“Connie came and it did not take long for my fuzzy kids to take to her. I have two adult Bengals and they love to play and are very affectionate. I think she did a wonderful job connecting with my guys and making my absence more manageable for my pets. The communication and photos gave me peace of mind and I could see they were having a great time playing with her. I arrived home to well-adjusted and relaxed pets and this is directly related to how wonderfully Connie took care of my kids. I will be booking her again. Thank you, Connie!!”
About: I have been an animal lover since I was a little baby! We have always had animals growing up and now as an adult I have two spoiled little pups of my own. I couldn’t imagine my life without these little balls of fur. I make my own schedule so I’m available to love on your pups when needed. I understand the importance of care when you’re away and want to enjoy your trip but still worry about your little ones at home. I have a fenced yard and a dog park near by, however I completely understand if you’re not comfortable with your dog at the dog park. My two pups love company and my significant other is around as well to give extra extra love!
About: Individual with a BS degree in animal science who loves animals of all kinds and would love to keep your furry family members as happy, active, and healthy as possible while you are away! I have over 1000 hours working with animals in all aspects from basic husbandry and pet sitting to veterinary clinical care! Due to my busy schedule working a full time job at a veterinary clinic, my services are best suited to individual walks or drop in visits on my days off (usually Tuesdays and Wednesdays), or sitting for pets that are able to be left alone for 9+ hours at a time. I do not have any pets of my own and am child free, so I can easily provide overnight pet sitting for clients if they would prefer rather than just being present during the day.
“Excellent job! I am very pleased with the way Isabelle took time to play with my cat. Last time I went away she was so anxious and stressed when I came home because that sitter just went in and out. But this time, my cat was happy to see me and there were no accidents! I will definitely use Isabelle in the future!”
“Amanda did a wonderful job caring for Coco with daily drop-in visits while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and sent regular updates and photos that gave us peace of mind throughout our trip. We really appreciated knowing Coco was being cared for in the comfort of our own home. Amanda was professional and dependable, and we’d be happy to book with her again. Thank you, Amanda!”
“Hayley was amazing! Arrived early/on time and took lots of pictures. We asked for help on short notice and she delivered! We came home to a happy dog and cat. Will definitely use her again!”
“Layla is AWESOME SAUCE!! My kitties are typically "anti-humam other than mommy", but one of my kitties actually made contact with her several times. Layla is very sweet, she's observant, she's thoughtful, she's polite, and she genuinely loves and cares for animals. I'm so happy I was able to find her to look after my babies while I was away. I wasn't worried one bit because I knew she was dropping in on them while I was gone, and she took very good care of them!”
“Brandon was great! He was very Communicative and did very well with my diva-kitty! She’s not really personable but did very well with Brandon the moment she met him and you could notice her comfort increase daily in the pix uploaded by Brandon. I am pleased, and kitty is happy and healthy.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats and have learned how to care, play, and communicate with them through a lifetime of caring for them in my own home. I’ve come to love their little personalities, every pet a distinct individual. I also have experience working in a local pet store and know a great deal about nutrition and treats for pets. I can walk, check in on, or sit for your pet while you’re away in a safe, trustworthy manner. Dogs of all sizes as well as cats are welcome! I hope you’ll consider me today! I’m a full time college student, so my schedule is very flexible. I am most available in the summer and winter, but during the semester I’ll have plenty of time fri-sun and later availability mon-thur! I am able to control rowdy/excited animals on walks and have extensive knowledge in pet diet restrictions. Pet care may seem simple, but I take their safety and security very seriously. If anything unusual happens, you’ll be notified straight away.
“Maria was so wonderful with our cat Lucy. Lucy is a bit shy but I could tell from the pictures and videos Maria sent me daily that Lucy was comfortable and having a a great time with Maria’s company. Maria was very reliable and even showed up for us on Thanksgiving Day. She sent me a report every day to let me know how the visit went and how Lucy was doing. We hate leaving our Lucy alone for a few days but it was a great comfort to know she was taken such great care of by Maria while my daughter had to go out of town. I will definitely use Maria again if we need a pet sitter in the future and I’m so grateful for her wonderful care of our sweet Lucy.”
About: I've grown up with pets my entire life, and dogs have always been part of my daily routine. I regularly walk, feed, and play with them and would consider myself a natural when it comes to canine companions. In fact, a dog is usually the first thing to greet me when I wake up in the morning! Because I have a dog of my own, and interact with other dogs frequently, I understand their body language and cues, and can thus anticipate their needs and behavior in any given situation. I am patient, kind, and loving in all my interactions with dogs, as they are truly a humans best friend. I look forward to the opportunity to spend time with, and care for, your companions as if they were my own. With 3 dogs and 5 cats, I am well versed in everything from dog park etiquette, to deep litter box cleaning. My daily routine always consists of animal care, from morning until night. With the animals I have in my house, I would prefer to sit at the clients home. I am very low maintenance, and leave no trace of my presence, other than a happy pet waiting for your return.
About: I have cared for all sorts of dogs since I was a kid. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me with their dogs to walk, feed, and watch them. Experience has taught me the importance of dedicating quality time, patience, and giving as much love as I can, so that dogs have the best life possible. I cannot wait to meet your pooch! I am available for walks most days of the week, and typically have the most availability around lunchtime. I do not provide transportation such as driving your pet(s) to dog parks. As a dog caretaker, please let me know if your pet has any special needs, routines, or even house rules like keeping off furniture. This will help ensure your dog’s safety as well as mine. I don't do well with dogs that play overly aggressively and bite. I'm available for "meet and greets" beforehand which are helpful to determine if your dog and I will be a good match.
“Giovanna was amazing!! Drako loved being visited by her, she was very communicative with us and made sure we got pictures and updates on a visit baisis! We felt so happy and comfortable that our dog was being taken care by her! Definitely would recommend her with anyone that needs his/her dog taking care of! We would definitely will be thinking of her if we need someone to take care of our dog! Thanks Giovanna!!”
“Erin has been great visiting Milo! He likes her and always seems well rested when I get home. She is communicative and takes great photos. I would definately reccomend her!”
About: I work as an assistant manager at Preston’s Country Club for Pets, supporting daily kennel operations. What sets me apart is the experienced, attentive care I give every pet. I take time to learn their personality, routines, and comfort needs, with hands-on experience caring for puppies, senior pets, and providing gentle medication support. I am currently attending University of Maryland, however I only have class for few hours a day. My schedule for classes are Mondays/Wednesdays 9-11:30 and Tuesdays/Thursdays 10- 12:30. I care for pets in my client’s home by following their established routines to keep pets comfortable and stress free. This includes feeding according to instructions, providing fresh water, walks or exercise, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of attention and affection. I also maintain the home by cleaning up after pets, keeping food and litter areas tidy, and sending regular updates and photos so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for while they’re away.
About: I have over 3 years experience walking and pet sitting on Rover, and have been the primary pet caregiver for my household, including 3 dogs, for over 12 years. I love showering pets with tons of affection and play, but also respecting them as animals to give them the proper care they need. I’m pretty comfortable with dogs of all sizes and can do feeding, walking, or drop ins to sooth anxiety. Right now I care for dog Lola, and when she’s not around I’m making new fur friends around Patterson Park. I know that your dog is not just a pet, but a cherished member of your family, and let’s be honest it really does takes a village, so I’m here to be part of your pet support team and treat them with with love, respect, and exceptional care. I’m currently self employed and working from home. I know that life can be unpredictable, so I offer flexible availability whether you require daily walks or last minute appointments I can be there to make sure your pet has the care and attention they deserve. Constant Communication with you, the pet parent, is essential as I believe transparency and trust are the building blocks to a successful partnership and positive experience.
“Laura is a great companion and caregiver and trustworthy visitor with our dogs. One of them is really stranger averse and reactive - Laura has helped Reba adjust and connect even letting Laura hang out on the couch with her!! I highly recommend Laura for your pet care needs.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Beltsville
Julie is truly a dog’s best friend! She’s incredibly warm, patient, and genuinely understands that every dog has their own unique personality, quirks, and triggers. She takes the time to build trust with each dog and makes them feel comfortable and safe. She’s also an excellent communicator, keeping us updated and giving us complete peace of mind. We always know our dogs are in the very best hands with Julie, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly!
Layla was absolutely wonderful with our dogs! They take some time to warm up to new people and Layla went at their pace. Within just a few visits the dogs were in love with her! Layla is very communicative about her visits and sends great picture updates. We’ll definitely be hiring her again in the future. Thank you, Layla!!
Connie has been a perfect addition to our pet sitters. We have a pretty anxious smaller pup who takes a while to warm up to strangers and she has been really patient with her. She is also great with our energetic young rottie. She is prompt with her replies to our requests for visits and even with last minute requests.
Diana came at short notice to meet all my rescue dogs with their quarks. She took the time to get to know them and allow them to warm up to her. She was flexible and very easy to work with. She sent me updates letting me know I didn’t need to worry about my babies while I was away. I would recommend her if you’re looking for a caring and compassionate sitter.
Saniya did such an amazing Job during a drop and visit with my dog, Maya who is an 80lb rescue with some energy. Suffice to say Maya needs a gentle but firm caretaker. Saniya was perfect! Before our walk, she asked really important questions about how to take care of Maya. Will be booking her again!
Brandon has been a go-to Rover for a number of years. Our dog Chewie loves him and we trust his judgement and character. Brandon has always been punctual and flexible. We’ve several times had him watch our dog over a week or more stretch and it is invaluable knowing Brandon will take great care of him.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Beltsville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Beltsville choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Beltsville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
