About: Caring for animals since childhood, dogs, cats, even birds. I’m equally comfortable with energetic puppies and gentle with senior dogs who need extra care and attention. Genuine experience, real love for animals, every visit. I do this full-time with a flexible schedule, so I can be as available as your pet needs — whether that’s a quick daily visit or extended care throughout the day. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, giving medication, and making time for playtime, so your pet’s routine stays consistent even when you’re not there. In my home, your pet gets my full attention in a calm, no-kids, no-other-pets apartment setting, so there’s no competition for space or attention. I keep to their normal feeding and medication schedule and make time for regular play and exercise. In your home, I follow your pet’s existing routine as closely as possible, feeding times, walks, meds, and playtime, so their day feels normal even while you’re away. I’m also happy to handle basics like bringing in mail and keeping the house secure. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, a walk, or overnight boarding or house sitting, I adjust my approach to fit the service and your pet’s needs

“Elizabeth was a wonderful sitter for Odie. She was very attentive to his specific needs and was more than capable of handling my 85lb Shepard mix. Odie was relaxed and happy while I was away even with his severe separation anxiety. 100% would recommend her as your next sitter!”

“Rebook rebook rebook. I absolutely love the time and dedication that Joseph provides to each and every dog I see in the videos and my Bentley the time he takes to send me pictures and videos when I’m away to give me reassurance is so soothing the day he retires from doing this is the day. I will be sad because I found my forever border in Joseph.”

About: I’ve grown up w/ dogs all my life! I’ve had 2 of my own that have unfortunately passed & although I’m not emotionally ready to take in another dog fully, I thought this would be the perfect situation for me! I have a backyard w/ fence for them to play & run around, enough space inside my house for them to have their own back room, love going on walks around the neighborhood! I’m currently employed full time, work 3 days/12hr shifts a week so I have time during the week & weekends to play w/ your baby! I have a backyard that is fenced & there’s one small dog that’s always downstairs (sister in law lives in basement, owns dog) but if the dog I’m sitting is friendly they have a friend they can play with! Also have an empty back room that has a gate that dog can have room to relax in!

About: Extremely flexible! I'm experienced in taking care of cats, dogs, turtles, bearded dragons, and fish. I would love to give your furbaby the best care possible! I am a recent graduate from the University of Delaware. My schedule is pretty flexible this summer, I am extremely communicative & love to care for pets. I live with 2 dogs & 2 cats. The cats & dogs are separated. I am very patient with animals! I am also extremely diligent with their care such as cleaning food/water bowls, scooping poop, changing pee pads, following feeding/medication schedule, and playing with animals.

What a wonderful, stress-free experience we had with LaToya! Our sweet little dog is a bit on the anxious side, she's almost 11, but still becomes pretty nervous on the way to the groomer and vet. She's slow to warm up to new people, but surprisingly, she immediately took to LaToya! This literally has never happened, so I knew right away that it was a match made in heaven! LaToya was incredibly responsive, shared pics daily and provided updates about our little one's adjustment process and her week. Leaving our dog with LaToya felt like leaving her with family. We're grateful for that and excited to now have a very comfortable option for her new home away from home when needed. FIVE PLUS stars for sure! Definitely intend to use LaToya's services again and I highly recommend her without reservation! You will not be disappointed! Thank you LaToya!

Susan was wonderful! She clearly knows dogs and did everything to make Cheyenne's transition smooth and easy. I felt so comfortable leaving her with Susan because I knew she would be loved and in good hands. She was communicative and flexible and I know Cheyenne is looking forward to lounging in the yard again!

This is the second time we have used Elisabeth. Her and her family are so sweet and treat the dogs they watch like their own! She watched our dog for 2 weeks which is the longest we’ve been apart, and Elisabeth was amazing with sending us pictures and updates. It made us feel so much better! We will definitely book again!

This was our first time using a dog sitter, and since this is our first pup, we really didn’t know what to expect. But honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She went above and beyond to care for our puppy as if he were her own. The constant photos and updates gave us so much peace of mind and showed us just how happy and well cared for he was. Claudia was professional, polite, caring, and an excellent communicator. The place was clean, and everything was just wonderful. If I could give her 10 stars, I absolutely would! We are so grateful we found her and will definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their dog. Thank you once again Claudia. 😊

I’m grateful that Lindsey accepted Cecelia in her home as her own, and for the gentle care that she provided. From the pictures Lindsey sent me and the texts on the daily basis (even multiple times a day), I could tell that Cecelia was feeling very comfortable, happy, and content that all her needs were being met. I highly recommend Lindsey, and would definitely ask her for the care of Cecelia again.

Paige is absolutely incredible! If you’re searching for a home away from home for your furry friends, look no further, Paige is the perfect choice. She excels at communication, providing regular updates with pictures and detailed descriptions of what the dogs have been up to, ensuring peace of mind at all times. Paige has also been very flexible in accommodating our schedule. She made sure our girls were well-fed, walked, and, above all, showered with love and snuggles. Our dogs enjoyed their stay so much that one of my huskies even tried to go back inside when we came to pick them up! I couldn’t recommend Paige highly enough!

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Bear

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Bear on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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

There are 968 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Bear. About 91% of Bear sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d 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.

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 pet, 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.

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 .

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 DE ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
