“This was my first time using Rover and she truly made me feel confident and comfortable leaving my babies! She kept in contact and updated me every step of the way. I will definitely be using her in the future!”

“I highly recommend Ciara. A very caring and lovely young lady. She sent me pictures and videos while I was away on holiday. Due to a flight delay I was late picking up my fur babies and she said no problem. She is patient and kind. We finally arrived at her home late at night. Ciara greeted us with a smile and packed up our fur babies bags. Kobi, Sophie and Ruby were happy and tired when they came home. I definitely will request Ciara again. 10 star rating.”

“Reid is always great with our dog Lando! I continue to rebook anytime we need dog coverage! He provides excellent communication and pictures/videos of Lando while we’re away. Eases some of the stress of leaving our fur baby!”

About: I've had cats and dogs my whole life and have spent most of my adult life volunteering for 2 animal rescue organizations. I fostered over 170 cats for my last organization (that was over a period of 15 years!) caring for all ages as well as taking in some with medical needs. I'm skilled at administering medications of all sorts and we currently have an asthmatic cat that takes an inhaler. I've been a "cat person" my whole life, but love dogs too! My husband and I love the large breeds, in particular Mastiffs. We currently have 3 cats plus a Mastiff who is the biggest baby. :-) We recently moved to Delaware (from just outside of DC) and I'm looking to re-start pet sitting as I LOVE meeting new furbabies and taking care of them. I used to pet sit in VA but put it to the side when fostering took up most of my free time. I recently took an early retirement and have plenty of free time so can offer flexibility. Since I'm married my husband helps takes care of our own cats/dog, and he understands my love of animals and desire to help others. I understand that every cat/dog is unique, with their own personality and needs. I will take the time to get to know each one and tailor my approach to ensure their comfort level,
About: From caring for 10 senior dogs at a rescue, to bathing dogs that got sprayed by skunks, to training and taking dogs on their own outings to parks and nature hikes, you name it I’ve done it! Even flying with dogs! ✈️ I have experience with all breeds, ages, and like to keep pet parents informed with notes & pics. Growing up in farm country taught me to love and care for all animals, but dogs and cats are by far my favorite. I also have experience in administering medications to our furry friends. I left my career of being a nanny in CA to move to the east coast to marry my husband. That was 2019, and I’ve been boarding/caring for animals since then. I’m currently a stay-at-home wifey so the dogs get 100 percent of my attention when they are with us. We live in a 3 story townhouse with a small unfenced yard in front of our home, to a large grassy area on the side of our home, to a giant green grass patch directly behind us just out our back door. The neighborhood is VERY dog-friendly with lots of sidewalks and comes complete with a dog park in walking distance. Our home is dog-friendly meaning dogs are allowed on all furniture and we even have doggie steps for little pooches to get up on our bed if they wish. We also have a 2mile + walking path near us. So we have plenty of activity options. We even have Pluto cartoons for your pet to watch! Pets get 100 percent of my attention when they stay with us. Their comfort and safety is my priority as I do pet care full-time. Our home has no place that’s off limits to your pets. If they want to snuggle on our bed or relax on our couch or even be in our guest room - they are more than welcome wherever they are most comfortable. We even have a massive bean bag most animals love thinking it’s a giant dog bed 😂.
“Rebecca did an excellent job staying at our home with Pippin! She was really prepared with questions to help the weekend good smoothly and to understand his needs. She was very responsive to messages and sent detailed updates and pics. Our pup had a great time!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing care from Matt (and Jenni’s team)! Matt was incredible with our dogs—very engaged, friendly, and professional. We received timely photo updates at all the key moments of the day, and it was clear the dogs were happy and relaxed, like we never left! Everything was neat and tidy when we returned. We highly recommend the wonderful team of Jenni & Matt for anyone looking for truly attentive and caring pet sitters.”

“We loved Tre! From the minute he pulled into the driveway, we felt comfortable that he would be a great fit to care for our enthusiastic pittie mix. He asked pertinent questions and took detailed notes during the meet and greet. Our dog responded so favorably to him and the became fast friends. We highly recommend him and will definitely be working together in the future.”

“Michaela took excellent care of my dog and cat while we were away. She took the time to meet us beforehand, provided thorough updates and we came home to happy pets and a clean apartment. Thank you, Michaela! Highly recommend!”

About: As an engineer and proud owner of two large dogs, I bring attention to detail, and reliability to pet care. I am organized, observant, and proactive, ensuring every walk, meal, and play session is safe, structured, and enjoyable. With years of hands-on experience caring for my own dogs, I carefully observe behaviors, anticipate needs, and provide personalized love and attention, giving each pet a happy, and secure experience. I am a full-time Engineer working a 4-10 schedule where I am off 3 days per week. I have plenty of time to take care of pets during the weekends. I have 2 dogs that are extremely well behaved and friendly. They are both crate trained and love to play in the fenced in backyard.
“Jonaika is a mature, kind, responsible and communicative young woman. She stayed in our home with our two dogs for a holiday week, and provided loving and consistent care. She has a warm temperament which dogs loved, flows instructions, and cares for pets with great accountability. I highly recommend Jonaika for any pet sitting situation.”

“Terry was absolutely incredible and took the best care of our 2 kitties when we went out of town! Daily pictures and videos, so many updates and great communication! I would give her even more stars if I could. We have never felt safer leaving our babies in another's hands, and we could not recommend her enough. She truly goes above and beyond. :)”

“Busara is the best! Maxwell has a great time and is always well cared for! I have no worries when I’m not there because I know Busara is always there to save the day and make sure Maxwell has great company”

About: Need someone who can handle more than just a walk in the park? I was raised on a farm and have professional zoo experience. I have cared for many animals and can administer meds, handle large breeds and provide loving care. Currently a dog and turtle owner, I am a responsible professional looking to help you enjoy your travels worry-free. I am available anytime on weekends. During the week, I can provide care in the early mornings before 8:00 AM and in the evenings after 5:00 PM. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while you are away. Drawing on my background in zoo and farm care, I am meticulous about following instruction whether that involves administering medication, adhering to strict feeding schedules, or managing specific turnout times. Because I work full-time, I structure my care around a schedule during the week: I provide quality care, exercise, and feeding before 8:00 AM and after 5:00 PM, while weekends are open for longer adventures and companionship. I treat your home with the same respect as your animals. I am experienced in maintaining a clean environment and can provide regular photo updates so you can enjoy your own adventures knowing your home and pets are secure.

About: I am currently unemployed and will be spending my time with the animals i love looking after. I also do thrift as another side hustle. I’m free Sundays through Saturday’s! I can do overnight stays or i can just pop in and play and feed the animals if that’s what you need me to do! My husband and i have a medium/longhaired black cat! she is my little cuddle bug. we are always playing with feather toys, balls with bells and lots of cuddles. My cat is an indoor cat, so i keep her busy and loved, so i would hope to do the same when cat sitting yours as well!

About: What sets me apart is my patience, attention, and genuine love for pets. I take the time to understand each pet’s needs and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m gentle with senior pets and patient with puppies. I work from home part-time, which allows me to be available to take good care of your pet during the day and or the night I care for pets by following their daily routine, giving them love, attention, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I treat every pet like my own, whether in my home or my client’s home.

About: I took my cat in 2 years ago from a bad home in November and named him nala. At the the time i was young but i knew it was the right decision to give him a better life because he deserves it. I love to babysit animals but i’ve never done it for the money but just for the love. Im currently out of school working as a pharmacy tech and I work at Amazon from Sunday to Wednesday all the other days I’m completely free. I live in a town home with my family in Newark Delaware it’s very spacious and there are older kids ranging from 17-21. I usually let the animals do as they please if they are properly trained.

I highly recommend Ciara. A very caring and lovely young lady. She sent me pictures and videos while I was away on holiday.

Ciara greeted us with a smile and packed up our fur babies bags. Kobi, Sophie and Ruby were happy and tired when they came home. I definitely will request Ciara again. 10 star rating.

Jess was amazing! She watched our two dogs and stayed at our house while we were out of the country. Jess was very accommodating and we received lots of updates and pictures of the pups every day. We came home to our house just as we left it and the linens in the laundry. This was our first booking and we felt very confident leaving our pets with her. Highly recommend booking with Jess!

Rackeeem was amazing! He took care of our house and our furry babies (a cat and a dog). He is great with animals. My cat is a very shy one. He always hides when I am away. But somehow, after eleven years I have him, he said hi to Rackeen, and also played with him! I highly recommend him.
