“Lissa was awesome! She was great at letting me know how my cat was doing every day. I felt my cat was in loving hands! Would definitely recommend Lissa and would use her again!”
“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!!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Melinda was very easy and pleasant to work with from start to finish. We felt very comfortable having our dog in her care which made for a stress-free vacation for us. We could tell from the pictures Melinda took that our girl was happy and and from the notes that she was well cared for. Would happily hire Melinda again.”
“Raquel was amazing! She stepped in on short notice and took great care of Ivy! She was very communicative and went above and beyond in treating her as if she as her own! Highly recommend!”
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.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my dedication to providing specialized care tailored to each pet's needs. I have experience in training puppies and providing gentle care for senior pets. I understand that every furry friend is unique, and I strive to create a personalized and loving experience for each one. My goal is to ensure their comfort, happiness, and overall well-being while their owners are away. Being home full time allows me to fully dedicate myself to pet care. It's a part of my daily routine, ensuring that I can give your precious fur babies all the attention, love, and care they deserve. Whether it's feeding, playing, or just cuddling, I'm always there for them! As a pet watcher, I make sure to follow any specific instructions given by the owner, such as feeding schedules, administering medications if needed, and providing plenty of playtime and affection. I strive to create a comfortable and familiar environment for the cats/dogs, reducing any stress or anxiety they may experience while their owners are away.
“This was my first time using Rover. I chose Skyler based on his reviews. Everything went great. He communicated, showed up on time and sent me some pictures. I was so nervous to leave my puppy but things went really well. I will definitely be using Skyler again”
“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!!!”
About: I have been a caretaker of doggies since elementary school! We have always had a dog member of our household. I often take care of my sibling’s dog during travel. I sometimes walk my neighbor‘s dog when requested. We lost Our dog almost a year ago, so I am excited to get back in the “pet” of things again. I currently work full-time Monday through Friday. I am available to care your pet overnight starting at 4:30pm on on Fridays through Sunday evening, with additional availability on holidays. I look forward to fun times with your adorable doggie on the weekends! -I am also available for dog walking after 5pm weekday evenings. Message me for Saturday/Sunday availability (for walks). I have a small fenced in backyard, so we can spend some time outback. My neighborhood is super dog friendly. There are plenty of places for us to explore. We don’t currently have any pets in our home, so your pet would certainly have all the attention!
“Megan did a great job taking care of our menagerie of pets! I liked seeing their pictures every day while we were out of town. Even our most shy cat came out of hiding to meet her!”
“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 !”
“Megan was a very thoughtful and responsive sitter. I appreciated the care she took with my senior cat and the updates that she provided. It was nice to know that my cat was being well taken care of and I would recommend Megan as a sitter to others.”
“Daniela provided excellent service and top notch communication. I had to schedule service with short notice and she went above and beyond to ensure I had an awesome experience.”
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.
About: Hi, I'm Bugra, and I'm passionate about providing the best care for your furry family members. With over 15 years of experience in dog sitting, I’ve had the pleasure of working with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments, from playful puppies to senior dogs with special needs. I understand that leaving your dog in someone else's care can be stressful, but rest assured, I treat every dog like my own. I’ll ensure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m experienced in administering medications, dealing with behavioral issues, and providing companionship for dogs who need extra attention. I work remote and have a flexible schedule. Whether it’s early morning walks, feeding schedules, or playtime, I build my routine around your pet’s individual needs I’m able to give your dog all the attention needed, and they would never be unattended. Feel free to bring their favourite toys or let them choose from our selection. I live in a town house, and I have a back yard for leash walks and fresh air. Just tell me about their usual day and we’ll make it happen! Looking forward to meeting your furry family member, and I’ll love them like they’re my own!

Kayla was so wonderful! She went above and beyond with our dog Duke, making sure he was adequately cared for. They took really nice long walks and she even went back to check on him an additional time even though we didn’t book/pay for it. She was incredibly communicative and sent photos so we could enjoy our time away 💗 We will absolutely be rebooking in the future!
Nicole was wonderful taking care of my cat, Kafka, while I was out of town. She made sure he had his food, gave him his medication, and spent time playing with him and also send me pictures of him. Since Kafka is 19 years old, I really appreciated her care and attention. I highly recommend Nicole!
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.
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Potomac Falls is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $31 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 November 2026, there are 15,976 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 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:
- 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
