“Jen was so gentle and encouraging to my dog; she provided a safe and nurturing environment. I was very pleased with that she gave periodic updates, with pictures. My dog made some new doggy friends. The socialization with other dogs was very good for him. I highly recommend Jen to care for your pet.”
“Brooke was awesome with my dog. Being the first time she left with someone outside of our family member, she adjusted well and Brooke was great with her. Thank you Brooke for making me feel at ease with her being with you.”
“It was a pleasure to have Charles and Heather. They were awesome and they kept us in the loop daily. Khloe was well taken care of. I would recommend them. Thank you all again.”
“Jermaine was awesome! Our dog, Reese, is getting older and I feel like a traditional kennel is a little too loud & stressful for her. Leaving her with Jermaine gave us the peace of mind we needed. He was communicative and positive. She came home happy & healthy. We are very grateful and will absolutely use his services again”

““I can’t thank Olinda enough for the amazing care she gave Ollie! From the moment we arrived, I could tell how excited and happy he was to be around her. Her warmth, attentiveness, and genuine love for dogs shine through. It’s such a relief to know Ollie was in such good hands.”
About: I’ve had animals all my life. From dogs to cats to exotics. My pathway in school was for animal science which I have my certification from that class. I also have worked at a vet before so I would say I definitely have some experience! Right now I mostly work from home so I’m pretty flexible. Whether that be for boarding or potty breaks I can pretty much make anything work. I have a section of my yard fenced off so they can just go out and potty but also love to take them for walks in my neighborhood! If they get along with other dogs great! If not I can manage to keep everyone separate if boarding is preferred at my house.
“Brittany’s home is an oasis for dogs. Our girls loved chilling out in their big fenced in yard which they could sunbath or hide out under the shade trees especially the beautifully willow. Brittany is very responsive and without a doubt a true dog and animal lover. Trust that this would be a great place for your furry friends.”

“Brooklyn was wonderful to my two dogs. I was in town for business and traveling with my dogs.

I was traveling from GA to CT and this allowed me to relax would use her again when I return to town.”

“Elizabeth is amazing! Excellent communication and goes above and beyond! She not only took excellent care of my cats, but offered to bring in mail and other household tasks. Will be using again in future trips!”
“Zelle was tremendous! When we first met she put me at ease right away, so friendly and asking such good questions. She really wanted to understand our dogs differing needs. During our absence, she checked in at our agreed upon times and sent lovely pictures at each check-in. It was such a comfort to know my fur babies were cared for so lovingly. Will not hesitate to call on her again.”
“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: Throughout my years of experience, I have taken care of cats through extended periods of time. I have cleaned litter boxes, played with them and fed them twice a day while maintaining my job. I can do that for you as well.
“My pets Daisy and Missy were very happy when Delany would make her daily visits. Delany was always on time and very conscientious with making sure the kitties had fresh food and water and clean litter boxes. Delany went the extra and made sure they had lots of playtime and most important sent me lots of pictures with her update. I’m very happy with the care my pets received with Delany and would love to have her care for my kitties the next time I travel.”
“Lindsey was such a wonderful help. We took a longer trip and were not wanting our cats to be alone all day in between the morning and evening feedings, so she came for midday visits and was great. The cats seemed so at ease when we got home! Thank you Lindsey!”
“Samantha was so good with my 10 year old cat who recently started medication and needs to take it twice a day at very specific times. She came out for a meet and greet on short notice to make sure my cat let her administer her medication before I booked and she really gave me peace of mind for my trip. This was the first time I had used rover and my cat is not used to being by herself so I was really nervous but Samantha was always punctual, spent the full 30 minutes twice a day playing with her, brushing her, and giving her all the pets, and sent updates consistently so I definitely recommend Samantha! Can’t thank Samantha enough!”
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.
“Wonderful experience. My dogs loved Kara and she dod the best job caring for them while we were away. Overall a lovely animal lover amd we would be thrilled to work with in the future! Highly recommend!!!”
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’m comfortable caring for cats with all kinds of personalities, from social and affectionate to shy and independent. I understand that cats often need time and space to feel comfortable, so I always let them approach at their own pace. I’m happy to handle feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, enrichment, and plenty of affection when they want it. I’ll also follow your cat’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe and relaxed while you’re away.
About: Ive owned dogs and cats since I was seven years old and grew up around animals my entire life. I currently have two large dogs and one medium dog that I trained and take care of. I have house sat for three families, with two medium to large dogs and a family with a medium dog and a puppy, each for a week at a time. I am comfortable with all animals including reptiles and can confidently handle large dogs. More than the physical aspects of caring for animals, I love to love on them with lots of pets and affection. Many animals are drawn to me despite being hesistant or fearful of people. I have a passion for training and correcting dogs with a calm and patient demeanor. I enjoy learning and studying dog body language to strengthen my understanding, care, and training for them. I am following my passion of working with animals, starting with work here on Rover. I am striving to someday start my own training and boarding business.
About: I currently have my own cat who originally was a feral cat. I grew up with at least one dog and one cat at all times. I help watch my sister's cats and I have given her older cat liquid medication by mouth for pain. I have experience with really friendly cats but also very skittish cats like 2 of the 3 cats my sister owns that I watch. I have helped wrap a cat's paw when with help. I'm currently in college for Vet Tech and love working with animals.

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 have experience bathing all types of cats and know when to have boundaries set. And it’s a win win if you like your cat area to be neat again because I love cleaning and organizing things

“Amazing experience! We couldn’t have asked for better top notch care and service for our pup. Thank you Jennifer! We would recommend her to anyone and will use her services again!”
About: Active Dog Loving Grandparents We enjoyed the pleasure of having pets our entire lives, they have brought us a sense of peace and joy and best of all unconditional love. Our best friends have been Boston Terrier’s, German Sheppard’s, American Bulldogs and Boxers. They are all unique in their personalities but all love to be loved, just like us. We are retired so one of us are at home all the time. We live on a great fence property with an awesome nieghborhood that we love to take walks around multiple times a day (weather permitting.) The dogs usually have a grand time taking a run around the property and playing. Should it be too warm of course they enjoy the air conditioning ? Now that our children are grown and married with children/dogs we occasionally keep their Boxer brother (Duke) and sister (Honey) and our grandchildren too. You can feel safe leaving your pets in our care. We will look after them and love them like our own! In fact, they may not want to leave as our grand-dogs do? Can provide a bath prior to your return if you would like. Look forward to meeting you and your baby soon. Grandma J

“Elizabeth was a life savor! I had last minute reached out to see if she could watch my puppy and she was able to accommodate to do so. I felt extremely comfortable leaving my girl with her! She’s super friendly and you could tell she has a genuine love for animals. She was sending me pictures throughout the day and I could tell Nova was having a great time. I would recommend Elizabeth to anyone! Thank you so much for taking great care of my crazy pup Elizabeth!”

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.

“Liz took great care of Cooper while I was away for a short trip. She did several drop in visits each day, kept me updated, and made the whole experience very easy.

I also have a family dog that I have taught to do tricks and helped potty train. I currently work part-time at a grocery store. Most times I work 8am to 2pm so I can take care of your animals before I go to work and after. Even if the there needs to be a drop in, I could take care during working hours as well. Every animal will be treated with love and care. I will stick to a routine that the owner may have and if crating is needed I could do so safely for both me and your pet.

About: Ive owned dogs and cats since I was seven years old and grew up around animals my entire life. I currently have two large dogs and one medium dog that I trained and take care of. I have house sat for three families, with two medium to large dogs and a family with a medium dog and a puppy, each for a week at a time. I am comfortable with all animals including reptiles and can confidently handle large dogs. More than the physical aspects of caring for animals, I love to love on them with lots of pets and affection. Many animals are drawn to me despite being hesistant or fearful of people. I have a passion for training and correcting dogs with a calm and patient demeanor. I am dedicated to learning and studying dog body language to strengthen my understanding, care, and training for them. I am following my passion of working with animals, starting with work here on Rover. I am striving to someday start my own training and boarding business. I am available 4 days per week for all of your pet care needs. I am able to spend long amounts of time with your pet as needed. Weekends and most weekdays can be available upon request even if they are marked unavailable depending on the animal and needs. I do not currently offer any pet services in my home. While in your home, I am trustworthy and honest. I always treat all animals as my own and show lots of care and affection! I will let the animals out, feed them, water them, exercise and play with them. And of course give them lots of pets! If your pet makes a mess or has an accident, I will always clean it up and let you know.
“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: 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 work at a pet store, have pets of my own, and volunteer at shelters, giving me experience with all types of animals. I'm comfortable with puppies, seniors, and special needs pets, and I treat every animal with the same love and care as my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Between my job at the pet store, caring for my own pets, and volunteering at shelters, I’m consistently involved with animals. I’m flexible on evenings and weekends, and I can adjust my schedule to make sure your pet gets the attention and care they need. I prioritize safety and comfort whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment, free of hazards and full of love. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, exercise, and any special instructions. In a client’s home, I respect their space and ensure pets feel secure by keeping their routine consistent. I always keep a close eye on behavior and health, and I’m confident handling a variety of situations calmly and responsibly.
About: We are a loving home to our fur babies and yours. My husband and I have taken in many rescues over the last 25 years. We treat them as family not animals. We have a 4lb chihuahua, an 8lb chihuahua, a cockatiel and a parakeet. I am home full time and can give your pets the care and love needed. We live in Satterfield in Felton Delaware . Willing to work with whatever your needs to make you and your dog or cat feel safe and comfortable. Your pet must be up to date on vaccines and housebroken. I welcome puppies who are still in training. I require a meet and greet before booking. I want you and I to both feel comfortable about caring for your pet. Please note my rates for boarding are for 24 hours.If your booking goes beyond 24 hours you must book at extended stay rate. Looking forward to meeting you and your babies soon! I am retired and home most of the time. My schedule is very flexible. Your pet will only be left alone for a quick trip to the store or a scheduled appointment. I have a fenced yard. I will do everything possible to keep your fur babies safe. I love them as my own. I am retired and home most of the time. Pets are always considered in my schedule. My husband works locally and is home very often. All pets are closely watched and cared for. They are never left alone for longer than 2-3 hours. They are only outside supervised in a fenced in yard.
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: I’ve had animals all my life. From dogs to cats to exotics. My pathway in school was for animal science which I have my certification from that class. I also have worked at a vet before so I would say I definitely have some experience! Right now I mostly work from home so I’m pretty flexible. Whether that be for boarding or potty breaks I can pretty much make anything work. I have a section of my yard fenced off so they can just go out and potty but also love to take them for walks in my neighborhood! If they get along with other dogs great! If not I can manage to keep everyone separate if boarding is preferred at my house.
“Brittany’s home is an oasis for dogs. Our girls loved chilling out in their big fenced in yard which they could sunbath or hide out under the shade trees especially the beautifully willow. Brittany is very responsive and without a doubt a true dog and animal lover. Trust that this would be a great place for your furry friends.”
