“Rae is a kind and attentive person, and she made Oliver feel safe and comfortable during his entire stay. This was his first boarding experience not with family, and he had a good time. Will re-book!”
“Matthew took great care of our dog! He regularly sent pictures and our pup came home exhausted from all the yard/park play. Will definitely book again with him next time we go away.”
“Fern & Sherlock love their stays at Nicole’s home! My fiance and I know that they are having lots of fun and are well taken care of while we are away. We also love all the photos and videos Nicole sends us!”
“My pup is in his 16th year! I’m particular when it comes to his care and keeping him on schedule with prescribed medication, and nutritional needs. Thank goodness I met Kelly, I was able to relax and enjoy a weekend away, with the knowledge that he was in terrific hands. Complete with updated photos, she kept me informed. Thank you, Kelly.”
“Brittany was great with our dogs! We just adopted one of them last month so we weren’t sure how she would do. Brittany sent us lots of updates and took very good care of both of them. We will absolutely be using her again!”
“Emmanuel was amazing! My pups had such a great time with him! You always hope that whoever you leave your fur babies with will treat them like you treat them. Emmanuel was this person! He gave Daisy all the pets she needed and Baxter all the new sticks he craved for. He interpreted Baxter’s “dog talk” which gave me the peace of mind that he cares deeply and provides the attention my pups needed. Highly recommend Emmanuel!”
“I’ve been dragging my feet on leaving this review for one reason alone: I want to keep Elizabeth to myself! She is the best sitter I’ve been able to find on this app, and she is great at communicating both prior to a booking and during as well. My dog comes back happy and tired every time he stays with her and is always so excited to go back to her house. I trust her with my dog every time!”
“I had a last minute work assignment and was looking for a doggie sitter for my two doggies. I sent a request and immediately received a response. I dropped my doggies at my scheduled time. I picked them up the next day and my two doggies did not want to leave. They had a great time playing with Megha and Irene’s doggies. The fenced yard was a plus and the home was neat, orderly and dog friendly.”
“Pat is incredible! From the very first moment, she was genuinely interested in Marrow, asking about all his habits, likes, and needs to ensure he felt right at home. That attention to detail made all the difference. Additionally, Pat sends plenty of updates and photos, which helps so much to ease any anxiety and makes missing him a lot easier. I can't forget to mention Mojo, who is an excellent host and also went above and beyond to make Marrow feel comfortable. We will definitely be back!”
“Jodee and AJ took amazing care of my shy pup while I was away for a few days. They have a great indoor and outdoor space and spent time with us during a meet and great to make sure all would go smoothly. Sent daily videos and pics to keep me reassured he was doing well. Would 100% recommend!”
“We've used Russ's services twice and they have been phenomenal. Harper has very specific instructions and Russell manages to follow them perfectly. She has allergies and is easily traumatized so we can tell immediately when a sitter doesn't follow instructions to a T. 100% recommend.”
“Jesus was excellent with Ice. Went on a short trip and I was confident knowing Ice was happy and well taken care of. The communication as well as hourly updated were everything you’d want when leaving your animal in the care of another person. I’d highly recommend him to any other owner if you’re looking to board. I will definitely be a repeat customer! Thank you Jesus for taking excellent care of Ice.”
“Jona took incredible care of our sweet Cooper while we were on vacation earlier this month. We greatly appreciated the thoroughness of her communication before and during Cooper's stay with her, and her thoughtful, calm approach. Cooper is a senior dog who requires multiple medications, and she handled this with ease. We will definitely be repeat customers.”
“Jennifer and Louis are FANTASTIC. They are Dolly's home away from home. I feel 100% at ease with Dolly in Jennifer's 24 hour care. Dolly has stayed with Jennifer before - and just now for 2 weeks and I will fly up from Florida for Dolly to stay with Jennifer and Louis when my family and I travel Internationally in October. Jennifer communicates, send pictures and keeps us informed. We love Jennifer and Dolly is always happy to see her and Louis.”
“Nina is so great with my dog Barza! I have booked with her before and Barza always comes home a happy pup! Nina send pictures and updates daily and is super accommodating. Will definitely book again!!”
“Carlos was amazing! I was nervous to leave Coco with a sitter but Carlos was kind, patient and an obvious dog lover. He kept me updated throughout her stay with pictures and stories of what she was doing. I absolutely plan on using him for future trips!”
“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.”
“Alesha takes great care of our pups and provides a lot of updates! They always come back happy and sleepy. This past time, our pup was a little sick and Alesha went out of her way to give her special food and kept us updated on her status.”

“So grateful for Samantha for watching my cats. I appreciate her communication and thoroughness. Thank you for sending pictures of the cats while I was on vacation. I highly recommend her and would use her service again.”
“Jennifer did so well with our kitties and paid great attention to detail. From noticing behavioral changes to offering to water plants around the house, she truly put care and attention into everything. Thanks for being so attentive and making sure to play with Gigi every day so Mac could be left alone to be the grumpy old man he is.”
“We were so grateful that Daisy could help look over our cat on such short notice. She was prompt to respond and flexible in navigating access to our apartment. She was early to arrive and was very sweet to our newly adopted cat, interacting with him and playing with all of his favorite toys. Thank you for caring for him so well!”
“Samantha provided amazing care for my two cats. She was really attentive to their needs, including administering medication, grooming, refiling water fountains, cleaning up after one of my kitties got sick. She's great about letting the cats do their own thing; giving them space when they don't feel social or playing and giving pets when they do.”
“Juan did a great job house sitting and taking care of our three cats while we were away on a long trip! We came home and the house was in great shape, everything we’d asked him to look after was taken care of, and our girls were happy and healthy. They also seemed way more chill than they usually are when we go away, so they must have enjoyed his company!”
About: I’ve had and loved pets my entire life! (I was convinced I was going to be a vet until I realized I would very likely sob every time a pet got sick.) From my black lab, Raven, to my cats Lily and Langston, to now, my long-haired chihuahua, Midge, animals are just a part of the day-to-day! Since age 12, I’ve been petsitting for friends, family, and neighbors (including overnight stays) and cared for dogs who are super energetic, playful, and independent to dogs who experience some anxiety and might need a bit more attention❤️! I also have experience caring for a bit older doggos. My black lab, Raven, lived to 16 and as her mobility and needs changed, I changed with her and it really taught me to be very attentive, gentle, and adaptive to a pets needs. I’m comfortable and experienced with walking, feeding, brushing, playtime, litter boxes, and loving and attention when pets want or need it❤️! So whether your pet is super energetic and playful or just wants a calm, reassuring companion, I’m happy to match their vibe and energy and make them feel loved and at home☺️🐾! I’m a rising junior at Virginia Tech and home for the summer, working part-time as a server in the Fort Hunt/Hybla Valley area. I have a super flexible schedule and lots of free time to spend with your pets, so I’m available for walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, or whatever else your pet might need😊! Mainly, I care for pets in the comfort of their own home with walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays! I make sure to stick to their routine, make sure they get plenty of playtime, attention, and exercise (or just hang out if that’s more their style!) I don’t usually host pets in my home, but I’m super flexible and want to make sure your pet feels happy and loved, and I’ll always make sure to send updates and pics📸🫶!
“Amanda was wonderful! Very professional and attentive. My cats were happy and didn’t misbehave at all while I was gone, which is not normal behavior for them (haha). Will absolutely rebook with Amanda for future drop in visits.”
“Jeana was so great with our two cats. She took care of them so well and kept us updated on everything. She was also so patient with some delay in our response given the time difference with where we were at the time.”
“Isela was great! This is the second time I've had her look after my senior cat and I really appreciate her being there to give his meds and hang out with him. Will absolutely be booking more visits very soon!”
About: I have had my own cats for the last 11 years, I have two cats and love them dearly. Cats are a little harder to figure out than dogs but I love the challenge because cats are so special and it's super rewarding when you gain their trust as they don't give it away freely.
“Honestly the 2 nicest people you could ever ask to watch your cats. They were great with giving my cats their meds. I came home knowing they had everything taken care of at my house. They even picked up my mail.”
“Very kind and easy to work with. Even offered to help us with our move. Patty was always happy to see him and get some play time - and she’s usually a very shy cat!”
About: Hello my name is Hailee im 18! I’ve always loved cats and honestly have wished for one my whole life, but my family hasn’t allowed it. Even so, I’ve found so much joy in being around and caring for the cats in my community. I regularly help take care of my neighbor’s cat who has hyperthyroidism, making sure hes comfortable and well looked after. I also visit another neighbor who has two cats — a playful Bengal and a black cat — and I enjoy spending time with them and helping out whenever I can. On top of that, my childhood best friend has a tabby and a fluffy Persian that I often help care for, whether it’s feeding them, cleaning up, or just keeping them company. People jokingly call me the “cat whisperer” because cats seem to naturally warm up to me and follow me around. Even though I don’t have a cat of my own, I’ve spent years learning how to care for them with patience, love, and attention to detail.
“Julie was amazing! I would use her services without hesitation. Very professional and competent. Daily would send me pics and videos. I never for one moment was worried about the care she was providing my furry son. I highly recommend her! My cat connected with her and went into cat loaf and pet me mode almost immediately. That in itself is a huge sign of her highly rated skill level.”

“Lucy had a fun day with Russ and the two resident dogs. She loved being outside in the yard. Russ was easy to work with and very accommodating even when I had unexpected delays. Lucy can’t wait to come back!”
“Wow wow!! So amazing!! Dunder had so much fun! Micheal and Erin accommodated my very early morning schedule and sent me updates throughout the day. They have lots of dogs and it’s a great environment for pups to play!”
About: I owned a dog for most of my life. My dog sadly passed away after fifteen great years of happiness! I watch my friend's dogs when they go out of town because I'm usually always reliable and do most of my work inside my home. I am not lazy with taking dogs on walks and I care for pets like they are my own :) I am a stay at home mom to a 2 year old so I am always home to care for your loved one. We have a fenced backyard and lots of areas to walk. I can be flexible about what your pet needs. If you would prefer them in a crate at night I’d be happy to do that but usually I love having your pets roam around my townhouse and our fenced yard!
“Honestly, Nicole is a godsend... I don't know what we'd do without her! She and her family LOVE dogs and I trust her to take the most excellent care of my guy. Ernie loves her and loves the other pups of all sizes he gets to play with. The yard is amazing and he has full run of her house. I literally cannot recommend her more highly!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for about 3 years now I love meeting new dogs and get to experience their personality and also care about them like they are my own. I love making funny memes with your pets so get ready! Your furbaby will be sending you text messages! My schedule is flexible! Depending on what time and day you need me. I also accept last minute bookings. Also I accept extended time bookings. I love being around them and letting your furbaby have fun! Let me know if your pet has any sort of allergies. I also make sure to keep an eye on them 24/7
“My dog had an amazing time and I am so appreciative that he was able to accommodate my last minute booking. Absolutely loved the photos and videos, and the fast communication. Will definitely book again!”
“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!”
“Brian and Andrew took great care of our girl! Our pup was a little nervous being in a new place, but Brian and Andrew were so patient and she quickly felt right at home! They sent lots of photos and updates. Their pup Naomi is so sweet and playful. We picked up a very happy girl! Our dog Twyla is excited for her next visit!”
“Truffle had a fantastic time with Jenovie! She was very communicative and flexible with our schedules. Truffle didn’t want to leave when it was time to go. We look forward to working with Jenovie again.”
“Hi Ashley, Thank you for caring for Dezi. He was very calm when I picked him which is a sign that he was comfortable with you. Dezi and I look forward to seeing you when you bring over his doughnut bed today. Alma Sanford”
“Megan is so amazing with our Sable. She helps us with her training and takes her on plenty of walks and makes sure she is happy and comfortable. We will continue to hire Megan to watch Sable.”
“Jennifer was amazing and helped me out last minute when another rover sitter cancelled! She was super responsive and Spike enjoyed spending the day with her and Louis :) I would definitely book again!”
“Christin took such wonderful care of Vinny! We received regular updates with messages and photos throughout his stay, which we really appreciated. Vinny was clearly so happy and comfortable with her — they went on walks, and she was flexible with a later evening pickup. When we got him back, he was calm and relaxed, which is not something we experience very often. It was clear he felt safe, cared for, and truly enjoyed his time with Christin. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for excellent care.”
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.
“We had a good experience with Nina - she and her boyfriend watched our 2 Australian Shepherd for a few hours. They were easy to communicate with and responded quickly to messages. We’d be happy to use them again!”
“Beverley and Chip are nice as can be and clearly love dogs. They have a huge backyard that would be great for any size dog -- and their own pups are great! I appreciated their great communication and care for my little one and would definitely book again.”
“Kasey made me AND Pinot feel so at ease! She was so enjoyable to communicate and work with. Very detailed and thorough in her updates and overall a genuine and caring person! Thank you for having Pinot.”
About: We have over 20 years of pet care experience. This includes walking dogs, caring for cats in their homes, and caring for our own pets, a pair of guinea pigs and our two beagles. We work from home, which allows us to attend to the dogs that stay in our home as daycare or overnight guests and to provide dog walking services. We have a locked fenced-in yard at the back of our townhouse. We will supervise the pets and observe their behavior to ensure everyone gets along.
“Gunner has been coming to Jason’s for Doggy Daycare and loves it! He’s usually super anxious but he’s been excited to go there. Jason also gives updates with pictures when I message to check in which is great!☺️”

“Brittani has been walking my dog Denim this past week, and I honestly couldn’t be happier. Returning to the office has been a huge adjustment for both me and Denim since she struggles with separation anxiety, but Brittani has been so patient, kind, communicative, and reliable throughout the transition. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with, and that peace of mind means everything to me. Really grateful we found her, and Denim is too 🐾”
“Michael was amazing! He was able to walk Pepe with little notice and I very much appreciate his willingness to come over ASAP. Michael played with Pepe and you can tell he genuinely loves walking dogs through his review and pictures.”
“Samantha was great with my pups, appreciated the communication after the walks and the photos shared of their walk. My pups are very shy, so appreciate her patience to let them warm up to her and spending time for pets and cuddles.”
“Ian did a great job filling in for a few noontime walks for my young (still learning and sometimes reactive) hound. Thank you for the feedback and photos. And thank you for a tired pup!”
“This amazing couple truly went above and beyond! They took my beloved Remi for a walk, fed her, and embraced all his affectionate kisses. Their warmth, punctuality, and thoughtful updates throughout the walk made the experience exceptional. Highly recommend them for their incredible care and enthusiasm. They've made a lasting impression, and we'll definitely be booking with them again!”
“It's a pleasure to be rebooking with Kaitlyn and Auston!! They are reliable and provide excellent communication (including asking questions I forget to provide information for first)!”
“Isela took great care of Max and gave him much comfort while I was away. I chose to do this at the last minute never doing anything like this before and it was a wonderful experience. Thank you, Isela!”
“Zach has been great with our two pups. Our dogs look forward to their walks with Zach. He always makes sure to communicate with us and we recommend booking with him!”
“I will absolutely use Claudia again. She is on top of stuff! Wanted to meet my dog in advance and asked questions indicating she’s very responsible. After the walk, texted me about something small on my dog *I* had not noticed. Claudia is attentive, responsible and communicative. Recommend!”
About: I’ve cared for both cats and dogs since I was very young. Through my former work at a local animal shelter, I gained valuable experience with pets of all species, ages, sizes, and needs. My days are very flexible, so I’m easily able to fit in visits at most times throughout the day. If we schedule recurring visits, I prefer they mostly stay at the same times from week to week. At this time, I am only able to care for your pet in your own home. If you have any questions about my services, please message me. I will do everything possible to accommodate the individual needs of your dog or cat.
“Very nice lady. Was available last minute to help me walk my dog while being sick. Yuki enjoyed it very much. He came back exhausted which helped me get more rest. Will be rebooking her❤️ Thank you Kaitlyn”
“Joanna is an Angel!! I am so grateful for her. She is amazing with my reactive dog, and she is so knowledgeable about dog behavior and signals. Joanna goes above and beyond to make sure my girl is well cared for and happy!”
“Emma was super sweet! She agreed to walk our dog on a very short notice (1 day), arrived on time and even spent extra 5 minutes walking him. Additionally, she kindly offered to wipe the paws since it was wet outside. Outstanding service! I’m happy to have found an excellent walker on our first try. We will order more services moving forward!”
“Shanell has been walking my pup for about a week now and has been extremely reliable . I had another sitter drop out on me the day before I started my new job and Shanell responded quickly and came next day for a meet and greet! She always sends updates and my pup seems to rly be taking a liking to her. Cant wait to continue working with her!”
“Joy is wonderful! She’s walked my dog many times now. She’s always on time, always prompt to accept the walk-requests, takes cute photos, and takes great care of my pup (always making sure he gets food and water and a treat on her visit). Highly recommend her!”

He took to Julie immediately on our first meet up and was happy to spend the week with her during my travels. I am so grateful for her many updates throughout each day, with photos that proved Mojo was happy to be in her care. If there was a 10 star review permitted, I would happily give Julie this rating without hesitation. Except for of course the dates that Mojo needs her !”
“Francise is the absolute best all around: communication, photos, flexibility, and most importantly, the best care for Monty, who loves her. She can handle his reactive leash walking too, which gives me peace of mind. This is the second time we’ve used her and will do so again!”
“Joy was absolutely amazing. I appreciate her help caring for Silly last weekend. Silly has so much fun playing with Caz all weekend long! Joy was responsive the whole weekend and made sure Silly had some love.”
“My husband and I HIGHLY recommend Fnu & Eric. We will always use them when we go away. They do amazing with our two labs! They make sure to stay connected with us and send us pictures on how they are doing. This is the second timing using them!”
