About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with dogs and cats, and now having two rescue dogs of my own, I just can't imagine life without them. I haven't used Rover before, but I've spent years watching friends' dogs and cats whenever they needed someone they could trust. I've raised puppies, cared for kittens, and even handled medications when needed, so I'm no stranger to what animals need to feel safe and loved. I come to your home so your babies can stay in their own space, in their own routine. Every animal is different and I take the time to get to know them. Big or small, they all get the same gentle, attentive care. I just genuinely love animals, and that's something you'll see the moment I meet your pet. I'm always happy to set up a meet-up before booking so we can connect, your pet can get comfortable with me, and we can make sure it feels like the right fit for everyone I recently graduated from Arcadia University with my Master's in Physician Assistant Studies. While I study for my boards and prepare to move back home to Washington, I have time on my hands and want to spend it doing something I truly enjoy. Right now my days are completely open, which means your dog gets my full attention. No rushing off, no squeezing them in between a busy schedule. I'm there as long as they need me. As the mom of two very needy rescue dogs, I completely understand wanting your babies to have someone around as much as possible, and right now, I'm in a position to give exactly that! Since I will be in your home, my first priority is to respect whatever routine and rules you have in place for your pet. I am happy to provide as much or as little entertainment, snuggles, or space as your fur baby needs. When it comes to walks, I'm no stranger to dogs that pull on the leash or get reactive around other dogs. I've handled strong, reactive animals before and I feel confident and calm managing them.

About: I’ve had my own dog for 15 years now. I have done favors for many friends/family/neighbors of mine helping them with their animal while away. I can go on daily walks with your dog. Weekends are my ideal availability, but I can accommodate through the week if necessary, even if it’s just to check in on a cat to make sure they have food and water. I have a fenced backyard for my older dog. We do go on walks daily when cognitively he is able too. I can crate the dog if necessary. I give baths monthly and always make sure to have treats for him.

About: Hello! My name is Lily, and I have been taking care of pets for nearly 12 years. I adopted my first dog over 11 years ago. She had a lot of trauma from before we adopted her, and so have other dogs we have adopted, so I have plenty of experience with anxious “problematic” pets! I have owned 4 rescues in my life which all had their own quirks, and I have also watched dogs and cats for many people in my community. I have watched puppies and senior dogs who need help going to the bathroom. I have watched cats with three legs, cats who always get out, and even lizards! I absolutely love animals and I would love to get to know you and your fur babies. Message me if you have any questions! I’m currently working full-time in Wilmington DE, but unfortunately in this economy that’s not enough! I am available early in the mornings (before 8am), at lunch time, and after 5pm for walks and visits. I can do overnight stays as well, and I am always available on the weekends! Everyone has their own particular preferences for their pet. Some allow pets on furniture or in the bed, and some exclusively use a crate. Some dogs may love walks, while others prefer to run around in the backyard. I have worked with many different owners and pets and I will adjust to whatever is best for your pet! As for me personally, there is a wonderful dog park near my apartment that I take my dog to almost daily, she loves it! She doesn’t love walks and prefers to run around freely, and it allows her to play with other dogs and socialize! Every dog has different needs and I will make sure to meet them.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the level of patience, attention, and personalized care I give every pet. I understand that each animal has a different personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. As a child, i always loved all types of animals. Currently I’m a full time nursing student, I’m used to managing a structured schedule and balancing responsibilities. During the week, I plan pet care around classes and study time to ensure dogs still get reliable walks, exercise, and care. I’m comfortable with evening walks, and I understand the importance of being dependable and attentive to routines, especially for pets that thrive on consistency. As a nursing student, I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and comfortable following care instructions closely, which helps me provide attentive and compassionate pet care. So in a client’s home, I respect the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding routines, medication schedules if needed, preferred walking routes, crate routines, and house rules. I also keep the home clean, secure, and provide updates so owners feel comfortable while they’re away.

Julia was absolutely amazing! She was right on time, very flexible, super sweet, and treated my puppy, Fern, like her own! She and Fern became fast friends, and Fern was very sad to see Julia go. I’ll be booking with Julia again, no question about that!

Sharesse was very good with our hyper goldendoodle. She was very patient and knew exactly how to handle him to keep him relaxed. She was on time and also did the small things we asked. However, she didnt check in and check out from the app like other Rover sitters, but our ring cams gave us notification. Not a big deal, and she forgot to lock the patio door but did use the safety stick, so noone could get in. Otherwise she was great and we would use her services again!!

About: I've had dogs for most of my life, but the last few years I've been taking care of my diabetic dog, Dixie. Taking care of her has taught me a lot, like how to account for specific dietary restrictions, handle maintenance medications, and how to help her live an easier life after her diagnosis and the eventual loss of her sight and hearing. Because of her, I know how to care for and handle animals with similar restrictions, and I couldn't be more grateful. At the moment, I'm available virtually every afternoon except for Tuesdays, so I can easily and reliably fit your pet care needs into my schedule. At home, I have 3 dogs and a cat, all with personalities varying from eccentric and energetic to reserved and individualistic. I'm used to pets ranging from small to large, and can account for any dietary/medical restrictions.

About: I have been dog sitting since I was a kid. My neighbors, friends, and family would always reach out to me to care for their dogs while away or just to walk and let them out on a busy day. I have some experience training dogs, grooming them, and giving medications. I have also helped foster dogs! I am active and love to walk and play with pups but can also act as a great companion or company! I work 3 days out of the week. I am looking to care for pets on the days that I am not working. My schedule differs each week. I am looking for something to keep me busy and entertained on those days! I am safe and knowledgeable when it comes to pet care. I am comfortable coming into your home and handling your pet and of course cleaning up their messes! I love being outside, playing and being active! But I also love hanging out and being a companion when your fur baby needs it.

About: I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and temperaments, including energetic puppies, senior dogs, and anxious pets who need extra reassurance.

I’d like to use some more of my free time to help others in my area feel confident in their pet’s care. I care for pets in my home in the same way I care for my own cat, Lil Mac! He is a mellow tabby with the most patient personality. Following particular routines can be easily accommodated due to my flexibility schedule.

About: I have been a pet sitter for over 3 years for my friends and family! I love to interact with all kinds of animals and try my best to be attentive to their needs. I also was a caregiver for the elderly and enjoy serving others and seeing people smile. Fun fact about me is that I was a Philadelphia Eagles Cheerleader and performed in the 2018 Superbowl with the team. GO BIRDS AND GO PETS!! I am currently working part time and have availability Wednesday through Monday afternoon for boarding. I am someone who is reliable and can work around other schedules. In my client's home, I try to care for them by feeding them and taking them for walks. Sometimes I even like to sing to the pets I sit for and give them lots of attention and snuggles!

Diana was wonderful with my pup! He gave her a bit of a hard time going outside at first since he’s used to only going out with me, but she was patient and he quickly warmed up to her. She kept me updated with great communication and sent pictures the whole time, which gave me so much peace of mind. I’ll definitely be using her services again. Thank you so much, Diana!
