“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.”
“Brooklyn was wonderful to my two dogs. I was in town for business and traveling with my dogs. She took great care of them, played with them all day and made them feel comfortable stopping for the weekend in Delaware. I was traveling from GA to CT and this allowed me to relax would use her again when I return to town.”
“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!!!!”
“There are not enough kind and positive words we can write regarding Mary Sue and the excellent and loving care she provided our dog, Ollie. As first time dog parents needing a boarding service, we were so fortunate to find Mary Sue on Rover. She sent detailed reports and photos each day during the week that we looked forward to and appreciated so much. Certainly helped put our minds at ease. Ollie most definitely enjoyed himself and we certainly plan to have him stay with Mary Sue again.”
“Brooke watched our boy Doc for a week while we went on vacation. It was super convenient since she only lives two miles from us! We are grateful she was able and willing to board him in her home. Brooke is very nice, friendly, and we will definitely book with her again if needed!”
“Sylvia was an incredible sitter! The moment my husband and I met her we knew she’d be great. She has such a lovely personality and you can tell how much she cares about animals. She made sure to keep us updated on how Trigger was doing and sending pictures, he looked so happy in all of them. When we picked him up, he was just happiest old pup. I most definitely recommend Sylvia to anyone that needs a sitter!”

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.”

About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and got my first dog at 10 years old. Caring for him taught me responsibility, patience, and the deep bond we share with our pets. I have over 8 years of experience caring for senior dogs and 5+ years providing dog sitting services for private clients. Many families trust me repeatedly with their pets because I treat every dog as if they were my own. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs — from playful pups who love walks and attention to more relaxed dogs who just want companionship and cuddles. Small and medium dogs have mostly been under my care and only some larger breeds. My goal is always to keep your dog happy, safe, and stress-free while following their normal routine as closely as possible. I understand how important consistency is, especially for senior dogs. I’m reliable, attentive, and communicative, and I know peace of mind matters when you’re away. I provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, overnight care, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to help. Creating a calm, loving environment is very important to me, and I want both you and your pet to feel completely comfortable. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I work from home on my own time so I am available pretty much daily unless I have other clients in my schedule. Requests in advance are very much appreciated. Services in your home will be as the you request, I aim to please you and your pet! I live in a tiny home that shares the fenced in backyard with my in laws who have an older toy poodle, a Chorkie and a calico cat who I will keep separate from your pet if you’re looking for daycare and overnight stays. My home is small so overnight and day cares are limited for very large dogs.
About: As a cat owner myself and a former veterinary assistant, I'm experienced caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and medical needs. I'm comfortable administering medications, caring for senior cats, monitoring health concerns, maintaining litter boxes, and working with shy, anxious, or fearful cats who need extra patience and understanding. Whether your cat wants constant attention or prefers their space, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away.
“Jennifer was a dream sitter. My cats were well looked after. She even messaged me to see if there were any interactive toys she could play with! My cats have a difficult medication schedule, and she followed my instructions like a pro! Very happy to recommend Jennifer!”
About: I have had multiple cats and dogs growing up. My parents still have multiple cats and dogs and I currently own two cats.

About: Hey my name is Brooklyn! I have been around pets my whole life and have a very deep love for all animals! I am very lenient with pets, they are allowed on furniture and they won’t be crated unless that is your preference. I have two mini dachshunds at home, they are very friendly and enjoy having other pups over! I have a very flexible schedule!

About: Hi, I'm Paige! Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is something I truly love. I grew up with dogs and cats, and my parents currently have two 100+ pound Rottweilers, so I'm very comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. We also bred our female Rottweiler and raised 12 healthy puppies, giving me hands-on experience caring for dogs through every stage of life. For more than 15 years, family, friends and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, administer medication and care for their pets while they're away. I've cared for dogs, cats, birds and small animals, and I treat every pet like they're part of my own family. I know how important it is to find someone you trust, so I'll keep you updated with plenty of photos and regular communication while your pet is in my care. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved until you're back home. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine! I work remotely on Mondays and Fridays, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime and drop-in visits throughout the day. On Tuesdays through Thursdays, I work in the office during the day but am available before and after work, as well as for overnight stays. No matter the day, I make it a priority to provide dependable care, stick to your pet's routine and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages. I will leave your place better than I found it and leave your dog happier than before! My dogs at home have been crate trained and I am willing to crate your fur babies as well! Just leave me specific instructions on what you need for the day and you will come home stress-free!
About: I have volunteered at the SPCA for three years, taking care of small dogs, large dogs, and even cats. I even take care of people's pets in my neighborhood. Currently fitting pet care into my daily routine is no problem at all. I am a part time college student but I don't go back until the winter. I stay at home full time so I will be able to spend all day with your pet. As far as pets go, I have a very friendly lab mix named Kaya and a cat named Snickers. I also have two leopard geckos named Mushu and Yoshi. Kaya is fed twice a day, morning and evening. And Snickers is a grazer so he eats whenever he wants. I have a fenced in yard which Kaya adores. Whenever other dogs come over I let them out into the yard so they can run around and play. The yard is about half an acre and the fence is 4 and a half feet tall.
About: I have been a reliable person to check on your kitty’s. I love to groom. I can brush ,nails , some cats I can even bathe depending if they want to not be to crazy lol. I have done sitting animals for over 5yrs. Have grown up with cats, dogs most of my life. I love to animal sit and grooming in hope to start my own grooming van. I make sure litter box’s are clean, food bowel, water bowels. And I love all animals, I watch them as if they where my own.
“Sabrina was wonderful! We had to make a very last minute request to feed our kitties and Sabrina came to the rescue. Our senior kitty is very shy and often won't come out or even eat for people she's not familiar with, but she did for Sabrina! We were also provided with numerous photos, updates, and a very detailed write up of the visit. We will certainly be reaching out when we need services in the future!”
About: I have several years of experience with cats and experience with a wide variety of temperaments, breeds, and needs. I can handle scooping litter boxes, feeding, playing, snuggling, whatever they may need. I can also handle cats that are not super accustomed to people and are more trusting with other cats.
“This was our first time using Rover, and Luie made it an absolutely amazing experience! He took such wonderful care of our kitties and completely put our minds at ease. Our biggest concern was making sure our oldest cat, Skittles, received medication, but Luie was able to administer it successfully and without any problems. He sent us lots of pictures and regular updates while we were away. It felt incredibly reassuring to know our cats were truly cared for so we did not have to worry at all. Luie is a fantastic sitter, and we highly recommend him to anyone!!”
“Kayla was great! Muffin was well taken care of, pictures were adorable, and peace of mind was priceless. I would definitely recommend Kayla to care for your pet and have her care for Muffin again. Thanks Kayla!!❤️”
“Hannah definitely took care of my babies as if they were her own. My crew was very comfortable with her and loved her. They needed medication and she was definitely comfortable giving them their meds. I will definitely book her again in the future!”
About: I have more experience with dogs, but I still have plenty of cat experience too. I did a lot of rescue work in the past which included tube feeding kittens, administering meds, and caring for very elderly cats. My own cat is a 14 1/2 rescue who was a declawed outdoor cat that no one thought I could convert into an exclusively indoor cat. But now you'd never even know he ever lived outside. I also have 3 grand kitties. Most of the cats I've had have been raised with dogs, so they are a little different. It seems that they are ever so slightly more flexible than cats raised alone or with other cats. So I have to consider my actions based on where the cat is at. If it's just sitting there and ignoring each other, that's what we'll do. If they want to cuddle and head bump, we'll do that too. I completely understand that unlike dogs, cats pretty much control the agenda.

“I initially thought Trales might not want to come back home with me, especially since Morgan, along with her husband and their two precious fur babies, spoiled him so much. Morgan was incredibly thoughtful and made me feel completely at ease while she was caring for Trales during the times I couldn’t. Her regular updates, photos, and notes about his outdoor potty activities kept me well informed and helped me stay on track with his routine once I picked him up. As a new resident in Delaware, I truly feel lucky to have found Morgan as Trales’s care provider.”

When I am back in the area, I"ll return here.”
About: I grew up on retired farm land, so I gained lots of experience raising and training several dog breeds, all sizes and ages. We rescued and fostered several dogs, cats, and rabbits over the years. As an adult I started fostering dogs and rabbits myself. Until recently, I was fostering primarily dogs. I have 2 shepheards and 2 pitbulls permanently placed in my home, as well as a dwarf rabbit. 2 of my dogs are trained and registered as service animals. I have a very adaptable home with lots of indoor/outdoor play space, as well as space to be separated as needed. I are very particular about keeping our food and water bowls clean with washing every day. I am happy to love you fur babies! There is rarely ever a time my pets are home alone. They all free roam and coexist peacfully, so I have a very calm house usually. We have a go out/walking schedule we follow to ensure proper exercise, as well as a secure feeding routine. My fiancé works full time, so I am the full time caretaker of the animals. Stranger pets in my home are introduced calmly and carefully, as to maintain a safe environment for all. Higher energy dogs meet my shepheards first, calmer animals meet my old boy first. My animals stay leashed infront of guests until a calmness has been reached. I have separate feeding bowls for all animals, water is communal as to resist territorial behavior. If calmness can not be reached, I have space to separate any unrully animals as needed. As a stranger in another animals home, I aproach very calmly and happily to respect their space. I am very adaptable to understanding and applying a feeding/walking schedule. Play time is always important, and my favorite part of the day! Lots of play time and pets are given to fur babies.
“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.”

About: Hello, My name is Kennedy! Since I was young, I always had a four-legged friend around which also came with a lifelong love for all animals. I started helping out neighbors and family with dog walking and drop-in visits and always received excellent feedback. I started getting more involved with the local Humane Societies around my area in my downtime and I truly loved every minute. I would volunteer with various rescues and help out with adoption events whenever possible. I am committed to providing your pets with personalized care to meet their needs when you can't be there. If you are in need of a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter, I am here to help :) I am a teacher and with the school year almost over, I have June, July & August available for bookings so reserve your spot today :) I currently have open availability on weekends! I currently live in an quiet & safe community. We do live in an apartment and take our dog out every 3-4 hours as well as make sure daily walks happen regardless of the weather. She is hypoallergenic. It would be better to stay at the client's home since my partner has pet-related allergies.
About: Mature, responsible, caring female who has a dog, has taken lessons in caring for, interacting with and directing dog behavior and activities. Your dog will be a welcome guest in our home. As a retired yet very active, responsible female I am able to be meet the needs of dogs and to offer dog care on a flexible basis. I have a large, unfenced yard including a run line, well suited to walking dogs. For owners whose dogs are trained to walk on a leash and who desire more extensive exercise for their pet, I also offer longer walks through our quiet neighborhood.
About: I have 2 dogs and a cat. My dogs are Angus (an 11 year old Bugg (pug/boston terrier mix) and Archie (a 5 year old Boston Terrier). I also have a 14 1/2 year old cat named George who I rescued about a year and a half ago. He was an outdoor cat for his entire life, but I've turned him into a spoiled indoor cat. No one thought I could do it, but here we are. I've worked with a couple of rescues over the years and have fostered many dogs and cats. In addition to fostering, my rescue work also included coordinating, conducting and meeting rescue transports, administering meds to animals that were transported into the rescue and handling adoptions and home visits, care for kittens and puppies and elderly animals. I have had at least one dog in my life for just about my entire life. Cats came later in life when I had my kids because when I was a child myself, I wasn't allowed to have a cat. Over the years, I've learned about as much about cats as I know about dogs. My animals are well loved and cared for and I am very good at building new relationships with dogs and cats - meeting them where they are and working with them based on their individual cues and needs, not human expectations. Although I have no formal training, I have years of experience that has benefited me with extremely well behaved and happy animals. Before moving to Delaware, I was the unofficial dog/cat sitter for my neighborhood. I decided then that I would like to at least start doing this professionally on a part time basis. Now that I've been here for a little more than a year, the time is right for me to start. First with daily check ins and walks. Perhaps overnights with pets in my home on on a case by case basis since I have my own fur babies here. Your pets would be in great hands with me. I work full time from home and can do occasional walks and check in's during my work day. I have more availability after work and on the weekends. I walk my own dogs in the mornings, but I can check in on yours as needed. Either a visit to feed and play for a bit or for a quick walk. Overnight stays at my home for your dogs is a possibility on a case by case basis.
About: Animals have been a part of my life since childhood, and I’ve gained hands‑on experience with cats and dogs. (XS-XL) During my two years at the SPCA, I learned how to work confidently with dogs of all temperaments—whether they’re shy, energetic, anxious, senior, or dealing with reactivity or resource guarding. I’m patient, understanding, and always mindful of boundaries. I’ve helped train puppies, adults, and seniors in basic commands, and I’m comfortable administering medications and keeping animals on a steady routine. I’m currently available at any time of day, including weekends, and I can accommodate night‑shift care when needed. I also offer flexible pet‑sitting options, whether you need care for a few full days and nights or extended stays ranging from one week up to one month. I follow any schedule already in place at a client’s home—including feeding routines, potty breaks, playtime, cuddle time, and medication administration—to help eliminate unnecessary stress for your pets. I’m also able to provide longer walks (30+ minutes), engaging play sessions such as fetch, tug, snuffle‑mat activities, and treat‑puzzle enrichment, along with plenty of cuddle time for pets who enjoy affection.
