“My fur baby is not overly friendly. I didn’t think he would come out for Krystin but he did AND he let her pet him. I am amazed. Krystin has that something special pets sense. She is awesome!”
“Raven is amazing! She took such good care of our pets, showed up exactly when we expected her to, and her communication was above and beyond. I felt so relaxed during our vacation knowing that they were all being taken care of. Highly recommend!”
“Destiny was on time, provided details about her care of my Fancee and pictures. I really appreciate how she handled Fancee with her minor leg injury and just how professional she was. I look forward to working with her again.”

About: I've been dog sitting for friends and family for years and I also spent several months as a paid dog walker in Washington, DC. I have experience with all kinds of dog personalities, from high anxiety and high energy, to chill on the couch and sleep-all-day kinds of doggos. I use a Fear Free framework with all of the dogs I take care of and I work hard to co-regulate to your dog's needs whenever we're sharing space. My schedule is very open and flexible all day, every day, so I am happy to structure my day around all of your dog's needs. I am attentive to your dog's needs and I am generally able to sense when they're feeling stressed. The more you can tell me about what your dog likes, the better I'll be able to assess what they need if they're feeling anxious. Additionally, I'm very comfortable managing your home. Hiring me as your dog sitter means that you're also hiring someone who is prioritizing taking care of your home, itself.

About: I've always been surrounded by pets, my aunts/uncles/cousins/relatives and friends have always had dogs but because of money my family could never afford to get our own. We would take care of them when needed and don't consider it a chore but rather fun. I have a younger sister who loves dogs as well and will definitely play with them and keep them happy. We like to take walks and take them to a huge field near by or to the national arboretum as well. We are very loving and caring and just love to have more company. I work full-time nearby, 20 minutes away, and come home in the afternoon. My mom works part-time and she is home early on the days she works. We take several walks during the day. I have a fenced back yard for quick potty breaks if needed. We allow pets to sleep/lounge on our couches and have access to be around our rooms.
About: Mom of 2 boys, experienced with cats and dogs…as well as other animals! I would love to help care for your pets while you are away! Flexible hours all summer as we are out of school! I am available after 3:00 pm on the weekdays. I have a flexible schedule in the summer as we are out of school! Weekends also flexible. I will make sure your pets are safe and cared for during our walks and visits. We will stay on sidewalks and pathways in the respective neighborhoods.
About: I had a black lab growing up and now I have a 7lb chihuahua named Chloe who is super chill, harmless who keeps to herself. She acts more like a cat. I've dog sat for friends in the past as well as been a dog walker for neighbors. I work from home and have been for years so I'm pretty flexible. I may only leave to run errands but I am usually not gone for long periods of time. I walk my dog 3X a day, we take actual walks. She is getting old and doesn't like to be out much, but I really do enjoy the outdoors. My dog roams free when I'm home. I usually crate her and will crate your dog as well if I step out. I live in a large community with plenty of walking space. I have two kids, 10 and 14 who love dogs as well, but I'm responsible for walking and taking care of the dogs. My son is the one who really likes to play with other dogs because Chloe is not a playful, fetching type of dog. I've used Rover myself a couple of times when I was out of town.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Brandywine stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Brandywine choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Brandywine with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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 sitter.
