“Jennifer and her family were absolutely amazing to work with and took great care of my dog. Her updates were above and beyond and I can tell my puppy have a fabulous weekend. Definitely plan to book with her again.”
“Having Lorena keep our dogs was a great experience for us and more importantly, our dogs. They were treated as part of their family and made friends with them and the other dogs. Their home lay-out is so nice for the dogs to have private quiet time when wanted and mingle as well. Can't say enough good things about our experience.”
“She was extremely inviting and treated our lil pup as if he was her own. I booked based on her reviews and the fact she has a frenchie of her own. She kept us up to date with plenty of photos and videos while we were away. He seemed to feel right at home which was great! Whenever we decide on our next trip, we’ll def be looking to see if she has availability.”
About: Large fenced in backyard. Daily walks when weather cooperates (often times twice a day). We have a sweet old pup who still loves to play and would love a friend. We have had dogs all our lives and give lots of love. Will send pics daily or more often as desired. Our two boys are very sweet to dogs and are excited for more pups to play with and cuddle. I work from home and get up super early so I have time for walks before work. Work is flexible so I can care for the pup(s) as needed throughout the day. My 8 year old son gets home from school at 3 and would love a pup to play or hang out with. I have a large fenced in backyard and a sweet old pup who still likes to play and would love the company. Our house is large and spacious and we have a nice soft couch where our dog loves to lay. We have dog beds, dog bowls, and leashes in case you need to borrow ours. We offer lots of love and play time. Our two boys (8 and 5) have endless energy for playing with dogs and are very sweet with them. Daily walks (often times twice a day) if weather allows.
“Hanna was amazing with my dog Stella! Stella sometimes takes a while to warm up to strangers, but she felt at home with Hanna immediately. Hanna sent me updates throughout the weekend, including pictures and videos. She took Stella for walks in the woods, played with her and even set up a kiddie pool for her. I highly recommend Hanna!”
“I am so happy that I booked with Peyton! I was thankful that she was able to accommodate my last minute booking. She is very kind and she kept me informed by sending me pictures and updates, which I appreciated. My dogs were very happy and had a good time playing!”
“Susan and Josh were wonderful with our Lab, Abby! They were very responsive throughout the booking process and during Abby’s stay with their family. We received many photos and they quickly answered messages. They have a secure yard, a clean home and cared very well for Abby. I will definitely book with them in the future.”
“Charlotte and her family take in Teddy as one of their own. She sends pictures and messages that make it clear he is happy and loved. I have recommended her to a few people now. She is so friendly, communicative, and competent. I can’t say enough good things. Teddy comes home tired too! Always a plus!”
“Kristen was an absolute pleasure to work with and did an awesome job at caring for my two dogs while we were on vacation. She was flexible with times for pick up and drop off and gave me daily updates on how the dogs were doing. I'm surprised my dogs would even get in the car to come home since they had such a good time staying at her place! Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a rover sitter for their pet!”
“Jeanette was amazing with my babies. She was very nice and responsive and sent lots of pictures. My puppies seemed like they had a lot of fun. Will definitely be coming back again for future puppy sitting needs.”
“Maria took care of my labrador dog over the weekend and was very communicative the entire time by sending me updates and pictures of my dog having the best time! Maria also kindly gifted my dog the toy that he played with the most at her house :) we’d definitely book again!”
“We had a great experience with Yeny and Ray! They were wonderful with our Furbaby, Kyon. We received lots of sweet and funny photo updates that perfectly captured his personality. It’s clear he was well loved and cared for.. he misses them already! We’re looking forward to booking with them again. Highly recommend!”
About: Hello I am Maura! I grew up in a very large family and we always had a dog. I have had four dogs of my own. I have done pet sitting and fostering for families, friends and a dog rescue organization. My husband and I are passionate dog lovers with 30 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and ages. I'm reliable, responsible, and dedicated to providing a safe and loving environment for your furry family member. I’ve always been drawn to dogs and spent years volunteering for a dog rescue organization where I gained valuable experience in caring for dogs with a variety of needs. My husband volunteered with me and together we made several trips down south in a large van to rescue puppies from puppy mills or older dogs scheduled to be euthanized for sitting in shelter too long. I offer in-home pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-ins, and I'm happy to administer medication, provide playtime, and ensure your dog's comfort and well-being. I have a strong understanding of dog behavior and am happy to provide personalized care based on your dog's individual needs. My hasband and I are both home every day. I am available to care for dogs day or night. We are very active and include dogs in our daily life along the Potomac River. Spending time in the yard and walking around the neighborhood are part of my daily routine. My home is pet friendly with a large, fenced yard. Dogs are treated as family members. I am open minded and will listen carefully to any specific instructions provided to me for your furry friend.
“Echo loved all of the members (2 and 4 footed) of the family! Even though they had a lot going on, Jennifer let me know how things were going and was so sweet and considerate of his special food and supplements and his separation anxiety. I am so grateful that I found ya'll and that you are nearby. Thank you so much!”
“Cyndi was absolutely wonderful with my dog Sweet Potato. She sent pictures and videos while I was gone, which made me so happy she was being well cared for.

She treated my dog as if it were her own and I would highly recommend to anyone searching for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“Ronda is amazing, patient, and very caring. She kept my puppy with great care, took him on walks, and sent many pictures timely. We will definitely go back to her next time onwards. Highly recommended.”
“Marah provided exceptional care for our Kion. Kion instantly connected with her and her family. Throughout his stay, Marah kept us updated with regular messages and photos. She treated Kion as if he were her own, showering him with the same love, cuddles, and attention he receives at home. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be using her services again in the future. Highly recommend Marah for anyone in need of a caring and reliable pet sitter!”

“TOP ENDORSEMENT: Pet care is Kimberly's career. This dedication & training are evident in her professional in-person demeanor and ease with animals. Kimberly sat my two male, semi-feral cats for a week and I couldn't be happier with her care. Food, water, and litterbox cleaning was EXACTLY as I asked. The aloof, don't-touch-me cat now adores her. She was even kind enough to water my money tree and stack my mail. Her expertise and depth of experience enabled me to travel completely WORRY FREE. Highly recommend!”
“Jessica is truly AMAZING! Her rover cards were very thorough with photos of my cats and she was very responsive to messages. We will definitely book her again.”
“Rachael watched our fur babies doing our wedding and honeymoon and it was one less thing for me to worry about! I knew they were in great hands and got sweet pictures everyday!”
“Randi went above and beyond to make sure our animals were taken care of. She even voluntarily took home a chick that could not walk and fixed it's leg so it can get around on its own now. She also watered our plants and brought in mail while we were gone. She seems to know a lot about dogs and is a wealth of info on chickens, as well. Some of my chickens were not doing so well and thanks to her advice, they are looking healthier. I'd highly recommend her.”
“Rochelle absolutely exceeded all my expectations. I received so many lovely updates while I was away, and she communicated with me about everything. This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit uncertain, but it was such a wonderful experience. We will most definitely be working with Rochelle again, and I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Victoria was wonderful in taking care of the kittens! She was on time everyday and sent wonderful updates of the babes. They were well loved and cared for we are so grateful!”
“Virginia went above and beyond. We adore the pictures and videos she sends of our girls. She did an amazing job getting our diabetic cat’s blood sugars and handling her many meds. The cats clearly love her company. Would 100% recommend and we will be using her again.”

“Veronica was an absolutely amazing cat-sitter, the best. She consistently sent me updates and photos and was very responsive to my texts. She was also so so patient with my shy cat, making sure to leave him treats and slowly approaching him while respecting his space. I would recommend her services to anyone and will definitely work with her again!”
“She was very nice and my cat seemed to really like her. We were nervous to leave him alone for so long but seeing how well he warmed up to her really eased our nerves.”

About: As an animal lovers, I promise to treat your pet like my own. They’ll be in good hands with me for the duration of their stay. My dog has a strict routine as I believe taking care of pers works better with a specific schedule. He wakes up, gets fed, gets taken out, is given treats, among everything else at the same time. Every day. I work from home and that makes it easy to adjust our schedule. My dog gets taken out early in the morning and fed. After he then gets taken back out later that morning. In addition, we spend some time outside in the afternoon during lunch. In the evening, he’s fed and taken back out for a bit. Later at night, he’s taken out once more and given a dental treat before bed time.
“Yeny was kind enough to do a list minute Day Care for us on our Anniversary. Easy drop off and pick up. She was walking her as we arrived to pick up and passed them..! She seemed happy and exercised. The whole family seems to participate in the care of the animals. Yeny took the time to hand feed her a bit at her first dinner away from home to get her started. She took to the time to talk about her day with our pup before we left. It seems to be a caring environment. We will definitely use her again.”
“Elizabeth was amazing with Tater. He’s a puppy and, while the goodest of boys, takes some energy and a little patience. She even exposed him to her cat and gave us a full report on how he did with Miso so we’d know for future bookings. She was super flexible with our timing heading to/from Story Land with the kiddos and kept us up to date on what our littlest dude was up to while we were crushing the Polarcoaster.”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life—seriously, rabbits to goats, and everything in between. Right now I care for dogs, chickens, rabbits, and a cat, and I also have experience pet sitting for families from when I was in high school. In my 20s, I’m excited to help other animal owners get to enjoy a vacation or even a little break like a date night, without having to worry. My love for animals really shows, and I’m totally comfortable with both big dogs and smaller ones—I’m happy to care for every breed. I’m willing to have animals stay at my home, but they absolutely need to be comfortable around other animals. I can also drive to your place and stay at your home if that’s what you prefer. I work from home, so I’m available as often as you need me, and if you need me to stay overnight to watch your furry friend, I can definitely arrange that. With all that said, I’m excited to help in any way I can—because I genuinely love what I do! I’m currently working from home as a Sales Executive at a HR company. I take my pups out every 2 hours for potty breaks and to throw the ball for my very active GSD dog. I get off around 5:30PM M-F. So if you need me to stay at your home to watch your pets while I work throughout the day- that’s no problem! Or I can most definitely take breaks throughout the day to come take your animal out and/or just give some snuggles! I am free on the weekends and can make really anything work. Just give me a time and place and I’ll be there! I have a huge back yard and plenty of space for your dog to run around! It is not fenced, so must have good recall or I can just walk them on a leash. If your dog is coming over to my house they must be good with other animals. I have a male Belgian tervuren (fixed) who’s pretty shy at first, but warms up quickly and would love a play buddy! And then I have a male Dachshund (fixed) who sleeps all day. I do crate my dogs while I’m away, and they can be crated just to give your pet some space to decompress. My cat is in a separate room so she will be away as well.
About: Whether I am doing drop-in visits, dog walking or boarding your fur babes, they truly become part of my family. I have always held a deep affinity and bonding affection for animals, and my primary goal is to provide a seamless, stress-free environment for them while you are away. Efficient, loving care of your pets is what I will provide. & your peace of mind will be ensured. As a Registered Nurse, I bring a high level of clinical observation, assessment, calmness, and safety to my pet care. I also worked part-time in a veterinary practice earlier in my career, giving me a solid foundation in animal handling and wellness. I have much experience with my own pets past & present whom I have provided post-surgical care, administered medications & administered insulin injections. I have also administered subcutaneous IV fluids for several of my elderly cats in renal failure. I have loved all of my pets over the years, which included dogs, cats & guinea pigs! You can trust me with your dogs, cats or small animals. I’m currently retired with plans to work PT in 2027. For now I am “ free” to devote my time to your pets as needed. I have a very gentle & friendly rescued Beagle/ Foxhound who enjoys running & romping with playmates in my large fully fenced yard. I have a friendly, funny, curious 2 y/o tabby cat & a curmudgeon 17 y/o Tortie cat who sticks to herself mostly or lounges on her “Thrones” & observes her domain!

I’m already home throughout the day, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and consistent care without long periods alone. My training background also means I understand dog behavior, routines, and safety, so your pet gets both loving care and structured supervision in a calm, home-based environment. When pets stay in my home, they become part of my daily routine and are treated like family. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment with plenty of supervised playtime, regular potty breaks, and time to relax. I follow each pet’s feeding schedule and any special instructions closely, including medications if needed.

About: I’ve dog sat for many clients before not in the Rover app. I enjoy being able to take the animals on walks and playing with them! I’m very kind to animals and love meeting different breeds! I have a dog and 4 cats of my own, so I’m very much used to taking care of animals! Most of my cats are indoors but I do have a dog that I take on walks. I’m currently looking for a full time job to replace my current job. I am a senior in college but do it all online so I am very flexible. I always try to make a pet feel as comfortable as possible around me. I’m not an overly hyper person so I wouldn’t make them nervous in that way. I usually come in, sit down, and let them get used to me and make sure they’re okay to get around me.
About: Hi! My name is Olivia, and I’ve been caring for dogs and animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up around pets gave me a natural love for animals, and over the years I’ve helped care for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I have experience with walking, feeding, playtime, administering medications, and maintaining each pet’s normal routine to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I give every animal. I treat every pet like family and truly enjoy spending time with them, whether that means long walks, playing fetch, or simply keeping them company in their home. I currently have a very open and flexible schedule while I wait to begin my career as an Emergency Medicine Physician Assistant in late August. Because of this, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets throughout the day. My flexible availability allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, and last-minute scheduling needs whenever possible. I love staying active, so spending time outdoors walking and caring for dogs is something I genuinely enjoy during this transition period before starting work. Providing a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment for pets is my top priority. I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I always strive to create a calm, dependable, and comfortable experience for both pets and owners. I live in a pet-friendly environment with plenty of safe areas for walks and outdoor time, and I carefully follow each owner’s home instructions regarding routines, medications, feeding schedules, and special needs. I’m attentive, responsible, and communicative, and I’ll always make sure your pet receives the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. 🐾

“Jennifer and her family were absolutely amazing to work with and took great care of my dog. Her updates were above and beyond and I can tell my puppy have a fabulous weekend. Definitely plan to book with her again.”
“Having Lorena keep our dogs was a great experience for us and more importantly, our dogs. They were treated as part of their family and made friends with them and the other dogs. Their home lay-out is so nice for the dogs to have private quiet time when wanted and mingle as well. Can't say enough good things about our experience.”
“She was extremely inviting and treated our lil pup as if he was her own. I booked based on her reviews and the fact she has a frenchie of her own. She kept us up to date with plenty of photos and videos while we were away. He seemed to feel right at home which was great! Whenever we decide on our next trip, we’ll def be looking to see if she has availability.”
About: Large fenced in backyard. Daily walks when weather cooperates (often times twice a day). We have a sweet old pup who still loves to play and would love a friend. We have had dogs all our lives and give lots of love. Will send pics daily or more often as desired. Our two boys are very sweet to dogs and are excited for more pups to play with and cuddle. I work from home and get up super early so I have time for walks before work. Work is flexible so I can care for the pup(s) as needed throughout the day. My 8 year old son gets home from school at 3 and would love a pup to play or hang out with. I have a large fenced in backyard and a sweet old pup who still likes to play and would love the company. Our house is large and spacious and we have a nice soft couch where our dog loves to lay. We have dog beds, dog bowls, and leashes in case you need to borrow ours. We offer lots of love and play time. Our two boys (8 and 5) have endless energy for playing with dogs and are very sweet with them. Daily walks (often times twice a day) if weather allows.
“Hanna was amazing with my dog Stella! Stella sometimes takes a while to warm up to strangers, but she felt at home with Hanna immediately. Hanna sent me updates throughout the weekend, including pictures and videos. She took Stella for walks in the woods, played with her and even set up a kiddie pool for her. I highly recommend Hanna!”
“I am so happy that I booked with Peyton! I was thankful that she was able to accommodate my last minute booking. She is very kind and she kept me informed by sending me pictures and updates, which I appreciated. My dogs were very happy and had a good time playing!”
“Susan and Josh were wonderful with our Lab, Abby! They were very responsive throughout the booking process and during Abby’s stay with their family. We received many photos and they quickly answered messages. They have a secure yard, a clean home and cared very well for Abby. I will definitely book with them in the future.”
“Charlotte and her family take in Teddy as one of their own. She sends pictures and messages that make it clear he is happy and loved. I have recommended her to a few people now. She is so friendly, communicative, and competent. I can’t say enough good things. Teddy comes home tired too! Always a plus!”
“Kristen was an absolute pleasure to work with and did an awesome job at caring for my two dogs while we were on vacation. She was flexible with times for pick up and drop off and gave me daily updates on how the dogs were doing. I'm surprised my dogs would even get in the car to come home since they had such a good time staying at her place! Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a rover sitter for their pet!”
“Jeanette was amazing with my babies. She was very nice and responsive and sent lots of pictures. My puppies seemed like they had a lot of fun. Will definitely be coming back again for future puppy sitting needs.”
“Maria took care of my labrador dog over the weekend and was very communicative the entire time by sending me updates and pictures of my dog having the best time! Maria also kindly gifted my dog the toy that he played with the most at her house :) we’d definitely book again!”
“We had a great experience with Yeny and Ray! They were wonderful with our Furbaby, Kyon. We received lots of sweet and funny photo updates that perfectly captured his personality. It’s clear he was well loved and cared for.. he misses them already! We’re looking forward to booking with them again. Highly recommend!”
About: Hello I am Maura! I grew up in a very large family and we always had a dog. I have had four dogs of my own. I have done pet sitting and fostering for families, friends and a dog rescue organization. My husband and I are passionate dog lovers with 30 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and ages. I'm reliable, responsible, and dedicated to providing a safe and loving environment for your furry family member. I’ve always been drawn to dogs and spent years volunteering for a dog rescue organization where I gained valuable experience in caring for dogs with a variety of needs. My husband volunteered with me and together we made several trips down south in a large van to rescue puppies from puppy mills or older dogs scheduled to be euthanized for sitting in shelter too long. I offer in-home pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-ins, and I'm happy to administer medication, provide playtime, and ensure your dog's comfort and well-being. I have a strong understanding of dog behavior and am happy to provide personalized care based on your dog's individual needs. My hasband and I are both home every day. I am available to care for dogs day or night. We are very active and include dogs in our daily life along the Potomac River. Spending time in the yard and walking around the neighborhood are part of my daily routine. My home is pet friendly with a large, fenced yard. Dogs are treated as family members. I am open minded and will listen carefully to any specific instructions provided to me for your furry friend.
“Echo loved all of the members (2 and 4 footed) of the family! Even though they had a lot going on, Jennifer let me know how things were going and was so sweet and considerate of his special food and supplements and his separation anxiety. I am so grateful that I found ya'll and that you are nearby. Thank you so much!”
“Cyndi was absolutely wonderful with my dog Sweet Potato. She sent pictures and videos while I was gone, which made me so happy she was being well cared for. This was the longest I have ever left my dog and I felt no fear knowing my dog was in such great hands. She treated my dog as if it were her own and I would highly recommend to anyone searching for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“Marah provided exceptional care for our Kion. Kion instantly connected with her and her family. Throughout his stay, Marah kept us updated with regular messages and photos. She treated Kion as if he were her own, showering him with the same love, cuddles, and attention he receives at home. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be using her services again in the future. Highly recommend Marah for anyone in need of a caring and reliable pet sitter!”
“Chris has alway been amazing!!! Great communication and flexibility. This is our third or fourth time booking and it won’t be our last!!! Thank you so much for always taking good care of Gunner!!!”
“Paprika had another wonderful stay with Sonja & Phil! She absolutely loves them and they always give us such a peace of mind when our dog stays with them.”
“Ashley did a fantastic job dog sitting Emma for me! Ashley was extremely professional and made sure to give me updates daily, including pictures of Emma. Ashley was happy to fulfill Emma’s daily routines as well as some extra care and attention. Thank you, Ashley!”
