My pup loved playing with her dogs. i definitely will have her watch my dog again.”

“Cynthia was great with my 1 1/2 year old Sheltie. She allowed us to meet her and her pup a couple of weeks before our vacation, to make sure we all were comfortable with each other. Drop off day was hard for us since our Sheltie is only 1.5 year’s old and a rescue, we didn’t want to stress her out too much. Cynthia has lots of experience with rescues and was quick to pick up on her needs. During the vacation she sent us many videos and pictures, which helped a great deal. On pick up day she sent us home with homemade treats, bully stick, and a freshly laundered dog bed. I will definitely use Rover and Cynthia again!!!!”

“This was the first time that my Shaka has spent a week away from me since relocating here to Delaware approximately two years ago. I was naturally nervous and my anxiety was at an all time high. However, Myra calmed my nerves by reassuring me that he was fine and to enjoy my vacation and not to worry. Myra sent me several photos and updates throughout the day. I was so happy to see her giving my Baby so much attention and love. It truly calmed my nerves and I was able to enjoy a much needed vacation. My Shaka loves Myra and so do I. She is definitely my go to Sitter and I highly recommend her to care for and love on your Fur Baby.”

After meeting with Justin I was more at ease..till drop off day..then it all hit..Justin kept reassuring me that stratus would be fine and I felt better..but when I got the 1st update and I saw him playing with other pups and that goofy husky tongue hanging I knew he was ok. Justin and Stephanie were great with pupdates and communicated throughout the stay. If I messaged they were quick to respond. My boy came home happy healthy and I would recommend Justin to anyone. They provided pictures and messages. I was at ease knowing he was well taken care of. Will be using again as we do have a couple more trips planned”

“Cameryn was great! She watched my 2 kitties while I was away and they loved seeing her. She stopped by each day, fed lots of treats, and sent me pictures each time. It’s nice to know I can trust someone with my boys when I go away. Thank you Cameryn!”

Nobody else has been able to do that! Went above the minimal that was required for the visit. Very appreciative of Gianna’s help! Highly recommend.”
About: Ive owned dogs and cats since I was seven years old and grew up around animals my entire life. I currently have two large dogs and one medium dog that I trained and take care of. I have house sat for three families, with two medium to large dogs and a family with a medium dog and a puppy, each for a week at a time. I am comfortable with all animals including reptiles and can confidently handle large dogs. More than the physical aspects of caring for animals, I love to love on them with lots of pets and affection. Many animals are drawn to me despite being hesistant or fearful of people. I have a passion for training and correcting dogs with a calm and patient demeanor. I enjoy learning and studying dog body language to strengthen my understanding, care, and training for them. I am following my passion of working with animals, starting with work here on Rover. I am striving to someday start my own training and boarding business.

About: Hi! I'm Jordan, a lifelong animal lover with a special appreciation for cats and their unique personalities. I understand that every cat is different—some love attention and playtime, while others prefer quiet companionship and routine. My goal is to make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. Whether that means feeding, litter box maintenance, play sessions, administering basic care, or simply providing company, I'll treat your cat with patience, kindness, and respect. I'll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your feline family member is in good hands.
“Nicole is fabulous! She once again did a great job caring for our household of cats—most of them elderly, so they’re a handful. Nicole continues to prove she’s reliable and trustworthy.”
“Mike did a great job for us. We were away for an extended vacation. He kept us well informed about our cats but also things at our home. A neighbor left mail on our porch and an outdoor ornament blew off our house. He notified us on both issues. The ornaments were brought in and he checked our community mailbox to confirm our mail was being held by USPS. During our vacation we received a boil water notice; We informed Mike and he brought bottled water for our pets. It’s the second time we used him and I’m sure we will be using his services again.”
“Melissa let our dog out during lunchtime for us for several weeks and she was truly great! She was great at communicating with us and was very flexible with our changing schedule. Our dog also loved her! I would not hesitate to choose her again to take care of our dog!! ?”
“Breanna is Great! This was our first time using the service and we were nervous leaving our babies that now require medication (insulin/supplements) however after one conversation I felt comfort and reassured they were in good hands, and they certainly were! Timely check-ins, cute pictures, and most importantly, successful delivery of their medications. Highly Recommend!”
“Rebecca took great care of our dog. She was very dependable and on time even in poor weather conditions. Our dog was very comfortable with her. We would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Christopher was incredibly punctual and our enthusiastic pittie mix really liked him. He was available on short notice both for the drop in and also for a meet and greet beforehand. Definitely recommend him.”
“Maura did an excellent job. She cleaned the litter boxes and swept up around them. She washed the bowls and left everything very neat. We would absolutely hire her again. We would like to give her a $20 tip and say thank you very much. Jeanne and Bob Crossman”

“Tiffany responded timely to our booking request. She was welcoming to our pups and is clearly a natural dog person. After a quick introduction to exchange all relevant information, she helped us make a quick exit while distracting the pups. She was flexible with times so we could take a day of our camping trip to spend a day at the beach. We received a few pictures and had no concerns during our day apart. After letting her know when to expect us back, she prepared our pups to be ready and they were waiting on the porch for us so we could quickly pick them up and get back to camp. I would recommend her to anyone needing similar doggy day care in the area.”
About: I have cared for cats for most of my life but 5 years ago my fiancé and I adopted my first dog. For the past 5 years, I’ve cared for my dog, Mary Jane, who has been my sweetest teacher in understanding dog behavior, routines, and communication. Through caring for her, I’ve gained hands-on experience with daily walking, feeding schedules, basic training reinforcement, administering simple medications, and creating a calm, consistent environment for a happy pup. I have also cared for many friends pets while they were away on vacation. I may be new to Rover, but I’m not new to being a responsible, attentive animal owner. Caring for animals is already woven into my daily rhythm. I work part-time with flexible hours, giving me plenty of space in my schedule for peaceful walks, playtime, and check-ins with pets. I’m used to creating a balanced routine around my own dog, and bringing that same calm, attentive energy to other pets feels completely natural. I am currently free to sit/walk any day of the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and familiar environment for them. I follow your routines exactly as you outline them — from feeding instructions to walk times to any training cues your dog is used to. I keep doors and gates secured, monitor their body language closely, and make sure they always have fresh water and a comfortable space to relax. Trust is extremely important to me, so I communicate clearly, send updates/photos, and treat your home with the same respect and care I treat your pet.

This also means that I am good for vacations and other short-term jobs. I will work hard to provide a safe environment for all animals in accordance with guidelines set by my clients. For dogs, I prefer a fenced in yard, but will consider leashed walks depending on the size of your dog.

Drop off day was hard for us since our Sheltie is only 1.5 year’s old and a rescue, we didn’t want to stress her out too much. Cynthia has lots of experience with rescues and was quick to pick up on her needs. During the vacation she sent us many videos and pictures, which helped a great deal.

After meeting with Justin I was more at ease..till drop off day..then it all hit..Justin kept reassuring me that stratus would be fine and I felt better..but when I got the 1st update and I saw him playing with other pups and that goofy husky tongue hanging I knew he was ok. Justin and Stephanie were great with pupdates and communicated throughout the stay. If I messaged they were quick to respond. My boy came home happy healthy and I would recommend Justin to anyone. They provided pictures and messages. I was at ease knowing he was well taken care of. Will be using again as we do have a couple more trips planned”
“My two pups LOVE going to Stephanie. They play with Kane and take many walks and get lots of love. So.etimes i think they wonder why ive taken them home LOL. Highly recommend Steph!”
“Mike was great Ryder seemed like he enjoyed his stay, thank you Mike for the updates throughout our trip! Highly recommended for anyone who wants to make sure there puppers gets to someone who cares, and treats theirs like his own.”
“Zackie was very good with our dog. It was a blessing that we found her and to be so close. She always provided updates with photos and Chanel looked very happy. I love how she gets plenty of exercise with her too. Thank you and we will definitely see you again!”
“Shereen was fabulous with Daisy. Her fur babies are adorable and Daisy loved having playmates despite her being so much larger than them. Shereen is a true pet lover and her home and caring nature reflects that. I plan to use her services again for Daisy.”
“Tango had a wonderful time, and was very happy with her stay with Dawn and her family. She fit right in as a member of their “pack” I was very pleased with the care she received, she had plenty of fun and stimulation too.”
“Our dog Cooper seemed so happy during his overnight boarding. He normally doesn’t eat at first when being boarded but he was enjoying a treat and eating his breakfast within moments of being dropped off. We received thoughtful updates and photos and Cooper was relaxed, comfortable and had settled in so quickly. Fantastic communication and quick responses made our trip stress free; we knew our dog was in good hands!”
“Everything went well with my dog's overnight stay. She got her walks and Sandra communicated with me throughout her stay with photos. Much appreciated Sandra! Hope to use your services again. Lisa H.”
“Diane was great & I'd recommend her for your dog sitting needs. Cared for a senior dog with medication needs. Lots of walks! Kept us informed on how our dog was doing. A joy to talk to and was very friendly.”
“Deanna was very friendly and took very good care of our baby! She gave us updates and pictures of Bear regularly and let us know know his activities and what he was doing and how he was doing. I really appreciated how she kept us informed the whole time. I will definitely love to use her for all my traveling needs in the future.”
“Brooke was fantastic! She took both my dogs over the Christmas holiday. Super sweet and caring. Gave text updates with pictures and was flexible with pickup/dropoff. Would definitely recommend her!”
