“She was very communicative and accommodating. She sent good photos and dogs seemed happy and comfortable The dogs came home very tired and lovey so they must’ve enjoyed their vacation. Thank you Teresa ❗️”
“Vy provides a safe, loving, and enriching home for our dog to feel comfortable while we are away. We had flight complications while traveling and she was very accommodating alleviating any additional travel stresses related to our dog’s care.”
“Jermaine was so accommodating for me as I book him for a last-minute work trip. Text me pictures and update as I was on my busy trip thinking of my baby girl. Definitely will utilize his services again.”
“This was my Shaka's first time with a Sitter since we relocated to Delaware. I was nervous at first because he had not been with a Sitter in over a year since moving here. However, as soon as we had our Meet and Greet with Myra all of that changed. He was nervous at first, but then she took his leash and began talking to him, walking him, rubbing him and giving him toys; I knew that she was the one! He showed me that he trusted her and both of our nerves calmed down. Myra kept me updated with daily texts and photos and I was able to see how relaxed and calm my baby was. I truly appreciate the care and love that Myra gave to my Shaka and I will definitely use her services again. I highly recommend Myra for all of your dog care needs.”
“Recently left my puppy with Thelma. I was able to go on vacation without concerns for my pups well being. She took extra precautions to keep him safe by putting up extra barricades around her fence to prevent him from escaping. My pup loved playing with her dogs. i definitely will have her watch my dog again.”
“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!!!!”
About: Ive been caring for dogs and cats since I was about 8 years old. I’ve always had multiple dogs in the house at a time. I’ve cared for dogs ranging from big to small, Seniors to puppies. I provide daily photos throughout your pets daily routine and tons of love I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of enough time to care for your fur baby. I believe all animals should be treated like they are you own even if they are temporary I live in a quiet cozy apartment with a big yard in the back. There is plenty of room for playtime and resting. Pets are welcome on all furniture
About: I have had dogs since I was a baby. I have cared for dogs of every stage of life, and I’m super passionate about senior dogs and small animals. Both my dogs are friendly with ferrets and other small animals, always supervised of course. I have experience in dogs, cats, ferrets, and all rodents. No experience with reptiles but I have read a lot about the husbandry of geckos and bearded dragons. Always willing to learn to have your pet be most comfortable in our home. I currently am a stay at home mom so I have plenty of extra time for animals. We (my boyfriend and I) already dedicate a huge portion of our time to our dogs so we would love to add more to the mix lol. My daughter (5yo) also loves animals and is learning the ropes of helping take care of them. We have a very big yard, and while it’s not fenced in there is still plenty of space to run on a lead! I can also help with potty training, pad training and lead training as well as socializing with our two very friendly goofy dogs.
“What a beautiful family! Jessica thank you for welcoming my girls into your home. You made an overnight stay stress-less! Thanks for all the pictures and updates! Take good care and we’ll see you again.”

“Not only do I love Rover, I loved having Rachel take care of my boys while I am out of town. She is kind, loving, and the cats love her! I'll be using her again to put my mind at ease while I'm away.”
“Aaron demonstrated exceptional care and entertainment while providing assistance to Zuri. We deeply appreciate his dedication to ensuring the well-being of our family members, particularly his compassionate and attentive approach.”
“We could not have been more satisfied with Luie! He went out of his way to ensure we were comfortable leaving our cat for two weeks. Bronco had some health issues within days of us leaving and Luie stepped up without hesitation. Sending us photos and coordinating with family for medicine from the vet. He sent us photos and updates everyday. When we returned home our house and cat were in perfect order. We will always try to book Luie when we need a pet/house sitter!”
About: Over the past several months, I've had the pleasure of caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior companions. Every pet has their own unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I have experience administering medications to senior dogs and understand the importance of following care instructions carefully and consistently. Whether it's sticking to feeding schedules, giving medications, going for walks, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. When I house sit, I also take great pride in caring for your home. I always aim to leave it cleaner than I found it, so you can come home to happy pets and a tidy, well-cared-for space. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing both your furry family members and your home are in caring, reliable hands. Caring for animals is already woven into my daily rhythm. I work part-time with flexible hours, giving me plenty of space in my schedule for peaceful walks, playtime, and check-ins with pets. I’m used to creating a balanced routine around my own dog, and bringing that same calm, attentive energy to other pets feels completely natural. I am currently free to sit/walk any day of the week as well as house sit for as long as you need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and familiar environment for them. I follow your routines exactly as you outline them — from feeding instructions to walk times to any training cues your dog is used to. I keep doors and gates secured, monitor their body language closely, and make sure they always have fresh water and a comfortable space to relax. Trust is extremely important to me, so I communicate clearly, send updates/photos, and treat your home with the same respect and care I treat your pet.
About: I’ve been caring for cats and pets most of my adult life, including flying to other states to house and pet sit for family and friends. I’ve administered subcutaneous injections, managed the special diets of multiple cats & taken pride in the car I give in the absence of the pet parent.
About: I’ve had cats in my life ever since I was a little girl. I love taking care of these energetic fur balls! We have one currently, his name is Chewy (short for Chewbacca) and I love him sooo much! I have also pet sat for some kitties before! Her name was Jean and the owner said she was shy around new people but she would come up to me and lay with me and purr! Gosh she was so cute! I just love taking care of all animals so much!! All kinds 🤭
About: I’ve had 3 dogs of my own, cared for and trained each one with all my heart! I also care of the neighbors newfies when they’re out of town. I’m currently working part-time at the hospital as a PCT, and full-time nursing student Monday’s & Tuesday’s 9am-2:30pm, Wednesday’s & Thursday’s 9am-11:50am. I’d be willing to use my free time for some extra money to get through school! And it’s a bonus I get to spend my time with furry friends! My dog has a long lead from her doghouse to the yard so whenever we let her outside she can roam, and a collar/leash when we take her for walks. It all depends on how the client would like me to care for their pets, I’m comfortable with it all.
“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!!❤️”
About: My cat journey started about 11 years ago when I cat sat for a friend who had medical issues. I couldn’t resist the wonderfulness of having a cat so I adopted 2! My girls have enjoyed life with me for the last 10 years. They definitely keep my life interesting!
About: I’ve taken care of many animals throughout my teen to adult years. I volunteered at a rescue taking care of mostly the cats. I’ve previously helped rescue kittens and dogs. I’ve always had animals around me. I’m a very big animal lover. I currently have 2 cats and 2 dogs and cat sit a kitten from time to time. I give the cats baths maybe once a month and the dogs weekly and I routinely walk the dogs. I watch the dogs while they’re outside while also giving them extra love. I love taking dogs on walks. I play with cats and even bring along toys that I know my cats love.
About: I treat every pet like family and make sure they get the same love and attention they’re used to at home. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages—from playful puppies who need consistency and training reinforcement to senior pets who may need extra patience, slow walks, or medication. I focus on keeping routines consistent, giving plenty of enrichment and exercise, and making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. *I have experience in drawing and administering insulin shots for cats.
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was a kid. The least I can do is give back to the animals that help us the most in times of need. Be their relief and protect as they do with us. My schedule is pretty flexible! I make time for the fur babies! Maintaining a close eye on the fur baby to make sure they are okay and don’t need anything at the moment. Always making sure the animal is being taken care of, is my first priority. Especially senior dogs that require more care and attention, the better for me because patience is one of the fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22). I take care of my dog daily. I take her on walks/runs to make sure she and I get some exercise and it helps with our zoomies HAHA :) I always make sure doors are locked and they are always within eyesight view whenever I have my hands full with the fur babies to prevent a sneak escape. Leash is always on before going out in public. Making sure all human food is away from pet to prevent toxin ingestion.
About: I have pet sit for dogs, cats, horses, donkeys and chickens. I care for animals as if they are my own. I have worked at pet stores and started learning about dog training. I am working full time remotely so I have lots of time to help your pets with their needs! I am available most every day with notice! I will give your pets as much attention as they want and need. I will take them on walks, play with them, and protect them as if they are my own.
About: I've taken care of children and pets for about 7 years now. I have my own pets, a dog and a cat. Shepard mix named Milo, and a cat named Judah. I look forward to all the pets! I'm currently working four days a week and have plenty of time to spend loving and caring for your precious babies! I really love it! In my clients home, I follow detailed, and not so detailed instructions well. I have a natural instinct for what is needed and what is not needed. I like to follow the desires of the owner.

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.
About: For me, pet care has never been just a job—it's been a lifelong passion. I was raised in a family of professional trainers and boarders, where I learned from an early age how to properly care for dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs. We also spent countless hours working alongside local shelters, helping dogs build confidence and prepare for their forever homes. Professionally, I have over 20 years of experience working in boarding, training assistance, behavioral rehabilitation, and pet care. In 2012, I began my career as a professional dog groomer and later became certified to groom both dogs and cats. In 2020, I became certified to train new groomers as they worked toward their professional certifications. Today, I combine all of that experience to provide a calm, loving, and individualized experience for every pet in my care. My Specialties I specialize in creating fear-free, low-stress experiences built on patience, trust, and compassion. Some of my areas of expertise include: • Fear-free handling and grooming • Trauma rehabilitation grooming for pets who cannot safely visit traditional salons due to fear, anxiety, or behavioral concerns • Senior pet care • Puppy care and socialization • Pets with medical or mobility challenges • Basic training and reinforcement of good manners • Administering medications while carefully monitoring for symptoms or side effects One of my greatest passions is helping fearful dogs learn that grooming and handling don't have to be scary. Rather than forcing pets through services, I work at their pace, building trust over time with the goal of helping them become comfortable and confident again. Many of my clients come to me after being turned away from traditional grooming salons due to behavioral or medical concerns. What Your Pet Can Expect I strive to make every stay feel like a vacation with family rather than simply boarding. Your pet may enjoy: • Daily walks (typically 2-4 per day, while following your normal routine whenever possible) • Plenty of one-on-one attention and affection • Playtime, enrichment, and exercise • Trips to the dog park (with your permission and only if appropriate for your pet) • Picture, video, and message updates throughout their stay • A calm, loving home environment where they are treated like family One unique tradition many pets come to love is bedtime story time. It may sound unusual, but quietly reading aloud has helped many anxious dogs relax before bed. I've even seen it help dogs experiencing storm anxiety or fear of loud noises settle more comfortably. Routine is incredibly important to me. If your pet has a specific schedule, feeding routine, medication plan, or bedtime ritual, I'll do everything possible to maintain it while they're in my care. Because of my experience working with behavioral and medical cases, I also pay close attention to subtle changes in your pet's behavior, mobility, appetite, and overall well-being. If I notice anything concerning, I'll communicate with you immediately and act quickly in your pet's best interest. Communication & Grooming I believe communication is one of the most important parts of pet care. The more I know about your pet's personality, routines, preferences, and medical history, the better experience I can provide. In return, you'll receive detailed updates about how they're doing, including behavior, activities, and anything I notice that may be helpful for you to know. During boarding or daycare stays, I'm also happy to reinforce basic training and offer guidance on grooming maintenance, body language, and behavioral changes that may strengthen your bond with your pet at home. Professional grooming services are available for pets staying in my care. Grooming recommendations, pricing, and service completion depend on your pet's size, coat condition, medical needs, and stress level. My philosophy is simple: I will never force a pet through a service. Their comfort, trust, and emotional well-being always come first. Booking Information To help protect my home while still providing every pet with the highest level of care, the estimated price for boarding and daycare includes a refundable cleaning/security fee. This fee is fully refunded after your pet's stay provided there is no excessive damage or extraordinary cleaning required beyond normal pet messes. I believe this allows me to continue offering a clean, safe, and comfortable environment for every guest while being fair to both pet parents and my home. My goal is simple: every pet should leave my care feeling safe, loved, understood, and excited to come back. I am generally home all day. I do work as a groomer for pets that are unable to got to salons, but I do this from home as well. So your pets will have round the clock love and care. You will need to provide any food and specific treats if your pet has a favorite or dietary restrictions/allergies. Pets are family. I will personally take them for walks throughout the day for fresh air and exercise, play with them and ensure they feel comfortable and lived while you are away. I do offer creating services, however, depending on the size of your dog, you may have to supply the crate. You pet will always be treated like family, but the details of their routine and activities will depend on your instructions. I respect that different lifestyles require different things (i.e crating vs free roam, scheduled feeding vs grazing, scheduled walks/potty breaks vs whenever they want to go out, etc.) and will maintain that sense of normalcy as much as possible. If you opt for grooming, and I am able to comfortably groom your dog, grooming will take place 1-2 days before your return. That way they have time to decompress after, and if they are stressed for parts, it gives leeway to do little bits over time.
About: My experience is a unique blend of a long-time educational and research background and 47 years of dedicated canine care, providing a professional practice rooted in deep knowledge and a lifetime of devotion. I offer specialized expertise in the full spectrum of a dog’s life, from the joyful, structured development of raising my current puppy, Oliver Lane, from 10 weeks old, to the tender, complex management of my late two elderly 15-year-old babies. This dual experience means I am equally skilled at navigating puppy milestones and providing the specialized medical and palliative care required for seniors. I apply the same discipline from my 25-year career to maintain a structured 24/7 routine, ensuring that every pet—regardless of age—benefits from a calm, intuitive, and highly organized environment filled with family-level love. SPECIALIZED PET CAR: After a 25-year career as a doctoral-level educational professional, I have transitioned to a full-time schedule dedicated to dog care. Maintaining a 24/7 routine for my own 2-year-old fur child, Oliver Lane, affords me the unique flexibility to adapt to your dog's specific scheduling needs. I provide smoke-free, hypoallergenic, flea- and tick-conscious boarding in my pet-friendly home, designed with easy-clean flooring for comfort and hygiene. Dogs enjoy a full acre of play space in a welcoming neighborhood with secure neighboring fences for a safe, social environment. Crating is available only if requested, part of a routine, or needed for training/transitional support. Verifiable shot records are required for any service. Transportation is available in my Ford Explorer “Mini-Hotel,” featuring climate-controlled comfort, orthopedic blankets, toys, and premium treats. With 25 years of leadership experience and a lifetime of animal care, I provide 24/7 active supervision, ensuring every guest is safe, loved, and treated like family. For everyone’s safety, please let me know your dog’s current flea/tick prevention status. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are always my top priority.

“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.”

I do work as a groomer for pets that are unable to got to salons, but I do this from home as well. So your pets will have round the clock love and care. You will need to provide any food and specific treats if your pet has a favorite or dietary restrictions/allergies. Pets are family. I will personally take them for walks throughout the day for fresh air and exercise, play with them and ensure they feel comfortable and lived while you are away. I do offer creating services, however, depending on the size of your dog, you may have to supply the crate. You pet will always be treated like family, but the details of their routine and activities will depend on your instructions. I respect that different lifestyles require different things (i.e crating vs free roam, scheduled feeding vs grazing, scheduled walks/potty breaks vs whenever they want to go out, etc.) and will maintain that sense of normalcy as much as possible. If you opt for grooming, and I am able to comfortably groom your dog, grooming will take place 1-2 days before your return. That way they have time to decompress after, and if they are stressed for parts, it gives leeway to do little bits over time.
“We were nervous about leaving Ace, but Luie assured us that Ace was in good hands and that was the truth! Luie was very attentive and communicated with us all weekend. Luie will be our go-to whenever we travel.”
About: I have taken care of an array of animals and have a trusted eye for any underlying issues that may arise. I have taken care of elder dogs and pups who are only a few hours old. I understand how stressful and worrisome it can be as a parent of an animal who needs a lot of attention, to have to trust another with the care and detail you would give. I am here for you! Your fur babies comfort and health is always at the top of my priority list! That is a guarantee! My fiancé and I just recently moved to Delaware from Florida to help out as a caregiver for a family member. He is the primary caregiver, we both are going to school but our availability is based around our work schedules. In which my schedule is wide open! Please let me know if and how I can help you! We unfortunately cannot have any additional pups or cats at our apartment because of the sensitivity of our caregiver ship. We have medical supplies in designated areas of course but sometimes the elderly lady we take care of will drop her pills and we just don’t want to put an animal at risk by boarding them with us at the moment.
About: With over 10 years of experience breeding, raising and caring for dogs, I have worked extensively with Rottweilers, Pitbulls, Shihpoohs, Shihtzus, and Frenchies.
