“Lucy took wonderful care of Oakley over a long weekend while I was away. She was attentive, punctual, and very sweet to my boy. Stop the search and book her for anything you need.”
About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and have been around animals for most of my life. I grew up with a family dog and helped with feeding, walks, playtime, and daily care. I've also cared for my boyfriend's cat, including feeding, providing companionship, and maintaining the litter box. In addition, my dad has two dogs that I see regularly, giving me experience with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I genuinely love animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I will treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention that I would give my own. 🐾💕 I work full-time Monday through Friday from 9:30 AM to 6:00 PM, which allows me to provide care before and after work, as well as on weekends. My schedule is consistent and predictable, making it easy to plan visits, walks, and check-ins. I'm available for evening care and weekend bookings, and I'm committed to ensuring pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while in my care. I understand the importance of maintaining a pet's routine and will do my best to accommodate their individual needs. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by following their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a safe environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for while they're away. 🐾💕
“We really appreciate Zach being available and taking such good care of our three cats and our one foster cat! He navigated our house well and treated all the cats with tenderness. Thank you!”
“Amy was absolutely wonderful with our two cats. Super attentive, sent us tons of great photos while we were away - you could tell the boys were really delighted to hang out with her. She even brought them cat nip from her garden! We felt really confident with Amy looking after everything and everyone at home, she’s a truly excellent sitter!”
“Abigail took such great care of my two floofs in the afternoons. They loved her! She was available last minute multiple times, took them on great walks and wore them out just enough for a great afternoon nap. I got comfortable enough with her that I didn’t even worry anymore and was able to focus on my work. Very kind and reliable sitter!”
About: I’ve always loved animals. I’ve taken care of a few dogs (not any cats yet!). I love connecting with animals. Very big dog person and a very active individual! I work part-time at a country club so I have a lot of free time on my hand and want to use it spending with animals! unfortunately, I don’t do pet boarding at my home but at clients homes I’ll be very attentive ,organized, focused on cleanliness and the animals care!
About: Ever since I could remember, I've been around animals throughout my life. Growing up, I was able to have dogs, cats, fish, birds, and even hamsters around to call my family. Animal Planet was one of my favorite channels, Martha Speaks was one of my favorite PBS Kids shows, and I thought I'd be a veterinarian as an adult! I believe my love for animals comes from my mom and her love of dogs, as she always had a love for Yorkshire Terriers when I was younger. Although I am not a dog parent at the moment (I hope to be soon!), I treat my mom's three standard-bred poodles as my own whenever she's on vacation or needs some time away. I also took care of 2 litters of 10 puppies in the last 2 years, preparing food, cleaning and sanitizing their designated areas, all while they were just a few weeks old. Ultimately, I'd love to get into dog training for puppies as well. With a lifetime of love for animals , and a few years as a professional sitter under my belt, I can assure any pet parent that your fur child will always be loved and cared for as if they were my own family. I'm looking forward to meeting your babies! I'm usually up pretty early and pretty late as I work as a freelance photographer and videographer during the day alongside my part-time day job in food service. I am able to be of service before 8:30am on the weekdays for walks and check-ins, and after 4pm for any help you may need. I'm very efficient with staying on top of routines, schedules, and anything that your fur baby will need. Keeping an eye on them is in my nature as well, as I can never go too long without checking on them to make sure everything is good, even during downtime from playing, eating and walking.
About: Hello World! My name is Rouday and I have been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old. In those 25 years I have had the privilege of raising three dogs, all different shapes and sizes. I enjoy taking dogs on long walks, playing with them at dog parks, and loving up on my furry friends. I currently have an extremely flexible schedule as I work remotely and control my own workflow. I also have two young children that require schedule flexibility. Very safe secure building, which includes dedicated dog walking areas, and also room to groom pets as well. Location is also close to some great parks and walking paths that dogs will enjoy
About: I treat every dog as if they were my own. Through caring for my own dog and helping friends and neighbors with theirs, I’ve learned how important consistency, patience, and positive interactions are. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Caring for pets is already a part of my everyday life. I care for my own dog every day, so I’m used to maintaining a consistent routine with walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. I enjoy spending time with animals and can easily adjust my schedule to make sure each pet receives reliable, loving care and stays comfortable in their usual routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll provide a safe, clean, and loving environment while following their normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Matthew was always quick to respond and took great care of our pets while we were gone. He sent multiple pictures and a nice summary each visit. Would highly recommend and will definitely book him again!”
About: I have taken care of a wide range of pets since I was 13. I have house-sat, walked dogs, bathed dogs, and taken care of cats in my neighborhood and I have fed and interacted with a variety or reptiles as well. I'm a grad student so I have a few classes over the summer, but overall my schedule is fairly free and I am open to early morning or late night walks or pet care. I can cater to any pet needs or owner requirements to make sure that your fur baby is safe. My apartment has a long path in which lends itself to nice long walks. I will respect the space of any living spaces I visit and abide by the expectations.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, including a Rottweiler, Labrador Retriever, and Shih Tzu. This experience has taught me how to handle everything from high-energy playtime to gentle companionship for smaller breeds. I’m attentive, patient, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I tailor my care to each dog’s unique needs and always prioritize their well-being, routine, and happiness. Pet care fits well into my schedule. I work full-time during the week, but I’m available after 3 PM most days and have open availability on weekends. This allows me to dedicate quality time to walks, playtime, feeding, and providing companionship. I’m committed to making sure pets receive attentive, reliable care and feel comfortable while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, take them on walks, give them plenty of attention and playtime, and make sure they get any specific care requested by the owner. I also keep the home tidy and provide updates so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. Having cared for a Rottweiler, Labrador Retriever, and Shih Tzu, I’m comfortable with different sizes, energy levels, and personalities. My goal is always to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for every pet.

Amy did a fabulous job with our dogs! She was very considerate of their needs, especially during a few thunderstorms that passed through. She sent lots of pictures and helpful updates. We felt very comfortable with how our dogs were cared for during our vacation. It helped us fully relax and enjoy our time away!
Catherine did an amazing job watching my babies while I was out of town. I am so glad I found her on here! It can be difficult finding someone trusted that is also good with your pets. Catherine came right in and immediately my two dogs took a liking to her. Thank you so much Catherine I’ll def be reaching out again soon!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Hyattsville 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 Hyattsville 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 .

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

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.
