“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.”
“I found Kelly in a moment of desperation when I needed a last minute sitter for my fur baby. Not only was she quick to respond but also came to meet my recent rescue before hand. I had never used a River sitter before and after meeting her in person and learning about her vet tech background I was confident she would take great care of my girl. She sent me daily pictures and updates and took excellent care of Zoya for me while I was away. I will 100% be booking her again!”
“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.”
“I’m very happy with the care provided by Megan. She’s very much in tune with dog personalities and likes/dislikes. She has a young daughter who is also in tune with dogs and is a good playmate. Megan was flexible and responsive with communications, sending pictures. I’d be very comfortable asking for help again in the future.”
“Michelle was very attentive to our dog Mickey and took him on many walks which they both enjoyed. We loved getting lots of photos of Mickey and, when we picked him up, he was brushed so nicely that he almost looked groomed.”
“Carlie was a pleasure to work with and was super communicative with me for our Goldens care...She was also flexible and understanding when an unexpected sickness arose (which was not related to her care in any way) Would recommend her and will use her again for sure!”
“Lacey was amazing with my fur babies, even my 55lbs of crazy lol. They both came home happy and calmer than I even expected, she needs to tell me her secret to calm my crazy girl lol. I will only be using Lacey for my fur babies care in the future!!”
“Hands down one of the best sitters out there-period! Not only did Samantha agree to board my two dogs on short notice, she went above and beyond to care for one of them who unexpectedly obtained additional medical needs the night before my travel. What could have been an incredibly stressful (or non-existent) trip became one of the most stress-free trips due to Samantha’s care. I received daily updates (with photos/video) and I’ve never seen my dogs so happy away from home. She’s got a spacious fenced-in yard and a well-maintained area for the dogs to play and stay. I couldn’t be happier or more thankful for Samantha’s care. Book her now-you won’t find anyone better!”
“Best sitter! Molly had a great time running and resting at Kate’s house for the weekend. She had an extra crate for her when I forgot mine and also kept me updated with Molly’s day. I really appreciated the short turn around as my planned sitter canceled last minute and I was scrambling to find a reliable fix! Thank you Kate!”
“I can't recommend Brenda highly enough for her exceptional dog sitting service. I was initially worried about leaving my dog, with someone else, as I had never left him with anyone before. He's a recent rescue from a shelter, and his well-being is incredibly important to me. However, Brenda's approach and genuine love for animals immediately put my mind at ease. She treats the dogs as if they were her own, never locking them in crates, and her friendly, kind, and compassionate nature makes working with her a delight. Brenda's professionalism and courteous approach, coupled with her attentive and reassuring demeanor, created a stress-free experience, especially for a first-time dog parent like me. Her dedication to treating the dogs like family is truly commendable, and her service is rooted in compassion and professionalism. With Brenda, it feels like I'm leaving my dog with a trusted friend, not just a dog sitter. I will definitely be using her services again and again. Thank you, Brenda!”
“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.”
“Daniela was amazing, sent us pictures and updates on our dogs during our entire trip! Will definitely reach out again on our next vacation. Thank you for everything you did, it was great knowing Jango and Rogue were well taken care of.”
“Paige was great. She was available on short notice and was accommodating to a weird drop-off time due to bad weather. She was attentive to my animals needs and it was obvious my pup had a great time with her. She sent tons of pictures and videos and gave comprehensive daily updates. I would absolutely recommend this sitter and will be using her again in the future.”
About: I am a proud pup and kitty parent. I have been taking care of pets professionally sine 2005. I provide daily dog walking, doggie boarding and kitty pet sitting services in the Milton area. Fabulous references to attest to my quality care. Contact me for a free consult. I look forward to adding you to the Animal Lovers family! I accept dogs that are friendly to all dogs and humans. No aggressive behaviors. I also can only accept potty trained dogs. I can administer medications and only work outside the home part-time so can easily provide potty breaks and walks every 4 hours.

“Our senior dogs were well taken care of! Communication was easy and location is conveniently close to the beach. Will use again! Thank you for your wonderful care!”
“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. !!!!!”
“Mary Sue did a wonderful job watching Schatzi, as always! She even supplied us with chicken and rice because our dog ended up having some loose stool towards the end of the stay. We really appreciate her help and caring attitude. Thank you!”
“Lori takes such great care of our labradoodle. She’s been a lifesaver for us when we need to go out of town and leave our furry friend at home. It’s comforting to know she’s in such good hands. Thanks Lori!!!”

“Jessica is awesome and quick to communicate! She was kind and accommodating to our two elderly dogs and even came to meet us before our first booking. I felt totally at ease having her in our home while we were not there and knew she could handle all of their needs, including administering meds. We had a last minute schedule change and she was flexible. I also appreciated that she went above and beyond and cleaned their food bowls even though she came mid-day for a drop in visit and not at a feeding time. We have booked her again, this time for a full weekend, and look forward to having her back!”
“Jacob did an outstanding job caring for our rabbit, Bunny, while we were away. He was incredibly communicative, responded quickly to every message, and always arrived on time, staying for the full visit. He had no trouble giving Bunny her medication, sent thoughtful updates and great photos after each visit, and made us feel completely at ease. We also came home to everything spotless and exactly as we had left it, which we really appreciated. We wouldn't hesitate to book Jacob again and will absolutely be asking him to watch Bunny the next time we travel!”
“Jacqueline did an excellent job taking care of our kitty girl! She went above and beyond with cleaning up after her (we have a unique set up with potty pads AND a litter box because the cat doesn’t like to urinate in the box). Jacqueline left the “cat room” very clean and tidy, and it was so nice to come home to after a long day of traveling. We will definitely utilize Jacqueline’s pet care services again!”
About: I understand that cats need patience, consistency, and respect for their space. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, playtime, and giving cats attention on their terms. I focus on keeping their routine calm and stress-free while their owners are away.
“Malia did a great job taking care of our 3 cats. We had some obnoxiously complicated instructions because one of the kitties has some special needs. I so appreciate the extra effort and great communication. Thanks so much, Malia!”
About: I have always been a pet owner.I love animals and would love to take the worry and stress out of your life by taking care of yours while you’re away. I know first hand how stressful this can be. No worries with your fur baby being here alone while I’m at work, I currently work from home so I’m available for drop off or pick up anytime. Unfortunately, I can not do drop ins at your home until after 230. I have a 4 year old Shih tzu/bichon/poodle mix and a 2 year old cat. I live in a condo so we walk daily to get his (and my) exercise. I can have your pet here overnight, come to your house to walk or just check in. Im very flexible.
“Samantha was wonderful! I had such peace of mind knowing my diabetic cats were being cared for by someone with her level of knowledge and experience. Plus, she managed to befriend my one cat who usually hides from strangers. That was huge. Will definitely book Sam again!”

I’m bonded and insured to take care of the animals.

“Leanne is great. Our senior cat is very comfortable with her, as are we. Leanne is regular like clockwork, something that is very important for our Lady. Leanne brought in packages without asking and she is conscientious about keeping the house tidy. Her daily pictures show her cuddling with our kitty, another important part of our kitty's day.”
“First time I used a pet sitter for my dogs. I felt perfectly relaxed leaving them in such kind caring hands. Would not hesitate to use this sitter again. Always on time for visits, feeding, medication, potty breaks and doggy love.❤️”
“Brooke did a wonderful job with our little puppy! She was very responsive and gave us updates and pictures. It was nice to know our little guy was in good hands. Definitely going to be using her again!”
About: Much of my animal experience has involved caring for cats, as well as dogs. I have a cat of my own and he is the light of my life! I understand they often require a bit more effort to befriend and I'm happy to put in the work!
“Steve provides my cats with loving care while I am away. I have one cat who is difficult and can be unfriendly and he has won her over! He sends pictures of her sitting on his lap! He is always prompt and thoroughly cleans the litter box. I love the photo updates he sends while visiting with the cats - I can tell that they are well-cared for. He truly loves animals - it is very obvious from the care and attention they receive.”

“Jessica is amazing with Fur babies. Very accommodating and professional. My Tug love going there. Its always a great day whenever he spends his day with her. Her dog Tashi is very good with other dogs. Tug's favorite retreat is his stay at Jessica's. Highly recommended 👌”
“Extremely calm and knowledgeable. Knew exactly how to introduce our Boston Terrier to her own dogs. Everything went smoothly. Her home was immaculate and organized. She sent pictures frequently. Our dog looked extremely relaxed and happy in her home. She came home exhausted from playing in their large fenced in yard. I felt very safe, leaving our precious pup with Meghan.”
“Jacqueline and William were great! We made a last minute reservation and they accommodated our drop off and pickup times which needed to be flexible since we were going kayaking and uncertain how long it would take. Will definitely use them again the next time we are Trap Pond.”
“Samantha was everything and MORE we could have ever asked for! She was very reassuring and eased all of our nerves as anxious dog parents! She gave several updates and treated our pup as her own. We will definitely use Samantha again when we are back in the area!”
“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.”
“Michele was awesome, put both Sadie and me at ease immediately. Sadie hadn’t stayed with a sitter for over 3 years but she was calm and affectionate with Michele and I’m not sure she wanted to leave! I’ll definitely use her services again.”
“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 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.”
About: Had a variety of different dogs growing up, large and small breeds alike, and a sprinkle of cats mixed in as well as having cared for elderly and diabetic pets. Just a stay at home mom looking for a little extra something to do which leaves plenty of time to check in for walks, feeding, and playtime whenever needed. Happy to provide drop in visits to make sure pets are fed, watered, given potty breaks (and litter boxes if needed), and of course lots of love when you're away!
“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!”
“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 live in a home who foster dogs in need. Home with the dog all day so they'll have that attention and someone caring for them. I can take care of elderly dogs that use diapers full proper care even all the way to puppies and there high energy . Me being young i do play with the dogs i like to run around with them to keep myself and them entertained. I am a MMA fighter so I'm free everyday my gym is right here at home where I train at so I'm never off the property unless I have to be. I have a fenced in back yard that the dog will have access to and when inside your dog will be with me in my room making itself a comfortable home anywhere it pleases.
“Add 5 more stars! I had some reservations Bob and Susan wouldn't care for my rambunctious 4 month old puppy the way I do. Boy was I completely wrong!!! Dead. Wrong. They were very patient and even gave me some recommendations based on their astute observations as a first time dog owner. They are very good with updates too which put all my anxiety about leaving my little peanut with strangers. They certainly overexceeded my expectations. As a dog sitter myself, I have high expectations and didn't have to worry one bit! I will be a return customer as I highly recommend them.”

“I found Kelly in a moment of desperation when I needed a last minute sitter for my fur baby. Not only was she quick to respond but also came to meet my recent rescue before hand. I had never used a River sitter before and after meeting her in person and learning about her vet tech background I was confident she would take great care of my girl. She sent me daily pictures and updates and took excellent care of Zoya for me while I was away. I will 100% be booking her again!”
“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.”
“I’m very happy with the care provided by Megan. She’s very much in tune with dog personalities and likes/dislikes. She has a young daughter who is also in tune with dogs and is a good playmate. Megan was flexible and responsive with communications, sending pictures. I’d be very comfortable asking for help again in the future.”
“Carlie was a pleasure to work with and was super communicative with me for our Goldens care...She was also flexible and understanding when an unexpected sickness arose (which was not related to her care in any way) Would recommend her and will use her again for sure!”
“Lacey was amazing with my fur babies, even my 55lbs of crazy lol. They both came home happy and calmer than I even expected, she needs to tell me her secret to calm my crazy girl lol. I will only be using Lacey for my fur babies care in the future!!”
“Hands down one of the best sitters out there-period! Not only did Samantha agree to board my two dogs on short notice, she went above and beyond to care for one of them who unexpectedly obtained additional medical needs the night before my travel. What could have been an incredibly stressful (or non-existent) trip became one of the most stress-free trips due to Samantha’s care. I received daily updates (with photos/video) and I’ve never seen my dogs so happy away from home. She’s got a spacious fenced-in yard and a well-maintained area for the dogs to play and stay. I couldn’t be happier or more thankful for Samantha’s care. Book her now-you won’t find anyone better!”
“I can't recommend Brenda highly enough for her exceptional dog sitting service. I was initially worried about leaving my dog, with someone else, as I had never left him with anyone before. He's a recent rescue from a shelter, and his well-being is incredibly important to me. However, Brenda's approach and genuine love for animals immediately put my mind at ease. She treats the dogs as if they were her own, never locking them in crates, and her friendly, kind, and compassionate nature makes working with her a delight. Brenda's professionalism and courteous approach, coupled with her attentive and reassuring demeanor, created a stress-free experience, especially for a first-time dog parent like me. Her dedication to treating the dogs like family is truly commendable, and her service is rooted in compassion and professionalism. With Brenda, it feels like I'm leaving my dog with a trusted friend, not just a dog sitter. I will definitely be using her services again and again. Thank you, Brenda!”
“Daniela was amazing, sent us pictures and updates on our dogs during our entire trip! Will definitely reach out again on our next vacation. Thank you for everything you did, it was great knowing Jango and Rogue were well taken care of.”
“Paige was great. She was available on short notice and was accommodating to a weird drop-off time due to bad weather. She was attentive to my animals needs and it was obvious my pup had a great time with her. She sent tons of pictures and videos and gave comprehensive daily updates. I would absolutely recommend this sitter and will be using her again in the future.”

“Michele who was recommended by a neighbor, was absolutely amazing and I had no worries at all leaving my two pups in her care. Her home was filled with toys, doggie beds and plenty of room to roam and play. I could enjoy my daughters beautiful wedding and not worry about them, which was priceless. I will definitely being using Michele's services again! Highly recommend!”
“Daniel watched our dog, Curie, for the day while my husband and I were visiting friends in the area. He was communicative, attentive, and friendly. We appreciated the regular updates even though we had just dropped her off for the day. We’d definitely have him take care of Curie again!”

“AMAZING! Lacey absolutely loved being with Marvina and the entire group of new best friends! She played so hard every day that she literally collapsed every night and slept like a rock! It's so good to have her socialize with so many different types of animals! She doesn't even get opportunities to socialize with just dogs. BEST medicine ever. Marvina is an amazing individual. I don't know how she does it with the entire group of pets she has - but she always looks like it is just another day in paradise! What a wonderful woman. She loves our dog and treats her like one of the family. I can't imagine taking Lacey anywhere else!”
“We were very happy with Bob and Susan's care of our two Golden Retrievers while we were away on vacation for a week. We had recently relocated to the area full time and were in search of an in-home dog sitting arrangement similar to the service we had used for the last 9 years in Newark, DE. I searched many Rover profiles and Bob and Susan's profile and reviews made the drive from Bethany to Lewes worth checking out. We arranged the meet and greet and felt very comfortable then leaving our beloved dogs with them for the week. As noted in other reviews, recieving regular updates and pictures really helped us enjoy our vacation. I feel fortunate to have found Bob and Susan and will certainly be booking with them again.”
“Jill T. is a wonderful sitter for our Pomeranian Lily. I never worry when Lily is with her! I would recommend her to any of my friends and family if they were in need of a dog sitter.”
