“Rachel was great! This was our first time leaving the pup and using Rover. She was very accommodating to our last minute needs, and the perfect match. Yadi loved playing with Tucker and Rachel send tons of updates ans photos which I really appreciated. Cared for Yadi as she would her own dog. Would recommend and we will definitely be using her again!”
“Ali did an amazing job watching our pup for five days! Cooper is an eight month old morkie who is going through a skittish phase with new people. Ali and her family put him right at ease and updated me with photos throughout the week. I could tell he was relaxed and felt right at home! Staying with a family was a much better option for Cooper than a kennel. I would highly recommend Ali and will be using her services again!”
“Tatiana is the BEST! She is so good to my Boston Terrier and her dog and cat are too. Stevie gets her own fun vacation when she goes to Tatiana’s house and I get fun pics that let me know she is doing well. I’m so lucky to have found her.”
“Deborah, her daughter, and their dog Lotus are absolutely wonderful. I left my dog with them for a week and couldn’t have been happier! My girl was so well cared for and received tons of love and attention. The photos and videos they shared truly put me at ease and showed how much fun she was having. They were incredibly kind, welcoming, and accommodating to both of us. I would highly recommend them!”
“Leslie was great! She provided us with updates every day about how our pup was eating and sleeping, along with photos and videos so we could see that things were going well. We could tell that our girl was comfortable with Leslie, and getting lots of attention and playtime. Thank you, Leslie!”
“Vidhi did a wonderful job taking care of Buddy. Communication was smooth throughout his stay, and she sent daily pictures, which gave me peace of mind. I also loved that she also has a mini Goldendoodle, so Buddy had a buddy to keep him company! He looked very comfortable and happy in her home. I would definitely recommend Vidhi, and I have booked her again for next weekend.”
“Iryna is the best! We were a little nervous about leaving our two golden boys for the first time, but she took such wonderful care of them…giving them so much love, attention & sharing frequent updates that completely put us at ease. We’re so thankful to have found her and will absolutely book with her again.”
“John and Joanna were wonderful with our dogs as usual! Their attention to detail is so reassuring. One of our dogs needed continued medication and they were so good about keeping her on track. They consistently kept me informed. I will continue to use their pet sitting services because I believe there is no one out there who could care for them more.”
“Omar and his family took such great care of my Bella while I was away. From the moment I dropped her off, I could tell she was in a warm, welcoming environment. She had a blast playing with the other dogs and soaking up all the attention they gave her. What really stood out was the communication. Omar kept me updated with messages, and pictures which made it so much easier being away from her. I could see she was happy, relaxed, and truly being cared for like one of their own. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. Bella came home happy, and that says everything.”
“Leslie is guaranteed the best sitter within the DMV area. She has transformed her home into a dog’s luxury resort, complete with total attentiveness, ultimate amenities, and activities that a dog could only dream of. In addition to all of that, her communications are fantastic and Cash is always so excited to arrive at Ms. Leslie’s and never ready to leave. I’ve never had such peace of mind leaving Cash if/when I have to be out of town.”
“Eun and her family took such great care of Mario while we went on a cruise. She sent me pictures and videos daily and updated us on things through out his stay. She was very accommodating when our return flight was canceled. I would definitely recommend Eun, she is wonderful.”
“Sujan has been great! He's watched our dog twice this past year without issue. He's generous with sharing treats with our dog and photos with us. Communication has not been an issue. It was a good sign when our boy walked up to the house and door without issue on second visit. I'd have no qualms about booking with him again.”
“My dogs had a wonderful stay with Kristen. Her setup is amazing, horse pastures converted to huge, grassy play areas for the dogs, and indoor access to her house when they want to rest. I have high energy, young dog who likes to run and play, and an older dog who likes to be outside but also likes a nice, long snooze. She accommodated both with ease.”
“Lisa and family did a great job taking care of our Doberman. They are friendly and very responsive. The house has a large, fenced backyard which is perfect for the pups. Would definitely trust them for an extended stay. Highly recommend!”
“It makes me nervous to be so far away from my fur family but Kelly took exceptional care of the boys and sent updates everyday. It was clear they were as comfortable with their visit as I was. Thank you Kelly!”
“Ana is an amazing dog sitter. It was my dog's first time staying with her, and she went above and beyond to ensure he felt right at home. She took the time to share regular updates, which really put my mind at ease. I’m so grateful for her care and attention!”

“Amy was a fantastic sitter for our 3 cats! She she stayed in touch every day and sent photos after every visit. When I got home, they seemed disappointed not to see her. I will definitely be having Amy come back when I go out of town again!”
“Mercedez has once again managed to win over our big Manny cat full of neurosis as well as Samantha, the crotchety old lady, and remain friends with Moe-I-Love-Everyone. She handled the magical disappearing cat with patience. She's wonderful with updates and pictures. I'd recommend Mercedez and will definitely book again.”
“Vanessa did a wonderful job of taking care of our cats while we were out of town. Also cleaned up after one of my cat. Very thorough at her work and provided a timely care.”
“June is FANTASTIC and took such great care of our girls while we were away. Even our most critical kitty fell in love with her. She has a lovely way about making each kitty feel comfortable based on their unique personality.”
“Emily was our first Rover that we used since we adopted our kitty. She was very easy to communicate with and responded quickly. She sent very cute pictures of our kitty as well as followed all directions we gave while we were gone. We would definitely use her again in the future!”
“We hired Alexandra for drop-ins for our cat and she was great! At our first meeting she immediately was sitting on the floor giving our cat the affection he was requesting, and he was so happy. While we were gone she gave him all the cuddles he needed (we could tell by his behavior when we returned) and she followed the instructions we left. She always responded to messages quickly and communicated clearly. Definitely recommend.”
“Tammy took great care of my birds while I was out for a while! I know Rover is generally used for cats/dogs, but she is definitely one of the few who will go above and beyond for the less common pets! Thank you so much for taking care of all the babies for me!”
“Amy did an amazing job with our two kitties! She sent us wonderful updates and we could see how happy our boys were in all the photos. She gave us great peace of mind; excellent communication, professional, and very thoughtful care for our pets. We would recommend her to anyone.”
“Tracy was awesome!! She gave such good and loving care. I didn’t worry about a thing and our kitty loved her! He warmed up to her so quickly which made us feel good having to leave him with someone other than family for the first time. He was a happy boy!! Thank you Tracy!❤️”
About: I have lots of dog experience, as I had my own dog for 6 years and loved training him and taking him outside! Although I do not have a yard, there is a small fenced park for dogs very close to my house and usually very free! I love being in the outdoors and making sure your animal is well taken care of🐾 Currently, I am pretty free and will be home most of the time. I can definitely stick to any schedule your pet needs and am very flexible! I have no open doors or pet doors in order to ensure safety. There are no in house plants that may cause issues and I make sure to always keep in contact frequently with the owners with updates!
About: I have 2 cats , who are my absolute pride & joy. They are complete opposites! One of them being a complete cuddly & clumsy boy, who will let anyone meet him! & he is super chatty & is friendly with other cats as well, my other sweet boy is more reserved & takes him a while to warm up! he does not like his belly or back/tail area touched! only his head! unless special bond is created All Cats are different. , i can manage any personality , cats have every strong personalities & i would love to get to know your cats!
“Nouf was fantastic! She took great care of my cat and was flexible throughout my time away. Her communication was clear and I always knew my cat was doing well. She made sure my cat had her dinner with medication, kept the litter box clean, and spent time playing before leaving. I’ll definitely book with her again.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I share my home with three amazing best friends — two German Shepherds and a Labrador — and I love spending my free time outdoors with them. I spend a lot of my off-shift time hiking the beautiful trails around Loudoun, and for dogs who would enjoy joining me, I offer safe, supervised Hiking Outings. For my day job, I’m a firefighter with Loudoun County, which gives me a unique schedule with plenty of days off. That flexibility allows me to dedicate real time and attention to caring for other people’s pets. Before joining the fire service, I worked in Emergency Veterinary Medicine as a receptionist, where I saw firsthand how important it is to notice the little details in a pet’s health and behavior. That background taught me to spot potential red flags early and communicate clearly with owners if something ever seems off. Professional, reliable, and compassionate, I’ll treat your best friends like family — making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I work a 24-on/48-off schedule as a firefighter, which means I have plenty of full days off to fit in visits, walks, and even hiking outings. My schedule gives me the flexibility to spend real, quality time with your pets rather than rushing in and out. I’m also open to house sitting! Because of my shifts, we’d just need to plan coverage for the times I’m on duty. I have trusted contacts in the local pet care community, or I’m happy to coordinate with another sitter of your choice to make sure your pets always have consistent care. My primary focus is to treat your pet like he or she was my own. When your pet is under my care, you can rest assured that they will be loved, respected, and protected! I will provide an environment comfortable for your pet to be themselves and enjoy our time together, and maintain a safe and proper experience for them!

About: I will treat every pet like they’re my own. I grew up with dogs most of my life and recently lost a dog-son to a cancer 2 years ago. I do prefer non-shedding dogs due to allergies which allows me to provide a clean and comfortable environment for both your pet and my family. As a stay-at-home mom to a two-year-old, I’m home throughout the day and able to give your dog plenty of attention, care, and affection. Your dog will be treated like part of our family and loved as if they were my own. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible daily routine that allows me to give pets lots of time and attention. Walks, playtime, feeding, and rest are all built into our day. Since I’m home most of the time, your dog will rarely be left alone and will be treated like part of our daily family life. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment tailored to each dog’s needs. I stick closely to their usual routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and playtime. Since I’m home throughout the day, your dog will receive plenty of attention and supervision. I prefer caring for non-shedding dogs due to allergies, which helps maintain a healthy space for everyone.

About: I have had furry family members for as long as I can remember.

I am available for drop-in visits and walks most weekday afternoons. Your pup can get a potty break and we both can get a nice walk. I have been a pet foster volunteer for a few years.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, attention, and energy I bring to every pet I look after. I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply having someone nearby, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. As an active person, I enjoy keeping dogs engaged through walks, exercise, and interactive play. I am comfortable caring for puppies who need patience and consistency, as well as senior dogs who may require a gentler approach and extra attention. I am reliable, communicative, and always provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is to treat every pet like family and provide the same level of care and attention that I would want for my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. As a college student with a flexible schedule, I have availability throughout the week for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. During the summer and school breaks, I have even greater flexibility and can dedicate additional time to caring for pets. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, making dog walking and playtime something I genuinely look forward to. When caring for your pet, I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, companionship, and care based on their individual needs. Whether it’s a quick visit, a long walk, or extended pet sitting, I am committed to being reliable, communicative, and ensuring your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. The safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet are my top priorities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special care requirements. I understand that consistency helps pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. During walks and visits, I remain attentive to my surroundings and ensure pets are always safely leashed and supervised. I provide plenty of affection, playtime, and companionship while respecting the rules and routines established by the owner. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving excellent care. I treat every pet and home with the same level of respect, responsibility, and care that I would expect for my own.
“Sabrila is very kind, reliable and responsible. It was kind of a last minute booking and she took the time to come and meet my doggies before walking them. Will definitely be working with her again and I highly recommend her.”

“Nic and his wife Carmen were great on their walk with Scuba. He’s a young and mouthy puppy and tries to eat everything during walks. They handled him with care and he seems to have enjoyed his walk. I’d recommend them!”
About: Hi I’m Anna! I’m a lifelong animal lover who has grown up with pets and understands how important it is to provide them with safe, loving care. I currently have an 8 year old Vizsla named Marshall. I have experience walking dogs and dog sitting dogs of all sizes, including a white Labrador named Cash and a Yorkipoo named Pixie. I also just recently helped host a service dog event at my school! Since I am a runner, I’m always staying active so I’m committed to making sure every dog gets the exercise and affection they deserve! I currently work part time as a lifeguard so my availability is built around that. On the days I do work I am available anytime from 6am to 10am, and 8:30pm to 10:00pm. When I’m not working, I am available all day. I provide dog walking in the clients area so they are in a safe, familiar environment. I also follow all owners instructions carefully, including leash preferences, feeding notes, or any special treats they are able to have after a long walk!
“We’ve been using June for walks while we’re at work and she is great!! Our dog Norbert loved her immediately! She is extremely communicative and leaves detailed report cards! I know Norbert is in good hands with June, and we’re lucky to have found her!”
About: I’ve been doing pet/house sitting and dog walking since I was young for family and friends. I’ve always been very passionate about animals and I’ve worked with all ages from puppies to kittens to puppers on their last leg. I’m very patient and understanding with senior dogs and I have a bit of experience in training from taking my own dog to classes! I have a part time job, usually only working afternoons a few times a week. Looking for another job that I’ll love and that’s why I’m starting Rover!! I’ve got plenty of time on my hands and with your pets is how i’d love to spend it!! If needed I have a friendly pup and dog friendly cat at home if needed but I’m willing to stay in your home or just check in as needed, sending photos and updates to ensure your pets safety and security! Making sure they’re walked, fed and most importantly loved!!!
About: Ever since I was born my family has had 2-3 dogs in the home. Have had a golden retriever every type of lab and a corgi. Also dog sit my sisters pitbull. Every weekday I’m free until 5-6. Just graduated with a masters degree in accounting and waiting to start work in public accounting in the fall. I love taking dogs for walks as I know the smells are very important for them. I enjoy playing with them as well they deserve all the love.
About: Hi, my name is Samantha! I have been caring for dogs for most of my life and bring a genuine passion for animal well-being to every booking. Growing up, my family had a Collie, and from an early age I took on full responsibility for her day-to-day care — managing her feeding schedule, ensuring she received the specific amount of exercise her breed required, and keeping her happy and comfortable at home. As she aged, her care became more complex, and I became the primary person responsible for administering her medication. This experience gave me hands-on confidence with the often-tricky task of getting a dog to take a pill — a skill many pet owners truly appreciate. More recently, I have cared for my neighbors' dogs on multiple occasions over the past several years, building a trusted, ongoing relationship with both the pets and their owners. I understand that every dog has its own personality, routine, and needs, and I make it a priority to honor those routines so your pup feels safe and at ease while you're away. Whether your dog needs gentle companionship, an energetic walk, or attentive care around a medical routine, I am fully prepared to provide it with patience, reliability, and plenty of love. I am currently a college student on summer break, which means dog walking fits seamlessly and generously into my routine right now. With no classes or academic commitments pulling at my schedule, I have wide-open availability throughout the week — mornings, afternoons, and weekends included. If you need a consistent daily walker this summer, I am in an ideal position to provide exactly that. Having this kind of open schedule means I will never be rushing to fit your dog's walk in between other obligations. I can be fully present, unhurried, and attentive every single time — which makes a real difference in the quality of care your dog receives. Beyond availability, walking dogs is genuinely one of my favorite ways to spend time this summer. Getting outside, staying active, and spending time with animals is something I look forward to every day — your dog will not just be a booking on my calendar, they will be the best part of my afternoon. Before every walk, I will arrive a few minutes early to greet your dog calmly and allow them to get comfortable with me before we head out. I will always check in with owners beforehand to understand their dog's specific routine — preferred walking routes, pace, any leash behaviors to be aware of, and whether there are other dogs or triggers to watch out for along the way. During the walk, your dog's safety will be my top priority. I will keep them securely leashed at all times unless the owner has explicitly designated an off-leash area, and I will stay fully attentive — no distractions. I will match the walk's length and energy level to what the dog needs, whether that's a brisk, stimulating outing or a more relaxed stroll. After the walk, I will ensure your dog is settled back home comfortably — wiping muddy paws, refreshing their water bowl, and making sure they are calm and secure before I leave. I will send a post-walk update with a photo so you will always know how the outing went, giving you peace of mind wherever you are.
“Alexandra is friendly and knowledgeable about dog walking/care and was flexible in taking care of Winston on short notice. Alexandra was timely in her visits, provided full details on her visit including photos. We would recommend Alexandra to others and will use Alexandra in the future. Thanks Alexandra.”

“Rachel was great! This was our first time leaving the pup and using Rover. She was very accommodating to our last minute needs, and the perfect match. Yadi loved playing with Tucker and Rachel send tons of updates ans photos which I really appreciated. Cared for Yadi as she would her own dog. Would recommend and we will definitely be using her again!”
“Deborah, her daughter, and their dog Lotus are absolutely wonderful. I left my dog with them for a week and couldn’t have been happier! My girl was so well cared for and received tons of love and attention. The photos and videos they shared truly put me at ease and showed how much fun she was having. They were incredibly kind, welcoming, and accommodating to both of us. I would highly recommend them!”

We were a little nervous about leaving our two golden boys for the first time, but she took such wonderful care of them…giving them so much love, attention & sharing frequent updates that completely put us at ease. We’re so thankful to have found her and will absolutely book with her again.”
“Leslie is guaranteed the best sitter within the DMV area. She has transformed her home into a dog’s luxury resort, complete with total attentiveness, ultimate amenities, and activities that a dog could only dream of. In addition to all of that, her communications are fantastic and Cash is always so excited to arrive at Ms. Leslie’s and never ready to leave. I’ve never had such peace of mind leaving Cash if/when I have to be out of town.”
“Sujan has been great! He's watched our dog twice this past year without issue. He's generous with sharing treats with our dog and photos with us. Communication has not been an issue. It was a good sign when our boy walked up to the house and door without issue on second visit. I'd have no qualms about booking with him again.”
“My dogs had a wonderful stay with Kristen. Her setup is amazing, horse pastures converted to huge, grassy play areas for the dogs, and indoor access to her house when they want to rest. I have high energy, young dog who likes to run and play, and an older dog who likes to be outside but also likes a nice, long snooze. She accommodated both with ease.”
“Lisa and family did a great job taking care of our Doberman. They are friendly and very responsive. The house has a large, fenced backyard which is perfect for the pups. Would definitely trust them for an extended stay. Highly recommend!”
“It makes me nervous to be so far away from my fur family but Kelly took exceptional care of the boys and sent updates everyday. It was clear they were as comfortable with their visit as I was. Thank you Kelly!”
“Stacie is amazing! I’ve been packing up my house prepping to list my house on he market for sale while my husband was on travel for the month. Remy wasn’t doing so well with all the sudden changes and was experiencing stomach issues (vomiting diarrhea). I dropped Remy off at daycare only to turn the car back around to pick him up as I couldn’t leave him knowing how hard he fought to not leave my side. I contacted Stacie in the daycare parking lot expressing my current situation and apologizing for the last minute notice. Stacie was very understanding and was available within a few hours to welcome Remy into her home. The meet and greet/drop off was done within a few hours. Stacie personality is soo friendly and understanding while Ziggy is just a big loving teddy bear with a calm temperament. I felt a little better leaving Remy but I wasn’t entirely okay driving away. Less than an hour I received an update on Remy with a picture of him playing with his favorite toys. Whew! He has forgotten about Mom and is enjoying Stacie and Ziggy. Throughout Remy 7 day boarding stay, Stacie updated me with pictures throughout the day from sunrise to sunset. Throughout this stressful time of moving (hubby on travel) and Remy away with tummy issues I was really having a hard time. Stacie was a significant help by reassuring me Remy was doing better. I am soo happy i found her on Rover. It was difficult leaving Remy but by the second night I was more relax and able to focus on prepping my house. We communicated throughout his entire stay, Stacie informed me on how he was doing which improved each day. When I picked Remy up Stacie was sad to see Remy leave and honestly I think Remy was too. All Remy belongings were packed and ready. On the way leaving I let down the window in the car and wave while Remy barked goodbye to Stacie and Ziggy! It was definitely reassuring he had a good time. Thank you so much Stacie for helping a stressed out Mom in a time of need. I plan to book you in the future! Big kisses and hugs for Ziggy!”
“Our dog has the best time going to Jennifer's house when we go out of town for the weekend. As soon as we pull up to her driveway he immediately knows where he is and gets so excited to go inside and play with her dog. You can tell her and her family are so warm with their pets. We feel good leaving our dog there knowing he is in great hands having the best time. Jennifer always is great about providing daily communication and pictures. We would recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pup”
“Carl was great, once again! He sends a ton of photos and detailed updates about how she is doing, which we appreciate because we know Nala is being loved. He also takes her on many walks and to the dog park because she has an absolute blast there! He is also very quick to respond and extremely flexible with our schedule. Highly recommend!”
“Julianne was an angel! ❤️ She was amazing with our dog, Macy (who can be high maintenance). Communication was top notch with regular updates. I also received occasional photos showing how quickly Macy warmed up to her and the family. Macy seemed bummed to leave Julianne and family, which is so comforting knowing that Macy was in the best of care. ❤️ If you are looking for a sitter, look no further- Julianne is wonderful!”
“This was Oliver's first time separated from us. Kenneling was not an option as Oliver is such a people pooch. I found Lori on Rover.com as a friend recommended the site. Lori sounded wonderful and was close by. Lori came by for a 'meet & greet' and hit it off with Oliver straightaway. We dropped Oliver off and left on our trip with great relief. While we were away Lori sent me a photo of Oliver in the backyard loving life. I highly recommend - your pooch will be in not just good, but caring hands.”
About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old and have been a dedicated pet parent for the past 13 years. Over the years, I have worked closely with professional trainers and dog behaviorists, gaining valuable knowledge about canine behavior, training, and enrichment. My passion for dogs extends beyond companionship—I genuinely enjoy understanding how they learn and helping them feel confident, safe, and happy. I also have experience caring for senior dogs, including providing compassionate support and specialized care during their later years. Having shared my life with dogs through every stage, I understand the importance of treating each pet as an individual and caring for them with patience, attentiveness, and love, just as I would my own family. work from home, which allows me to provide attentive care and companionship throughout the day. I live in a townhouse and ensure dogs receive plenty of exercise and enrichment through two long walks daily, along with multiple shorter walks and potty breaks tailored to each dog's individual needs, energy level, and routine. My flexible schedule enables me to maintain consistency, provide regular supervision, and make sure every pet feels comfortable, engaged, and well cared for during their stay. Dogs in my care are treated like part of the family. I provide plenty of affection, attention, and one-on-one care tailored to each dog's unique personality, energy level, and dietary needs. Whether your pup enjoys active playtime, relaxing companionship, or extra cuddles, I make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and at home. To give you peace of mind while you're away, I provide daily updates, photos, and videos so you can stay connected and see how much fun your dog is having during their stay.
