I prioritize their needs as well as their owners to ensure everyone is comfortable with the experience and to give my new dog friend a vacation while their owner is away! Dog sitting is just as exciting for me as it can be for a dog getting to meet new people and do fun things!
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with plenty of hands-on experience caring for pets with different personalities, needs, and abilities. I have six cats of my own and also care for a feral cat colony, which has taught me a lot about patience, trust, and meeting animals where they are. I also help care for my family’s dogs, including a very happy three-legged mutt who reminds me every day that a disability doesn’t get in the way of a wonderful life! I’m comfortable administering medications to both cats and dogs, including insulin injections. I also practice cooperative care, helping animals feel safe and comfortable during medication and handling rather than making those experiences scary. I believe building trust and respecting an animal’s boundaries can make a huge difference in their well-being. When pet parents are away, I love doing more than just the basics. I enjoy spending quality time with animals, learning their personalities, and planning enrichment activities that keep them mentally stimulated, engaged, and happy. Whether that means playtime, sniffing games, puzzle feeders, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs. I also love learning all the little things that make your pets feel at home! Tell me their favorite treats, toys, hiding spots, sleeping spaces, blankets, routines, and quirky habits. The more I know about what makes them comfortable and happy, the better I can recreate the familiar comforts of home while you’re away. My goal is for your pets to feel like you’ve just stepped out for coffee rather than gone on vacation! I know how much pets mean to their families, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, compassion, and attention I give my own. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, enriched, and well cared for while you’re away, so you can enjoy your time apart knowing they’re in good hands! I currently work a desk job but can visit your pet in the morning, afternoon, and evening. I unwind by spending time with animals, so being with your pet will probably be my favorite part of my day. It will not just be another item on my to do list. At home I live on a 1/3 of acer with a fenced in yard. Inside I have a 6 cats with lots of cat trees and space for cats to go up and get a good view of the world. We also have separate rooms for cats (or small dogs) to have their own space if they get overwhelmed or want their own space

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for pets has always been something that comes naturally to me. As a dog and cat parent myself, I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I truly enjoy getting to know each pet and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I am also bilingual in English and Spanish, which allows me to communicate comfortably with a wider range of pet owners and ensure clear understanding of your pet's needs and care instructions. My goal is to give your pets the same care, attention, and affection I would want someone to give my own. You can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family members are in caring and dependable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work during the week, but I’m available in the evenings after 6pm for dog walks, drop-ins, and quality time with your pets. On weekends, I have more flexibility and can offer boarding and extended care. Because I have a set work schedule, I’m able to plan ahead and make sure every pet I care for gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. I truly enjoy spending my free time with animals, so pet care is something I genuinely look forward to. When your pet stays in my home, they’ll have plenty of space to relax, play, and move around comfortably. I have a friendly Labradoodle and a cat who have their own separate areas of the home, so your pet can have some company if they’re comfortable around other animals. I always respect each pet’s personality and your preferences, and I’m happy to keep pets separated or crated if that’s what makes them feel safest and most comfortable. My goal is to provide a calm, safe, and welcoming home where every pet can feel comfortable while they’re away from their family.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - District Heights
Danielle was very pleasant and great with Butter! She did a check-in visit to feed and walk him, Butter was in great hands, she made sure he was fed, exercised, and gave some companionship while we were away. Her communication was prompt, along with updates. I will definitely be reaching out to Danielle again when Butter need another visit!

Natalie is amazing and went above and beyond at very late notice to make my Dante happy and comfortable while I was away for work. She was flexible with a very rushed meet-and-greet and remained flexible throughout the stay, even as I added another sameday drop-in. She had great treats and toys for him and took tons of pictures. I know he loved the walks and getting outside. I’m very appreciative and grateful for her time and care! Will absolutely be booking again.

They were absolutely amazing. I just moved to the area from Texas and had to travel to Colorado for my niece’s birthday, but couldn’t bring my dog. My usual pet sitter is back in Texas, so I was unexpectedly without pet care. When the dates of my trip changed, they were generous and flexible enough to watch Scooby a little longer. Scooby normally takes a while to warm up to new people and can be particularly hesitant around men, but he bonded with them incredibly quickly. They truly exceeded my expectations. I will absolutely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and wonderful with pets.

Bria was great with our dog. She took the time to do a meet and greet beforehand and was able to accommodate doing a drop in visit with short notice. Highly recommend her! We will definitely be reaching out again, when we need someone to check in on our dog. Thanks Bria!

Anh was wonderful! My dog has separation anxiety, and Anh truly went above and beyond to help her feel safe and comfortable. Communication was excellent throughout, and as a first-time Rover user, she made the whole experience easy and stress-free. I felt confident leaving my dog in her care and would absolutely book with her again. I highly recommend Anh.

Stephanne is great with my 3 dogs. She can handle taking all 3 of my dogs on walks together, has so much experience with dog behavior, and she’s very attentive to their health and well being. She is incredibly reliable; I have such peace of mind knowing she’s taking care of my dogs.

The average cost of Dog Sitting in District Heights is $25 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $29 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 15,535 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across District Heights. 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 District Heights 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.

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.
