feel very lucky to have found her. Thank you again!”
“Patricia established an immediate affectionate connection with our Dachshund, Melissa. She was professional, personable, patient and Melissa was cuddly and comfortable with Patricia who took excellent care of her, provided photos, communicated in a timely manner and earned our trust for repeated bookings.”
“Lina was wonderful. She took good care of my two kitties, and she was quick with communication. She sent photos throughout the stay, and made me feel at ease. She also gave medication to my cat Bo twice a day. I would recommend!”
“Doris is amazing! I almost don't want to give a review in case she will get booked up by other people and then Milo won't get to stay with her. Doris is very attentive and always sends pics and Milo comes home happy. I trust that Milo whi started going to Doris as a puppy, is in good hands with her and her daughter.”
“Erica was amazing with my girl Sweet Potato! She was super responsive when I needed a sitter in a pinch, and was communicative throughout her week-long boarding, putting me at ease throughout. I will definitely request Erica to take great care of my kid in the future.”
“This was the first time I was apart from my dog for more than two days and the first day that I left the dog with a non relative. It was great to have someone as responsive and responsible as Vincent taking care of my dog. It is clear that Vincent loves dogs and does a great job taking care of them. When I picked my dog up it was clear he had a good week, was healthy, well fed and very happy.”
“We have rebooked a few times and will continue to! Erica is great with our very energetic golden! She has tons of room to run and play. She sends tons of photos making us feel better about being away from her! Maggie loves going to her home because she knows is going to have a ton of fun.”
“We left our super energetic 10 month old French bulldog Frankie with Ken for 3 days and 2 nights. He took great care of him and sent him home healthy and tired. We would definitely recommend him! He’s very nice and gives good updates. He seems to really loves dogs.”
“I had a wonderful experience with this host! They are super nice, kind, and incredibly sweet. I can't thank them enough for taking such great care of GG. Getting photos of her every single day really put my mind at ease while I was away. It's obvious that GG had a fantastic time during her stay. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring pet sitter.”
“Wonderful experience at Mike's Dog Motel! Mike's lovely home is the perfect setting for any small dog. Clean and nicely kept with everything a dog could want and need. His attention to the dogs is outstanding as I received pictures of my pups almost daily. Mike is quick to respond to messages. He truly loves dogs and will treat yours like his own!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter. Fatima was patient, caring and reliable. We received updates regularly, giving us peace of mind while we were away that our dog was well cared for. Would definitely use her again!”
“Michelle and her family are awesome taking care of our beagle. Communication with her is fast and easy. We recommend her and would board our beagle with her again in the future!”

“Leigh did an excellent job taking care of our two cats. Her communication was prompt and thoughtful and the cats clearly loved her as they both had their full personalities on display in their check in cards!”
“Max was a great sitter for my cat Snow while I was on vacation. Upon meeting with a Meet and Greet, he was attentive to the needs and ensured questions he had were answered. Given my cat needed oral medication, he asked for a demonstration on how to give him the medication to give him in order to ensure he got it delivered correctly. He was punctual for all agreed on times to visit, friendly, and reached out with any questions as needed. I came home to a very happy cat and would not hesitate to rebook with Max again!”
About: Cats have been my whole life… literally! I've been a cat lover since the age of 3, and my own beloved cat has been by my side for 13 years. That's decades of hands-on experience that goes far beyond the basics. I am fully comfortable caring for cats with special needs, including daily brushing, gently wiping eyes, noses, and ears, and keeping litter boxes fresh and clean.

Whether your kitty is shy and slow to warm up, needs extra grooming attention, or requires a careful daily routine, you can rest easy knowing they are in experienced, loving hands. Your cat won't just be looked after, they'll be truly cherished.

My goal is simple: to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving you complete peace of mind. I work from home, so I have the flexibility to provide personalized care, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. Every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and all the little details that make them unique - from their favorite toy, walking route, and feeding schedule to treat preferences, commands, medications, and any fears or anxieties. The more I know, the better I can make their time with me feel like another normal day. I'm dependable, detail-oriented, and will care for your pet as if they were my own. You'll receive regular updates, lots of photos, and open communication every step of the way. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family member!

Whether your dog enjoys leisurely neighborhood walks or more adventurous hikes and trails, I'll tailor our time together to their age, health, and energy level while always respecting your preferences.
“We are so excited that we found Melanie, we were able to leave our Enzo and know he was well taken care of. We received photos and videos to keep us updated which really helped us with our separation anxiety. We hope Enzo and Melanie will become BF! Definitely recommend!”
“I hired Jennifer to do drop ins everyday for my cat for 10 days. I am naturally an anxious person and she was very understanding as I never left my cat for that long before. She fed him his wet food and treats , played with him , cleaned both his liter boxes, and gave him fresh water each day. She followed my instructions to a T regarding which lights to leave on and what doors to keep closed etc . Her personality made me feel very secure having her in my apartment. She is extremely reliable and always communicating promptly and clearly . She sent me photos each day and let me know how he was doing , he was a bit upset at first but then quickly warmed up to her. I would definitely recommend her services for cat drop ins and I hope if I ever need to hire someone again that she is available . It’s hard to find reliable , trustworthy, kind and caring people, but she is definitely all of those things ! Thanks again Jennifer !”

“Chunwei provided the best sitting experience I’ve had so far. She always checks in and updated me throughout all of her stay. She took the time to walk with my puppy Freya and give her the exercise that she needed, she kept up with my feeding schedule and notified me if Freya’s eating habits had changed due to her teething. Overall I couldn’t ask for anything more from a sitter she was amazing!”
“Lorrie was SUCH a help to watch our pup in short notice and was so understanding to adjust her schedule to help us. Reina always has a blast with Lorrie and we cannot wait to bring her back to Lorrie’s real soon!”

“Christina was awesome! It was my first time using a sitter from the rove app and she couldn’t have made the experience any better. I felt completely comfortable leaving my pup there all day! She truly was amazing, she sent photos, videos, and updates throughout the day which made me believe my pup was in great hands and indeed she was. When I got to Christina’s house to pick up my dog she did not want to leave haha, will definitely be back!”

“My beagle doesn't even acknowledge me anymore when we pull up to Mike's because she knows she's usually in for a weekend of taking over his arm chair, window watching and getting a ton of love and attention from him. I have been using Mike for a few years now after couple of frustrating experiences with other sitters. He is absolutely the only one I'd use nowadays as I know how much he loves her and when I go away, I feel 100% comfortable with her in his care. He's communicative, very responsive, sends photos, updates and I feel really lucky to have him nearby! He's even accommodated her late night for me when I had a family emergency. 5/5 stars.”

“Lina provided exceptional care for my baby, Viper. From the moment I dropped him off, I knew he was in good hands. She not only tended to his basic needs but also showered him with love and attention. It was evident that she genuinely cared for his well-being and treated him as if he were her own. Throughout his stay, Lina kept me updated with photos and messages, which eased my mind and allowed me to enjoy my time away knowing Viper was happy and content. Additionally, her knowledge and expertise in handling dogs reassured me that Viper was receiving the best care possible. I highly recommend Lina to anyone in need of a responsible and caring pet sitter.”
“Erica is truly the best! My dog is not often around other dogs so I wasn’t sure how he’d assimilate. She took the time and effort to introduce him to the group and make the transition as easy as possible on him. When he was nervous she kept him by her side to comfort him. She kept in touch with me all day- sending updates and photos to show me how he is doing. I HIGHLY recommend her as she is so loving and caring to the animals. I can tell Buffet feels at home with her and we will be a regular clients of hers! She is the best!!!”

About: I've been an active dogsitter for nearly 15 years in the DC metro area. Specializing in older pets w/ health needs. My family has had dogs my entire life, so I have 4 decades worth of experience with dogs. Since I don't have a dog of my own (despite being my parents' dog preferred human and living with 2 King Charles Spaniels), I will treat yours like family. I'm a huge dog lover! I currently live in a house with 2 King Charles and 1 cat (acts like a dog). We have a fenced in backyard and for smaller dogs, a doggie door. For over a decade, I've been a trusted dogsitter for a handful of dogs in Washington, DC- references available upon request! Additionally, I have fostered three dogs from Laila's Legacy- 2 pitties and 1 Doberman. As a volunteer, I drove dogs to Adoption Events, served as a Handler, and helped bring pups to vet appointments. All dogs are great, especially the ones who like to snuggle. I've recently moved to New Jersey and am currently seeking full time employment. Until then, if your dog is okay with other animals, they can come stay with me or I'd be happy to dogsit in your home.

Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, or simply companionship, I’m happy to do it. My schedule is pretty flexible at the moment. Let me know when you need help with your dog, and I can most likely make it work. I'll take the time to learn their routine and follow any instructions you leave for feeding, walks, playtime, or special needs. I’ll treat your home with respect and keep you updated with pictures and messages so you know your dog is in good hands.

About: I have been helping care for pets since I was a young child. I grew up with pets and pet responsibilities.

Through these experiences, I have become comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic care, providing exercise, reinforcing household routines, and giving dogs the attention and companionship they need. What sets me apart is that I understand how important it is to treat every dog like a member of the family. I am dependable, attentive to each dog’s individual needs, and committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and preferences so they can feel secure and happy in my care. I am also comfortable caring for dogs of different ages and energy levels and can accommodate special instructions from owners to ensure consistency and peace of mind. I am a school psychologist off for the summer. I am available through Labor Day for more full time care, and on week nights and weekends during the school year. I have a fenced in yard that is pet friendly! I have a very active five year old golden doodle, so my home is pet proofed.

“Lorrie was absolutely amazing! We were first time Rover users and Lorrie’s attentiveness, consistent updates (with pictures and videos) and overall care and love for our dog made the process so easy to leave her overnight. Our dog Reina had the best time and will definitely work with Lorrie again!!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Rachel! She took great care of our Amy, sending us photos every day and giving us a full report on how Amy was doing. She took Amy for nice walks and gave her outside time in the back yard. Amy was clearly happy and comfortable, we couldn't have asked for a better boarding situation for our dog.”
“Rachel is amazing. She is very accommodating and she really took great care of Chloe for 2 weeks. She's a lifesaver. She got along great with George and Chloe fit right in with them. It gave me a huge piece of mind knowing how well she was cared for. I highly recommend Rachel to watch your loved one. She's great”
“Yiqi took care of our dog for two weeks and dog-sat him for a few days. She was so kind to me when I was anxious about leaving him boarded for the first time. She sent me photos of him every day, and he seemed very happy and well taken care of in the pictures. She’s very responsive. She truly loves and cares for your pet babies. I will use her service next time we are going away again. 100% recommended sitter and boarder!”

We feel very lucky to have found her. Thank you again!”

It was great to have someone as responsive and responsible as Vincent taking care of my dog. It is clear that Vincent loves dogs and does a great job taking care of them. When I picked my dog up it was clear he had a good week, was healthy, well fed and very happy.”

“Erick was absolutely amazing with my two dogs! I have a fairly lazy dog, and a very high energy lab who just over a year old and she can be a handful! Erick sent me pictures and videos regularly, assuring me that my babies were fine. The resident dogs were super friendly, even snuggling with my two. When I picked them up they seemed like they had made themselves right at home. Erick is fabulous and wonderful people to work with! We will definitely be back.”
