Elizabeth is amazing! She treated our pup Ollie like one of her own and made his stay feel like a true vacation. From fun adventures and plenty of playtime to the sweetest snuggles, it's clear she genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. She sent us the cutest photos and videos throughout his stay, which we looked forward to every day. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Ollie had the best time, and we’re so grateful to have found her!

Leila came to my rescue w/ my last minute request for doggy daycare today. She responded quickly and made my Zoe feel so welcome at drop off. Zoe did not want to leave when I picked her up, which is a first. Leila is a dog whisperer! Thank you for your kindness and the adorable photos. Immediately had peace of mind knowing Zoe was in great care w/ a loving sitter. My girl Zoe can be a bit high maintenance but Leila never made me feel like an inconvenience. I highly recommend Leila to care for your fur baby.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Growing up with Labs, German Shepherds, and cats taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding each pet’s unique needs. I have also volunteered with the Animal Welfare League of Arlington for two years, where I have gained additional experience caring for animals and learning about different behaviors and temperaments. In addition to general pet care, I have informal training experience with dogs, including helping reinforce basic commands, positive behaviors, and good routines. I enjoy working with young pets as they learn and helping senior pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. My goal is always to provide the same level of attention, patience, and love that I would want for my own pets. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work remotely four days a week with a flexible schedule. This allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I am able to accommodate a pet’s normal routine, whether that includes letting dogs outside for breaks, taking them on a midday walk, providing playtime, or simply spending time with them while they relax. I enjoy creating a consistent and comfortable environment for pets while their owners are away. I care for pets by prioritizing their comfort, safety, and normal routines. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their established schedule for feeding, walks, medication, playtime, and any other specific instructions. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in familiar environments, so I focus on providing consistent care, attention, and companionship while respecting the owner’s home. For each pet, I take time to understand their personality and needs, whether they are energetic and playful, shy and independent, or require extra patience and care. My goal is to make pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away.

About: With over 20 years of experience caring for multiple cats, I’ve developed a deep understanding of feline behavior, needs, and personalities. I currently share my home with two female cats Daisy and Lucy. I’ve nurtured cats from kittenhood through their senior years, providing loving, attentive care every step of the way. While I’m a lifelong cat owner, I also have a genuine love for dogs and enjoy spending time with them just as much, whether it’s going for walks, playing fetch, or simply giving them the affection they crave. I’m actively working toward a dog training certificate to further strengthen my skills and knowledge. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine, especially since I work from home full-time. This flexibility allows me to give pets consistent attention, regular feedings, playtime, and any needed care throughout the day. Whether it's scheduled walks, medication, or just some extra cuddle time, I'm able to be present and responsive to each pet’s needs. It's truly a joy to incorporate caring for animals into my everyday life. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide pets with a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, feeding schedules, exercise, medication, and playtime, to ensure consistency and reduce stress. In a client’s home, I respect their space and routines, making sure pets feel secure in their familiar environment. In my home, I create a cozy, pet-friendly space with plenty of affection, supervision, and enrichment. My goal is always to keep pets happy, healthy, and cared for just like they’re my own.

About: I had two dogs growing up (Snowball and Mocha) and in recent years, have dog sat for friends, friends, and for Rover clients. It's rewarding and super fun for me! I enjoy the long walks in my neighborhood (I live in an awesome neighborhood for that) and lots of cuddles/belly rubs with the dogs I am sitting! I work from home most of the week and have plenty of time during the day for neighborhood strolls/walks with my rover pups. I love going for walks to take a break so would take the dog out at least 3 or 4 times a day with me. My husband and I live in a 2 bedroom/2 floor condo with a balcony. The dog would have access to the first floor. We have hard wood floors, a ton of really great light and are on the 3rd floor. There are no elevators in this building. We have a ton of neighbors who have dogs, an elementary school near by with a nice track/green space, and lots of side walk space for walks.

About: I have taken care of dogs for over 20 years- I am great with all breeds and have a knack for training puppies (and older dogs too!) I am working from home and live right along a beautiful pet friendly park! I go on walks and runs throughout the day so love taking pups out with me! I ensure dogs are well taken care of and have experience administering different medications to dogs (including allergy injections) and following dietary restrictions or other needs. I show a lot of love and affection to pups and will keep them occupied and hopefully burn some of their energy playing and going on walks/runs!

About: I am a lover of all pets, young and old, big and small. I love spending time with animals and would be happy to look after your dog when needed. I have taken care of dogs of different sizes and breeds since 2015. I am a teacher and am typically available to host your pets on Fridays after 4:00 PM and anytime on weekends. However, since I am currently on summer break, my schedule is very flexible, allowing me to provide care throughout the day and accommodate your pet's needs while you are away. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine. My goal is to provide a positive and stress free experience for both you and your pet. You can trust that I will treat your dog as if they were my own, ensuring their needs are met and they feel loved and cared for at all times.

The family is great about sending pics and letting me know how my dog is doing during the day. I am extremely comfortable with letting Monti stay. I'll continue to be a repeat customer.

About: I’ve had furry family members all my life. Finally got my own and live having a pup to train, pamper and love on. Let me share that experience with you and your pup as well☺️ I work from home, which makes pup care easier. My pup goes on a 30-60min walk or fetch in the fenced s hook fields near me around 7.30-8, eats around 10.30am with a quick walk outside soon after. She naps and is free to play. Last walk and dinner is around 6.30-7.30. Jade sleeps in her crate beside my bed. I’m able to give as much attention to her as needed because my schedule is flexible. I am very tidy and keep hazards away from the pups. I use dog-safe cleaning products. I also have a nest doorbell camera to monitor those coming and going. Plants are out of reach. I have access to fenced parks and fields less than 1min walk where I take Jade regularly. I like to play Chakra Healing Frequencies

This was my first time using Rover and Esther-Elizabeth and her husband Mike far exceeded my expectations. Not only were they kind, personable, and communicative; they took excellent care of our 1 year old Yorkie Hendrix, and seemed to genuinely care about him. I would highly recommend Esther-Elizabeth if you’re considering her to care for your pet. This will certainly not be the last time I reach out when we need care for Hendrix. Thank you for such a seamless, pleasant experience!

About: I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet because they're family. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away, while giving you peace of mind through regular updates and photos. I'm attentive to each pet's unique personality and routine, whether that means long walks, playtime, plenty of cuddles, or simply keeping them company. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering oral medications if needed, and caring for both energetic puppies and senior pets who require a little extra patience and attention. What sets me apart is the level of care I provide. I don't just stop by to check a box, I spend quality time with your pet, making sure they feel happy, exercised, and cared for. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and treating every animal as if they were my own. I work remotely from home full-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide pets with plenty of attention throughout the day. Because I have a lot of flexibility in my workday, I can easily accommodate walks, potty breaks, playtime, feedings, and lots of companionship instead of leaving pets alone for long stretches. I genuinely enjoy having animals around, they make my days better! Whether your pet loves to play, go on adventures, or simply curl up next to someone while they work, they'll have plenty of company and care. My schedule also allows me to be responsive to your pet's individual routine and provide regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident they're happy and well cared for while you're away. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. In my home, pets have a calm, quiet environment with plenty of one-on-one attention since I don't have any pets of my own. I work remotely, so they're never left alone and can enjoy frequent potty breaks, playtime, and lots of companionship throughout the day. I also live just a five-minute walk from a beautiful trail, making it easy to provide regular walks, fresh air, and exercise tailored to your pet's energy level.

About: I have experience taking care of dogs of all different kinds from a young age! I have a strong love and appreciation for all dogs and their unconditional love. I was an elementary school teacher for 8 years so patience, organization and an intense sense of care are my strongest skills. I am currently in the process of finding a new remote job and am home during the week and most weekends! I love to walk and having a buddy to come with me would make my day. My hours and days are pretty flexible ♥️ I live in an apartment with plenty of outside space around the building to take any pups outside to play with. I don’t have any pets at home so your pet will have my full undivided attention 🤍

We are so happy with Albedardo. He is such a kind, conscientious and intelligent young man. We’ve always worried when trusting someone new to look after our furry children, but with Albedardo it was immediately clear that he is organised, professional and thorough. He made sure to learn as much as possible about our pups before walking them which really put us at ease to know that he genuinely cares about our pups’ wellbeing as well as delivering a quality service. I highly recommend contacting Albedardo if you want someone who is organised and transparent, who loves to do his best, and who earns your trust.

Selina has been fantastic with my dog, Milo. He’s a big dog and can be a little tuggy on walks, but she handled him with confidence and always made his safety and comfort her top priority. She went above and beyond by making sure he always had food, water, and treats after his walks, and she sent tons of updates, photos, and videos that gave me so much peace of mind throughout the day. She’s also incredibly flexible and easy to work with, which made everything seamless. You can tell she genuinely loves dogs and treats every one of them like her own. I trust her completely with Milo, and I can’t recommend her enough.

She gave lots of updates and pics, and was attuned to their needs in a way I only thought I could be😅. We will be working with Shereen going forward and she somehow manages to wrangle both dogs on lengthy walks!

About: I have a passion for animals and my community. I have been taking care of animals of all kinds for over ten years now. I am also an active person who can help tire out your animals with a long walk or run. I am flexible with my schedule and will be happy to work with you when things come up. My prices are negotiable and I am happy to discuss details of any sit further! I'm currently working full-time in McLean, but I am only in office 4 days a week, so I am happy to do weekend sits or weekday sits and check in on your pets before and after work if that works for their activity level. I am very active, so I would be happy to walk or run with your pet! I care for every pet as if they were my own. I give them attention and take care of them to the fullest. I take note of any behavior changes and flag them with the pet parent to ensure nothing goes unnoticed.

Their yard was amazing - especially for our 95 lb mutt who just loves to run. And our little old man loved the cozy beds around the house. They sent pics and videos every day and our boys came back happy and healthy. As a bonus, while we have noticed our dogs often come back from Rovers smelling like a kennel, after a weekend with Helena and Nathan they came back smelling great!

Outstanding host! She took excellent care of our English bulldog and provided funny notes and photos throughout his stay. We will absolutely book with Jen again! 5 stars!

We had a great experience with Juliana! Buster came home happy and calm. Great communication and we’re in a great spot for walks and a dog park.

About: I’m an animal lover that will take care of your pet like my own. Although I will care for your pet, I live with my partner, three year old son, my dog Ares, and two cats. We’re a family that loves all animal and are opening our home to extend that care. All pets I’ve cared for tend to leave my home with new skills or new training while they’re with me as that’s very important to me. I am a fully time stay at home parent and have a very flexible schedule to care for your pet. My open availability can accommodate last minute requests. I live in an apartment with an indoor dog park, outdoor dog park onsite, and a large apartment with plenty of space. My pets are very friendly and take into visitors very well. Our son is also very good with animal of all sizes and respectful of boundaries.

Aisha was so amazing in taking care of our high energy doggo for a whole week while we were away for our wedding!! I received updates and photos every day. I was nervous at first because this was our first time using Rover or going away without our doggo, but Aisha made me feel confident and comfortable in her abilities to take care of our boy the very first hour she had him! He had a blast playing at the dog park, got to go on long walks, and made a new doggo friend with her dog. I HIGHLY recommend Aisha to anyone and will definitely be booking her again in the future (if she'll have our silly pup again!) If I could give her 10 stars, I would! She was amazing!

April was an amazing sitter for my senior dog Paige! She was super communicative, understanding, and accommodating, and she and sent me lots of pictures. Paige seemed very happy and comfortable with April😊

Jennifer is AWESOME! I recently moved and have been driving 40 min each way to keep Ginger with her previous boarder because she loves Ginger and Hinger loves her. I can go away and know my baby is being taken care of. I had a last min trip and Jennifer was available and responsive. From the booking to meeting her to the communication and picking her up Jennifer was fantastic. Ginger came home happy, not skittish, hyped up or giving AS MUCH of a guilt trip which means she felt loved and cared for. I am DEFINITELY using Jennifer any time she’s available!
