House Sitting in Washington, DC

“Rachelle did a great job watching my dog at my home for the weekend. She handled some walk difficulties my pup gave her very well, and I came home to a well cared for dog. Will use again.”

“Alysha took amazing care of my pup! You can tell she is a HUGE animal lover and she was very communicative and friendly. Will definitely be re-booking!”

“Timo is the best sitter we could ask for. Our cats love him so much and we know Timo really cares for them as if they’re his own. Timo also keeps us at ease by sending many photos and updates about the boys while we are away. And we always come back to a clean house and happy cats! Can’t recommend him enough!”

“Emily took care of not only my puppy Atlas but also my parents’ senior dog Chip while I was out of town. She provided me with daily updates so that I knew they were doing well. I came home to a clean apartment and two happy dogs. I would happily book her again in the future”

“Navya did a wonderful job caring for my puppy who is quite a handful! I appreciate that she kept me informed as to how the pup was doing and sent me photos. I felt very comfortable that my puppy was appropriately cared for the five nights I was gone. THANK YOU!”

“Erica was great! Our dog immediately warmed up to her so we knew he would be in great hands. Erica was very responsive over the app, sent pics and updates, and was a super respectful houseguest as well.”

“Emily was great. She was responsive and accommodating when it came to my requests and questions. She took good care of the dog and the apartment. I would highly recommend her and definitely use her again”

“Casey was wonderful! We know our dog is in good hands with her. Our dog got an ear infection the day we were supposed to leave for our trip and Casey was super helpful with administering the medication and keeping us updated.”

“Mia is so great. She has previously taken care of our cat and is fantastic so we used her again. She sends daily updates with photos and videos, our cat LOVES her, and she is super attentive to every detail (including leaving our home in great condition). Absolutely recommend her!”

“Alona watched over my two dogs while I was away on a work trip, and she was great with communicating/sending updates with cute pictures. She was also flexible and understanding when timing needed to change a little, and asked great questions during our neet and greet. Definitely would recommend her and will be asking her to stay with them again!”

“Billie made my first experience with Rover a seamless and stressless experience. From the meet and greet to the way she continuously updated me via messages, to the way she left the apartment I never worried and my dog Maybe had a great time with her! Will be using her in the future!”

“Raakhee was incredible!!! She's super attentive to every detail and took such good care of Mac. Her communication was excellent and she wrote us an amazing note and even left a nice little card. We loved having her watch Mac and know he was in great hands! We can't wait to have her back!!”

“I cannot say enough about how wonderful Leslie is. From the start of our communication to the day we had our meet and greet, I had a good feeling about her due largely to her excellent communication. My two dogs are a handful and I interviewed several sitters before meeting Leslie. I am always apprehensive about leaving my dogs because of how high energy they are, but she put my mind at ease with thoughtful/introspective statements about her approach to and experience dog sitting. My usually skittish and guarded Silky Terrier warmed up to Leslie right away and in one of the early pictures was belly up on the couch waiting for attention and pets. Leslie kept the dogs on their schedule with long Arboretum walks and gave them the best possible care I could ask for. As others have mentioned, she was transparent with arrival/departure times and communicative with pics and texts during the visit. She kept my home tidy and loved my dogs - what more could anyone ask for in a dog sitter? Leslie is not only the type of person I want taking care of my dogs, she is the type of person I would love to have as a friend. She even stepped in to water my plants while I was gone on another trip! She’s truly one of Rover’s best.”

“Lily is a fantastic person and truly knowledgeable when it comes to dogs. She cared for my shy and fearful little dog for the first time last week, and they were best friends by the time I got home. Lily is a caring person who truly loves dogs and understands them. She is also punctual, communicative, and flexible. I had an emergency while Lily cared for my dog, and although Lily had other plans, she changed them to stay with my dog, which suffers from severe separation anxiety. I was amazed at her compassion and understanding, and I will deffitely work with her again because she won over my little guy. I got home, and although he greeted me, he played with Lily, which is rare. Thank you, Lily, you truly saved us.”

“Allison was a great house and pet sitter. She provided regular updates and when I got home my apartment was clean and my doggy was happy. My dog is reactive which makes me nervous when I leave her with sitters but Allison was reassuring and I was glad Mae had no issues.”

“José was fantastic! Took great care with my pup. Sent updates and photos just as we agreed prior to stay. Looking forward to booking with José again.”

“Alex and Lotus had their first successful day together! Lotus got some hang time at home before his evening walk and dinner and I’m so happy everything went smoothly.”

“We highly recommend Joseph!! He was great! Mimi, our 9 year old rescue, was comfortable with him from the initial meet and greet. Joe is very personable, capable, punctual, thorough, and dependable. We received regular updates of Mimi and returned to a happy dog in a neat and tidy condo!”

“Michael is an amazing, responsive, kind, and responsible person that we are delighted to call on as a pet and house sitter! Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to love and watch their pets! Thank you again and we look forward to next time!”

“Ann was great! She took amazing care of our dog Noah and was extremely easy to work and communicate with. She left our apartment in tiptop shape. Would definitely book her again.”
