Michele is a wonderful dog-sitter! She is very knowledgeable about dogs. We met in advance of my dog’s stay so Michele could ensure compatibility and understand his needs and routine. My dog has separation anxiety, and Michele was extremely caring and accommodating. She sends photos and messages frequently. This was my first experience using Rover, and I have booked another sitting with her for May 2026. Thank you, Mickey!

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

Will was so great to our gal! He has a great property that is great for dogs who like to run around and kept us updated the whole time with pictures, what they did, and how our dog was doing. He was also very responsive and considerate of our dog’s needs. This was our first time using Rover and we were so impressed with how smooth the process was and how well they took care of our dog.

She took my baby on an adventure with lots of trips and care rides which he loves. I told her what he likes and didn’t and she made sure to do all the things he loves. In every picture and video she sent I saw how happy my baby boy was. Definitely booking with her again! Thank you so much he had so much fun and you showed him so much love. 😊😊

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. My dog Benny is very friendly and loves doggie company! I am available for daily dog walking Monday thru Friday and petsitting 7 days per week. I am available for boarding as schedule permits as I only take 1 dog, dog family, at a time. I have a home in Milton with a 6 foot privacy fence. I have 1 pup, a Yorkie poo who is used to welcoming fun pup friends. I am never out of my home more than 4 hours when I have pup boarders. Your pup(s) is my priority and treated like a member of my family.

About: Experience with multiple breeds of dogs. My heart is owned by our 5 boys and our 3 furbabies 16 year old Siberian Husky named Lola, a 2 year old husky/german Shepard mix named Skye and a 13 year old Australian shepherd named Apache . Firmly believe that pets are family and that it’s up to us humans to provide them with the best life possible. Without a doubt, I will treat your pet family members as if they were my own, with an abundance of love and attention. I know what it’s like to have a good pet sitter and I’ve been very fortunate to know what it’s like to have a peaceful vacation without worries, let me be the one to ease your mind when it comes to your pets care. I’m always doing something doggie related. In addition to Rover we also offer dog grooming so we stay pretty busy with the pooches every day of the week. I have crates to accommodate all sizes of pups for those that are crate trained. Those that need a human bed to sleep in, I’ve got plenty of those as well. Huge yard for lots of exercise.

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: Hi, I've been around pets for the last 15ish years with that I've learned that not all dogs are the same and will react the same way towards everyone. I have worked with dogs who were previously in shelters, nervous dogs, fearful dogs, and anxious dogs. I have experience dog sitting small and big dogs. I have potty trained my own dogs and have helped friends potty train as well. I'm comfortable with bathing, brushing, feeding, walking, and interacting with dogs. I have worked with special needs dogs and am comfortable changing their diapers, applying creams and ointments, and applying wraps or bandages if needed. I'm comfortable feeding, cleaning litter boxes, and brushing cats. I've also taken care of small reptiles like bearded dragons and geckos, as well as birds like cockatiels and parakeets. I just moved to the area and have flexible availability. I am available for drop ins and walks throughout the day. No time is too early or too late. I'm open to last minute drop ins or walks as long as it is communicated. I'm great at sticking to your pets eating schedule as well as establishing routines if needed. I'm able to clean up after your pet, feed them, interact with them, and stimulate their brain as well.

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.

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: I’ve loved animals my entire life and got my first dog at 10 years old. Caring for him taught me responsibility, patience, and the deep bond we share with our pets. I have over 8 years of experience caring for senior dogs and 5+ years providing dog sitting services for private clients. Many families trust me repeatedly with their pets because I treat every dog as if they were my own. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs — from playful pups who love walks and attention to more relaxed dogs who just want companionship and cuddles. Small and medium dogs have mostly been under my care and only some larger breeds. My goal is always to keep your dog happy, safe, and stress-free while following their normal routine as closely as possible. I understand how important consistency is, especially for senior dogs. I’m reliable, attentive, and communicative, and I know peace of mind matters when you’re away. I provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, overnight care, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to help. Creating a calm, loving environment is very important to me, and I want both you and your pet to feel completely comfortable. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I work from home on my own time so I am available pretty much daily unless I have other clients in my schedule. Requests in advance are very much appreciated. Services in your home will be as the you request, I aim to please you and your pet! I live in a tiny home that shares the fenced in backyard with my in laws who have an older toy poodle, a Chorkie and a calico cat who I will keep separate from your pet if you’re looking for daycare and overnight stays. My home is small so overnight and day cares are limited for very large dogs.

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 am very responsible and will care for your house just as well as your pets! I know it takes a lot to entrust someone in your home so I won’t let you regret it.

About: I will love and take care of your pets as if they were my own. I love to go out and play with pets I care for. I would dog sit when I was in high school for different families. Those families loved how attentive I was, and as a result they would refer me to their friends. I’m always available for you buddies! You and me both know that your pets are more than pets, theyre family. You don’t want just anyone taking care of family. I do currently work full time, however I have a job that is extremely flexible. I set my own hours, including when I am in my office. This pairs perfectly with animal care and house care because I can come and go as frequently as needed. Due to my open schedule I can be available for any needs your pets may have. I prefer to let the client tell me exactly what they want for their pet. I like to keep your life as simple as possible while giving you peace of mind by following any requests you have. If you need your animal crated, if you want them roaming, whatever is asked you can expect to be done.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life! We’ve had cats and reptiles before as well! I’ve dog sat for the past year now for a family every now and again when they need me! I’ve done it for a whole week or just a night out! Feeding, letting outside, walks, playing and of course some cuddling and pets! House sitting is obviously involved and I am ready for whatever you need me to do around the house while you are gone! I can’t wait to meet you and you’re animal friend! I’m available any weekday anytime around 8am-6pm except on Tuesdays I need to be home by 5pm! Weekends would need a heads up and could only work until 2pm OR could only work at night! I will not be boarding animals at my house! I do not have the facilities for that and also have 3 crazy beagles at home who would not appreciate another animal in the house!

This was our first time using Rebeka and she was phenomenal. Not only did she make arrangements at work to walk my dog super last minute but she was very sweet and conscious of my dog’s anxiety around other dogs. We will definitely be using her again! I have already referred her to family and friends.

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

He was also very responsive and considerate of our dog’s needs. This was our first time using Rover and we were so impressed with how smooth the process was and how well they took care of our dog. Would highly highly recommend.

Amy is an angle. She was so down to earth and I felt at ease leaning my boy with her. She kept me updated throughout the entire day with pictures and videos. She took my baby on an adventure with lots of trips and care rides which he loves. I told her what he likes and didn’t and she made sure to do all the things he loves. In every picture and video she sent I saw how happy my baby boy was. Definitely booking with her again! Thank you so much he had so much fun and you showed him so much love. 😊😊

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.
