“I can't recommend Kevin enough. He was communicative, responsive, and clearly familiar with caring for dogs. They received regular walks and affection, and I swear the place was in better shape than when I left. An excellent caretaker and sitter - highest marks.”
“Vanessa did a fantastic job taking care of our corgi. She followed all of our instructions closely and went above and beyond to make sure our dog was safe, healthy and very happy. Our pup immediately felt comfortable with Vanessa and she also took good care of our house. We fully recommend her as a dog and house sitter.”
“Omar and Claudia were wonderful taking care of my two dogs and house while I was away. Frequent updates and pictures of the them enjoying themselves and happy were very much appreciated and comforting. Would highly recommend!”
“Coralie watched our cat while we were away and was wonderful. She was very flexible with our late booking and gave Yogi fun and entertainment. We got home to a very happy and relaxed cat. She also communicated the entire time very well and the house was wonderfully clean. We’ll definitely book with Coralie again”
“If I could give Eileen more than five stars, I absolutely would! We hired Eileen to stay in our home for six days while caring for our two dogs, who couldn’t be more different. Our one-year-old Golden Retriever, Lilo, is full of energy, always ready to play, and constantly looking for something to do. Our 16-year-old poodle mix is enjoying his retirement and prefers a much slower, more relaxed pace. Eileen immediately understood both of their personalities and tailored her care to each of them perfectly. She kept Lilo engaged, entertained, and even helped her learn new tricks during the week, while also making sure our senior dog was comfortable, happy, and given all the patience and gentle care he deserves. It was obvious from the updates that both dogs absolutely adored her. One of the things we appreciated most was her communication. She sent us frequent updates, photos, and messages that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She followed every instruction we left, paid attention to every detail, and treated our dogs as if they were her own. When we returned home, our house was spotless—honestly, it looked just as good as when we left. It’s rare to find someone who not only takes exceptional care of your pets but also treats your home with the same level of respect and care. The greatest compliment we can give is that we never once worried while we were away. We were able to fully enjoy our trip because we knew our dogs were in the best possible hands. We cannot recommend Eileen highly enough. If you’re looking for someone who is kind, responsible, communicative, trustworthy, and genuinely loves animals, look no further. We will absolutely be booking her again!”
“Karen sent me lots of pictures and updates! And she wasn't bothered by my bratty dog who growls a little bit when she first meets someone! She will be our go-to sitter for any future trips!”
About: Neighbors, family and friends trusted and relied on me to walk, bathe, feed, and play with their fur babies and can count on me to love their pets🐾 I currently have a wide availability during the week and weekends (select Sundays available upon request) for Mondays-Saturdays for the morning hours (7am-11am), afternoons (12 pm-4:30pm) and evening hours (4:30pm-9pm). I have a clean and quiet home and open space for play and big couch for cuddles and dog tv watching. My house has three levels for any fur baby to sit on the landing spot of the stairs
About: For the past ten years, I have adopted and taken care of different senior rescue dogs. And puppies alike. I have been the primary dog watcher for my extended family and friends for many years. I love all dogs of all shapes, sizes and personalities and I'm sure I'll love yours as well!! 😁 I'm currently working a full time job. However I work very close to home. I can walk your dog in the morning late afternoon and night before bed and always try for 3 walks a day. If you would rather I house sit your dog I can stay at your place and watch your furry friend there. I can also just come to you and walk your dog on the weekends. Let's get your dog the care they need!! 😁 I have an apartment which I own and am comfortable with your dog going anywhere they would like. While I prefer to let dogs roam my space and be at ease. I can crate them if you would prefer. If I house sat at your place I would follow your instructions and normal house rules to the letter.
“Yessenia took excellent care of our two pups & our home! Her communication was great throughout our trip, and she provided a lot of pictures. We would love to have her sit for us again!”
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life! Over my 25 years, my family has had two Rottweilers, a Pitbull, and a cat, all of whom lived long, loved lives before sadly passing from old age. Today, my family has a Cocker Spaniel, several Yorkies, and two cats, all of whom I absolutely adore! Having cared for everything from large, energetic breeds to smaller dogs and cats, I’m comfortable with animals of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I’ve also experienced caring for pets as they grow older, so I understand the importance of patience, gentleness, and adapting to their needs. I recently moved into my own place, and one of the things I miss most is coming home to my family’s dogs and cats. That’s a big part of why I’d love to become a pet sitter! I genuinely enjoy the companionship animals bring, and I’d be thrilled to give your furry family members the same love, attention, and affection I’ve always given my own. I know pets aren’t just animals; they’re family. My goal is to make sure yours feel just as safe, comfortable, and loved with me as they do with you! My schedule is pretty flexible! I typically work from home or close by, which means I can be a very present and attentive sitter rather than leaving your pets alone for long periods. Whether your pet needs regular walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, or just someone to keep them company throughout the day, I’m happy to accommodate their routine as much as possible. I’m also open to overnight stays and boarding! Since I live on my own, I have the flexibility to make your pet feel welcome and give them plenty of one-on-one attention. I understand that every pet has different needs, so I’m always happy to communicate and coordinate with owners to find a schedule that works best for everyone! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my top priorities! Having grown up caring for several different breeds, including large dogs and smaller companions, I understand that every animal has its own personality, boundaries, and needs. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll do my best to maintain their usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure. That includes following feeding instructions, keeping up with walks and bathroom breaks, providing plenty of affection, and respecting any specific rules or preferences you have. I recently moved into my own place, where I have a fenced yard for your furry friends to safely enjoy some fresh air, playtime, and exercise! My home offers a peaceful, comfortable environment where your pets can relax and receive plenty of individual attention. I’ll always supervise outdoor activities and make sure your pet feels safe and welcome. I also believe communication is incredibly important! I’m more than happy to send regular pictures, videos, and updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is in good hands. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets the way I’ve always treated my own: with love, patience, kindness, and lots of cuddles (if they’re into that, of course!).
“I was nervous about leaving my Rosie alone for the weekend, but Shakuntala’s presence put me at ease. She was so attentive to her and kept me updated several times throughout the day. I never had to worry or wonder about how Rosie was doing. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to be sure your pet is in good hands.”
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!
“I was out of town for 10 days I believe she did a great job with my dog except I came home my brand new coach bag was chewed up by the dog my dog cage was messed up the hinges are bent and twisted my furniture was scratched she put my plant outside and fried it 😢 I am not sure why she put my plant there its a house plant. I was very clear that the puppy should be caged and watched if not bc she is a chewer. I came back disappointed and now not only I have to replace a brand new bag and the dog cage and my planr. Im not sure what to say i don't understand happened she didnt let me know i just got home to discover it. I dont know what to do about the damaged stuff. She wasn't terrible but with these things I think id look for someone else.”
About: I am happy to help out with all pets! I have grown up with a range of animals(dogs, cats, turtles, birds, fish) and currently own two cats. I am a teacher, so I am looking to help out in the afternoon or in the evenings. Outside of that, I am pretty flexible. I am calm and adaptable, and willing to let your animal take the lead. I am happy to help out with whatever they need, and prioritize animal comfort and safety!
“Rachel is a professional and reliable dogsitter. We felt comfortable leaving our two dogs and house in her good hands. We appreciated the regular updates and pictures a lot.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Chevy Chase View is $55
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Chevy Chase View
Michaela was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of our two cats over Halloween weekend, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. She was attentive, caring, and reliable, and it gave us such peace of mind knowing our cats were in good hands while we were away. We really appreciated the time and attention she gave them and how comfortable she made us feel throughout the experience. We would happily book Michaela again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, trustworthy, and dependable pet sitter!
Annah and Meara were truly so great with our two girls! They stayed with them for 11 nights, and we felt so at ease, got lots of photos and updates, and could tell Pepper and Dot felt very cared for! And as a plus, they took excellent care of our place. Pepper and Dot can be shy but they immediately loved both Annah and Meara right away! We are so happy!
Karen stayed with our anxious dog, Gus, while we were away for 5 nights. She took great care of Gus and sent frequent detailed updates and photos which we loved! Gus had some GI upset while we were gone and Karen was so communicative about his symptoms and offered solutions along the way. We are so happy we found a great sitter for Gus that we can trust and we would definitely recommend her!
Rachel is amazing! We had a last minute change of plans and needed a dog sitter on short notice. Rachel was extremely communicative and kind. Our dog Barney loved her and had a wonderful time and we got such sweet pictures from her. We strongly recommend her to others and would love to have her dog sit again!!
Christina was a wonderful sitter for our dogs! One of our dogs can be a little skeptical of new people, but she managed to earn his trust on the very first day! She was incredibly communicative, attentive, and caring, and truly treated our dogs as if they were her own. She even offered to stay very late until we were on our way home from the airport, just to make sure they were well taken care of. She genuinely goes above and beyond, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands. We couldn’t recommend Christina more highly to anyone looking for someone to care for their fur babies!!
Toni spent three days in our apartment with our aging cavachon and it was a great success. Our dog is usually standoffish with strangers but she was very comfortable with Toni, who sent us photos and texts on how things were going, including daily medications. I would enthusiastically recommend Toni.
Juliette did a wonderful job caring for Phoebe and Addy. She is great at communicating, sent lots of pictures, and adapted to our care schedule with enthusiasm. Her extensive pet care experience set our minds at ease, we knew she could handle anything that may arise. Trustworthy, kind, passionate about animals, Juliette is our dream dog sitter!
Everything was perfect start to finish. Good communication with our booking request. Sabria took the time to meet our dog Mandy and get to know the lay of the land. Reached out often while we were away to check in and send photos. Clearly loves animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. Our dog has a few issues on both behavior and medical fronts. Zero issues on her watch. We’re super relieved to have Sabria in our midst.
Julianne did everything we asked during a two-day overnight for our big boy. She visited beforehand to provide reassurance that this was a job she was up to. And she sure was up to it. She communicated very effectively throughout. She instantly bonded with Zeka and was there for him throughout the difficult nights of his needing to pee frequently. We could see that Julianne is very good with animals of all shapes, sizes and kinds. We couldn't be happier with our experience and highly recommend Julianne for your pet support needs. We will definitely be reaching out to her in the future.
Tamara has stayed with our cat a number of times and is so understanding and patient. After we lost our dog the cat went into a depression for several months and Tamara displayed nothing but love for her. She’s faithful at adhering to a very specific feeding plan since the cat recently had thyroid radiation treatment. We’re very happy to use Tamara for pet care.
Azucena is incredible and we highly recommend her services!!! Our dog is on the shyer side. But, Azucena went above and beyond to make sure our dog is comfortable. Now, our dog loves being with her!! She is very communicative and always provides updates. We are so happy to have found her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Chevy Chase View is $37 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $87 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Chevy Chase View walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Chevy Chase View maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 View 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!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Chevy Chase View. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% 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.
