“Rita was great! Our first time using Rover and we were nervous since our dog can be a bit needy. Rita would send pictures and updates which put us at ease. Otis looked to have a great time! We will definitely be using Rita again.”
“This was our very first time boarding our dog, Dash, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We left him with Marissa for an entire week, and she went above and beyond to make both Dash and us feel comfortable. She sent daily updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. Dash looked so incredibly happy the whole time and made plenty of new doggy friends while he was there. To top it off, Marissa even sent him home with homemade treats and the sweetest little pawprint craft that we’ll cherish forever. It’s clear she truly loves and cares for the dogs she watches. We will absolutely use Marissa every time we need pet care, and we recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and thoughtful sitter!”
“Our Pippa enjoyed her lengthy stay with Andres! Andres kept in contact to let us know Pippa was doing well and gave us a great outbrief when we picked her up. Thank you, Andres!”
“Patti not only helped us out on short notice, but she also was incredibly accommodating to a smaller, more nervous dog. Clearly she truly is an animal lover and the house is a great environment for pets.”
“Sherry was very communicative, accommodating for an energetic puppy, and went above & beyond with treats! Mila was treated like the princess she is. I appreciated the transparency and patience she provided. I would leave her with Mila again in a heartbeat (and will again soon!).”
“Chyann, was an amazing sitter for my baby. Beanie stayed with her for a week and throughout the entire stay she kept me updated with pictures and insight into how he was doing. She’s one of the more informed sitters on this platform and following our meet-and-greet I was completely sold on choosing her as a sitter. With the updates, smooth transition for drop-off, and Chyann’s warm personality I was completely at ease and confident throughout the boarding process. I’d definitely recommend choosing Chyann!”
“Ralphie had a great time and I can tell he was well taken care of. Nick and Katie sent us pictures and kept us updated throughout Ralphie's stay, which kept our minds at ease. I highly recommend booking with Nick and hope to book again on our next vacation.”
About: I have a house where I can provide individual or group care for dogs. I co-own a dog named French Fry, who has been a significant part of my training experience. I am available for boarding on weekends, starting Saturday morning and continuing until either Monday or Tuesday evening. Additionally, I have availability during certain holiday periods. I have a partially fenced-in yard and a metal crate available for dogs if needed. I follow any instructions that pet owners provide. I have a peace and calm environment for dog care.
“My pup loved Joseph. He met so many new friends and seemed so comfortable. I plan to use his services just for day to day daycare so he can get all the playtime he deserves.”
“My dog had a blast at Bronwen’s house. He got lots of outdoor playtime and I was sent a bunch of pictures and kept in the loop regarding meal times (he’s a picky eater). Will definitely rebook in the near future ! Excellent!”
“All the hype about Dante is true! He’s communicative, accommodating, and really great energy. He asks a lot of questions to ensure my Kado was well taken care of. Dante is someone who truly loves what he does and that makes me happy. I think Kado and I found a permanent sitter until Dante retires us lol”
“Alberta watched our 17.5 year old cockapoo for 2 weeks and took such great care of her. Our dog has some minor health issues and also requires diapers and Alberta had no problem taking care of that. She had great enthusiasm for watching senior dogs when we first met her and we felt like we were leaving our girl in excellent hands. We received updates throughout our trip and she was always timely when responding to our messages. We would definitely reach out to her first if we ever needed someone to watch our dog again. She was excellent and you should consider her when looking for a sitter.”
“Jordyn is the best! She watched our dog for about a week and she was so great! Our dog can be very particular, but Jordyn met all of his needs! Her communication was great too, we received photos and updates each day!”
“Thank you for taking such good care of our Woody! He loves staying with you, (we can tell from how excited he gets when we drop off & from the videos you share) and we appreciate the love attention you give him to help him feel comfortable in your home.”
“Olivia is great! This was the first time she watched our over energetic dog and she did a great job. She kept us updated and our dog had lots of fun. Highly recommend her services and hope to use her again.”
“Pooja was absolutely wonderful with Bentley! From the very beginning, I was impressed by how thorough she was during our meet and greet. She asked all the right questions about Bentley's routine, personality, feeding schedule, preferences, and any special needs, which immediately gave me confidence that she truly cares about the dogs she watches. Throughout his stay, she kept me updated, communicated well, and sent photos that helped me feel completely at ease while I was away. Bentley can be energetic and very attached to his people, but Pooja was patient, attentive, and loving with him. It was clear that she took the time to make him feel comfortable and treated him like one of her own. Coming home to a happy, well-cared-for pup is the best feeling, and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend Pooja to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, knowledgeable, communicative, and genuinely wonderful with dogs!”
“Amy and Cathy were wonderful! We have a special needs dog who is diabetic and they were great administering the medication and ensuring that she was doing well. We got regular updates from them and felt good being away that our dogs were in such good care.”
“Jessica took great care of my girl Cora. She is super sweet and I could tell Cora made herself right at home. Her kitty was also part of the welcoming committee 😂. She was flexible on drop off/pick up times. I would definitely use Jessica’s services again!”
“The fact that Courtney is a vet was one of the reasons I reached out to see if she was able to watch Sunny for a weekend while I was out of town due to how anxious she can get. Let me tell you, she did not disappoint. During the meet and greet, she asked about emergency vet info and offered her office as an option for urgent but non-emergency situations since I don’t have a primary emergency vet. She was aware of Sunny’s needs while she was there. Courtney also kept great communication and sent lots of videos and pics during her stay. I would 10/10 recommend her and will definitely be booking services with her again when the time comes!”
“Ariana was AMAZING with our 2 boys. She was pleasant from the start all the way to the end. They were so happy when we picked them up. She sent photos of them on walks, playing, relaxing and just enjoying the company of such a warm hearted person. HIGHLY recommend her!”

“Linda was beyond fantastic. Not only was she such a kindhearted person, but she truly loves animals through and through. For my first service, I know it won’t be my last!”
“We can always trust our cats are in good hands with Emily! This is our third time having Emily check in on our two cats and we can’t recommend her enough. She goes above and beyond each visit not only feeding them, but playing with them, scooping the litter boxes, and even taking great pictures of them. Thanks Emily!”
“Megan was wonderful! She gave my super senior boy extra attention and helped him deal with his first alone time since losing his companion of 16 years. Will definitely be rebooking with her!”
“Highly recommend!! Colleen was attentive to my cat going the extra mile to make sure she was happy and very we cared for. I can’t imagine leaving my cat or any other pet in better hands!”
“Impending snow storm while away … what should you do?? Not worry! Jennifer took the initiative and time to secure my cats ahead of the storm just in case travel to my place might not be possible on the scheduled (storm) day. A sitter who cares about my cats welfare during a storm … priceless!!”
“Rita was great with communication, reliable, and went above and beyond sitting for my cat who had cancer. She gave my boy extra loving in his neediest time. Will definitely book with her in the future.”
“Jordana connected with my kitty right away and took great care of her. She is very dependable, takes great pictures to share with me and handles the feeding, playing and litter box with love. Highly recommend her for your pet care!”
“Marissa went above and beyond while taking care of our pets while we were out of town. It snowed A LOT and Marissa took the time to care for our home- she shoveled our front path and put down salt, and she was even so thoughtful that she put up the windshield wipers on our cars. We were dreading the conditions when we came home, but she was like a fairy godmother who made everything better!”
“Cassandra was so wonderful - she always sent me plenty of pictures and even helped me when I needed a last minute visit due to an emergency! Thank you so much for giving such amazing care to my kitties!!”
About: I've lived with and cared for dogs for my entire life; I love all animals, big, small, young, old and anywhere in between, the more animals the better! I have experience with dogs, cats, rats, hamsters, and fish and I get along with all of them. I am available for early mornings and late nights as well as weekends. I am also familiar with and unphased by the less glamorous sides of pet care, I don't mind cleaning up after puppy accidents, I have some experience grooming our shaggier four legged friends, and I know how to administer most puppy medications. I work from home so my availability is wide open for whatever you and your animals need. I am an extremely active person so there is no limit to much I will love and play with your pup, but I will also be patient and sensitive to nervous dog and cats. There is no puppy personality that I don't love. I can't wait to meet your dog! I work remote Monday - Wednesday. I also have weekends and evenings available for more involved activities. When im not pet sitting i like to take my own dog for hiking/ camping adventures! A typical day starts with breakfast and a nice romp around the yard, or brisque walk around the neighborhood so your dog can go potty and get out some morning energy. I have a flexible schedule at work so i can take frequent breaks to play and attend to your critters needs. In the evenings, im free again and i like to spend time being active, whether its a long walk, a game of fetch, or even an adventure to the park
“Colleen was wonderful!! She jumped in to help with our kitten last minute, and gave quick and helpful updates (with lots of pictures). I had complete peace of mind while away, and she did a great job!”
“Stephanie did an absolutely awesome job caring for my two cats for a month while I was traveling. You can tell the cats love her! There was a home renovation project in works during the time she watched the cats. She went above and beyond tracking them down when contractors locked them in rooms accidentally. It happened often! You can’t go wrong choosing Stephanie. Highly reliable!”
“Yasmine took great care of my cats while I was away for an extended trip. I needed a last-minute cat sitter, and she was incredibly reliable and easy to work with. She was very responsive/communicative, followed all of my instructions carefully, and always kept me informed of any observations or issues. It gave me peace of mind knowing my cats were in such good hands. I highly recommend Yasmine to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive cat sitter!”
“Thank you for taking such great care of Lady! We could tell by the pictures provided that she had a great time playing in the backyard and she looks forward to hanging out with you again soon!”
“She was so kind and thoughtful with our sweet babies She gave off such a good energy, and I had no hesitations about leaving them with her. The care and love she has for dogs absolutely comes through. Would definitely book her again!”
“Joseph was great with our kitties, and made our first experience with Rover wonderful. Joseph was able to pickup the last minute request and was a lifesaver. We’d recommend anyone needs care for their fur babies.”

About: I’m a devout animal lover with two dogs of my own and one cat. Caring for animals is truly one of my favorite joys in life! My ultimate goal is to give your dog a home away from home when they’re in my care. My senior dog recently passed from a rare lung cancer so I’m experienced in delivering oral medication, round the clock care and attention, and moving at their pace. Your baby will be well taken care of. I work remote so I am able to give your dog lots of love and attention throughout the day. Your dog will be able to take potty breaks every two hours in the fenced-in yard and spend time outside. We typically go for walks in the early morning and late evening. My Rover calendar is updated daily so that I can support any urgent needs, when available. Boarding & Daycare: My ultimate goal is to give your dog a home away from home! I only board one dog at a time so that I can give them adequate, individualized attention all throughout the day. You will not find a sitter in Wilmington that is as attentive as I am. My pets are kept separate during boarding. Your dog will have access to the entire first floor and the fenced in-backyard. I have a dedicated bedroom for boarding where I can sleep with dogs who may have separation anxiety to ensure they are comfortable. Drop-in visits & Walks: I‘ll take my time getting to know your dog and make sure they’re comfortable with me being there. I like to sit with them for a few minutes before and after each walk to feel out their energy levels. On walks, I recognize that this is their social time so I go at their pace and let them get plenty of sniff time. I am very respectful of your home and will follow your instructions closely.
“Weiyu is a great sitter. Excellent communication and updates. She took great care of my puppy and he had a great time with her adorable mini doxie. Would definitely bring my dog back for another visit !”
“Dante was Great. This was Bubba's first time being babysat by someone that him and I didn't know. Dante kept me updated on Bubba's progress throughout the day which gave me relief because I was just as nervous as Bub. He's very pleasant, excellent in communication, and l can tell that he genuinely love dogs.”
“Olivia is a sweet heart. My dog Suki is always excited when she gets dropped off and even more excited once she sees Olivia. I would definitely recommend her to family and friends.”
About: I got my first dog when I was 18 years old. She was the sweetest pup I have ever met! Since then dogs have become an irreplaceable part of my life. I have cared for puppies, senior dogs & few dogs with behavioral needs. I have fostered dogs through the years and learnt how meaningful this experience can be. My last foster was a young adult who was a year old. Open to pets all day subjected to advance notice/short notice. I'm mostly home so I can be flexible with your routine and needs. A small heads up is always appreciated. I live in an apartment complex which is 5 mins away from 2 dog parks. I'll take your dog for daily exercise and morning, afternoon and evening. I live in a neighborhood which has lots of space to walk for regular/short walks. I have a 7 year old mild tempered female dog who will provide excellent care and comfort while you are away. I can easily crate your dog if needed, I have a large crate.
“Cathy and Amy were wonderful and took great care of our Doggo! They are super friendly and create and joyful environment for the visiting dogs. As soon as I heard my dog was relaxed in the dog bed outside the bedroom and the kitchen I knew we found great sitters for our dog:)”
About: Years of happy loving pet sitting! No hassle, great communication, very trustworthy! I will treat your pets like my very own! Minimum training if needed I I work part time so I have plenty of flexibility. I can do weekends, mornings, afternoon, overnights! The perfect place for when you decide to go on vacation. Your pets will be watched constantly throughout the time they are in my care. The environment is very clean and neat, and more importantly pet safe
“This was my first time leaving my dog so I was nervous, but my dog warmed up to Cecilia right away! It’s a great home for dogs with plenty of space. When I picked my dog up she was tired, calm, and so happy! Great experience:)”
About: Back home, I rescued and cared for several dogs while helping them recover and find loving, responsible families. I have always felt a deep connection to animals and enjoy spending time with dogs of different sizes and personalities. I learn quickly and follow instructions carefully to ensure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own, prioritizing their happiness and well-being. I work part-time and online, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to adapt to each pet’s routine and needs. I am available throughout the week and can provide regular attention, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I understand that consistency is important for pets, and I do my best to maintain their usual schedule so they feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. I personally prefer house sitting because pets are often happiest and most relaxed in their own familiar environment. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, preferences, and any special instructions provided by their family. My goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible while providing attentive, loving, and reliable care. If needed, I may be able to host pets in my apartment on a case-by-case basis, but my primary focus is providing care in the pet’s own home where they feel safest and most comfortable.
“Courtney was great with our dog! We needed to find a sitter last minute and she was happy to help out. She was quick to respond to everything, provided updates throughout the day, and kept our dog in great care. Would highly recommend!”

I have volunteer experience with rescue dogs at a rescue in Pa in my twenties, volunteered at Tri State Bird Rescue, and Forgotten Cats for many years. I have been a sitter for dogs of all sizes including a coon hound, pit mix, corgi, and a golden doodle. I’ve even made homemade dog food when necessary! I have also been a sitter for cats! I’m willing to get my hands dirty and am used to cleaning up for and bathing dogs in my home as well! I love the outdoors and walking dogs, so your dog will get plenty of outside time.

I make sure pets are always supervised, secure, and in a calm environment where they can feel safe and relaxed. When outdoors, I stay very aware of our surroundings and communicate carefully with others before allowing any interactions with people or other animals. I always prioritize safe walks, playtime, and exercise. Indoors, I make sure the environment is clean and pet-safe by keeping anything potentially harmful out of reach. I also pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and body language to ensure they are comfortable, happy, and enjoying their time with me. My goal is to provide loving, attentive care so pets feel safe, cared for, and at home while their owners are away.

About: Hello! My name is Lily, and I have been taking care of pets for nearly 12 years. I adopted my first dog over 11 years ago. She had a lot of trauma from before we adopted her, and so have other dogs we have adopted, so I have plenty of experience with anxious “problematic” pets! I have owned 4 rescues in my life which all had their own quirks, and I have also watched dogs and cats for many people in my community. I have watched puppies and senior dogs who need help going to the bathroom. I have watched cats with three legs, cats who always get out, and even lizards! I absolutely love animals and I would love to get to know you and your fur babies. Message me if you have any questions! I’m currently working full-time in Wilmington DE, but unfortunately in this economy that’s not enough! I am available early in the mornings (before 8am), at lunch time, and after 5pm for walks and visits. I can do overnight stays as well, and I am always available on the weekends! Everyone has their own particular preferences for their pet. Some allow pets on furniture or in the bed, and some exclusively use a crate. Some dogs may love walks, while others prefer to run around in the backyard. I have worked with many different owners and pets and I will adjust to whatever is best for your pet! As for me personally, there is a wonderful dog park near my apartment that I take my dog to almost daily, she loves it! She doesn’t love walks and prefers to run around freely, and it allows her to play with other dogs and socialize! Every dog has different needs and I will make sure to meet them.
About: Hello, I’ve been taking care of my dogs for the past 10 years. I have a beagle terrier (Bleu) and a king charles caviler (Milo). Milo is now 3 years old and Bleu is about 10 years old.

“This was our very first time boarding our dog, Dash, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We left him with Marissa for an entire week, and she went above and beyond to make both Dash and us feel comfortable. She sent daily updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. Dash looked so incredibly happy the whole time and made plenty of new doggy friends while he was there. To top it off, Marissa even sent him home with homemade treats and the sweetest little pawprint craft that we’ll cherish forever. It’s clear she truly loves and cares for the dogs she watches. We will absolutely use Marissa every time we need pet care, and we recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and thoughtful sitter!”
“Our Pippa enjoyed her lengthy stay with Andres! Andres kept in contact to let us know Pippa was doing well and gave us a great outbrief when we picked her up. Thank you, Andres!”
“Patti not only helped us out on short notice, but she also was incredibly accommodating to a smaller, more nervous dog. Clearly she truly is an animal lover and the house is a great environment for pets.”
“Chyann, was an amazing sitter for my baby. Beanie stayed with her for a week and throughout the entire stay she kept me updated with pictures and insight into how he was doing. She’s one of the more informed sitters on this platform and following our meet-and-greet I was completely sold on choosing her as a sitter. With the updates, smooth transition for drop-off, and Chyann’s warm personality I was completely at ease and confident throughout the boarding process. I’d definitely recommend choosing Chyann!”
“Ralphie had a great time and I can tell he was well taken care of. Nick and Katie sent us pictures and kept us updated throughout Ralphie's stay, which kept our minds at ease. I highly recommend booking with Nick and hope to book again on our next vacation.”
About: I have a house where I can provide individual or group care for dogs. I co-own a dog named French Fry, who has been a significant part of my training experience. I am available for boarding on weekends, starting Saturday morning and continuing until either Monday or Tuesday evening. Additionally, I have availability during certain holiday periods. I have a partially fenced-in yard and a metal crate available for dogs if needed. I follow any instructions that pet owners provide. I have a peace and calm environment for dog care.
“My pup loved Joseph. He met so many new friends and seemed so comfortable. I plan to use his services just for day to day daycare so he can get all the playtime he deserves.”
“All the hype about Dante is true! He’s communicative, accommodating, and really great energy. He asks a lot of questions to ensure my Kado was well taken care of. Dante is someone who truly loves what he does and that makes me happy. I think Kado and I found a permanent sitter until Dante retires us lol”
“Jordyn is the best! She watched our dog for about a week and she was so great! Our dog can be very particular, but Jordyn met all of his needs! Her communication was great too, we received photos and updates each day!”
“Thank you for taking such good care of our Woody! He loves staying with you, (we can tell from how excited he gets when we drop off & from the videos you share) and we appreciate the love attention you give him to help him feel comfortable in your home.”
“Olivia is great! This was the first time she watched our over energetic dog and she did a great job. She kept us updated and our dog had lots of fun. Highly recommend her services and hope to use her again.”
“Jessica took great care of my girl Cora. She is super sweet and I could tell Cora made herself right at home. Her kitty was also part of the welcoming committee 😂. She was flexible on drop off/pick up times. I would definitely use Jessica’s services again!”
“The fact that Courtney is a vet was one of the reasons I reached out to see if she was able to watch Sunny for a weekend while I was out of town due to how anxious she can get. Let me tell you, she did not disappoint. During the meet and greet, she asked about emergency vet info and offered her office as an option for urgent but non-emergency situations since I don’t have a primary emergency vet. She was aware of Sunny’s needs while she was there. Courtney also kept great communication and sent lots of videos and pics during her stay. I would 10/10 recommend her and will definitely be booking services with her again when the time comes!”
“Ariana was AMAZING with our 2 boys. She was pleasant from the start all the way to the end. They were so happy when we picked them up. She sent photos of them on walks, playing, relaxing and just enjoying the company of such a warm hearted person. HIGHLY recommend her!”
“Brian has been so very accommodating to our changing schedule. Wesley seems very happy at Brian’s house and Brian is easy to communicate with and always responsive. Highly recommended.”
“Steffani is a sweetheart, and her and Josh took great care of Hazel!! They were flexible with our needs to drop off and pickup too. Hazel was super comfortable at their house and enjoyed the shady backyard. We would book with Steffani and Josh again!”
“George took great care of our dog. He sent pictures and updates which we really appreciated. He was also very understanding when our flight was delayed and we got back later than expected.”
“Shanisa communicated about my pup’s activity and shared videos and picture throughout my time away which made me feel extra comfortable. My pup was happy and enjoyed her vacation! The experience was amazing from start to finish. Thank you Shanisa !”
“My furbaby loves going to Jade’s. Jade keeps me updated throughout the stay and returns Keisha to me happy, healthy and relaxed. Jade always accepts my last minute requests with a willingness to accommodate my unpredictable schedule. Jade is my go-to sitter every time.”
“Nicolette was an excellent dog sitter! She was incredibly caring and attentive, always quick to respond to any questions or requests. She adapted to our dog's needs with ease, ensuring Bella was well-cared for and happy. Nicolette took Bella on plenty of walks, and her spacious backyard provided the perfect setting for playtime. With an abundance of toys and treats, Bella was thoroughly entertained. We also appreciated the regular updates and pictures Nicolette sent, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. I highly recommend Nicolette for anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter!”
