“Booking with Kristen through Rover was a seamless and easy process. Kristen’s years of experience caring for animals was obvious from the start. We could not have been happier with her care for our dog, Cash. Cash loves playing with other dogs and he had lots of time to do so in large, fenced in, picturesque fields. Thank you, Kristen!”
“Anahita was a life saver for me this past weekend. She was able to care for Sammy with last minute notice, which I really appreciated. I like the fact that she has other dogs because Sammy is very social and likes to play with other dogs. Apparently he got along with her dogs just fine and that makes me happy. He needed some socialization. She sent photos throughout Sammy’s stay in her home. When I picked Sammy up the next day, he seemed very calm and relaxed. He was pretty calm the rest of the evening which was great. I expected a little anxiety when I returned but Sammy seemed peaceful on the drive back home. I think that Anahita’s calm, caring and peaceful personality played a huge part. I appreciate that so much. She pays attention to details that are important to the dog for a successful stay, but is not overly anxious. Thank you so much, Anahita, for caring for Sammy for me. I was able to relax and have a great overnight trip without worrying about Sammy! We will be repeat customers for sure!”
“Katherine took amazing care of Luna. We got regular pictures of her everyday. She played frisbee with her and walked her. I was impressed with her knowledge of handling dogs right off the bat. We will definitely look to use Katherine for pet sitting again and I would recommend her to anyone!!!”
“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.”
“Barbara took amazing care of my anxious dog. She provided daily updates of how my dog was adjusting. Thankfully, my dog adjusted quickly and had a wonderful time playing with Dobby and the daycare dogs. I was only a little worried my dog wouldn't want to go home because Barbara took such great care of her.”
“Teddy just came home from spending 3 nights with Ali and her family. When I picked him up he was all brushed out and handsome and he came home with a surprise toy that Ali gave him. These little extras separate her from other pet sitters. When he got home he was a bit out of sorts, but I think he just misses playing with her daughter and all the extra attention he got. I highly recommend Ali's pet sitting services.”
“Sarah was a fabulous host with a beautiful fenced in yard and home. She sent photos of Rocky and her kids which were so cute. Great communication throughout the stay and super convenient to wineries, tap rooms and Historic Rosemont Manor. Would highly recommend!”
“Makie took such great care of our puppy while out of town for a week. We are very pleased and happy to have found someone who loves our little one and had no problems with special requests/ instruction. THANK YOU MAKIE!”
“We couldn't be happier with the care Baxter received from Elisa and James! Since this was our first time leaving Baxter with them, we were a little nervous, especially since Baxter was staying for only two days. But they immediately made us feel comfortable and reassured us that Baxter was in good hands. Throughout his stay, Elisa and James kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was wonderful seeing Baxter looking happy, relaxed, and comfortable. They were attentive to his needs, gave him plenty of love and attention, and made sure he was well cared for. Thank you, Elisa and James, for taking such wonderful care of Baxter and making his first stay with you such a positive experience. We truly appreciate the updates, love, and attention you gave him. We're so glad we found someone we can trust, and we would definitely book with you again!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Tara provided for my husky, Rocky! Huskies can be a handful, but she handled him perfectly — keeping him exercised, happy, and well-loved while she was boarding him. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. When I picked him up, Rocky was calm, clean, and clearly well cared for.”
“We always feel reassured that our pup is taken care of and they’re happy to have her. Daisy is treated like the princess she is. I highly recommend their family to watch your beloved pets.”
“Leslie is incredibly kind and attentive. She took my dog out for a lot of exercise, and kept him happy and safe while I was away. She provided plenty of photos and video updates and followed instructions to a T. She has a big backyard and comfortable looking house in a quiet neighborhood. My dog is usually pretty shy and can take a long time to warm up to new sitters, but he was right at home with Leslie. I would definitely recommend her to others, and plan to book with her again in the future.”
“Lori was amazing and the pup was well taken care of, it was great knowing our pup was in good hands, we got updates through out the weekend, would recommend Lori to EVERYONE! :)”
“Tetiana was great! Everything from reservation to drop off and pick up was smooth. She payed attention to my instructions and took a great care of my dog. I really appreciate daily updates with photos.”
“Thank you so much for taking great care of Ahsoka. She was immediately comfortable with you and at your home. We really appreciate the pics you send while we are gone. We will definitely book again.”
“We have a Husky (Kalea) and she gets separation anxiety so we needed to find a home where she wasn’t crated. Kelly and her family are amazing with her and she became part of their family. Kelly sent me updates daily with photos and we could tell that Kalea was relaxed and having fun. Kelly has a big yard and a sweet little dog PJ that got along very well with Kalea. The whole experience was perfect and we were able to go away knowing Kalea was happy. Thank you Kelly!”
“Alicia and her boys made my pups so comfortable, I wasn't sure they'd want to come home with me after the five day stay! She shared pictures and updates that warmed my heart and put my mind at ease for their first-ever stay away from home. I will definitely rebook with her in the future and highly, highly recommend her to others.”

“Isabelle did a great job caring for our dog, cat, and rabbit. She took the time to make sure they were well cared for and happy and gave us updates all along the way. Would highly recommend!”
“Erin did a wonderful job taking care of our cat, Mia! Erin is very sweet and Mia liked her a lot (which says something!) Would definitely recommend Erin for anyone needing pet sitting.”
“I would highly recommend working with Margaret. She went above and beyond for our 2 cats while we were out of town. She was able to administer medication to our older cat and sent detailed daily updates with how they were doing. She so clearly cares about all animals and it shines through in her work. Leaving your pets for any amount of time is difficult, but in Margaret's care you can be confident they are well cared for.”
“Really appreciated Mackenzie looking after my 2 cats while we were on vacation! She kept me updated on when she dropped in and when I got home everything was exactly as I wanted! Will definitely have her back :)”
“Courtney watched my two cats and was amazing with them! She’s very communicative and detail oriented. The pictures and updates gave me peace of mind while away. She spent plenty of time playing with them, showered them with treats, and was always prompt with their feeding times. Would definitely book her again!”
About: A lifelong animal lover, I've had the privilege of caring for countless pets throughout my years. My own furry companions receive the utmost love and attention, and I'm committed to providing the same exceptional care to yours.
“Zeel was great! She played with my cats, cleaned up their messes, communicated with me each day while we were away, and sent photos! I would absolutely book with her again in the future!”
About: Hi. I'm Katherine. I have had dogs all of life. I've rescued shelties through NVSR and have taken in many 'street' cats. My last sheltie passed away this spring and while I'm still mourning her too much for a new dog I do desire to shower your pets with affection and make them feel special when you cannot. I'm willing to throw the ball until they are whipped. I'm willing to walk them until they are all tuckered out. My theory has always been that a good dog is a tired dog and a tired dog is a good dog. I've had that 'can't be with them as much as I want' guilt. You can feel confident that they will have the same you you would give them with me. I am currently working part time from home so I have all sorts of time to take good care of your babies when you can't. I will walk and play with your babies in parks, on walks and at the beach. I'm steps away from Dog beach for them to play.
About: I’ve cared for pets of all kinds since I was 10 years old, including dogs, cats, birds, and small mammals. I will provide the best care for your fur babies while keeping their same routine. Whether that means plenty of exercise or just cuddling on the couch, I will make sure your loved ones are taken care of. I am very responsive and communicative, and will always keep you updated throughout their day to give you peace of mind. Having two fur babies myself, I know how daunting it can be leaving them. My goal is to give your pet the same level of care and affection they are used to at home. I am a registered nurse and currently working part time, therefore I have free time during the work week. I am available throughout the week during regular work hours. I will care for your pet like one of my own, and make sure they are comfortable and at ease while you are away. I will make sure their routine and schedule will stay the same for continuity. I also prioritize giving frequent updates so you always have peace of mind.
“Anahita was so kind and sweet - was flexible and saved me in a pinch when I needed a place last minute for my sweet girl to stay. She gave me picture updates, always responding promptly and was very kind and polite! Book her she is amazing!”
“Shena was professional and friendly. She checked-in on and fed my kitty. She kept the schedule requested and sent me updates and pictures. I am very happy I chose Shena to feed my kitty while I was gone for a weekend. I would definitely request you again Shena if you are available the next time we need pet care for Sydney.”
About: Hi! My name is Evelyn! I have a lot of time on my hands currently only working about 7 days a month so my schedule and hours are very flexible right now! I love all animals and have cared for many pets throughout my childhood and adult life. I am very understanding and respectful of anyone’s pets and home. My boyfriend and I have three pups of our own and love them more than anything in the world! I will gladly take any care instructions without question as I just want your pets to be happy and healthy and well taken care of until you get back to them! I also have experience with house sitting/cleaning and will make sure I take care of your home as if it were mine!

“Sarah is really special. Benny was so calm when I picked him up, and seemed so content. I know he had an excellent day with Sarah, Moana and their family. Thank you, Sarah!”
About: I’m a full-time work-from-home professional. Unless I’m traveling for work, I’m home with the pups all day, giving them plenty of attention, love, and care. Please message me for availability—my schedule can often be adjusted to fit your needs. A Few Things to Know: - I focus on dogs 45 lbs and under to ensure everyone stays safe and comfortable. - Dogs will be staying in my home, not a separate kennel area. - I offer free pick up and drop off services so you have one less thing to worry about! Pick up and Drop off must be during daylight hours. Otherwise you will need to pick up or drop off your pup. Pick ups and drop offs must be before 8pm. - If you’d prefer your dog to be the only guest during their stay, just let me know—I’ll do my best to accommodate. - I’ve been petsitting longer than I’ve had my dogs so they’ve been raised with different dogs coming and going and love dogs of all sizes! - I do have chickens and ducks so if your dogs have any prey tendencies, please let me know so I can keep them separated. What Your Dog Can Expect: - Free access to a fully fenced yard for playtime. - Couch privileges and plenty of indoor snuggles. - A daily rhythm of breakfast, play, naps, dinner, and evening exercise. - Lots of dog beds to choose from so everyone always has a comfy space - Walks and leisurely outings if your pup enjoys them. Why Choose Me? I’ve had dogs all my life, and honestly—I prefer pets to people! My own pack is spoiled, and I’ll treat your dog like the king or queen they are. With me, your pup will get more than just care—they’ll get genuine love, attention, and a home-away-from-home. Send me a message today—I’d love to meet your furry best friend! I work from home full time so I can accommodate all schedules and needs! Usually the day starts with breakfast and a little playtime, followed by afternoon napping and then dinner. More playtime after dinner- to make sure everyone gets their exercise needs met. I love all my dogs and yours too! Dogs are given free access to fully fenced outdoor yard and free access to inside, including being on furniture.
“Erin and her family are incredible :) She took amazing care of our dog Mac and sent plenty of great pics. Mac was so delighted to spend time with Erin, her family and her two sweet girls. He was in heaven just hanging in the house and in the yard. He settled in immediately with their family and came home very content and at ease. They also played with him outside so he also came home tired and slept like a baby!”
“Barbara was polite, thoughtful, and kind. She texted to let us know how he was doing about halfway through the appointment, and she shared a cute picture. I would definitely book with her again and certainly recommend her!”
“Maki is so kind, she agreed to watch Gin on late notice. Gin definitely had fun and Maki’s! Maki was great at communicating and sending pics of Gin throughout the day! Definitely recommend!”
“Katherine did a great job taking care of our shy Ginger. Katherine is very patient and gives Ginger plenty of space as she interacts with the other pups in the house and yard. This is Ginger's second stay with Katherine.”
About: Dog care certified in Argentina, as an animal lover I want to pursue career caring for them. Since young, I used to spend a lot of time in dog walks and parks with them. I believe now, I can provide them the perfect environment of a fenced backyard of 10.000 sqf. I love to exercise and pamper pups and we're easy to reach, even for a last-minute need. With some dog training experience and a lot of love for dogs, I look forward to taking care of your family member like one of our own. Depending on your pup's needs, I will take long playtime or jogs with your dog. If your furry family member just needs companionship and loving attention, I am happy to provide that kind of care, too. Photos of your dog will be shared with you throughout their visit. I love to send lots of pictures of my guests. My house is generally a cage-free environment, but will use your crates if that is what your pup is used to at home. I have a couple of gates to use as necessary to separate dogs during meals and to give them a large, safe play area in our home.
“Granite had the best day ever with Alexsys. 30 min after I dropped him off she sent me a photo of a very happy dog sitting in her lap. Alexsys was so great with communication. She sent many photos and let me know how he was doing during this entire stay. We will definitely book with Alexsys again.”
About: Hi! I’m a work-from-home mom of three amazing boys, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm, so being around animals wasn’t just a hobby — it was a way of life. I’ve owned pets my entire life and have also fostered many dogs over the years, so my boys have grown up learning how to properly handle, respect, and love animals. We recently lost our sweet dog last year and are taking a little break from owning one, but our home feels happiest with paws around. Dog sitting allows us to share that love while giving your pup the attention and care they deserve. Because I work from home full time, your dog will rarely be alone and will get plenty of supervision, affection, and companionship throughout the day. We have a large single-family home with lots of space to relax. There’s a large fenced backyard for safe outdoor time, as well as a spacious front yard — but please know your dog will never be outside unsupervised. In our home, dogs are family. They’re welcome on the couch and even in the bed for snuggles at night if that’s what they’re used to. My boys love giving extra attention, playtime, and belly rubs — always guided by what your dog is comfortable with. Our family truly adores and respects animals, and we will care for your dog as if they were our own — with patience, structure, affection, and lots of love. I’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine since I work from home full time. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and regular potty breaks as often as needed. Your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches. We go on at least one walk every day, and I’m happy to adjust the length or pace depending on your dog’s age and energy level. In addition to walks, I incorporate outdoor time, playtime, and plenty of affection into the day. Because I’m already on a steady home schedule, it’s easy for me to maintain feeding times, medication schedules, and any specific routines your dog is used to. When pets stay in my home, they become part of our daily routine and are treated like family. Because I work from home full time, I’m able to provide constant supervision, regular potty breaks, and lots of attention throughout the day. Dogs have access to our large fenced backyard (always supervised) and enjoy at least one daily walk, along with playtime and snuggles. They’re welcome on the couch and even in bed if that’s what they’re used to. I stick closely to each dog’s normal feeding schedule, exercise routine, and any special instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure. My goal is always the same: to provide safe, loving, reliable care so both you and your pet feel completely at ease.
“Haejin & Herscel were wondering caretakers! They were open to taking my dog for daycare a few days before and treated her so well. I liked that they only take a few dogs a day to reduce exposure and ensure they are all being watched. I loved the occasional photo and video updates, which her other daycare doesn't do it all. She came home very tired from playing all day, which was exactly what we wanted. I look forward to using them again!”
“Lauren was a great sitter! She was very conscientious about making Max’s stay comfortable for him and checked in with me throughout the day. I would definitely have her watch him again”
“Yang took amazing care of Ranger. She sent plenty of photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was at work. She was clearly attentive to his comfort and routine. She also accommodated my early work schedule, which I truly appreciated. Ranger came home calm and happy each day. I would absolutely book with Yang again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, thoughtful care.”
“Lisette is WONDERFUL and her family is also so nice. She was very friendly and lovable, super communicative, helpful, and also flexible. She took great care of my dog and sent photos throughout the day, and he was really happy and relaxed (and in no hurry to leave) when I came to pick him up so I know he loved being there! I definitely recommend her and will send my dog there again anytime she's available!”
“Abby and her husband were great hosts! Awesome communication and everything was made easy and smooth for a last minute request. Their dogs Maple Syrup and Moose were such good puppy hosts and played well with our dog. We received plentiful videos and pictures of the fun!”

About: Hi, I'm restarting my animal care business. I want to ensure a stimulated experience with a swift pace and consistent disciplined walking style of what I like to refer to as "nose to toes," where the dogs stay no further than my toe, to my sides, or behind me. I also have experience with aggressive dog behavior, so if a single walk is necessary, I can do that. I have been in the animal care business for as long as I can remember, and I know Fairlington very well since I grew up here. I now live in Harper's Ferry in West Virginia. I will be able to track my walks with a phone app that will track your dog's walking pace, distance traveled, and the route we take. I usually do pack walks of 3-5 dogs depending on size, but I can do singles if needed. I'm also able to cat-sit/dog-sit and care for exotics and birds (no insects). I'm flexible because I have my own cleaning/organizing/declutter business. I wake up however early dog might need be let out or pet given meds, and give at least 3 long 30min-hour walks depending on the energy level and few let outs throught the day if needed for young pups or older if bladder is sensitive. Plenty of loves and can work on training or stimulated play time with toys and puzzles. I will be professional and not have any guests over ever, and always keep doors locked when not there and if plants need care I can help with watering. I have 4 animals myself so it's pretty automatic to just add another pet cuz I've cared for multiple animals at a time or drop in visits when needed throughout my day. Whatever the fmaily requests for schedule when to feed, medicate(if needed), amount of walks and play time needed to make sure they're healthy and stimulated. Whenever they're ready for bed, crate if needed requested by parents, and make sure they go outside(dogs) to ensure no accidents throughout the night. I give them just as much love and attention and play as my own. And feed round same schedule unless instructed otherwise. Giving exercise and play time when needed. And kept to routine of crating if owners instruct.
About: I have been animal sitting for almost 9 years now, starting when I was in high school. I have experience in animal care for multiple species, energy levels, behaviors, ages, and health needs. No task is too big for me, my biggest job was being a sitter for a family of 10 dogs, and a pig! I worked at a nonprofit animal rescue where I learned more about how to care for cats and dogs, and how to gauge their personalities, and energy levels. I am passionate about animal happiness and satisfaction. Right now, I am completely free. I have a car and a valid drivers license. I just moved back home after hiking for 4 months on the Appalachian trail, while walking I had lots of time to think about my passions, and of those are animal welfare, care, and personally staying active and fit! I have two personal dogs, one of which is a senior in hospice care, out of respect for him, I am not taking animals into my home right now. However, any type of drop-ins or house-sitting is on the table. I take direction seriously and can provide medical care, activity, play, feeding, or anything else that is needed for your beloved animal!

“Booking with Kristen through Rover was a seamless and easy process. Kristen’s years of experience caring for animals was obvious from the start. We could not have been happier with her care for our dog, Cash. Cash loves playing with other dogs and he had lots of time to do so in large, fenced in, picturesque fields. Thank you, Kristen!”
“Anahita was a life saver for me this past weekend. She was able to care for Sammy with last minute notice, which I really appreciated. I like the fact that she has other dogs because Sammy is very social and likes to play with other dogs. Apparently he got along with her dogs just fine and that makes me happy. He needed some socialization. She sent photos throughout Sammy’s stay in her home. When I picked Sammy up the next day, he seemed very calm and relaxed. He was pretty calm the rest of the evening which was great. I expected a little anxiety when I returned but Sammy seemed peaceful on the drive back home. I think that Anahita’s calm, caring and peaceful personality played a huge part. I appreciate that so much. She pays attention to details that are important to the dog for a successful stay, but is not overly anxious. Thank you so much, Anahita, for caring for Sammy for me. I was able to relax and have a great overnight trip without worrying about Sammy! We will be repeat customers for sure!”
“Katherine took amazing care of Luna. We got regular pictures of her everyday. She played frisbee with her and walked her. I was impressed with her knowledge of handling dogs right off the bat. We will definitely look to use Katherine for pet sitting again and I would recommend her to anyone!!!”
“Barbara took amazing care of my anxious dog. She provided daily updates of how my dog was adjusting. Thankfully, my dog adjusted quickly and had a wonderful time playing with Dobby and the daycare dogs. I was only a little worried my dog wouldn't want to go home because Barbara took such great care of her.”
“Sarah was a fabulous host with a beautiful fenced in yard and home. She sent photos of Rocky and her kids which were so cute. Great communication throughout the stay and super convenient to wineries, tap rooms and Historic Rosemont Manor. Would highly recommend!”
“Makie took such great care of our puppy while out of town for a week. We are very pleased and happy to have found someone who loves our little one and had no problems with special requests/ instruction. THANK YOU MAKIE!”
“We couldn't be happier with the care Baxter received from Elisa and James! Since this was our first time leaving Baxter with them, we were a little nervous, especially since Baxter was staying for only two days. But they immediately made us feel comfortable and reassured us that Baxter was in good hands. Throughout his stay, Elisa and James kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was wonderful seeing Baxter looking happy, relaxed, and comfortable. They were attentive to his needs, gave him plenty of love and attention, and made sure he was well cared for. Thank you, Elisa and James, for taking such wonderful care of Baxter and making his first stay with you such a positive experience. We truly appreciate the updates, love, and attention you gave him. We're so glad we found someone we can trust, and we would definitely book with you again!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Tara provided for my husky, Rocky! Huskies can be a handful, but she handled him perfectly — keeping him exercised, happy, and well-loved while she was boarding him. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. When I picked him up, Rocky was calm, clean, and clearly well cared for.”
“Leslie is incredibly kind and attentive. She took my dog out for a lot of exercise, and kept him happy and safe while I was away. She provided plenty of photos and video updates and followed instructions to a T. She has a big backyard and comfortable looking house in a quiet neighborhood. My dog is usually pretty shy and can take a long time to warm up to new sitters, but he was right at home with Leslie. I would definitely recommend her to others, and plan to book with her again in the future.”
“Lori was amazing and the pup was well taken care of, it was great knowing our pup was in good hands, we got updates through out the weekend, would recommend Lori to EVERYONE! :)”
“Thank you so much for taking great care of Ahsoka. She was immediately comfortable with you and at your home. We really appreciate the pics you send while we are gone. We will definitely book again.”
“We have a Husky (Kalea) and she gets separation anxiety so we needed to find a home where she wasn’t crated. Kelly and her family are amazing with her and she became part of their family. Kelly sent me updates daily with photos and we could tell that Kalea was relaxed and having fun. Kelly has a big yard and a sweet little dog PJ that got along very well with Kalea. The whole experience was perfect and we were able to go away knowing Kalea was happy. Thank you Kelly!”
“Alicia and her boys made my pups so comfortable, I wasn't sure they'd want to come home with me after the five day stay! She shared pictures and updates that warmed my heart and put my mind at ease for their first-ever stay away from home. I will definitely rebook with her in the future and highly, highly recommend her to others.”
“Top notch care taker. Alexsys cares about what she is doing and is confident with handling all types of dogs. The communication, photos and videos she provider were greatly appreciated. I highly recommend her and will be definitely booking again!”
“I wish there were 10 stars. I feel lucky to have found William! Lainey was very happy when I picked her up! She acted like she had been on vacation bc she was soooo spoiled by William while he had her! He communicate with us daily and sent cute pictures and comforting words!”
“Millie had so much fun at Ray’s house with Penny! Penny is such a sweet/gentle dog but matched Millie’s play style so well. There was a decent amount of updates/pictures and from that I knew Ray treated Millie like his own. He is super thorough and makes sure to really know the dog and their routine before even boarding. I will definitely be using Ray again in the future!”
“Such wonderful animal lovers! I received nightly photos of our dog having the best time on their property. Would recommend them to everyone and will use them again.”
“Lauren was great! She was very flexible with drop off timing and transparent with everything. My dog had a skin tag that burst on our way there, which had never happened right before dropping him off at a sitter. I tried my best to stop the bleeding, but I eventually had to drop him off with them. I was very worried that he'd be a burden or get their home dirty but they were very understanding. They reassured me that they could handle it and their updates definitely eased my anxiety! Also, what was sweet to know about his stay is that their young son loved my dog and they slept together for the night. My pup adores cuddles so I just know he got all the attention he needed! Overall, I would recommend Lauren and would definitely book her again :)”
“5 glowing stars to Deborah for graciously boarding Baxter on such short notice and showering him with exceptional, loving care while we were out of town. Being new to VA, we were understandably a bit hesitant about leaving him, but Deborah instantly eased our worries and gave Baxter the joyful, pampered experience he truly deserved. Thank you, Deborah!!”
