“Hannah is absolutely awesome! I booked her for a week to care for King, and she was incredibly timely, engaging, and focused on his needs every single day. She provided detailed notes after each visit, sent wonderful photos during their walks, and even left a sweet, handwritten thank-you note at the end of the booking. To top it off, when another walker had a last-minute transportation emergency this morning, I contacted Hannah, and she went completely out of her way to come out and help us on short notice. She is always responsive, highly professional, and truly cares about King. I cannot recommend her enough!”
“When I got home Ali seemed so happy. I am so glad I was able to find a good walker and look forward to continuing their help! Ali loved grant and it was so nice to know they liked her too!”
“Samantha was fantastic, one of the best dog sitters I have ever worked with. I have a very timid put and she understood the assignment the moment she stepped out of her car and now I have a sitter I can call on when I need to take care of Buxley. So thankful for finding her!”
“Melissa was great. My dog doesn’t always walk well for new people and he took to her right away. She took the time to come by for a meet and greet and we were really impressed!”
About: I used to work for the pet sitter company for the last 5 years and working with many various of sized dogs including cats. Willing to take care of special needs pets. I also can cover your fish feeding, lizards, and ferrets if needed. Hit me up. We can plan a planning. Woof woof! I’m currently self - employed part time. I’m usually available on many days. Would like to walk early morning and midday when you’re going to work or far away. Can cover the same pet in evening if something happens suddenly. Unfortunately, I live in someone’s place and have to follow his policies. No pets allowed in my home but good news I can take care of your pets in your sweet home.
“Christopher was absolutely great with my eight month old puppy, who had never had a dog walker before. He kept me updated and was always communicative. He also went the extra mile, playing with Honey after her walks. I highly recommend!”
“Megan was absolutely amazing! She responded to our last-minute booking request and took such great care of our dog. She went above and beyond to make sure our pup was walked, fed, and well cared for. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dog was in such kind and reliable hands. Megan was communicative, dependable, and truly showed that she cares about the pets she looks after. We are incredibly grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you so much, Megan!”
“Taylor has been walking Benji for a few months now and she’s incredible. Super communicative and also incredibly flexible with all of our crazy schedules. Benji also loves her and she’s so attentive to him and all of his preferences (like when he decides he’s done walking early).”
“Luke did great walking our large dog, Mozzie! He took him on long walks and always made sure he had enough water before going back in his crate. Luke followed all of our instructions and took great care of Mozzie and our home. We will definitely book him to walk Mozzie again!”
“Melissa really came through. Had issues with another Rover sitter watching my dogs whike out of town, and Melissa went above and beyond to help and take care of my Boxers!!”
About: I have had pets all my life. I started helping take care of my cat and dogs at around 10 years old. I help out with my friends and extended family members pets as well. My dog takes medication in the morning so I can administer medication if needed. She has also gone through two surgeries so I can help during pet recovery as well. I’ve had hyperactive dogs as well as territorial/ toy-aggressive dogs and know how to deal with them. I have also had dogs who needed extra care due to being old. I do know a little bit about training dogs but not much. I work part time and go to college full time. However, I live at home with my parents so I can fit pet care into my schedule. I have a fenced backyard for my dog to run around or just lay outside. I walk her 2/3 times a day and she gets fed twice a day, morning and evening. I also spend a lot of time with her whether it’s playing around or just watching tv. If I am caring for someone else’s pets, I feed the pets and play with them as well as hang out with them.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child starting with my personal dog. I have experience with administering medication and treating wounds. I also have experience with taking care of dogs that are not mine. I have taken care of my family friends dog for about a year. I have experience with taking care of dogs of all sizes. I am currently working a 9-5 full time job I will be able to take care of pets anytime after work and I have full availability on the weekends. When taking care of pets I always stay respectful and mindful of the owner’s boundaries. I make sure to show the animals plenty of love and care.
“Lohan is wonderful with King. He’s on time and reliable. One day it rained and he was concerned with King being comfortable in the weather conditions. King is excited for his walks with Lohan, as he wakes me up early to get him ready and then he patiently waits by the door. Lohan is very good with communicating with me and keeps me updated. I absolutely love the pictures I receive every morning. I would definitely recommend Lohan.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs for the last 11 years, I am a full time GMU student but I’m flexible with my schedule! I am a full time student at GMU but my classes are spread out so I have a lot of time to work with. I’m very willing to work something out to ensure your fur babies get good care. I will respect your home and house rules when dropping in or taking the pets for walks. I like to stay on routine to ensure the fur babies get good time to go outside, walk, play and feeding, crating or even cleaning up after them. I will also send pictures with updates.
About: I have experience caring for cats of all ages and dogs from puppies to seniors (small and medium breeds). I’m patient with puppies, attentive to senior needs, and always focused on maintaining routine, safety, and comfort. What sets me apart is my calm energy, reliability, and clear communication. I treat every pet with genuine care and adapt to their unique personality and needs. I currently have availability during evenings and weekends, and I’m committed to giving pets my full attention during that time. Pet care fits naturally into my routine — I plan ahead, maintain structure, and prioritize consistency to ensure every pet receives dependable, attentive care. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a clean, calm apartment with my two senior cats, so I understand the importance of routine, patience, and gentle care. In my client’s home, I follow all instructions closely and provide regular updates for peace of mind. In my home, pets are supervised, kept in a secure environment, and treated with the same care and respect as my own.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Potomac Mills
Toni was wonderful with Ana and Elsa! She was very patient and caring, especially with Ana, who can sometimes be a little stubborn during her walks. 😊 I really appreciated how attentive and understanding Toni was with both of them. I would definitely recommend her!
Luke did great walking our large dog, Mozzie! He took him on long walks and always made sure he had enough water before going back in his crate. Luke followed all of our instructions and took great care of Mozzie and our home. We will definitely book him to walk Mozzie again!
I hired her to care for my dog while I was out of the country for two weeks, and she did a great job. It was clear that she genuinely cared about my dog’s well-being. On the first day, an unexpected issue prevented her from getting into my house while I was on a 15-hour flight and unable to respond. She spent a considerable amount of time trying to gain access, repeatedly attempted to contact me, and explored other options because she was genuinely worried about my dog being left inside without care. Although she ultimately had to leave, her persistence and concern showed me that she took the situation—and her responsibility for my dog—very seriously. Throughout the rest of my trip, she was dependable, communicated well, and took good care of my dog. I felt comfortable knowing he was in capable hands and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker or pet sitter.
Meghan was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of our sweet Toby and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She was kind, reliable, and communicative throughout her visit. She even went above and beyond with a few thoughtful touches that were so appreciated. It’s clear she genuinely cares about both the pets and their owners. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter! ❤️🐾
Melissa is absolutely wonderful!!! My dog has only been left alone one time, so I was nervous leaving her for 9 days. But Melissa put all my worries to rest. I really enjoyed receiving the detailed reports and pictures twice a day. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing she was well cared for. I highly recommend Melissa! I will definitely hire her again for future vacations.
Ariana was fantastic! I was watching my friends dog and she is such a scared dog. She really worked with her and while she couldn’t get her out on the first walk to no fault of hers she took such care of her and it was truly sweet to see that by the end she let her pet her and no issues when she came to walk her and Ali again.
Lohan is wonderful with King. He’s on time and reliable. One day it rained and he was concerned with King being comfortable in the weather conditions. King is excited for his walks with Lohan, as he wakes me up early to get him ready and then he patiently waits by the door. Lohan is very good with communicating with me and keeps me updated. I absolutely love the pictures I receive every morning. I would definitely recommend Lohan.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking 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 Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Potomac Mills. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Potomac Mills.

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.
Every walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Potomac Mills. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
