“My rescue dog can sometimes be hesitant to trust men but Mark knew just what to do to put her at ease. Mark was punctual and very pleasant and helpful. I will not hesitate to ask Mark to walk Leia again.”
“When I was injured and unable to walk my dog, Luna, Matthew was an absolute lifesaver. He showed up every single day; rain or shine; right on time, without fail. His reliability and dedication gave me such peace of mind during a challenging time. Not only was he dependable, but Luna absolutely adores him. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the dogs he walks. Matthew’s consistency, kindness, and professionalism have been an essential part of both my recovery and Luna’s happiness. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog walker.”
“My two dogs had a great time with John. My neighbor saw him walking the dogs and was impressed with his enthusiasm and care. I agree. Thanks John for helping me out. I will definitely try to book John again the next time.”
“Danica is wonderful! She’s responsive, positive, and puts me at ease knowing my dog is in such capable and caring hands. I love the pictures and notes she includes in her report cards. I highly recommending her for all your dog walking needs!!”
“Jordana is one of the best! She went out of her way to make us feel comfortable as we left our Stella for the weekend. She sent photos and videos. Kept in contact with me throughout her walks. 100% recommend and I can’t wait to book her again in the future.”
About: Animals have always been a central part of my life, as I grew up in a pet-loving household where we cared for everything from hamsters and turtles to multiple dogs, guinea pigs, ferrets, and even fish. I’ve also volunteered both formally and informally with local SPCA chapters and animal shelters from a young age, helping to walk, feed, and care for dogs of a variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I have hands on experience with dogs who need extra attention and medical care. I've raised two dogs from puppyhood—my current dog, Sophia, and a pit bull my family had previously—and have done everything from potty training to leash work and daily routines. Sophia is diabetic and blind, so I’m no stranger to giving insulin shots, monitoring glucose levels, and understanding how to be patient and calm with pets who have special needs or anxiety. Whether it's caring for seniors, puppies, or pets with health conditions, I always aim to treat them like family because that’s exactly what they are. I am currently on break from school at the University of Delaware, so my schedule is pretty flexible. Preferably, I am available after 10:00 AM and before 8:00 PM. For overnights, I will stay with your pet for 12 hours (start/end depends on animals schedule) and do one drop in during the mid day. Reach out to me for additional care options (constant care, additional visits, etc.)! When I care for pets through walks or drop-in visits, I approach each home and animal with respect, patience, and awareness. I know every pet has their own personality, boundaries, and needs, so I'll never assume anything upon first meeting. I take time to observe their behavior, let them come to me at their own pace, and make sure we’re both comfortable before jumping into getting close and personal. This also helps me gauge what kind of interaction they’re ready for and to prioritize safety—for your pet and for myself—by staying alert to their body language, keeping a calm energy, and never rushing trust. I will follow any specific instructions you give closely, especially if your pet has particular sensitivities or routines. I also take practical steps on walks, like avoiding overly stimulating routes or unknown dogs, and I’m always careful with things like leashing, doors, or feeding to avoid stress or accidents. I recently earned a certificate from the American Red Cross in Pet CPR and First Aid, so I am prepared even for the worst situations (which I hope I never will have to be 😅).
“Nathan & Meredith are amazing! From arranging meet & greet, communications through app, and the thoughtful notes after every walk, they are really caring to your pets. My dog enjoys spending time with them so much!”
“Heather is amazing! So trustworthy and loyal to my little guy while I was away. It gave me so much ease and I could tell with all the pictures how much he loved her! 10/10 would absolutely use her again and recommend!”
About: I grew up with both cats and dogs and have been caring for both for years. I’ve always been an avid animal lover, so Rover just felt like a natural fit. I find that I connect well with most animals I meet and am a go-to option for many of my friends and loved ones who travel and need a pet sitter. I am patient, compassionate, and gentle and will do everything I can to make your pet feel loved and happy while you’re away! You and your pet can expect long walks and time in parks and outdoors, plenty of time spent playing fetch or with toys, and all the love and affection they need. I promise to treat your pet as if they were my own!
About: Hi! My name is Joelle and I live and work in Wilmington, DE. My partner and I currently have four cats and a beagle/corgi mix! I’ve been pet-sitting dogs and cats for family, friends, neighbors and Rover clients for over 14 years and can’t imagine doing anything else with my free time! I am able to care for and have previous experience with up to 6 animals at a time. I'm currently offering drop-in care and dog walking services, with very limited availability for house sitting. References are available for anyone that is interested and I’d be happy to discuss making adjustments to the services/schedules I have listed if they don't match you or your pet’s specific needs. I work full-time and have a pretty flexible hybrid schedule. Most of my weeks are 3 days in the office and 2 days working from home and these days can be moved around as needed - especially to accommodate house sitting requests! While my work from home days change from week to week, I usually try to work from home on Thursdays and Fridays. For Mondays-Wednesdays when I am in the office I typically have the following availability (with some flexibility): Before 8:00am 12:00-1:00pm After 4:00pm If you feel like I would be a good fit for you and your pets but aren't sure if the schedules would line up well, please reach out! I am happy to switch my in-the-office days with work-from-home days if needed :) My goal while your pet is in my care is to create a relaxing and stress-free environment for them. I prefer to care for animals in their own home so that they are in an environment they are familiar with while also being surrounded by their favorite toys/things. I’m also big on routine and positive reinforcement! In my opinion, following the same routine as normal helps reduce stress on your pet while you’re away and I’m more than happy to recreate those routines for them.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for many years and trained our beautiful lab from six months old by attending regular sessions which I really enjoyed. I am used to administering medications if needed and would love to look after your fur baby! I’m a stay at home Mom of two so while the children are at school mon- fri I am available & also available on weekends! I look forward to feeding, playing and giving your fur baby lots of fuss as well as walks. I am happy to help with crate training too if needed.
About: Through out my life I have owned two senior dogs who required extra love and attention. I have trained and worked with puppies as well. I am currently available weekdays at anytime throughout the day. I can do morning or evenings. I can not wait to play with your dogs! I have experience watching fur babies in clients homes. I can help in anyway that you need whether it’s medicine, walks, playtime, or nap time.
About: Hi, I’m Gina! I’ve been caring for animals most of my life — from cats and dogs to bunnies, birds, and even the occasional reptile. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I meet them where they are with patience, love, and attention to detail. I understand that every animal has a unique personality and routine, and I take pride in creating a safe, stress-free experience while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, walks, medications, or just keeping them company, your pet will be in kind, capable hands. I work remotely most of the time, so I’m available throughout the day on both weekdays and weekends. Your pet will have plenty of company, and even when I do step out, it's never for more than a few hours at a time. I’m also available for early morning and evening care to fit your pets routine. I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect and care. I follow detailed instructions closely to keep routines consistent—whether that’s meal schedules, medications, playtime, or crate training. I make sure pets feel secure and supported while you’re away, and I keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you have peace of mind.
“Jamie was amazing! I really appreciate the love and care he showed my little guy. I would definitely book him again 100 times over. I also appreciate him taking in my package that I had completely forgotten about. I also want to say thank you for alerting me to some concerns he had with Charli itching and not using the bathroom as normal. Once again, I appreciate the time and care that you took with Charli and the fact that you treated him like your own. I look forward to working with you again”
About: I’ve always loved dogs , but I don’t have one of my own! That’s why I love dog sitting! I’ve been dog sitting for numerous years with many different breeds! I used to dog sit for a family that had 3 dogs- 2 Australian shepherd mixes, and a Chihuahua. Another family who has 2 labs & a different family who has an English bulldog. I’m looking to add more to my list ! I’m currently a summer nanny so I have flexible availability during the week and completely open on the weekends! I can not offer availability at your house 24/7 but I can do frequent check ups and drop ins. I don’t offer in home services, but I follow all rules the client has to offer! I prefer when a client leaves written instructions so I can look back whenever needed.
“Jennifer is the absolute best! I cannot recommend her enough. Her love for our dogs makes me feel completely safe and comfortable leaving them in her care. Her kind and sweet personality is an added bonus!”

She is very responsible for her dog taking her to the vet and making sure she gets her insulin twice a day. Rhiannon has a way with dogs that I have never seen.

She has taken great care of all my animals (dogs and cats) and has been very receptive to my instructions, sends updates and photos, and is super communicative during the entire time I’m out. I typically have her stay at my home since my dog specifically has some anxiety so she also goes the extra mile by keeping an eye on my house. She’s great with my adult rescue who’s still learning his manners as she continues his training even while I’m gone! She’s comfortable with him jumping, barking, and playing rough as he’s still learning. He also has extensive health issues and administers his medication and keeps an extra eye on him. I fully trust Joelle to watch my fur babies and they love every time she comes over.”

We would highly recommend her for you fur babies.”
