John is excellent with our Cody. He was scared at first and growled at him but John was kind and patient with him. He asked about all of his triggers and how to handle certain situations to make it as stress-free as possible for our boy. ❤️

Dayana walked Cooper today for the first time and we were very happy! Cooper met her in advance and warmed to her instantly. She came on time to get him and gave him a nice long walk, he got a much better walk than he would have gotten had I been home so he was very happy 😃 We will absolutely be using her the next time we need a walk!

Skyler is a great dog caretaker! She brings great energy to her job and the dogs love her positive nature. I have 2 dogs and Skyler is able to walk them both and understands their needs. She pays attention to the care instructions to make sure she is providing the optimal experience. She is a strong communicator being both responsive to requests and proactively sharing pictures and status along the way.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have taken care of my friends and neighbors dogs whenever they need a dog sitter. I also worked at Olde Towne Pet Resort for two years working with both dogs and cats. I also worked at Pender Veterinary Centre for two years, where I administer treatment and care of dogs, cats, and even exotic animals! I just graduated college and haven’t found a full time job yet so I will be able to have my full attention for your pet! :) I love taking the dogs on long walks and know of great trails nearby my house and I also understand that some dogs need time to warm up to new people, so I always make sure to approach them calmly, be patient and help them feel comfortable and safe.

About: I’m a teacher who is looking forward to working with pets! I have had my own dog for 10+ years and have taken care of other dogs as well! Neighbors, friends and families have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets! I am also an active dog sitter who lives near Algonkian Park! During the academic school year my availability is a little different, but my summer schedule is very flexible. I love spending time with my own dog and will take her out during various parts of the day if the weather allows. I firmly believe that pets are such important members of the family and giving them all the care and love is priority! When I care for pets, I make sure they are fed, taken outside on their daily walks and have some fun! When going on a walk, I make sure to carry a water, portable water bowl, bags and treats. I also check the temperature and make sure the heat index has not surpassed the recommended temperature for walking dogs. When feeding pets, I make sure to follow their feeding schedule and the amount recommended by their owner. I also check with the dog owner, if the pets have any allergies, medication or other health concerns. I ensure a safe, loving and welcoming space for each pet. My summer days are super flexible. I am also open to do super early walks, or late check-ins for dogs. My schedule during the day is open. I’m also available to housesit during the weekends. I try to update my calendar every two weeks. I treat any pet as my own pet. I ensure that they are comfortable, that they are fed, that they are also having fun and they feel safe. I know changes can sometimes cause pets to become anxious, and I want to ensure that while their human goes on trips, or is away, they are feeling like they are taken care of and feel safe!

About: I have experience raising and training multiple dogs of my own and am comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. As a reliable and punctual caregiver, I strive to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m currently a college student home for the summer so I have full availability during weekends and weekdays and I can accommodate various scheduling needs! When caring for your dog in your home, I follow their normal routine to help them feel as comfortable and secure with someone new. I can provide walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention while ensuring your pet stays safe and well cared for.

About: I enjoy spending time with dogs and cats because they truly bring joy to each day. I’m flexible, communicative, patient and caring, and I’ll always make sure your pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ve spent several years caring for my family’s dogs and cats, as well as pets of my own. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know them and giving them the care and attention they need. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, a calm companion, or regular check-ins, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for and well looked after. I’m happy to provide updates and photos during visits so you always know how your pet is doing. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! I currently have a full-time job but have time for pet care on my days off or before/after work. I enjoy going on nature walks with my sister’s dogs. I visit my sister often and always enjoy seeing and walking her two shih tzu’s. They always make my days brighter and lift my mood. Whenever she is out of town, I stay at her house to dog sit. I enjoy taking them on walks around the neighborhood, make sure to keep them company and play with them.

About: I've been a cat parent all my life, and all-around animal lover. Now, I have two dogs (Damon and Matcha) and two kitties at home, all rescues. About half the time, I also volunteer to foster puppies that need homes, so I'm very experienced with dogs of all ages. Serving the Sterling area; I live across the street from Claude Moore park and love to explore the trails with four-legged friends. Summertime makes for the most gorgeous pictures, and I love capturing your fur babies on camera! I love all breeds, especially if they have good manners, but larger and more playful dogs will have the best time playing with my 3-year-old dog, Matcha. Caring for fur-babies is currently my full-time job, whether that's customers, fosters, or my own brood. I love all size dogs and cats! Most of the time, when I come into your home, your animals will let me know what their routine is! But specific instructions will help me out a lot too and are always appreciated.

Skyler was wonderful with my dog, Cooper! She was very responsive, sent lots of pictures and updates during the visit, and made sure he got his evening medication. Cooper seemed really comfortable with her right away, which gave me so much peace of mind. I really appreciated her communication and the great care she took of him. I would absolutely book with Skyler again and highly recommend her!

Claire was absolutely fantastic! She stepped in super last minute to walk our 65-lb Bernese Mountain Dog puppy, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the start, her communication was excellent — she kept us updated and made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. Claire was incredibly kind, patient, and clearly very comfortable handling a larger dog. Our pup came back happy and well exercised, which says everything. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I would recommend Claire any day and will absolutely be booking with her again. If you're looking for someone reliable, communicative, and great with dogs (especially bigger ones), Claire is the one!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Potomac Falls

Frequently asked questions about Rover

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

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

As of July 2026, there are 16,090 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Potomac Falls. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Potomac Falls. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Potomac Falls.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

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.

Every walker 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 .

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

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
