“John was amazing with our two pups! He saved our trip by agreeing last minute to help out. He provided great updates, he was very thorough and detailed and he showed a great deal of care for the dogs! Would highly recommend him to anyone!”
“This was our first time with Rover, and Luca loved Skyler from the minute he met him at our meet-and-greet! Skyler is a natural with him and comes fully prepared to best take care of your pup! Couldn't be more pleased.”
About: Hi! I’m a full-time professional and lifelong animal lover who enjoys spending my free time caring for pets. I understand how important it is to know your furry family members are in good hands, and I treat every pet with the same care, patience, and attention I would give my own. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their routine, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work full time, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time before and after work, as well as on weekends, to caring for pets. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so walks, playtime, feeding, and providing companionship are activities I genuinely look forward to. I make it a priority to be reliable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs to ensure they feel comfortable and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I follow all instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and supervision while keeping their environment clean and safe. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they're away. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and welcoming environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I ensure they have access to fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and lots of affection. I pay close attention to each pet's personality and needs, whether they prefer active play or a quieter environment, and I treat every pet as if they were part of my own family.
“Skyler is great with our puppy! She feels like she cares for our little guy like her own. She always send detailed updates and great photos and videos. We know our puppy is in good hands when she comes to watch him. We appreciate her warmth as well as her professionalism. We will definitely use her in the future!”
“Sanya must be a kitty wizard - My two boys have never been so calm and happy upon my return from vacation. She fed them their special food, entertained them while doing her task (as shown in the many pics I got over her time taking care of them) and made them completely comfortable, which is no small feat with these two shy and picky ones! I highly recommend her!!”
“Julia was great with our 4 dogs and 2 cats. She made smart suggestions and helped out with our schedule and was very flexible for last minute weekend visits. The animals absolutely Love her!”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since Middle School! In addition to having many family pets over the years, I have had the opportunity to care for a variety of animals and have had many regulars. I treat each pet as if it’s my own and I take pet care very seriously since I also have my own and understand the importance of the care provided. I have worked with dogs and cats of all ages and breeds. I have worked with many rescues, large breeds, and many anxiety-ridden dogs. I have administered meds and dealt with heartworm with my rescue. I have had experience w/many special needs & seniors as well. I am currently working full time. This schedule is Tuesday-Friday. Weekday evenings after 5pm are available and Sat, Sun, and Monday are all flexible time-wise I currently have my own dogs so I would not bring animals here. I will treat each client’s home as they prefer and I’m very adept at adapting to different routines and environments.
“Courtney was so sweet with our puppy -- she spent extra time with her and sent along great videos. She was super flexible and easy to work with, even though we were a bit last minute. We'll certainly ask her to help out again! Thank you!”
“We discovered Marianne at the last minute right before a holiday trip. She was responsive, prompt, and communicative throughout. Each drop-in was well documented. Excellent experience. We will definitely rebook!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs in my family of all shapes and sizes for years. I love animals and would care for yours as my own! I am currently a student at JMU, studying biology with a minor in pre veterinary sciences! I am on winter break right now and am totally free for the next month! I am strong and athletic, so while walking dogs I would be a good candidate. I also love to play with dogs so if i’m just dropping in I will have fun with them!
“Jessica is an absolutely wonderful dog sitter, she’s super helpful with being flexible around my weird work schedule and Jacks always seems to be in a great mood after a visit from her.”
“Sarina is the best! She is very easy to work with, trustworthy, and my dog loves her. As a pet owner, it is so comforting to watch Sophie run to the door with her tail wagging furiously when Sarina stops by.”
About: I took care of dogs and cats of all ages and health conditions. Administered pills and injections including insulin and subcutaneous fluids. No empty promises, just good service. I will communicate properly and timely. My work schedule is flexible and I am about to become empty nester. I work remotely and can do it from anywhere with internet access. I can follow your instructions precisely and provide feedback, photos and updates. I will play, walk, feed and comfort your pet so they feel loved.
“June was a reliable and trustworthy caregiver for our 2 cats for 6 days. They're shy and didn't warm up to a stranger in that short time but we never worried about them or our home; the cats were fed and clean and safe, we received daily photos and reports, and June even cleaned one cat's throw-up from a rug and called us in real time when one cat was hiding (he promptly showed himself the next day). Our home was respected and secure as well. Thanks June!”
“Cliff was fantastic, I highly recommend! He was easy to schedule with, super communicative, and sent detailed reports/pics over. My cat felt immediately comfortable with him and she’s super picky about who she gets along with. Will definitely be booking with Cliff again!”

Chelsea was great with taking care of our two cats again! She communicated any schedule conflicts with us before confirming the booking, was adaptable with new care instructions, was very accommodating with us when our travel plans changed, and even brought in our trash cans for us! Most importantly, our boys like her and we know they are getting the care they need. Thanks so much, Chelsea!
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.😂
Marcia did an amazing job watching my 2 cats while I was away for a weekend. She shared a lot of pictures showing them getting playtime, being fed, litterbox status, and water bowl status, and also videos. She also made time very quickly to accommodate my last minute request so we were able to have a meet and greet beforehand. Marcia was very prompt and showed up on time for every scheduled drop-in, and followed instructions to a "T". She was also kind enough to bring packages in without being asked, so they didn't sit out while I was gone.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 16,280 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
