Donna provided very special care to Cocoa. She is a senior pup, and we are forever grateful that Donna provided updates as soon as anything of note happened. She was super responsive to all messages, and Cocoa was comfortable for the entire stay. We may not have Cocoa for much longer, and we are grateful that Donna was extra attentive to her needs and provided the best care possible. Many, many thanks.

Matthew with family is very accommodating and will entertain your dog for a great price! They went swimming and on long walks. Executed Ozzie’s food plan and supplements no problem. They sleep in the bed with their dogs which my dog liked. I’ll be a return customer if they’ll have us.

Can’t overstate how great Christine was with Ellie. Ellie is often shy with new people, but Christine was patient and clearly made Ellie feel incredibly at home in a shockingly fast period of time. What’s more, when our flight back got cancelled, Christine didn’t even hesitate to accommodate our delay. And Christine was very diligent in giving us updates during the stay.

Laurie and Rich were so kind and caring for our little Frodo. From their photos, he was clearly comfortable in their home and yard. They kept us updated with his adjustment as it was his first time with them. When they expressed concern when he did not eat his dinner, we assured them that he does skip meals. We were lucky to find them available for our mini vacation. Thank you, Laurie and Richard

After 8 years of using Rover and trying many sitters, Laura stands out as the best. Thanks again, Laura, for taking great care of our girl!

She sent consistent updates with photos/videos of Cashew throughout his stay, and he clearly had a blast playing with her cat!

We encountered a couple issues with the key fob dispenser not working properly and with the cats knocking over a large plant. She notified me and resolved both issues quickly which was a huge relief. Nobody wants to be dealing with or stressed out with issues from a distance and during a short time-off. I trust her with my cats and will definitely be booking her again.

She even offered to vacuum while I was away! Will definitely be rebooking her in the future.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs since I was very young, and caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have a pug, so I’m very familiar with daily routines like walking, feeding, bathing, and giving lots of love and attention. Friends, neighbors, and family have always trusted me to look after their pets, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m currently a nursing student on break, and most of my classes during the semester are online. This means I’m home full-time on all non-clinical days and have plenty of time to give your pets my full attention. My schedule is very flexible, so I’m available most days for walks, drop-ins, and boarding. Safety is always my top priority. I grew up with dogs and currently have a sweet pug, so I’m very comfortable handling pets of all sizes and personalities. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, and I always make sure dogs are supervised, fed on schedule, and kept in a safe environment. I’m happy to crate your dog if needed, follow any routines you prefer, and give your pup plenty of love and attention while you’re away.

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 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.

Bergit is always very friendly, respectful, and flexible with scheduling and would sit our puppy everyday of the week. She was also very observant and communicated with us if she had any concerns. 10/10 would recommend her anyday! ?

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.

I have a fenced yard, and when I am out of my house the pet would be safely confined to one room and made as comfortable as possible. I am fully comfortable walking your dog as needed, and having play time!

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.

I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit so you always know how your pet is doing. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I’m happy to adjust to their individual needs and energy level. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make sure your pet has a fun, stress-free experience. As an active-duty U.S. Army Soldier, I take commitment and reliability seriously. My work schedule follows consistent weekly shifts averaging 6-8 hours, so I know my availability well in advance. I’ll be away during my scheduled work hours on weekdays, but I provide attentive care before and after work with walks, meals, playtime, and lots of love. Weekends allow for even more one-on-one time with your pet, and I’ll always communicate my schedule clearly to ensure we’re a great fit. I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust with every pet I care for. I follow all owner instructions carefully, maintain a clean environment, keep pets secure during walks and visits, and provide regular updates with photos so owners feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for.

Ewelina was an excellent sitter for my dog Molly. She was very communicative with pictures, and handled her finicky food attitude! She gave her pills daily and I came home to a happy dog. Thank you, Ewelina!!! Next time I travel I’ll definitely look for Ewelina to care for Molly!

Kelly was a great dogsitter! She was very responsive and sent us pictures regularly, so we could relax and enjoy our vacation. And I think our dog had as good of a vacation as we did! Kelly played lots of fetch with him and made sure he was loved and spoiled.

Joseph was very communicative and shared pictures of our pups with us daily. He followed all directions we gave him and made sure our pups feel at home under his care. I would recommend Joseph as a pet sitter and would entrust him with watching our pups again in the future. Thanks for taking care of our babies!

Kayla and Adam were wonderful hosts for our little Bonnie! This was Bonnie’s first time staying anywhere without us, but Kayla and Adam obviously love dogs and were simply great with her. Kayla sent reports with pictures several times a day, putting our minds at ease. And the fact that our dog, a very nervous and picky eater, was relaxed enough to eat on her first day told us very clearly that she was doing fine and felt at home with Kayla and her family. Thank you Kayla and Adam - we’ll be back!!

Debra is amazing! I appreciate how thorough she was in ensuring that the arrangement was a good fit for all of us but particularly for Nova who spent a wonderful weekend getting all the love and attention from Debra. We look forward to more weekends with Debra.

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.
