Tasha provided great dog boarding care for our dog Amber recently. Amber had a great vacation while we were away with a large fenced back yard to romp with fellow dog buddies. Tasha provided plenty of feedback with daily photos. She is a true dog lover. Two thumbs up on her care. Stan

Donna and Calvin were fantastic hosts! I knew my older Pomeranian was in great hands and I didn’t have to worry about him while I was away. Donna sent regular pictures and updates. He went on daily walks, and was given special attention with food because he doesn’t eat right away like other dogs. I highly recommend Donna and Calvin!

About: You can trust me to take excellent care of your pet! As well as owning my own pets most of my life (dogs, cats, ferret, bird, rabbits, etc.), I also have a Bachelor of Science degree in pre-veterinary medicine. I have pet-sat for several friends and clients, volunteered at shelters, worked at veterinary clinics, boarding facilities, and for a professional dog walking / cat sitting company. You can rest easy as your pet will be safe in my care. I follow directions well and get the details right! Why I love dog walking and sitting: I have been a dog lover since the day I was born. My first dog, Chief, helped raise me! Since then, I have owned a dog most of my life. Some have called me the "dog-whisperer". I have a pretty good perception of dogs and connect very easily with most. My last dog, Wendell, was a 150 lb. mastiff whom I adopted when he was 4.5 years old. He had never been socialized and was scared of most people, so in the six years we were together, I gained a lot of first-hand experience working through behavioral issues in a very large and strong breed. Our current dog is Lucy, a happy-go-lucky bull terrier who is deaf. She loves every living being! I’m also comfortable taking care of cats and other pets. My experience administering medication: I've given lots of oral meds and various ointments, eye drops, ear drops, etc. My schedule is pretty flexible. I’m typically available any day of the week and can do early mornings and late evenings if needed. Let me know your needs and I will do my best to accommodate! ONE DOG FAMILY AT A TIME Boarding and Doggie Day Care: It will only be your dog(s) and our one dog staying at our house. We have a secure, fenced yard, a doggie door, and a covered back patio with doggie beds perfect for lounging in the sun or shade. Our friendly bull terrier, Lucy, will happily keep your dog company! We can easily keep your dog in a separate room while we are away from the house if you prefer. Lucy’s dad/my significant other, Pedro, also lives here and also loves animals.

About: I’ve taken care of pups of all sizes for as long as I can remember! I have a soft spot in my heart for senior dogs, but love the energetic puppies too! I work full-time but I’m available everyday that I work after 3pm. The two days that I don’t work, I’m available all day, typically the weekends. I live in an apartment with a large porch and a great sized dog park that any pup would love. When we aren’t outside, my pup hangs out in the living room, but I’m more than happy to use the crate if you are more comfortable! If in-home with your pup, I’ll follow whatever instructions provided to make your pup happy!!

This was our second stay with Jordan, and I realized I never left a review after the first one. However, I definitely should have! As a first time Rover user, in fact the first time ever leaving my 9-year old pup with a stranger, I was incredibly nervous about leaving my dog with someone new. Jordan completely exceeded my expectations. He sent thoughtful updates throughout the stay with a plethora of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind, and it was obvious that my dog was being loved and well cared for. Not only is Jordan amazing, but his family is so kind and welcoming. You can truly tell they care about the dogs they watch and treat them like part of the family. Knowing my pup was safe, happy, and surrounded by so much love made all the difference. I can't thank Jordan enough for taking such great care of my dog, Lily. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and communicative, I highly recommend booking with him. We'll definitely be back!

The best petsitter around! I had to leave town last minute for work. She helped me out so much. Going above and beyond, letting me know what was going on at my apartment. Saved me so much worry and stress. Other sitters have not even seen my cat, because he hides under the bed when strangers stop by. Kim sent pictures of Alfie every day. Thanks again. I will definitely ask for your help again in the future if you are available.

Her credentials are what drew me to her and from day one (the meet and greet) I knew she’d be the one. Loki my male cat doesn’t warm up to anyone for at least a week of them coming around and he went right to her. He could sense her kind soul. I have never hired a pet sitter before this but I will definitely hire Taryn again. She went above and beyond. I had to have major surgery and was in the hospital for 7 days and it was comforting to know that my cats Stella and Loki were in terrific loving hands. Love Love Love her!!!

About: I am a 23 year old animal lover servicing the Wilmington area. I have had animals from a very young age and have experience with bunnies, cats, dogs, fish, and small animals. I am very new to the Wilmington area and still in between jobs right now so my schedule is pretty flexible at the moment until I find something more stable. I take pride in caring for animals through my entire life. I have had my own animals since the day I was born, and often watch family friends and neighbors animals. I have lots of experience when it comes to animals as I have a large number of pets myself.

About: We have been taking care of dogs since 2018! We are so enjoying it!! Hubby walks the dogs and I cuddle and play! It's a win win for your fur baby! For doggie day care we are available between 8 am and 6pm Monday through Friday. Would love long term . We do have one small dog. For boarding we are available both weekdays and weekends. We have a nice fenced-in backyard and my husband takes the dogs out for walks when possible! When that option isn't available,they have dedicated playtime in the yard.We have one dog that is not initially playful but takes a while to warm up but he does typically! I do require a meet and greet before committing and for pets to show proof of rabies shots,heartworm and flea and tic treatments. I work part time outside the home but my hubby works part time in the home so rarely are we both gone at the same time. I have a fenced in yard and my husband tries to walk our dog daily.Typically will hit the area walking trails. If necessary, he is willing to walk animals separately(older dog who can not walk as long or dogs who have health challenges)Our dog is aloof and takes a bit of time to adjust but usually does. We are attentive to this and supervise very closely until we see how things are going to be. We own both a large and small dog crate and can separate them if needed

Bud looked like he had an absolute blast with Jerry and Bud got taken on so many new adventures which he looked like he absolutely loved. Jerry was even able to pick up Bud for me which saved me so much time that morning and gave him a bath for me before I went to go pick up Bud later that day! Jerry is literally so amazing and I will definitely book with him again in the future!

About: I have many years of experience in rescuing, sitting, and rehabbing animals from domestic to wild. I love what I do and my children (ages 11-12) have been brought up the same way. They are very knowledgeable and passionate about all animals! While in my care, you can expect individualized compassionate care! I make sure your fur baby/s have fun, feel loved, safe and blend like one of the pack! They can roam free in our fenced in back or front yard, lounge on the screened in deck or cozy up on the couches inside with many plushy dog beds throughout our home. I don't crate unless requested so roaming through the house is just what they will do. Fully supervised of course! Our home is literally their home! I can also offer to help with anxiety, trauma and or sibling rivalry at no extra cost. It’s my passion to help animals :) I have lots of energy, free time and would love to give your pet/s every moment of the day! Your baby/s will feel right at home with all the love and attention received :) When it comes to pet sitting my kids (ages 11-12) and I are a full time team and we work together to make sure your baby/s are fully supervised, entertained, and even spoiled! We have a big fenced back and front yard, a screened in deck, lounge areas throughout the house, grain free kibbles, home made treats, filtered water, plushy beds and secured home with cameras and security system. We strive to give your baby/s a safely wonderful and comfy stay with total peace of mind for you!

About: For 12 years I have taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and birds. I love animals so much and I always love helping out someone with their animals so they don’t have to board them or if you work a long day and need me to give them a walk. I can be very flexible with when you need me and I promise I will treat your animals as I would my own! I am currently working part time right now, so I can definitely be flexible with hours that fit your schedule. If you need me a day or night, I can be there to help with your animals! I have a completely fenced in backyard that is almost half an acre. My two dogs Lulu and Fez are sweethearts, and they have always gotten along with any dog or cat that I’ve brought over to the house.

2 day daycare stay: Katie was ABOVE and beyond not only caring for my crazy Millie girl (boxer/pitt) but also as a person. She was such a joy to talk to at drop off and pickup, and kept me up to-do-date with pictures and videos during Millie’s stay. I would hands down recommend her to anyone as well as use her again. If only she lived closer to Charlotte, all three of my dogs would be with her everyday! THANK YOU, Katie!!!

About: I treat every pet as if they are my own. I have grown up with dogs and have my own. I’ll sent photos and updates and I am quick to respond. I work from home so I can hang out all day with them, take walks during the day, cuddles, play time, etc. I will make sure they are loved and taken care of. If they are having a sleepover, I have a yard beside my house I can let them run and I live in a neighborhood where I can walk them.** I have a dog of my own that LOVES new friends and to play. He is featured in my profile. If boarding at my house, dog has to get along** I’m also available to come let out and take your dog(s) on a walk throughout the day.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every size since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to feed, play/exercise, bathe/groom, and love their pets while traveling, moving, or working. Are the morning walks not cutting it for your pup? Do they still have too much energy during the day? Now introducing “Dog Jogs!” Instead of a walk around the block, I will take your dog on a couple mile jog, solo or with other pups, to use up that puppy energy so they will sleep all day while you’re working. Additionally, I work from home and have plenty of time throughout the day for regular exercise and bathroom breaks. I live in a dog friendly community on the first floor with direct access to a large, grassy backyard. Your pet will be looked after at all times during the day, and would never be left alone. I do not have my own pets at this time, and your fur baby would receive all the love and attention it deserves.

About: I work from home, so your pup gets constant care and company. I have experience with both playful puppies and gentle senior dogs, tailoring my care to their needs. Plus, our friendly dog makes every guest feel right at home! I’m able to give pets attention, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. Morning and evening walks, yard play sessions, and plenty of snuggles are built right into my routine—so your pet will feel loved and cared for every moment they’re here. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, comfortable environment with a fully fenced yard for outdoor time and plenty of supervised play. I follow each pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, and rest to help them feel at home. They get lots of attention, exercise, and snuggles—plus playtime with our friendly dog if they’re social. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with respect and stick to the same schedule, rules, and routines their pet is used to. My goal is always to keep them happy, healthy, and stress-free while you’re away.

Walker is dependable, professional, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. My dog gets excited every time they arrive, which says everything I need to know. Communication is excellent, with updates and photos that make me feel connected even when I’m away. Walker is always punctual, attentive to my dog’s needs, and goes above and beyond to ensure every walk is safe, fun, and enriching. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy who will care for your pet like their own, Jennifer is the perfect choice. Five stars!

About: I’ve always connected well with animals, especially dogs. I’ve dog walked and watched others’ animals from a very young age. I was 22 when I decided to become a dog trainer. I was fortunate enough to attend one of the best programs in the country at Animal Behavior College, with a certificate in canine behavior therapy & a concentration in rehabilitating shelter dogs. I’m also qualified to train emotional support animals, which has been so rewarding. I chose this as a career path because of how much I genuinely love all living things. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends and give them the best care they could ask for! I own my own business, so I make my own schedule. I can tend to whatever schedule best suits the animals. I don’t have pets of my own, so that gives me even more flexibility. I always make sure I’m doing my best to care for animals, in any aspect of my life or career. I’m diligent in making sure their feeding, walking and play schedules are upheld promptly, and that their routines stay relatively in tact. This is one of the best things you can do to ease a pet’s anxiety about their owners being away. I work as a trainer, which means I’m happy to add on training sessions with your pet while they’re in my care, through my business if that’s something of interest. I’m very amenable to the specifications for each individual animal. Some dogs like to be given affection on the couch for a few minutes each day. Others might enjoy watching the birds in their yard for a while. I’m always happy to attune my care for each dog. When walking a dog, the quality of the walks are just as important as their frequency. Dogs require a certain level of mental stimulation each day, and ten minutes of sniffing is enough to satisfy most dog’s needs. They need the sniffing as much as the exercise. Your dog will be given ample time to sniff and “read the doggy newspaper”, as well as get some great exercise. I always make sure the animal has gotten everything that they need from the experience.

I’ve successfully managed households with multiple pets—such as four dogs and a bird at once—and specialize in providing attentive, hands-on care for senior pets and those with medical needs. I offer in-home pet sitting to ensure a smooth, low-stress experience for your pets while you’re away. I pride myself on being reliable, respectful, and fully committed to the well-being of every animal in my care. I’m currently transitioning out of my previous role, which means I’m available full-time for pet care. I’m excited to dedicate my time and energy to caring for your pets with the attention and reliability they deserve! I care for pets like they’re my own, giving them love, attention, and consistency right in the comfort of their home. I go above and beyond to make sure every animal feels safe, happy, and loved—because when I’m your sitter, your pet gets the best.

I have experience caring for my grandparents’ cats, working with cats at an SPCA, and looking after dogs for family and friends. I know every pet has their own routine, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

I prioritize a secure and happy environment for your pet, making sure all safety requirements are met. Communication is also super important for me and I provide picture/video updates throughout the visit.

About: Growing up, I have always loved animals and cared for neighbors and family's pets while they were away. In high school, I started reaching out to neighborhood groups and have now sat for animals as small as fish, bunnies, and ferrets, to as big as pitbulls and even the occasional horse! I have a kitty of my own and will always care for your pets as I do for him! I am in school full-time, so drop-ins and walks work the best for me. Mornings, afternoons, and evenings are available to care for your furry friend! I always make the most of those visits - food, hugs, cuddles, walks, and lots of play time! I always like to ensure any animal feels safe with me when I watch them. Slow and friendly, while confident, movements at first is always my go-to. Any pet always gets the most love and attention while I'm with them, and I leave them feeling cared for and comfortable while their parents are away.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. What started as overnight visits for family friends, quickly grew into referrals and neighbors trusting me with their furry loved ones. Over the past 15 years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with daily walks, administering medications, preparing special diets, and providing individualized care. Most importantly, I bring a fun, playful, and compassionate approach to every pet I meet. They deserve to feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I grew up with 2 Labradors, and currently have a Labrador of my own. I also had 2 cats while I was in college. I currently work part-time as a real estate agent, which means I have plenty of time to give your pups the love, attention, and play they deserve. I am open during the weekday or on most weekends! In Your Home When I care for pets in their own home, I make sure to keep their routine as close to normal as possible. Whether that’s mealtime, walks, medications, or cuddle time. I also give plenty of updates and photos so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. In My Home If your pet is staying with me, they’ll be treated like family. I provide a safe, cozy space with lots of playtime, walks, and snuggles, along with any special food or care instructions you provide. I also have a fully vaccinated Labrador puppy who would love to have a friend to hangout with!

Olivia was so good and so patient with Finn. He has A LOT of energy and is still a puppy but she made me feel comfortable and I knew he would be safe and looked after. Thank you!!

My first experience on rover and Sarah and her family knocked it out of the park. Instantly felt comfortable and knew that my puppers was going to be in good hands. Very responsive and updated me throughout her stay daily. Very attentive and genuinely cared for my sweet girl. Highly recommend.

Steven really helped me out in a pinch when we had to go out of town suddenly. He welcomed our crew of four into his home, including our special needs dachshund whom his youngest son fell in love with him. I would definitely use Steven again. Thanks

About: You can trust me to take excellent care of your pet! As well as owning my own pets most of my life (dogs, cats, ferret, bird, rabbits, etc.), I also have a Bachelor of Science degree in pre-veterinary medicine. I have pet-sat for several friends and clients, volunteered at shelters, worked at veterinary clinics, boarding facilities, and for a professional dog walking / cat sitting company. You can rest easy as your pet will be safe in my care. I follow directions well and get the details right! Why I love dog walking and sitting: I have been a dog lover since the day I was born. My first dog, Chief, helped raise me! Since then, I have owned a dog most of my life. Some have called me the "dog-whisperer". I have a pretty good perception of dogs and connect very easily with most. My last dog, Wendell, was a 150 lb. mastiff whom I adopted when he was 4.5 years old. He had never been socialized and was scared of most people, so in the six years we were together, I gained a lot of first-hand experience working through behavioral issues in a very large and strong breed. Our current dog is Lucy, a happy-go-lucky bull terrier who is deaf. She loves every living being! I’m also comfortable taking care of cats and other pets. My experience administering medication: I've given lots of oral meds and various ointments, eye drops, ear drops, etc. My schedule is pretty flexible. I’m typically available any day of the week and can do early mornings and late evenings if needed. Let me know your needs and I will do my best to accommodate! ONE DOG FAMILY AT A TIME Boarding and Doggie Day Care: It will only be your dog(s) and our one dog staying at our house. We have a secure, fenced yard, a doggie door, and a covered back patio with doggie beds perfect for lounging in the sun or shade. Our friendly bull terrier, Lucy, will happily keep your dog company! We can easily keep your dog in a separate room while we are away from the house if you prefer. Lucy’s dad/my significant other, Pedro, also lives here and also loves animals.

About: I’ve taken care of pups of all sizes for as long as I can remember! I have a soft spot in my heart for senior dogs, but love the energetic puppies too! I work full-time but I’m available everyday that I work after 3pm. The two days that I don’t work, I’m available all day, typically the weekends. I live in an apartment with a large porch and a great sized dog park that any pup would love. When we aren’t outside, my pup hangs out in the living room, but I’m more than happy to use the crate if you are more comfortable! If in-home with your pup, I’ll follow whatever instructions provided to make your pup happy!!

Jenn and her son were so great with my dog, Mugsy. Mugsy is a little nervous around kids, but Jenn’s son was the perfect demeanor to put her at ease. They took Mugsy on plenty of walks and showed her lots of love. I would definitely hire Jenn again in the future for boarding!

Cosette was great with keeping us up to date with pictures and videos throughout my dog's stay. She even gave her a bath on the day we picked her up for us! Thank you Cosette.

This was our second stay with Jordan, and I realized I never left a review after the first one. However, I definitely should have! As a first time Rover user, in fact the first time ever leaving my 9-year old pup with a stranger, I was incredibly nervous about leaving my dog with someone new. Jordan completely exceeded my expectations. He sent thoughtful updates throughout the stay with a plethora of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind, and it was obvious that my dog was being loved and well cared for. Not only is Jordan amazing, but his family is so kind and welcoming. You can truly tell they care about the dogs they watch and treat them like part of the family. Knowing my pup was safe, happy, and surrounded by so much love made all the difference. I can't thank Jordan enough for taking such great care of my dog, Lily. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and communicative, I highly recommend booking with him. We'll definitely be back!

Raquel was amazing!! I was looking for a new dog sitter since we moved and so glad I found her! If you’re looking for a responsive, loving dog sitter with a lovely, clean home and big yard, look no further! She made me feel so comfortable and confident that her and her family would take great care of our dog Rocky.

So grateful we found Emma! Professional and passionate about caring for dogs. She made us feel comfortable and kept in touch sending pictures and text messages. We were cautious as our 13 year old spaniel has not been left with anyone other than family for many years. We’ve already rebooked! Donna
