Sylvia was an incredible sitter! The moment my husband and I met her we knew she’d be great. She has such a lovely personality and you can tell how much she cares about animals. She made sure to keep us updated on how Trigger was doing and sending pictures, he looked so happy in all of them. When we picked him up, he was just happiest old pup. I most definitely recommend Sylvia to anyone that needs a sitter!

Carlie was a pleasure to work with and was super communicative with me for our Goldens care...She was also flexible and understanding when an unexpected sickness arose (which was not related to her care in any way) Would recommend her and will use her again for sure!

Margit and Bill were amazing! We got to OC and the hotel we booked a year prior as we checked in said no pets allowed which put us in between a rock and a hard place. I contacted Bill and Margit exchanged a few text messages and determined Dude would fit in perfectly with their dogs and family. We asked if they would mind picking up Dude from our hotel and they said sure no problem! I could not have been more pleased with the texts, picture updates and just how sweet they both were with my Dude! If you are looking for a sweet home for your pet family member and you are in OC please don't hesitate to reach out to them. It was the best experience for our entire family and instantly put my nerves at ease! Thank you Bill and Margrit we will definitely use your service again!

Bob was fantastic and his location is very convenient if you're staying in OC and can't bring your pup to your hotel. He sent lots of videos and photos throughout our stay, which we really appreciated, and he even gave our dog Lila some special gifts and treats. He was extremely responsive, caring, and accommodating. We'd book with him again if we're back in the area.

Dory’s first stay with Micki went very well and Dory had a great time. We’re very pleased with the care that Micki provided and have booked Dory’s next stay with Micki. As pet parents, we are very comfortable leaving Dory with Micki and know that she will be safe, loved, and well cared for.

We were so fortunate to find Jacqueline! We booked her for a few-day boarding for our dog, Siberian husky, and drop-in visits for our cat, and were very pleased with both. We loved receiving daily picture updates. Jacqueline was even bringing our dog every time she was checking on our cat which meant a lot, since our dog had a chance to visit a familiar environment. I highly recommend Jacqueline for any of your pets care needs! She is experienced, reliable, responsive and patient!

About: Growing up in a home filled with the joyful barks of dogs and the gentle chirps of a parakeet, my love for animals started early. For over a decade, I've been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family, caring for everything from playful pups and curious cats to turtles and farm animals. My passion doesn't stop at basic care—I'm an adventurer at heart and love taking dogs on outdoor escapades. Whether it's a leisurely walk through the park or a thrilling hike in the hills, I'm here to ensure your furry friend gets the exercise and excitement they crave (couch potatoes welcome too) and treat them like family. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work remotely with only an occasional in-office day (about once a quarter), so I’m home most of the day. I only leave briefly for the gym or occasional errands, allowing me to provide plenty of supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. I treat every pet like family and follow their normal routine as closely as possible. Since I work from home, dogs get plenty of supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I have a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and provide regular photo updates for owners. My friendly, fully vaccinated dog enjoys having canine visitors, and introductions are always done safely.

Best sitter! Molly had a great time running and resting at Kate’s house for the weekend. She had an extra crate for her when I forgot mine and also kept me updated with Molly’s day. I really appreciated the short turn around as my planned sitter canceled last minute and I was scrambling to find a reliable fix! Thank you Kate!

Kathy took great care on Kimi who got very ill with liver failure just a couple of days before our trip. Kathy made sure Kimi ate and drank and gave her numerous medications. Kimi looked better and more lively when we picked her up than when we dropped her off. We will surely call upon Kathy the next time we need dog sitting.

Can’t say enough how well our Sally was treated on her vacation from us! Irena and her family welcomed Sally as one of their own while we were away! Irena sent photo updates to us and we knew our girl was being well taken care of! Vacationing in Ocean City at a pet-unfriendly place? Bring your furbaby to Irena during your stay. Live in Ocean Pines or thereabouts? Irena is the perfect person to take in your beloved while you’re away!

McCray was great, will definitely use him in the future to care for my girl. She’s very sensitive, she does not like being away from her home. Well, we arrive at McCrays home for the 1st time ever, Rita jumps out the car and runs to the door, like she knows where she’s going! And when we returned after our trip to collect her, so excited to see our girl, she stared out the back window of the car as we drove away and she’s been moping around the house ever since we got home! Thanks McCray!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 149 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Selbyville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.

90% of Selbyville sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Selbyville landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.

If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Selbyville home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Selbyville.

Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Selbyville sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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.

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.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
