“One of our dogs takes awhile to warm up to new men. Brandon was patient and by the end of a few visits they were best friends. Excellent in all respects.”

About: I am an animal lover! I treat animals as if they are humans with love, support and freedom. I’m there if they need a friend or if there feeling lonely. Rather if it needs attention or a late night potty run I’m there for the rescue! I’m very attentive and supportive. I have 5 years of experience with dogs and over 6 years with cats I’m always up for more fur animal friends. I am very noble and trustworthy, and will always treat your animal the way I would want to be treated. Look no further I’m here to save the day! I’m very responsible and integrity is very much so apart of my character. I will update you on everything that goes on as communication is very important.

About: Hi! I've always loved animals, and caring for them has been a big part of my life. I have 3 years of experience as a veterinary technician in Knoxville, TN, and 4 years working at The Green K9, a dog daycare and grooming salon. I've also volunteered on a 10-day pre-vet trip with VIDA and spent a month working at a horse stable in Kentucky. I'm starting veterinary school in the Caribbean this January and am excited to spend some extra time doing what I love before I go! I also rescued my own dog, Stevie, who has some behavioral challenges of his own. He's taught me so much about patience, understanding, and meeting animals where they are. I know every pet has their own personality and needs, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pets will be cared for with the same love and patience I give my own! I work at Pistarros currently but work at most 5-6 hour days 4-5 days a week. Pet care will be a big part of my daily routine, and I'm able to plan my days around your pet's needs. Whether that means walks, drop-in visits, or spending extra time keeping your pets company, I have plenty of time to give them the attention and care they deserve! I have years of hands-on animal care and veterinary experience l, so your pets safety and comfort are always my priority. I’m happy to follow routines, administer medications, and provide updates to make you feel at ease while your away.

About: I am the #1 person who all my friends and family trust with their pets while they enjoy a quick weekend getaway or vacation. I treat all pets like my own. I did a very good job training my 12 year old Shih Tzu and 8 year old cat! They are very well behaved and loved. I am available 24/7 and I also work from home 🏡. I have a lake nearby that I walk everyday as well! It’s about an hour walk (to and from) if your dog needs a long walk. I have a fenced yard, a small Shih Tzu and a cat to keep your babies company. I can also crate your dog if needed and have plenty of room!

About: I've been pet-sitting throughout the DMV since I was 15. I have extensive experience in pet care. From taking care of 6+ dogs for 10 days, to watching a goat for 2 weeks, and caring for a 160lb English Mastiff, I can handle almost everything that comes my way. I am able to cater my skills and care towards all ages of life. I am experienced in administering medication, vet visits, and exercising hyperactive pets. I am open to bookings from 1 night to 4 weeks in the Montgomery County area. I am currently a student studying at Shady Grove, Maryland so I have plenty of time for pet care. I also enjoy being active and taking long walks/hikes and would appreciate a furry companion in my ventures. I have classes Monday-Thursdays and am available all 7 days to pet-sit, walk, and drop-in. In a client’s home, I ensure a pets routine remains unchanged as much as possible. If they regularly get walked and fed at 8 am, I will ensure they get that at 8 am. I enjoy spending time outside with pets by either walking them or doing homework while sitting near them in the backyard. Pets are also always welcome sleep on the bed or couch alongside me. Or if preferred by the owners, strictly the crate at night. While caring for pets, I ensure the home is kept up by vacuuming, wiping kitchen surfaces, picking up poop in the yard, and taking out trash.

About: I have been taking care of dogs from a very young age. Friends and family have trusted and always relied on me to walk, feed, bathe and stay with their pets while they are out of town. I love caring for dogs, it actually helps to bring me a clear peace of mind and releases me from anxiety. Fur babies brighten my day and fill me with joy I love having a companion by my side especially because I don't have any pets of my own currently. I would love to be given the opportunity to care for and nurture your pets! I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to looking after your pups! I am free 7-days a week, only gone on the weekends for a few hours during the evening. I live in a townhouse and have a fenced-in yard with plenty of room to run around. I don't have any dogs of my own. I love to go on walks throughout the day in my neighborhood to get some sunshine, so your dogs would be taken out multiple times a day. I can easily crate the dogs if necessary. Willing to do whatever to create a fun, loving, and safe environment for your pups!

About: I have had several pets through my life and all have had different personalities. Adapting to them to make them comfortable is important. I also have helped family take care of their new puppies. I’m very comfortable and understanding when dealing with puppies. Currently I can do any time! I don’t mind having an early morning or late night drop in. I am very flexible and want to make this easy for YOU! Just communicate what you need and it’ll be great. I want the animal to be as comfy as possible. Sometimes their human leaving can be stressful! I want to meet them where it’s needed. Not have their routines thrown off.

Cornell did such a wonderful job with my dog Biggie, he’s a year and a half old and has lots of energy! He went on walks and got to play with other dogs! I will definitely hire Cornell again and highly recommend him! He even came for a meet and greet before our scheduled visits, put my nerves at ease! Wonderful experience!!

Hope always takes great care of our pets, follows our care instructions, and communicates timing and needs. We love having Hope care for our pets when we can’t be home as they are always happy and well cared for when we return. This is not the first time we’ve booked with Hope and it won’t be our last. Thank you, Hope!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Clarksburg

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Clarksburg is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $32 per visit. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 15,848 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Clarksburg. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 Clarksburg 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 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.

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 Clarksburg 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 Clarksburg. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% 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.

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.
