“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.”
“Kerstyn was wonderful throughout the entire boarding process. She was so professional and responded to all of my texts promptly. My pup unfortunately was feeling a bit unwell during her stay, but Kerstyn was a pro at both managing my dog’s needs and putting me at ease. I would absolutely recommend booking with Kerstyn!”
“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”
“With a senior dog, we do get nervous about leaving mango new places. I would say within five minutes of the meet and greet it was clear that Shanilka and her husband would be taking great care of him. They asked all the right questions and during our stay sent regular updates to make sure we knew he was in good hands. Would definitely use again!”
“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.”
“Andy was great with my dog! He always sent me photos and pickup/drop off was easy. When I picked my dog up, he didn’t want to leave! It was nice to know that he was in good hands while I was gone.”
“Laura was fantastic! Our German Shepherd received exceptional care from her. We appreciated the frequent updates that reassured us our pet was doing wonderfully. It's clear Laura genuinely cares. 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!”
“Aashna and Sidanth took excellent care of our dog. Communication was fantastic – they sent updates and photos twice a day. We felt very comfortable leaving him with them and would definitely rebook.”
“Harley was so happy to go back to Jennifer and her wonderful family for a long weekend. He gets showered with love by Jennifer, her sweet daughter Ramsey, and Grandmom Anne! I’m so happy he gets a happy easy-going doggy friend in Khali, and experience with Pursey the cat. It’s so nice knowing that he is so beautifully cared for. Jennifer was extra kind this time, giving him medicine and more walks since he couldn’t run around her spacious front yard due to a healing injury. We love getting updates and adorable pictures throughout his time there. I’m not sure Harley really wanted to leave!”
“Our dog, James, was in great hands with Evan! Very kind and communicative from first message through the visit. James had a great time and came home happy! Looking forward to booking again.”
“We had a positive experience with our sitter, Byamba. Though we had a tricky situation with one of our dogs initially (Mulan), Byamba truly went above and beyond to help us find a better arrangement for her. It wasn’t easy, but he handled it with patience and care. For the remainder of the stay, he took wonderful care of our other dog, Juke. We really appreciate his efforts, his updates, and his great photos! We’d be happy to book with Byamba again in the future for Juke. Overall, we’re very satisfied and grateful for his dedication!”
“Helena is so kind and responsive. She watched Charlie for 8 days and sent us pics/videos of Charlie’s daily walks and of Charlie having fun with her little dog.We also truly appreciated that she only took care of one dog at a time, so Charlie’s bed came back clean and didn’t have other pet hair. I would absolutely entrust Helena with Charlie again for a long term stay.”
“I'm a happy returning client. Wendy thoroughly enjoys her stay with Sonia and John. John provides a lot of updates and photos, and I can relax knowing that she's having a great time.”
“We had a great experience with Youyou! She took wonderful care of my dog and kept us updated with messages and photos throughout his stay. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. My dog seemed happy and comfortable, and we truly appreciate all the love and attention she gave him. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to other pet parents🩵”
“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.”
“Mckinley watched my kitten Cashew over the July 4 long weekend, and she was awesome! A week before Cashew’s boarding stay started, she proposed a phone call to learn all about his care and any concerns I had. She sent consistent updates with photos/videos of Cashew throughout his stay, and he clearly had a blast playing with her cat!”
“Mike is an excellent choice to care for your dog. He’s friendly, knowledgeable, and makes sure pups get plenty of walks and attention. He’s also a great option if your dog enjoys companionship—he sometimes hosts a few dogs at a time, which creates a fun, social environment. Another big plus: he’s located near a wooded area that’s perfect for safe, enriching adventures and outdoor exploration. I’d absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable, caring dog sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Our second stay with Leah. Everything was perfect from the drop off, individualized pet care, pick up and easy communication throughout the entire process. My normally nervous dog felt at home with Leah. Highly recommend! Thank you, Leah!”

“Sai stayed in our home and cat-sat our attention-addicted cat for 12 days. During this time, he gave our girl a lot of love, made sure she had all her needs met, and was responsive to any messages we sent him. Sai is trustworthy and professional. We would absolutely ask him to cat-sit for us again!”
“So grateful to Paris, who was so thoughtful as a cat sitter! Our return flight was delayed by a day, and we were fortunate that Paris was happy to accommodate this issue with an extra day of feeding/watering. If you’re looking for a dependable and kind pet sitter, look no further!”
“Julia and Spencer are great with our cats! They spend plenty of time playing with our high energy kittens. They take awesome pics and give us thorough updates! Thanks again!”

“Sarah was wonderful with the cats. They got along with her really well and she was very thorough in giving us updates and photos. I will definitely be asking her to cat sit again in the future!”
“Kaitlyn was great with my cat Alpha for a couple drop-in when I was out of town for the weekend. He's very social and she gave him lots of attention so that he wasn't as lonely while I was out. I also got detailed updates from her visits.”
“Anne has been taking care of my cats for years. She's reliable and a great communicator. I always know my fur-babies are in great hands with her.”
“Reona was a fantastic sitter for our two cats. She was thorough, always on time, extremely easy to work with, and very loving with our cats. She provided wonderful and detailed updates on how the cats were doing, including great photos of them playing at every visit. I was very impressed and highly recommend her!”
“Amber is amazing. She took exceptional care of our three maine coon cats, including our elderly cat who required medication. They received lots of love and attention while we were away and her pictures and visit reports were wonderful. I highly recommend Amber.”
About: I first gained experience caring for cats while I was an au pair from 2016–2018. I helped my host family care for their cat by feeding, playing, cleaning the litter box, and giving insulin injections when needed. Since joining Rover, I’ve cared for cats in multiple households, with many repeat visits ranging from single drop-ins to over 10 visits for the same family. I provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, administer medication or insulin if needed, and make sure each cat receives plenty of attention, playtime, and loving care while their owners are away.
“Michael was so patient with my shy and reactive kitty. He tried multiple methods to engage with her and knew when to give her space. He followed my instructions very closely and I was very comfortable trusting him with my pet.”
“Lexy and Robert are fantastic sitters! Over the holidays we ran into so many issues with my apartment lock and through it all they worked with concierge, maintenance and went above and beyond when I was out the country to make sure they could access my baby and care for her. I cannot recommend them higher.”

“Guy helped us out when we needed a Doggie Day Care while we were visiting Arlington National Cemetery for an interment. We didn't know how long the 3 ceremonies would take, and he told us that he would help us for whatever we needed. With all that was going on for us, he offered comfort in taking care of our beloved Toby.”
“My dog had a great time at daycare! Fengyuan provided regular updates throughout the day and I felt comfortable leaving Flynn in his care. Pick up and drop off was quick. Flynn came home happy and most importantly tired after a fun day. Would definitely book again!”
“Penny had a great time at Crystals house. I loved all the pictures throughout the day to see how penny was doing. Crystal was super responsive as well on all communication. Would highly recommend”

“Loreen was really patient with Milo, who is a bit skittish around strangers. She took the time to get him acquainted with her house, yards and kids. She and the kids genuinely love Milo and she sent great pictures of his stay at her house. I’ll definitely use her again!”
“We used Byamba's dog sitting services for our English Bull Terrier this weekend. Our dog, Blanca, had a wonderful time at his house while we were out to brunch with our friends. He took such great care of her in the few hours we left her with him. They went on a walk and played in the backyard! Even though she was only there for a few hours, we received multiple photos. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Blanca for us today, Byamba!!!”

There are plenty of trails around the Arlington area that are pet friendly. I am happy to play with your pet and give them lots of love!
About: I’m a pre-vet student who just graduated from UVA and has grown up with two large dogs! I’ve also recently owned a hamster from a college lab! I have a lot of experience dog and cat sitting for friends and family including puppies, kittens, and senior dogs and cats. I also have about 100 hours of dog walking experience from a shelter so I am comfortable with reactive/fearful/energetic dogs, and another 100 from shadowing at a vet practice. I am currently looking for a vet assistant job so my schedule is open 7 days a week! I am used to all day pet sitting. I always make sure that I understand the instructions that I’m given and maintain clear communication with the owner if I have any questions. I never make any assumptions and always make sure that the owner is comfortable with any decisions that need to be made.
“Anne was great dealing with our dog who gets anxious around new people. With a bit of patience and treats, Anne calmed Archie’s nerves without us around and was able to take him for a walk. Very appreciative of Anne taking the time to work with our dog!”

“Aida is kind, caring person who has a natural rapport with dogs. She promptly showed up at each appointed walk time and was great at interacting with our dog. She made the whole experience very pleasant and enjoyable. We will certainly hire her again.”
“Amber was very accommodating and understanding! She did a great job caring for my new puppy and sent pictures and gave great updates! Would definitely recommend her to anyone!!”
“Suphaphattra responded to us very quickly to walk our 55-lb lab mix on short-notice and did everything we hoped she would do! We would very happily use her services again - thank you Evie!”
“Selina is absolutely amazing with my dog! She is incredibly talented, patient, and skilled, and it’s obvious that she genuinely cares about the dogs in her care. She is very professional, communicative, and dependable. My dog loves spending time with her, and I always feel completely comfortable knowing he is in such good hands. I highly recommend Selina to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and exceptional to care for their dog!”
“Joon was great with Luna, who is a very sweet but timid dog especially since this was her first time being walked by someone else without my presence. Joon was calm, confident, and caring and I will 100% use him again.”
“I was impressed with Daniel right from the start! He is a very humble, respectful, responsible, kind young man who loves animals. My dog Sophie immediately took to him and she would have great walks with him. I asked a lot from Daniel when I went on holiday…and he delivered! He came to my home for 10 days to not only walk my dog but also feed her…give her medicine, and as a bonus, he played with her. Socializing w Sophie went a long way because she was alone most of the time. He would always be on time and, when another dog walker canceled, he quickly covered that shift. No questions or higher charge. He sent a lot of photos too. Since I’ve been back from my holiday, I’ve been in poor health. I texted Daniel and he is now my dog walker on days when I’m unable to take Sophie out myself. Again, punctual & always thinking about what’s best for my dog…. For example, He remembers to dry Sophie’s paws when they arrive from a walk in the snow or rain. I highly recommend Daniel as your dog walker or sitter.”
“Amanda is incredibly responsible, thoughtful, and such a dog person. Rosie was in love with her at first sight. Lucky to have her as part of my "dog team."”
“Sophie has been excellent and our dog absolutely loves her! She is kind and considerate and we know our dog is in good hands when Sophie comes over. Would totally recommend her as a dog walker to anyone!”
“Juan has been super reliable, friendly, and good with managing our dog. He is very responsive to texts and goes out of his way to update us on how things go on his walks with our dog!”
“Graham is great with our dog, Hazel! He takes excellent care of her and is very sensitive to her heart condition. He is professional and always lets me know his estimated time of arrival. Hazel looks very happy on her walks, which Graham adjusts when it is too hot out.”
“Katelyn took good care of my pup while I was at work. She was mindful of the heat and took time to place him in the shade or play inside when he got too hot. He seemed very happy upon my return. I’ll be kindly request for Katelyn to help with Soonie walks in the future!”
About: I own a dog of 10 years, so I have plenty of experience taking care of a happy and healthy pet. I deeply understand what keeps a dog in great spirits. I feel an emphasis on play and experiences with a pet can elevate the relationship between owner and pet. I'm very flexible, all I need is a day's notice. I can work just about any hour of the day. If anything were to change suddenly, my client would be the first to know. My dog lives in my home and has a nice fenced yard to run around in. He goes on daily walks and gets plenty of exercise and play. He is also fed twice a day. I would bring the same energy for my client's dogs.
About: Growing up I always owned animals as I love all kinds of animals from big to small. It was always my dream to own a dog or a cat and ever since getting my very first dog in middle school, I learned a lot about what it takes to give love and handle an animal with care and attention. I would love to take care of your animal just as if it were my own as I own a cat myself and am fostering cats when I can. I am also an active volunteer for the rescue organization here in nova called 4paws. I believe that all animals deserve the best. I have several years of experience taking care of animals/pets and will follow any specific needs that your pet requires. I will promise to go above and beyond for your pet to make sure that you and your pet are more than happy! I currently take care of my cat at home. I work from home as well so I have plenty of time to drop in for visits or walks. I enjoy volunteering at the shelter when I have time and doing Rover requests as I get them. I provide a lot of toys and cat trees at home for my own cat and will make sure your pet is provided all of their needs.

“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.”
“Kerstyn was wonderful throughout the entire boarding process. She was so professional and responded to all of my texts promptly. My pup unfortunately was feeling a bit unwell during her stay, but Kerstyn was a pro at both managing my dog’s needs and putting me at ease. I would absolutely recommend booking with Kerstyn!”
“With a senior dog, we do get nervous about leaving mango new places. I would say within five minutes of the meet and greet it was clear that Shanilka and her husband would be taking great care of him. They asked all the right questions and during our stay sent regular updates to make sure we knew he was in good hands. Would definitely use again!”
“Laura was fantastic! Our German Shepherd received exceptional care from her. We appreciated the frequent updates that reassured us our pet was doing wonderfully. It's clear Laura genuinely cares. 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!”
“Aashna and Sidanth took excellent care of our dog. Communication was fantastic – they sent updates and photos twice a day. We felt very comfortable leaving him with them and would definitely rebook.”
“Harley was so happy to go back to Jennifer and her wonderful family for a long weekend. He gets showered with love by Jennifer, her sweet daughter Ramsey, and Grandmom Anne! I’m so happy he gets a happy easy-going doggy friend in Khali, and experience with Pursey the cat. It’s so nice knowing that he is so beautifully cared for. Jennifer was extra kind this time, giving him medicine and more walks since he couldn’t run around her spacious front yard due to a healing injury. We love getting updates and adorable pictures throughout his time there. I’m not sure Harley really wanted to leave!”
“Our dog, James, was in great hands with Evan! Very kind and communicative from first message through the visit. James had a great time and came home happy! Looking forward to booking again.”
“We had a positive experience with our sitter, Byamba. Though we had a tricky situation with one of our dogs initially (Mulan), Byamba truly went above and beyond to help us find a better arrangement for her. It wasn’t easy, but he handled it with patience and care. For the remainder of the stay, he took wonderful care of our other dog, Juke. We really appreciate his efforts, his updates, and his great photos! We’d be happy to book with Byamba again in the future for Juke. Overall, we’re very satisfied and grateful for his dedication!”
“Helena is so kind and responsive. She watched Charlie for 8 days and sent us pics/videos of Charlie’s daily walks and of Charlie having fun with her little dog.We also truly appreciated that she only took care of one dog at a time, so Charlie’s bed came back clean and didn’t have other pet hair. I would absolutely entrust Helena with Charlie again for a long term stay.”
“I'm a happy returning client. Wendy thoroughly enjoys her stay with Sonia and John. John provides a lot of updates and photos, and I can relax knowing that she's having a great time.”
“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.”
“Mckinley watched my kitten Cashew over the July 4 long weekend, and she was awesome! A week before Cashew’s boarding stay started, she proposed a phone call to learn all about his care and any concerns I had. She sent consistent updates with photos/videos of Cashew throughout his stay, and he clearly had a blast playing with her cat!”
“Mike is an excellent choice to care for your dog. He’s friendly, knowledgeable, and makes sure pups get plenty of walks and attention. He’s also a great option if your dog enjoys companionship—he sometimes hosts a few dogs at a time, which creates a fun, social environment. Another big plus: he’s located near a wooded area that’s perfect for safe, enriching adventures and outdoor exploration. I’d absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable, caring dog sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Jason and Becky were absolutely amazing with Teddie! From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. They sent so many pictures and regular updates throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind and let us see how much fun he was having. Teddie had the best time going to the dog park, playing with their two wonderful dogs, and getting lots of love and attention. It was clear they treated him like one of their own, and he came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We are so grateful for the incredible care they gave him and wouldn't hesitate to book with them again. We highly recommend Jason and Becky to anyone looking for caring, reliable sitters. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of our boy! 🐾”
“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.”
“I can't begin to express gratitude and appreciation for Mirella. She accommodated me when she didn't have to. She is ao kind hearted and genuinely cares about my lil boy. She gave updates throughout the day and made sure that he was taken care of. I am a repeat customer! She is the best!”
“Nia had such a good time with Alexis and Andy and their boys. When I dropped her off I was immediately comforted by their introduction. Their fenced in back yard was exactly what Nia needed! They sent pictures and updates to let me know how Nia’s stay was going. I will definitely be using them again if I need someone in the future!”
“Christian was amazing! Accepted my sitting request with pretty short notice after I found out my roommate wouldn’t be able to watch my dog. She also gladly watched my dog for an extra night than was originally planned when my flight got delayed. She sent me frequent updates and pictures of my dog, and it was obvious he was happy and well taken care of. Would definitely recommend her services and book with her again!”
“Alyce - truly loves dogs and it was clear throughout Blues stay! He had the best time playing in the backyard with Mookie and Alyce went above and beyond to make Blue feel at home and keep him entertained. She even gave him new plush toys and rawhides throughout his stay. Derek and I were updated frequently with Lots of adorable updates with pics and videos of Blue enjoying his time at what we came to call “the rover equivalent to Dog Disneyland” 10 star stay and we will definitely be booking Blue a visit with Alyce and Mookie again!”
