Dog Sitting Potomac

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for pets has been a part of my life for years. I have experience caring for dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family members while you’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and responsible, and I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I also have a puppy of my own, so I understand the importance of daily routines, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing outside, or simply relaxing and getting attention, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of care and companionship! I have a flexible schedule and can make time to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. I enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means going for walks, playing, feeding them, or just keeping them company. I’m happy to communicate with pet parents about their pets’ routines and work together to find a schedule that works for everyone. I want your pets to feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and happiness are my priorities. I understand that leaving your furry family member with someone new requires trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, respect your pet’s routine, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision. I’m happy to provide updates and pictures so you can feel reassured while you’re away. Every pet has different needs, and I’ll do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: Hi there, and welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. Caring for dogs is truly a joy for me, and when your fur baby stays with us, they become part of the family for a little while: loved, spoiled, and well looked after. I work from home, so your pup will have company all day long. My teen and preteen are big dog lovers too, so there’s always someone around for play, belly rubs, and cuddles. Your dog will feel right at home. I love giving each dog my full attention, so I usually host just one at a time. Every now and then I may have 2–3 furry guests, and I’ll always let you know ahead of time. While you’re away, I’ll keep you in the loop with updates throughout the day and lots of photos and videos. You’ll never have to wonder how your baby is doing! A Few Friendly House Rules Our home is a cozy, clean space for my family and every dog who visits. To keep it that way, I kindly ask that your pup arrives: Clean and flea-free With nails trimmed, to keep our wood floors happy Tell Me All About Your Pup! Every dog is unique, and the more I know, the better I can care for yours. Please let me know if your dog: is reactive or aggressive toward other dogs loves (or doesn’t love) dog parks pulls on the leash feels anxious when left alone has any food allergies Thank you so much for understanding. These little rules help every dog have a safe, happy, and fun stay. Let’s Stay Connected Please download the Rover app before your booking. It’s the easiest way for us to chat in real time, and you can call me through the app anytime, whether you’re just down the street or on the other side of the world. I can’t wait to meet you and your sweet pup! 🐾 I work from home, so your pup has company all day long! My schedule is flexible, so I can take them out whenever they need a potty break or a walk. I also send updates several times a day, with lots of photos and videos, so you’ll always know how your fur baby is doing. 🤗 Your dog’s safety always comes first. Potty breaks and walks are always supervised and on leash. When there’s more than one dog, I introduce them slowly, watch how they get along, and give everyone space to settle in and get to know us. I usually host one dog at a time, and if I ever have 2–3, I’ll let every owner know ahead of time. Our home is clean and cozy, with wood floors, and my teen and preteen love dogs too. To keep it that way, I kindly ask that every guest arrives clean, flea-free, and with nails trimmed.

About: Hello my name is Brooke and I recently graduated at Towson University! My hobbies include art, crafting, dancing, and going to the gym. I bring both experience and heart to pet care. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages from small puppies who need extra training and structure to senior pets who need patience, gentle care, and medication support. I am reliable, caring, responsible and intend to treat every pet I work with as if they were my own. Beyond walks and feedings, I focus on creating comfort, fun, and safety so your furry friend feels loved while you’re away. As a part-time student finishing my last semester in the Early Childhood Learning program at my university, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for your furry friends. My own pup is already part of my daily routine, so adding walks, playtime, and snuggles with other pets fits in naturally. Whether it’s mornings, afternoons, or evenings, I make sure pets get the love, exercise, and attention they need. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my home, pets will be treated like family and will have a clean, cozy space, plenty of fresh water, and supervised playtime. In a client’s home, I follow your pet’s routine closely and keep things consistent so they feel secure. I’m attentive to details, from double-checking leashes and gates to monitoring food, exercise, and medications as needed. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment where every pet feels cared for and stress-free.

About: Although I have not had a pet sitting job before, my family has owned dogs my whole life and I have always helped take care of the dogs in any way I can. I am going to be working with rover full time, so I can give your dogs my full attention. I love animals and will promise to treat them with love and care. I will care for your dog with every bit of my heart, I will make sure they are safe and loved and protected when I am with them.

About: I am happy to help out with all pets! I have grown up with a range of animals(dogs, cats, turtles, birds, fish) and currently own two cats. I am a teacher, so I am looking to help out in the afternoon or in the evenings. Outside of that, I am pretty flexible. I am calm and adaptable, and willing to let your animal take the lead. I am happy to help out with whatever they need, and prioritize animal comfort and safety!

“Katie was great and was able to come last minute to watch my cat. Would recommend!”

About: Active lifestyle especially suited for high energy dogs. Dependable and trustworthy caretaker. Will provide active fun walks as needed. Will take care of your dog as of my own. Have a daytime job and will be available to house sit your dog at your home if necessary. Weekends are generally available for visiting and walks. Will provide house-sitting service for your pet at your home or make visits for caretaking and walks outside regular daytime work hours. Dependable and committed caretaker.

About: I have had many different dogs over the years and cared for more than one dog at a time, which makes me very comfortable in caring for your fur babies and understanding their many personalities. Also, I believe socialization is very important for all dogs so if you are comfortable, I am able to take them to a dog park (I have one near my home). This will allow them to create new friends and make their experience more enjoyable. Overall, I am trying to avoid getting another pet, so if you let me care for your fur baby I would heavily appreciate it :D As you can tell from my photos I treat all pets like they are a part of my family. Rest assured your baby and I will become best friends. I am a remote worker which allows me more time to care for your babies and a lot of flexibility. I believe this would be a mutually beneficial relationship as I'd be able to enjoy my day playing with dogs, while you won't be worried about taking your dog out. If you ever need to board your dog I am available on the weekends and if you need a house sitter because it would make your fur baby more comfortable I am flexible on those dates as well. I have a multitude of toys, treats, and puzzles to keep them engaged and happy. I also have a dog park which tends to not be busy which allows for running and fetch time in a safe environment.

“Trishell did a great job with my fur babies while I was away! She sent plenty of pictures and updates, was on time and very friendly! I would definitely recommend using Trishell for your pet care needs!”

About: I have a wonderful dog, named Shasta. I taught her to respond to verbal visual command: up, in, turn around, down, stay and roll over. We both enjoyed walks and playing fetch. She went to college with my younger son who also loves Shasta. I love dogs and cats. I think they are wonderful. I know how to set boundaries and enjoy interacting with all animals. I look forward to meeting you and your pet. My schedule is very flexible. I’m open all day and night for your pet sitting needs. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! My dog is at college with my son. I have a fenced in backyard to make ball play easy. I enjoy dog walks. I enjoy teaching dogs new tricks. Cats are great also.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! Growing up with dogs has given me a lifelong love for animals and an understanding of how important it is to provide them with love, patience, and proper care. I’m currently the proud owner of a 1-year-old French Bulldog, so I have hands-on experience with the daily responsibilities of being a dog owner, including feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and making sure my pup feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every dog has their own unique personality, needs, and routine. Whether your pup is playful and energetic or prefers cuddles and relaxing, I’ll do my best to make them feel right at home. I’ll treat your furry family member with the same love and attention I give my own dog! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I want every owner to feel confident that their dog is in caring, responsible hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged best friend! 🐾 I work only 3 days a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility to dedicate time to pet care throughout the week. On my days off, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship. As a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of keeping a consistent routine and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual needs and schedule to make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve! 🐾 I care for every pet as if they were my own! As someone who has grown up with dogs and currently has a 1-year-old French Bulldog, I understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment.

In a client's home, I would follow their pet's normal routine and any specific instructions to help them feel comfortable while their owner is away.

About: For as long as I can remember, my family has had pets. I've had the opportunity to love and care for many wonderful animals over the years including geckoes, cats, and dogs, including my current darling cat Artemis. I live in downtown Silver Spring, MD, right by the metro station, so I can get around very easily. I'm used to caring for animals both big dogs and those who require a gentle touch, and I make sure to look after their safety and happiness. I also have experience caring for older dogs, and I am happy to tailor my care to their needs. When caring for others' pets, I make sure to provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins. My goal as a sitter is simple: to give you peace of mind and to provide your pet with safety, care, and love while they wait to see their favorite people in the world once again. I am currently in-between positions, and so have a large degree of availability for taking care of your pets. I have availability any day of the week at this time. My home is a small, 1 bedroom apartment, but the building borders a small park area which itself contains a dog park for walking needs.

“Theresa was wonderful! She took great care of our kitties when we were away. Kept us updated with photos and descriptions of her visits. Very responsive via text/email. Will happily book again!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 15, giving me 21 years of hands-on experience with dogs, cats, and small animals, including rodents. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, comfort level, and boundaries. What sets me apart is how mindful I am of an animal’s energy and body language. I don’t force interaction or expect every pet to warm up immediately. I’m patient, loving, attentive, and happy to let your pet set the pace while I earn their trust. Whether your pet is outgoing and affectionate, independent, shy, or just particular about how they like things done, I’ll care for them with the same patience, respect, and attention I would want for my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already structure my days around caring for my own dog. I’m used to daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and making sure pets get the attention and consistency they need. I’m available for walks and drop-ins outside of my weekday work hours, as well as evenings, weekends, and overnight house sitting. I’m reliable about routines and happy to follow your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible. I care for each pet based on their individual routine, personality, and comfort level. In a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow their normal feeding, walking, play, medication, and bedtime routines as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable while their owner is away. I’m very attentive to body language and energy, so I never force interaction. Whether a pet wants lots of affection and playtime or prefers a little more space, I let them set the pace. During walks and drop-ins, I focus on safety, exercise, fresh water, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention. I also understand that caring for someone’s pet means respecting their home. I’m clean, responsible, communicative, and happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for.
