About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 3 years and genuinely love being around animals. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet while you’re away. I’ll treat your fur baby like my own and make sure they’re comfortable, loved, fed, walked, played with, and given plenty of attention. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! 🐾 I currently work part time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet care into my routine. I'm happy to work with your pets normal schedule as much as possible so they can stay comfortable and keep their usual routine while you're away. I'll always follow your instructions and your pets normal routine while caring for them in your home. I'm attentive to their behavior, comfort, and surroundings, and I'll make sure they receive plenty of love and attention while you're away. Im also happy to provide pictures and updates for extra peace of mind!
“We are so grateful for Sherrie and her willingness to help us out last minute! She braved two out of three days walking our dog in the pouring rain, and still managed to make it fun for our rain-disliking girl. Our dog absolutely adored Sherrie from the beginning, which is rare for our dog as she is slightly anxious around new people. Sherrie kept us updated with great communication, which gave us so much peace of mind. She is extremely reliable, caring, and clearly an animal lover. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!”
About: I have had 4 dogs, 1 chessie, 2 huskies and 1wolf-husky hybrid! I don't mind big playful pups but I can also appreciate the gentle lap dog even if he/she is 60 pounds(every dog is a lap dog) I'm just looking to make some extra money doing something I love. I have house(and pet)-sitted for many families in my neighborhood and even have keys to their homes full time because they found me so trustworthy. I love running around the yard, taking long walks and even just sitting around and giving dogs a good pet. I'm not opposed to going to dog parks AT ALL and will honestly probably fall in love with your dog I’m a full-time manager at a restaurant at the beach. However, I love the opportunity to get out and do things that I love in that includes pets. I strive to you insured that all the pets I take care of are comfortable and happy and feel well loved while their owner is away at work or on a trip
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 have three dogs at home! Lucy, Scotch and Sage! I’ve had dogs in my life since I was 8 (and I am now almost 24)! Well I’ve been around dogs since I was born because my grandparents love dogs too but I was 8 years old when my mom bought our first dog. Then after that they just kept coming haha! Everyone knows me as the dog lover because I really do think they are the cutest animals ever! I work from home so I’ll be able to be with the dogs at all times. I won’t ever leave the dog alone for more than two hours. I will always be by the dog and giving it lots of love! Feeding is as instructed and take the dog out every 2-3 hours.
“Chelsea was awesome. 👏 She paid careful attention to Winston and was patient with him as he was a bit reluctant to walk with a new person. She followed all my instructions and took care of our baby. Will use her anytime I need help with Winston in the future.”
About: Hi! I split my time between Greensboro and Rehoboth! Weekends in Rehoboth and during the week in Greensboro, with some flexibility! I have lifelong experience and deep love for animals. I’ve been caring for animals my whole life, including my own three dogs – one of whom is a senior and two other high energy dogs, including a Whippet and a Jack Russell blend – along with two indoor/outdoor rescue barn cats. With a large property for exercise and play, I understand the unique needs of different breeds and personalities. My experience extends beyond my own pets, as I’ve been trusted to care for others beloved animals for years. I’m passionate about providing attentive and reliable care, ensuring every pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I am a teacher and will be gone from my home 8 hours of the day. I can be available to come let pets out for a potty break in the middle of the day some days. I am free on weekends all day. If your pet is crate trained they will be on the same schedule as my own! I have cared for many animals, boarding, walking/running, and general care. My pets are allowed on furniture for snuggles and free roam of the house, to explore and move! I have two high energy dogs that need to go on runs daily. I am fit and we are on a dirt road and a large property so getting exercise is easy! My dogs have their own bedroom and actual bed, but are also crate trained for during the day. They are very friendly, love other animals and our cats!
About: I have had many dogs and cared for many others. It is a true labor of love for me and something I really love doing. I’m retired so my schedule is super flexible. Whatever your schedule I can probably accommodate it. Give me a try and let’s see if we can work it out. I love them but I don’t board dogs (sorry). Couldn’t negotiate that successfully with my wife. I do love spending time with them on walks or in your home.
“Jasmine is Great with our 3 dogs. We were a little worried in the beginning because one is very protective and not very sociable, but they ALL love her and when they know she’s coming they get so excited to get their harnesses on and are waiting at the door. Highly recommend Jasmine!”
About: I have been pet sitting friends and neighbours animals for years. I grew up helping out in SPCAs and different animal clinics. I also worked in a boarding kennel for three and a half years. I have plenty of experience caring for all different types of dogs or other animals. I work as a Server so I have plenty flexibility to make time for your animals and your needs for your pets. I am about to a custom your needs how ever you like. I care about making sure the environment and setting that your animals are in is as well taken care of as your animals. I pride myself on being respectful of any setting I am need to take care of your pets.
About: I've cared for and have had the privilege of sharing my life with dogs, cats, birds, horses, rabbits, and goats. I've been lucky enough to have raised three dogs from puppydom to senior pooches, all three living beyond 18. I currently share my home with a 13 years old Miniature Pinscher named Sadie. I couldn't imagine continuing on without a furry child in my life. They are central and that's how I feel about all my charges as well. I have extensive experience in caring for puppies, tweens, teens, adults and senior dogos. Unfortunately, I can no longer work with bully breed or bully mixes. I'm available anytime and often at short notice. I have no limitations or restrictions between the hours of 9A until 9P seven days a week. I can only care for small dogs (under 25 lbs) in my own home as my HOA has restrictions on pet size. In your home, your pet will be either King or Queen. They will be pampered and loved as you would want them to be.
About: Hello! I offer a specialized, ultra-attentive doggy daycare and boarding experience right here in Dagsboro. Unlike traditional high-volume environments, my business operates on a strict Constant Care model. This means your dog receives 100% direct human supervision and is never left unattended for longer than a quick bathroom break. Because I focus entirely on safety, peace of mind, and individualized attention, my rates reflect a premium level of service. My Safe-Graduation Setup: To protect my own small, senior dog and two cats, I utilize a careful, low-stress transition plan for all incoming guests: The Baseline Suite: Initial visits and early boarding periods take place in my secure, comfortable, and fully supervised basement area. I hang out right alongside your dog to bond with them and evaluate their unique personality. On-Leash Graduation: Once your dog is fully relaxed and comfortable with me, we graduate to controlled, on-leash introductions in our secure outdoor space. Secure Play Yard: Your pup will have access to a dedicated, secure potty area (which is currently expanding into a fully enclosed backyard) for safe sniffing and play. Strict Safety Limits for Peace of Mind: Small Intake Limit- I strictly cap my home at a maximum of 3 guest dogs at any one time. Your pup will never be overwhelmed by a large pack. Size Restrictions: I exclusively accept small and medium dogs to ensure a safe, harmonious energy level for everyone. Cat-Friendly Guests Only: For the safety of my household cats, I only accept dogs with a proven history of calm behavior around felines.If you are looking for a true "home away from home" where your dog is treated like family and never left alone, I would love to meet you! I work for myself out of my home so I have flexible availability. Limited availability Saturday mornings. Otherwise, though, I am free to hang out with your pup! I have a fenced potty area and plenty of space in my neighborhood for as many walks as is necessary! I have a senior small dog who loves to sleep and chill, but still has plenty of play left in him as well. Our home is also ruled by 2 female cats, they gave me permission to post this
About: FYI--Recently retired from the Federal Government. I did a Katrina mission to offer counseling to those who lost their homes. However, I was asked to volunteer in a pet shelter because the pets were abandoned due to the crisis at hand. It was one of the hardest things I have ever done. I figured I could do it, if I didn't look the pets straight in the eye (to prevent the heartbreak and the tears from flowing). Well, one little doggie who was in the corner of her pen shaking and shivering, grabbed ahold of my ankle as I was walking out of her pen (after cleaning it and feeding and watering her) and she wouldn't let go. She dragged her little butt along the concrete flooring as I tried to close the gate. I broke down into tears immediately and said "okay, I'll take you home with me and the cat in the pen next to you". Yes, I rescued them both... Or should I say they rescued me..from Empty Nest Syndrome. They have brought so much love into my life! My Mississippi Mud Pie (Boston Terrier) has now gone to Doggie Heaven and I want to provide love to other's pets in honor of her memory. My schedule has recently opened up more since retiring from the Federal Government, and I have a lot of time to devote to other's pets and animal care. When a dog is in my care, I provide very frequent walks and cater to your pet throughout the entire time they are with me. I like keeping animals happy and content. I provide a safe, trusting and caring environment. I am very nurturing and provide excellent care and attention. I am very attentive of animals needs.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Marshtown. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers 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 walker.
