About: My passion for animal care began at age 8 and spans over 13 years of hands-on experience. Through caring for personal pets across different life stages, I developed foundational knowledge in animal behavior, nutrition, wellness needs, and recognizing signs of illness. Currently, I work as a veterinary assistant at a general practice clinic, where I assist with routine examinations, diagnostic procedures, and treatment protocols while providing compassionate care to animals and educating pet owners. I am presently enrolled in the Veterinary Technology Program at Delaware Technical Community College, pursuing comprehensive training in animal health, medical procedures, and veterinary science. This formal education, combined with my professional experience and lifelong dedication to animal welfare, has developed my technical skills in diagnostic equipment operation, laboratory techniques, and advanced animal handling. My extensive background demonstrates a unique combination of natural compassion, developing technical proficiency, and unwavering commitment to animal care
“Keaton takes the best care of our kitties, including taking care of their medications,feeding them, and spending time with them. We appreciate all she does including great communication!”
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.
“Helen is now my go-to for drop in visits. She was communicative and thorough. She left a very detailed visit note complete with pictures. I am about to book more visits with her right now!”

“Sureya connected with my dog immediately. She got down to his stature level and rubbed and hugged him, at that point I knew he was in good hands.

About: I've been in love with animals since I was a baby. Growing up my family always had a menagerie of Fur-Babies. I started volunteering with the Humane Society when I was 12 and haven't ever stopped working with all kinds of Animals. From Alligators to Pot Belly Pigs to Zebras... From Akitas to Yorkies... From American Bobtail Cats to Tom Cats and everything in between, I've been blessed to have volunteered/fostered/adopted or raised almost every kind of pet you can imagine. My heart goes out to every fur-baby I meet and I will spoil, pamper and walk, run or jog with you baby like they were my very own. My home's Doggie Daycare and Critter Crash-Pad and Spa includes Luxury Lounge Pads and Comfy Crates and more Toys and Treats then PetSmart (well, not yet anyway). I'm ready for Doggie-Daycare, Daytime Drop-Bys or All Night Slumber Parties and pet sitting in your baby's own home while you'reaway. Rest assured there are no pets too big or too small for my happy extended family and ask anyone... I will love them all. I dont believe there is such a thing as an Ugly Baby... I can't wait to meet your family and give you all the help you need raising and caring for your four-legged piece of Fur-Covered Joy. I'm currently experiencing Extreme Empty Nest Syndrome... All of my own babies have grown-up, moved-on, flew the coop, and left me all by my lonesome! I can't believe I have an empty house for the first time in 25 years... And it sucks! With no more soccer games, birthday parties or trips to the Vet, my schedule is extremely flexible at the moment and I will do my best to fit your friend into my daily routine or drop everything to go check on your little guys at your own Home Sweet Home. (Just give me a minute to put down the oven mitts get the Home-Made Critter Cookies out of the oven). I live in a big, beautiful, historic home just outside of Dover with a huge yard, fenced in doggie play area, doggie pool, and a special doggie suite on the first floor filled with luxury doggie beds and comfy crates just right for any size fur-baby.

“Liz took great care of Cooper while I was away for a short trip. She did several drop in visits each day, kept me updated, and made the whole experience very easy. Cooper also needed medication, and she gave it without any issues. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands, and I’d definitely book with her again.”
“Kaitlyn was amazing with our golden retriever, Cooper! He’s 9 years old with some new health issues and meds that can be tricky to give, but she was so patient and gentle with him. We could tell she really cared, kept us updated, and made sure he was happy and comfortable. Highly recommend Kaitlyn!”

About: As a long time user of Rover services for my own pets, I understand the importance of finding a sitter you trust! Thank you for considering me. I’ve been professionally caring for other peoples pets off and on for years. Totaling a little over 10 years. My experience ranges from traditional homes with cats and dogs, to small farms with chickens and goats, to the more exotic birds and ferrets. I always request a meet and greet with my clients before hand so they can introduce me to their pet and walk through their care. I want you to be happy and worry free! For walking or visits in your home, I am comfortable with a hidden key or if you use a smart lock to remotely unlock. I am also familiar with Ring and other security systems so if you’d prefer to give me a guest code I can disarm the system. My schedule does vary a lot week to week, and even seasonally. Best to just ask me how things are currently. Some of my most loyal clients are nurses and really appreciate my flexibility. I only offer drop in visits. I do not offer boarding, house sitting, or daycare. Flexible work schedule, but this is a second job for me. Advance notice is preferable so I can accommodate your schedule and mine as well. My visit cards are always very detailed. They include multiple photos of course, but they go beyond that to include stories of our adventure of the day - from chasing lizards, to playing fetch, or sometimes just snuggling during an afternoon storm. You’ll feel like you’re at home reading about their day.
About: Hi! I’m Chloe. Animals have been my whole world for as long as I can remember. I spent 4.5 years working as a Veterinary Assistant, later became a Zookeeper, and graduated from the University of South Florida with my Bachelor’s in Integrative Animal Biology. I’ve worked with everything from tiny bottle babies to 150 lb senior dogs, and I love giving each pet the gentle, individualized care they need. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom to a sweet baby, two cats, and a small senior dog, so I have a very flexible schedule for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. Occasionally, I may need to bring my baby with me, so I do ask that your pets are kid-friendly. (She will remain in her car seat/stroller for visits, and she is too young to interact with any animals). I’m experienced in medication administration (oral and injectable), SQ fluids, and basic grooming tasks. I also offer nail trims, baths, and anal gland expression as simple add-on services. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always come first, and you’ll get clear updates, photos, and communication every step of the way. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m a stay-at-home mom with a very flexible schedule. I’m home most days, so I’m able to plan walks, drop-ins, and house-sitting visits around my day. Caring for animals has always been part of my lifestyle, so it blends seamlessly into my daily routine. I treat every pet’s home like their safe space. When I’m caring for your animals, I stick to their normal routines.. meals, litter cleaning, playtime, snuggles (if they like them!), and any medications they need. I keep everything tidy, make sure your pet feels secure, and give lots of reassurance and affection. I also send updates and photos so you feel connected while you’re away. Since I’m not taking boarding pets right now, all care is done in your home where your pet feels most comfortable. For day-care, I will ensure the pet is well taken care of in an stress-free environment. I do ask that your pets are up to date on vaccines AND cat/dog/kid friendly!

“Deanna and her husband were absolutely WONDERFUL. The care and attention that was given to Maximus was more than I could ever imagine. I am extremely pleased with the updates and photos since it was his first time staying with Deanna. It definitely put me at ease knowing he was in excellent care.”
“I really appreciate Kara boarding my pups at the last minute for the holidays. Kara took really good care of my pups. Kara kept me updated with lots of pics to keep me updated with what was going on in their day. The best part they provided transportation to and from my home.”
“Emily was great! We dropped our 1 year-old Hound-mix for a week while we went on vacation and couldn’t be more satisfied! She gave us constant updates and pics/videos to provide that piece of mind we were hoping for. Utley seemed to really love it there and we will be using her in the future for sure!”
“Jermaine was awesome! Our dog, Reese, is getting older and I feel like a traditional kennel is a little too loud & stressful for her. Leaving her with Jermaine gave us the peace of mind we needed. He was communicative and positive. She came home happy & healthy. We are very grateful and will absolutely use his services again”
“Brenda and her family were great! She has a big, fenced yard and her dog Gonzo is a great playmate. My dog can be timid in new surroundings but Brenda made sure Indy was very comfortable during his stay. I highly recommend Brenda for your dog-sitting needs!”
“We were extremely nervous with having our dog stay with strangers but meeting Jill and Thomas quickly changed our hesitation. As soon as you meet then you can tell they are dog lovers. We recieved photos all weekend and our dog was having a great time. We will definitely be returning as a client.”
“Kahjae was a great choice for watching Koda. He accepted my request at the last minute which I greatly appreciated. My Koda was a little naughty in his care and Kahjae graciously communicated and handled the situation and even continued caring for Koda 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽”
“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!!!!”
“Rackeem was the best! From his knowledge and expertise in handling dogs to his professionalism and consistent photos/updates. Thank you so much for watching my baby for the weekend. I will definitely be booking with you again. Marley seemed to really love his stay and made a new friend!”
