Your dog is safe in my hands!
Pet care experience
I’m a senior at the University of Delaware triple majoring in Insect Ecology and Conservation, Wildlife Ecology and Conservation and Agriculture and Natural Resources. As a hard-working, dedicated animal lover, I can assure you your furbabies will be in good hands! I’ve been working with animals since I was a child, allowing me to fully understand their behavior and needs. In the past, I’ve trained dogs to sit, speak, lay down, roll over, play dead, dance, crawl and even sneeze on command. I fully believe in positive reinforcement and repetition for the best training results and can train your dog at your request in addition to walking, feeding, and pet-sitting. With me, your dog will have a pawsitively pawfect experience! If you have any additional requests or questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Becca has assisted me with my pets for years now, and while her care is exception, her dedication to always improving her knowledge of dogs and cats truly sets her apart. Becca is studying at college in the field of animals and wildlife, also, and it makes me feel at ease knowing my babies are in the care of someone so well-educated and caring. Time after time Becca goes above and beyond, sending me detailed and honest updates, pictures, and even solid advice when I don’t feel like sifting through google for answers to my pets care! I trust her word completely and know that she always has my pet’s best intention in mind. I think it’s also important to mention that Becca handles the unplanned flawlessly. Once when she came over to walk Mr. P (my dog), I opened the door to let Becca in and accidentally let Mr. P out! He had no leash on and I was panicked that he’d get hit by a car, but Becca calmly and quickly called him back and got his attention with treats—she was able to approach him (he usually turns something like this into a game of “tag” or chase and so I was really worried he’d run into the street “playing”), scoop him up gently and safely get him back to me!!! Anyway, if you’re looking for someone to not just watch your pets, but truly love and care from them, then I can’t speak highly enough of Becca!! She’s made managing two dogs and two cats so much easier for me, and I no longer feel guilty leaving for work. I know each of my babies is eagerly waiting by the door for her to walk in!!
Becca is a very caring and responsible pet owner of two cats. Additionally, she has personally watched my two dogs while I was away from home several times. There was even a time where a medical emergency occurred with one of them while she was watching and she acted very quickly to get my dog the care it needed at a local animal hospital. Highly recommended as a dog sitter!
Becca is the absolute best pet sitter I have ever used! She watched my beagle and pitbull/Rottweiler mix on several occasions and they both love her! Becca is responsible and caring and there is no one I would trust more with my fur children when I’m gone!
Becca knows animal better than any walker I’ve seen. She knows the animals so well and can aclimate herself to any situation thrown at her. She really understands the animals, not just dogs, so well and you can be sure your pet is in the right hands with her!

Information Becca R. would like to know about your pet
I’d like to know in advance if a dog is reactive toward people, dogs, or other animals to avoid placing the dog in stressful situations or injuring others.
A typical day
I love to walk dogs in parks/open fields to ensure dogs received both exercise and play all at once! I also make training a fun experience for dogs using positive reinforcement and repetition. Any additional requests for your dog can likely be met!
