“Cassy is the ABSOLUTE best! I can’t say enough good things about her. We have hired her to dog sit and do drop in visits and have been so blessed to have her look after our animals. She always checks in and takes pictures of our dogs and sends them to us when we’re away. She is an excellent communicator and our dogs LOVE her! I would recommend her to anyone looking for help with their animals.”

“Crystal is positively amazing. It felt like a member of our family was caring for our Luna. She sent a multitude of pictures, gave belly rubs and generally made us feel so confident that our old girl was well cared for. Will definitely use her services again.”


About: Hi, my name is Brayden Gress and I’ve taken care of dogs from my family members and friends for about a year. I own my own little yorkie poo named Rosie and she’s a little over a year old! I absolutely love dogs so much and have a passion for taking care of them. I’m a current college student with a lot of free time! I leave for classes around 10:30am and get home around 4pm. I only have classes Monday-Thursday so any time out of these hours I’m free! I treat my little doggy like a princess. I’m currently trying to potty train her in her young age with treats and puppy pads. I love to play with my dog any time I get the chance! Shes a little scared of the outside world so I don’t force her into walks.
About: Need a girl that can take care of your pets? I have 3 cats and 2 dogs, so I would love to take care of your babies! Will send pics for updates :) I’m currently working part time as a medical assistant! And I’m free on Tuesdays and Thursdays anytime, so just let me know what you want specifically for your pet🫶 I have treats if needed, I also have backpacks/carriers if needed. I usually take care of my boyfriends dog and try to let them out to go potty every hour and give them a treat after :)
“Braelyn is absolutely wonderful! We use her every time we go out of town to come and check in on Luna. Luna likes her so much as well. She always greets her at the door and is very happy to see her. We would highly recommend Braelyn to anyone!”


“Allena was perfect with our cats! She followed the feeding instructions we left and sent us photos to put our minds at ease. We wouldn't hesitate to call on her again for future times when we're away!”

About: I've had dogs in my life since I was very young, and caring for them has always been something I genuinely love. Over the past 14+ years, I've cared for dogs of all different sizes, breeds, personalities, and ages. I've had my own mini schnauzer and cared for my husband's greyhound, both of whom I loved dearly into their senior years. I currently have a Shorkie rescue, and I've also cared for my mom's dogs, including a doodle and a chiweenie, as well as my brother's dogs while he and his family were away. I've helped friends with their dogs, too, including taking them for walks and helping with their care when they've been sick or needed an extra hand. What I love most is getting to know each dog's individual personality and figuring out what makes them feel comfortable, happy, and secure. I'm patient, attentive, and enjoy giving dogs plenty of love, playtime, companionship, and attention. I know that every dog has their own routine and needs, and I take that seriously. And while I especially love puppies, I genuinely enjoy dogs at every stage of life. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, loved, and well cared for while they're with me; and for you to have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. I work from home, so my schedule is fairly flexible and I’m able to give your dog plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m most readily available during the week, when I can accommodate walks, drop-ins, and daytime care. Weekends tend to be a little busier with my own little one, so my availability is more limited then. Because I have pets at home, I’m not currently able to provide boarding in my home, but I’m happy to care for your dog in their own home where they can stay comfortable and in their familiar surroundings. When caring for a pet, my priority is always their safety, comfort, and well-being. I take the time to understand each pet's routine, personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions before their owner leaves. Because I don't offer boarding in my own home, I primarily care for pets in their own environment, where they can stay comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I’m respectful of my clients’ homes and treat them with the same care and consideration I would want someone to show my own home. I also believe communication is an important part of trust, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos while you’re away so you know your pet is doing well. Most importantly, I want both the pet and their person to feel comfortable and cared for. I know how much trust it takes to leave your beloved dog in someone else’s hands, and I take that responsibility seriously.
About: With over two decades of experience in canine care, I've cultivated a deep understanding of dog handling and care that empowers me to make a positive impact. Starting as a 10-year-old caring for neighbor's dogs with twice-daily walks, I've consistently demonstrated reliability and dedication. Growing up with Golden Retrievers and now sharing my life with a standard size Goldendoodle named Penny, has not only strengthened my love for animals but also taught my children the value of compassion. My family, including my husband, two children, and I, along with Penny, are committed to providing your dog with constant companionship, attentive care, and a nurturing environment. Having trained dogs in basic commands and upheld the highest standards of pet care, I'm confident in my ability to unlock the full potential of your dog and provide exceptional care. Hi my name is Katie. As a full-time homemaker, my schedule allows for seamless integration of pet care responsibilities. Given my consistent presence at home, managing a routine that includes our current pets - a goldendoodle and a turtle - along with caring for our two children, is quite manageable. Consequently, incorporating additional pets would not significantly impact our existing schedule. I have a spacious yard of nearly an acre, which is not fenced. However, I am happy to walk your dog on a leash if required. My own goldendoodle and two children will ensure your dog has a fun time, and we have a variety of toys available. Additionally, if your dog requires solitude, we can provide a quiet space. During summertime we will have doggy pool available for your pup to cool off in.
“Lisa was a pleasure for us. When I first asked Lisa for taking care of my Cavalier King Charles Madison, she responded very quickly. I am new to Murfreesboro. I didn’t know anyone yet that could take care of my girl. She came over to my house and we had a little meet and great. Madison really liked Lisa. They got along very well. I could tell that she really liked animals. While I was gone she sent me photos of their time together and gave me an update about how Madison was getting along. We had a very good experience with Lisa.”

About: I have been caring for dogs all of my life. I have had my own dogs for over six years now. I’ve been told by friends and family that I’m a great person to care for all types of animals. I’m available most nights during the week and my weekends are almost always available. I’m always willing to keep a flexible schedule to make sure that I can give you the best service for your pet. I have a fenced in backyard and two friendly dogs that will keep your pet company during their stay. I can also crate and provide any additional services needed for your pet.
“Jason was awesome! He made sure that Tank got everything he needed, yet Jason was patient with me during my bereavement at the funeral I attended. First time was a success and I wish nothing for the best for the next client in working with Jason because a he’s sweet,caring,and phenomenal??”
“Taylor was so good with our brand new puppy, she’s only 8 weeks old and so needed lots of pottying and attention and Taylor totally stepped up!! She played so hard that the puppy napped for two hours after she left! She was very knowledgeable about dogs which is helpful as new owners! Would definitely recommend and rebook her!”

About: I’m a first‑time pet sitter but a lifelong pet lover who has cared for my own animals with lots of patience and attention. I follow instructions carefully, keep pets on their routine, and give plenty of playtime and cuddles. I’m reliable, gentle, and always focused on keeping your pet safe, happy, and feeling at home while you’re away. Pet care fits into my routine very easily because I’m currently not working and have a very open schedule. I’m able to be flexible with drop‑in visits and walks, and I have plenty of time to give your pet attention, playtime, and regular potty breaks. I respond quickly to messages and can usually accommodate last‑minute bookings. I live with my family in a calm, smoke‑free home where pets are treated like part of the family. I always follow your instructions carefully for feeding, walks, and medications, and I keep a close eye on pets to make sure they are safe and comfortable. I focus on gentle handling, clean water and spaces, and lots of love so your pet feels secure while you’re away.
“Siba was able to do last minute pet sitting and absolutely nailed it with my cats. She was able to get my shy boys to engage in a lot more play than normal and had them cuddling with her from day one. Will definitely be booking with her again for my boys!!!”

About: I have been around pets all of my life, dogs and cats alike. I have also had my own pets that I’ve taken care of. I have 3 years of experience privately sitting for friends and acquaintances. I strive to follow the pets routine and respect all boundaries your pat may have. I am available after before 8 am and after 6pm on weekdays and most weekends I am available all day. I do not board in my own home as. I have cats who like their space. When I am taking care of pets I always make sure they have a clean environment including food and water bowls. I speak softly and kindly to pet and show them the attention they need or give them space when they need it due to nerves.

About: Growing up we always kept animals in the house, I’ve had at least one pet since I was 6 years old, cats, dogs, fish, frogs, I love them all!! My #1 concern is your pets safety, and their happiness! I’m a very early riser, usually up at about 5-6am every morning, so I can be available for super early walks/potty breaks. I have a very flexible work from home schedule and can leave at any point so I can work around your schedule! I have a hands free leash that I always bring with me. I can use that primarily, or both leashes. Safety is priority! No one expects accidents to happen but I like to be as prepared as possible.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a child and have spent my life around pets. Through years of owning and caring for dogs, I’ve gained experience with feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, basic training reinforcement, and providing daily care and companionship. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I will treat every pet as if they were my own. I work from home so I have plenty of time to play with and care for your pup! My availability is open 7 days a week! I have a dog park in my community. Plenty of time for walks & playtime(indoors and outdoors) I can also crate your baby if needed.
“Once again, Kaylee did an excellent job with our dogs and cats. She kept us updated every day with notes and photos, was proactive in her care, and kept our house tidy. All of our pets seemed super happy to see her in the photos she sent, which tells me that she took great care of them. I highly recommend Kaylee and will be using her services again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Christiana
I can’t say enough about Cassi , she was amazing with my grumpy not stranger loving animals . She made friends with them at the meet and greet and became better friends over the days she came. My fiancé was away on business and I work in Nashville so it was so stress free knowing someone so kind and trust worthy would be in our home loving our furry kids. So glad we found her and will be having her back anytime we require any pet , home sitting of any kind.!

Emilee is the best! She saved the day! I was on vacation in Northern Europe on a cruise and I really needed to find someone responsible and dependable to take care of my babies (Snowy & Chloe). 💕 My neighbor had agreed to watch my girls for the last week of my trip and backed out the day before they were supposed to start! I had limited communication while at sea on my cruise but managed to find Emilee on Rover to watch my girls and she did an awesome job! I received updates daily with pictures of my babies which really took a huge load off my shoulders and allowed me to continue enjoying my vacation! I highly recommend her and would definitely contract her again in the future! 🙏🤗

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Christiana is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $27 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,526 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Christiana. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Christiana. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
