“Mickey took amazing care of my 2 fur babies, Juno and Willow. He messaged me every single day and updated me. He even sent pictures and videos of them playing! I highly recommend Mickey as a dog sitter to anyone and will surely spread the word. When I picked my babies up they were happy and healthy and even better behaved! Thank you so much! I will surely contact you again for our next family vacation!”
“Does a great job giving updates when asked. Got some great pics. Treated Ilona like she was part of the family. They bonded with her so much they were sad to see her leave.”
“Marcela was caring and welcoming to our pup. She was able to tire him out which is a huge feat! She updated us daily on what was happening and even sent photos. Our pup was well loved and cared for in their home. Highly recommend them!”
“I am so pleased I was able to found boarding for my doggie Jojo with Chelsea. I was constantly kept informed by way of pictures and notes of how he was doing. My pet appeared to feel comfortable and at home. In my opinion from the updates it was due to the care and love shown to him. I’m truly grateful; this was the longest period I was away from him. I will definitely use the service in the future based on opportunity and or availability. Thank you Chelsea & family”
“I can always tell that my dog has an amazing time at Michelle’s when he stays with her and her family! Thank you for always taking such great care of our Mugi”
“Robyn came through when I needed it! Very personable, professional and accommodating! Looking forward to establishing a long lived boarding a relationship for the very near future! ;-)”
“Veronica is great! We were away for a week and our dogs Tammy and Rover stayed with her. They are in great shape when we picked them up. Very pleased with her services. She responds quickly to inquiries, sent me photos, took my dogs for walks, and made my dogs feel loved while we were away. Highly recommended and will definitely use her again.”
“Jim has been our go to pet sitter for almost 3 years now. He is great at communicating and always makes sure our dogs are comfortable and happy. It’s hard to leave them when we travel, but it’s great to know they’re being taken care of and nothing to worry about.”
“Adita was just fabulous taking care of my dogs for almost 5 days! I have never left them alone ever and this was my first time but she was so reliable and kept me out of worrying for my pups. She and her family took care of both my dogs. Best part was she kept sending me videos and pictures and also updates for my dogs food, walk and naps. I will definitely be trusting her again with my pups. She's simply the best.”
“Matthew took great care of our dog! He regularly sent pictures and our pup came home exhausted from all the yard/park play. Will definitely book again with him next time we go away.”
“Rae was great! My boy, Walter, sometimes takes minute to adjust and settle in. But, with Rae he fit right it immediately and had so much fun. She took pictures and let me know he was OK, and even brought him on some errands with her. I’ll definitely be booking with Rae again.”
“John and Joanna are wonderful, they kept me updated about how my pup was doing with lots of pictures. They are very knowledgeable about dachshunds and took great care of my boy.”
“Dasia was fantastic again! It’s so great to find someone you feel comfortable to watch your pet. Dasia provided updates and pictures throughout the stay. She was amazing.”
“Sunny had a great stay and felt like part of the family. Christine was very flexible with drop off and pick up and provided good communication.”
“Karen was amazing & accommodating! My flight returning was delayed and she was flexible & communicative! She kept me up to date when plenty of pictures! 10/10! Highly recommended! Thank you Karen!”
“Andrea was absolutely fabulous!! She kept my dog for a couple of days while we moved. My dog became immediately attached to her and she handled both my dog and hers so so well! My dog typically doesn’t like other dogs, however Andrea understood both of their personalities intuitively and was able to adjust to them to make each comfortable and even tolerable of each other. When I came to pick Josie up I saw they were even sharing toys!! ? 5/5 highly recommend! I will be rebooking Andrea in future.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Potomac Heights
Mr. Romero was wonderful. We were in a pinch and nervous about getting a quality dog sitter on short notice, but thankfully Mr. Romero was available. Throughout our dog Dexter’s stay, Jesus was very responsive to my messages, sending photos and videos. He was clear with procedures for drop off and pick up. Dexter was happy to be in the Romero house while we were out of town. We highly recommend!
We love Mickey! He’s trained my dog continually and kept my dog during the weekend to get him more used to other dogs and everything has gone well! We will continue training for life! Mickey is laid back and explains everything sufficiently for my family to use tactics for our dog.
Jesus always takes incredible care of our golden retriever, Teddy. We originally worked with Jesus to train Teddy as a puppy, and now he’s the only person we trust to board him when we’re out of town. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing Teddy is with someone who truly cares about him. Jesus sends us plenty of photos and videos throughout each stay, so we always know Teddy is having the best time. The biggest sign of all is how excited Teddy gets when we drop him off. He is always so thrilled to see Jesus. I highly recommend Jesus for boarding or training needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Potomac Heights home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Potomac Heights.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Potomac Heights sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
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 MD 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
