“Megan W and her family were fantastic! Not only was she a delight to communicate with, my dog clearly loved her and her home, The pictures she sent of my furbaby showed him undeniably smiling ear to ear. She is a little bit off the beaten path which is exactly why I chose her as we were on our way to Rehoboth. It was an easy and short detour to drop our little buddy off on our way. Her place has plenty of shade, fencing, and other pups for my dog to enjoy. I will definitely be rebooking with Megan W in the future!”
“Sylvia was a perfect fit for our dog. Daisy tends to be a little shy but was best friends with Sylvia within an hour.. if that. Sylvia was great at sending me pictures throughout the day of my furbaby. Daisy looked very comfortable and relaxed. When I went to pick her up, Daisy had already claimed Sylvia as her person and did not recognize me for about 15 seconds..which felt like a lifetime. Although I felt alitte jolted..it showed me that my dog really liked Sylvia and that..my friends..is priceless. Thank you once again for becoming my dogs... person.. while we are on vacation.”
“I can't recommend Kelly enough for dog boarding! My pup, Bailey, absolutely loves staying at her place. The big, fenced-in yard is a doggy paradise, and he has a blast running around and playing with Charlie, Kelly's dog. It's such a relief to know that Bailey is having a great time while I’m away! Kelly’s communication skills are fantastic. She keeps me updated throughout Bailey’s stay, sharing pictures and messages that always brighten my day. It’s so comforting to know my furry friend is in such caring hands. If you’re looking for a loving and fun environment for your dog, look no further than Kelly! Bailey can’t wait for his next visit! 🐾❤️”
“Mickey was a very gracious and thoughtful host for our year and a half old wire hair fox terrier. Mickey dealt with a small injury to Gracie‘s paw that occurred just before we dropped her off, keeping her front paw bandaged many times as Gracie decided she did not want to wear it. She also took Gracie for 2 1/2 mile walks, which is exactly what that breed needs. We absolutely recommend Mickey.”
“Mary Sue was wonderful! Our dog was so well taken care of and we received daily updates and photos. We joked that our dog was so happy she wouldn’t want to leave!”
“Lori did a great job taking care of our two dogs. She communicated regularly and provided pictures. She was very flexible and great to work with. The dogs seemed very happy and comfortable in her home.”
“My 2 girls were so happy with Sandee, i could not have asked for better care of my two spoilt pups! I am very grateful to Sandee for taking my girls for the afternoon, which freed us up to do the necessary things related to purchasing a home. I won't hesitate to go back to Sandee and trust her with my precious fur babies. Thank you Sandee!!!!”
“Marvina and her pups are amazing! Our dog, Koda, loves going there and always has a great time/comes home exhausted! Marvina communicates extremely well and sends plenty of pictures/updates regarding Kodas stay. We're so happy we found her!”
“Susan and Bob are great doggy caretakers and people. They certainly understand dogs and how to integrate multiple dog personalities into “doggy camp” in their home. We appreciate that they will make every effort to meet each dog’s individual needs. And together, Susan and Bob provide all the love that your dog needs while in their care. Lulu had a blast socializing with other pups and we had great peace of mind while on our vacation. 100% thumbs up!!!”
“Paula helped us out with a last minute booking, she was incredible! Quick and clear communication! From my mom: “she's amazing sent me about 4 pictures letting me know he was such a good boy and getting along with other dogs. I was so happy to have her do that for me. Really happy with her! Definitely gonna use her again” thanks Paula!!!”
“Michele who was recommended by a neighbor, was absolutely amazing and I had no worries at all leaving my two pups in her care. Her home was filled with toys, doggie beds and plenty of room to roam and play. I could enjoy my daughters beautiful wedding and not worry about them, which was priceless. I will definitely being using Michele's services again! Highly recommend!”
“We were very pleased with Cory, he kept me informed of how teddy was doing. Even though Cory has cats and teddy was not a fan of them he handle the situation great. !!!!!”
“Paige was great. She was available on short notice and was accommodating to a weird drop-off time due to bad weather. She was attentive to my animals needs and it was obvious my pup had a great time with her. She sent tons of pictures and videos and gave comprehensive daily updates. I would absolutely recommend this sitter and will be using her again in the future.”
“Nacho is a very selective Chihuahua who immediately adored Nicole. He exhibited none of the signs of anxiety he generally does when he meets someone new (or even someone he has met several times). He accepted Nicole as one of his special people and behaved as well (if not better!) for her than he does at home. Nicole sent us photos of Nacho napping, taking walks and looking completely adorable while he was in her care; we could see how content he was and were able to have peace of mind while we were traveling. Nacho will definitely be staying with Nicole the next time we need a dog sitter.”
“Carlie and her husband were an excellent pet sitters for our Jack Russell dog. They were very caring, reliable and accommodating to our schedule. We traveled from New York and be were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our pet because she was in good hands.”
“Christina is awesome!!! Our pups were treated like one of the family, we received pictures everyday and had no worries. We trust Christina and feel fortunate to find a home away from hone for our fur babies!!”

“You are simply the best! Harley looks forward to drop in visits with you! Thank you for always going above and beyond and staying well past your time limit to give her some extra loving!”
“Jacob did an outstanding job caring for our rabbit, Bunny, while we were away. He was incredibly communicative, responded quickly to every message, and always arrived on time, staying for the full visit. He had no trouble giving Bunny her medication, sent thoughtful updates and great photos after each visit, and made us feel completely at ease. We also came home to everything spotless and exactly as we had left it, which we really appreciated. We wouldn't hesitate to book Jacob again and will absolutely be asking him to watch Bunny the next time we travel!”
“Marilyn and Mark did a wonderful job watching my cat and Marilyn stayed at my house while I was away. Highly recommend and would definitely ask them again. Thanks to both of you.”
“Rachel did a wonderful job taking care of my cats while I was out of town. My cats even came out to meet her and loved her. Very professional and reliable. I will definitely call her again when I go out of town!”

“Siara was a wonderful sitter for our cat. She gave timely updates and shared cute photos. We did our meet and greet virtually as a video chat and she understood all of the directions, even the medications.”
“Patty is fabulous! We did not expect her to see much of our cats, as they’re quite shy. Not only did she see them, she was able to pet and give the scratchies! We received pictures from every visit. She went above and beyond and we highly recommend Patty’s care for your Kitties!”
“We felt perfectly comfortable leaving our home and our cat in Christina's care. He is a real challenge of a cat, Chris made sure he was cared for daily and kept us updated on his activities ?. Will book again!”
About: Growing up I have always lived helping others and even helping animals. As a young kid, I grew up surrounded by all kinds of animals. Although my college plan is to become a special education teacher, I have always had a passion for animals. I really enjoy giving animals a voice and creating special bonds with them. Over the years my family has rescued over 8 animals including dogs and cats. I have been dog sitting for 3 years now for family friends and I am willing to do it for anyone in need. Animals have always left an impact on my life and I hope I do the same to them. I am not doing this for the money but to help many animals in need, as well as their owners. I really hope I am able to give endless love to you pet or pets. Thank you.
About: I have had cats as pets of my own my whole life. I tend to think I can be a bit of a cat whisperer. I love to follow their lead and allow them the play or space that is needed. I feel comfortable cleaning a littler box and can handle multiple cats at a time. I am also comfortable administering some medication and handling senior cats.
About: My family adopted our first cat when I was 10 years old, and caring for cats has been a passion of mine ever since. For the past four years, I have provided cat-sitting services for a variety of families and have experience caring for households with anywhere from one to four cats. I am comfortable managing multiple cats at once and have experience administering medications when needed. My goal is always to ensure cats feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: I have three dogs at home! Lucy, Scotch and Sage! I’ve had dogs in my life since I was 8 (and I am now almost 24)! Well I’ve been around dogs since I was born because my grandparents love dogs too but I was 8 years old when my mom bought our first dog. Then after that they just kept coming haha! Everyone knows me as the dog lover because I really do think they are the cutest animals ever! I work from home so I’ll be able to be with the dogs at all times. I won’t ever leave the dog alone for more than two hours. I will always be by the dog and giving it lots of love! Feeding is as instructed and take the dog out every 2-3 hours.
“Leanne is a wonderful sitter. She maintains a regular schedule with our older cat, which is so important to her. Leanne has been diligent and caring. We have had Leanne two times now, and I hope we'll be able to her many more times. My husband says, "Leanne is the best!"”

“Megan was great with Ember! We were down for a couple of days on vacation and she was incredibly flexible with us which made it so much easier! We were able to take Ember places dogs were allowed, but were also able to go and do our own thing with the help of Megan! Will definitely be visiting her again when we come back in the fall for vacation!”
“Jessica is amazing with Fur babies. Very accommodating and professional. My Tug love going there. Its always a great day whenever he spends his day with her. Her dog Tashi is very good with other dogs. Tug's favorite retreat is his stay at Jessica's. Highly recommended 👌”
“I cannot say enough great things about Michele! She has given me my life back! I have two little rescues that are highly reactive and do not like anyone, so consequently I have been unable to leave them. After talking with Michele and getting a sense of her experience and patience with rescue.dogs such as mine I decided to give her a try...and it went beautifully! My dogs had a great time with her and loved her...and cannot wait to go back again! Michele is truly not just very much a professional but is gifted with animals as well.”
“Thank you Nicola for having Nova for daycare. Nova always comes home well worn out when he stays with Luna and Nicola. He always has fun. Nicola and her family are very nice and I am happy Nicola is available when I need a sitter. I always know that Nova is well taken care of.”
“This was my first time using Rover and there were a large number of choices. I chose Bob and Susan because of their stated experience and the very positive reviews. I was very happy with the care and attention they paid to PJ for his doggy daycare. They gently introduced him to some other doggy guests of his size and he had a ball and plenty of activity. When I am back in the area, I"ll return here.”
“So glad to have found Christina to take care of our dog Lucky during our recent trip to the beach. She's warm and friendly and took care of Lucky as if he were her own. She communicated promptly and clearly. She was so flexible with our vacation schedule and sent us adorable pictures of Lucky throughout the day. I'd definitely rebook with Christina, no question.”
About: I have been around dogs since I can remember. I have two lovely doodles that love new friends. I have taken dog CPR along with other pet training certifications. I am a teacher looking for a fun Summer side job. Since my son is away at college, I have plenty of time on weekends. I have a fenced yard with plenty of toys. There is also plenty of space in the home that is very doggie proof since I have two doodles of my own.
“Communication from Marilyn from the get go was great. Mark ended up watching our Berner, Nessie, for the day and things went great. Wonderful family to care for our dog! Will reach out again when visiting my parents at the beach.”
“Having just moved here from out-of-state, I was so pleased to get connected with Martha. Pippa was at ease with Martha and I was able to have a few hours to take care of some personal business knowing she was in good hands. I look forward to using Martha's services in the future. You can feel confident leaving your beloved pup in her care.”
“Michele was awesome, put both Sadie and me at ease immediately. Sadie hadn’t stayed with a sitter for over 3 years but she was calm and affectionate with Michele and I’m not sure she wanted to leave! I’ll definitely use her services again.”
“Liane is AMAZING! I have never used a service like this before and I was so nervous leaving my boy. She was so kind and trustworthy. She sent me pictures of him playing and was so gracious answering my texts. If I could give 10 stars, I would. I can’t thank her enough!”
“Great communication! Clean and appropriate environment. Despite Axe's terrible anxiety, he loved Cory and never fussed one bit. We will definitely be using Cory's daycare again!”
About: Taking care of animals brings me so much joy! I live at the beach and love walking dogs through my neighborhood to the beach. I am comfortable controlling big, strong dogs on walks. I grew up with 2 dogs and have always loved animals. My sister is a veterinarian and has taught me a lot. She is on call if your animal has any health issues. I’m in a career transition right now, so your business so greatly appreciated ❤️ I am a yoga instructor working part time, so I have a lot of time for your pets! My typical day is: wake up early, walk the dog I’m caring for, feed the pup, let out again, then teach yoga. I’m gone for about 3 hours then return home for a long walk with the pup :) then we relax at home as I typically work on my computer. Your pup will be the only dog in my house - he or she will have all my love and attention! I am happy to have your pet sleep in my bed and lay on my couch if they want! I love walking and have plenty of have time for long walks. I have training on how to safely handle reactive dogs on leash. I do not have a fully fenced in yard, but am happy to take your dog to the dog park if that would be helpful to release energy! The beach is also a short walk away :)
“Neena responded right away and was available and gracious in regard to my last minute request! Neena was great at communicating and Daisy was happy and well cared for upon pick up! Would definitely book here again!”
“Jacqueline and William were great! We made a last minute reservation and they accommodated our drop off and pickup times which needed to be flexible since we were going kayaking and uncertain how long it would take. Will definitely use them again the next time we are Trap Pond.”
About: I absolutely love animals- both my own and other families pets! I moved to Lewes a few years ago from New Jersey and love being active outside and by the beach. My family and I adopted a dog a few years ago and she has brought so much joy to our family. I am very flexible with my daily schedule and around on most weekends and holidays. I am available mornings, afternoons and evenings as well as overnights. I am good with medications and open to any specific needs your pet might have. My cat and dog both have kidney disease, so I have great experience with both oral and injectable medications.

About: I have had the pleasure of caring for a variety of breeds of all ages for 30+ years. My pet sitting services are UNIQUE as I offer a premium experience focusing on personalized care and comfort by servicing ONLY 1 PET/FAMILY at a time in my CAGE-FREE spacious home. Outside of the basics of food and water, I believe pets should be provided with plenty of love and attention as well. For young dogs, I provide ample playtime and exercise to keep them mentally and physically healthy. As senior dogs may have individual needs in terms of exercise, diet, and medical care, I am comfortable and knowledgeable in addressing those needs. I offer flexible scheduling, transportation and light grooming at reasonable rates. I have come to the reality that it is possible to make a living doing what I love the most! 🐾Please note, if a desired date/time appears unavailable, reach out as adjustments can sometimes be made.🐾 By providing a CAGE-FREE home-like environment and my one-on-one attention, I cater to their specific needs, dietary requirements and preferences. I aim to minimize stress from unfamiliar surroundings and interactions with other pets reducing the risk of illness and injury unlike traditional kennels/boarders. This is particularly beneficial for anxious or shy pets, helping them feel safe and secure in your absence.

“Nicola went above and beyond with my crazy dog mom requests! She sent me pictures every single walk and made sure my spoiled fur baby who likes to go on hungry strikes when we leave for any period of time, had plenty of time to eat her food! 10/10 would absolutely book Nicola again for any reason!!!”

“I could not be happier with a dog care person than I am with Paula. She's dedicated, completely reliable and my miniature schnauzer fell immediately in love with her. (Not his typical behavior)”
About: I’ve had pets for as long as I can remember. I’ve had the privilege of caring for a wide variety of animals including cats, dogs, birds, bunnies, fish, and mice! I love all animals and I believe they all deserve the best possible care we can provide! I’m currently a stay at home mom with two adult children and one child in kindergarten! I will have plenty of time to play with and care for your fur (or feather or scale or what have you!) babies! I have a small dog and a cat that are friendly and would get along well with other animals. I enjoy walking pets and cuddling as well!
“Siara was the best! She was very attentive to our fur babies' needs and responsive! She went out of her way to make sure they received the best treatment while my family was away. I would 100% recommend her in the future! Thank you, Siara!”
“We are so grateful for Sherrie and her willingness to help us out last minute! She braved two out of three days walking our dog in the pouring rain, and still managed to make it fun for our rain-disliking girl. Our dog absolutely adored Sherrie from the beginning, which is rare for our dog as she is slightly anxious around new people. Sherrie kept us updated with great communication, which gave us so much peace of mind. She is extremely reliable, caring, and clearly an animal lover. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!”
“Paige was outstanding! I had to be out of town for the day and asked her to do two drop-ins on a Sunday. Maya loved her! Will definitely hire Paige again in the near future!”
About: FYI--Recently retired from the Federal Government. I did a Katrina mission to offer counseling to those who lost their homes. However, I was asked to volunteer in a pet shelter because the pets were abandoned due to the crisis at hand. It was one of the hardest things I have ever done. I figured I could do it, if I didn't look the pets straight in the eye (to prevent the heartbreak and the tears from flowing). Well, one little doggie who was in the corner of her pen shaking and shivering, grabbed ahold of my ankle as I was walking out of her pen (after cleaning it and feeding and watering her) and she wouldn't let go. She dragged her little butt along the concrete flooring as I tried to close the gate. I broke down into tears immediately and said "okay, I'll take you home with me and the cat in the pen next to you". Yes, I rescued them both... Or should I say they rescued me..from Empty Nest Syndrome. They have brought so much love into my life! My Mississippi Mud Pie (Boston Terrier) has now gone to Doggie Heaven and I want to provide love to other's pets in honor of her memory. My schedule has recently opened up more since retiring from the Federal Government, and I have a lot of time to devote to other's pets and animal care. When a dog is in my care, I provide very frequent walks and cater to your pet throughout the entire time they are with me. I like keeping animals happy and content. I provide a safe, trusting and caring environment. I am very nurturing and provide excellent care and attention. I am very attentive of animals needs.
About: I have been taking care of my families pets since I was 13. Spending time with animals is one of the best ways to spend a day, especially when meeting new furry friends! I am currently working a serving position over the summer during my summer break from college, so my schedule can fluctuate, but mainly revolves around evening shifts. I am very good at communicating when I am available or not, and am totally okay with dedicating my days off to spend time with your pets! Preferably, I would like to care for animals in your own home, as I have two cats at home who are okay with other cats, but not so much bigger/more active dogs. I have a car so I am able to transport your pets and I to and from walks, homes, etc.
About: I have had a variety of pets of all ages with some needing special care. I enjoy walks, playtime and snuggles from fur babies. I have flexibility and can work with your schedules to give the proper care to your pets. I am currently working a casual job and would like to fill more of my time with what brings me joy which are animals. I only have my older cat but enjoy dogs of all sizes, other cats; I have fed fish, small reptiles, and horses. I do travel but have flexibility in my schedule. I have a fenced in yard and a home where I can close off play areas if needed. I can provide litter boxes separately if needed and clean out as needed. I am happy to listen to your requests and concerns and follow your routine for your pets. I am comfortable going to your home where your pets are ‘at home’ and walk, feed and play with them in their own setting.
About: Hi! I split my time between Greensboro and Rehoboth! Weekends in Rehoboth, middle of the week in Greensboro, with some flexibility! I have lifelong experience and deep love for animals. I’ve been caring for animals my whole life, including my own three dogs – one of whom is a senior and two other high energy dogs, including a Whippet and a Jack Russell blend – along with two indoor/outdoor rescue barn cats. With a large property for exercise and play, I understand the unique needs of different breeds and personalities. My experience extends beyond my own pets, as I’ve been trusted to care for others beloved animals for years. I’m passionate about providing attentive and reliable care, ensuring every pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I am a teacher and will be gone from my home 8 hours of the day. I can be available to come let pets out for a potty break in the middle of the day some days. I am free on weekends all day. If your pet is crate trained they will be on the same schedule as my own! I have cared for many animals, boarding, walking/running, and general care. My pets are allowed on furniture for snuggles and free roam of the house, to explore and move! I have two high energy dogs that need to go on runs daily. I am fit and we are on a dirt road and a large property so getting exercise is easy! My dogs have their own bedroom and actual bed, but are also crate trained for during the day. They are very friendly, love other animals and our cats!
“Chelsea was awesome. 👏 She paid careful attention to Winston and was patient with him as he was a bit reluctant to walk with a new person. She followed all my instructions and took care of our baby. Will use her anytime I need help with Winston in the future.”

“Megan W and her family were fantastic! Not only was she a delight to communicate with, my dog clearly loved her and her home, The pictures she sent of my furbaby showed him undeniably smiling ear to ear. She is a little bit off the beaten path which is exactly why I chose her as we were on our way to Rehoboth. It was an easy and short detour to drop our little buddy off on our way. Her place has plenty of shade, fencing, and other pups for my dog to enjoy. I will definitely be rebooking with Megan W in the future!”
“I can't recommend Kelly enough for dog boarding! My pup, Bailey, absolutely loves staying at her place. The big, fenced-in yard is a doggy paradise, and he has a blast running around and playing with Charlie, Kelly's dog. It's such a relief to know that Bailey is having a great time while I’m away! Kelly’s communication skills are fantastic. She keeps me updated throughout Bailey’s stay, sharing pictures and messages that always brighten my day. It’s so comforting to know my furry friend is in such caring hands. If you’re looking for a loving and fun environment for your dog, look no further than Kelly! Bailey can’t wait for his next visit! 🐾❤️”
“Lori did a great job taking care of our two dogs. She communicated regularly and provided pictures. She was very flexible and great to work with. The dogs seemed very happy and comfortable in her home.”
“Marvina and her pups are amazing! Our dog, Koda, loves going there and always has a great time/comes home exhausted! Marvina communicates extremely well and sends plenty of pictures/updates regarding Kodas stay. We're so happy we found her!”
“Susan and Bob are great doggy caretakers and people. They certainly understand dogs and how to integrate multiple dog personalities into “doggy camp” in their home. We appreciate that they will make every effort to meet each dog’s individual needs. And together, Susan and Bob provide all the love that your dog needs while in their care. Lulu had a blast socializing with other pups and we had great peace of mind while on our vacation. 100% thumbs up!!!”
“Michele who was recommended by a neighbor, was absolutely amazing and I had no worries at all leaving my two pups in her care. Her home was filled with toys, doggie beds and plenty of room to roam and play. I could enjoy my daughters beautiful wedding and not worry about them, which was priceless. I will definitely being using Michele's services again! Highly recommend!”
“We were very pleased with Cory, he kept me informed of how teddy was doing. Even though Cory has cats and teddy was not a fan of them he handle the situation great. !!!!!”
“Paige was great. She was available on short notice and was accommodating to a weird drop-off time due to bad weather. She was attentive to my animals needs and it was obvious my pup had a great time with her. She sent tons of pictures and videos and gave comprehensive daily updates. I would absolutely recommend this sitter and will be using her again in the future.”
“Carlie and her husband were an excellent pet sitters for our Jack Russell dog. They were very caring, reliable and accommodating to our schedule. We traveled from New York and be were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our pet because she was in good hands.”
“Christina is awesome!!! Our pups were treated like one of the family, we received pictures everyday and had no worries. We trust Christina and feel fortunate to find a home away from hone for our fur babies!!”
“Lacey was amazing with my fur babies, even my 55lbs of crazy lol. They both came home happy and calmer than I even expected, she needs to tell me her secret to calm my crazy girl lol. I will only be using Lacey for my fur babies care in the future!!”
“Neena was responsive, flexible, and helpful at all times. We booked Neena as we were taking a trip away from home and were boarding our two dogs for the first time. We found the whole experience straightforward and she went the extra mile to make sure they were both comfortable and happy during their stay. We would absolutely recommend Neena to anyone looking for quality pet care!”
“We used Samantha for the first time to watch our little guy, Ollie, and she was everything we were hoping for — and then some! From the start, her communication was prompt and reassuring, which immediately put us at ease. It was clear she has a genuine sense for an animal's needs, and Ollie took to her right away. She sent daily updates throughout our time away, including an adorable holiday-themed photo that honestly made our day. Knowing Ollie was happy, comfortable, and in great hands made all the difference. You can just tell when your pet is at ease, and he absolutely was. We will 100% be rebooking with Samantha — no question about it. If you're looking for a pet sitter who truly cares and goes the extra mile, look no further. Thank you, Samantha — Ollie had a wonderful time! 🐾”
“We had a great experience with Jacqueline, my dog enjoyed his stay. Jacqueline sent updates and pictures throughout the stay. We will definitely use her again in the future.”
About: I have had several dogs in my life through their entire life span. I recently lost my soul dog. Not ready to get another but because they bring me so much joy, I would love to take care of others. I have the time because I am retired. I also know the feeling of worrying that they are in the best care! I can assure you that they will be! I am retired for the most part. I teach yoga a few hours a week but I have plenty of time. I can take your dog for several walks, AM or PM. I do not have a fenced in yard but do have a very long leash to allow freedom in the yard. I also live in a great neighborhood with lots of dogs. My dog recently passed but we used to take lots of daily walks and had lots of interactions.
“Martha was so wonderful and loving with my dog Precious. Martha was totally flexible when my plans changed close to the booking date, and accommodated my request. I would highly recommend Martha to watch your pet at any time.”
“Liane was exceptional! She took great care of Bentley! She was extremely responsive and checked in with me every day - I knew Bentley was in great hands! Bentley has several medicines that he has to take and she handled it with no issue. I would definitely book with Liane again!”
