“Julie was amazing! Our pets were very well care for while we were gone. We came home to a house that was in as good, if not better shape than when we left. She communicated with me any time I requested and in a timely manner. I felt good knowing they were well cared for while we were gone. Oh, she even washed the sheets on the bed she used. Great service for sure!”

I will be on time and make sure your pets and home are very well taken care of during the stay while you are away! I am available throughout the summer months to house and pet sit in the DE beach areas! I love to get up early and enjoy caring for others precious pets. I am always up for a nice walk and enjoy the outdoors and accommodate your pet’s needs while you are away! I will follow your pet’s normal routine and the owner’s expectations. Having your pet in their own natural comfortable environment and knowing your home is being well cared for with the utmost respect will give you peace of mind so you can relax while you are away.
“We can't even begin to describe how amazing Jacqueline took care of our dog while staying at her house! She kept us constantly updated with photos and comments, something that put our minds totally at ease while attending a wedding out of town. She has a beautiful dog of her own and treated our dog as if he, too, was family. Her love for animals is quite apparent. Our boy just absolutely loved her entire family and I know that he will be excited to spend more time with them!”

“Meghan did amazing as always! I have just adopted a new friend from the Humane Society. She is incredibly knowledgeable and was willing to help monitor my two dogs together as they are still new.

“Busara is the best! Maxwell has a great time and is always well cared for! I have no worries when I’m not there because I know Busara is always there to save the day and make sure Maxwell has great company”
About: After raising a puppy to become a guide dog for the blind from 2007 until 2009, I was heartbroken (yet very proud!) when I learned that my black lab had moved past her training and would be going on to help a young blind man. Without a dog in my life, I constantly felt like I was missing a much needed companion. I have since gone on to rescue multiple dogs and cats who I absolutely consider my best friends. When my pets need a sitter, I want to know that the person visiting is someone who will show love and affection to make them feel at ease. I am confident I can provide the same level of care I expect for my pets to your pets as well! I currently work 3 days a week at my full time job but have lots of extra time in the week to spend with your pets! I am a firm believer in doing whatever it takes to put your pets at ease and to help them feel the most comfortable. My dog does not use a crate and roams freely when home alone, but I am open to whatever works best and will follow your lead!
About: I absolutely love animals- both my own and other families pets! I moved to Lewes a few years ago from New Jersey and love being active outside and by the beach. My family and I adopted a dog a few years ago and she has brought so much joy to our family. I am very flexible with my daily schedule and around on most weekends and holidays. I am available mornings, afternoons and evenings as well as overnights. I am good with medications and open to any specific needs your pet might have. My cat and dog both have kidney disease, so I have great experience with both oral and injectable medications.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, both puppies and full grown! I love when I am able to let dogs see the world since they don’t have much time to. I currently am an online student, and work a part time 8-4. I have all of the time in the world for your pet. I am super flexible! I have a big unfenced yard, but have a fenced dog park 2 minutes from me. If your dog needs accommodations I can provide them for you.

Leanne did a great job with Sunny. She was very attentive and got along with Sunny as soon as she met him. Leanne followed all of Sunny’s instructions, sent great pics and was a delight to have as a dog sitter. I would definitely be interested in working with Leanne again. Excellent job!
