“We loved Delina and our cat loved her too! Delina is a great communicator, on time, and honestly very easy to talk to. Highly recommend her and will be hiring her for pet sitting again in the future!”

About: Through previous and most recent positions, I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments through pet sitting and dog walking. My responsibilities included feeding, administering basic medications, maintaining exercise schedules, cleaning litter boxes, monitoring behavior, and providing companionship and enrichment. While I work full-time, I’m available for evening care after 6 PM depending on location, along with flexible availability on my days off for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I provide reliable in-home pet care by maintaining pets’ routines, ensuring they’re fed, exercised, comfortable, and given plenty of love and attention while their owners are away.
“Matthew is fantastic! He took great care of our cat while we were away and provided thorough updates with pictures. We are so happy that Lily was well taken care of and that we didn't need to worry about her. 100% would rebook and recommend!”
“Natalie was absolutely stellar. She not only provided our kitty with the basics, but went above and beyond giving her love and snuggles and cleaning up any messes she encountered. She even did some tidying which was a lovely surprise to come home too. We are so thrilled with this service!”
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind. I provide attentive, personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs, whether they’re energetic puppies or gentle seniors. I have experience with basic training for young pets, helping reinforce good habits, and I’m patient and compassionate with older animals who may need extra support or mobility assistance. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy while giving owners peace of mind. I can work part time and spend as much time as needed with each pet. I love taking care of animals. Pet care is a part of my daily routine I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, play, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention. Throughout the week, I stay flexible to accommodate different needs. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment. I follow their pet’s usual routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks and any specific instructions. I also keep the home tidy, provide updates (Pictures), and make sure pets feel secure in their familiar environment. At the end of the day I want each pet that I meet to have a loving care experience and feel relaxed and well cared for at all times.
About: Dogs are family to me. When I was 9 years old we had a dog named Moti (means pearl in Hindi). Moti was a brother to me. He was always with us, playing in the yard, swimming in the pool and cuddling with us when we were sad and happy both. Since 2015, I have been dog-sitting a friends' dog named Cookie - she is a rescue dog who is part Jack Russell and part Beagle. Cookie is now part of the family and comes over for weeks at a time even when her owner is in town. I work from home, have a huge fenced-in backyard, can take dogs to the Media Arts Lab (co-share space) I sometimes work from, and am constantly going walking, hiking or running. It's a comfortable and warm environment for a dog. I'll provide plenty of care and attention. Looking forward to welcoming new dog friends into the house.
About: I have experience with both cats and dogs, mostly cats, but love both dearly. I have had pets in my house ever since I was a kid and enjoy their company greatly. Taking care of animals comes to me naturally and am excited to meet all types of pets. I am happy to help play and exercise your pets as needed and instructed :) I am currently a college student so I have many times where I am either in school or studying but I know for sure Tuesdays I am free. Other days I would need some sort of heads up to see if I can fit into my schedule. For instance Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays work for me if I have a couple of days notice ahead of time. I will be sure to follow thorough instructions when it comes to having to care for your pets in your house. I understand that having a space with pets can be a handful especially when gone so I will do everything in my power to make both parties comfortable!
“Thalia was great! She came to do drop ins with my dog and cat over the weekend and did a great job. The boys were very happy with their care. Thalia even was able to do a quick meet and greet prior to the scheduled drop ins to make sure the boys were comfortable with her.”
“Leslie was fantastic with Sage as per usual. She was flexible and communicated so well the entire way. We had an issue with my key fob and she was very accommodating and understanding when it came to figuring out how to get in my apartment.”
“Tandy is AMAZING!! Organized, considerate, responsible - everything a person could want in a sitter watching over their beloved fur babies. With Tandy cat-sitting I was confident they were safe and well-cared for.”

Highly recommend her services!! Thank you so much Lindsay!!
Amy did a fabulous job with our dogs! She was very considerate of their needs, especially during a few thunderstorms that passed through. She sent lots of pictures and helpful updates. We felt very comfortable with how our dogs were cared for during our vacation. It helped us fully relax and enjoy our time away!
Alexis was absolutely amazing while we were out of town! She took such great care of Uno and gave me complete peace of mind while we were away. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Uno was happy, well cared for, and in great hands the entire time. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker!
Catherine did an amazing job watching my babies while I was out of town. I am so glad I found her on here! It can be difficult finding someone trusted that is also good with your pets. Catherine came right in and immediately my two dogs took a liking to her. Thank you so much Catherine I’ll def be reaching out again soon!
Mark was great. He was flexible, easy to communicate with, and clearly very caring with my pets. It gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing they were being looked after by someone attentive and responsible. I would definitely recommend Mark to anyone looking for someone reliable to care for their furry loved ones.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Bladensburg 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 Bladensburg 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 .

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 Bladensburg with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
