Top rated Burtonsville house sitters

“Omar and Claudia are exceptional! They took excellent care of my puppy Ellie while I was away on a weekend trip. After our initial meet-and-greet, my husband and I felt comfortable and confident that my fur baby would be in good hands. Omar and Claudia are professional adults who are very polite and have kind, caring hearts. As a frequent traveler, I feel so fortunate to have met Omar and Claudia, whom I can trust, and who can give good care and love to my baby Ellie.”


“Madeline did such a wonderful job taking care of our pups in our home for the weekend! She was super responsible and responsive and it was clear our babies had a wonderful time with her. We will definitely reach out to Madeline again for future dogsitting!”


“Katherine did a wonderful job taking care of our older dog! We loved the pictures and updates on how Halo was doing. Halo loved getting her walks (and sniffs) in each day! We are looking forward to having Katherine stay with our girl again this summer!”


“Sierra took excellent care of our fur baby TRUE🐶🐾! We were updated on all his walks play time and play dates with his new fur friends boarding with him for four days! I felt confident with our meeting with Sierra that True was in a safe environment and welcoming!”


“This was our first Rover experience and our sitter did not disappoint. Xena was wonderful with our husky. She was punctual and communicative throughout the evening. We look forward to having her return for our next event.”


“Review for Paola: Paola took care of our two dogs, Modo and Millie, and our cat, Snap, for 10 days—and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the start, she was communicative, professional, and warm. She took the time to get to know each of our pets’ unique personalities and routines, and it was clear they felt completely at ease with her. Throughout our time away, Paola sent regular updates, including photos and notes that gave us complete peace of mind. Modo and Millie got plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles, and Snap—even though he’s usually a bit reserved—seemed totally relaxed in her care. We came home to happy, healthy pets and a tidy home. Paola went above and beyond, and we’re so grateful for the love and attention she gave our fur family. We would absolutely work with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a truly thoughtful and dependable sitter.”


“I have used Rover before, I teach and train dog agility, and I work on Rover. I am particular. Sarah exceeded my expectations. My boys are timid with strangers, she completely won them over the first day and a week later I wasn’t sure they wanted us to come home. She has a way with dogs, she plays with them, gives them lots of attention, cuddles them and it shows - you can see in the pics they fell in love with her. Of course she is also very responsible, clean and sends the best pics! I am not giving Sarah a 5 star review… I’m giving her 10 ⭐️”


“Alissa is a fantastic pet sitter!! She stayed at our house for a long weekend. I met with her ahead of time to show her around my house and to tell her about Bentley. She is warm, caring, very responsible and trustworthy. The weekend went very smoothly and she texted me updates every day. I knew my dog was in good hands with Alissa.”

“We had so much peace being away leaving our pets in the care of Jennifer! She followed their schedule great and even had to overcome the challenges of their dislike of the rain :) I appreciated her updates with us along with great pictures! Our home was left as we left it. It was obvious that Jennifer enjoys caing for the individual need of the pets she cares for! Thank you Jennifer and thank you Rover!!!”


“Emily stayed with two of our cats for about a week. She did a great job, and she even won the affections of the cat who is most suspicious of strangers. She communicated well with us, and we came home to a clean space. Would recommend!”


“My pups can be standoffish with strangers but Cedric walked in and won them over immediately. Cedric helped me out on short notice and on a holiday, and left my place clean and neat. I would definitely have him watch my dogs again.”


“Kemmesha was amazing! From the beginning she was engaged with our 3 animals and sent us photos and videos while we were away. It made us feel much better about being gone for a week to know there was someone who cared watching our girls. Thank you!”


“Ashley did a first-time 5 night housesit for my almost 10 year old lab mix, and she did a great job. She followed my directions and gave me daily updates and photos. She was very responsive through the app. I felt confident my dog was well-cared for and would use her again.”


“Lauren did a very nice job watching Cooper, a very high energy doggie. Cooper was very happy and well cared for. Lauren accommodated every ask regarding house and pet care. This was a house sitting. The house was in better condition than I left it. Thank you Lauren. I will use Lauren again.”


“Lisa was amazing! Our Zoey is grumpy with new people but warmed right up to her! 10/10 would recommend to anybody. She was professional and communicated clearly with us. She even made sure to send pictures for my boys of the dogs' presents from Santa!”


“Marina was nothing short of an amazing sitter! Came home to a very happy dog. She maintained our Mochi’s routine and was even mindful of getting potty breaks in before bad weather rolled in. Marina was communicative, thoughtful, caring with Mochi, very respectful of our home and altogether reliable. I offer the highest recommendation!”


“Carmen was great! Very professional and communicative, we’re so grateful she was able to accommodate a last minute booking for us. Our dog had a great time with her and he seemed very happy and relaxed!”


“Dan is the best! We felt completely at ease leaving Waffles at home with him. He was very easy going but also attentive to detail. He provided waffles with his medicine, vitamins, and walks. Highly recommend.”
