“William took amazing care of our 2 older dogs while we were out of town for a week. We got many updates and pictures every day and could tell they were being very well cared for. He even took time to hang out with them at the house and give them extra love in between walks. This was one of our best dog sitters in recent memory and we will definitely hire again!!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire childhood. I absolutely love animals and the joy they bring to my life. I would love the opportunity to make your animals feel safe and comfortable as they have always done for me! I am currently unemployed but looking for a full-time job. In the meantime, I have a very open schedule for drop-ins, walks, and boarding. Any changes to my schedule will be communicated promptly! I have experience caring for animals at all stages. Puppies and kittens, crate training, and grown up animals. I feel very comfortable helping at all stages! My home is very secure and would be a great environment for animals. I live in a safe neighborhood that I am comfortable walking dogs in.

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs from as young as I can remember. As a 8 year old my aunts rowdy two black labs were my best pals and her cat mocha was my best friend who we loved and petted for 16 years. I've always loved animals and caring for them comes naturally. I have a lot of experience walking medium to large reactive dogs, I understand the patience and focus you need to have with them in public. I also love all cats, even the mean ones, and understand the gentleness required to take care of our feline friends. I don't have any pets right now because my partner is allergic to both cats and dogs so we are navigating the shots process to hopefully be able to welcome a pet soon :) I'm currently unemployed so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule and ability to travel near and far to take care of your beloved pets. I cannot take care of pets at my own home, condo rules :( but I'm more than happy to travel to take care of yours! I'm always hyperaware of space ensuring your animal stays safe with double checked harnesses and leashes.
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I needed an urgent dog walker for the next day, and Osmany responded immediately and stepped up to help. He walked my dogs the very next day and was incredibly caring and patient with them. You can tell he truly loves and understands dogs. He was also very flexible with scheduling, which made everything so much easier for me. I’m very grateful for his help and would definitely recommend Osmany to anyone looking for a reliable and kind dog walker. Thank you, Osmany!”

“Margaret is great. She comes in to feed and walk my dog Venus when I’ll be out late. She is super-reliable and asked me a number of questions to make sure everything was just so. I happened to come home early last night when she was still there - Venus is clearly very attached to her and Margaret is a super nice person. I highly recommend her!”
“Nicholas has become fast friends with my Akita, and they have wonderful afternoons together in the park! I am particularly pleased that he handles her dog reactive behavior so smoothly, and my 70lb girl is completely safe in his care. Nicholas always provides a detailed report for each walk they go on, and takes the time and attention to make my sweet girl as comfortable as can be while I am away. We are so glad to have found each other!”
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.

“Macy is doing a great job at walking Charlie. Macy is easy to communicate with and responsible with accessing my apartment. Charlie is throughly enjoying the daily midday walk, highly recommended booking with Macy.”

About: Hello! I am appreciative of all fuzzy friends, big and small. I have two cats of my own, with loads of dog care experience. I have lots of experience with young puppies, senior pets who need medication (oral pills or otherwise), fickle kitties, and shy pets. I’ve trained three cats from kittens, and can provide care for those still learning litter box manners. I work a traditional 9-5, and wfh 3 days a week. Depending on the day, I can offer a lunch break check in, meal time pop ins, and lots of weekend love! As a visitor of your home, I am open to whatever method you employ for your friend’s safety. I have experience with crate training and am happy to continue your training practices. In my own home, I keep my cats safe by keeping out a toxic plants/food items and practicing general cat safety (no breakables near the shelf edges ifkyk).
“Niamh was fantastic! She stepped in and cared for our dog when other care fell through. She was communicative and took fabulous care of our pup!! Would absolutely book her again.”

About: From very sickly puppies to senior cats, I have taken care of many family pets and was entrusted by friends with overnight sittings and visits while they were away. Looking forward to meeting your beloved pets. Please note that if you’d like an in person meet up, I humbly ask that you book a paid 30 mins visit. Otherwise, I am happy to use the Rover feature to video call and get to know you and your little ones! I work mostly from home so there's a lot of time flexibility for caring for pets. Not available on Thursdays since it is my office day. I won't be onboarding pets at this time, since I am fostering a cat for someone in my family. When caring for a pet in someone else's home, I always keep safe and sanitary conditions as the basis for pet+owner well-being. I always have a conversation about daily habits and protocols for cleaning accidents among other details when meeting up with an owner and their pet.
About: I have had pets my whole life. I currently have a cat who I adore! I will give your pet the best care possible, and I look forward to meeting your fluffy family members!

Please let me know if any specific instructions for the pet in house!

Woodley Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Nicky is great! She is so good with Lila. In all my years of using Rover, I find that a lot of the providers treat these bookings as purely transactional. They do their job and that's it. No warmth, no sincerity. You can tell that she really loves animals. She has been very attentive to Lila's needs and is very communicative (with us AND Lila), asking questions, expressing concerns, and just giving general updates! We hope that Nicky will be able to continue caring for Lila. Definitely a diamond in the rough!

- Start and stop times
- A map of their walk with total distance
