Top rated Potomac house sitters
“Omar and Claudia were fantastic! Gizmo is easy going but Pepe is super hard to please, and they managed to gain his trust in no time. Omar and Claudia were punctual, professional, reliable and kind. They kept communicating with us throughout the sitting period and share photos and videos of our two boys. Their dedication to our dogs is greatly appreciated and we’ll definitely book them again soon. We really appreciate their dedication to make sure everything was perfect.”

“We couldn’t be happier with the care Jenny provided! She was responsible, attentive, and truly empathetic with our two dogs, making them feel safe and loved while we were away. She also took excellent care of our home and was incredibly respectful of our space. We especially appreciated the thoughtful daily updates and how responsive she was throughout the stay. She even went out of her way to ship something we had forgotten at home—above and beyond in every way. Highly recommend!”

Hope to work with him again in the future!”

“Sarah was great! So easy to work with to schedule a meet and greet, and sent lots of updates while we were away. She also was extremely flexible and stayed later than anticipated (even offered an extra night) as our flight was delayed coming home. I’m often worried about leaving our Olive, but I know she was in great hands with Sarah. We’ll definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Ana is a very caring and conscientious cat sitter. We feel very lucky to have found Ana to care for our fur babies when we go out of town. When we return our cats are at ease with no signs of distress or anxiety. Ana leaves our home in great condition and we cannot even tell she was staying in our home. We plan on using Ana again.”

Over 225 pet parents in Potomac have booked house sitting
Potomac pet parents share their Rover experiences
I recently moved to the area and had to quickly find someone to dog sit. Leslie was responsive and available and I am so lucky I was able to find her. She was amazing and exceeded my expectations! I have two dogs, one senior pup and one chocolate lab with some unique behaviors that aren’t for everyone. She was adaptable, learned about my dogs, and ensured they were well cared for. She sent updates and amazing pictures of them that will probably be on the back of my Christmas card. She also supported some asks that my landlord sent me which definitely didn’t fall within her scope of responsibility and helped me. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter that will go above your expectations!
Sofia was wonderful! She was fully engaged with our 2 pups and very adaptable to one of their eccentric ways. She very responsive and sent photos every day. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing our pups were in great hands. I would wholeheartedly recommend.
