About: I have had dogs my whole life and started pet sitting back in high school. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and taking care of them just feels natural to me. In college, I also lived with cats, so I’m comfortable around both. I really treat every dog I watch like they’re my own — whether that means playtime, walks, or just some good cuddle time. I’m reliable, responsible, and always make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I am currently working part-time so I can help out with your furry friends and give them my full attention and all the love and care they deserve! "I care for pets as if they were my own, whether in my home or yours. The services I provide are always tailored to fit your pet’s specific needs — whether that’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, administering medication, or simply providing lots of love and attention. I’m happy to adjust my care depending on what your furry friend needs to feel safe, happy, and comfortable!"

Kasey did a fabulous job taking care of my pets. This was my first time using Rover and she went above and beyond my expectation. She sent daily pictures of my animals and updated me on how things were going! I came home to a spotless house and all of my animals resting & relaxing! I will definitely use Kasey again in the future! Highly recommend!!

Jacqueline was wonderful with our two German Shepherds! I was nervous as this was our first time leaving the boys with anyone other than family. Jacqueline was very patient in dealing with all my questions and even accommodated my request for a second meet and greet, to allow the boys to get comfortable with her, before her scheduled stay. She was very professional, clean and respectful of our home. I couldn't even tell anyone had been here. Most importantly, we returned home to two happy and relaxed pups. They didn't even seem to notice we had left! I just booked Jacquelin again. We have found our sitter!

About: I bring over 10 years of hands-on experience in the pet care field, with a background that goes far beyond basic sitting or walking. I am licensed, insured, bonded, and background checked, and I also own and operate my own professional pet care business, which means I approach every booking with a high level of responsibility, professionalism, and accountability. My experience includes working in animal rescue and volunteering, where I cared for animals of all species, temperaments, and medical needs. I have extensive experience with puppies, senior pets, and special-needs animals, including those requiring medications, mobility support, or extra patience and structure. Through this work, I’ve developed a strong ability to read the body language and communication cues of different species, allowing me to understand when a pet is comfortable, stressed, anxious, or unwell. I pay close attention to subtle changes in behavior, appetite, energy, and routine, which helps me recognize early signs of illness or behavioral changes and communicate concerns clearly and promptly with pet parents. My background in rescue and professional pet care has taught me the importance of calm, consistent care , especially for pets who may not thrive in boarding environments. I am confident working with pets who need extra reassurance, individualized routines, or specialized care, and I always prioritize keeping pets comfortable and secure in their own home. My goal is to provide attentive, reliable care that allows pets to feel safe and understood while giving their owners complete peace of mind. Pet care is not something I fit around another job. It is my full time profession, and I have intentionally built my daily schedule around providing reliable, attentive care for my clients and their pets. Because this is my business, I am able to plan my days with flexibility and prioritize consistency, routine, and comfort for the animals in my care. I am deeply passionate about both my work and the peace of mind it provides to pet owners. Caring for other people’s pets is something I take seriously, and I treat every visit with the same level of attention and responsibility I would expect for my own animals. With advance notice, I am available 24 seven for scheduled care, including overnights, drop ins, and extended visits. I also offer emergency visits for established clients when unexpected situations arise, subject to availability. This added flexibility allows my clients to feel supported, even when plans change. My goal is to be a dependable, long term care provider that pet owners can trust to be there when they need it most. When caring for pets in their own homes, I treat each space with the same respect and responsibility I would expect from someone caring for my own. I understand that inviting a pet sitter into your home requires a high level of trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I am licensed, insured, bonded, and background checked, and I also come with letters of reference that speak to my professionalism, reliability, and integrity. I am mindful of home security, privacy, and routines, and I follow all client instructions carefully. This includes locking up properly, respecting personal spaces, and maintaining a clean and orderly environment during every visit. My focus is always on keeping pets comfortable and stress free in familiar surroundings while ensuring their home remains safe and well cared for. Whether I am providing drop in visits or overnight care, I aim to create a calm, dependable presence that both pets and owners can feel confident about. My goal is to provide in home pet care that is not only attentive and compassionate for your pets, but also respectful, trustworthy, and professional within your home.

About: I absolutely love animals- both my own and other families pets! I moved to Lewes a few years ago from New Jersey and love being active outside and by the beach. My family and I adopted a dog a few years ago and she has brought so much joy to our family. I am very flexible with my daily schedule and around on most weekends and holidays. I am available mornings, afternoons and evenings as well as overnights. I am good with medications and open to any specific needs your pet might have. My cat and dog both have kidney disease, so I have great experience with both oral and injectable medications.

About: I’ve fostered dogs for over six years and have cared for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m experienced with puppies, seniors, shy pets, high energy dogs, and everything in between. I focus on making every pet feel comfortable and loved. I’m a college student athlete with a flexible schedule, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m able to give both cats and dogs consistent attention, playtime, feeding, and check-ins throughout the day to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for! I live in a clean, pet friendly apartment with six other girls who all love animals and respect pet boundaries. My home is safe, calm, and supervised, and I’m careful about routines, doors, leashes, and making sure every pet feels comfortable and secure.

John was very accommodating and flexible with both the start and end times, which I really appreciated. Willow was in great spirits when I got home, and I felt comfortable knowing she was well cared for. He also took the time to come to the house and meet me and Willow prior to the booking.I would definitely book with him again.

I am beyond grateful to have found Alison on Rover. She has such a lovely, calm and pleasant manner and took great care of my very rambunctious pup during the several overnights she watched him. Alison sent me updates with pictures of a very content dog, and took great care of my house. I cannot recommend her enough!

Jennifer is absolutely phenomenal. She is a natural caretaker and all around great person. She is reliable, professional, kind, caring, accommodating and trustworthy to say the least. She has consistently provided exceptional care to our 17 and 14 year old pups frequently for 10-12 hour days. She has a sunny personality and lights up the room. We are grateful to have found her and to know our babies are in great hands when we can’t be home.
