“I wish there were more stars I could give to the most caring - highly knowledgeable and wonderful care givers! This is the best place my dog has ever stayed! We will be back! Thanks again -”

“Lori was able to accommodate a last-minute sitter request for our senior dog and we are so appreciative. Our little guy, Finn, didn’t make it easy for her either particularly during feeding times. Lori hung in there and worked with him patiently. There was a high level of communication throughout his stay and lots of updates and photos too. Thank you Lori!!”

“Kelly was fabulous. Our Lacey really enjoyed being at her home. She had plenty of room to run and play. I loved that Kelly sent us pictures all weekend so we could see how she was doing.”

“We moved to the area recently and searched for a new pet sitter. My husband and I could not be anymore happier with the care Karen and Sean provided to our Molly! Our Molly felt right at home on her first stay. Karen and Sean took Molly on walks and gave her plenty of playtime. Definitely will be using Karen again in the future ❤️”

“Jessica was great. She responded very quickly on very short notice. Felt very good dropping Leif off and Leif looked great picking him up. I would use this boarder again in the future.”

“Marvina was absolutely amazing and so accommodating! This was the longest I had left my rescue pup. (1 week) I was nervous for sure, however! That quickly went away as soon as I met her and saw the beautiful “summer camp for dogs ” that is her home! Her property is huge for the pups to run around and play. I had some last minute changes including being later on pick up time due to traffic. I got up to date pictures and reassurance that he was having a great time. I highly recommend treating your pup to this sanctuary! I will absolutely be using her services again and possibly work out a joint custody arrangement! 😂 My pup seems depressed now that he’s back home. Thank you again!!!”

“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 is a wonderful dog-sitter! She is very knowledgeable about dogs. We met in advance of my dog’s stay so Michele could ensure compatibility and understand his needs and routine. My dog has separation anxiety, and Michele was extremely caring and accommodating. She sends photos and messages frequently. This was my first experience using Rover, and I have booked another sitting with her for May 2026. Thank you, Mickey!”

“Michele and Paul were great! I was sent super cute pictures everyday! I love how they included Mayzie in everything they did while they had her! I will definitely use her again!”

“Leaving our dog, Mazie with Sandee gives us total peace of mind. She is incredibly reliable and communicative, sending us multiple updates and photos daily. It is comforting to see how happy and relaxed Mazie is in her care. We always return to a happy, healthy dog and feel completely confident that everything is taken care of. We're very grateful that we have found her and highly recommend her to anyone who needs a trustworthy and experienced sitter.”


“Alexa was the BEST! She went above and beyond my expectations. She constantly kept me updated, sending pictures and updates about my dog, Benny, throughout the day. She was born for this job and excels at it. She has a true love for your pet and treats them as her own. I would trust her with any of my pets and will definitely be using her in the future. She is wonderful and I couldn't recommend her more!!”

“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!”

“Eric is the best!! He took such good care of my guys Henry. He sent multiples updates and videos every day. He went above and beyond playing with him in his huge fenced yard with Henry’s ball which can be exhausting! I highly recommend him!!!”


“Kelly was wonderful and sent pictures throughout the day. We so appreciate her diligence in helping us with our dogs. One of our dogs requires daily medicine and an ointment. Kelly didn’t seem to have an issue with it and took wonderful care.”

“Sylvia was great with Tazzy. She was very thorough on our initial meet and great, and had her notes ready when we brought Tazzy for her weekend getaway. We felt very comfortable leaving her in good hands.”

“Oh my gosh, what a wonderful experience for my dog and myself. This was the first time that my dog, Caera, spent time (3 nights) with a non-family member. From the time I made the booking, we met briefly with Neena, and throughout her booking, Neena kept the lines of communication open, via text and pics! I absolutely would re-book with Neena, as Caera seemed to enjoy her stay; and I love the fact that I have found an outstanding alternate caregiver for Caera.”


“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.”
“ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!! Margit & Bill are amazing! We have never had our dogs with anyone other than family - well- Olivia & Riley immediately felt they had met new family members! Welcomed by their 3 sweet dogs, Margit and Bill took the time to explain their day to day schedule, all while our dogs jumped up on their laps and snuggled! I made multiple errors when booking our dates & times- they were very gracious, patient & flexible! Their son Noah, also a Rover sitter, stepped in at the end of the week and was as loving & communicative as his parents. Having daily communication and photos throughout the week was such a great way to stay in the loop and up to date on our pups. If you are looking for a place that will love your fur baby while you are away - Margit & Bill are THE BEST! Knowing we have a safe and loving home away from home for Olivia & Riley is such a great relief! Thank you Rover for employing Margit & Bill! They are worth their weight in gold! Deb A Frankford,DE”

“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. !!!!!”

“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Lori. This is our first time using Rover.com, we definitely were blessed with the BEST .. Lori went above and beyond in extraordinary circumstance while we had a blizzard in progress she made it to each appointed time and then came over extra visits. Lori went above and beyond to ensure our Evie had extra food & water since our area had travel restrictions in place during a 20" snow event. WE cannot say how much this meant while we were across the country. Truly, Lori is a Gem and we look forward to our "official" new kitty sitter when we travel. Thank you for loving on Evie like your own, it meant everything to Jeff & I.”


“Kelly kept our cats comfortable and calm while we were away. She tended to all of their special needs from specific feeding instructions and administering medication to providing them with quality play time. We will definitely use her in the future. She’s the purrfect pet sitter!”

“Felt absolutely at ease with leaving my 3 cats in the care of Patty. She was kind, pleasant, and trustworthy. She obviously loved being with my cats and kept me informed daily. Refreshing to find someone so caring and dependable!”

“Siara took excellent care of our cat. He seemed happy and relaxed we when got back which only happens when he hangs out with a sitter he is comfortable with. We will definitely be booking with Siara in the future.”

“Gina was nothing short of fantastic. So appreciate her making arrangements on short notice and taking terrific care of my two cats and my home while I was away. I will not hesitate to call on her again and recommend her to anyone in need of pet care.”

“Thank you Jacob for taking such good care of Tank. It’s the first time we’ve needed someone to care for tank while we were out so long. If I need the service again. I will absolutely book with you.”


“Rachel did a great job taking care of our cat Bandida! Bandida was in good spirits when we got home, I can tell she got enough attention and care while we were gone. Rachel was easy to communicate with and followed all instructions. Will be booking her again in the future. Thanks!”

“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!”


About: I’ve shared my life with cats for many years and understand that every cat has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. Having owned and cared for multiple cats, I know that great cat care is about more than food and litter boxes—it’s about creating a calm, stress-free experience while their owners are away. What sets me apart is my patience and ability to adapt to each cat’s needs. Some cats want plenty of attention and playtime, while others prefer quiet companionship and space. I’m comfortable caring for cats of all temperaments and understand the importance of respecting their boundaries while building trust. I also have experience administering medications, including injections, and am attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, litter box habits, and overall well-being. As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner, I know how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pets, and I will treat your cat with the same care and attention I give my own animals.
“Sierra was great. She is young and sweet and loves animals. Priced really well. She spent a lot of time with my cat and sent me photos. I recommend. She seems to be busy with other clients so book ahead!”

“This is the first time I've used Anna. She watched my 18 year old cat while I was out of town for a week. Anna was great. She got the cat to continue to eat while I was gone (he can be picky), gave him his medicine, and watched my house. Her communication was great. She sent me daily updates and pictures. I knew my sweet cat was in good hands. I'll be hiring her again next month. I would highly recommend Anna. "Thanks Anna! Appreciate 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.
“Marilyn was wonderful taking care of my cat. She kept me up to date and sent lots of photos. I appreciate how she cares very much. I definitely recommend her. Thank you Marilyn!”

About: I've grown up with dogs always surrounding me which has made me very comfortable taking care of dogs that range in size and age. My last family dog gave me experience caring for senior dogs and I recently adopted a puppy that I helped train. I have a passion for caring for animals, and have been responsible and loving of dogs since I was a kid! I am a sophomore in college and work part time in the evenings. I currently have free time in the mornings to help with pet care. I have a fenced yard for running around and play time and will also provide your dog plenty of walks as well. I have a dog who loves to play and will keep your dog company. I also have lots of dog treats, dog toys, and extra food bowls etc. so I am able to care for multiple dogs.
About: It was never quiet growing up with as many as four dogs in the house at a time (plus a cat, bird, hamster, turtles, geckos, and fish - and working at a local horse barn throughout high school and college). It’s not quiet now as my senior rescue dachshund loves to let you know when the mail lady has dared to leave a package on the porch. All that to say, I’m comfortable and have always been around a variety of pets. Since Dec. 2023, I’ve been a volunteer dog walker for Humane Animal Partners (HAP), in Rehoboth. There, I’ve walked countless dogs, ranging from ones who are ready to take on the world to ones who need to know you’ve got their back and need you to go slow. I have experience taking care of older dogs, my first rescue was 9 when I got him and my current rescue is 11 and a slow mover. I work from home during normal business and have some flexibility during the day depending on the day. I can do overnight stays during the work-week, but need to discuss your pet’s daytime needs to make sure it’s a good fit. I’m happy to give your dog the time and attention s/he needs to be as relaxed as possible while you’re away. Between having shy dogs of my own and volunteering at the animal shelter, I give dogs space and allow them time to sniff and warm up to me before we go out. I’ll take your lead as to things I need to know about what makes your dog’s personality shine.
About: I take this job very seriously, even though I’m overflowing with fun and love for your treasure. I’m professional, responsible, accountable and trustworthy. When you trust me with your pet, you trust me with your life. I’m a top-shelf dog companion, a certified dog therapy team member/volunteer & foster abandoned dogs & puppies. My professional expertise spans over 15 years. I’ve had dogs all my life, COULD NEVER live without them. My clients rely on me to house sit, walk, play, exercise, practice training, provide affection, massage, feed, administer meds & nurture EVERY POSSIBLE NEED/DESIRE they have. << I also want you to know that I dedicate my time with your pet(s) to the Memory of Einstein Rouk, the greatest love of my life.>> PLEASE NOTE: My professional service rates can be flexible, depending on individual circumstances. I’m solution-oriented, so I always discuss the specifics of your needs. We’ll figure it out! I am home full-time, with some remote projects. I have all day and night to pour TLC over your loved ones. When I’m hired to care for pets, that’s priority, it’s exactly what I do. I’m well-educated in canine behavioral training and certified by Alliance of Therapy Dogs (ATD) as a dog therapy team member/volunteer. I have a beautiful, sweet pup of my own (see description). I leave it up to you, as my client, to determine if her company would be beneficial for your treasure(s). I have pre-arranged care for her, when needed. Safety, security and comfort is first priority. I’m with your pup 24/7. They have my full attention and are NEVER out of my sight. I ALWAYS use leashes when outside. I follow your instructions. I’m exceptionally intuitive with pets; it’s easy for me to blend in with their habits and surroundings. I like to stick to their routines. I’m a confident leader who professes the importance of Trust, Respect, Love. I will assure you that your treasure(s) are in the VERY BEST hands, and that you made an extremely smart decision in hiring me. I am in constant communication with you during my stay. You’ll feel confident about my talents and skills and be able to REALLY relax when you’re away.

“Robyn was the purrrfect person to care for my sweet fur babies while I was gone for vacation. I have not been away from my babies for more than a night so a week away was a huge deal. She sent me pictures each morning with an update about the babies. She captured their personalities perfectly. My babies looked so happy in every picture and even shared snuggles and kisses with Robyn. I will definitely have Robyn take care of my babies again. I would highly recommend Robyn if you need someone to take care of your fur babies!”

“Janine is what I’ve been hoping for with regards to someone coming in and tending to my dogs. She’s trustworthy, timely, and cares sincerely for my Westies. What more could I ask for!!”

“My (huge) puppy River had a wonderful time at Kelly's house! Kelly was easy to communicate with, flexible, and accommodating. And she has backyard hens, which were a treat for River to watch! I highly recommend Kelly.”

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!
“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.”

“Our dog Milou liked Liane and her home immediately. He was right at home because he was allowed to sleep on her sofa. Thank you for taking care of Milou. The photos Liane sent during his stay were much appreciated.”

“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.”


“I had the pleasure to meet Debra and have her take care of my puppy. Debra was able to take care of my puppy at the last minute. Debra has a beautiful home with lots of space for the pets she cares. My puppy was relaxed and happy. Debra sent me pictures throughout the day. I will definitely book with her again. Debra is an excellent sitter.”

“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!”


“Martha was the best sitter for my dog that I could want. She let me and my dog, Parker, preview her place to see if we were compatible. She sent updates and pics showing how Parker was doing, and kept in touch. Parker came back calm and refreshed. A great experience I’d highly recommend.”

“Nicola is awesome! She takes such great care of my pupper. She was the first person I connected with on Rover for doggy daycare, and she quickly eased all my nerves. My dog, Roland, gets super excited on the mornings that he knows he’s going to visit her and Luna!”

“Rose and Ches needed a loving home for the day. Who else would I consider than Bob and Susan! They kept my girls safe and gave them lots of attention. Plus, Rose and Ches had a fun time,”
“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!”


“Have you ever had one of those days where you were just off, and everything went wrong? Well our family was having one of those *weeks*! Alexa was so understanding and just rolled with us and our chaos; from the last minute stay, to us being new to rover, forgetting to leave our leash- on and on. She was SO good with our emotionally complex German Shepherd (heehee) and gave her a home away from home to relax at. Overall, what an awesome experience.”

About: I have always loved having and caring for animals since I was a child. I have owned and cared for many dogs, cats and other small pets in my home my entire life, and I am a very responsible person. I have also been a pet sitter for family and friends whenever they needed care for their pets. I was a Nanny and cared for small children in their homes for many years and also any pets that were in their homes as well. I will treat your pets with love and respect and also care for them as you would want them to be cared for. I will be devoted to caring for your fur babies in your home or as needed. Thank you for considering me as your pet care sitter. Rover is my full-time job, so I will be able to provide longer care times for your pets. I am a very reliable and caring person, and will love and care for your fur babies like they are my own. I provide the best care possible in your home or mine, and I will follow all of the instructions that you have for your pet in a loving and caring way.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, both puppies and full grown! I love when I am able to let dogs see the world since they don’t have much time to. I currently am an online student, and work a part time 8-4. I have all of the time in the world for your pet. I am super flexible! I have a big unfenced yard, but have a fenced dog park 2 minutes from me. If your dog needs accommodations I can provide them for you.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 5 years old, usually 2 at a time, and am now a proud Dog Mom to Lola, who I bring with me when I am caring overnight for dogs. I am very good with training, and will happily follow your methods and keywords to reinforce good behavior with your dogs. I am also open to caring for cats, fish, hamsters, etc., as I have had various animals as pets over the years. For walks and house visits, my service radius is basically Long Neck, Oak Orchard, Harbeson, Angola by the Bay. For housesitting, I will travel up to 10 miles from Long Neck, and housesitting requests if my dog is permitted in your home as well, of course only when I am physically present. (She rides around in the car with me when weather permits, or stays with my roommate or parents in other cases.) I will only accept overnight assignments when I can bring my dog with me, so only work for 1 or 2 dog households. I currently work as a part-time consultant from home, and part-time as a waitress some evenings. I generally can provide potty breaks every 4 hours, as I have flexibility with my hours, but will be out of the house 3-4 times a week for up to 8 hours during the tourist season. I will care for your pets in your home, or on walks, according to your instructions. When caring for pets in your home, I am also willing to provide additional services such a light housekeeping, cooking or laundry, as time allows, sometimes for an addition fee. I was vaccinated against COVID-19, and have taken one booster. I will housesit when I will be staying overnight and can bring my dog with me as well, as she will stay with me on days I am not working.
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.
“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.”


About: I have had dogs since I was a kid. I enjoy there company and since retired now I could not ask for a better thing to do every day. The unconditional love for pets is the best medicine in life. I walk everyday about 5 miles so walking your pet is a added plus. I so enjoy the companionship. I babysit my Friends dogs frequently and dog walk another friends daily while she is at work. Pets tend to make you happy and smile because they always are. I find that just that makes your life happier. I would love to meet your pet and give them great walks and playtime while you are away. Looking forward in meeting you. Until we meet ruff. Chow
“Our dog had a wonderful day visiting Lara today. Lara was very knowledgeable and our dog was comfortable and happy with her. Our dog especially loved watching their chickens in their pen! I highly recommend Lara. We loved the photos and videos that she sent to us during her stay.”

“Kelly was flexible with our schedule and showed up on time for the walk and kept our dog company for the full hour. Left a very detailed note about what they did and lots of pictures!”

“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!”

“Kristin and Craig were prompt, courteous and clearly love dogs! We had a fantastic meet & greet the day before the dog walking appt and our golden just loved them! Will definitely use them in future!”

About: I worked at a dog kennel for 2 years, where i was in charge of feeding, potty breaks, medicine (if applicable), cleaning kennels, bonding time, bathes (wet/dry), and brushing. I have been around animals my whole life and have always had a pet, even if it was something small like a fish. I’m currently unemployed at the moment, so i’ll have abundant time to watch your beloved pets! I’m available anytime, any day with the exception of Wednesday, so feel free to reach out! I have a fenced in yard where i let my four dogs out freely to do their business and get their energy out, while I get their food bowls ready and check their water. As for watching dogs, I will follow the instructions provided to ensure the dog is safe and in routine for when the owner returns home. Whether the dog needs to be walked with a leash, or left in a crate for the night, none of these would be a problem
“Robyn was professional and communicated wonderfully, she was so easy to work with and I really appreciated her coming to meet Kelsey before booking services… THANK YOU Robyn and we would love to hire you again in the future!”


About: What sets me apart is the level of care, attention, and reliability I bring to every pet I work with. I truly treat every dog like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care. I’m very patient, attentive to behavior changes, and understand how important consistency and trust are for both pets and owners. I enjoy staying active, so I love making walks engaging and enjoyable while still tailoring the pace and activity level to each dog’s needs and personality. Communication is also very important to me, and I make sure owners feel updated and reassured every step of the way. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to walks, drop-ins, feedings, playtime, and giving pets the attention they deserve rather than rushing through visits. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate routines, playtime, and any special preferences or behaviors. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and supervision while also keeping their environment clean and safe. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away.
“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: My husband, kids and I love dogs! We have had dogs our whole life. Our dog Rusty is a Coast Guard dog so is used to having friends stay over while Mark's Coast Guard members are away visiting family. We love animals. We are dependable, fit, and loyal and work as a team to care for your sweet one. My husband and I both work part - time from home and work as team for Rover. We have one dog! We LOVE animals and are available to walk, board, or come to your house and care for animals. If a pet stays, we will put our pup, Rusty in his cage at night for safety. We do have 2 small children who love animals! We have a very large back yard that is not fenced but is private. Our neighborhood has very little traffic so we will walk your dog often! We will follow your routine. We will give your pet several long walks and take him or her out as much as you need. We have a big back yard if it's raining or inclement weather and your pet doesn't want to go out. We give lots of love and many walks to pets. We have a comfortable home and your pet can feel safe with us. We lookg forward to being in your home as well and making your pet feel secure.
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.
“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.”

About: With at least 15 years of experience I have a genuine love for animals. Now retired from 32 years in the public school system as a Speech/Language Pathologist, my days are filled with ample time for walks, ensuring your pets receive the attention and exercise they need. Compassionate and caring, I approach each furry friend with a heart full of warmth. I find joy in making our time together not just safe, but also fun-filled, ensuring a happy and healthy experience for your pets. I am a compassionate and caring individual who finds joy in providing love and attention to animals. My love for animals makes this more than a job-it's a fulfilling and enjoyable endeavor. Walking is not just a task but a joy for me, as it allows me to combine my passion for animals with staying active. My husband and I do not have any pets currently, as we lost our second corgi two years ago. It's been difficult, but we are searching for the next corgi to join our family! As a retiree, I've found that incorporating pet care into my daily routine brings a wonderful sense of purpose and joy. From morning walks to playtime in the afternoons, taking care of pets keeps me active, engaged, and surrounded by unconditional love. It's a fulfilling and rewarding way to structure my days, providing companionship for both me and my furry friends. I am generally available from 8am through 11pm. Most weekends are free for me, so don't hesitate to reach out if you need someone during the weekends. When caring for you pets in your home, I adhere to established routines, ensuring regular feeding schedules, administering medications if needed, providing ample playtime and exercise, and offering plenty of affection. I also maintain open communication with the pet owners to understand specific needs, preferences, and any special instruction. The goal is to offer personalized care that reflects the love and attention the pets receive in their own home, creating a stress-free and enjoyable experience for them.
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.

“I wish there were more stars I could give to the most caring - highly knowledgeable and wonderful care givers! This is the best place my dog has ever stayed! We will be back! Thanks again -”

“Lori was able to accommodate a last-minute sitter request for our senior dog and we are so appreciative. Our little guy, Finn, didn’t make it easy for her either particularly during feeding times. Lori hung in there and worked with him patiently. There was a high level of communication throughout his stay and lots of updates and photos too. Thank you Lori!!”


“Martha is WONDERFUL!! She was very professional and made sure we had an introductory meeting and my girls were comfortable in her home and with her sweetheart pup Danny. Martha also asked detailed questions to understand how to provide the best care. She was accommodating to my travel schedule and kept me posted on the girls throughout the trip. The girls were very relaxed and happy when I picked them up. I’m looking forward to working with Martha again in the future.”

“Kelly was fabulous. Our Lacey really enjoyed being at her home. She had plenty of room to run and play. I loved that Kelly sent us pictures all weekend so we could see how she was doing.”

“Jessica was great. She responded very quickly on very short notice. Felt very good dropping Leif off and Leif looked great picking him up. I would use this boarder again in the future.”

“Marvina was absolutely amazing and so accommodating! This was the longest I had left my rescue pup. (1 week) I was nervous for sure, however! That quickly went away as soon as I met her and saw the beautiful “summer camp for dogs ” that is her home! Her property is huge for the pups to run around and play. I had some last minute changes including being later on pick up time due to traffic. I got up to date pictures and reassurance that he was having a great time. I highly recommend treating your pup to this sanctuary! I will absolutely be using her services again and possibly work out a joint custody arrangement! 😂 My pup seems depressed now that he’s back home. Thank you again!!!”

“Michele and Paul were great! I was sent super cute pictures everyday! I love how they included Mayzie in everything they did while they had her! I will definitely use her again!”


“Alexa was the BEST! She went above and beyond my expectations. She constantly kept me updated, sending pictures and updates about my dog, Benny, throughout the day. She was born for this job and excels at it. She has a true love for your pet and treats them as her own. I would trust her with any of my pets and will definitely be using her in the future. She is wonderful and I couldn't recommend her more!!”

“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!”


“Kelly was wonderful and sent pictures throughout the day. We so appreciate her diligence in helping us with our dogs. One of our dogs requires daily medicine and an ointment. Kelly didn’t seem to have an issue with it and took wonderful care.”

“Christina and her family were great! We had to find a last minute sitter for our dog, Charlie, who we had never left with anyone but family before. We were nervous to leave her with someone we’d never met, but Christina eased all of our fears. We received multiple pictures every day of Char having a blast. She clearly had a great time when we picked and we would definitely have her stay with Christina again!”

“We couldn't be happier with the care our pups received from Cori! From the moment we dropped them off, we knew they were in good hands. Cori went above and beyond to make them feel comfortable and at home. We loved getting regular updates and adorable pictures, which reassured us that our furry friends were happy and well taken care of. Thank you, Cori, for your exceptional service and for treating our pups like family!”
“Collen was great. Wiyot is was so relaxed when I picked him up and he us usually a hyper type doodle. I would not hesitate to have Wiyot stay again. Thank you so much for a worry free visit.”

“Oh my gosh, what a wonderful experience for my dog and myself. This was the first time that my dog, Caera, spent time (3 nights) with a non-family member. From the time I made the booking, we met briefly with Neena, and throughout her booking, Neena kept the lines of communication open, via text and pics! I absolutely would re-book with Neena, as Caera seemed to enjoy her stay; and I love the fact that I have found an outstanding alternate caregiver for Caera.”


“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.”
“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. !!!!!”

About: I have experience with breeds extra small to extra large as we owned a jack Russell, chocolate lab, golden retriever, and mastiff/cane Corso mix at the same time. Currently, we have a 6 year old American bulldog named rosie who loves lounging and eating my daughter's toys. I'm a recently retired teacher with a ton of free time on my hands and a desire to have a more active lifestyle. I live in west Conshohocken and have no commitments outside of elementary school drop off/pick up. I would prefer to care for your pet in your home as I have a kindergarten aged child but will consider housing a pet for a short stay. We have a fencrd in grassy yard and 2 enclosed deck/concrete areas. I will provide background clearances from the state police, FBI, and Childline.
