“Super nice family with great communication from beginning to end. Very understanding with flexible times of drop off or pick up. Covey felt perfectly at home and we knew that when we saw pictures of him lounging on the family’s couch! It was a great experience for us to know he was in good hands and getting affection and attention to his care as if he was there own dog.”
“Surina was very responsive before and during the booking. She also provided pictures of Luna during her stay which is always nice! I would recommend her if you are in the Fairfax, VA area.”
“I cannot recommend Alissa and Rich highly enough. They were absolutely wonderful with my pup while I was away for 10 days. They were excellent at providing updates and Rosie seemed so incredibly happy in their care. Will absolutely use them again in the future!”
“Thoughtful, sent plenty of updates. This was our first time away from our puppy, and she put our mind at ease. Her pup Bentley is a sweetheart.”
“Eduardo and his wife had my dog for a night and they were incredibly kind and caring. He started a new medication and didn't react well too it and they kept me fully informed. I would highly recommend Eduardo.”
“Tien couldn’t have done a better job taking care of our dog. We were on vacation for 12 days, and we received updates/pictures daily from Tien. Our dog was in great spirits when we picked her up, and it was clear she enjoyed being with Tien. Will definitely be bringing lulu back to Tien whenever we go out of town, if she’s available.”
“Kathleen has now cared for our two dogs 3 times (almost more than we saw them last month). She is absolutely amazing; she has no problem getting my older dog to take her pills, they get super excited to see her and she has been beyond flexible with us on drop off and pick-up. I highly recommend her!”
“This is the second time my Velcro dog has stayed with Christine ;) Christine is a great communicator and always keeps me up to date on my pet. I feel like I can relax and know my precious pooch is being taken care with Christine ❤️ when I'm out of town!”
“I’ve sent my dog Rory to stay with Michelle and her family several times now, and she does such a good job that I think he likes her place better than mine! See you next time, Michelle (and baby, cats, and pup!)”

“Jennifer and Louis were very friendly and accommodating for me and my pup first overnight stay I was very nervous in the beginning due to it being my dog first overnight stay. I a new to the app and was looking for a playful friendly dog that my dog can stay and play with occasionally. We have found one thank you Jennifer and Louis for your hospitality pictures and videos everything went great!”
“My dog came home absolutely pooped from having so much fun! Super great sitters that sent lots of pictures and were super kind when I faced travel delays! 10/10”
“Great pet sitting and Chris couldn’t have been nicer and more likable. Raymond loved staying there. He came home, popped a Bud, lit a cigar and told me it was one of the great experiences he’s ever had. Said he could have lived in their backyard the rest of his life, that it was an explorer’s paradise with the most wonderful smells he’s ever encountered. Two thumbs, I mean paws, up!!! Outstanding. We will most definitely be using them again if they’ll let Raymond wreak more havoc upon their lives.”
“This was our first time boarding with Amanda, and we had a fantastic experience. I came away from the experience completely trusting her with our dog and would definitely book with her again. She was excellent at communicating, even accommodating our request to receive twice daily texts when our 9-year-old lab received his seizure medication. During our interactions it was clear she has a sound understanding of dog behavior and how to set up a positive environment for everyone. I'm always nervous trying to find sitters, but she made me feel at ease immediately and was great with our dog. 100% would recommend.”
“I had an amazing experience with Paula! She took such great care of my dog and sent frequent videos, photos, and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was on vacation. She took him on regular walks, and he absolutely loved playing with her wonderful dogs. I could tell he was happy and comfortable the entire time. I’m so grateful for her care and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and responsible sitter!”
“Michael is outstanding! He loves dogs and you can see it in his face, his spirit, and the way he interacts with my dog and the other little guy we saw. It gave me joy and comfort when we did the meet and greet and felt his energy. I felt no worry, and Michael's pictures and updates made me feel even better. We have a 155 pound puppy, barely 1.5 years - puppy energy, giant size, toddler brain, and moster drool and hair. Michael handled our beast with ease.”
“My dog, Hank, came back from his stay with Paul super happy! You can tell Paul is just naturally so great with dogs and I definitely trust him to take great care of Hank. Appreciated Paul watching Hank last minute, too.”

They really put in effort to get my shy girl to come out and spend quality time with her and made sure both of my cats were receiving lots of love! They also made sure to bring in any packages that came in and watered our plants while we were out. They were very communicative with updates and pictures and I felt very comfortable leaving my babies in their care. I would highly recommend! ☺️”

It’s always hard leaving our fur baby but having Rachel there put us at ease and we were able to enjoy our vacation peacefully. Will definitely work with her again. Thank you so much!”

Dani not only made Rocky feel safe but me as well leaving my eldest cat and my home in her care. She gave daily updates on refills of food, water, and litter but also Rocky’s temperament and updates on their evolving friendship between sitter and pet. First time Rover care user, 5/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Constanza is truly EXCEPTIONAL! I have entrusted her with the care of my furry family multiple times, this last time for almost two months while I was out of the country.

She goes above and beyond every time, and I am deeply grateful. Thank you again, Constanza!”

“Shane is terrific— he takes great care of my very spoiled kitties as if they were his own. He is very dependable, sends pictures whenever he visits, makes sure the litter box is clean and even took out my garbage and recycling. I hate leaving the boys at home, but it is much easier to do so when Shane is taking care of them. I highly recommend him.”
“We really enjoyed Amanda’s pet services. She took great care of our cats and followed up with pictures and a review of their visit. Amanda was friendly and caring, and we will highly recommend her to others.”

“I always get nervous leaving my 1 year old pup with someone new, but Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful and exceeded all my expectations.

“Jen and Louis saved the day and came through for me and my chiweenie Willar when I really needed a sitter who understands my senior pup's needs. Willar has dietary restrictions and some quirks, and Jen was attentive, followed all the instructions for Willar's routine, and she asked very thoughtful questions. Additionally, her dog Louis is so welcoming and sweet. They really helped with some transitions I'm going through and were very accommodating.”
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.
“My dog had a wonderful day in Tricia’s care! Tricia sent multiple photos and updates throughout the day. I look forward to having her watch my dog again.”
“I had a great experience with Suseth as Leo's sitter! She was so sweet and accommodating, even with my last-minute requests. Suseth was very responsive, and Leo came home happy, which says it all. I highly recommend her to anyone needing pet care! Thank you, Suseth!”
“Shane truly cares about the dogs in his daycare and treated my dog like a member of his family! I feel so fortunate to have discovered Shane on Rover. He is a true animal lover with a perfect daycare setup in Alexandria.”
“Adriana has been an amazing sitter for Rosie! Rosie is always excited to see her, which gives me peace of mind whenever I leave her in Adriana’s care. She is responsible, reliable, and incredibly accommodating, and I always know Rosie will be well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”
“Cynthia took fantastic care of Woody during his daycare visit. She took the time to learn his likes/dislikes and quirks so that he felt comfortable in a new place. And she managed to tire him out with fun and adventures with her and the other dogs.”
“Our German Shepherd had a wonderful time with Jhonathan! He was very tired after playing all day. Jhonathan is wonderful about sending pictures and updates throughout the day. Highly recommend!”
About: My first two rescues were Rottweilers my third and only child is the child that my mom blessed me with. She is a needy, loving girl but high energy so I’ve dealt with everything from couch potato to high Strong lovely I work from home and my height energy baby is used to go out multiple times a day and she is great with any dog she needs. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I am very active walking them in the neighborhood and we will always make time to go out. We are sidekick and we go walking together, dog parks together, but also she has not ever met a dog that she doesn’t love. Even those in the neighborhood that don’t get along with others love her. I do not have kids, but my nieces who are 5 to 9 or around her often so she is great with them, but I also understand those that don’t want their dog around kids so I will not bring them around them if they are uncomfortable.
“Kind, accommodating and extremely gentle. My dog misses her instantly and she will always be the person to care for him. She sends pictures and videos and truly is remarkable. Highly recommended”
“Ursula accommodated us last minute when we have to leave Teddy for a few hours. Her and her husband was caring dog parents. They reassured us that Teddy will be in good hands. They also sent us photos of Teddy frequently which my kids loved. Thanks you and keep up the good work! Will definitely book with them again in the future.”
“Diana was great with Pisco! He had such a fun time and she took such good care of him. She’s very responsive, communicative, and makes sure to share fun memories as well. Even when Pisco wasn’t feeling the best she made sure he was comfortable and kept me informed. Would definitely recommend her and return for more bookings!”
“Supon took great care of our dog Miles. He took him out on various walks and gave him some great chews and toys. Miles is a beagle that needs a lot of activity so I was happy to see that he was very tired after his day at Supon's. He went straight to bed when we got home and didn't even come into the kitchen when we were making food! At Supon's place Miles also got to hang out with other dogs and was able to be around people and dogs all day (his favorite thing!).”
About: Hi there! I’m Grant - my wife and I are huge dog lovers. In April of 2025, we lost our first dog, Moose, a 90lb golden retriever mix. To honor his memory, we began a fostering journey. We successfully fostered out 5 dogs (3 of them seniors) to their forever homes over the next year (including the 5th one, who became our own!). We are aquatinted with all kinds and sizes with dogs. It’s been an honor to get to know each one and explore their unique personalities! We currently have 2 dogs of our own at home: Ellie, a 3yo petite Great Pyrenees, and Charlie, a 2yo Australian Shepherd. They LIVE for playing with other dogs - we’d love to host your pup and provide them a happy, fun, safe space to stay while you are away. Do you have a big dog? Are you anxious about it pulling your dog walker? I’ve got experience with large dogs pulling and I can handle yours. I will give them the distance and space they need to have a happy and safe walk. I get anxious when we have others look after our dogs. Anything could happen. Know that I will bring every bit of care and safety to your dog that I bring to mine every day. They’re valuable members of your family and I will treat them as such. Please reach out with any questions. Thank you! I work from home when I am not traveling for work, so am fairly flexible during the day and week. Just let me know the time and we’ll see if it works! My own dog is like my child. I know that you feel the same way about yours. I will follow all instructions to a T. I am passionate about safety about my own dog - I will bring that level of care to you.

“Erin and her family are great! They’re punctual, reliable, and responsive. They did a great job of taking care of my dog. They came to meet her and run through her walk routine prior to the day of her being walked, and were fabulous all around. Can’t recommend them enough!”
“One of the best dog walkers! Autumn was great with my senior dog. She provides helpful notes for each visit, such as he had some water after the walk or enjoyed the extra belly rubs. Highly recommend for all dogs, but recommend Autumn if you have an older dog. She will provide them with lots of love and attention!”

About: Hi everyone, Its Jordan and my fiancé Laure. We are life long dog owners and lovers! No dogs here with us but Jaxon the staffordshire terrier and Chief the miniature pinscher are my mom’s dogs that we love to have over when we aren't boarding other dogs. Jax and Chief enjoy long walks, lots of fetch, and big ol’ bowls of water of course! We always make sure to get a good training on our walks to reinforce good habits! :) When we’re not with Jaxon and Chief, we love to meet other ones. Old or young, fast or slow, your pet is welcome here. :) Between the two of us, someone is always home. Never more than 3-4 hours max away if need be so your pup is in great hands. We make sure to accommodate each owner and pet to best suit their needs. Special care is always taken for elderly and/or easily spooked pets and plenty of walks and sniffs for the more energetic! Daily feeding and walks are planned around our daily schedules so flexibility is a breeze!
