“We are so pleased with the experience we had with Chelsea. She was great about keeping us informed about how our pups were doing. She texted us and sent us pictures every day while we were out of town. We would definitely recommend Chelsea for anyone looking for someone to care for their pups.”
“Graceanna was so great with my anxious dachshund! I just moved to Rehoboth beach and my dog was having pretty bad separation anxiety. Graceanna saved the day with a last minute pet sit and I came home to a happy doggie!”
“Samantha did an excellant job dog sitting for Lily. Lily doesn't take to everyone but she took to Samantha. She kept in touch and sent pictures. We'll sure use Samantha again to stay at our home with Lily!”
“Gina was very warm and professional with my two pitties! She sent photos and updates during the night and allowed me to have complete peace of mind about leaving thej behind. Our new Dogsitter!”
“This was the first time we've ever left our shih Tzu, Olivia, with anyone. I found Kasey online at Rover.com and it only took one interview to know that she was the one I wanted. Kasey stayed our house for two days and took the most incredible care of Livvy. She was loving and very professional. We will definitely contact her the next time we go away. I highly recommend Kasey for your sitting needs.”
“OMG!!! I cannot give enough stars for Nicole! I have a very needy 3 yr old English Bulldog. He’s very high maintenance and requires a lot of attention. She arrived at the meet and greet with treats in her pocket, and they were besties ever since. She kept in touch, sent pics and made sure my place was in perfect condition when I returned!!!”
“Mary was amazing with our high energy pup. She went above and beyond and communicated with us frequently. I’ve never felt more comfortable with a sitter (very anxious mama here). We will definitely be using her again!!”
“Jessie was marvelous - incredible communicative and responsible. We have two large pups who have some behavioral quirks, & Jessie cared for them like a champ. I highly recommend her!!”
About: If you need an overnight sitter, a walker, or just a play date for a couple hours, I’m your girl! I started pet sitting for a family I used to nanny for about 10 years ago and love caring for our families dogs. My husband and I got our own fur baby 3 years ago, a 100lb Chesapeake Bay Retriever, named Buoy. I make sure that every house I leave looks the same as it did when I enter, that includes making sure trash is taken out and dishes are out of the sink! I’ve dog sat pups from 8 weeks to 13 years and from the size of a teacup poodle to a 100 pound boxer, and I treat every one like my own. I also am very familiar with cats, my brother has 2, I love them just the same! I am currently working from home full time, so I have plenty of afternoon and evening flexibility as well as weekends! My times for during the week would be before 8am, between 12-2pm, and anytime after 5pm. I am currently in a 3 bedroom apartment, with my husband and our dog. We would be more than happy to allow any fur baby into our place. Our community is so pet friendly. Our dog has been living in an apartment since we got him and he has been leash trained, so I have plenty of experience with dogs on leashes including prong collars, gentle leaders, and any type of leash.
“Ryan was very responsive, and provided regular updates on our pets while we were away. He also went the extra mile and took out our trash and left the house cleaner than when we left.”
“Sarah, was great! She pet sat my anxious little doxie on very short notice! Dukie said she was calming and super fun. He was super happy when I came home. He even and followed her to the car ! Strong reco for Sarah A!”
“Kailee did an awesome job taking care of my Pomeranian and cat while I was away and went above and beyond in every way. She was punctual and communicative, very professional but warm and friendly. My dog, who is honestly an anxious handful, was immediately at ease and had a great weekend. I returned home to a sparkling house, and two happy, sleepy and calm animals. I am so impressed and I would absolutely recommend Kailee for anyone looking for a patient, reliable sitter/ house sitter.”

I’m a high school in college referee very fit. I officiate games between 3 and 5 PM. That’s the only gap! I need to stay in shape and I’d rather stay in shape with my furry friends!

“It was a pleasure to have Cori B stay in our home with Ferguson & Julie. I have no hesitation in describing her as highly reliable, responsible and conscientious. Pups loved her and it was a huge relief for us knowing she was there.”
About: I have worked with Pick Your Paw rescue, work with boarding kennels, and have been dog sitting for years. I can do basic training, and do constant research on every thing dog related Going in to college, I am available for most days, but my schedule can change at a dime due to other work and extracurricular obligations. For now, any time after 12:30 is fine, but Fridays are typically the busiest. I’ll center everything around your pets to make sure they feel safe and comfortable, and have enough knowledge and experience to sense a dog’s body language. I know that this is their space and I will respect that, so I’ll give plenty of time until your pet warms up to me. I care so much about all animals and want to build a bond.

Lochwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Ann is a gem. I was so happy with her care for my dogs (3 Yorkies) and her willingness to spend time and showing love to them. She also made an effort to walk them. She sent photos and informed us of any needs or needs or information requested by me. She was honest and knowledgeable about dogs and willing to help give them their medication as well. I felt they were safe and cared for. Ann kept my home in order as well while staying overnight. I will definitely use Ann again the watch my babies
