“I couldn’t be more grateful for Joanna’s exceptional care for my fur baby Oliver. Not only did she provide a safe and loving environment, but she also went above and beyond by sharing valuable tips for caring for dogs. Her beautiful grass yard was a perfect space for Oliver to relax and enjoy some fresh air, and it was clear that she genuinely cares about each pet she hosts. I felt completely at ease knowing that Oliver was in such capable and attentive hands. Highly recommend Joanna for anyone looking for a trusted and compassionate pet sitter!”

“Candice did a wonderful job caring for our dog! She was communicative throughout the booking, pre-arrival, during care, and through pick up. She genuinely cares about the dogs in her care. We will definitely use her again!”

“Andrea's a wonderful caregiver for our Sophie and we know we can enjoy our vacation without worry. Communication is responsive and informative. Also, regularly sends pictures while we're away. Looking forward to having Andrea care for Sophie again very soon!”

“Poornima was amazing! She helped us out last minute over the weekend and took such good care of our dog. She kept us updated with texts and videos, which made us feel so much better while we had to be away unexpectedly. Our dog looked happy, relaxed, and totally comfortable with her. We’re really grateful for how kind, thoughtful, and reliable she was. We’d happily book with Poornima again and definitely recommend her!”

“AMAZING. By far our best experience with anyone on Rover! Priscilla was very communicative. Perfect amount of pictures and videos as well as updates on how the stay was going. I could really tell that our girl was getting the care and attention she is used to as well as play time. We have an English bulldog, and anyone with one knows their folds need daily care, and I could see Priscilla gave these areas attention care as well. I would feel most confident and comfortable bringing our girl back to Priscilla without hesitation!”

“Mei provided great care for our Cooper. We had a last minute medical issue right before we left and she provided his care wonderfully and kept us updated. Would definitely recommend Mei and would rebook again.”
“Brianna was wonderful! The girls were well taken care of & had no issues giving them their pills every morning. Our girls will be back for another stay — we are so lucky to have found her. Highly recommend!”

“Samantha took amazing care of Lauren. Daily updates with pictures and videos that showed how comfortable and happy my fur baby was at her home. Her food, play, and walk schedule was followed. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Lauren with her again.”

“Guojin was very communicative and kept me consistently updated with my puppy, Manjoo. He was caring, followed all my instructions, and most importantly, made communication seamless throughout the experience. I’ll definitely be booking again. Highly recommend! Thanks Quojin!”

“Our dog Solo stayed with Melissa over the July 4th holiday weekend. She took excellent care of him and sent texts to let us know how he was doing and multiple pictures every day. He looked like he felt quite a home at her place. She took him for a long walk every morning and he got many potty breaks during the day. He also really enjoyed sitting out on her balcony watching the squirrels. Melissa took excellent care of Solo and I would highly recommend her to take great care of your dog.”

“Hoa was great! Our dog was a happy pup staying with her. She had lots of toys for him to play with and puzzles to get treats! Very kind, loved all the pictures and videos she sent while we were away”

“Suzi always takes the best care of our baby… and she loves her as much as we do. Normally Penelope RUNS when we try to drop her off at a boarder or sitters but with Suzi she waltzes in like no big deal. Thank you Suzi! Our favorite sitter ever.”

“Lindsey was absolutely the best! She accepted my day of boarding for my two pups and I was so thankful. I can tell they were filled with love and care while there. They fit in nicely and she sent plenty of pics! I will definitely book her again. She is about 25 mins out from me but worth the drive to know your pups are in good hands. Thanks Lindsey! 😊”

“I absolutely loved her. She took such great care of our fur baby. My dog was happy on return. I was also sent pictures everyday. You and your dog will be happy here.”

“Wyatt is terrific! He took great care of our dog Toby while we were away and kept us updated with pictures. Toby got lots of love and enjoyed hanging out with Wyatt, Alien, and other dogs. Would definitely recommend Wyatt to anyone!”


“Absolutely perfect. My dog was welcomed into the family with open arms and had a wonderful week. Rachel sent me updates and photos every day, and it made me feel so much better about being away from my little girl. This is the only place my dog wants to be when she's away from home.”
“Jane was amazing! She shared very thorough updates every evening during Mickey’s stay along with photos and videos. Very well communicated and easy to reach out for any questions even before his stay. Thank you Jane for everything!! :)”

When I unexpectedly had to extend my trip, she was incredibly flexible and graciously continued caring for them, which gave me such peace of mind. I truly appreciated the updates and knowing that Princess Leia and Stella Bella were in such good hands. They were happy, well cared for, and clearly loved having Samantha look after them. Princess Leia and Stella Bella are going to miss you, Samantha! Thank you for everything—I would absolutely book with you again and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter. ❤️”

“Cynthia did an amazing job taking care of our two cats. Her patience and warmth won them over, even though they are usually very shy/nervous around new people. She played with them daily and even was able to give one of our cats a dose of his medicine. Cynthia was professional, punctual, and provided detailed, photo-filled updates. It was our first time leaving our cats in the care of a sitter and we could not have asked for a more positive experience. We highly recommend Cynthia to anyone looking for an experienced, caring, pet sitter!”

“Katherine was amazing with Coal and Vanilla! She was super responsive, kept us updated, and really took the time to play with them and make them both feel loved. We came home to happy kittens. Highly recommend and will definitely book her again!”


“Manrong went above and beyond in caring for and feeding Moonbeam our cat while we were out of town for a few days. She was very thorough in cleaning out dishes, refilling fresh water, mealtimes, playtime, and did her utmost to open/close shades and maintain a great home environment every time she stopped by to take care of MB. She also gained MB’s trust each day. She was punctual, communicative, and asked questions/ shared updates frequently. She gave us so much of peace of mind! I would recommend her as one of the best petsitter’s we have come across!”

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and have over 10 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and look after their pets. I’m also comfortable caring for and helping train puppies, including basic commands, routines, and house training. I have had multiple elderly dogs which I have administered medications of all sorts to. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for pets throughout the week. I’m available for house sitting and will make sure each pet receives consistent attention, walks, playtime, and care around my work schedule. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure they stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, walking, and household instructions, keep doors and gates secure, and provide regular updates so owners know their pets are safe and happy.
“Teju communicates extremely well and showed true care towards my cat. They went above and beyond while I was away and I would absolutely love to rebook them in the future.”

About: Dogs have always been an important part of my life. I cared for my Miniature Schnauzer for many years, including times when he required extra care due to health issues. That experience taught me patience, responsibility, and the importance of understanding each dog’s unique needs. I spend most of my time at home, allowing me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I do my best to maintain each dog’s normal routine so they feel comfortable during their stay. ✨ What you can expect: 🐾 Personalized Care: I keep the number of bookings limited so each dog receives plenty of affection, supervision, and individual attention. Exclusive one-on-one care may also be available upon request. 🏡 Easy Yard Access: Our living space connects directly to the yard. Since the yard is unfenced, dogs are always leashed and supervised during outdoor time. 📸 Frequent Daily Updates: I love sending plenty of photos and videos throughout the day so you can see how your pup is doing.

About: My name is Abigail, but prefer to go by Abby. I’ve taken care of dogs throughout my entire life and I’m dedicated to making every dog be safe and happy. I’m currently a volunteer at the Fairfax County Animal Shelter where I walk dogs, clean up after them, and supervise the dogs at play. But I’m trying to work up and get hired as a full-fledged dog daycare attendant at an official facility. I currently live with my mom and younger brother, so even if I have to leave to run errands, my family is guaranteed to keep company for all pets unless we all have to leave for work. I’m available through any day of the week or weekend. Becoming a dog sitter is my passion and dream job so I will be on call at any time or day. I currently have no pets and do not have a fenced in yard. If needed, I can crate dogs and keep them on a leash when outdoors.

My family had a golden doodle for the last 10 years of life, moving to Virginia, I haven’t been able to spend much time with him and he has since passed. While I don’t see myself getting a dog anytime soon, I’d love to spend my free time loving on dogs who need some extra company while their owners are out!

I hope you take interest in my profile, feel free to text or call me at any time, I usually respond right away or within the hour. Thank you! Im currently working full-time until 3pm. I can take your dog out for a walk during afternoons or evenings, most weekends can work as well! I also have summers off for me free time to spend time with your animals!
