“Knowing Carrie is with my fury boy allows me to enjoy myself. This was the third time I’ve used Carrie. I know Jesse Lee is well cared for - I don’t think he had any separation anxiety. Thank you Carrie - Jesse loves you!”
About: I have been providing pet sitting services for at least 15 years now for our various personal family friends and others. I love animals and have had pets my whole life. They are my fur babies, and yours will be treated the same! I am a recently retired mom and grandma who has two fur babies. I can provide my own transportation, and I’m available all throughout the day for various times as needed. I would be happy to help you with your fur baby needs. I plan to provide pet care in my client’s home and keep to the same schedule they are used to. It is my goal to make sure they are comfortable and safe before I leave from the visit.
“Elaina was wonderful! Great communicator and followed my instructions perfectly. I love that she went the extra mile by bringing in my packages from the porch. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Madde was great! She exceeded our expectations. She made our time away from home comfortable knowing our pets were well cared for. She communicated with us after every visit with both words, pics and videos. She was delightful. We highly recommend her for anyone needing in home pet care.”
“Karlina is absolutely wonderful! Our two older cats need a little extra love (and medication) and she took the best care of them while we were gone! She’s so thorough and kind. We felt so comfortable knowing that she was taking care of them!”
“The BEST!! I’ve had a few sitters since Cathy changed availability, and no one compares to her! She cares—she treats the pups as if they were her own and gives the owners a comfort of knowing their fur babies are in good hands!! Wish she was available full time to just be our puppy sitter!! :)”
“Emily is always my go-to sitter to drop in on my pup! She is extremely responsive and responds to booking requests within minutes. She is friendly and I know my dog loves her. She sends great updates and is extremely reliable.”
“We really couldn’t have asked for better care for Timber and Tucker while we were out of town. Molly went above and beyond and we are extremely grateful for the love she showed our boys.”
“Marissa, helped me in a pinch with a last-minute request for drop-in visits with my cat when I left town. She also agreed to an extra day when I decided to extend my trip. She communicated well with me before and during. I will definitely use her services again!”
“Jacqueline has been so great to work with. She stopped by for a meet and greet with our pups before scheduling her for weekly drop-ins. Jacqueline has been professional, responds quickly, and makes our pups feel comfortable. We're so happy to continue using Jacqueline in the future!”
“This was our first time using River and Brittany made it a wonderful experience. Surprisingly, she was able to get pictures of our kitties which was a surprise, plus one of the more skittish ones almost let her pet her. I would definitely request her again.”
“Emaline is beyond great! This was my first time using the app and she was so helpful to explain everything. She was so kind, followed all requests, sent pictures and updates. Would 100% recommend!”
“First time using Rover and Rita was the perfect person to stop in and check in on my two cats! She went above and beyond in making sure the cats litter was cleaned, they had plenty of food, play time, and even sweeping up spilled cat food/fur! Rita made sure to send lots of pictures, giving me a peace of mind while away! Definitely plan to keep using Rita as a pet sitter!”
“Ellen did a great job watching our two cats while we were away for a week! She sent me photos and videos every day. She ensured my one temperamental cat was eating as well. She is reliable and detail oriented. We would definitely love to work with her again!”
About: I grew up with cats and became a dog owner 20 years ago. I have trained 2 puppies. I have a lot of time on my hands to care for your pets. I am a teacher and I am gone weekdays 6:15-3:30. I do have a daughter that comes home daily from 10:45-11:30 to let the dogs out. I have one Boston Terrier and he loves to play. I have a fenced in yard and plenty of room to run around. My dog can be crated if needed.
About: I currently work at a Veterinary Hospital as a Veterinary Technician Assistant. This has been my position for the last three years and I am looking to continue my education! Due to this position I am able to give different forms of medications, take care of sick, senior or more care required pets! I am very adamant to make any kind of treatments/care as fear free as possible! I’ve also had my fair share of dogs growing up, big and small. I loved training my childhood German Shepherd Harper and my families current aussiedoodle Griffin. I also frequently would pet sit for family and friends in the past! I currently work full time at a vet clinic and have kitties at home that require care and medications for chronic issues. One of my cats Chyna has Irritable Bowl Disease that is being managed and my other cat Sally has behavioral Pica (Tendency to eat inedible things) that I manage well! I do not work Sunday, Mondays, Tuesdays and a half day on Saturdays. I can be flexible with my schedule but Wednesday thru Friday I typically work 10 hour shifts! On Wednesdays and Fridays I should be available after 6pm, especially if I am staying at a location for in-home care. I am willing to accommodate whatever makes owners feel most comfortable for care. I appreciate any tips for care and have no problem giving your kiddos plenty of attention💕

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Delaware
Amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure my kitties were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. The updates and photos gave me peace of mind and it was obvious she cared. I came home to a happy pet and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!
Cathy is the best pet sitter! My cat Tigger loves her. She is patient and kind. I don’t know what I would do without her! He takes medication and is 16 years old. I needed someone responsible and she is the best! Thank you Cathy! Tigger says”thank you” too.
Emily always does an amazing job, I have no worries knowing she is caring for my cats while I’m away! She goes above and beyond just the cats, also helping care for my house/plants as well. You can tell she actually enjoys spending time with them and helping out!
I could not have asked for a better dog and cat sitter! From start to finish, they were attentive, reliable, and genuinely caring with both of my animals. My pup was walked every single time, and it was clear those walks weren’t rushed—they really took the time to make sure our pup was happy and well cared for. The updates were absolutely amazing—thoughtful, detailed, and reassuring, with plenty of insight into how both animals were doing. It made being away so much easier knowing they were in such good hands. You can tell this Maddie truly loves animals and treats them like their own. I came home to happy, relaxed pets, which says everything. Highly recommend and will absolutely be booking again! 🐶🐱💙
Lydia is a wonderful pet care provider!! This is our second booking with her to care for our two cats, Oliver and Nadia. Recently, Oliver has struggled with IBD and Lydia provided extra care to assure us that Oliver was still on the road to recovery. We highly recommend Lydia for your pet care needs!
I never worry about my cat Tigger when Katelyn takes care of him. She is always so dependable! He is 15 years old and takes medication twice a day for his thyroid. He just loves her! Thank you Katelyn! I don’t know what we would do without you! ❤️. Virginia and Tigger

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Delaware on Rover is $19.7 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,198 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Delaware. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Delaware. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
