Joanne is a great sitter, she did an excellent job with my Hershey! She stayed in contact with me throughout the evening, checked in with updates regarding Hershey, and shared pictures. This was my first time using a sitter through Rover and I’m so glad I lucked out with Joanne. Her experience with pets was perfect for Hershey (and me lol) since he’s still a young puppy and used to being with me mostly. I will definitely work with her again!

About: Hi everyone 👋 my name is Jenni and my experience with animals started when I was young. I grew up with dogs all my life and had a Lhasa Apso and Pitbull/Akita mix as my first dogs but now have 2 cats. My boyfriend has his own pet sitting/pet boarding business where I regularly help out. I have 19 years of experience taking care of all kinds of dogs and cats, including, young and senior pets, and bunnies/rabbits. I have experience in administering oral, ear, and eye medication. Please let me know if you have any additional questions. Looking forward to working with you and building long lasting friendships and partnerships with you and your pet. 🌞 Pet care fits into my schedule very well as I work locally which gives me the option to work remotely or in person. Therefore, I have a flexible schedule to adjust to the times you need help with. The care I provide for the animals that I will be watching while in their house is following the same schedule routine and safety plans the owners have for their own pet. During the meet & greet I love to learn about the owners pets so I can make sure to give the same quality of care that the owners give☺️

Maura was absolutely wonderful with Duchess! This was my first time leaving Duchess home without me for several days, so I was definitely a little nervous, but Maura made the entire experience so much easier. She was attentive, spent quality time with her, took her on walks, and made sure she was comfortable and well cared for. I especially appreciated how consistent Maura was with sending updates and pictures and letting me know how Duchess was doing throughout the day. I would absolutely book with Maura again. I think Duchess may have officially found herself a new babysitter!

About: I have had such a love for dogs ever since I can remember!! My family grew up with Labrador Retrievers - our two dogs were polar opposite: one was absolutely wild, while the other was super calm and sweet, so I've dealt with a range of different behaviors! Over the years, family friends and neighbors have asked me to dog sit their dogs, with ages ranging from puppies to senior dogs. My schedule is very flexible, as I am home most of the time! I have plenty of flexibility and availability for walks, drop-ins and pet sitting! Whether you need care for the mornings, afternoons, or evenings, I should be free to help :) I care for every pet as if they were my own! I know how important routines are to our dogs, so I like to keep their normal routine as closely as possible to ensure ease, which includes meal times, walks, and play time! I will of course follow any specific instructions or preferences you have for your pet as well. In our spaces, I am respectful and focus on making sure your pet feels comfortable, happy, and cared for. I love taking photos, so you can expect lots of updates on my end to see how your pet is doing!

About: Hi, I’m Elysia! Nice to meet you! I’m new to Rover, but not to taking care of pets! I’m a recent college biology graduate preparing for medical school and I’ve been taking care of my neighbor’s pets since I was in middle school. I have years of experience taking care of both dogs and cats (young & old & many different breeds) for multiple days, including overnight sitting and of course, drop-ins and going on walks! I would love to be your next sitter and your pet’s new friend!! I’m currently in an accelerated graduate program, so my weekday schedule can be busy. I’m generally available for early-morning walks and overnight stays, with more flexibility on weekends! I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe and loved while you are away! I will treat them like family, follow their usual routine, respect your home, and send regular updates and photos so you can feel completely at ease!

About: My passion is making sure pets are cared for to the utmost quality. My pet sitting journey started by walking my neighbors dogs when I was just 12 years old and continued dog walking/pet sitting for family members/friends/clients until graduating college. My pet sitting has grown over the years and I definitely have grown more in love with it. I have a lot of cat sitting experience as well and have always cared for my grandma’s cats when she needs the extra help. I’m currently only pet sitting part-time. I am available after 5pm Monday to Thursday and after 12pm on Fridays. I’m available all weekends. This can be variable as I will also have days off from work which will allow me to have more availability. I live in a spacious 700 sq ft studio by myself. I also don’t have any pets that live with me. I live in a very dog friendly community with a dog park and large fields of grass perfect for off-leash time. I do also have large windows perfect for bird watching for my meow-er companions :)

About: Four years ago I adopted a corgi named Pippin. When I got him, I did not know his history or what environment he was raised in. He came to me incredibly reactive to other dogs, but over time I was able to train him to handle encounters in a safe manner. For the next few years he will be living with my wife while she attends grad school. I would love to care for your dog until my little guy comes back home. I will provide personalized and attentive care to your pup the way I would for my own Pippin. I work an M-F office job that is 10 minutes from my apartment. My evenings and weekends are completely free, but my job still allows me to come home midday to check on your pup if you need any weekday care. My apartment is incredibly pet friendly. My own dog is living with my wife while she attends grad school so I will be able to provide all the care and attention your dog deserves. My apartment is located near a variety of parks and trails, so they will get some wonderful exercise.

Edgar was absolutely awesome! From the beginning he was always quick to respond to our messages and worked around our schedule to arrange the meet-and-greet with our cat, both of which we really appreciated. During the time he dropped in on our cat he always provided detailed information about the visit in the Rover Card, as well as cute pictures, putting us as ease knowing that our pet was being taken great care of. Edgar also went so far above and beyond the call of duty, doing things like letting us know of a questionable package left near our second car in our complex parking lot, staying extra long to give our cat a good brushing, and even taking out our recycling for us on the last day, just to name a few. Edgar was STELLAR and we are certainly looking forward to working with him again in the future! Thanks, Edgar!

About: I’ve had cats my whole life, and started taking care of my own very young. I have a kitty who is 5 years old now and he is my baby.! I’ve been in horse care for about 7 years, as well as watching and caring for other barn animals. Have had dogs in the family and dog/cat sat for friends my whole life as well! Currently have full availability, am open for walks anytime for what fits your routine, and sitting when they need some extra care. I can work with you and your schedule for weekdays for my availability. I know how important it is to see that your pet family has attention when you may have a busy life! I am with my cat a lot, and keep him on a good feeding routine and have outside time everyday. He is mainly indoor, so I have understanding of protecting your animals in the home as well as needing playtime, exercise, and fresh air. Every human and pet friend alike are different!

About: Hello there! I'm Jenn, and I've been caring for dogs since about 2012. Many of my early experiences came from families my mom worked for while nannying and managing their households. While she kept everything running smoothly inside the home, I naturally gravitated toward spending time with the dogs. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of caring for many wonderful pups: • Koni (German Shepherd) – A loyal and gentle boy I cared for from adulthood through his senior years. Caring for him taught me patience and attentiveness when supporting older dogs. • Romeo (Golden Retriever) & Henry (Shih Tzu) – Two sweet pups from the same household who I helped care for from puppyhood. Looking after them taught me how to balance the needs of dogs with very different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. • Lacie (Medium-sized mixed breed) – A young adult dog who was the best of both worlds: very active and playful outside, but also a needy lap dog at home. She taught me how to balance exercise with affection and downtime. • Three German Shepherd–Black Lab mix puppies (3 weeks old) – Tiny foster puppies that required the same level of attention as a human baby. Caring for them gave me hands-on experience with very young dogs and early development. • Casper (English Golden Retriever) – The gentlest and sweetest boy, and definitely one of my favorites. He’s very affectionate and loves companionship, which reinforced how important routine, attention, and emotional comfort are for dogs. I’m experienced and happy to care for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I look forward to getting to know your furry friend and becoming their next buddy! I work in Bethesda, MD Monday through Friday, but I can take my break during the day to visit, feed, and walk your dog :) Depending on their temperament, there’s also the possibility of bringing your dog to my office! • Cozy office space: Bed, food, water, treats, and toys available • Safe travel: Fully equipped to transport dogs safely in my car • Nearby park: Perfect for extra walks and playtime during the day I’ll care for your dog through the evening, giving attention, cuddles, and play sessions after work :) On weekends, I dedicate my time to longer walks, games, and extra TLC. Even during the workweek, though, I take frequent breaks to give pets love, attention, and companionship so they feel happy, safe, and cared for. Your dog’s safety and well-being — both physical and mental — are my top priorities. Before I begin care, I like to meet you and your dog in person and do a walkthrough. Depending on the type of care, this may include: • Their temperament and typical routine • A walkthrough of your home • Food and medication schedules • Locations of necessary supplies • Your veterinarian’s contact information • Any other details specific to your dog’s needs I’ll also ask about your dog’s favorite ways to stay active, play, and feel comfortable. Every dog is unique, and understanding these details helps me provide care that keeps them happy, healthy, and mentally stimulated.

Annika is always so sweet and amazing with Brooklyn!! 🥹💕 She’s been watching her since she was only 8 weeks old and now she’s almost 17 weeks, so I love that she’s been there since the beginning and has gotten to watch her grow! She always has great communication and sends me the cutest pictures and updates. I also really appreciate that she reinforces the things I’m teaching Brooklyn like her commands, sit, her name, etc. She actually takes the time to engage with her and work with her which means so much to me. I always know my baby is in good hands with Annika! 💕🐶

She followed their instructions carefully, was attentive to the little details, and was consistently reliable and communicative.

Michaela is a wonderful person. She took exceptional care of my doggy, Peppy! He had a fun day with her! She texted me when she was on her way, arrived on time, and followed all of my detailed directions. I am so proud of how well he did too. Before her first day caring for him, she met me and I discussed everything with her. I could tell she cared. She took initiative on wanting to learn everything about him and asked great questions. We even went for a little walk. Watching her interact with Peppy made me feel very safe and confident. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my baby bear. He is excited to spend time with you again soon 🤎🐾

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Chevy Chase 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 Chevy Chase 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. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Chevy Chase. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections

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.
