Rasha took great care of our pets as usual. She’s so responsive and always lets us know how our pets are doing while we’re away. Our dog gets so excited when she sees Rasha, so I know that she gives extra care and attention.

Chelsea took care of my two kitties for five days over Christmas. She was very responsive to my requests for the timing of her visits. I really appreciated her daily updates and photos so I could see that my kitties were fine. I would absolutely ask Chelsea to take care of my kitties again in the future. It’s obvious she really loves animals and she was kind and loving to my two babies. Thanks to Chelsea I was able to enjoy Christmas with the peace of mind that my cats were happy and safe.

About: I've had a cat in my life since I was a baby, so I'm genuinely fluent in cat behaviour and needs. I've raised kittens, cared for senior cats and cats with chronic conditions, and I'm experienced with giving regular medication. I offer boarding at my own home, where your cat will get full attention and stick to their normal routine, feeding, and habits. I'm available full-time, weekdays and weekends, so you can book me even for last-minute plans. Pet care is a genuine part of my daily routine, not an afterthought. I check in regularly throughout the day for feeding, playtime, and litter box maintenance, and I make time for cuddles and enrichment activities. Since I'm available full-time on weekdays and weekends, I can easily adapt my schedule around your cat's usual feeding times and habits, so there's minimal disruption to their routine while you're away. Your cat's safety and comfort come first. My home is a calm, secure environment with no toxic plants, hidden hazards, or unsecured windows, and I keep a close eye on cats at all times, especially during the settling-in period. I follow feeding schedules exactly as instructed, administer medication carefully when needed, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your cat is happy and well cared for.

First time using Rover, and Olga was amazing! Frequently kept me updated on Coopers status, including plenty of pics. Had the schedule this last minute and on Thanksgiving Day, and Olga was more than happy to help. Will definitely use her again in the future, and highly recommend.

Lindsey did a great job, taking care of our dog and cats! We contacted her on short notice and she came and did a meet and greet and understood what we needed done. When we arrived home we had a happy pup, who had received his meditations, and cats who didn’t care that we left or came home.😂

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my calm, patient, and gentle approach to each dog. I pay close attention to their body language, needs, and comfort. I'm especially good with puppies who need gentle guidance and basic training, as well as with older dogs who require more leisurely walks, extra care, and a loving, comforting presence. I treat every pet as if it were my own, with the same kindness, respect, and affection I would want for my own. I recently moved and have free time since I have online classes during the week on alternate schedules, so I have time to play with your little ones and shower them with warmth and attention. Within my family, three of them are a furry friend named Balu who is 7 years old, a cat named Copito who is 6 years old, and a kitten named Lucas who is 5 years old. I am used to taking care of them and keeping them under constant supervision, not only in their diet but also in their physical and emotional well-being.

Hilary did an awesome job with our 2 cats! She was on time, fed and medicated them, hung out with them and sent pix! She is by far the best person we've ever had watch our cats. Hilary took care of cleaning the litter and bringing in the mail every day, too. We highly recommend her - she clearly enjoys what she does, and we are super grateful!

About: Since I was little I always have had a love for dogs. I used to walk to my neighbors house and ask to walk their dog, because I of how bad I wanted one. Once I got my dog, I feel in love right way. I love and know how to care for dogs of all sizes, and needs! I'm free all days of the week! Right now I am taking a NOVA summer class to get ahead, so I will need to allocate some time to that. But my class will end after the first week of July. I have a fenced backyard, so I let my dog go out when he wants while also watching him. Also my dog is very calm, and doesn't run off. So When he wants to sit in the front yard, I let him off the leash but I stay outside to make sure nothing happens.

Anum quickly became loved by our 4 dogs and 2 cats. She easily remembered all the details of their feeding and schedule. She fed the entire crew and kept them all happy during a long Easter Weekend. Our emotionally needy GSP and barky Aussie became good friends with Anum. Even our very shy dog came out of her shell !

About: I have been a dog and cat sitting going on 5 years now. With 5 consistent families I catsit and dogsit for I make it my mission to make the babies and their parents feel safe, comfortable, and confident having me care for their loved one and in their home. I have my own kitty at home and have history with caring for both cats and dogs. I provide services walking and pet sitting. I am currently self employed so my days are very flexible. When I am working it is either at my store from 8-3 or at home. When pet sitting I adjust my schedule to your pet’s eating and bathroom schedule to assure that when they are with me that they are top priority. When I am pet sitting in a client’s home, I want their fur baby to feel familiar, comfortable, and safe in their own home. I always like to know their favorite hiding spots, favorite toys, and personality characteristics to assure I can make them feel safe and sound while their owner is away. Once my stay is over I always assure to leave everything better than I found it - taking out the trash, washing dishes, washing towels, sweeping, etc. to assure the owner comes home to a clean and tidy space so they can focus on relaxing with their pet when they come home :)!

We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Cassidy! We have three cats, including one with diabetes, and Cassidy went above and beyond to make sure they were safe, comfortable, and happy while we were away. She downloaded the Libre app to monitor our diabetic cat’s glucose, gave him his insulin without issue, and kept in constant contact with us throughout the week with updates and the sweetest pictures. Even our shyest cat, who normally hides from strangers, came out to say hello by the end of the visit which is something that never happens! It was such a comfort knowing our fur babies were in such capable and caring hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Cassidy again!

About: I grew up on a farm, so I have been around dogs and cats my whole life. They are my favorite animals! Each one is unique, and I’ve had great opportunities to showcase my abilities and patience by taking care of my friends' and family members' pets. I have enjoyed learning about their habits, schedules, and specific diets, which helps them feel less stressed. I always prioritize clear communication with the owners. My number one goal is to keep each pet happy and active while maintaining a suitable environment for them. I’m currently available - Monday through Sunday for walks or house sitting. Feel free to send a message requesting dates and times that way we can correlate dates and set a meet up! I live in a condo, so far I’ve had small to medium dogs over it’s a good space for them to roam around. I have a balcony so with the owner’s permission I let them hang there always with my supervision. I do live near a open field area that I take the pets to walk, run, and potty!! Pretty good area for them to relax and let the zoomies out!!

Marti was truly outstanding with our pup! From the very first visit, she was thoughtful, attentive, and incredibly communicative. She made sure he was well cared for through multiple walks each day—even working around storms and hot weather to make sure he was comfortable and safe. She gave us regular, detailed updates, complete with sweet observations about his mood, habits, and how he was doing while we were away. Our dog can be a bit particular, but Marti clearly understood him and made sure he got just the right balance of activity, affection, and quiet time. She even noticed when he was a little more anxious and made sure to help him walk it off and settle with his favorite kong. We came home to a happy pup, and we felt at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We'd absolutely recommend Marti to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and communicative caregiver. She's the best!

Yekaterina is awesome! Friendly, responsive, communicative and especially kind and caring to our elderly girl, Mamie. We really appreciate Kat and hope we can work with her regularly. The next time we might decide to a weekend trip instead of only a day away and we can rest assured that our girl will be well cared for! Kat is A+!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Potomac Falls

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Potomac Falls on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 15,573 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Potomac Falls. 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 Potomac Falls 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.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Potomac Falls choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Potomac Falls with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Potomac Falls. On Rover:

  • 89% 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.

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.
