Personalized care for your dog or cat - Odessa
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Odessa
“First time boarding our dog Nova and Nikkita and her beautiful family took excellent care of Nova and we will definitely request that Nova return with this family again!”
“I would highly recommend Jen! I have basically never left my dog at home alone. I chose to have Jen watch him since I didn’t want to leave my dog for the first time at home for 8 hours or more. I had a good feeling about her. She was on time, ready, and happy to take my dog. In talking to Jen I could tell that she has experience with dogs and that she loves them! She reassured me when I left him with her and let me know what she had planned. Jen took pictures during their walk and at the park. She sent me pictures throughout the afternoon and evening. My dog was happy and not anxious at all. When I came to pick him up she was already downstairs with my dog and his things in hand. He was very happy. I will definitely book Jen again next time I’m in the D.C. area!”
“Candice was an amazing sitter. My puppy was cared for as if he was her own. I received updates without having to request updates and my puppy was returned happy and healthy. I highly recommend her to care for your fur baby.”
“Jen was wonderful! She did a fabulous job taking care of Tia. Jen sent us multiple photos and video that made us feel very comfortable. Tia had a great time and we would definitely use Jen in the future.”
“Where do I start!? This was our first time going away and having to leave our Megan! She’s an elder fur baby and we couldn’t think of anyone who would properly take care of her. We turned to rover and it may sound strange but when I saw Barbra picture I knew she would be perfect! She sent pictures, and updates constantly! Our Megan looked so happy and taken care of! I am so pleased with her service and I will definitely be using Barbra in the future! Thanks a MILLION Barbra we appreciate you more than you know!”
“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.”
“Dolly and Dena had a wonderful time with Beth! We loved all of the communication we received, especially the pictures and videos. They reassured us that our girls were together and happy and having fun. In the videos, we could see the pups interacting with Beth the same way they interact with us - tails wagging and confident of getting affection. We will definitely book them another stay with Beth!”
“Rackeem was awesome with my dogs while I was on vacation! He took excellent care of my fur babies and I highly recommend him! He provides daily updates and pictures so you can be assured your pets are safe and doing well while in his care. He's also a great trainer as well! He helped my very active 14 month old pup 🐶 stop pulling so much while on our walks.”
“Emily did a great job with our pups! Just a quick overnight trip but she took time to send us pics and texts to let us know how they did. They came home happy and exhausted (just the way we like it! 🙂).”
“Claudia took such amazing care of my dog! She shared lots of photos and detailed updates every day, so I always knew how he was doing. She not only took him out for walks but also played with him at home and even let him snuggle with her at night. My pup absolutely adored her — when it was time to leave, he even sat on the lawn refusing to go, with watery eyes. It’s clear he felt very loved and happy with Claudia. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter! 💛🐾”
“Jilesa was a wonderful sitter for our dog, Ollie! She was easy to keep in touch with and sent us adorable photos of our dog meeting the farm animals. I would happily use her again anytime we are in the area and recommend her highly!”
“The sweetest people! They agreed to take my puppy less than a week before my trip(after I got canceled on and started stressing). I was super nervous since this was the first time leaving him but I wrote instructions and I feel as though they followed every single one! I got picture updates as requested and when they had questions they asked. He got plenty of playtime and outdoor/potty time! They also didn't mind us bringing our crate to their home since were are crate training snd he sleeps in there. I will definitely use them again in the future! Thank you so much for taking Waffle into your home and treating him like your own!”
“Jenny was so great with our pup - she made sure our pup had lots of outside time on her beautiful property with a fenced yard ! She was very accommodating with drop off and pick up and took such great care of our dog - our pup came back tired from all the fun she had . 100% recommend Jenny and will be using her again for upcoming trips.”
“I can't say enough good things about Susan! She took good care of my GSD Ace for 25 nights while my family was on a long vacation and we were completely at ease the entire time. She was very responsible, communicative and clearly cared for my dog. I received regular updates, photos and videos which made being apart so much easier. Ace was happy, healthy and loved when I returned. Thanks a lot Susan!”
“Alexandra and her family took amazing care of our sometimes nervous dog bella and sent her back to us as happy as we left her. As caring and competent a dog sitter as you'll find.”
“Sandra is an excellent sitter! Our dog Chico was very happy to be with her! Definitely we will go back to her as needed and certainly highly recommend Sandra as a pet sitter!”
“Yvonne took such great care of my YorkChon Kali. She was available to keep Kali overnight for a last minute getaway and sent me regular updates & pics. It was very reassuring & helped both me & my husband relax knowing that she was being well cared for. I highly recommend Yvonne. Thanks again Yvonne! ☺️”
About: My Work History: My 30 plus career was in Quality and Risk for financial institutions most recently ending a contractor position mid summer of 2023. About Me: I had the opportunity to take a career hiatus after ending a 15 year career to focus on family with the plan to return to work within the year. Then Covid hit. As a result I was fortunate to stay home longer than anticipated and care for our families new addition, our now five year old Bulldog, Boxer, Shepherd Mix. This made me realize the importance of her growth and safety as she flourished with consistency during human connection. I believe this alleviated her diagnosed anxiety and gave her a sense of not only security but happiness. As long as I can remember I have had a passion for connecting with pets and making sure they are not just cared for by feeding and walking, but to also make them feel safe with their caretaker. I believe animals should respect humans and at the same time humans should respect the loyalty, love and health of their pets. My entire life I have owned Chocolate Labrador Retrievers, Chesapeake Bay Retrievers and two cats. Most proudly I have raised 5 kids who have had hamsters' and fish while 2 children left them in our care when spending half their time with their other parental unit. Over 4 years ago I hired a trainer for our family dog and have skills that can be put to use to help your dog if they are currently in training. I am familiar with crates and to identify when a dog may not feel safe, anxious and when they give a warning to people to back off if they are not in their best mood. I am familiar with the laws of Delaware for on leash and off leash. I am also happy to give your loyal pet its daily medication during the visit if needed. My years working in Quality, Risk, Mother and Animal owner makes me a great candidate for communicating in a way to effectively resolve any possible difference of opinion and believe that starts with listening and respecting the other person. If at any time you are not satisfied and need me to change a routine or approach I am happy to make those adjustments as long as we both feel comfortable with the outcome. My goal is for you to feel relaxed knowing that I am there to take care of your loyal family pet. Truth be told, having 5 kids that are successful, self-sufficient and polite makes me a great candidate to work with you and your family pet. I am currently a homemaker looking for a new career and my love and history of owning animals (since the age of 11) makes aware of the importance of availability. I care for my own animal with a routine first. Animals feel happy and safe with routines. My dog knows when it's time to go outside, time for a treat and when to play. If that's not built into the daily schedule then that can take a while to acclimate depending on the animal. If I were in a client's home I should not be caught off guard on what they expect and or what they would like to set as a routine. For instance, if I have 2 visits for one home and their animal(s) we would need to know if there is feeding, water, medicine and walking or exercising during each visit. If I notice they are not eating or drinking or playful during those visits I would want to discuss with the client to consider whether or not there are options to help their pet thrive with nutrition. I am also aware of foods that should not be provided to the dog, nor would I bring my own treats unless it was approved by Rover and Client.
“Adriene was fabulous! My cockapoo seemed very comfortable and at ease. Adriene sent multiple daily updates and photos. She was very flexible. This was my first time using Rover in the area and she made the experience seamless. Will definitely be using her again!”

“Monica is so wonderful! She leaves the best detailed check ins and is so nice to our fur babies. Mine have a had time eating when I am gone and Monica was patient and monitored them to make sure they ate and felt comfortable. Her communication is amazing! She responds fast to any changes or concerns. She was even so kind to clean up any dirty pet dishes from their wet food and litter messes. She took amazing care of the house and mentioned any concerns if something didn’t seem right. I will definitely be booking with her again. She was amazing”
“Rebecca took great care of our dog. She was very dependable and on time even in poor weather conditions. Our dog was very comfortable with her. We would highly recommend her to anyone.”

“We're very happy with Breana. She did a great job taking care of our fur baby (cat) making sure he had what he needed as well as giving him his play time and treats. We will definitely be using her again.”
“This is my first time using Rover. I could not have had a better experience. Raven was amazing. Timely. Communicative. Friendly. Genuine in her services. What a relief it was to know that my pet (2) cats were receiving excellent TLC and treats. Will call on her again if needed.”
“Lauren did an amazing job with Barkley ! She was perfect in all facets of her visit. Barkley was very comfortable having Lauren looking after him. I would recommend her any time !!”
“Julia is wonderful and did an amazing job watching my cat. She spent time with her and made sure that my cat warmed up to her, which isn't easy. I look forward to having her help again soon!”
“Definitely took care of my fur babies they were not anxious when I got back home which is a relief. I only critic would be of the amount of times my door alerted me of in and out home alerts (not ones of taking out trash which makes me anxious) and would like more photos next time. But other than that kitty care 10/10. And like I said next time as in, I would have her take care of my babies again!💕 very sweet lady. Very responsive. And knows what’s she is doing.”

They are spoiled rotten. Their names are Rainy and Stormy . I am well trained in giving oral medications as I had a fur baby that had congestive heart failure for 4 years whom also was a senior dog when he passed at 18 years old. I have taken care of other people’s dogs and cats. Where they are treated like my babies while here as well and get spoiled and lots of attention.

About: We got our first pup in 2011. All 3 dogs we’ve owned have been since they were puppies. We’ve taken care of pups who require shots and pills. We treat pups in our house like family members. My husband and I have off weekends. My husband works from home so dogs get let out frequently. I’m a high school teacher so I also have summers off. We’re happy to follow your routines so they feel at home. I have 2 friendly dogs who love kids & pups. We just ask that your pup is friendly with kids and dogs, and is comfortable being crated for short periods of time, if needed.
“Mutig was so happy when we picked him up! I have been nervous about where to leave him during a vacation we have coming up, but I was put at ease after this stay. She sent so many happy pictures of Mutig and Quincy playing and sent me updates of how he was doing. Yvonne and her husband were very caring. She fed the dogs separately, took them out often, and showed a lot of care. We are so glad we found her to have piece of mind that we are leaving Mutig in good hands when we cant be there!”
“Liza had a great time with Jen!! Jen is really caring and was really attentive to put Liza at ease, not always a simple task as Liza has separation anxiety. Jen was very responsive, took a bunch of pictures, and sent me lots of updates. I really appreciated it and highly recommend her!”
“Absolutely phenomenal! I have just moved from Las Vegas Nevada and I don’t know that many people out here yet. Her warm personality and smile makes you feel at ease. I was already struggling to find someone last minute do to some house work needed but seems like everyone wasn’t too keen on watch a pit mix. No hesitation from her whatsoever and super responsive! Will definitely be back !”

Even in a short time, my dog seems relaxed and well cared for after spending time with her. Overall, I’m very pleased with the care she’s had provided and would definitely recommend her to others Sylvia A”

“Nikiya and her fiance made Evee feel right at home. I had an emergency boarding need and Nikiya stepped up to assist. She was sweet, extremely communicative, and shared many photos of my baby playing and enjoying her stay. I felt great vibes from Nikiya from the very start, and look forward to future visits.”

About: My experience with canines stretches back to my childhood. I've grown up with all different breeds ranging from Rottweiler to Lhasa Apso. I have been lucky enough to spend my life caring for my own pups and I would like to offer my time to allow all pup parents the peice of mind knowing that their fur baby is taken care of. My services will always include a picture of your pup enjoying some interaction time, no matter the service offered. You will have the piece of mind knowing that your pup is in good hands. I currently care for 3 pups all over 8yo (Drake-BorderCollie/Black Lab Mix, Brody-Pitbull/Basenji Mix, Quinn-Purebred Choc. Lab). Let me know what your situation is and how I can assist you. I offer a wide range of pet care services and I have experience with puppies who are on a bathroom schedule as well as elder pups who prefer to just cuddle and sunbathe. I am currently taking night classes to spend more time with my older pups. Please let me know what your needs are and how I can fit into your schedule needs. My home is on a corner and has plenty of yard space that gets cleaned daily to allow for worry free zoomies. While I do not have a fence, I utilize ground stakes and stay outside with my eye on the tricksters. I also have beds for any lazy pup to sunbathe or sit under a tree. I also travel to homes for any pups that are a little anxious when they leave their comfy place. I always clean during and after my visits to provide that additional piece of mind knowing that your home is cared for as well as your pets.

About: Growing up, my family has always had pets whether they were dogs, cats, turtles, hamsters, guinea pigs, hermit crabs or fish. This inspired me to receive my Associates degree in Veterinary Technology in 2024 at Del Tech then sit for and pass the VTNE to become an LVT (Licensed Veterinary Technician). I love animals dearly and would be happy to care for your pets during the day when their beloved ones are away from the house. I will care for your pet(s) as if they were my own! Whether we go for a walk together, run around the yard, give them a quick meal or just provide general companionship, I look forward to meeting your furbabies! I do have a full time job as a veterinary technician which leaves me unavailable every Monday and Friday but I do have availability other days of the week so be sure to send in a request so I can review it! I aim to be transparent and flexible with all customers about my availability. While at your home, I will watch your pets carefully to assure they are being safe while getting to spend time outside or just receiving some companionship. I will be sure to fill all food and water bowls (if applicable) before I leave to ensure your pets have access to basic needs.
“Matthew is awesome! He’s reliable, energetic, has such a positive outlook, and our greyhound, Guinness, LOVES his walks with him. He treats Guinness like he was one of his own pets. The notifications with pictures, videos, and maps of their walks are very helpful, giving me piece of mind that our best bud is being handled properly in our absence. Since this can be a source of anxiety for me during my “in-office” work days, I feel much better knowing that Matt will come through when we need him. Thanks, Matt. We really appreciate your help last week!”
About: I’ve spent my entire life caring for animals, including dogs, cats, and horses, which has given me a deep understanding of their needs, behaviors, and personalities. Growing up with pets taught me the importance of consistency, patience, and attentive care, whether that meant daily feeding routines, grooming, exercise, or recognizing subtle signs that an animal might be stressed or unwell. I’m comfortable caring for pets of different ages, temperaments, and activity levels, and I approach every animal with kindness, reliability, and respect. My lifelong hands-on experience allows me to provide safe, loving, and attentive care, so pet parents can feel confident their pets are in capable and compassionate hands. I am currently in nursing school and work part time at two different jobs. Some weeks my school schedule changes so I might have more flexibility! I have a fenced in yard that I use for my dog. I am also able to crate animals as needed and will supervise all interactions.
About: I’ve cared for pets since age 11, and I truly enjoy giving them the love, attention, and gentle care they need and deserve every day. Pet care fits easily into my daily life because I’m in school, working part-time, and have a flexible schedule that allows me to help whenever needed. I don’t provide in-home boarding, but I always respect and carefully follow each owner’s instructions to ensure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for.
About: About Me: I am a teacher, pet mom (to both dogs & cats!), and lover of all animals. I lead my life with empathy, which makes me an extremely patient and effective pet care provider. It is my mission to treat your babies with the same amount of love, respect, and compassion that I would hope somebody would give to my own. I believe that behavior management, if necessary, should always be rooted in consistency and positive redirections. My Experience: Beyond being a cat and dog mom, I have years of experience with long term cat and dog sitting. I am experienced and comfortable with any age of pet, from puppies/kittens to senior animals. I have some basic experience with training from my own pets. My Schedule: Until my summer ends, I am available almost daily. Once school starts, I am available on weekends and week day evenings. During these times, I can do check ins, feedings, walks, play times, or overnights. I am comfortable with week day overnights, if your pet is able to be alone during my typical 8 hour work day.

“I would highly recommend Jen! I have basically never left my dog at home alone. I chose to have Jen watch him since I didn’t want to leave my dog for the first time at home for 8 hours or more. I had a good feeling about her. She was on time, ready, and happy to take my dog. In talking to Jen I could tell that she has experience with dogs and that she loves them! She reassured me when I left him with her and let me know what she had planned. Jen took pictures during their walk and at the park. She sent me pictures throughout the afternoon and evening. My dog was happy and not anxious at all. When I came to pick him up she was already downstairs with my dog and his things in hand. He was very happy. I will definitely book Jen again next time I’m in the D.C. area!”
“Jen was wonderful! She did a fabulous job taking care of Tia. Jen sent us multiple photos and video that made us feel very comfortable. Tia had a great time and we would definitely use Jen in the future.”

“Dolly and Dena had a wonderful time with Beth! We loved all of the communication we received, especially the pictures and videos. They reassured us that our girls were together and happy and having fun. In the videos, we could see the pups interacting with Beth the same way they interact with us - tails wagging and confident of getting affection. We will definitely book them another stay with Beth!”
“Rackeem was awesome with my dogs while I was on vacation! He took excellent care of my fur babies and I highly recommend him! He provides daily updates and pictures so you can be assured your pets are safe and doing well while in his care. He's also a great trainer as well! He helped my very active 14 month old pup 🐶 stop pulling so much while on our walks.”
“Emily did a great job with our pups! Just a quick overnight trip but she took time to send us pics and texts to let us know how they did. They came home happy and exhausted (just the way we like it! 🙂).”

“The sweetest people! They agreed to take my puppy less than a week before my trip(after I got canceled on and started stressing). I was super nervous since this was the first time leaving him but I wrote instructions and I feel as though they followed every single one! I got picture updates as requested and when they had questions they asked. He got plenty of playtime and outdoor/potty time! They also didn't mind us bringing our crate to their home since were are crate training snd he sleeps in there. I will definitely use them again in the future! Thank you so much for taking Waffle into your home and treating him like your own!”
“Jenny was so great with our pup - she made sure our pup had lots of outside time on her beautiful property with a fenced yard ! She was very accommodating with drop off and pick up and took such great care of our dog - our pup came back tired from all the fun she had . 100% recommend Jenny and will be using her again for upcoming trips.”
“I can't say enough good things about Susan! She took good care of my GSD Ace for 25 nights while my family was on a long vacation and we were completely at ease the entire time. She was very responsible, communicative and clearly cared for my dog. I received regular updates, photos and videos which made being apart so much easier. Ace was happy, healthy and loved when I returned. Thanks a lot Susan!”
“Alexandra and her family took amazing care of our sometimes nervous dog bella and sent her back to us as happy as we left her. As caring and competent a dog sitter as you'll find.”
“Sandra is an excellent sitter! Our dog Chico was very happy to be with her! Definitely we will go back to her as needed and certainly highly recommend Sandra as a pet sitter!”
“Yvonne took such great care of my YorkChon Kali. She was available to keep Kali overnight for a last minute getaway and sent me regular updates & pics. It was very reassuring & helped both me & my husband relax knowing that she was being well cared for. I highly recommend Yvonne. Thanks again Yvonne! ☺️”
“Ollie felt right at home. I loved the large fenced yard for off-leash exercise and that I got lots of picture updates. He enjoyed the extra company from other pups and children too. Thank you!!”
“Andres was wonderful. Great communication prior to the stay. He welcomes the dogs in his house. One of our dogs actually slept with him. I couldn't ask for anything more.”
“This was the first time my dogs stayed with a non family member so I was a littler nervous to leave them. Enrica took EXCELLENT care of my two Yorkies! She sent me updates and photos the entire time I was away which I absolutely loved. My dogs had so much fun with Enrica that the one had no interest in coming home, he just sat on her couch and looked at me. There was a nice fenced in yard to explore and it was clear they were spoiled. I would definitely send my dogs to stay with Enrica again! Thank you for taking such good care of my fur babies!”
“Our dog Cooper seemed so happy during his overnight boarding. He normally doesn’t eat at first when being boarded but he was enjoying a treat and eating his breakfast within moments of being dropped off. We received thoughtful updates and photos and Cooper was relaxed, comfortable and had settled in so quickly. Fantastic communication and quick responses made our trip stress free; we knew our dog was in good hands!”
“Laura was a fantastic dog sitter! She was flexible with scheduling pick up/drop off, sent an update with a photo, and our pup seemed to have a great time with her. We will definitely use her services again!”
“Steffani & Joshua were amazing!! They were extremely nice, very easy to work with, and amazingly helpful and accommodating to our situation. We received picture updates of our girl multiple times a day and they made sure she felt right at home in their home. We loved working with them and we will definitely be booking with them next time we need someone to watch our girl.”
