“When I was injured and unable to walk my dog, Luna, Matthew was an absolute lifesaver. He showed up every single day; rain or shine; right on time, without fail. His reliability and dedication gave me such peace of mind during a challenging time. Not only was he dependable, but Luna absolutely adores him. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the dogs he walks. Matthew’s consistency, kindness, and professionalism have been an essential part of both my recovery and Luna’s happiness. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog walker.”
“Highly highly recommend Tena! She has been wonderful with Reese. Tena was incredibly attentive during our initial meeting, has been very communicative throughout the walks, and is very knowledgeable about pet care - her passion for dogs shows in her work.”
“Jordana is one of the best! She went out of her way to make us feel comfortable as we left our Stella for the weekend. She sent photos and videos. Kept in contact with me throughout her walks. 100% recommend and I can’t wait to book her again in the future.”
“Beth was wonderfully caring with our dogs. She played with them and sent videos. They were so happy with her! She was a wonderful sitter/walker and we will definitely hire her again !”
About: Animals have always been a central part of my life, as I grew up in a pet-loving household where we cared for everything from hamsters and turtles to multiple dogs, guinea pigs, ferrets, and even fish. I’ve also volunteered both formally and informally with local SPCA chapters and animal shelters from a young age, helping to walk, feed, and care for dogs of a variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I have hands on experience with dogs who need extra attention and medical care. I've raised two dogs from puppyhood—my current dog, Sophia, and a pit bull my family had previously—and have done everything from potty training to leash work and daily routines. Sophia is diabetic and blind, so I’m no stranger to giving insulin shots, monitoring glucose levels, and understanding how to be patient and calm with pets who have special needs or anxiety. Whether it's caring for seniors, puppies, or pets with health conditions, I always aim to treat them like family because that’s exactly what they are. I am currently on break from school at the University of Delaware, so my schedule is pretty flexible. Preferably, I am available after 10:00 AM and before 8:00 PM. For overnights, I will stay with your pet for 12 hours (start/end depends on animals schedule) and do one drop in during the mid day. Reach out to me for additional care options (constant care, additional visits, etc.)! When I care for pets through walks or drop-in visits, I approach each home and animal with respect, patience, and awareness. I know every pet has their own personality, boundaries, and needs, so I'll never assume anything upon first meeting. I take time to observe their behavior, let them come to me at their own pace, and make sure we’re both comfortable before jumping into getting close and personal. This also helps me gauge what kind of interaction they’re ready for and to prioritize safety—for your pet and for myself—by staying alert to their body language, keeping a calm energy, and never rushing trust. I will follow any specific instructions you give closely, especially if your pet has particular sensitivities or routines. I also take practical steps on walks, like avoiding overly stimulating routes or unknown dogs, and I’m always careful with things like leashing, doors, or feeding to avoid stress or accidents. I recently earned a certificate from the American Red Cross in Pet CPR and First Aid, so I am prepared even for the worst situations (which I hope I never will have to be 😅).
“Amanda was great! She is always on time and makes our dogs care her priority. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a responsible dog sitter or walker.”
“Jordan is patient and kind when working with my dog. She is punctual and flexible if you need her to be. I have already booked her for another walk and will continue to do so in the future.”
About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life, and started sitting over a decade ago. I will always meet your pet where they are in terms of their need for attention and affection. I have experience in giving liquid and pill meds, as well as IV fluids to cats. I am an active person, and have no problem with log walks or runs for dogs. My schedule is flexible, so I can adapt to a variety of needs. I am a professor with a flexible schedule and work primarily from home, especially in the summer, so I can typically adapt my schedule to what your needs are. I will always respect both your home, and your pets needs in your home. I know that your home is their territory, and I am a guest to them, so I will never force myself on to them or into a space they may not want me in.
About: I provide loving, personalized care for all pets. I’m experienced caring for puppies and senior pets, including giving medication and extra support. Your pet will feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. I make sure to spend quality time feeding, walking, playing, and monitoring each pet’s health every day. I also keep a consistent schedule to help pets feel comfortable and secure. On a weekly basis, I update owners with reports and adjust care as needed to meet each pet’s unique needs. At my home, where I live in an apartment with my friendly dog, I create a safe, clean, and comfortable space for pets to relax and play. I stick to their regular routines for feeding, exercise, and rest to keep them happy and stress-free. For clients’ homes, I follow instructions closely, maintaining their pet’s usual schedule and environment to minimize disruption. In both settings, I provide lots of attention, affection, and monitor their health to ensure they’re feeling their best.
About: I'm an experienced vet assistant, and have 4 fur babies of my own! Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, and petsit their pets for years. I have a diabetic cat, and am experienced with giving insulin, and administering other medications to cats/dogs. I currently work full time as a veterinary assistant. I'm available during my lunch break, most evenings and weekends to provide quality pet care 🙂 I'll walk your dog and clean up after them during the walk. I'll make sure there's enough food & water for your pet, and clean their bowls as needed.
About: Hi! I grew up around dogs so I’m comfortable with big and small ones. Love going for long walks and playing with all kinds of dogs! I’m a full time nurse just looking to give some love to your dogs on my days off😊. I would be great if you need someone to take your dog out while at work since I’m home during the day during the week! I believe everyone’s pets deserve the best! I am very responsible and simply just want to help out more in my free time! I would have a dog of my own if I didn’t work such long shifts.
“Diana was wonderful to have to walk both my dogs, it was a last minute decision to use Rover for the first time and I’m happy I gave it a try. I would def recommend Diana and would surely use her again in the future. Thanks for everything!”
“As always, Heather is wonderful with my Husky, Mya. And, even though the booking is for Mya (dog walking) alone, Heather always takes a minute to give Jackson, my very senior dog, a little attention. He appreciates it and so do I.”

Rhiannon P.
“If my dogs could talk, they’d probably ask me when I'm leaving again so Rhiannon can come back- she is simply amazing! She stayed at my house for a week to watch my two dogs, and they absolutely adored her. She gave them so much love, attention, and care—it was clear they were in great hands from the start. Not only were the dogs happy and relaxed when I got back, but the house was just the way I left it! Super reliable, super friendly, and clearly a dog person through and through. 10/10 would recommend—just don’t book her when I need her!”

“Erin has taken great care of my energetic doodle on many occasions! She shows him so much love, plays with him constantly and even offers advice to ensure I provide the best care possible as a not so knowledgeable dog mom. Her love for animals shows as soon as she meets a new pet. She has made my time away from Foles much easier for short and long trips, knowing that he is under such great care.”
