“Thank you Jacob for taking such good care of Tank. It’s the first time we’ve needed someone to care for tank while we were out so long. If I need the service again. I will absolutely book with you.”
About: I have over six years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with walking, feeding, bathing, playtime, and overnight care. I’m patient, dependable, and always focused on keeping dogs comfortable, safe, and happy while maintaining their normal routine. Pet care fits well into my routine. I’m mostly available on weekends and can coordinate weekday care depending on location and timing. I’m flexible and committed to maintaining each pet’s normal schedule and routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, keep a clean and calm environment, and monitor pets closely. I respect your home, provide updates, and make sure pets feel secure, relaxed, and well cared for at all times.
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 10 years and currently have three dogs of my own. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I treat every dog as if they were part of my family. I provide a safe, loving, and dependable environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. My goal is to make both pets and owners feel comfortable and at ease. I currently work rotating shifts, but I will work with you the best I can. I also dont mind last minute scheduling if needed . At this time, I'm not sure I would do pet sitting in my own home. I am willing to do whatever is needed for your pet in your home.
“Steve provides my cats with loving care while I am away. I have one cat who is difficult and can be unfriendly and he has won her over! He sends pictures of her sitting on his lap! He is always prompt and thoroughly cleans the litter box. I love the photo updates he sends while visiting with the cats - I can tell that they are well-cared for. He truly loves animals - it is very obvious from the care and attention they receive.”
“Kelly was amazing! I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a dog sitter in the area. She was professional, reliable and really sweet with our older dog Scooter. We had complete peace of mind during our vacation knowing that Scooter was in good hands. We're already planning on using her during our next trip!”
“Jacqueline is awesome and took amazing care of our furbaby! She sent multiple photos and updates each visit which made us feel at ease while we were gone. We highly recommend her! Thank you ☺️”
About: I have always been a pet owner.I love animals and would love to take the worry and stress out of your life by taking care of yours while you’re away. I know first hand how stressful this can be. No worries with your fur baby being here alone while I’m at work, I currently work from home so I’m available for drop off or pick up anytime. Unfortunately, I can not do drop ins at your home until after 230. I have a 4 year old Shih tzu/bichon/poodle mix and a 2 year old cat. I live in a condo so we walk daily to get his (and my) exercise. I can have your pet here overnight, come to your house to walk or just check in. Im very flexible.
About: We have two dogs that are well loved and I know that your dogs are part of your family as well. Pets deserve to have the best care that is more than meeting basic needs. Your furry friend should feel safe, be cared for and enjoy playful interactions while you’re away on business or vacation. I will be attentive to their cues, will spend time playing and making sure their well being is top priority. Most importantly, I will follow your instructions to make sure that I provide seamless care for your pet that meets your needs and follows your household and pet’s routine uninterrupted. I have just graduated college so I am available immediately. I’d love to help in anyway I can. Please contact me if you have any questions! I can visit your home multiple times per day, or I can come and spend time at your home so your pups can be fed, walked and played with. Please contact me if you have any special requests!
“We never left the cats before and were worried. All our concerns went away during the meet & greet - even our shyest liked Melanie. The pics she sent showed the cats playing and content. When we got home they weren’t all clingy & needy. We would definitely hire her again”
About: Growing up I have always lived helping others and even helping animals. As a young kid, I grew up surrounded by all kinds of animals. Although my college plan is to become a special education teacher, I have always had a passion for animals. I really enjoy giving animals a voice and creating special bonds with them. Over the years my family has rescued over 8 animals including dogs and cats. I have been dog sitting for 3 years now for family friends and I am willing to do it for anyone in need. Animals have always left an impact on my life and I hope I do the same to them. I am not doing this for the money but to help many animals in need, as well as their owners. I really hope I am able to give endless love to you pet or pets. Thank you.
“Brooke did a wonderful job with our little puppy! She was very responsive and gave us updates and pictures. It was nice to know our little guy was in good hands. Definitely going to be using her again!”
“Jennifer is amazing! She recently watched my 11-month-old puppy, Charlie. It was my first time leaving him with a sitter since I adopted him, so naturally I was a little nervous. From the moment I met Jennifer, I could tell right away that Charlie would be in great hands. She treated Charlie as if he were her own dog, with lots of love and attention. She shared adorable photos after every visit and updates that made me chuckle. It was really nice knowing that not only was Charlie being taken care of, he was also being loved while I was away. When I got home from my trip he was happy as a clam!”
About: My whole life has been around dogs! I believe they are the most well intentioned creatures on the planet. From puppies to seniors every dog i meet will be a joy to work with 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: I have had a variety of pets of all ages with some needing special care. I enjoy walks, playtime and snuggles from fur babies. I have flexibility and can work with your schedules to give the proper care to your pets. I am currently working a casual job and would like to fill more of my time with what brings me joy which are animals. I only have my older cat but enjoy dogs of all sizes, other cats; I have fed fish, small reptiles, and horses. I do travel but have flexibility in my schedule. I have a fenced in yard and a home where I can close off play areas if needed. I can provide litter boxes separately if needed and clean out as needed. I am happy to listen to your requests and concerns and follow your routine for your pets. I am comfortable going to your home where your pets are ‘at home’ and walk, feed and play with them in their own setting.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Millsboro
Kelly is nothing short of fantastic. Being a first time Rover user, and never even previously leaving a pet outside the care of a trusted immediate family member, I was a bit nervous. Kelly took extra time to provide an overview of what the process looks like, expectations, and plenty of reassurance. During my time away, Kelly lovingly cared for my shy little furball, sharing photos and text updates -- it was almost like I was there myself. She was respectful of my home and property, leaving everything in the same or better condition than how it was initially left. Kelly was so attentive and gentle that Luna (who hides from everyone!) actually showed interest in sharing play time. I look forward to working with Kelly much more in the coming years. I wholeheartedly recommend

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Millsboro stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Millsboro. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
