About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats ever since I was 14-years-old. I was an active volunteer at Humane Animal Partners in Rehoboth Beach and have helped organize multiple donation drives for the SPCA. I’ve had pets my entire life. I have 4 years experience caring for dogs and cats in Lewes, Rehoboth Beach, Harbeson, and Milford. I work a hybrid job that is really flexible in days and times. I can work any pet care demands into my schedule. If I am not working from home, I am on the roads, making drop ins and walking throughout the day no problem. I love to give your animals as much care and attention they need. Whether it’s walks or play time, I’m available for whatever your animals require.

About: I have had a dog my entire life and have consistently cared for my neighbors pets as well! Alongside this I have also fostered a number of puppies while they were in search for a home as well as volunteered with my local animal shelter a number of times. I always ensure that every animal gets the best care! As a student at CU Boulder I do have classes 5 days a week, but other than those periods that I will be at class my schedule is super flexible! While I do not have any animals in Boulder, I do have a dog and cat at home which I am always attentive to. I take my dog on at least 2 walks a day and make sure that he gets all his energy out before night so we can both sleep well!

About: Excited to meet your pet! Experienced with seniors to puppies! Reliable, professional & local. I love playtime & happy to visit dog parks (if you like). This is now my full time job! My days are built around walks and i am flexible, local and reachable. I keep my calendar current and don't take bookings I cannot make. I do a meet & greet before every visit so we can align on your pups needs. You will get a note from me after each visit so you know how everything went. You will also get photos and I am happy to hear from you as well.

About: I’ve taken care of my baby- Foxey for all 12 of her years. I also regularly take care of a large dog, a cat and a puppy weekly. I have experience with both big and small dogs, although mostly ones on the smaller side and am no stranger to administering medication. I also once housed a leopard gecko, so I’m open to other animals as well! I work in the early mornings, no longer than 5 hours typically. I have classes some days of the week but I’m generally pretty flexible. I’ve been successful in balancing taking care of pets and my own schedule. I do need Monday nights off as I’m a nanny those nights, but other than that I’m pretty free. I love to pet and snuggle them if they are bed bugs, and I’m also cool to just chill and walk them if they are more of a reserved dog. My dog is very nervous and reserved to anyone else but me so I get it lol

About: I have grown up with dogs and adore them. I have signed up with rover.com to offer dog walking and pet sitting on a part time basis after work and on the weekends. In the past, I have volunteered at BARCS as a dog walker and have helped family members & friends with their dogs while they were on vacation. I enjoy dog walking and giving dogs TLC by cuddling or playing by throwing a ball around or tug of war. Most of my experiece has been with small and medium dogs of different breeds, however, I mostly walked large dogs at BARCS so I can help with large dogs as long as they are well behaved on a leash. Psychology background helps with understanding behavior. This background includes extensive work with college students that have documented disabilities. Patient and physically active throughout the year. Why I love dog sitting * This is an update to the profile information listed below. I adopted a Senior Boston Terrier 4 ago so I took a break from Rover.com. She is older now so it is a good time to get back on rover part time until my schedule changes. I have been a dog lover since I was a baby. My mom told me I used to chase the dogs in my baby walker. My immediate family owned small dogs and the rest of my family owned medium and large dogs. Some of the breeds that I had with my family were pugs and a Pekingese. I have taken care of Cocker spaniels, Yorkshire terriers, German Shepard and black labs who were owned by friends/family. When I volunteered at BARCS, I walked dogs that were mostly pit bulls, rotties and mixed breeds (usually pit bull mixes). My experience administering medication I have experience with routine items like giving heart worm pills and flea & tick spray/lotion, as well as some experience with ear infection medication. I am not opposed to administering medication it if the owner is willing to provide training and if the dog is comfortable with me. I work full time. I’m available on a part time basis in the evenings during the week and on the weekends. If I’m off from work, I’m happy to help as well. I treat other peoples dogs like family. I don’t offer dog boarding in my home because my work schedule doesn’t permit it. But, if I’m house sitting at another persons home, I’ll make sure I’m following the instructions/routine from the pet owner, give the dog/s plenty of TLC, playtime and food. I’ll also make sure the dogs are secure in their owners home, and keep the place tidy.

About: Taking care of animals has always come very naturally to me! As a child I liked to run around the farm I lived on searching for kittens and petting horses. As someone who has loved and nurtured many of my own pets over the years, I naturally gravitated towards taking care of others beloved fur children. I have knowledge of different diets and have had both cats and dogs on raw diets as well as standard diets. I also have experience with senior animals, and their special needs. I started out helping friends or parents of friends when they would travel and have now found myself offering services to others and growing my business. I absolutely love pet sitting and helping families feel comfortable as they travel or are at work for the day. When I am at your home I make sure to not only nurture and love on your pets but to take care of your space. I offer daily updates if preferred and collect mail, keep things tidy, etc. I am able to give some medicine if required and enjoy the company of all ages of animals. I have experience mostly with cats and dogs but am open to taking care of smaller critters too. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a meet and greet! I offer pet sitting at your home Monday-Sunday with a flexible schedule. I am available for drop ins and overnight stays. My main focus is pet sitting. When staying with your pet or even just dropping in, I can feed, play, crate, or give some meds to your pet if necessary. I am able to take walks or run around for a bit in the back yard. My goal is to always make the pet and the owner feel as comfortable as possible while maintaining a normal routine where necessary. I ask that owners leave detailed instructions so I can accommodate your animals as best as possible. I also request that any cameras in the home be notified to myself before I stay and I like to be clear that my partner may sometimes stay with me for overnights.

About: Hi! I'm Lily, an experienced pet lover with a flexible schedule and a background in hospitality, customer service, and social media. After spending the past several months traveling, I'm back in Delaware and excited to spend my time caring for pets while helping owners feel completely at ease when they're away. I've cared for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I understand that every pet has their own routine and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to a familiar schedule, I'm happy to provide personalized care and attention. I’m flexible and able to work around your pet’s routine. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening care, including walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays when needed. I can also accommodate last-minute bookings whenever possible. Your pet's safety and comfort always come first. I provide reliable care, follow routines closely, and send regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I'll treat your pet and home with the same care and respect as my own.

About: I’ve been around and owned pets my entire life, and know how important it is to have someone you can rely on while you’re away. I have experience with puppies and kittens as well as elderly animals. I am reliable and communicative, and I will always prioritize the health and happiness of your pet. I work full time (8-5) currently while taking pre-requisite classes for nursing school, so my availability is mainly in the evenings and on weekends. I’m available for evening visits and walks, and I can also do overnights on the weekends. Midday visits or lunch walks may be possible on some days, but my daytime schedule can vary, so those would just need to be planned in advance! I care for pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable and able to stick to their normal routine. I follow instructions closely and make sure they get attention, companionship and a calm presence while you’re away. When house sitting, I keep the home tidy and secure - my goal is to reduce stress for both pets and owners.

“Jacob did an outstanding job caring for our rabbit, Bunny, while we were away. He was incredibly communicative, responded quickly to every message, and always arrived on time, staying for the full visit. He had no trouble giving Bunny her medication, sent thoughtful updates and great photos after each visit, and made us feel completely at ease. We also came home to everything spotless and exactly as we had left it, which we really appreciated. We wouldn't hesitate to book Jacob again and will absolutely be asking him to watch Bunny the next time we travel!”

About: Hi there! I’m Else, a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and needs. I grew up surrounded by Golden Retrievers, senior cats, and adopted pups—including my sweet golden girl Ember (7), my senior tabby Bert (14), and a tiny blind, deaf rescue dog. Though they’re now with my family up north in Delaware, I miss them every day and would love to share that care with your furry family here in Mount Pleasant. Whether your pet is high-energy, elderly, has special needs, or just needs a little extra TLC, I’m here to help. I’m a recent post-grad looking to earn extra income doing what I genuinely love—spending time with animals. Let’s chat—I’d love to meet your pet! I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available most mornings and afternoons during the week, and I’m fully open on weekends/getaways. I only care for pets in their own home, where they feel most safe and comfortable. I follow your care instructions closely and always prioritize your pet’s well-being. If your dog is car-friendly, I’m happy to take them for walks in your neighborhood or even on fun outings to the beach (with your permission and permits, of course!).

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Lewes on Rover is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $37 per visit. 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 242 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lewes. 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 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 Meet & Greet .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lewes. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
