Seeing fun pics of our puppy everyday while we were away was so reassuring that she was in great hands!! Thanks Whitney!!”

“Cynthia made sure my fairly anxious dog, Obi, was well cared for! This is the first time I’ve left him with someone he doesn’t know, so I was worried at first. But Cynthia kept me updated the whole time I was gone and her pictures and quick updates made me feel so much better about being away from Obi!”

“Meagan accepted my booking request to watch my dog very last minute due to a family emergency. She was available and willing to help, and she did a great job with him! She sent me pictures of him while I was gone, and he seemed very happy when we got there to pick him back up! He is totally worn out from all the playing, and he seems to have had a great time. Will definitely be using her again!”

She took such great care of him and sent frequent updates--I loved seeing my pup having so much fun while I was away.

Thank you so much Heather and family for spoiling my little guy this week! ❤️”

“Thank you so much, Svitlana, for taking such great care of my dog! You were incredibly helpful and excellent at communicating, both during the initial meet and greet and throughout the stay.

“Makayla was awesome!! This is my first time using Rover but I will surely use her services again. Updated daily on them and pics of three. She did everything I asked and my cats warmed up to her.”

About: Animals definitely perceive my positive attitude, and people do too. I genuinely love making cats and dogs happy. I often talk to any animal quite a bit because I believe a calm tone of voice is good for them psychologically. Additionally, I have taken care of multiple dogs and cats throughout the years, working in kennel facilities and through ownership, and I understand what is required to keep them happy and healthy. I have a flexible schedule, with much time to ensure your pets get the exercise he or she needs, and the attention they deserve. They won't be lonely while you're away! Additionally, I can administer any medications necessary and follow any special dietary restrictions. Your cats and dogs are in good hands with me! I center taking care of my own animals around my daily schedule. I do my best to keep their regular feeding times ,and for my dogs walking times at expected hours. It can be difficult, but it wouldn't be fair for them to not know what to expect. So ultimately, I adjust my required needs around their schedule in terms of errands, and etcetera. I care for pets in a waythey are accustomed to; meaning regular schedules for feeding, walks and/or medication. If they are staying in my home, I would try to provide the most comfortable accommodations as possible while awaiting their people. But in a client's home, I would just coddle the pet, give them comfort, and again - keep them on the schedule they are accustomed to.
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs and cats most my life I really enjoy meeting other furry friends and making them feel happy and safe Taking care of pets is part of my daily routine, including feeding them, cleaning their space, exercising them, and giving attention to keep them healthy and happy I take care of the pets by being able to feed and walk bathe etc anything that’s needed to be taken care of I’m flexible

“I highly recommend Ronda! She was very responsive and took great care of our cat while we were on a business trip. She is very trustworthy and great at what she does!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all ages and provided medications when needed including pills, eye drops, and shots! I also am flexible to what your pet’s routine already is! I’m home for summers from college (Go Dukes) and I’ve always loved animals, so pet-sitting is my only job over this time! I’m available all days throughout the week! When you’re vacationing in the summer I will look after your pets and give you peace of mind with pictures I take of them and I always leave your house looking like I was never even there!
About: As the daughter of a pet-sitting business owner and veterinary technician, I’ve been caring for animals from an early age. With over 10 years of experience working alongside my mother and in veterinary offices across Northern Virginia, I’ve learned that every pet is unique and deserves individualized care. Before moving back to Northern Virginia in 2023, I also owned a successful pet-sitting business in St. Croix, USVI. My own pets have taught me a lot as well—my pit mix, Bella, survived both a fighting-breed environment and Hurricane Maria, and my two rescue bassets struggled with separation anxiety, as well as our Moluccan cockatoo we raised from a nestling. Those experiences reinforced the importance of patience, empathy, and consistency. I’m a non-smoker, organized, and detail-oriented. I’m also available for last-minute needs and those holiday plans that sometimes run longer than expected. Above all, I take this work seriously and will care for your pet with the same love I give my own. 🐾🖤 Working mainly from home allows me the flexibility to plan my days around feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and cared for. In my home or a client’s, I follow each pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, play, and rest, while giving them plenty of love and attention to keep them comfortable. We can work on learning new tricks and reinforcing obedience training.

“Jocelyn was reliable and communicative. I will definitely seek her services again. This was my first time using Rover and she eased my reservations. I will never rely on a neighbor to take care of my cats again. One of my cats is slow to warm up to people, but by the second day there was photo proof that she was out from under the bed and happily engaged with Jocelyn. My heart was so happy, and it helped me enjoy my vacation worry free.”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care I give every dog. I focus on trust, safety, routine, and affection, treating each pet like family—not just a booking. Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule, as I have two dogs of my own who are in a routine. This will allow me to provide consistent attention, regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship without rushing or distractions throughout the day. I have two friendly pups of my own who will keep your pups comfortable. I will provide a calm, safe, and structured environment. I will follow their routines while providing supervision, affection, and a relaxed environment.

About: I started my journey with dogs 4 years ago and have not looked back enjoying every moment since. I am a certified trainer who loves improving the relationship between human and dog. We have a dog yard plus 5 acres. All dogs stay in our extra bedroom, which is now considered the dog room. I personally have two dogs, a cattle dog and a husky mix. They are both very social with all other dogs. We like to have a good time here but I keep a very safe environment for the dogs, no fighting or picking on one another. NO DOG IS TURNED AWAY. If you think your dog is aggressive, I can and will evaluate them so that if possible, we will get them socializing with their own kind and having a great time. Thanks, have a good day! I train dogs for a living so I stay at my house 7 days a week besides when I work with clients and those lessons tend to run about an hour but no more than 2 hours! I have 9 years experience running my own kennel and have two dogs with a large fence so there will be no boredom here! I do prefer to kennel dogs for the night but as we get comfortable with each other they will start to earn more freedom! Pet care is my full time job and i wouldn’t have it any other way, it has been a blessing. I hope I can help make your schedule less stressful! While you’re away, let your dogs play! I have a five foot fenced in dog yard specifically for dogs. We also have another 5 acres that we will walk all client dogs on during their stay with us.-

My routine is built around their needs—because their comfort and well-being come first. 🐾 In my home, pets enjoy a safe, secure environment with a fully fenced yard and plenty of supervised playtime. My own friendly dogs are always happy to welcome new furry friends, but if your pet prefers one-on-one attention, I can provide a quiet, relaxed space just for them. I tailor the experience to match each pet’s personality and comfort level—whether they love to socialize or just want a calm companion.

I live in an apartment and I'm currently only available to do boarding with one dogs but will consider two if they are bonded pair. before any boarding or housesitting services confirmed, I require we meet in person to ensure all the details are understood and that your dogs are OK with my dog. I have a 30 pound beagle mix named Daisy who is three years old and she will be with me at all times. I am always available for drop in visits and dog walking. prices fluctuate due to various factors but the main ones these days are gas prices and distance of travel. I.e The farther away you are the more likely there is that a added fee will occur before confirmation of service. I provide pet care in services full-time as of November 2021. I am available at any time if you need me. i'm currently available for the following services: housesitting, pet boarding, drop in visit, dog walking for 30 minutes or 60 minutes, and one on one dog training. if your dog is with me, I live in a neighborhood that is very dog friendly. We have two dog parks and I am often at these dog parks at least once a day. However if you have a dog that is not comfortable with that I would not take them there. I would focus on other activities that are more suited to your pet. I also take a lot of pictures and I am constantly in contact with you so you don't have to worry where or what we're doing. I currently work as a therapist with an office in the Madison area, right next to the plow and hearth. My schedule is pretty flexible and it changes weekly as my client needs change. I am almost always around, that makes me a great person for any last minute bookings needed. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my home, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of affection, daily walks, and playtime tailored to your pet’s needs. I keep the space clean, secure, and low-stress, with my own well-behaved dog Daisy as a companion if your pet is comfortable. When staying in your home, I’m respectful of your space and your pet’s routine. I follow all instructions closely, maintain regular updates, and work to ensure your pet feels safe and cared for in their familiar environment. I aim to build trust with both pets and their people every step of the way.
About: I have always had dogs and/cats in my life since a very young age. Dog sat for family members for weeks or months at a time. Assisted with a friend getting a service dog for two weeks. One of the best and most eye opening experiences. I am currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time to play, walk, and interact with your dogs or cats! I also travel a bit for work so I am available to do several different counties and areas. I can easily crate your dog or cat if it is needed. I am great with dogs on a leash and will let them run free if your yard is fenced in. I think it is so important for you animals to get some energy out and have a great time playing outside or inside.

“Nova had another great stay with Dana! I loved that she continued to send lots of pictures and videos. She always ensures that Nova is comfortable and shows her so much love. Nova can’t wait to stay with her again!”

“Scott and Sarah are the best dog sitters! Cassie loves visiting them. They are super attentive, great with communication, and truly it is a home away from home for Cassie. This was our third visit with them and we will keep using them as needed. Do not hesitate to book with them.”

“Whitney is amazing! She was so sweet to our high energy dog, took her on lots of walks, spent lots of time outside with her, and even ran with her! We would use her again without hesitation!! Seeing fun pics of our puppy everyday while we were away was so reassuring that she was in great hands!! Thanks Whitney!!”

“Cynthia made sure my fairly anxious dog, Obi, was well cared for! This is the first time I’ve left him with someone he doesn’t know, so I was worried at first. But Cynthia kept me updated the whole time I was gone and her pictures and quick updates made me feel so much better about being away from Obi!”

“Meagan accepted my booking request to watch my dog very last minute due to a family emergency. She was available and willing to help, and she did a great job with him! She sent me pictures of him while I was gone, and he seemed very happy when we got there to pick him back up! He is totally worn out from all the playing, and he seems to have had a great time. Will definitely be using her again!”

“Our Duke can be a little high maintenance, but Tanine took him in and made him feel comfortable during his stay. Tanine, her kids, and the other dogs were all great to him. He seemed to really enjoy his stay. Thanks!!!”

“Aly was very flexible on drop off and pickup times. She sent a few photos, which was totally appropriate. Would DEFINITELY leave our dog with her again! She is now family.”

“Jennifer was very quick to respond and sent me lots of pictures of my pup 😁 which I really appreciated and made me feel better since it was our first time using her. We will be doing it again. 🫶🏼”

“Nathan was wonderful! Very communicative and accommodating. Our pups had a ball, enjoyed great company and had no problems adjust to a new environment. Thanks to Nathan and his wife for being such a loving home away from home”

“Heather was absolutely wonderful! She and her family hosted my dog on very short notice and were such gracious hosts. She took such great care of him and sent frequent updates--I loved seeing my pup having so much fun while I was away. I would definitely have her take care of my pup any time in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of pet care! Thank you so much Heather and family for spoiling my little guy this week! ❤️”

“Lina and family were amazing, they took awesome care of Bella and I would absolutely book them again to pet sit my dog. She sent a lot of photos and communicated with us.”

“Jessica truly went above and beyond while taking care of our dog Frank! She provided many updates and pictures and we knew he was in great care! She is amazing with dogs and would absolutely use her again!”


“Mike & Pam were wonderful and we felt good leaving our two fur babies with them. We had never used Rover before and this was the first time we had left them with anyone so we were very nervous about the whole thing, plus we were gone for 2 weeks. They put us at ease and every day we received text’s letting us know how they were doing as well as pictures and videos. We were very happy with the care they provided and will use them again.”

“Katelyn was amazing. Very attentive. Reached out to us everyday with pictures and videos. Great communication throughout the whole visit. Our dogs loved her. Very easy to work with. We did an initial visit then she agreed to watch on the spot. April, her dog, is amazing as well. We will definitely go with her again!”


“We have boarded our German Shepherd several times with Charissa. We have complete confidence in her. We rest easy knowing our dog is in good hands and will be taken care of while we are gone. We highly recommend Charissa and would not board our dog with anyone else.”
