Dog Sitting in Magnolia

“Delaney was wonderful. It made me feel better knowing they could stop in to care for my dog when I had a last minute work event come up. They sent great pictures and were very communicative. And put up with all my information as a nervous owner.”

“Not only do I love Rover, I loved having Rachel take care of my boys while I am out of town. She is kind, loving, and the cats love her! I'll be using her again to put my mind at ease while I'm away.”

About: I have cared for cats for most of my life but 5 years ago my fiancé and I adopted my first dog. For the past 5 years, I’ve cared for my dog, Mary Jane, who has been my sweetest teacher in understanding dog behavior, routines, and communication. Through caring for her, I’ve gained hands-on experience with daily walking, feeding schedules, basic training reinforcement, administering simple medications, and creating a calm, consistent environment for a happy pup. I have also cared for many friends pets while they were away on vacation. I may be new to Rover, but I’m not new to being a responsible, attentive animal owner. Caring for animals is already woven into my daily rhythm. I work part-time with flexible hours, giving me plenty of space in my schedule for peaceful walks, playtime, and check-ins with pets. I’m used to creating a balanced routine around my own dog, and bringing that same calm, attentive energy to other pets feels completely natural. I am currently free to sit/walk any day of the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and familiar environment for them. I follow your routines exactly as you outline them — from feeding instructions to walk times to any training cues your dog is used to. I keep doors and gates secured, monitor their body language closely, and make sure they always have fresh water and a comfortable space to relax. Trust is extremely important to me, so I communicate clearly, send updates/photos, and treat your home with the same respect and care I treat your pet.

About: Hello! I’m Erin, a full-time high school teacher and pet-sitter on the side. I’m an animal lover and I have been pet sitting for 10+ years. I have a ton of experience caring for a variety of dog breeds and cats, as well as a few smaller animals (rabbits, hamsters, birds, and fish). I’m calm, caring, and patient, with a soft spot for senior animals. I’ve had a great deal of experience caring for my own senior pets (both dogs and cats). I’ve provided care for animals with diapers, medication, and mild mobility issues. I’m also experienced in caring for diabetic cats and administering insulin, as I’ve helped two of my rescues go into remission. I strive to provide the best care possible for pets, and peace of mind for their owners! Please be aware that starting August 25th, I will be at work from 7:35 am-3:05 pm. I’m currently a full time as a high school teacher, so from 7:35-3:05 on week days, I’m usually at work. If I am pet sitting during the week, I head straight to the pets at the end of the work day. On weekends, I am able to dedicate most, if not all, of the day to spending time with your pets. This is also the case over the summer. I provide pet care in client’s homes, per the directions provided by the clients. Prior to caring for your pet(s), I ask that we arrange a time for me to meet your pet(s) and go over all pertinent information regarding their care and safety.

“Olga was great! Very responsive and flexible. She sent lots of pictures of our cat while they were playing. We will definitely use her again!”

“Samantha was wonderful with Randy. He ate his food for her which is a big achievement since he is so picky. She sent me pictures of them playing. He loves to play with his toys. I was very pleased with her and would definitely use her again.”

About: My passion for animal care began at age 8 and spans over 13 years of hands-on experience from personal pets as well as from my career. Currently, I work as a veterinary assistant at a general practice clinic, where I assist with routine examinations, diagnostic procedures, and treatment protocols while providing compassionate care to animals and educating pet owners. I am currently enrolled in the Veterinary Technology Program at Delaware Technical Community College, pursuing comprehensive training in animal health, medical procedures, and veterinary science. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine, and I maintain flexible availability to accommodate your pet’s needs. I’m completely free on weekends and available most weekdays after 6pm. As a veterinary assistant, I understand the importance of consistent care and reliable scheduling. Whether your pet needs daily walks, overnight stays, or weekend adventures, I can adapt my schedule to ensure they receive the attention and care they deserve. My veterinary background also means I’m comfortable with any special care requirements or medication schedules your pet may have I provide pet care exclusively in clients’ homes, keeping your pets comfortable in their familiar environment while maintaining their established routines. As a veterinary assistant, I’m trained to recognize health concerns and can handle everything from basic daily care to administering medications or special needs. I follow all specific instructions regarding feeding, exercise, and house rules while ensuring doors and gates stay secure. You’ll receive regular updates with photos about your pet’s activities. I treat your home with complete respect, leaving everything clean and secure. With 13+ years of pet care experience and professional veterinary training, I’m committed to giving you peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I have many years of experience with different breeds and ages of dogs, including pitbulls, Samoyeds, Great Danes, and German shepherds. Larger dogs do not scare me, and I am open to all ages. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to offer services during the day, roughly every four hours. my personal life is quiet enough to allow me to drop in on shorter notice as compared to other sitters possibly. I live in a small studio apartment, so taking care of your pet and your home will be much easier and also keep them more comfortable while you are away. With that said, if you were to leave me strict instructions on what your pet is used to, prefers, and what you would like specifically, I will follow those rules exactly to keep your pets safe and comfortable and give you peace of mind.

“Such peace of mind having Lexie come by our home and take care of our sweet pups! We’re so grateful for her communication. We’ll absolutely contact her again! :)”

“Zackie was great! Thank you so much for taking care of Harper! I was able to go out of town and not worry. She showed up on time every visit which was important for Harper’s meds. I will definitely request her again!!”

About: I love that my career gives me the flexibility to help other pet owners feel at peace that their animal is taken care of while they are away. "Happy to help" is something I frequently say and being able to get in my daily steps with your pets is just an added bonus. I have plenty of time for walks or checking in on your animals. My career gives me the opportunity to have a very flexible schedule to help other pet owners with dog walks or check-ins. Responsibility is key. I understand that it is important to keep your animal safe and healthy by making sure that on walks we are avoiding other dogs, just in case, safely secured on the leash, not walking on hot pavement and plenty of water on hot days out.

“Kelsey did a fine job for us. Dogs liked her and they got their daily walk in. This was our second time working with her. We’d request her again but our schedules aren’t working out this time.”

“Michele was a wonderful find. It was our first experience using Rover and we are so happy we found her. She was very good with our dog who takes a while to warm up to new people. Michele never missed a walk, was always on time and very gentle with our girl. She provided us feedback regularly and treated our dog like her own. We would highly recommend Michele.”

Helen B.

About: I've dog-sat for a number of people, including friends and family. Trained my own dog from a puppy, including a number of tricks! I do have some experience bathing, but my specialty is in company and walks! I go to school full time, and work for a few hours a week in the office. Talking care of and walking your pet would be as beneficial for them, as it is for me! I have gaps in my schedule that would accommodate the typical hours people are working! Although I cannot board pets in my own home, I can take care of pets in the environment around them. I would walk them around town, ensuring that they get the exercise they need, and even taking them to a fenced park, if that is something you feel comfortable with!

“Crissy was a fantastic pro and came through in the last minute for my husband and me. Our dogs immediately warmed up to her and she gave us the confidence we needed to go on vacation knowing our dogs would be well taken care of. She sent lots of videos and photos while we were away to help us enjoy our vacation and see what our dogs were up to. We would highly recommend Crissy.”

About: I have two cats and a dog all adopted from shelters. I treat pets as family members with love, respect, and responsibility. I believe that pets are choosing you to be their family. I ran my own business from home, so I can manage my schedule myself. That gives me more flexibility to take your dog on a walk or come check them in the afternoons. My dog walks in parks and trails, exercising, and playing every day. We do not have a fenced yard. I believe it is important to have quality walk time for the dogs. he also is going along with other dogs very well if that is something that you would prefer to add to your dog care time, I could walk them together.

“Paige does a great job with our two kitties. They are elderly, and one is on thyroid medication. Paige takes great care of them and makes sure that her visits are timed to properly dispense the medication.”
