“Julianna was great with Amber and very communicative! She updated me daily and made sure to give her lots of treats and playtime. This was my first time using Rover, and I'm so glad we worked with her!”
“Lingshan was a great sitter for our kitten! She was very reliable, caring, and friendly. She took very good care of our cat. We would definitely use her services again.”
“Jason was awesome again! Even though I forgot to leave my key for him, he contacted me immediately and even offered to come back at a later time if I had another way for him to get in. Thank you for your kindness and I hope you can drop in again for Petunia soon.”
“Ambar was wonderful with our dog. She truly cares for the animal and he loved her back so quickly! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, loving and attentive dog walker or sitter.”
“Christopher was great! He was so easy to work with and our dogs really loved being with him. We have three dogs and he didn’t bat an eye. He was never late and always sent video or pictures of them playing. We hired him for two weeks straight and he was very consistent. Super happy to have him for our dog care.”
“Melissa was wonderful! We had great communication from her during our entire trip, lots of photos, and detailed drop-in notes. We especially appreciated how she took her time with letting our very shy older cat get used to her being around. We definitely hope to have Melissa drop in again in the future!”
“Rachel has been helping us take care of our two sweet, energetic doggos! They have big personalities and she has been excellent adapting to their needs and routines. She always sends pictures and videos of them playing and by the end of her visits they are all tuckered out from the fun. She’s also enthusiastic and easy to communicate with, which has made this a great experience for us humans. Definitely recommend her services!”
“Xena is wonderful! She is communicative, punctual, and reliable. She took great care of our German Shepherd and sent frequent updates and pictures. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had animals since I was a kid, so being around pets has always been a part of my life. I genuinely enjoy caring for them and getting to know their different personalities. Whether it’s going on walks, feeding them, playing with them, or just keeping them company, I want every pet to feel comfortable and cared for. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I’ll treat yours with the same love and attention I would give my own. I have a flexible schedule and can work with you to find times that fit your pet’s routine. I’m happy to help with walks, drop-in visits, and keeping your pets company while you’re away. I understand how important consistency is for animals, so I’ll do my best to make sure they stay comfortable with their usual routine. I know it can be hard leaving your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel comfortable knowing they’re being cared for. I’ll follow your instructions, make sure they have everything they need, and give them plenty of attention. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates while you’re away so you can see how they’re doing!
“Yuki provided the highest quality of care to our lovely puppy. Although she can still be a stubborn puppy at times, Yuki was patient with her and gave our pup the best time ever! Yuki also went out of her way to provide extra treats and gifts for Luna knowing that it would help Luna in the long run. 100% found my go to dog sitter for the coming future.”
“Kyrstin was wonderful taking care of our two cats while we were gone for a week! She kept us very updated and shared a lot of photos. She managed medication administration for one of our cats as well. We would trust her over and over again to take care of our boys 💙🐾”
“We had a great experience with Nezuko’s sitter and highly recommend them! They were reliable, attentive, and very caring throughout the visit. Nezuko was well taken care of, happy, and comfortable, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. Communication was excellent, and the updates and photos were really appreciated. It’s clear they genuinely care about the pets they look after.”
About: As I have evolved, I've found connecting and caring for fur babies brings pure joy. I am here to support your journey with your loved pets. I'm a yoga instructor and teach only on Wednesdays. Im available other weekdays and weekends, anytime after 11am usually. Im able to adjust per requests. I would prefer to care for pets in client's home, where they can be most comfortable with all resources readily available. I'm available to take dogs for walks/day sit.
“Marion is absolutely wonderful. She is always quick to respond, takes amazing care of my Luna Tuna, and clearly has a genuine love for what she does. As a bonus, she even loves plants. I could not recommend her more.”
“Krystian is a really great sitter. Very responsive throughout his care of my pets and sent pictures during his check in’s. My dog and cat were very happy with the attention they received while my boyfriend and I were on vacation. Krystian also made sure to spend time petting and playing with them in addition to walks and feeding time. I would recommend Krystian to anyone, he is a really nice and trust-worthy person.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - North Bethesda
Barbara took such good care of my cats while I was away that I needed to switch up my own routines! I was updated every visit with how everyone was doing, and each of my 3 cats got such focused attention on every visit that their personalities (and bellies!) were on full display. I trust Barbara with my cats, and I can't possibly recommend her high enough for how well she worked with them.
Yuxi is the most wonderful pet sitter. She took such good care of my cat while I was gone, sending frequent updates with photos and videos. It is obvious she loves animals and they love her back. I was able to thoroughly enjoy my trip and relax knowing that my cat was in such good hands. Thank you again Yuxi!
Sharon is absolutely wonderful and my cats love her. She is very attentive to their needs and makes sure they have plenty of food and water and takes care of their litter boxes. She is also an excellent communicator and takes super cute pictures. I highly recommend Sharon.
Yuandi did a great job taking care of my cat. My cat had to go on medication at the last minute, while I was away. Yuandi was very responsive to my new instructions and was able to give the medication without issue, which relieved a lot of stress for me. She sent lots of updates too, which I really appreciated.
Nuha made my trip so much more enjoyable by providing really great details about what she and my cat got up to. I also loved how many photos she sent. My friends who have checked in on my cat previously sometimes didn't send a single photo the whole time I was away! Using Rover and Nuha specifically was so worth it. Nuha also was very patient with me when my apartment complex door/security system had glitches. I'd 100% recommend her and hope to book with her again in the future!
Rae is truly amazing! I always struggle to leave my babies with someone whom I don’t know but Rae made that so easy. She was so patient with our cats, not only gave them food but also played and spend additional time with the cats. That really demonstrates that Rae adores pets. She is extremely easy to work with and very flexible. When we came back everything was so clean! Huge thanks!!
Absolutely wonderful dog walker! They are reliable, caring, and clearly have a genuine love for dogs. What really stands out is their thoughtful communication—they always keep me updated, share helpful details about each walk, and make sure I know how my pup is doing. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing my dog is in such attentive and trustworthy hands. I couldn’t recommend them more highly!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in North Bethesda is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $39 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 October 2026, there are 17,169 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across North Bethesda. 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.
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 .
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 , 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 North Bethesda. 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
