“My dog stayed with Sue-Ling, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She took such wonderful care of my dog. Kind, patient, and really attentive to her needs. It was clear from the start that Sue-Ling truly loves animals and treats them like her own. There was a small health issue while I was away, but Sue-Ling handled everything calmly and responsibly. She kept me updated right away and made sure my dog was comfortable and safe. I felt completely reassured knowing she was in such good hands. I’m really grateful for the care and attention Sue-Ling gave to my dog, and I would absolutely trust her to look after her again anytime. She’s amazing!”
“This is my third time having Jerry watch my 2 girls! He is my go-to when I am out of town because he is responsible, communicative, and most importantly treats my girls like his own. They always come back happy and tired!”
“Andrew was great with communicating, ensured Rupert was safe and comfortable, and got lots of walks! He also sent update photos so I knew Rupert was enjoying himself and administered Rupert’s daily medications without a hitch! 10/10 would recommend!”
“Amy was awesome! It was my first time leaving Bailey with anyone other than family. I expected to be nervous but I felt very confident and at ease, especially when Amy sent me photos and videos of Bailey hanging out with her and her family. Bailey did great and I will definitely be calling Amy again when I need a sitter!”
“Taylor took great care of our 17 year old senior pup. She has an array of age-related needs, and he made sure she was comfortable, eating regularly, and getting outside...and all of those things are challenging for her at this point. I would highly recommend him!”
“Allie V and Billy hit it off like long lost pals. Billy became a member of the family right away. Long walks and plenty of close attention. We are booking another stay w Allie V in 2 weeks!”
“Hilary took such great care of our girl! Sadie has a lot of quirks and takes time to warm up and Hilary was patient and understanding. I had a lot of peace of mind while we were away on our trip knowing she was well taken care of!”
“Rachel could not have been more caring. Oliver enjoy his time with Rachel and loved his playtime. She was so thoughtful to send pics and videos of her stay with Oliver.”
“Another great stay with Steven, Brittany and family. Our dogs stayed with them Christmas Eve until Christmas night. They are always so well cared for here with walks every day and lots of attention from the whole family. We couldn’t ask for more but more is what we got, they even had wrapped chew toys for our dogs to tear open on Christmas! We remain absolutely thrilled with the care they provide our dogs!”
“Brooklin took amazing care of my cat, Lylla, while I was away. Lylla is very shy around new people, but Brooklin was incredibly patient and was able to get her to warm up, which says a lot! She went above and beyond to make sure Lylla was comfortable and cared for, even helping encourage her to eat when she wasn’t showing much interest in food. Communication was excellent throughout the entire stay. Brooklin kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my spoiled girl was in good hands. I could tell she genuinely cared about Lylla’s well-being and treated her like her own. I would absolutely book with Brooklin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter.”
“We had a last minute business trip and had to quickly find accommodations for our 6 month old puppy. Having never used a Rover we were VERY anxious and scared. We messaged several people and have still not received a response from some, but Andrea responded in less than an hour and was ready to help us out. Trooper is now home and exhausted from a weekend of fun and we were so grateful to her for taking such good care of our baby.”

We reached out to Lauren via Rover to come over and check on our pups. One was extremely worried about her presence and the other warmed up after a while. She is communicative and pleasent to talk with via the app. Her Rover Report Cards were detailed (with adorable pics) and helped put our minds at ease with a stranger caring for our pups. Thanks Lauren ?”

About: Reliable and attentive professional dog sitter dedicated to providing safe, comfortable, and stress-free care for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. Experienced in daily routines including feeding, walking, administering medications, and maintaining consistent schedules to keep pets happy and healthy while their owners are away. Known for a calm, patient approach and strong attention to detail, I focus on building trust with both dogs and their owners. Whether caring for energetic puppies or senior dogs needing extra support, I adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I prioritize clear communication, regular updates, and a clean, secure environment so owners can have complete peace of mind. Passionate about animal wellbeing and committed to treating every dog as if they were my own. I have decided to make caring for pets my full time job. I am single and live alone with my 2 yr old female pupper. We have plenty of time to make your fur babies feel how special they actually are. I have a small fenced in yard. If it's nice out then I like to leave it open so they have free reign. My place is small so I'm always near. I will only accept pets that get along with other dogs. It starts with my dog, Kaiya. She gets along with all dogs so if a dog has a problem with her then they won't be invited for doggy day care. However, that does not mean I cannot pay a visit to your house for any needs. I can also crate any dog that is better suited for that environment. Safety for all pups under my watch is the number one priority.
“After my first visit to Julia's house, speaking with her, and seeing her great fenced yard and the way her home is set up, I am so comfortable with leaving our pup Annabelle in Julia's hands. We did one day of doggy day care because I'm a nervous dog momma who wanted to make sure it was going to work out before leaving Annabelle overnight for an upcoming trip we have. She came home tired and very happy!!! I Ioved getting to see pics of how much fun she was having with her new dog friends running and playing. I am confident she felt so loved throughout the day. We will definitely take her to Julia's again!”
“Taylor and his family were SO sweet and I could not be more grateful for them! Taylor sent lots of pictures and I could tell Beaux had a great time. We will definitely be booking with Taylor next time we’re in the area.”
About: Hailing from an animal loving family, I've taken care of both dogs and cats since I was a very young child. I've worked with small and large, young and old, male and female, loud ones, quiet ones lol, playful, not so playful haha. I have one current furchild and best child, Sunny, who is very friendly and outgoing with all walks of life. I'm a freelance photographer with a flexible schedule. During the summer I work some local farmers markets but most of the time I am home hanging with Sunny, going on an adventure with him, or doing a photo shoot either in my home studio or on location in the area. Bonus, I can take a professional photo of your baby in my home studio! I have a huge fenced in backyard perfect for zoomies and playing and my neighborhood, in general, is extremely dog friendly with plenty of walking trails. With your consent, I'm also happy to take your pup to the beach, for a pup cup, to the dog park, or any other suitable adventure. I have two large crates if needed and treats, toys, and balls galore.

“Our 10 year old big dog was well cared for the day while we went out to eat and visited the art museum. Valerie is professional, friendly and knows dogs. She asked questions about our dog's specific needs. He enjoyed hanging out in the backyard to sniff around and took a nap inside their home just like he does at our home so I'm sure he felt quite comfortable. Highly recommend.”

About: Growing up and throughout my life I've had many furry friends of my own including a Tortoiseshell Cat, a Bernese Mountain dog, a Maine coon, a black lab, a bunny, a few chickens, and currently a Bombay Cat named Lady who I love so dearly. I have also worked at multiple doggy day cares and boarding facilities. Balancing the responsibilities of caretaking for multiple pups at once. Administering play time, bath time, making sure medication is accounted for and taken, as well as feeding them breakfast and dinner. I was also responsible for breaking up any altercations between the pups, certain forms of training, and learning the individual personalities of each and how to regulate their moods. I am a Craft Cocktail Bartender so I tend to work later evening shifts. The daytime is perfect but nights can still work as well if I'm off or working a shorter shift. It truly depends on your needs. I will remain flexible and communicative about my availability. Your pets safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for animals with different personalities and I truly take the time to learn each pet's routine and needs. I provide regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you can feel confident while you're away. Because I have a cat at home, I mainly offer care in clients homes, where your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment. This helps to keep their normal routine and reduce stress. For dogs I'd very happily provide walks, outdoor adventures to the park or the beach. Plenty of playtime and attention for their energy levels.

We messaged several people and have still not received a response from some, but Andrea responded in less than an hour and was ready to help us out. Trooper is now home and exhausted from a weekend of fun and we were so grateful to her for taking such good care of our baby.”
About: Dogs have been part of my family for more than 25 years. Throughout that time, I've cared for dogs with different energy levels, temperaments, and needs. I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and quality care while their owners are away. I have a schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. Whether it's sticking to feeding routines, going for walks, playing, or simply providing companionship, I make pet care a priority each day I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I'll follow your dog's routine as closely as possible, whether that's feeding schedules, walks, medications, or just giving them the extra attention they need. I want every dog to feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away, and I'll treat them like they're part of my own family.
“I wanted to say a big thanks to Jennifer for always taking care of my dog Josie while I’m away! She always sends great videos and pictures and you can tell is genuinely happy to care for your pet! I highly recommend her to anyone checking out her profile!”
“Our Ruby loved staying with Monika and Jeff! It's like leaving her with family! They have an awesome property and truly treat our pet like she was one of their own. We are truly blessed to have found them and find comfort in knowing she is being loved and taken care of when we are away. Thanks guys! You rock!”
“Clare was awesome! She took such great care of my pup and kept me updated with lots of photos. She made sure my dog got plenty of walks and was really attentive to her needs and food preferences. Highly recommend!”
“Archie always loves his time with Valerie! She always thoughtful updates/photos and has been very accommodating when we have had to change our pickup times due to travel issues. She is our preferred Wilmington sitter!”
“Jennifer was wonderful from the moment we reached out to see if she was available to watch Clark. She responded quickly, took the time to ask about his care needs, and genuinely wanted to know how she could best support him during his stay. From the very beginning, she gave us confidence that he would be in excellent hands. When we dropped Clark off, Jennifer was warm, welcoming, and made sure we felt completely at ease. She kept her promise by sending regular updates and photos throughout his stay, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. It was clear that she treated Clark like one of her own and made him feel right at home. Jennifer truly followed through on everything she said she would do, and we could tell Clark had a wonderful time with her. We highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable sitter who communicates exceptionally well and provides outstanding care.”
“Kim and her lovely family are Bella’s favorite people to be with when we need someone extremely special to care for our “baby”. Recently Bella stayed with them just for a fun weekend for Bella! Kim and her family are our “go to” care givers for Bella.”
“I could tell how much Aspen (Mini Aussie, 4) really enjoyed his 2 night stay with Robert. Aspen was immediately comfortable around Robert and his very well behaved King Charles dogs. The yard was fantastic as it allowed for him to play 10/10”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. I have years of experience helping friends, family, and neighbors with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your pet loves adventures, long walks, or simply curling up on the couch, I'm happy to match their routine. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, safe, and loved while giving owners confidence that their furry family member is in great hands. I'll treat your pet like one of my own and always provide regular updates and photos. I work full-time during the week, which makes pet sitting a perfect way to spend my evenings and weekends doing something I love. I'm available for morning, evening, and weekend visits, walks, and overnight care, and I'll always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and love. I do my best to be flexible and will communicate clearly about my availability so you know exactly what to expect. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and bedtime routines. I make sure pets always have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a secure environment. I'll also send regular photo updates so you always know how your furry family member is doing.
About: Ever since I was born I have lived with two pets. More recently, my parents bought a dog two years ago. This time around, I was a much bigger part in their upbringing (including training, feeding, all of their walking and exercise, playing, and just overall loving) because my parents traveled much more due to me and my siblings being older. My boyfriend and I always joked that he was almost our own dog! After moving out in December, I adopted my own dog in early February due to the heartbreak of missing my parents pup, and we couldn’t be happier with the decision. Our home is filled with so much more love and happiness since growing our little family. Other family meme ers (including my brother with his Akida) and friends have used me to dog-sit as well. Nothing would make me happier than to allow my little Theo to make new friends, while bringing love to pups when their parents need some extra help! Other than teaching a few yoga classes a week, I am an at home mathematics teacher. I get to make my own hours, and my pet and yours will always come first. I have a fenced deck with a 2 x 4 ft grass pad for potty time. My dog loves it! We still try to take 2-3 walks per day with mom and 1 with dad to ensure proper exercise. We also have a fenced in dog park and tennis courts where we take leashes off so we can all run around freely together! My pup (and yours!) staying safe, happy and healthy is always at the forefront of my mind. :-)
