“Mr. Max our very curious but needy cat enjoyed his stay with Elke. It is clear Max had plenty of attention, affection, and all the naps he likes. We appreciated the pictures, videos and updates. Elke has a great house for pets; plenty of space to roam. We will gladly use her again.”
“Thank you Cece for always being so welcoming and providing daily updates of my baby! Highly recommend this puppy sitter to anyone looking for someone who truly loves pets and takes good care of them. 10/10!”
“We were so happy with our experience of leaving our beloved Aussie, Emma with Terri over a one week vacation. She is a dog trainer and very skilled and knowledgeable about all aspects of dogs, their behaviors and their needs. Her venue is perfect for exercising and her attention to detail really impressed us. Daily photos and updates kept us at ease as Emma is definitely our furry child. I would wholeheartedly recommend Terri to anyone and look forward to working with her in the future. Emma truly enjoyed her vacation as much as we did!!”
“She’s so amazing! Treating my pup like her own , received lots of pictures and gave me peace of mind that my needy little friend was in the best place possible. Will definitely book with her again ??”
“My sitter canceled last minute on my way out of town. Claudia took great care of my baby no complications with it being last minute. The older sitter doesn’t have to worry about canceling i delete the number and replace it with Claudia. If I could I would give her 10 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Joshua took amazing care of our dog Mya while we were away. From the start, they were super responsive and made sure to accommodate everything we needed. During Mya’s stay, Joshua kept us in the loop with regular updates and cute photos, which really put our minds at ease knowing she was doing well. Plus, when our plans changed last minute, they were totally flexible and made everything stress-free for us. We’ll definitely be reaching out to them again next time we need a sitter!”
“Dzeni and Kathy were absolutely wonderful with Bailey! From the start, their communication was clear and consistent, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. They were very attentive to Bailey’s needs, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made sure she was comfortable and happy the whole time. It was clear that they treated her with genuine care and affection, just like family. We came home to a relaxed and well-cared-for pup, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, kind, and professional pet sitters!”

Angie came highly recommended to me by a family member & I’m so glad I decided to go with Angie. Not only was she able to accommodate my last minute booking request, her communication was top notch. She cared for my boys as if they were her own & kept me in the loop throughout their stay with her. I highly recommend Angie if you need pet care.
Sabrina is the best! Her communication is top tier and she knows how to handle my pups. I have one who is a bit anxious/nervous. She took her time with him and created an environment for him to feel comfortable and loved. I don’t have to worry when I leave my dogs with her. Book her!!
Terri was wonderful! This was my first time boarding and I was so nervous to leave my furbaby for a week but Terri helped ease my nerves by sending me pics throughout my trip. She took great care of him and her facility was well maintained and setup properly for boarding. I will definitely book with her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
There are 3,046 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Dover. About 92% of Dover sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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 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.
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 .
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 FL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
