“Bronwen is always attentive to Tootsie’s needs. She’s creative with natural foods. She treats Tootsie like her own fur baby. I like the pictures she sends me. The backyard is perfect for exploring and her house is set up for rest and being playful with no canine odor.”
“We had to board our Remy for the weekend, a last minute trip, and thankfully found Birol! He was available and his profile - his love for dogs/animals - is what sold us. He sends video & photo updates. I was worried that our dog may be a little too energetic, but B reassured us that he could handle it and he did. When our Remy came back home, he kept laying in front of the door - he misses his buddy B! I can’t thank him enough for taking care of our Rem. I’m bummed I didn’t find him sooner! Definitely will be re-booking.”
“I couldn’t have imagined a better experience than what Elizabeth (Beth) provided for my dog Liesel. Liesel is a fairly new rescue and I was concerned that it might be a bit traumatic changing homes even for a short period of time. However, her will stay with Beth, her family, and darling dog Otis was without a doubt an adventurous and happy vacation for Liesel. Beth makes sure there is plenty of exercise, play, and love for your pet…just as if your pup is one of her own. Liesel even came home with some new training for which I am very grateful. I highly recommend Beth - you can absolutely leave your dog in her care with the confidence that they will be treated and cared for in the best way possible. Thank you so very much, Beth… Liesel is looking forward to her next visit with you and your family…Liesel sends her love and appreciation 💗 Jean”
“Lauren was great! She took amazing care of my dog and sent updates so I knew he was being well taken care of. We did a meet and greet beforehand with our dogs which I appreciated. Definitely will use again!”
“Kelly loved her stay with George! His dogs were great with her, and she enjoyed his fenced yard and walks in the woods. I know this, because when I picked her up, she wanted to go back in his house. 😂 The updates with pictures were great while we were away.”
“Bear and Bailee had another GREAT 😊 stay with Julianna!!! They were with her for 4 nights and she took really good care of them. I felt entirely comfortable leaving them with her! My pups can be a bit clingy at time and my Bear-Bear can be a little moody and he had a great time with her mom 😊. I am so grateful to have found Julianna. ♥️”

I am a recent graduate from the University of Delaware. My schedule is pretty flexible this summer, I am extremely communicative & love to care for pets. I live with 2 dogs & 2 cats. The cats & dogs are separated. I am very patient with animals!

“Kelli and her husband took great care of my dog, Blizzard, who had a wonderful time playing with her dogs. Kelli was very caring and easy to work with. I highly recommend Kelli, and Blizzard would happily return for another getaway.”
“Danita and her family were amazing with our dog Finley. She updated us frequently and sent photos of our dog settling in and getting comfortable. I knew our dog was in good hands, was well taken care of, and got plenty of walks and belly rubs. I would 100% recommend Danita to care for your dog!”
“Olivia was well taken care of. We received plenty of updates and pictures while we were away. Communication was excellent and drop off and pick up were very easy. Cassandra will be our go to sitter from now on.”
“When I first met Laura, I was impressed by how she handled my fearful and sometimes reactive dog. Her calm and confident demeanor and her caring attitude quickly won over Calvin. Within minutes of meeting Laura and her dog, Wally, Calvin was literally eating out of her hands. Laura not only gave me peace of mind during my vacation by sending me photos of Calvin and keeping me updated, but she also made Calvin feel safe and part of her family. I will definitely use Laura's services again!”
“We absolutely love Geosselyn! She took care of our cat over our Hawaii vacaction for about a week, gave him all his meds without trouble, and gave him his own little room and are and tower to play on. She also had cameras on him which was nice, and took pictures that she sent to us to relive our stress! Couldn’t be any happier honestly”
“Juliana was amazing with my 5mth old mini doxie puppy. Every thing is new to him, and I was nervous about leaving him for the wkd. She has the perfect home & yard and made him so comfortable, that I picked up a calm and happy puppy. I will absolutely take him back to stay with her.”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Lori. She takes such great care of my very fussy Dora. My dog ran right into her house for her second overnight visit. She obviously loves going there. Thank you Lori.”
About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and had three family dogs. When I grew up with my grandparents, I learned how to help different animals while working in their mini farm. I am a recent grad from UPenn currently studying for my professional certification exam. I am very flexible in terms of scheduling. If you have any concerns, I would love to hop on a call to learn about them and also chat with you! I currently live in a multi family home with family. I probably won’t be able to provide in home services due to allergies from some family members.
“Sangeetha is just the best! She knows dogs and is gentle, consistent and considerate of both dogs and people. She and her spouse take such great care and I never worry when my Max is staying there!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New Castle
The fact that Courtney is a vet was one of the reasons I reached out to see if she was able to watch Sunny for a weekend while I was out of town due to how anxious she can get. Let me tell you, she did not disappoint. During the meet and greet, she asked about emergency vet info and offered her office as an option for urgent but non-emergency situations since I don’t have a primary emergency vet. She was aware of Sunny’s needs while she was there. Courtney also kept great communication and sent lots of videos and pics during her stay. I would 10/10 recommend her and will definitely be booking services with her again when the time comes!

There are 2,015 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in New Castle. About 91% of New Castle sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in DE ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
