“Jenny took such great care of my sweet boy! She sent daily updates and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was very attentive, communicated well, and was always quick to answer any questions I had. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I’d definitely trust her to watch him again.”

““I can’t thank Olinda enough for the amazing care she gave Ollie! From the moment we arrived, I could tell how excited and happy he was to be around her. Her warmth, attentiveness, and genuine love for dogs shine through. It’s such a relief to know Ollie was in such good hands.”

“I’m thankful for Kari & Jospeh’s family for loving and caring my baby like their own, it was stress free time during his stay we’re I don’t have to worry about how he is doing since he is in great hands. My boy would love to come back again,”


“Mike is very patient and absolutely took great care of my dog. He was very communicative, sent pictures and updates about my dog during the stay. I was happy to know my dog was happy and relaxed during the stay. Highly recommended!”

“Brittany took great care of Chewy during our vacation! He looked happy in each picture she sent while we were away. He even took his 1st swim! She has a wonderful yard to explore and I can tell her family loves animals. I looked forward to her pictures and updates daily. So glad I found her at the last minute and we will absolutely use her services again! Thanks again Brittany!”

“Nikkita was excellent. She responds to texts quickly and kept me updated on possible problems. She sent me frequent photos as well. Winston seemed to like her and her family! Would definitely recommend.”

“Brooklyn was wonderful to my two dogs. I was in town for business and traveling with my dogs. She took great care of them, played with them all day and made them feel comfortable stopping for the weekend in Delaware. I was traveling from GA to CT and this allowed me to relax would use her again when I return to town.”

“The sweetest people! They agreed to take my puppy less than a week before my trip(after I got canceled on and started stressing). I was super nervous since this was the first time leaving him but I wrote instructions and I feel as though they followed every single one! I got picture updates as requested and when they had questions they asked. He got plenty of playtime and outdoor/potty time! They also didn't mind us bringing our crate to their home since were are crate training snd he sleeps in there. I will definitely use them again in the future! Thank you so much for taking Waffle into your home and treating him like your own!”

About: We are a family with a 13 year old girl, 9 year old girl, 2 sweet cats, 2 hamsters and a yorkie! All our animals are vaccinated and not aggressive. Our girls are animal lovers and have been caring for pets since they could walk! We are used to prioritizing pet needs and are home throughout most days and could likely accommodate the most unique needs - without judgment! We have 3 adults in the home and there is rarely no one home at all. One adult works part time and one works from home. Kids have school and sports but as a family, we are used to prioritizing pets’ needs regardless of the daily schedule. We live in a beautiful neighborhood with nearby parks for walks and have a small back yard that is not fenced in. We have space for a crate indoors if needed, but also can provide lots of snuggles.
About: My schedule can be flexible so please let me know what you need and I'll be sure to let you know if we can make it work! I have owned a couple dogs in the past and dog sit for my family and friends all the time. We currently have two cats that are dog friendly, or tolerant. We’d love to host your fur babies with us for a long weekend to let you get away. I work full-time Mon-Fri so would mostly be available for weekend boarding, Fri-Sun. I am available for drop in visits or walks during the week after 5pm. We have a fully fenced in yard with tons of shade and multiple rooms and spaces to separate animals as needed. Dogs are TOTALLY allowed on furniture and we have healthy treats as their diets allowed. Big neighborhood for walks (with sidewalks) and the pavement is always tested on my own skin before their precious paws. I have lick mats and kongs for mental stimulation and love to fill them with protein and veggies.
About: I teach at CRHS and am looking to help out around town in my free time! I grew up with Goldendoodles and currently have a 3 year old Bernedoodle but am willing to work with all breeds. I work normal school hours so can work in the evenings and on the weekends. Let me know your needs and I can be as flexible as possible. I have a fenced yard and a 5 month old Mini Bernedoodle puppy. I can’t wait to hangout in town and around my fenced yard with your pup.
About: My name is Amanda & I am a Physician Assistant in the Emergency Department. Working in the ED allows me to have multiple days off per week due to the shiftwork. I had a corgi that was my pride and joy for 7 years, until he unfortunately passed away due to cancer in April 2026. Dogs bring me so much joy and since my dog passed I have been searching for any and all opportunities to hang out with dogs on my days off! I have a lot of experience interacting with dogs of all sizes & ages, from puppies to older dogs. I was a Rover walker years ago when I graduated from school and I’m so excited to get back into it. Now that I have my own home with my husband in Middletown, DE I am happy and excited to offer boarding in our home. Dogs are my pride & joy, & I can assure you that whether it is sitting, walking, or boarding, your furry loved one is in good hands! I work shift work in the ER which allows me to have multiple weekdays off to help walk, let out and exercise your pups! My husband and I miss having the company of a dog at home and would love to board your pup in our home too! My husband and I had a corgi that was on multiple medications for orthopedic and behavioral issues so I am very familiar with administering meds if needed! Our house has a large fenced in backyard for your pup to run around. We have 2 large dog beds for use too, as well as a huge bin of dog toys! Dogs are allowed on our furniture (as long as it’s ok with you guys of course)!
“Angie and her husband took great care of my dog! They sent me several pictures throughout the weekend so I knew my dog was in good hands and she was having lots of fun. I will definitely have her watch my dog again.”

“Gina is wonderful! She sent us frequent videos and pictures to keep us posted and we knew our dog was having a good time there. Fifi was so well loved and taken care of during her second time away from us. Fifi definitely enjoyed her stay with Gina and her husband! We will keep using this service in the future.”


“So it was last minute; however, Lauren opened her door for me and took care of my Cayo! She was very caring and fun for Cayo. Cayo got along greatly with Lauren’s dogs and children. Cayo got plenty of playing time as well, which I’m thankful that I got many photos of! I highly recommend Lauren to provide care for your puppies as well, because I know I will be returning for her services!!! Thanks Lauren! ~ Matt & Cayo Hughes”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Seven Hickories
Deanna was absolutely amazing, and we will definitely be booking with her again! We left Remi with her for a week while we were on vacation, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was being so well cared for. The daily texts and photos were such a wonderful bonus and made us smile every day. A special thank you to Deanna for being so patient, caring, and loving as Remi adjusted to being around other dogs and all the new sights and smells. We truly appreciate everything she did to make him feel comfortable and cared for. Thank you so much, Deanna—we couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Seven Hickories home-away-from-home, 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 Seven Hickories.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Seven Hickories 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 , 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 .
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.
