“Dana was amazing with our dogs! They were only there for half a day while we went to a wedding, but she sent plenty of updates during this time which I appreciated. She has a really nice backyard, and I could tell my dogs really enjoyed themselves. Dana was also super flexible with pickup and drop-off. I would book with her again if I were ever in the area.”
“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.”
“Jennifer was very quick to respond and sent me lots of pictures of my pup 😁 which I really appreciated and made me feel better since it was our first time using her. We will be doing it again. 🫶🏼”
“Without exaggeration, Cori is the best sitter I have ever worked with. She took amazing care of my pup and maintained constant communication with me throughout, sending plenty of pictures and messages to keep me updated. She kept my dog active and engaged, and even took her on several activities outside the home (discussed during our first meet and greet), so it was almost like my pup was on a vacation of her own. It's also worth mentioning that my dog was dealing with an upset stomach when I brought her to Cori. Not only did Cori continue the boiled chicken diet I gave her, she made additional white rice to sooth my pup's stomach when her regular food wouldn't sit well. I would absolutely recommend Cori as a sitter.”
“Our Duke can be a little high maintenance, but Tanine took him in and made him feel comfortable during his stay. Tanine, her kids, and the other dogs were all great to him. He seemed to really enjoy his stay. Thanks!!!”
“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!”
“Whitney is amazing! She was so sweet to our high energy dog, took her on lots of walks, spent lots of time outside with her, and even ran with her! We would use her again without hesitation!! Seeing fun pics of our puppy everyday while we were away was so reassuring that she was in great hands!! Thanks Whitney!!”
“Heather has a wonderful farmette-style setting for pet sitting, with great accommodations inside and outside! Our pup turned out to be very anxious about being left somewhere new, but Heather was extremely caring and interested in making him feel as comfortable as possible. Her efforts allowed him to finally relax and enjoy his stay without incident. We will definitely use Heather again when needed :)”
“This experience was amazing! My doggies came home sooo happy and got so much outside play time. She was so sweet and responsive. I hope to have the opportunity to use her for our next trip.”
“This is the first time I have used Rover and I'm thankful this app is out there. Jocelyn B. was wonderful. I have one dog that is easy and the other can be a handful. I was thankful that I could leave for the weekend and not worry.”
“Our old pup absolutely loves staying with Julie’s family. She takes wonderful care of him, navigating his picky eating and various joint medications. He comes home so tired - from both the outdoor time and the social interactions, I am sure. I trust Julie completely with his care and will continue to use her for our dog sitting needs as long as she will have us.”
“Tara was amazing with my dogs! My little dog can be anxious when she is away from me and my big dog can be excitable but she was able to handle both so well! She sent lots of pictures so I knew how my puppies were doing and I could see how well both were adjusting! She took them on outings, let them play outside a lot, and gave them both so much love and cuddles! Honestly could not have asked for a better experience and I would highly recommend her for your puppies!!”
“Maria was wonderful to work with and took very good care of my male lab while I was on a four-day trip. I will book with her again on Rover and highly recommend her.”
“This was the most effortless experience I have ever had in having someone take care of my two dogs. From the beginning request to the dropping off of my dogs back home, it was so over the top pleasant and easy. I can’t wait to have Chaoran and her family take care of my dogs again!!”
“Amber is an amazing caregiver for pets. She is dedicated and professional. She provides caring services and she lets you know how your pet is performing. She treats all pets like they are hers. I had no worries when Nugget was there for four days. She has ample space to make every pet comfortable. I highly recommend Amber for your boarding needs.”
“Rebekah watched Jane while I was on a 10 day vacation. Everyday I received photo and video updates on how Jane was doing. It really helped me enjoy my trip knowing she was happy and well cared for. Rebekah is very professional and does an exceptional job!!!”

“Stephanie was amazing! It was our first time hiring a pet sitter, and she did everything possible to ease our minds. We came home to full food dishes, fresh water bowls, and happy cats. I especially loved the updates with pictures!”
“Hannah provided incredible care to our three kitties! One of our cats is slow to warm and Hannah did an amazing job winning her over. So appreciate all the detailed attention she devoted to taking care of our crew while we were away for an extended period of time! Would highly recommend!”
“Katie watched our cat and did some house sitting for several days, and she did an amazing job! She sent picture updates that gave me so much peace of mind, and he was clearly happy, playful, and well cared for. She followed all his routines, kept everything tidy, and was great at communicating. I’d definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again!! 10/10!”

“Madison is superb. She’s incredibly responsive and responsible. We were nervous about leaving our pups behind and concerned we might have trouble finding someone brave AND loving enough to care for the bully breed. Madison didn’t flinch and our dogs took to her immediately. She is professional, kind, punctual, caring, and will even send photos, which is incredibly thoughtful and reassuring. We won’t hesitate to rely on Madison in the future and highly recommend her services to others.”

You can feel confident that your pets are well cared for—she recently looked after several cats across two households and managed everything smoothly over the holidays. I’m very grateful for the care and attention she gave my babies and would absolutely book her again.”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life. They truly are a man’s bestfriend. At home I have a beautiful white lab, he is 95lbs of pure love thinking he’s a lapdog. I also have a King Charles Cavalier that is the princess of the house. She is so happy and spunky and keeps us all laughing. Previously I have owned Cocker Spaniels, other Labs and a Maltese. I started dogsitting when I was 11 years old. I had just arrived at my grandparents house and I saw this little dog wandering around and he ran right to me and I saw the owner walking towards me up the road. The puppy let me pick him up and we walked all the way to the owner. He and his wife were pilots so whenever they were flying I was working and I was ecstatic to have my first job looking after their two dogs. Through the years I’ve done Bathing, walks, feeding, medications, shots , vet trips, etc. I truly love dogs and seeing them happy, and giving their families peace of mind that their beloved pups will be well loved while they are gone. I send texts and pictures of each visit and keep in communication with the family. If you choose to trust me with your four legged family member I guarantee they will be well taken care of and loved. I am a teacher so I have Summers to offer. My Schedule throughout the school year fills up so book in advance because I also do tutoring, and nannying throughout the week. I would love to meet you and your pup. Just reach out! I will not be able to have any dogs in my home personally because of home owner restrictions. In the clients home I would provide feelings, walks, medication, or whatever else the puppy would need. If there is a history of dogfights or biting I am not the person for you.

I would prefer to stay in your home so that the fur kid will be more comfortable and maybe it will help with any separation anxiety. I do not mind bringing in the mail or any other task that may be similar.

“Dana was amazing with our dogs! They were only there for half a day while we went to a wedding, but she sent plenty of updates during this time which I appreciated. She has a really nice backyard, and I could tell my dogs really enjoyed themselves. Dana was also super flexible with pickup and drop-off. I would book with her again if I were ever in the area.”
“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.”
“Jennifer was very quick to respond and sent me lots of pictures of my pup 😁 which I really appreciated and made me feel better since it was our first time using her. We will be doing it again. 🫶🏼”
“Without exaggeration, Cori is the best sitter I have ever worked with. She took amazing care of my pup and maintained constant communication with me throughout, sending plenty of pictures and messages to keep me updated. She kept my dog active and engaged, and even took her on several activities outside the home (discussed during our first meet and greet), so it was almost like my pup was on a vacation of her own. It's also worth mentioning that my dog was dealing with an upset stomach when I brought her to Cori. Not only did Cori continue the boiled chicken diet I gave her, she made additional white rice to sooth my pup's stomach when her regular food wouldn't sit well. I would absolutely recommend Cori as a sitter.”
“Our Duke can be a little high maintenance, but Tanine took him in and made him feel comfortable during his stay. Tanine, her kids, and the other dogs were all great to him. He seemed to really enjoy his stay. Thanks!!!”
“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!”
“Whitney is amazing! She was so sweet to our high energy dog, took her on lots of walks, spent lots of time outside with her, and even ran with her! We would use her again without hesitation!! Seeing fun pics of our puppy everyday while we were away was so reassuring that she was in great hands!! Thanks Whitney!!”
“Heather has a wonderful farmette-style setting for pet sitting, with great accommodations inside and outside! Our pup turned out to be very anxious about being left somewhere new, but Heather was extremely caring and interested in making him feel as comfortable as possible. Her efforts allowed him to finally relax and enjoy his stay without incident. We will definitely use Heather again when needed :)”
“This experience was amazing! My doggies came home sooo happy and got so much outside play time. She was so sweet and responsive. I hope to have the opportunity to use her for our next trip.”
“This is the first time I have used Rover and I'm thankful this app is out there. Jocelyn B. was wonderful. I have one dog that is easy and the other can be a handful. I was thankful that I could leave for the weekend and not worry.”
“Our old pup absolutely loves staying with Julie’s family. She takes wonderful care of him, navigating his picky eating and various joint medications. He comes home so tired - from both the outdoor time and the social interactions, I am sure. I trust Julie completely with his care and will continue to use her for our dog sitting needs as long as she will have us.”
“Tara was amazing with my dogs! My little dog can be anxious when she is away from me and my big dog can be excitable but she was able to handle both so well! She sent lots of pictures so I knew how my puppies were doing and I could see how well both were adjusting! She took them on outings, let them play outside a lot, and gave them both so much love and cuddles! Honestly could not have asked for a better experience and I would highly recommend her for your puppies!!”
“Maria was wonderful to work with and took very good care of my male lab while I was on a four-day trip. I will book with her again on Rover and highly recommend her.”
“This was the most effortless experience I have ever had in having someone take care of my two dogs. From the beginning request to the dropping off of my dogs back home, it was so over the top pleasant and easy. I can’t wait to have Chaoran and her family take care of my dogs again!!”
“This was our second time using Jaime, Mike and their family, and once again they took exceptional care of our dog. They gave her so much love, attention, and affection, and the daily updates and photos were wonderful. It was clear from every picture that she was having an amazing time and truly living her best life! Our dog has IVDD, so we have to be careful about limiting jumping and protecting her back. They were incredibly accommodating with the extra equipment we brought, including stairs for the sofa and a gate to block access to stairs. Their willingness to help us maintain her routine and keep her safe gave us tremendous peace of mind. Mike even took the time to repair the broken dog crate we brought, which was such a thoughtful and unexpected gesture. We are so grateful to have found such a caring, attentive family to look after our sweet girl. We would absolutely recommend them and will continue to book with them in the future!”
“Stacie does such a wonderful job loving our two pups as if they were her own. They always come back happy and exhausted, in the best way! She is definitely our first choice when we need to travel or be away from our dogs.”
“Rachel is Snoopy’s home away from home. He is always well cared for and very happy. Rachel sends regular pictures and updates while we are away. She takes excellent care of him and is very patient with my senior guy who has dietary needs and takes daily medications. She is always my go to sitter!”
“Scott and Sarah are the best dog sitters! Cassie loves visiting them. They are super attentive, great with communication, and truly it is a home away from home for Cassie. This was our third visit with them and we will keep using them as needed. Do not hesitate to book with them.”
