“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!”

“Victoria unfortunately had to deal with my kitty passing away while I was away. She acted quickly and took him to the vet where he could be held until I returned the next day. I am grateful for her help and resolve to do the right thing.”
“Noah was always punctual, communicated very well and followed all instructions we sent him. He always sent good photos and updates and handled our cat very well even when she was having some separation anxiety.”
About: I have a wonderful 6 year old Shiba Inu and have been caring for a wide variety of pets since my kids were very young. We currently also have a 15 year old hermit crab, a rabbit we keep in a separate room, and have previously cared for several fish, frogs, and 5 large Blue Swedish ducks. We frequently dog sit for our friends and neighbors. Someone will always be available to watch or play with the dogs due to remote work and flexibility. We are typically up early and start out with a walk. Once we are confident the dogs are getting along, we can let them out in the yard together; otherwise, we make sure to give each of them their private space. We provide water inside and out and change it often - your dog can have its own bowls. We typically feed our dog 2 x per day but can accommodate any variation for your dog. We also provide some doggie treats, if permitted. We have portable fencing should the dogs need to be separated inside or out. We have a fenced in yard and garden and a very well behaved Shiba Inu. Dogs will always get a good amount of attention and have plenty to do. They are allowed on the couch if it's alright with you, and we have a crate if needed. The location is very quiet with few cars.
“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!”
“Victoria and her son communicated in a very timely manner. Photos were sent every visit and if something came up they addressed it with me as well. It was nice to have them as pet sitters and recommend them! Thank you once again!”
“I only have the most positive things to say about Leila! She is responsive, sweet and very caring. I feel completely comfortable leaving her in charge of my home and my cats. Thank you!!”
“Karachi's visit today was to get to know our dog a little bit before staying overnight several later this week. She learned her way around the house and was gentle in her interactions with our dog. She asked great questions. We were pleased.”
“We utilized Kevin’s services for the first time during my outpatient surgery for a drop in visit. He inspires trust, which is extremely important on a day like that. He followed all arrangements well & kept us apprised. We certainly hope to hire him again!”
About: Hello there! I'm Jenn, and I've been caring for dogs since about 2012. Many of my early experiences came from families my mom worked for while nannying and managing their households. While she kept everything running smoothly inside the home, I naturally gravitated toward spending time with the dogs. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of caring for many wonderful pups: • Koni (German Shepherd) – A loyal and gentle boy I cared for from adulthood through his senior years. Caring for him taught me patience and attentiveness when supporting older dogs. • Romeo (Golden Retriever) & Henry (Shih Tzu) – Two sweet pups from the same household who I helped care for from puppyhood. Looking after them taught me how to balance the needs of dogs with very different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. • Lacie (Medium-sized mixed breed) – A young adult dog who was the best of both worlds: very active and playful outside, but also a needy lap dog at home. She taught me how to balance exercise with affection and downtime. • Three German Shepherd–Black Lab mix puppies (3 weeks old) – Tiny foster puppies that required the same level of attention as a human baby. Caring for them gave me hands-on experience with very young dogs and early development. • Casper (English Golden Retriever) – The gentlest and sweetest boy, and definitely one of my favorites. He’s very affectionate and loves companionship, which reinforced how important routine, attention, and emotional comfort are for dogs. I’m experienced and happy to care for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I look forward to getting to know your furry friend and becoming their next buddy! I work in Bethesda, MD Monday through Friday, but I can take my break during the day to visit, feed, and walk your dog :) Depending on their temperament, there’s also the possibility of bringing your dog to my office! • Cozy office space: Bed, food, water, treats, and toys available • Safe travel: Fully equipped to transport dogs safely in my car • Nearby park: Perfect for extra walks and playtime during the day I’ll care for your dog through the evening, giving attention, cuddles, and play sessions after work :) On weekends, I dedicate my time to longer walks, games, and extra TLC. Even during the workweek, though, I take frequent breaks to give pets love, attention, and companionship so they feel happy, safe, and cared for. Your dog’s safety and well-being — both physical and mental — are my top priorities. Before I begin care, I like to meet you and your dog in person and do a walkthrough. Depending on the type of care, this may include: • Their temperament and typical routine • A walkthrough of your home • Food and medication schedules • Locations of necessary supplies • Your veterinarian’s contact information • Any other details specific to your dog’s needs I’ll also ask about your dog’s favorite ways to stay active, play, and feel comfortable. Every dog is unique, and understanding these details helps me provide care that keeps them happy, healthy, and mentally stimulated.
“Ana is always super prompt and professional. She’s kind and thorough in her communication, both of which seem to spill over into how she cares for pets. Always love booking with her :)”
About: I grew up with Rottweilers and started helping my dad care for our family dog from a young age, including as he got older. I also have a two-year-old dog of my own, so dogs have always been a big part of my life. Altogether, I have around six years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, and I’m comfortable with different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I recently moved from Sweden to Bethesda and currently have a very flexible schedule. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends, which gives me plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and giving your dog the attention they need. I’m happy to adapt to your dog’s normal routine, whether that means long walks and lots of exercise, shorter walks, playing with their favorite toys, or just keeping them company and giving them plenty of cuddles. I’ll always follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, routines, and house rules so your dog can feel as comfortable as possible. Most importantly, I genuinely love being around dogs. My wife always jokes that dogs seem to come say hello to me before they greet her. If there’s a dog at a party, that’s usually where you’ll find me! I recently moved to Bethesda from Sweden and have a very flexible schedule as I’m settling into my new life here. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends and can easily accommodate walks, drop-ins, and different routines throughout the day. I live in an apartment in Bethesda and have plenty of great areas nearby for both long and short walks. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always come first. I’m happy to follow your usual routine, feeding instructions, walking preferences, and any house rules you have. I’ll also make sure you receive regular updates so you know your dog is happy and well cared for.

“Anthony was a phenomenal dog sitter. We needed a reservation with little notice because another sitter backed out on us, and he made sure to make it work, and even came to meet the dogs prior to the first pop in visit. He took care of our dogs' needs in every way we could expect. He kept us informed with any questions or needs. Honestly, he is the best sitter that we have ever had on Rover, and we truly hope that we can book him again in the future! 6/5 stars hands down!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals in my home my whole life, from large dogs to guinea pigs! I have experience taking care of animals with various medical issues, anxious dogs, senior animals, and i’ve volunteered at local animal shelters. No animal too big or small! I’m currently working full time, but I am able to stay overnight and check in on your pet anytime after 3pm. I am available at any time during weekends as well. I take the safety of your animal very seriously. I ask you to please let me know if your animal has any special needs, issues with other animals, anxiety, etc. so that I can provide them with the best and most informed care possible.
“Landy has been walking our dogs every day for the last weeks and we are so happy. One dog recently had ACL surgery and requires some support on her walk and Landy does a great job managing that situation and providing them with daily love. She sends pictures and is really easy to work with. Best of all, the pups clearly love her.”
“Jocabet is the best! We had her check in on our pup while I was out of town for a work trip. She was prompt in responding to messages, accommodating of our schedule, sent great photos, and gave us peace of mind that our puppy was well cared for during the long work days. We'll absolutely book her again.”

I cannot recommend Jennifer highly enough! Leaving Liam is always stressful, but Jennifer gave us total peace of mind from day one. She strictly followed his feeding routine and litter schedule, and sent us updates regularly. Professional, punctual, and a genuine cat person. We will definitely be booking them again!
Kayla took fabulous care of Laguna when I had to leave town unexpectedly. Laguna had never had anyone come to the apartment before and Kayla was not only willing but it's clear she took good care of my girl in the drop-ins because when I got home she was happy and looking behind me like she was looking for Kayla.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Martins Additions is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $28 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.

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.
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 Martins Additions. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 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.
