“Lissa did an amazing job taking care of our little dog, Remy! He had a great time with her! She was very flexible and willing to shift things around as our plans changed a bit last-minute. She not only took him for walks, but played with him indoors as the weather wasn’t conducive to being outside. Every visit, she sent both my husband and I messages with tons of photos and updates. Lissa is the best and we will definitely be asking her to take care of Remy in the future!”
“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+!”
About: Hi, I'm Alyssa! Dogs and cats have been part of my life for decades, and caring for them is my passion. I've pet sat for all kinds of personalities, from playful pups to cuddly cats, and I treat every pet like my own. Expect walks, snuggles, playtime, and regular updates so you can travel worry-free. Pet care fits easily into my routine. I'm currently working part time, so my schedule is flexible and I'm home for much of the day. That means I can stick to your pet's normal feeding, walk, and play schedule, give them plenty of attention, and be available for last-minute or extended stays. Your pet won't be left alone for long stretches with me. In my home, pets get a safe, comfortable space with their own bed, plenty of playtime, regular walks, and lots of attention. I follow your pet's feeding, medication, and bedtime routines so they stay comfortable and feel at ease. In your home, I keep your pet's routine as close to normal as possible, with feedings, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles on their usual schedule. I also bring in mail, tidy up after your pet, and send you photo and text updates throughout the stay.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and ages since I was young. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. I’m available for pet care on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. During these days, I have dedicated time to focus fully on each pet’s needs, including feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I prioritize safety and follow all care instructions closely. I keep a clean, calm environment and always supervise pets. I’m comfortable with crates, routines, medications if needed, and I provide regular updates to pet parents for peace of mind.
About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, from working breeds on the farm to small companion dogs, cats, and fish. I’ve pet sat for family, rescued animals, and learned that every pet has their own personality and needs. As a rescue dog mom myself, I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I treat every animal in my care like family, whether they need playtime, extra attention, or simply a little patience and companionship. I have a very flexible schedule. Whether overnights or dropping by, Let me know what time or day you need me and I will be there. It all depends on the animals personality, and needs. I will do whatever the instructions or recommendations are with a personal touch of a whole lot of love.
“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 have loved dogs my whole life, but when I adopted a senior dog in college I truly fell in love and spoiled her with walks, pets, and coordinated outfits! I have dog sat for the numerous dogs in my family as well. I am a student with a variable schedule and don’t have the resources for my own dog at this time, so I would love to help you with yours:) I am a student with a variable schedule! Right now I am working 2-3 12 hour shifts per week and have the other days completely off! I believe in treating all things with respect especially when it comes to other people’s loved ones and belongings. I work in the medical field and find a lot of joy in taking care of others which extends to animals as well.
“Skylar was very responsive and flexible! My dogs are like my babies, and it made me feel great that they were in such good hands. They were happy and well-cared for :)”
“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.😂”
“Hilary did an awesome job taking care of my cat while I was out of town for the holidays! She checked in with him and sent me full and detailed updates each time. She also went above and beyond in taking care of my place and making sure that it was incredibly clean when I came home!”
“Our Charlotte loves being with Rachel, even when Charlotte isn't feeling well. It has brought so much peace of mind for us 😀 and giving us a much needed break from the necessary around the clock care. Thank you, Rachel!”
“Ana is incredible and was so attentive to our girl, making sure she felt safe and loved while we were gone. We highly recommend her to anyone who wants peace of mind that their fur babies will be loved and well cared for. ❤️”
About: I’ve had pets around my home since I was five years old and my family adopted my cats Rex and Sally, a bonded brother/sister pair. From that young age I was always expected and taught to help with the pets’ care, even the less glamorous parts. Later in my life we adopted my dog, Bella, who I diligently made sure got her daily walks, play, and food. While Rex and Sally have unfortunately passed (Sally in 2018 and Rex in 2025 at the age of 21), I currently still have two lovely kitties, both of which have very different personalities (one is very affectionate and the other is skittish), and I always ensure to accommodate the both of them and their unique needs for their boundaries. I work part time and am also a student, so my main availability is mornings and late afternoons/evenings. Though, my schedule often works out that I have plenty of hours to take care of furry friends! At my house I have plenty of toys and stimulation set up for my two cats, and it’s the same when I’m visiting my dog (she currently lives out of state with my dad). I always make sure to learn a pet’s individual personality and cater how I care for them to it! I know some animals absolutely adore a high level of energy, while others respond better to calmness, and I’m always sure to factor that in for whatever I’m doing for them.
“Cassidy did such a great job with my pets. Specially when it comes to my foster kittens who are straight from the street and who I am trying to socialize, I was nervous about leaving them alone. They are terrified of strangers. But they warmed up to Cassidy day one and were comfortable with her. Thank you so much!”
About: Hello! I have been taking care of dogs since I first got my own over 20 years ago! But professionally, I have worked as a pet sitter for all kinds of animals with multiple pet sitting companies in the area for over a decade now:) I hope to branch and work with more clientele through Rover. I am currently a pet sitter for a private company but I also have plenty of time to devote to other families outside here on Rover :) I take a lot of pride in caring for not only a client’s pets to the highest degree when they’re in my care but also their home.
“Kalpana was amazing! She sent me tons of photos of my kitties. She spent time hanging out with them and keeping them company. They looked happy which set my mind at ease. I would recommend Kalpana to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“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 !”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Potomac Falls
Michelle was wonderful taking care of Leo and Lucia. She sent detailed updates and photos after each visit, and we really enjoyed reading about her interactions with Leo. She was attentive, thoughtful and even took care of a few things we hadn’t asked her to do. You can tell she genuinely loves cats, and her updates gave us a few good laughs. We’d definitely book her again and highly recommend her!
Cassidy took excellent care of my two cats while we were out of town. She followed all care instructions, gave them their medications, helped with packages, and even put the cat furniture back into place after the cleaners came by. We look forward to booking Cassidy again soon!
We've trusted John with the care of our 17-year-old Shih tzu-Poodle for over a year now, and he's become our go-to choice whenever we travel. He's consistently reliable and punctual, and he never cuts corners—he always stays for the full 30-minute visit, giving our beloved pet the attention she deserves. What really sets him apart is his attention to detail: he sends us pictures after every visit, which has become the highlight of our days while we're away. Knowing our girl is in such caring hands brings us complete peace of mind. We can't recommend John highly enough, and we're grateful to have found such a trustworthy pet sitter.
I'd tell everyone that they should work with Brooke, but I'm afraid that if I do she may not have time for my Sadie :) But seriously, you should work with Brooke. She's so caring and thoughtful with my pup and I feel more peaceful leaving Sadie knowing that Brooke is going to check in on her.
We were super worried at first because it’s always hard to leave our dogs with someone else, but she quickly made us feel comfortable and reassured. She was very reliable, kind, and understanding, and we could tell that she genuinely cared about our dogs. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands while we were away. We really appreciated everything she did and would definitely trust her to take care of our dogs again.
Abigail took care of my 2 aging fur babies for several days. I couldn't be happier when I saw the daily photos of my female cat being social with Abigail!!! My female cat is normally very standoffish with strangers, but not with Abigail. Animals know when a person is good, and they loved her! My fur babies give Abigail 5+ Stars. I will definitely schedule with Abigail again. :)
Marti took wonderful care of my dog, Waffles, while he was recovering from surgery this week. Handing over care during recovery can be stressful, but Marti put us completely at ease. She is incredibly responsive, communicates clearly, and is fantastic with animals. We are so grateful for her help and highly recommend her to anyone!
Jen was absolutely amazing. She paid so much attention to our kitties, making sure she spent a lot of time with them so they weren't as lonely while we were gone. She was understanding and compassionate when they were acting out and leaving messes on our rugs, she cleaned it and remediated it as well as gave me advice for how to ensure they wouldn't do it again. We are SO grateful for her care and expertise and highly recommend her to anyone who wants to make sure their animals are loved and cared for! Thank you, Jen!
Fantastic as always. Being away from our furbabies is always hard but knowing Cliff is watching them is one less stressor off our checklist while we're away from our boys. We know they are well taken care of and loved. Cliff communicates beautifully and sends updates with each check-in with loads of pics and notes. Highly recommend like always! If you want your furbabies well taken care of, choose Cliff! Thanks Cliff!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Potomac Falls is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 15,986 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Potomac Falls. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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 , 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:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
