About: I love long walks and would love to bring your active pets along with me! I have been taking care of dogs and cats since I was young. I'm currently on summer break from my PhD program in DC and would love to spend time with your pets! I am generally available Monday-Friday from 7am-5pm. I live in a large apartment building with many comfy couches and blankets for your pets to relax on. I will watch your pet closely to ensure that they stay happy and safe.

“Grateful as always for Ainsley!”
About: I’ve grown up with cats/dogs my entire life and am a huge animal person. I’ve watched friends and family’s animals off and on throughout the years and make sure I spend as much time with them as possible during visits and follow any given instructions. I have two cats of my own, Evan (8) and Cuphead (9), and expect great cat sitting from those who watch them when I’m gone. Therefore, I would give nothing less to animals I sit for as well! I have a full-time job so I’m available on the week-days before 9AM and after 5:30PM. Weekends I’m available at any time you may need. I’ll always make sure to follow all instructions you give- both of my cats are on specific diets so I’m very conscious of animals’ needs. I also am happy to spend as much time with your animal as you’d like in order to keep them company and keep them happy. I have experience giving pills as well. Also happy to clean litter boxes and make sure there’s always fresh water for cats.
About: Pets are important members of the family and I take their care (and play) seriously. I have been around dogs since the age of 10 and started caring for dogs about two years ago. I have experience working with dogs aged 2 to 13 and experience working with epileptic dogs. I am comfortable working with special needs dogs and administering medication. I recognize the importance of consistent training and am more than happy to work with you and your dog to work on specific goals during our time together. Lastly, I want your dog to feel comfortable and safe. I will go at your dog's pace and do my best to meet their needs, whether that's a long walk, a leisurely stroll, or one-on-one play. I am a young professional who recently moved the Woodley Park area. Right now, my schedule is wide open and I am excited to work with your pets as I settle into the city. It is important to me that you and your pet feel comfortable with me in your space. I am happy to follow your lead on care and I have the utmost respect for your home. Whether it is respecting rules about pets on furniture, limiting play to specific areas, or double checking the lock when I leave, I will work with you to make sure your pet has a positive experience and you have peace of mind.

Dog Walking FAQs
Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.
Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Woodley Park.
You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:
- Start and stop times
- A map of their walk with total distance
- Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
- Cute photos and a personalized note
Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services.
