“Sadie had such a great time staying with Laura. She is very skeptical about new environments; however, she was very comfortable and showed no signs of stress. I will be asking Laura to watch Sadie again in the future.”
“Patricia was great with our 1 year old dog who can be a little shy and difficult. Patricia took great care of her and was very attuned to her needs. Highly recommend Patricia! We'll be booking with her again.”
“Rita was great! Quick responses, frequent updates and our dog Maple and cat Olive loved her (boarded our dog and had drop-in for our cat). Olive is usually fine when we are away but it was our first long trip away from Maple and she came home happy and healthy. I would use Rita’s services again, no problem”
“Yvonne helped us out in a pinch to find a pet sitter last minute. We are so thankful she was so flexible and took great care of our pup. Our dog Sadie loves making new friends so she was very excited to stay at a house with another dog. Sadie loved playing with Yvonne’s dog Quincy and Yvonne kept us updated with lots of photos throughout the day so we could see how she was doing. We highly recommend - our dog had a great time and Yvonne is a wonderful sitter!”
“Jill and Thomas took amazing care of our boy Boo while we were on vacation. They we communicative and we loved seeing the little videos and photos they shared. They are our new go-to sitters!”
“Wonderful family, incredibly thorough — asked all the right questions and wanted every detail about my dog. Communication was excellent, and Stephanie’s photos were genuinely artistic. My dog looked so happy in every one. Fenced in back yard so my dog had with plenty of chances to play. At pickup she didn’t want to leave and tried to drag me back inside. Never seen that in my years using Rover. Highly recommend.”
“Veruchka was nice enough to do a last minute booking. When I picked Cardi up she was very happy. I could tell she must of been playing a lot. Also got a lot of pics of Cardi. She has an adorable 3 year old that Cardi seemed to really have fun with. Will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Amber was absolutely wonderful with Nala! She took such great care of her, and Nala had the best time playing and getting lots of love. You can tell Amber really knows how to make dogs feel at home. We would definitely book with her again without hesitation. Highly recommend!”
“I was hesitant to leave my dogs with a sitter again since the the last ones dog attacked mine. However kaycie has restored my confidence in rover. You can see she is a person that loves dogs and so is her husband. Her golden retriever is also adorable. My dogs were quite happy there and I didn't have to worry.”
“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.”
“Elise and Daniel are beyonnddd amazing!! I’m so incredibly grateful to have found them….they were so easy to work with and so flexible with me…..their home is very warm and homey, the kind where everyone feels at home….They took such great care of my chihuahua….I was visiting for an event and staying downtown, it was very close by and I wish that I could use them full time but I live out of state….thank you so much Elise, Daniel and Eli for taking such amazing care of Waffles….im so grateful and I loved meeting you 🤗🙏”
“Pooja was absolutely wonderful with Bentley! From the very beginning, I was impressed by how thorough she was during our meet and greet. She asked all the right questions about Bentley's routine, personality, feeding schedule, preferences, and any special needs, which immediately gave me confidence that she truly cares about the dogs she watches. Throughout his stay, she kept me updated, communicated well, and sent photos that helped me feel completely at ease while I was away. Bentley can be energetic and very attached to his people, but Pooja was patient, attentive, and loving with him. It was clear that she took the time to make him feel comfortable and treated him like one of her own. Coming home to a happy, well-cared-for pup is the best feeling, and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend Pooja to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, knowledgeable, communicative, and genuinely wonderful with dogs!”
“Kendra took great care of our pup Jax. She was attentive to his needs & kept us informed of how he was doing throughout his entire stay, making sure to send lots of photos! She is also very sweet, caring, and responds very quickly. Definitely recommend!”
“Rackeem was awesome with my dogs while I was on vacation! He took excellent care of my fur babies and I highly recommend him! He provides daily updates and pictures so you can be assured your pets are safe and doing well while in his care. He's also a great trainer as well! He helped my very active 14 month old pup 🐶 stop pulling so much while on our walks.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Christiana
Our pup loved her stay with Latoya, definitely felt right at home from the start! Latoya did a great job with communication and sent us pictures that showed our little fur babe enjoying herself and being at ease in good company! Latoya was able to administer meds as well. Would use Latoya again and definitely recommend!
Laura was great. She took wonderful care of our sometimes difficult pup and he loved being there with her and her pup Eugene. We’re going away for 10 nights soon and Laura is our first choice of sitters. We definitely recommend her to anyone needing a caring, supportive sitter in their home!
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. 😊
Veruchka was nice enough to do a last minute booking. When I picked Cardi up she was very happy. I could tell she must of been playing a lot. Also got a lot of pics of Cardi. She has an adorable 3 year old that Cardi seemed to really have fun with. Will definitely be booking with her again.
Blue had an amazing time! Was taken care of and well loved. Multiple walks and playtime were amazing for him! He was definitely tired after he got back which was so awesome. Nicole made sure to take care of him in an extremely professional manner. Would definitely recommend Nicole and be using her in the future

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Christiana home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Christiana.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Christiana sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
