“Once again, Chrissy did a fabulous job in taking care of my cats when I went on a quick vacation. She sent multiple photos each time she visited and let me know how each of them were doing. She did not need any prompting as she send photos and updates before I could even ask for them. She is my one and only sitter that I absolutely trust 110%! Thank you, Chrissy! The cats miss you already!”
“Ellie supported us with a shorter notice request and did an excellent job with our two pups. The photos from her visits helped put our minds at ease. Definitely recommend her services.”
“Dominique is the best!!!!!!! We literally booked her last minute before going out of the country. We love her and most important of all my both doggies love her!!!! She has been such a great help and we will always keep her in mind for the future!!!!”
“Lily was fantastic! Incredibly kind, accommodating, and took amazing care of our pups during our trip. Went above and beyond and would highly recommended to anyone looking for the best of the best!”
“I was hesitant to try something like Rover because my dog can be stubborn but Kristy was amazing and worked some magic on my stubborn girl! Will definitely request her again!”
“Well Ms. Mo did it again - she is a cat whisperer, we are convinced! Our two boys love her so much that they end up saying “Ms. Mo” instead of “Meow” when we return from a vacation. We schedule our trips around her schedule because we don’t want to have to think about having anyone else care for our fur children. Thank you Ms. Maureen for always going above and beyond, we are very grateful we found you. ❤️🐱”
“Sarah cared for my elderly kitties while I was away for a few days. I was comforted knowing she was capable of handling, what I felt was, a unique situation. I might go away more often now. And if I do, I know who to call.”
“Kasie did a great job caring for my cat. He's anxious around people he doesn't know, but she was able to bring him out of his shell and even give him his medication on the first day. Well done and thank you for the peace of mind ?”
“Miranda did a fabulous job. She went above and beyond, meeting the cats before the sit, playing with them, gaining their trust. She is very communicative and we were completely confident that our babies were well looked after. We came home to happy and healthy cats.”
“Anhelika is definitely the cat whisperer. Mine LOVE her and have really taken to her. I truly appreciate the care she provides, just as if they were her own pets. I will continue to book her as often as possible.”
About: With a pupper in our homes since before we can remember and experience caring for multiple other people's dogs, we've got what it takes to care for your dogs, no matter the size, and leave their tails wagging. We have experience caring for dogs after medical procedures and dogs with bladder issues, different energy needs, different anxiety levels, and partial blindness. Need a walk, food, refilling water, playing, ear scratches? We're there. And don't worry, we were sending lots of pictures before Rover cards, so rest assured that you'll get to see your precious pup (or pups) while you're away. With one us freelancing and the other in a flexible, remote job, our schedule is very flexible and we can be there to take care of your pet whenever you need! Morning, afternoon, evening - you name it and we'll be there. We have always had at least one pet at home with different preferences in how they like to be loved. Even so, our experience has shown us that no matter the pet, patience, kindness, affection, and quality time equate to a happy fur baby and that is what your pet will get from us. We believe that going beyond any beloved pet’s basic needs is the bare minimum. Even during short 30-min or 1-hr check-ins with your pet, we will cram in as much as we can to ensure they are happy and content including grooming, cleaning, playing, photography for parents, and more. Our genuine love for furry friends will ensure an excellent experience for your cat or dog.
About: While I’ve never had the chance to own a pet of my own, I’ve always loved animals and have been deeply involved in helping care for them. I’ve helped raise and care for two cats and three dogs within my close network of friends and family by taking part in everything from feeding, walking, training to playtime and building trust. Through these experiences, I’ve learned how to read animal behavior, respond with patience and calm energy, and understand the daily needs and routines that keep pets happy and healthy. I may not have had my “own” pet yet, but I’ve shown up for animals like they were my own and I am looking forward to caring for animals while I'm exploring new opportunities in my career. I'm currently available full-time in the DMV area [Mon-Sun] between the hours of 0500 & 1800. I'm willing to travel to build a customer base. Caring for animals comes natural for me. I have a keen sense of awareness and can anticipate and meet the needs of animals just through observing their breathing, posture, and reactions to environmental stimuli. I always travel with water, treats, and blankets to account for changes in weather or in case of emergency.
“Stephanie is amazing with our furry babies! It’s so nice to see pictures of them while on vacation…and she waters my indoor and outdoor plants. She’s wonderful…oh and she is taking care of our baby monarch caterpillars and chrysalis… The best pet sitter! Wouldn’t trust our lovies with anyone else!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life and currently work with them full time. Learning from, and growing a bond with them is my ultimate goal. I currently work mornings so my afternoons and evenings are usually available. I have my own dog, so a walk is always first on my to do! My dog has her own space in her crate. She enjoys spending time in there. She has a strict dinner time which allows for full consumption and digestion. I walk her at the earliest 90 minutes later. To avoid any bloat or other intestinal issues.
About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life, and at a young age was entrusted with the care of neighbors friends and families pets. I haven't met an animal yet that I couldn't win over and make them my friend! I adore animals, and they love me! Pet care is my life. The majority of my day is devoted to animal care. This is a farm, so a few hours a day devoted to farm chores, but the rest of the day is devoted to the pets in my care. There are trails and a creek, so we go for walks and the occasional swim. There are also wide open pastures that are great for a game of chase or fetch. My home is set up for any kind of care. At our home; your animal will be made to feel at home. There are crates if your pet is more comfortable this way. At your home; time will be spent socializing with your pet, play, cuddling, story time, and feeding.
About: I have lived my whole life with animals of every size and shape. I currently have three young adult rescue dogs of medium size and an adult bearded dragon. My pets are my children and I always strive to give animals I have the best care possible. My husband and I love finding ways to continue training our dogs and enrich their lives. I’m happy to take on puppies, senior dogs, or any other animal you may need care for. I am a teacher and am available on weekends and nights during the school year. Once summer comes, I will be available most days, especially with far enough notice. When I come to a client’s home to care for a pet, I will always follow the instructions of the client. When the pets are at my house, their care will be a top priority. Frequent play time, walks, feeding, available water at all times, a fenced in backyard to use the bathroom, and lots of toys to play with!

“Monica and Charles always take such amazing care our dog! This incredible couple go above and beyond in every way — not only making sure our pup’s basic needs are met, but truly treating them like part of their own family. It’s so clear how much they genuinely love animals. They send the sweetest photos, which give so much peace of mind and make us smile every time. You can just tell they pay attention to the little things — from cuddle time and walks to making sure our dog feels safe and loved. We wouldn’t have any hesitatation with letting them care for her again. If you're looking for someone who will love your pet like their own, look no further!”

Alexandra C.
“We felt so confident leaving our pups with Alexandra! Our dogs instantly loved her and respected her. It was evident that she takes her job seriously and genuinely enjoys playing with them and taking care of them. Our dogs are big snugglers and she was up for the challenge of wrestling with them! Thank you, Alexandra!!”
Ellen G.
“I met Ellen a few years ago when I hired her to cat sit for me, and from that very first experience, I knew I had found someone truly special. Ellen has such a kind, nurturing, and genuinely friendly presence—it’s something you feel the moment you meet her. My cat has always been extremely timid around new people, usually taking days to warm up, if at all. But with Ellen, something was different. Incredibly, my cat opened up to her within the first day. That kind of connection doesn’t happen often, and it spoke volumes about Ellen’s gentle and trustworthy nature. She is attentive, reliable, and truly cares for the animals she looks after. Because of her, I’m able to travel without a shred of anxiety, knowing my pet is not just cared for, but genuinely loved while I’m away. Ellen is a rare find, and I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
Courtney F.
“Courtney is the biggest animal lover who will take care of your pets like they are her own! She has experience with her own pets of all kinds! Hire Courtney today! Your pets will thank you!”
Woods pet parents share their Rover experiences
We are so excited to have Taylor in our puppies’ lives. She allowed our mastiff the time she needed to be safe and comfortable with her and now requests unlimited pets and cuddles. As a dog mom of a fear based dog, this has really changed things for us to be able to travel and let her stay home sometimes. We will be doing an overnight for our two dogs soon! I recommend anyone who has fear based dogs to reach out to Taylor.
