Doggy Day Care in Brandywine

“Incredible! Another great day for Pablo with Joseph. Lots of photos, great care and plenty of outdoor play time. It’s more like a vacation for Pablo only if he could express😊 thanks Joseph!”

“We did a quick meet-and-greet the day before I left Pepper with Melissa & Cody and I immediately felt very comfortable with them and their residence, especially that large fenced-in yard. I can always tell when Pepper has a good time somewhere by how tired she is when I pick her up!. Suffice to say, she must have had a very good time with Melissa & Cody. I highly recommend them for your pooch(es). Will definitely go back to them.”

“Beth is truly a dog lover! She’s incredibly professional and loves your dog like they’re her own. Her sweet boy Ottis loves having playmates, and she takes time and care to make sure your dog is well cared for and loved. 100% recommend her!!”

“Ami & James are wonderful! They provided wonderful care for our dog. Communication was excellent and we got so many pictures and videos throughout the day. We would not hesitate to use Ami & James again and highly recommend them!”

About: Hi, I’m Jenning — your dog’s new favorite human 🐾✨ I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years — from bouncy puppies to sweet seniors and everything in between. I’m that person who stops mid-conversation to greet a dog on the street, no shame. Whether your pup needs a long walk, some TLC while you’re away, or just a familiar face to help ease separation anxiety, I’m your girl. I live in a beautiful, pet-friendly apartment in Wilmington, DE with my own sweet dog (a total angel), and I treat every dog that comes into my space like family. Think cozy vibes, lots of affection, and a whole lot of tail wags. I work from home most days, so I’m fully present for the pups in my care. I’m also big on structure and communication — you’ll get regular updates, pics, and total peace of mind knowing your dog is safe, loved, and thriving.I’ve handled all types of breeds, temperaments, and special needs. High-energy? Let’s run it out. Shy and sensitive? I’ll sit with them until they’re ready. I’m here to make sure your dog feels at home, even when you’re not. Let’s get your pup on my calendar. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give pets the time, attention, and love they need throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday play sessions, or winding down with evening cuddles, I build my day around the dogs in my care. I’m super intentional about keeping a calm, structured, and loving environment — so your pet’s routine becomes part of mine, seamlessly. Whether a dog is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in theirs, I always prioritize a calm, clean, and secure environment. In my home, dogs have designated cozy spaces to relax, constant supervision, and absolutely zero access to anything that could put them at risk. I keep my place tidy, dog-friendly, and peaceful — no chaos, just good energy and tail wags. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat the space with deep respect and follow every instruction to the letter — feeding, crate time, meds, routines — all of it. I always check gates, doors, and anything else that could affect a pet’s safety. I believe in clear communication, gentle leadership, and building trust through consistency and affection. Every dog is different, and I take the time to understand their needs so they feel secure, seen, and fully cared for — wherever they are

“Was very friendly and welcoming. Kept me updated and informed with my puppy. He seemed very calm and happy. Definitely recommend and would be back!”

“When I say Ms. Rita is an ALL STAR sitter, I’m talking about a true professional. I don’t even LIVE in Delaware, but I attended my brother’s wedding there, and she literally SAVED MY LIFE at the last moment, and babysat my pup BLUE at the last minute! I reached out to her at 7:30 in the morning, for an afternoon drop off, and not only did she reply almost immediately to confirm some details, she accepted the booking! Ms. Rita is just as DELIGHTFUL, WARM, KIND, PROFESSIONAL, CARING, and OVERALL AMAZING as she may appear on this profile. I have never left my dog anywhere except for his groomer, and I was PLEASANTLY shocked at how well my dog took to her and her FABULOUS dog, and the other dog that she was watching. Not only did she send me photo updates, she was so highly communicative the entire time before during and even after…. I mean…. I made my brother’s wedding, and didn’t have to worry about my dog and his accommodations (dogs weren’t showered unfortunately) because I was so grateful for and confident in the care being provided by Ms. Rita. Folks… don’t overwhelm her with bookings… but definitely look no further !!!! She is phenomenal, and I wish I lived in Delaware now just so that I can bring my fur baby here more often! I can only hope to find someone like her in NY. Thank you again!!!!! She is simply the best! I feel like she treated my dog like her very own ??? Great sitter.”

“Chris put my mind at ease knowing I left my pup is such great hands!! She took great care of my Macey and showed her lots of love while we were gone :)”

About: My family is a huge pet family and we have had several dogs of different breeds and sizes, so we are very comfortable with any dog - big or small. We recently adopted a Great Pyr/Pit puppy, Leo, and he is a big goofball. He LOVES other dogs, has had plenty of experience already with our Rover pups and is a big, submissive softie. That being said, he loves to play and wrestle, but if your dog isn't interested he may stare longingly at them from across the room, but will respect their boundaries. My husband and I work from home so we have plenty of time to give your pup attention. We also have 3 kids (9, 7 and 4) who are extremely caring and respectful of animals and they would be thrilled to help care for your pet while you are away. There will be no shortage of snuggles if your pup is a cuddler! And if not, that’s ok too! We teach our kids healthy boundaries and how to respect every dog’s needs. We have a one acre lot with an invisible fence and a quiet neighborhood to take nice long walks. We also have a “step dog,” a 5 year old Golden Retriever, that visits often and would love some new friends to play with. We have a 1 year old cat who has been brought up around all of our Rover pups, so he is very used to new dogs coming into his home. He may play if your dog is interested, but otherwise he will just go about his business and ignore them. We have watched several dogs that had no experience with cats before this and they have all done very well together. We understand each dog is different and would love to chat to see if we would be a good home-away-from-home for your pup! My husband and I both work from home, so we are around during the day to care for your pup. We are available weekdays or weekends and would consider short term care (1-2 days) or longer care if needed! We have a one acre lot and an invisible fence, but understand not all dogs are trained on this and would only use it if your pup has prior experience and ample time to get used to the property and fence at my house. Otherwise, we live in a quiet neighborhood and would love to take your dog on walks or play fetch out in the yard!

“We booked Shanisa last minute to watch our two dogs, and we couldn’t have been more thrilled. We had a meet-and-greet before, and she was clearly very kind and engaged with the dogs. She had an array of toys and harnesses and came extremely prepared. She sent us video and photo updates to put us at ease. Our dogs had a blast, and we just wish she was in every city we visited!”

“Cindi is phenomenal with Finn! He absolutely loves going to her house and playing with all the other pups. She spends time to personally to get to know you and your pup. Makes you feel comfortable leaving your pet there. He has become more social and well-behaved for a new puppy. happy to have found her and honestly Finn never wants to leave haha!”

About: My name is Eleanor. In the last year we recently lost our own senior dogs who were 17, 16 and 15. We recently fostered and subsequently adopted a corgi puppy who just recovered from heart surgery. I am also the mom of five children who are 12, 10, 8 and 3 year old twins. I have provided pet care services for many years but am starting back up after the addition of our twins :) My husband works from home which allows me to come help you with your furry friend! I am on the board of a senior dog rescue called Senior Dog Haven and Hospice and ran it for 10+ years until I recently passed on the reins. We rescue dogs aged 7 and up that have found themselves homeless later in life. I love animals, especially elderly ones, and have dedicated my life to their care. I have fostered almost 100 senior dogs in the last 10 years and have a ton of experience with special needs dogs. I would love to come love on your dog and spoil them anytime you need me! We require your furry friend to be kid friendly as they will get lots of love from our pack of children! I am a stay at home mom with a husband that works from home. Our schedule is extremely flexible and someone is almost always home. I have a one acre fenced in yard that has a small dog and large dog fenced in area. I love animals and will always take the very best care of them!

About: I provide loving, personalized care for all pets. I’m experienced caring for puppies and senior pets, including giving medication and extra support. Your pet will feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. I make sure to spend quality time feeding, walking, playing, and monitoring each pet’s health every day. I also keep a consistent schedule to help pets feel comfortable and secure. On a weekly basis, I update owners with reports and adjust care as needed to meet each pet’s unique needs. At my home, where I live in an apartment with my friendly dog, I create a safe, clean, and comfortable space for pets to relax and play. I stick to their regular routines for feeding, exercise, and rest to keep them happy and stress-free. For clients’ homes, I follow instructions closely, maintaining their pet’s usual schedule and environment to minimize disruption. In both settings, I provide lots of attention, affection, and monitor their health to ensure they’re feeling their best.

“Olive loved her stay! Eva was super responsive, kind, and did great caring for such a young puppy. I had peace of mind all day that Olive was being taken care of. She can’t wait to come back soon!”

“Amy and Cathy were very good with my old man Sidney, who is a sort of anxious beagle mix. They indulged me with a second meet and greet before his first stay. Apparently he didn't miss me as much as I thought he would! He did well and we will definitely be going back. Thanks so much!”

About: I grew up with dogs and have had cats as an adult. I love dogs but I travel too much to have my own, so pet sitting is the next best thing. I work from home and have good control over my schedule. I already take walk breaks during the day (including 45 min - 1 hour at lunchtime) and have a large fenced yard. I give lots of attention and cuddles to any dogs and cats in my care, and ensure plenty of playtime, running, and walks. Dogs and cats are welcome in my workspace while I’m working, and on the furniture throughout the house.

About: My beloved pet Cookie just passed away at age 18. I gave her plenty of love and care and will do the same for your dog/s. Can’t wait to snuggle with your pet and treat him or her like Family. I live in the Garnet Valley School District and have lots of time to give your dog happy hellos, soft snuggles and loyal Friendship. I have experience in letting dogs out from at their home and taking dogs for walks when owners are away on vacation. I love making dogs happy with kind words, food/treats, sitting next to them and rubbing their belly. My home is perfect for boarding because I live in a quiet, traffic free area and it safe to walk or board your adorable pet. I also have a gated deck to enjoy fresh air when the weather is nice. If your preference is to leave your furry friend in your home, I would gladly come out to your home to look after your pet/s in their familiar environment.

About: Hi I’m Jess! I’ve previously worked for petsmart and have owned pets all of my life! I’ve got experience as a bird owner for over 20 years with multiple types of birds. I have been a sitter for dogs of all sizes including a coon hound, pit mix, corgi, and a golden doodle. I’ve even made homemade dog food when necessary! I have also been a sitter for cats! I’m willing to get my hands dirty and am used to cleaning up for and bathing dogs in my home as well! I love the outdoors and walking dogs, so your dog will get plenty of outside time. There is a state park close to my home that I frequent. If you have other animals in your home like Guinea pigs, hamsters, birds, lizards, etc I can care for them too with my knowledge from working at Petsmart. Helping me will be my significant other who currently works for petsmart also. I’m an animal lover at heart and will take great care of your pet as if it were my own! I’m home 24/7 to care for your pet, with a very flexible open schedule. I have nothing but lots of time to devote to your pet. I have a safe apartment complex with other leashed dogs that are all friendly surrounding me. My home is smoke free and we don’t use aerosols or candles due to owning birds. Our birds are kept separate from your animals and your pet will be supervised and played with and let out for potty breaks and walks every hour or two.

About: I've been around dogs and cats my whole life, growing up with pets since I was a baby. This experience taught me how to care for animals by keeping them fed, active, and loved. I've cared for pets of all breeds and ages, learning to be patient, responsible, and attentive to their needs. On my days off, I volunteer at a shelter, making sure the animals feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I'm confident that I would be a great choice to take care of your dog with the same love and attention. I’m currently available 24/7 and have a lot of time to dedicate to caring for animals. I am committed to pursuing a career where I can work 100% with animals, which allows me to give them my full attention and care at all times. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or other pets, I’m ready to be there whenever you need assistance. I have a spacious house with a small patio, which I think would be a great option for dogs and cats, allowing them to feel comfortable and at ease.
