“I was a little nervous at first since this was my very first time using the Rover app, but those worries disappeared almost immediately. Gabbi took excellent care of our two dogs and cat while we were on vacation. The regular updates and photos were such a relief and more than I expected! Seeing the boys play, relax, and genuinely enjoy their time made all the difference. It was clear they were cared for with real attention and love. Gabbi, thank you truly for giving my partner and I peace of mind. Knowing that if we ever need to take a weekend trip or vacation, you have us covered. Five well-earned stars! :)”
“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 was fantastic! She took good care of our dog Tiger during drop in visits. He is very shy and protective at first but soon warmed up to her very quickly, she is a pro! Highly recommended!!”
“Katie is dependable and flexible. She came through and was able to help us out on short notice on a holiday weekend. She takes good pictures of the cats and goes above and beyond!”
“Meg is so wonderful and trustworthy, I am so thankful that she has been able to work Maddie and I into her schedule for recurring visits! Maddie has recently experienced some incontinence and has been wearing diapers at home. Meg has been a God-send for daily visits to let Maddie out and change her diaper. I have total peace of mind that she is there to check in, as well as taking special care to keep my cats inside when Maddie goes in and out. I highly recommend her for your fur babies!!”
“Hannah did an amazing job taking care of my bunny boy! We did a meet and greet a few days prior to my leaving date, and she was very excited and happy to watch my bunny boy! Both of us got along great. Hannah is very good with communicating to me anything about my bunny boy. Loved the pictures she took and the comments she left! Will be booking with Hannah in the future!”
About: I have had a dog since I was 10 years old. I have a passion for shelter dogs and have adopted all four I've cared for humane societies! My soul dog passed last year and I have experience and a gentle approach for your senior dog. We also rescued a puppy this year and have patience and skills with their energy! Pups of all ages, sizes, genders and behaviors deserve love! I have a flexible, fully remote job Monday-Friday! This allows me to drop in when it's best for you and your dog, or even spend a few hours with them for company :) I am happy to follow any instructions and wishes you have for your dog and home! Walks, playtime, feeding? No problem. We also have a dog who received medication daily and am comfortable administering if needed!
“Mallory has great availability and she is very punctual! She also took great pictures for their report cards after her visit, and follows instructions given perfectly! I would 100% book her over and over :)”

I am free every night and happy to travel wherever needed!! I love to spend some nice quality time with your animal!! I’m happy to sit and knit or go on as many walks as needed! I love to meet new people and of course their fur babies!! I am happy to provide a safe space for each animal to live and play!!
“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!”
“Martina was such a caring and nurturing being. She respected my house hold and my belongs, but most importantly she took well care of my pet. Tank is a lover and she def treated him with plenty of it. She followed directions, texted and called when she had questions, and locked up once she departed. I would recommend anyone else to get her to watch or drop in on your pet! Thank you again Martina??”

“Kaitlynn always did such a great job with my 2 cats. They can be shy but they warmed right up to Kaitlynn, who was able to capture several great pictures that I thoroughly enjoyed. If I still lived anywhere close to Memphis, I'd choose Kaitlynn again!”

About: I’ve participated in taking care of animals since I was 5, and took on full responsibility since 11-12. My home has always been full of animals (mostly consisting of cats and dogs) and at most had 11! Usually it’s a pretty 50/50 split between the two. We’ve always rescued animals so they come to me in any shape or form, many kittens / puppies and many seniors! I would love to come by and see your fur babies! Sunrise to sunset, my schedule is very open to coming by and saying hello to any fur baby! I currently can’t work, so what better way to spend my time! Anything the client requests! I’m unable to host any animal visits, but I’m very open to traveling. The care will consist of any basic activities I’m needed to do, feeding, cleaning up any accidents in the home, managing the animals crate, playing with them and getting their energy out for a nice sleep afterwards, and anything else needed!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Christiana
Emilee was amazing with our two girls! We had her do drop-ins 3x/day for a week while on vacation, and she did great! Always sent photos and updates and spent time hanging out and snuggling with them. We had no doubt they were being well cared for by Emilee, and we will definitely use her in the future. Couldn't ask for a better experience!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Christiana on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,556 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Christiana. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Christiana 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.
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Christiana. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
