“Perfect experience!!! Our dog stayed with Ruth (and her amazing family) for 2 weeks while we were out of state. I received lots of daily pics and updates and it was obvious he just became part of the family! I literally couldn’t have asked for someone more perfect to watch my boy! I will definitely be reaching out to Ruth in the future as needed! THANK YOU!!”
“Desirae was very responsive and accommodating. She sent daily messages and pictures of our dog. We appreciate Desirae’s support and excellent service. We’ll definitely book her again.”
“Lauren provided excellent care for Bryce. She regularly sent photos and videos of him throughout his stay with her. Her yard is large and fenced in so plenty of space for your pup to zoom around. High recommend her for your dog sitting needs!”
“Walter and his family were great hosts and caretakers for our dog. They made us feel super comfortable by sending updates and pictures while we were away. We have already asked them to take care of our dog again because of the wonderful care they provided!”
“Major had another great time, seems he even met some new doggie pack friends 😀 love how much space he has to run around, always comes back tired, which is a great thing.”
“I can’t say enough good things about how well Maya was cared for. The night before I dropped her off, I had taken Maya on a hike, and in hindsight, not checking her thoroughly for ticks afterward wasn’t the smartest decision on my part. The morning after her first night with Whitney, she discovered that Maya had a significant number of ticks on her. She immediately texted me to let me know what was going on, especially since she had a two-year-old and other dogs in the house and understandably needed to be careful. I was traveling and tried to arrange for friends to pick Maya up, but unfortunately, I couldn’t make that happen. She could easily have told me I needed to find another solution, but instead, she went completely above and beyond. She went out, got tick shampoo and treatment, gave Maya a thorough bath, dealt with the ticks, and made sure she was comfortable and well cared for. It was a stressful situation that she didn’t create, but she handled it with so much patience, responsibility, and genuine care for Maya. Being away, it meant a lot knowing that someone was willing to step up and take care of her when I couldn’t be there. I’m incredibly grateful and would absolutely trust her with Maya again. Highly recommend Whitney. 🙏🏽”
“Kalley was amazing!! I needed a new sitter as my previous sitter stopped doing in-home boarding, and Kalley was phenomenal. She was very attentive and kept me updated daily on how Marley was doing via text and pictures. I knew he was extremely comfortable in her home which really put me at ease. Thank you Kalley to you and your family for taking such good care of Marley!”
“We felt very comfortable leaving Barkley with Katherine. It was for only one night and two days but he hasn’t been with anyone else for the year we have had him. Pictures and video were sent to us through out his stay and we loved that. We are very pleased with his stay at Katherine’s and will definitely book a future date with her.”
“Exceptional service and great animal lover, Provided daily updates of pictures with the dogs activities throughout the day. Very pleasant experience! Kaiser had a blast!! Thank you, Tara and family!”
“Tamra has kept Scooter on several occasions for us. Once for 2 weeks while I traveled overseas and very recently (under short notice) she took him in for us. Scooter absolutely adores Tamra. That is why I cannot see myself going with anyone else to watch Scooter. Tamra sends pictures and responds to any inquiries about my furry friend very quickly. She’s definitely the best sitter I’ve met. If you’re reading this review, please know that I rarely write reviews for anything. However, I know that there are many pet owners that probably get anxiety when choosing a sitter. Please know that Tamra will give your pet the love and attention it deserves. She’s absolutely amazing! Thank you Tamra.”
“Erin and her family were absolutely amazing! Our dog Millie was so well cared for and genuinely loved during her stay. The communication was excellent throughout—we always felt confident that she was in great hands. We will definitely book with Erin again the next time we travel. Huge thanks to Erin and her family for taking such wonderful care of Millie!”
“Erica was so great, I’m solo pet owner and had plans at the last minute, she was so great with Marvel on first visit and my accommodation for extra day. He is smaller so he takes a few minutes to observe before playing with big dogs, but once he gets started he loves play dates all sizes”
“Jordan was amazing. In her profile she mentions last-minute options & that saved our last minute trip. I'm new to Rover & expected people's availability was accurate but over a dozen people provided bad info. She accepted hours before we dropped our dog with her. She was kind & brought my dog on errands & Starbucks for a pup cup.😂 Her location is super convenient driving from Arlington to 81 on 66. She has a few children that loved playing with Opal. She didn't introduce her dog with ours which is fine. Would definitely reach out again if we go that way.”
“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!”
“This lady is AMAZING! last minute medical situation and with a new puppy. She was so welcoming and so nice. Great communication amazing updates and seriously she could be a pro dog photographer. Just absolutely no. 1 best person on Rover. Anyone in the area needing someone to care for your pups have to give her a shout!”
“Dana is so wonderful with our dog Maya! When we drop off Maya she’s already wagging her tail to see Dana! As pet parents, it just warms our hearts to see the bond Maya has with Dana!!!! Definitely would recommend Dana to anyone looking for a great pet sitter!!!”
“If I could give Leslie 10 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ well I just did!! She is a dream care giver, treated my girl like she was her own. Leslie sent me daily reports (morning and evening!!) along with photos and even a couple videos. Allie had a wonderful vacation (truthfully couldn’t have gone any better) and we both are relaxed and happy. I am soooo thankful I found Leslie, I wouldn’t consider contacting anyone else. She is TOP NOTCH. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️”
“Richard and family took excellent care of our Daisy. It was her first stay with him and he sent us regular updates, photos and video. Was a huge reassurance that she was not only doing okay but playing and having an awesome time with Richard and his family. We will definitely book with him in the future!”
“Highly recommend Leah and Christopher for dog sitting! Finn felt right at home and loved running around their fenced yard. They were very helpful wi the my changing schedule and sent lots of pix of Finn! We will definitely ask to come back!”

“Pamela took great care of our cats while we were at a family reunion, and they can be a challenge. I had our dates confused, and we got home two days earlier than expected, not expecting a refund, but she adjusted the schedule on our return.”

“I highly recommend Darian to take care of your pets! I needed someone reliable, and on very short notice, to take care of my precious skittish cat for three weeks. Darian did a wonderful job tending to all my cat's needs, and she accomplished the amazing by quickly getting my suspicious, standoffish cat to allow her to pet her! Darian also went the extra mile of cleaning up the floor several times when my cat coughed up hairballs and had other tummy issues. Darian had not taken care of my pet before, but she stepped in like a pro and took care of her, and kept tabs on my house as well. As I said at first, I highly recommend Darian for your pet!”
“I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Elyssa. I was nervous because a previous sitter experience, but Elyssa helped my anxiety and took perfect care of my two cats. One of my cats has allergies, asthma, and takes meds and Elyssa handled all without any issues. My boy was hive-free when we returned home after a week. The daily pics of playtime and cuddles were so wonderful to receive.”
“Sherry was amazing! We decided to go on a last minute trip and she met with us the night before we left. She was so nice and a joy to be around so we knew Charlie would love her! This was our first time leaving him but we were reassured by her personality. She did everything we wanted and more. We can't thank her enough and we highly recommend her! We will definitely use her services in the future!”

“Nikita showed his skills as a dog handler from literally the moment he walked in, greeting the shy dog so skillfully that she happily went right up to him to say hi. He was great with rambunctious Duncan and my very energetic young puppy Holly, managing to keep them playing safely together until they were tired enough to give me a few hours of peace before they recharge their energy. I'll definitely book Nikita again!”

“Courtney was the best pet sitter ever! This was my first time booking with her, and she completely exceeded every expectation. From the very beginning, she was incredibly communicative, sending frequent updates, tons of pictures, and even offering FaceTime calls so I could check in on my boys. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. She truly went above and beyond throughout their stay. She was an excellent problem solver whenever something came up and handled everything with such kindness and enthusiasm. My boys absolutely adored her energy, and it was obvious they felt comfortable and loved. She even surprised them with treats, which they are obsessed with! I came home to two very happy cats, and I know they can't wait to see her again. I will definitely be booking with her in the future and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely amazing pet sitter!”
About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals, and I actually worked as an animal groomer when I was younger. I absolutely loved it! That experience gave me the opportunity to work hands-on with dogs and taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and making each animal feel safe and comfortable. I’m a working mom who loves being outdoors and staying active, so getting to spend my time walking and caring for dogs is something I genuinely enjoy. I’m dependable, caring, and attentive, and I love getting to know each pet’s individual personality. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, a midday potty break and some companionship, or occasional house sitting, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while you’re away. I want you to have peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring and capable hands. I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved. 🐾❤️ My availability is flexible and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine! Monday–Thursday, I’m available for walks and drop-in visits after 2 PM. Since I work in Fairfax and live in Marshall, I’m also happy to accommodate visits along my commute when scheduling allows. Friday–Sunday, I have much more flexibility and am available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, and occasional house sitting. I’m happy to work with you to find a time that fits both your schedule and your pet’s needs. 🐾 I care for every pet as if they were my own and understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your furry family member in someone else’s care. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality, routine, comfort level, and individual needs. I have always loved being active with dogs, and my own Border Collie is a huge part of our family. We enjoy going on walks together regularly, so I understand how important exercise, stimulation, and companionship are for happy, healthy dogs. Safety and trust are my top priorities. During walks and drop-ins, I’ll stay attentive to your pet and follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, leash preferences, and anything else that helps them feel comfortable. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is simple: your pet should feel safe, loved, and cared for, and you should feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾❤️

“Jordan was amazing! I plan to book her again if available! I can tell my pup was excited & happy with his doggy daycare visits. Not only did she accept my last minute booking, but she was open and very negotiable with pick uo & drop off times. She frequently sent pics, walked my pup multiple time a day & had no doubts leaving my dog in her care. Would highly encourage anyone to consider booking her for pet services!”

Will definitely request Siska next time I visit the area.”

I believe now, I can provide them the perfect environment of a fenced backyard of 10.000 sqf. I love to exercise and pamper pups and we're easy to reach, even for a last-minute need. With some dog training experience and a lot of love for dogs, I look forward to taking care of your family member like one of our own. Depending on your pup's needs, I will take long playtime or jogs with your dog. If your furry family member just needs companionship and loving attention, I am happy to provide that kind of care, too. Photos of your dog will be shared with you throughout their visit. I love to send lots of pictures of my guests. My house is generally a cage-free environment, but will use your crates if that is what your pup is used to at home. I have a couple of gates to use as necessary to separate dogs during meals and to give them a large, safe play area in our home.
“Granite had the best day ever with Alexsys. 30 min after I dropped him off she sent me a photo of a very happy dog sitting in her lap. Alexsys was so great with communication.

“Haejin & Herscel were wondering caretakers! They were open to taking my dog for daycare a few days before and treated her so well. I liked that they only take a few dogs a day to reduce exposure and ensure they are all being watched. I loved the occasional photo and video updates, which her other daycare doesn't do it all. She came home very tired from playing all day, which was exactly what we wanted. I look forward to using them again!”
“Lisette is WONDERFUL and her family is also so nice. She was very friendly and lovable, super communicative, helpful, and also flexible.

About: I love all dogs, no matter the shape or size. When I was younger, I never had a dog of my own, but all the dogs in my neighborhood were "mine" when I went to visit them. I love letting dogs snuggle up with me when they're all tuckered out. Unfortunately, I am severely allergic to cats, so I only accept dogs. I am currently seeking part-time employment, but I'd like to continue as a pet sitter as a side gig. I love animals of all sizes, and I love taking care of them. A dog’s safety is my number one priority. During meet and greets, I verify how the owner handles letting the dogs out during the day, whether it’s in a fenced yard or on a leash.

About: I grew up on a mini farm surrounded by animals — from lizards and hermit crabs to dogs, cats, horses, and chickens.

I provide a secure space for each pet and use mini fencing to ensure safety, even though my property is not fully fenced. I follow the same level of care and safety as I would in your home.
“Sherry took our menagerie of dogs and cats in stride when she arrived and she handled my dog Duncan with ease during the walk.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all sorts. I grew up with small, medium, and large dogs as well as indoor and outdoor cats. I’ve also grown up caring for animals from a variety of backgrounds- fosters, rescues, you name it.

I’m very good with following whatever directions will make you and your pets feel the most comfortable in your homes and out on walks.

“Perfect experience!!! Our dog stayed with Ruth (and her amazing family) for 2 weeks while we were out of state. I received lots of daily pics and updates and it was obvious he just became part of the family! I literally couldn’t have asked for someone more perfect to watch my boy! I will definitely be reaching out to Ruth in the future as needed! THANK YOU!!”
“Desirae was very responsive and accommodating. She sent daily messages and pictures of our dog. We appreciate Desirae’s support and excellent service. We’ll definitely book her again.”
“Lauren provided excellent care for Bryce. She regularly sent photos and videos of him throughout his stay with her. Her yard is large and fenced in so plenty of space for your pup to zoom around. High recommend her for your dog sitting needs!”
“Major had another great time, seems he even met some new doggie pack friends 😀 love how much space he has to run around, always comes back tired, which is a great thing.”
“I can’t say enough good things about how well Maya was cared for. The night before I dropped her off, I had taken Maya on a hike, and in hindsight, not checking her thoroughly for ticks afterward wasn’t the smartest decision on my part. The morning after her first night with Whitney, she discovered that Maya had a significant number of ticks on her. She immediately texted me to let me know what was going on, especially since she had a two-year-old and other dogs in the house and understandably needed to be careful. I was traveling and tried to arrange for friends to pick Maya up, but unfortunately, I couldn’t make that happen. She could easily have told me I needed to find another solution, but instead, she went completely above and beyond. She went out, got tick shampoo and treatment, gave Maya a thorough bath, dealt with the ticks, and made sure she was comfortable and well cared for. It was a stressful situation that she didn’t create, but she handled it with so much patience, responsibility, and genuine care for Maya. Being away, it meant a lot knowing that someone was willing to step up and take care of her when I couldn’t be there. I’m incredibly grateful and would absolutely trust her with Maya again. Highly recommend Whitney. 🙏🏽”
“We felt very comfortable leaving Barkley with Katherine. It was for only one night and two days but he hasn’t been with anyone else for the year we have had him. Pictures and video were sent to us through out his stay and we loved that. We are very pleased with his stay at Katherine’s and will definitely book a future date with her.”
“Exceptional service and great animal lover, Provided daily updates of pictures with the dogs activities throughout the day. Very pleasant experience! Kaiser had a blast!! Thank you, Tara and family!”
“Heather is absolutely amazing! We’ve never left one of our dogs with anyone outside of family and it was so nice to see they had a blast and made themselves feel right at home. She is flexible, quick response time and has plenty of room for our dogs to run and play, also meeting some new friends with their dogs. We will keep our dogs going to Heather anytime we leave town and she is available.”
“Erin and her family were absolutely amazing! Our dog Millie was so well cared for and genuinely loved during her stay. The communication was excellent throughout—we always felt confident that she was in great hands. We will definitely book with Erin again the next time we travel. Huge thanks to Erin and her family for taking such wonderful care of Millie!”
“I was in a pinch to find a new dog sitter and Lori came through for me. She took such good care of Milo and gave him tons of attention. Lori also did a nice job grooming him. Thank you Lori for everything!”
“Erica was so great, I’m solo pet owner and had plans at the last minute, she was so great with Marvel on first visit and my accommodation for extra day. He is smaller so he takes a few minutes to observe before playing with big dogs, but once he gets started he loves play dates all sizes”
“Jaime and Mike are the best. They treat my dog as one of their own and send pics and updates all the time. Super flexible as well. My dog loves them and get supper excited to see them. Highly recommend”
“Alexsys took great care of my elderly cat who has medical issues. I was so nervous about going away and leaving him, and it was nice to have peace of mind that he was getting the attention and care that he needs. Alexsys was very accommodating and communicative, and I am glad we found her!”
“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!”
“This lady is AMAZING! last minute medical situation and with a new puppy. She was so welcoming and so nice. Great communication amazing updates and seriously she could be a pro dog photographer. Just absolutely no. 1 best person on Rover. Anyone in the area needing someone to care for your pups have to give her a shout!”
“Dana is so wonderful with our dog Maya! When we drop off Maya she’s already wagging her tail to see Dana! As pet parents, it just warms our hearts to see the bond Maya has with Dana!!!! Definitely would recommend Dana to anyone looking for a great pet sitter!!!”
“If I could give Leslie 10 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ well I just did!! She is a dream care giver, treated my girl like she was her own. Leslie sent me daily reports (morning and evening!!) along with photos and even a couple videos. Allie had a wonderful vacation (truthfully couldn’t have gone any better) and we both are relaxed and happy. I am soooo thankful I found Leslie, I wouldn’t consider contacting anyone else. She is TOP NOTCH. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️”
“It is obvious from how my dog behaves when I drop her off that she loves spending time with Maria. Maria makes her feel so comfortable in her home and goes out of her way to tend to her needs. We get updates with pictures to let us know how our dog is doing, but we do not worry because we know she is in good hands.”
“Anahita did a great job with my two dogs. The older dog gets anxious and my younger dog is a 1yearbold with lots of energy. Anahita’s calm manner worked wonderfully with both. I highly recommend her … she’s great!”
“Whitney was so amazing with our dogs. This was our first time using Rover and she made the booking process smooth and simple. We were so comfortable leaving our girls with her. We got daily updates and photos of our dogs and the adventures they had the farm. We were at ease and able to enjoy our time away from home without any worries. I will be recommending her to our friends and we will be booking with her again.”
