“Juna continues to take fantastic care of my hound mix! My dog is always happy to see Juna, and I can tell from her consistent communication and her lovely walking/drop-in photos that my dog continues to enjoy Juna's care and company throughout each booking. Juna has proven to be capable and resourceful throughout all of her visits with my dog, and I'm confident she would be the same with yours, too!”
About: Grew up on a farm with a variety of animals, always had a pet in my life. Understand the nonverbal queues of cats and dogs. I am currently in nursing school through the army therefore I am available most weekends and holidays, possibly weekdays after 6 pm, for special occasions. I can follow the exact routine that you set, less stress for you and less stress on them, respecting their space and I prioritize safety.
About: Looking for a reliable, adaptable friend to visit your dog midday? I've got you! And I'd love to meet your dog! My dog passed away in 2021 and I've been looking for opportunities to make some new furry friends ever since! I've played and walked and taken care of many dogs of many breeds and sizes at various levels of training. If you have specific training or behavioral goals for your dog, I will be sure to incorporate that into my visits. Currently, I work at my full-time job from 3:30am-noon and can be available as soon as 12:30pm or as soon as it takes me to travel to your pet's location. I am very flexible when it comes to the specifics in how you and your pet would like our visits to work! We could go for walks on a specific path, play to exercise and deplete built up energy, or simply run around in the fenced-in backyard for potty time.
“Drew did an excellent job caring for our corgi over Thanksgiving. We really appreciated his willingness to do a meet and greet in advance. He was polite, professional, friendly and communicative. All of our directions were followed to the letter and we came home to a tidy space and a happy dog :)”
About: Hello! I'm Ellie and am available for occasional walking & drop-in visits. I love dogs and have been doing river for the last 5 years! I can also board and do doggy daycare (I do own a medium sized 10 year old Thurman as well but he loves new buddies!). I have 2 dog loving kids so for all boarding clients - dogs need to be kid-friendly. I love dogs - I will take them on long walks and plenty of playtime/pets! I've always loved dogs and used to volunteer with dogs at animal shelters and I used to work for a pet sitting company where I took care of all types of dogs and cats on the regular! Right now I welcome all sizes and I used to own large Goldens growing up :) Let me know if you have any questions! I am fully available right now for morning, afternoon and evening visits/walks. Weekly Monday through Friday (some weekends too). I love dogs and look forward to meeting furry friends!! I have an unfenced backyard but will keep any dog on a leash anytime we go outside. I will take them on walks around my neighborhood.
“Sam was wonderful. We needed someone to take care of our dog on relatively short notice for a cross country trip for the holidays and Sam was not only able to come check on and walk her twice a day but when we unexpectedly needed Luna out of the house for a few days, Sam was able to bring her home as well. Really excellent caretaker, flexible, and we will absolutely keep Sam in mind for all future needs!”
“Vidya did an amazing job caring for my 14 yo cat, who warmed to her immediately which is rare. Vidya is thoughtful, professional, thorough, and incredibly knowledgeable. She worked with me to ensure we had a communication plan given the 7-hour time difference while I was away and sent photos and videos each day. Wookie thrived under her care, taking her daily medicine easily which is not always the case with sitters. I have already booked Vidya to care for Wookie again and highly recommend her.”
About: Active lifestyle especially suited for high energy dogs. Dependable and trustworthy caretaker. Will provide active fun walks as needed. Will take care of your dog as of my own. Have a daytime job and will be available to house sit your dog at your home if necessary. Weekends are generally available for visiting and walks. Will provide house-sitting service for your pet at your home or make visits for caretaking and walks outside regular daytime work hours. Dependable and committed caretaker.
About: I’ve taken care of animals my entire life! I had my first dog, adopted from Dogs XL, in 2014. I love big dogs, little dogs, and medium dogs. All breeds and types (with a preferred love for rescues!). I love learning the personalities of new animals, and learning their quirks and how they show their love. I just graduated from college and am currently looking for long-term employment. Due to only having part-time gigs right now, your animal will have frequent walks, supervised time outside, and pets. I am willing to be flexible in my schedule for home visits too, coming as frequently as desired. I have a fenced yard and no other animals in the house, but two parents, a brother, and myself (all pet lovers), so there will be lots of people to keep your animals company and play.
About: Hi, I’m an attorney who works from home and is saving for a wedding and a house. I grew up with a chihuahua in my family and started dog sitting for friends in college. Since then, I’ve continued caring for dogs for friends I made in law school. Working from home allows me to give your pup plenty of attention, walks, and love while keeping them safe and happy. I’d love to help care for your furry friend! I work from home with a minimal meeting schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your dog throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just extra attention, I can easily adjust my routine to meet your pet’s needs. I live in a spacious apartment adjacent to a large park, so I have the resources and space to keep your pet happy. I also live in a dog friendly area.

Evan has been such a wonderful friend to Sunny. He is very observant and keeps me informed of significant changes in Sunny’s mood and/or mobility. Sunny has been enjoying her walk with Evan so much that she even gets up on her own when he visits (she doesn’t do that with me)!
Abigail was amazing! I have four cats and needed 1 drop in visit each day for food/water/litter box. I really appreciated the recaps each day with pictures. It was a huge relief knowing my fur babies were in good hands while we were away. We will absolutely be using her for future bookings.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Chevy Chase on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 17,355 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Chevy Chase. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
