“Very impressed with the care Jesus provided for my Kota. He provided videos and updates through out the day. I work very long days, so the updates were very reassuring while I was away. Reliable/trustworthy/attentive. Would recommend! Thank you Jesus!”
“Seyla provides excellent care for our dog, Bleu! Bleu is given opportunities for exercise, socialization with other dogs, and experiences many adventures involving hiking and running. Seyla is an excellent doggy daycare provider!”
About: Hi, I’m Nicole! I am a trustworthy professional who loves animals. I understand the dedication and commitment required to look after your pet. I know that each pet has their own personality and style and I will be sure to adapt to exactly what your pet needs and wants. I’ve been petting sitting since 2012. During my visits I take pride in walking, feeding, and providing endless affection to your pet. I also welcome your furry friends into my home. Your dog or cat will feel right at home and are guaranteed to be the main spotlight.
“Thank you Azaria. I really appreciate you keeping my dog happy throughout the day and your thorough communication. I hope we can do this again soon with you for Chewie. He needed that bolt of energy/spark.”
“Kady was great with Thor. I appreciate her being available with a last minute request. She’s very flexible and reliable. I also appreciated the updates and pics. We’ll be back again!”
“This was the first time in 12 years I have used a dog sitter, and it will not be the last time because of Rebeca and Roman. They were very responsive from the beginning of the Rover process, and they continued throughout the four days I used their services. Rebeca greeted us every morning and afternoon with a smile. After the first day, Maple could not wait to get to Rebeca, literally jumping from my arms to her arms when we arrived at Rebeca/Roman’s home. I received a daily picture and even a video of Maple during the day. I had no concerns during the four days of daycare because of the pleasant attitude, daily photos, and Maple’s behavior before and after her time with Rebeca and Roman. Overall, a great experience. I will 100% use Rebeca and Roman again!!!”
“Vanessa and Geoffrey were so kind and professional with the initial meet and greet for doggy daycare. They sent lots of updates and pictures to put my mind at ease. This was our first in-home dog care experience, and we will definitely be back!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I enjoy taking care of animals, spending time with them. I’m willing to work with your puppies or senior dogs providing good care. I do work part-time and would love to spend my free time taking care of your babies whether that’s walking them, playing with them or simply giving them attention. And making sure they are well cared for! I have a fenced and spacious yard. My home is dog-friendly, clean and safe. I’ll keep you updated on your fur baby with photos, videos and messages.
About: I can accommodate your pets needs. My home is ideally suited for pets–a spacious, fully-fenced backyard for dogs to run around safely, I will maintain a calming presence with your dog. Walking/ running, fetch the ball are some outdoor activities to strengthen the bond with your dog. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I have a dog and have kept dogs for others. I take our dog out for walks and play-time with other dogs in the neighborhood . Diesel is very friendly, energetic and loving. My house has a large fenced yard. It’s not my practice to crate dogs. However, I can crate your dog if requested. I provide dog beds and allow dogs to move about freely. No one else will be assisting me with caring for your dog.
“My pup had a great time at Russ's house! She came back super tired from playing with the other dogs. Russ sent me several updates throughout the day, which I really loved. Drop off and pick up was super easy- I will be using Russ again!”
“Jona was amazing with Caruso who is a very shy dog and has separation anxiety. She made him feel very comfortable within a few minutes of our arrival and he responded to her quickly. He usually backs away from strangers and hides behind me but she was able to establish a rapport with him quickly by sitting on the floor and talking to him until he became comfortable enough to let her pet him.”
“My dog and I just moved to a new area so I was anxious about finding someone to watch him while we get settled. Jennifer and Justin were so kind and sent me plenty of photos throughout the day. They even very kindly washed his bowl after he ate his food. My dog had an amazing time and I would trust them to watch him again”
“Apollo loves coming here and being able to play with other dogs. After a not so great experience with a different Rover sitter, Alex and Eddie have put my mind at ease for our 10 month old German Shepard puppy who needs to be running around at all times.”
About: Caring for dogs has been a part of my life for over 13 years. I have experience caring for my own dogs as well as dogs belonging to friends, family, and others who have trusted me with their pets. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, energy level, and needs, and I approach each one with patience, consistency, and kindness. My experience includes daily walks, exercise, mental stimulation, reinforcing positive behaviors, and providing calm, reliable care, especially for dogs who need extra reassurance or structure. I have firsthand experience working with shelter dogs and understand how important trust and routine are in helping dogs feel safe and confident. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to make each walk or visit a positive, stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Pet sitting and dog walking fit perfectly into my current schedule. We recently moved to the area, and at this time I am not pursuing full-time employment so I can settle in, explore the community, and maintain a flexible daily routine. All of my children are in school, and my own dogs are on a consistent schedule with early morning walks and daily exercise starting around 5:00 AM. This routine allows me to be fully present for my pets first thing in the morning while freeing up a large portion of my day for additional walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. Because of this structure, I am reliable, flexible, and able to accommodate daytime and early afternoon care with consistency and attention. Pet care is something I truly enjoy, and my schedule allows me to provide unhurried, attentive care to every animal I work with. I am a very meticulous person and strongly believe that a clean environment is a safe environment. Whether I am caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, I prioritize cleanliness, organization, and consistency to ensure pets feel secure and well cared for. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, exercise, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I keep living spaces tidy, food and water areas clean, and ensure toys, leashes, and resting areas are safe and well-maintained. I also pay close attention to a pet’s behavior and comfort level, adjusting care as needed to reduce stress and promote well-being. My goal is to provide calm, dependable care in a clean, structured environment so pets feel safe, relaxed, and at home, no matter where they are.
“It means soo much to have a safe space for my dog, my baby, to stay and play with humans and other dogs. Thanks Tanita and Terrence for such great and attentive service!”
“Telma and as great! My pup took to her immediately and was excited to see her daily. She provide updates and kept him active thru the day! Can't thank her enough, for coming through when I was in a bind”

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 Heights 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 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.
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 4,560 sitters in Potomac Heights, 86% 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.
