âHannah did so well with our dogs! We needed a sitter to drop-in on them short notice, and she was able to cover it. She left good notes and lots of pictures from the drop-in visits. The dogs were their normal, happy selves when we got back at the end of the day!â

âDenisa is the sweetest!! She is so good to my pup and sends a ton of pictures so I know what they are up to on her visits with him. Sheâs always very communicative and perfect!! Sheâs the best:)â


âGrace was excellent with our two cats. One of them is very shy but she went out of our way to make sure she saw him and ensure all was well. We will definitely be using her again!â


âWilliam started weekly stop ins for my dog Dakota and working with him has been fantastic. Heâs responsive and professional and very sweet with my dog. Dakota looks forward to her walks.â

âMelissa was amazing doing a drop-in visit for our four doggies while we were out all day! We have one dog who is pretty shy as she was feral, and I loved seeing a photo where she actually was by Melissa! Shows us Melissa has great vibes and energy, and when the dogs approve, so do us humans! Thank you so much Melissa!!đâ


About: Iâve had dogs my whole life, I have personal experience taking care of dogs from puppies to old age, a German Shepard, a Maltese and a puppy Cavapoo:) I am currently in nursing school as a full time student, I wake up early to take out my personal dogs and Iâm back near noon to feed and take them out, on the days that I am off I give full attention to the doggies giving them play time, and their meals I currently have 2 dogs house trained, both are very friendly I have a large backyard, where I have plenty of grass area for dogs to potty and play. I feed my dogs twice a day and provide them water.
About: My passion for animals drives me to provide you with a service of safety and security for your pets but, most importantly, the love I provide. My journey of fostering animals started in 2019. Without a doubt, I knew I would love to continue helping people and pets in my free time. I love meeting new pets, and my outgoing personality helps your pets feel energized and safe. I am a very well-experienced sitter as I am very detailed with pet behavior and know how to handle animal care, like giving medication. I am currently a full-time college student with a part-time job. My schedule will be open for the afternoon and evening. My weekend schedule will be available for the evening as well. I have added a well plan schedule below. Monday - after 1:40 pm Tuesday- after 3:00 pm Wednesday - after 5:00 pm Thursday - after 3:00 pm Friday - after 2:00 pm Saturday early morning and evening Sunday evening only In-home care will be safe for your pets as I myself don't have any pets. This will allow me to give your pet my full attention to care for them. I have a fenced backyard, which will give your pet space to roam around. As for client home care, I follow all given guidelines to make you feel comfortable, and your pets will receive all their needs met.
âExcellent service, everyday day providing updates with pictures. Actually, we owe her an apology, because we responded to her messages lateâor didn't respond at all, so weâre sorry about that đ thank you again for everything, taking your time to be with our doggie and playing with her too.â


About: Iâve mostly taken care of small creatures on my lifetime. I used to own parakeets and currently I own a leopard gecko whom I absolutely adore! I always wanted to own cats and/or dogs growing up but Iâve never been allowed to do that because my mom is irrationally afraid of both. I used to own a kitten but we had to give it away because my mom thought she could handle it but she was just too scared of it. Iâve taken care of other peopleâs cats and dogs before and I get along well with all animals! Since Iâm unemployed, I am free anytime other than Saturday and Sunday mornings. Saturday I have classes from 10 am to 12 pm and Sundays I have church from 9 am to 11 am. I unfortunately do not CURRENTLY have anything that is specifically catered to dogs or cats in my house or yard, as I do not own either at the moment. I can certainly do my absolute best to cater to your animalâs needs, however!
âAndrea was excellent in caring for our kitties over a two week trip away! I can tell they loved her, and she went above and beyond to make sure they had everything needed. We will be using her services again if she is available in the future!â

âMarina went over and above for our older Mastador, letting her wander and sniff to her hearts content. We will absolutely be using her again if she is available.â
About: I'm a former emergency veterinary technician from the University of Florida who loves all animals, but especially dogs! I graduated UF with a degree in Wildlife Ecology and Conservation but did Animal Sciences for 4 years before switching. I'm good with dogs of all sizes, am firm but still a good playmate, and am comfortable working with dogs both healthy and special needs (dog needs to take a pill? I've got you covered!) If an emergency situation comes up, you can count on me to keep your dog safe. I have a dog of my own who keeps me very active so you won't have to worry about your pooch out running me! Have other pets? No problem! I've worked with all animals, cats, birds (have my own!), reptiles, fish, rodents, you name it! My schedule is flexible so long as I am given time beforehand to coordinate! I am currently in between jobs and am very available, with a reliable car for transportation. I always prefer to meet my clients and their pets beforehand that way I can get a good understanding of what is expected and what I should anticipate. I cannot board animals at my home but am more than happy to come to yours!
About: I think what sets me apart from other people is that I enjoy the cats and dogs company even if they donât enjoy mine so I give the them a lot of attention and a lot of pets. I also like to make sure that they get an even amount of food because my cats and dog love to eat others food even after eating a lot. Pet care fits into my daily routine by giving my pets food and water in the morning, making sure they have time to exercise and play, and spending time with them throughout the day. Since I only go to school one day a week, I have more time to care for them, keep their environment clean, and give them the attention they need. I also make sure they are fed in the evening and have everything they need before I go to bed. I always give them the love and attention because thatâs what a human needs also, I love giving pets, refilling the water bowl because itâs very cute seeing them drink water and I refill their kibble. I also love playing with them with the little toys and brushing their hair because itâs very calming.
âThis is our second time having Olivia drop in to feed our cats while we were away. Very last minute request for the Christmas weekend and she was able to accommodate us no problem. Thanks again!â

About: Iâve taken care of all types of dogs since I was 14 years old. Friends, Family, and Neighbors have trustingly relied on me for feeding, watering, grooming, and playing with there fur babies. I am great with problem solving, communication, and body language when it comes to your fur babies safety and happiness. I work my own hours so I can be very flexible with my schedule to fit your pets needs. I adjust routines to fit your pets needs as well. Your pets safety, needs, and happiness are my first priority. I follow within your pets routine that is handed to me. I will always communicate/update you anywhere and anytime on your pets.
âSandra did a phenomenal job caring for Yema while we were away! She treated her with so much care, kindness, and attention, which gave us great peace of mind during our time away. We especially appreciated the photos she provided with each visitâthey allowed us to see how happy and well cared for Yema was. Sandra was dependable, thoughtful, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!â

About: I've helped raise my two family dogs! A Jack Russell Terrier and a Great Pyrenees. My family has had both since they were puppies so I have experience with puppy care! Having both breeds, I'm used to both small and large dogs. I have also been hired by family and friends to watch and walk their dogs while away on trips. I'm currently a college student and a part-time worker! I am able to find time in afternoons after my classes/shifts to take care of pets! I can do drop-ins to keep your pets daily routine uninterrupted! I am able to feed and replenish water bowls, take pets on potty breaks, and give some 1-1 attention!

Hannah did so well with our dogs! We needed a sitter to drop-in on them short notice, and she was able to cover it. She left good notes and lots of pictures from the drop-in visits. The dogs were their normal, happy selves when we got back at the end of the day!

Amanda did amazing job with administering subcutaneous fluid to my Yorkie! She took the time to help him feel relaxed before starting the procedure. We found some new ways to make the experience easy on him. I feel more relaxed about the whole procedure as well, seeing how she moves through the process!
Taylor is a rare and lucky find! She has such a lighthearted, caring personality and isnât intimidated by Bailey and Dakotaâs enthusiastic nature. During our meet-and-greet, my girls were so excited to see her and wanted to be around her the entire time. I immediately knew she was the right person for them! Taylor is punctual, attentive, and an excellent communicator. She asks thoughtful questions about the girlsâ routines, toys, and individual needs, and proactively discusses solutions when challenges arise (like getting my stubborn Bailey upstairs!). I especially appreciate her affectionate updates and her confidence in communicating questions or concerns. They give me tremendous peace of mind while Iâm on campus. Most importantly, I trust Taylor with my girls, and Iâm so grateful to have found her!

Traveling and being away from my cats has always been so hard on me but for the first time ever, I was able to truly relax and enjoy a long trip, and that is all thanks to Mrs. Pamela! She is genuinely one of the best, if not THE best, pet sitters I've ever had. She is incredibly thorough and attentive in her care. She follows and respects every instruction, no matter how detailed or particular. She is quick to respond to messages and not only provides plenty of photos but also the most thoughtful and detailed summaries of each visit. They gave me so much comfort and peace of mind while I was away. My usually shy cats warmed up to her well and it was so reassuring to know they were in such loving and capable hands. Overall, I can't express how grateful I am. She went above and beyond, not just in caring for my cats but in making the entire experience so much easier for me as a pet parent. I truly cannot recommend her enough!!!!

The process with Brenda was very smooth. She was flexible with our relatively last minute booking and the meet and greet went well. She is punctual and followed our exact routine. Most importantly, all 3 of my cats felt very comfortable around her. Will definitely be using her services again in the future!

Leila was AMAZING. I really appreciated how she was able to communicate with me so much as she checked in with Lola! This was my first time leaving her by herself so that check in with Leila was much needed. I am literally rebooking her right now! Leila thank you so much for making Lola feel special and really paying attention to her needs while you were there! Lola will see you soon đ

Gabriela has built a great relationship with my two dogs. They totally enjoy her and are excited to see her every time. Gabriela is the only one I have been able to trust with my pets since Iâve moved them here. Her availability is always convenient and she always gives great updates during the day. We are so appreciative her services.

We cannot thank Megan enough for the great care she gave to our pets for 6 days so we could Enjoy our time at the beach - and these weren't normal pets! She loved on our bearded dragon, fed him bugs, gave him Showers (which makes him go to the bathroom haha). She also cared for our aquatic frog. She brought in mail. She sent photos. She was on time every day. We will definitely always hire Megan to care for our family pets. We didn't worry about them one second. Thank you so much Megan!

Lohan did an amazing job taking care of Tracy and Lola! He stepped in last minute and went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for. He exceeded my expectations, was kind, dependable, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely book his services again the next time I need someone to care for my pets. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Potomac Mills is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $34 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 petâs 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 14,532 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Potomac Mills. 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 petâs routine and the sitterâs 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 petâs 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 youâre away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent youâd 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, donât 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 Justiceâs 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 Roverâs 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 Mills. 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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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.
