“Nicole has been amazing with our Nyla. We had to make a quick transition when our previous sitter needed to step away. She has come in and made fast friends with this lovable Presa pup! We look forward to seeing how this blossoms. Choose Nicole and your fur baby will be in great care.”
“Amy did a wonderful job! She was so prepared and attentive, and patient with one of our cats who was nervous to meet a new sitter. We would love to work with her again and highly recommend to others!”
About: My schedule can be sort of flexible. I specialize in cats and frequently look after pets on military bases or in Active Duty families! Dog walks and house sitting is A-okay for me! If pet is located on Joint Base Andrew's, frequent walks and checkups are possible. Otherwise low maintenance animals are preferred as I'd only be able to check up in the afternoon/evening. I have a cat that I play with often. I cut his nails and bathe him weekly. Im aware that every animal is different so I'm flexible to different personalities and needs.
“As alway, Jessica is a fantastic cat sitter, I highly recommend her!! She is very adaptable, for example my cat’s medication process has changed a few times and she’s always completely ok with it and administers it as directed by the vet. It’s also always clear that she cares about Kona, ensuring he gets his supervised outside time (weather permitting).”
“Valerie did a great job with my kitties. She kept me informed about what they were doing while I was away and sent tons of pictures. I miss my cats when I’m traveling but I know they were in good hands with Valarie and I loved getting pictures and videos everyday.”
“Ziasia was a great dog sitter for my sweet Jaeda. Jaeda was walked and feed, brief updates were given with a photo. I was able to communicate with Ziasia as needed during my time away which was very comforting to me.”
“Ian was extremely quick to respond, thorough with all the details, very affordable and exceptionally flexible with our needs. Will absolutely use Ian again and highly recommend to anyone! ?????????”
“Jessica was really great with our shy, older cat! He is very low maintenance but she still spent lots of time giving him love and attention. I’m so happy we found Jessica and we plan to use her for our next trip!!”
About: I am a retired law enforcement professional and former mental health counselor. I have had dogs all my life, and they are truly a part of me and my family's life. I previously worked part-time as a dog trainer at a large chain pet store and learned so much about dogs and how to interact with them. I will care for your pet like I care for my own and give them lots of love and attention. I can also bring in your mail and care for your plants ( I also have a green thumb). If you are interested in my services, send me a request and we can discuss your needs and how I can accommodate you. I look forward to hearing from you! I am fully retired which means unlimited flexibility. I have a large fenced in yard and beautiful side walked neighborhood ensuring your pup gets the exercise they need. I have a two dog friendly pups who would love to play with yours. I have a fully fenced yard and a walkable neighborhood. Because my MIL lives with us, the pups have continuous care and are not left unattended.
“Amber was so sweet and loving with our kitties who are sometimes shy. I loved getting the pictures and recaps of the visits. Would definitely book with Amber again!”
About: Having taken care of a precious Springer Spaniel for 14 years (Cocoa), I'll do my best to take care of your dog as if he or she were my own. I'm usually quite responsive when it comes to bookings and arrangements, responding within 15-20 minutes. I'll take them out to play and walk and feed them at least three times a day. I'll also bathe them, if need be. Most importantly, I will be as flexible and accommodating as possible to ensure that your dog will have fun while with me. I currently have open availability in my schedule, so I could most definitely sit your dog full-time if necessary. Above all else, I just love working with dogs as they are my favorite animal.
“Darius was absolutely wonderful with my cat. She is normally slow to warm up to people but she came right over to him and was happy to play with him. She was very well cared for while I was away. I would use Darius again.”
“A true star! Taryn was able to come and look after my 4 large breed dogs on last minute notice. She followed all my instructions perfectly and from the pictures you can really see how much my dogs loved her and happy they were. I will definitely be using her again!”
About: Since my teenage years, I have taken care of various pets, cats, dogs, fish, turtles, frogs, birds, rabbits, and hamsters. In Denver, Colorado, I was assistant manager for a pet shop. We not only provided retail, but we provided play space washing, and grooming. I am looking forward to working with friendly only pets. I currently work my digital editing business part-time so I have ample time to add a pet in my daily routine. I am available daily from 4:30 AM until 10 PM. My preference would be to pet sit where they reside, but if a pet does need to stay with me overnight, they can expect a friendly, quiet, playful, safe place with three levels. There's also a dog park walking distance.

“Alison was fantastic with our dog, Rosy! She was so kind from the moment we met for the meet and greet! Alison has a great communication style that allowed us all to make sure we were on the same page with regard to Rosy. Throughout the booking, I know Rosy was well cared for, walked, and loved on while I was gone. I received lots of picture update photos, which I always enjoyed! I really appreciate Alison for being such a wonderful and reliable Rover sitter. We will absolutely book again with her in the future!!”
“Heather was great! I booked Heather for 3 drop in visits for my cat and I was pretty last minute, giving Heather less than a weeks notice. Heather was very quick to respond and came over and met Heidi prior to the drop ins. She was so easy to work with and did a great job with her. It made me feel good that someone so responsible was taking care of my cat. I would highly recommend Heather and will definitely use her again!”

Haley was an amazing pet sitter! She took great care of my cat, Nami, while I was away and gave me so much peace of mind. She was reliable, attentive, and made sure Nami was well taken care of. I really appreciated the updates and knowing my kitty was in good hands. I would absolutely trust Haley to watch Nami again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!
Jacki was a great joy to our two cats! We really appreciated her taking the time to get to know them and giving them space when they needed it. She is extremely knowledgeable and she was able to get the both of them to warm up to her quickly! Would recommend!
Valerie did a great job with my kitties. She kept me informed about what they were doing while I was away and sent tons of pictures. I miss my cats when I’m traveling but I know they were in good hands with Valarie and I loved getting pictures and videos everyday.
Goldie Loves Milanni! Milanni is someone I can count on for drop-ins or boarding when I’m traveling around the world. I appreciate how easy it is to communicate with her and she confidently takes care of business without any worry. Goldie appreciates Milanni being part of her caregiving community when I am away. I recommend Milanni for your pet and caregiving needs.
We are so appreciative of Chris being avail to pop in on our Lil big guy during the holiday. He was great from the communication, the photos he sent and giving big baby some tlc which I'm sure he enjoyed. We'd definitely recommend Chris and look forward to reaching out to him again.- Thanks Chris!!
I cannot recommend Sarah B.enough. From the very first message, their communication was clear, professional, and incredibly thoughtful. They treated my pet like family, patient, attentive, and genuinely caring the entire time. I received regular updates, photos, and check-ins that gave me total peace of mind.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Mitchellville on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 16,808 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Mitchellville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Mitchellville 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.
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 Mitchellville. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
