About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a young child. My Bruno (12 lb Biewer Terrier) and my regular daycare friends will keep your pup company - as well as my two attentive and careful children (12 & 9). We will love your pet as if he/she is our own! As a teenager, I raised cockatiels and I volunteered for the Museum of Life and Sciences in Durham, NC taking care of exotic animals of all types and sizes. Now that we have a yard, I've been living my dream of having my own dog (5+ years). It turns out I am great with dogs! • I limit boarding to smaller dog breeds with the rare exception for daycare when I know the family and larger dog plays well. • I work from home, so I will be with them all day. • I have a large fenced-in backyard, where they can get their zoomies out, and go for potty breaks as needed. I go outside a lot, which brings them outside more too (they like to be wherever I am!) • If your dog likes car rides, let me know, he/she can come along for short errands and pickups to and from school. • I can watch other kinds of pets, as long as you can easily transport them to me: Birds, bunnies, etc. using my “cat” rate on Rover. Request a cat boarding and let me know about your pet. • I do not watch cats. We have allergies to them To get started, we will have a meet & greet over video or in person, and book from there. Please let me know: 1. Does your pup has any behavioral quirks to be aware? For example, he won't go potty unless he's on a walk. 2. Any special feeding instructions? 3. Any favorite games? Looking forward to meeting you! I work from home regular 9-5 hours. I take frequent breaks before, during, and after work to feed, potty and exercise our fur buddies. I'm here to let them in and out of our large backyard for frequent breaks and play time. I have a large fenced backyard, with pickets to keep smaller breeds safe. I'm constantly checking that the gates are closed. They can sleep anywhere in our house, and most are comfortable doing so without a crate. When the weather is nice, I'll work on our deck to give them more outside time (because let's face it... these velcro sweeties want to be wherever I am!)
“Mandana did an amazing job with our very energetic doberman pup! When we picked him up it was obvious he had a great time. Highly recommend Mandana; she’s very friendly and did a great job taking care of the pup (including walks/feeding). We will definitely be back!!”
About: I have been caring for animals since 2018 and have experience working at multiple dog boarding facilities. At one facility, I worked for over six years, where I cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. My experience includes feeding, cleaning, supervising playtime, and ensuring dogs feel safe and comfortable in a structured environment. I also have personal experience caring for senior dogs, which has helped me develop patience and attentiveness to animals with special needs. In addition to dogs, I have experience caring for rabbits, guinea pigs, and parakeets, and I understand the importance of providing gentle, calm care for small animals. My schedule is flexible, and I am currently available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and small animal care throughout the week. I am available during weekdays and have limited availability on weekends. I do my best to accommodate each client’s schedule and provide consistent, reliable care. I keep my schedule organized to ensure every animal receives the time and attention they deserve. The safety and well-being of every animal in my care is my top priority. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, and needs to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. I provide a calm, quiet environment and always supervise animals closely during my care. I am attentive to details such as feeding instructions, medications (if needed), and safe handling. I also make sure pets are kept in a clean, secure space and follow any specific instructions provided by their owner. My goal is to create a stress-free experience where both pets and owners feel confident and at ease.
“My dog Luna has been to daycare with Cesar several times now and she looks forward to going and comes back happy and tired! She loves their dog Jasper and when not playing with him likes to sun herself in his big backyard. Thank you for taking such good care of my girl and sending me pictures and updates throughout the day!”
About: As a dog owner myself, I know it’s hard to trust others to care for your pet. They are not just pets but a valuable member of the family that deserves the utmost care and love. I believe that I can provide that for others. I currently have a pretty flexible schedule so pet care on a daily basis will be easily manageable. Scheduling with me will be easy because of my availability. I am willing to do whatever it takes to make sure your fur baby is comfortable. I can accommodate any sleeping arrangements such as a crate. As for walking, I can take any route that your dog is comfortable taking.
“LaurieBeth did such a wonderful job with my pup, Mocha! I dropped off Mocha for doggy day care for the first time and I so appreciated the photo updates to see how she was doing. LaurieBeth was very communicative and Mocha enjoyed her stay. We already can't wait for the next visit!”
“MC was a great sitter for my puppy! It was the very first time that she was away from me, and she had no problems at all. As soon as I met MC, she made my pup feel at peace, and I was updated continuously throughout the day. Would love to book with her again”
About: I’ve owned and cared for my own Labradors for most of my life. I will care for your fur babies like my own. When I have multiple dogs, I always supervise and don’t leave them alone. I will always ensure that your pets are fed, walked, kept clean, and given the attention they deserve. I do require that we do a meet and greet before accepting boarding services. I want to make sure that your dog, myself and my dog would make a good fit. I have a 17 year old daughter, who loves dogs, that assists me. She is definitely one doggy whisperer and the resident treat giver and the doggos know it! I am mostly available on the weekends. I can also provide services on the weekdays after 5:00pm. I do work full time and I do find that my sense of relaxation and de stressing after work is enjoying the company of my dog and your pets. I make sure they are fed, walked, groomed, kept clean and given the love and attention they deserve. With multiple dogs it’s always supervised. I do have a fenced yard and gates to separate smaller dogs from big dogs if needed.
“Jennifer took wonderful care of my small little Yorkie and her dog Sunny was such a gentle playmate! I was so grateful to leave my dog in such a sweet, loving home and will definitely book again!”
About: I have been around pets my entire life. I have been taking care of neighbors and friends pets while they are away since childhood and have been a proud pet owner since adulthood. I would love to provide a positive and fun experience for your pet while you are away! I am a teacher but am preparing to go on summer break. I will have lots of free time to ensure that your pet receives copious amounts of love and attention. I always try to make sure that I follow any guidelines set by the owner. I make sure to give them multiple walks and feedings a day, and plenty of 1 on 1 play time and attention.
“Carmen and Daniel were excellent dog sitters! I needed a sitter for my dog Queen while I was at work. They were so easy to work with and Queen loved her time with them! She was exhausted every night I picked her up because she got to play with their puppy all day. I will definitely bring Queen to them again and recommend them for anyone who needs their baby looked after!!”
About: Throughout my life I've recognized, and it's been noted by many, that animals naturally love and trust me. I was raised in the country and grew up taking care of all kinds of creatures. I'm comfortable and experienced with dogs young and old. Your pet will be my #1 priority. I work from home and have a lot of free time throughout the day for lunchtime walks and hikes. If your dog is able to handle stairs, they can hang out with me in my office while I work. I'm an avid hiker and would love to take your dog on local adventures with me. Daily exercise is guaranteed. I'm a responsible adult and live alone in a single family home with a fenced back yard that has doggy door access during daylight hours. There's even a ramp for older dogs. The house has carpet runners over the wood and tile floors for those older pups who have trouble navigating slippery surfaces. Upstairs access can be limited for those dogs who have trouble with stairs. Being an experienced dog owner, I am always mindful of things they can get into.
About: Greetings pet lovers! I have much experience with cats and dogs, and have 1 dog myself. I grew up with 2 cats at first, and found myself adding more cats to the family that were found as strays. I've taken care of 6 cats in all when I was younger, and grew up with 2 dogs as I got older. I also have fostered dogs in the past. As a dog owner who raised his furbaby since he was a puppy, I am accustomed to dog training, walking dogs on a regular basis, positive reinforcement, feeding, bathing, and administering medicine that is needed. If your dog just needs a lot of exercise under my care, I'm the guy for you! I enjoy jogging with dogs if they can keep a solid pace. I will walk your dog as needed depending on their energy level. I also frequent various dog parks for my dog to enjoy, and your dog is welcome for the fun! I am very patient and determined to get your pet to feel absolutely comfortable and happy in my care! I am available 24/7 for your pet needs. I currently work from home and have setup a cozy space for your pet if needed to board. 3-4 walks + daily dog park (if permissible by owner) is what you should expect for hosting your dog. I have a dog park and a pet bathing room at my complex and 1 super friendly dog who will keep your pet company! My dog is good with other dogs and cats! He actually likes playing with cats too! I offer a safe, comfortable environment for your pet.
“I had a great experience! Kaylyn and Naman accommodated my last minute booking and took great care of my dogs. I’ll definitely be booking with them in the future!”

“Dale and Karen were very sweet and cared for my dog like they would their own. They were very flexible and accommodating. They even had a little report card at the end of the day to let me know how he did. They are my go-to sitters now.”

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Potomac Falls commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in VA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 5,101 sitters in Potomac Falls, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
