“This experience was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had with my dog, he is a larger dog and Stephanie and Justin made me feel so secure every step of the way, they treated malc like their own and I really appreciate everything they did for three whole days, I was never worried or wondering what was happening. They respond super quick and are literally the nicest people ever. They fenced in yard was a major plus and the communication is top tier, please please please send your dogs here. I promise they will be safe!”
“What can I say, Miss Candice loves what she does. And it shows, It’s like home away from for my fur baby who all but jumps out the car window when we pull up for his stay. Thank goodness my window was up. Total opposite when pull up to the groomer.”
“Our other dog passed very recently and has been with Milo for life so leaving him was especially difficult. We typically board and this is our first time using rover. Barbara reassured us and sent photos/updates throughout our time traveling. Response time and communication was top tier. I could tell he felt comfortable and safe in her home and was happy as can be despite the circumstances. I am so happy we opted not to board. 10/10 recommend and would happily work with barb again.”
“Lindsey did a fantastic job caring for our 6 month old pup. She communicated a minimum of 2x per day and always provided pictures with each communication. We will definitely be using Lindsey again in the future.”
“Rita went above and beyond to take care of our pups over our wedding weekend - she even kindly transported them to the venue for us for a quick round of photos. They had a great time!! She sent regular updates and was overall a real pleasure to work with. We knew our pups were in great hands with Rita! Thank you so much!!!”
“Laura was a fantastic dog sitter! She was flexible with scheduling pick up/drop off, sent an update with a photo, and our pup seemed to have a great time with her. We will definitely use her services again!”
About: Ive had cats and dogs since a very young age I currently have 4 dogs and three cats. I have many years of experience and love them all! I am currently a student at University of Delaware and I thought maybe this job would work for my class schedule. I have a lot of free time outside of class. I have 3 cats, a boarder collie, australian shepherd, and a west highland terrier. They are all very good animals most of my animals live at home except for one of my cats that lives with me at school, but I’ve taken care of all these animals from almost all my life.
“We absolutely love Geosselyn! She took care of our cat over our Hawaii vacaction for about a week, gave him all his meds without trouble, and gave him his own little room and are and tower to play on. She also had cameras on him which was nice, and took pictures that she sent to us to relive our stress! Couldn’t be any happier honestly”
“Chyann, was an amazing sitter for my baby. Beanie stayed with her for a week and throughout the entire stay she kept me updated with pictures and insight into how he was doing. She’s one of the more informed sitters on this platform and following our meet-and-greet I was completely sold on choosing her as a sitter. With the updates, smooth transition for drop-off, and Chyann’s warm personality I was completely at ease and confident throughout the boarding process. I’d definitely recommend choosing Chyann!”
“It gives me such peace of mind to see how comfortable Sheldon is staying with Adriene and her two dogs. I love the daily updates and pictures of Sheldon taking walks, playing and napping in comfy spots. This has worked out so well for us!”
“This was our second time and she is wonderful to work with and sends us pictures of our pup while we are away. We liked seeing him running around the big yard with her pup, playing tug a war, and then snuggling on the sofa. Great trip!”
“Claudia took such amazing care of my dog! She shared lots of photos and detailed updates every day, so I always knew how he was doing. She not only took him out for walks but also played with him at home and even let him snuggle with her at night. My pup absolutely adored her — when it was time to leave, he even sat on the lawn refusing to go, with watery eyes. It’s clear he felt very loved and happy with Claudia. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter! 💛🐾”
About: My home is always filled with love and laughter over our dogs. Rex is 16, a ShihZhu, Jack is 10 yr Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, and Peppa is 8 yr Chihuahua. Good nutrition, comfort, care, love and exercise are the keys to our content and playful pets. I am currently retired, and I have time on my hands. Dogs are very important to me, I feel they know more than we think they know. To give a dog comfort, company in your time of need would be my pleasure. I will take your instruction on how you’d like me to structure walks, exercise, feeding and meds. The playing and affection part is included. I will help you keep you pet on their routine.
“Jen was wonderful with our 3year old dog Scooter!! She treated him as if he were her own!! We were extremely happy with the entire experience especially since this was the first time using rover.com. We will definitely be seeing Jen in the future - thanks so much!!”
“Karen is wonderful, I’ve had her look after my cat 3 times now. When I’m looking for a sitter I don’t hesitate but reach out to Karen as my cat also loves her! I trust Karen, both her and her husband are really nice people and I will be having my cat board at their house again:))”
“Our dogs Rocky & Bella had a wonderful stay with Lorraine. During our meet and greet we were able to meet another guest dog and I felt comfortable that our pups would be in good hands. I was impressed that even on pick up day when we were picking up at noon, the pups still got a nice long walk that morning. They came home tired and happy. We will definitely use Lorraine again.”
“If you want to be certain your dog is happy and loved while you’re away, then they are the right people to hire. I received daily photos/videos and their communication was excellent. Thank you so much for caring for Elsie so well!”

“Megan took care of my aging housecat and my home for several days and did an excellent job at both! Her communication was excellent and I loved the pictures that she sent of my little guy while I was away. Highly recommend!”
“Marlee continues to impress us more and more each time she watches our cats. She goes above and beyond with her service. She is diligent and detailed in her daily notes and sends several pictures each time she visits letting me see how my boys are. We have used Marlee several times and will do so in the future.”
About: I’ve never lived in a home without a kitty by my feet. I provide reliable, patient, and personalized care to each pet I care for. I love both cats, no matter breed, size, or personality, I always make sure they’re safe and comfortable. As a responsible pet sitter/walker, I keep owners updated and follow routine in order to keep your pet happy and loved while you’re away:)
“Betty took our two dogs for a great walk- they were active and excited and apparently wanted to go the bathroom a lot! Betty picked up after them and they enjoyed the exercise”
“I highly recommend Jenni L. She and her partner Matt work together, and for this visit, Matt stayed with our beloved cat for several days. I cannot say enough about how reassuring it was to hear from him and see the pictures and videos that he sent of our cat and of the two of them together. Clearly, she loved him and felt very comfortable with him. We will definitely hire them again!”
“Cassandra is wonderful! She did a meet and greet with us and our cats prior to the appointment. We had her drop in for our cats while we were away and she took great care of them. She is a true lover of all animals and very respectful. We just found our new permanent cat sitter! Thank you so much ?”
“Julia was absolutely amazing! She was right on time, very flexible, super sweet, and treated my puppy, Fern, like her own! She and Fern became fast friends, and Fern was very sad to see Julia go. I’ll be booking with Julia again, no question about that!”
“Adriene was AMAZING with our two dogs, Chole and Luna! She gave them such love and attention. She communicated with us while we were away. This made us feel so comfortable. We knew they girls were being well cared for. We highly recommed Adriene!”
“Lisa is a fantastic cat sitter. She dropped by to check in on our three cats while my husband and I were on vacation. She made sure our cats were well fed, emptied the litter robot when needed, and provided love and attention to the fur babies while we were away. Lisa is very responsive over text, which is so helpful. 10/10 will book again.”
About: I have been around all types of cats since childhood and currently own 3 of my own. I have been pet sitting friends and families cats for the last 7 years. I have experience dealing with cats of all temperaments and providing the care they need and help to make them feel as comfortable as possible while in my care. I love all animals and will treat your cats like my own while taking care of them!
About: I have taken care of neighbors’ and grandparents’ dogs as well as my own. I love dogs more than most people and would do anything to protect them and keep them happy. As a college student away from my fur babies at home, this fits perfectly into my schedule. I have a lot of time on my hands until I start grad school this summer! I will just be taking the fur babies for walks as I am in an apartment that unfortunately does not allow pups. I will use safe paths or neighborhoods as well as any parks or fields that allow us!
About: Animals are Gods among us. I agree with Ricky Gervais, that "a dog loves you more than it loves itself, and that's why I worship dogs." Honestly, this gig is a bit selfish - my sweet baby Pit Mix passed away recently & I miss her terribly. I'm certain that engaging with animals will soothe this depression. I am socially awkward with humans, but I love animals. This will be therapy, a true gift, to me. I also need to exercise more and would like to be able to afford any kind of home, some day. My family has had pets since I was in kindergarten. I volunteered with Faithful Friends in High School, through which I also fostered kittens. I have taken care of my neighbors' & friends' pets while away over the years, which I equate to a collective total of ~2 years. I take medical issues very seriously & cared for my doll when she was ill. I understand how stressful & important it is. My favorite thing about walking a dog is when the folded tops of their ears bounce up and down. I work full time until ~4:30PM, but I am usually free after. I am available for boarding on the weekends. On the days I work from home (typically Monday & Wednesday), I can also provide a walk or check in during my lunch hour (1 to 2PM). There are no other animals or children in my home; your pet will have my undivided attention. I have a large partially fenced in yard, and many walking trails nearby. I'm also happy to take care of a pet in your home, if preferred.
“Faith was an exceptional dog sitter who exceeded all expectations. She was punctual every day, ensuring that our pups received consistent care and attention. Faith dedicated 30 minutes each day to sit with the dogs while they did their business, showing her commitment to their well-being. Additionally, she captured lots of great pictures of the pups, which was a delightful bonus for us. Her reliability and thoughtful care made a significant difference, and we highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter.”
About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and genuine love for cats of all personalities. I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and have years of experience caring for cats for friends and family, so I understand that every cat has their own unique preferences and boundaries. Whether your cat is playful and social or more shy and independent, I take the time to build trust and make them feel comfortable in their own space. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, litter care, and enrichment—whether that’s interactive play, quiet companionship, or just giving them space when they need it. I’m also happy to care for senior cats and provide gentle, attentive support. I’m reliable, communicative, and always focused on making sure your cat feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away. You can count on me to treat your cat (and your home) with the same care and respect I would my own.
“Finding Shirl for our Zoey, has been the absolute best thing for Zoey and for us as well. The care she gives is more than that, Shirl has also become a favorite loving human for Zoe. We had to go out of town and had her do multiple drop ins and it went amazing? Zoey was able to stay in the comfort of her own home, had no accidents, enjoyed each visit with Shirl and was so happy to greet us when we got home. There's no doubt Shirl is great with animals, but also gives them so much love that they thrive and totally enjoy her company. She is the Best of the Best and we would recomend her and Rover to anyone!!! ~Danny & Lyndi~”

About: Experience with owning and caring for 4 dogs & 1 cat, in my household- at once. Over 16 years of experience with Dachshunds, Pitbull’s, Rottweilers, Chihuahuas, many breeds of cats, Flemish giant rabbits, and turtles. Enjoy being active and taking care of our little creature and other’s loved ones! ❤️ Every animal is different, so their care needs to be unique and carefully planned for their happiness. Giving lots of attention and love to your little creatures when you are working hard- and you don’t have to rush home to let them out or feed them. Want to spend my free time helping and taking care of the beautiful and loving animals we have the chance to meet. Very fortunate enough to have many animals in my life. My schedule on the app is always up to date. If I am booked on the schedule, please still free to reach out, as cancelations happen! 😊 I just moved into a new house, so I created different spaces for the animals to safely play, and relax in. I am very flexible on drop off and pick up times. I love meeting new people, and have no problem traveling to clients houses to sit their animals. Overall, I love every type of animal, and even though I do not have a dog of my own currently, I hope to add a furry friend to my family shortly after I grow my family. :)
“Joseph is awesome! He's very patient with my dogter Penni.. She's still a young puppy and I feel at ease when she's in uncle Joe's care. I also love the social skills she gets, while there, with her friends (the other dogs).. Coming from someone who's cautious, I would 100% recommend Joseph to also care for your fur babies!! 😊”
“Wonderful experience boarding with Justin and Stephanie! Such an easy process, and my dog was well taken care of. They are also very accommodating as I had a family situation to tend to. Grateful for their service :) would recommend!”
“Sunaina was great with Loki! He had such a great time with her and her family. She sent us many pictures and updates periodically of him during his time with them. She listened to our instructions on his allergies and food timing, and took him out for walks. We were super happy that he was happy! Definitely will book again when we are back in the area!”
About: I’ve cared for the pets of friends and family for many years, and I’d love to offer my help with your precious friends too! I currently have a Bassett hound/springer spaniel mix named Moody Blues, but enjoy dogs of all sizes and even the sassiest cats! This is currently my main job, so ensuring my flexibility for you is priority! I look forward to working with you to make sure your pets are cared for. I love to visit and take care of friends! For dogs, we can walk, play at home, I can bring Moody Blues if your dog would enjoy visits, and I’m happy to take care of any cleanups or feedings as well. For my cat friends, I’m happy to take care of the same things, with offers of cuddles and lap time in place of the walks for the indoor kitties.
“Latoya cared for my Benny as if he was her own. She give him his medication and ensure it was taken at each meal. Latoya is very professional and reliable. Thank you for taking such great care of my furbaby. I highly recommend Latoya and I'm confident you will not be disappointed!!!!”
About: Dogs have always had a special place in my heart and require a lot of patience and attention. I have over five years of experience within dog sitting and in my care, they will be loved, respected, and given the enrichment they properly deserve! I'm currently working part-time with plenty of availability during the week! My flexibility allows me to properly care for all the needs of your pet! At my apartment we have a trail that is great for walking pets and in close proximity within my complex. It's perfect for walking your pet(s) and a great place to decompress! If you have any questions or concerns I am here to accommodate for you and your furbaby!
About: I’m a true dog enthusiast who was the primary caregiver for my German Shepherd, Jax, for almost 9 years until he passed away last year. During that time, I handled every aspect of his daily life—long walks in any weather, scheduled feeding, plenty of play and exercise (he loved fetch!), grooming, basic training, vet appointments, and showering him with affection. Jax was a big, energetic boy with a strong personality, so I’m very comfortable managing high-energy breeds, leash pulling, setting boundaries, and keeping routines consistent for a happy, well-behaved dog. Though I don’t have a dog of my own right now, that deep experience has only strengthened my passion for caring for pups. I’m excited to bring the same level of dedication, patience, and one-on-one attention to your dog—whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, boarding, or whatever they need. I always prioritize safety, follow your instructions closely, and send daily updates with photos so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I’d love to earn yours. Feel free to ask any questions or set up a meet-and-greet! 🐾 Honoring Jax by helping other dogs thrive.” I am a stay home mom currently working in an online certification so I’m at home almost all day . I usually just need to take my daughter to and from school. On weekends I am mostly home as well. I have a very big fence yard that I can play with your dog. He can lay down on my deck to soak some sun. I live in a safe neighborhood where I can take him for walks . Or I can cuddle him on my couch watching tv. He will receive all the attention he needs.
About: I've always had dogs and recently lost my beloved German Shepherd. I have helped my sister in her pet care business for several years now from pups to farm animals. I work full time remotely from home and have the time and desire to keep your fur babies company while they do the same for me. I currently work full-time remotely from home. I'd welcome some company and walk/play breaks in my day. I am often around on Saturdays and Sundays as well. I have a fenced yard for play and potty and would welcome pets into our home just like we did with our pets. I don't have any children at home as they are now all grown. I will also mainly schedule one dog at a time unless they are from the same family to make sure everyone is safe and happy.
“Mutig was so happy when we picked him up! I have been nervous about where to leave him during a vacation we have coming up, but I was put at ease after this stay. She sent so many happy pictures of Mutig and Quincy playing and sent me updates of how he was doing. Yvonne and her husband were very caring. She fed the dogs separately, took them out often, and showed a lot of care. We are so glad we found her to have piece of mind that we are leaving Mutig in good hands when we cant be there!”
“Claudia is great with my little fur baby! She spends extra time with him and is very gentle with him. I can tell that he enjoys her company. I can tell that she is well educated when it comes to dealing with animals and has even taken the time to teach me some tricks and tips as I am a first time dog owner with crazy long hours at work. I will definitely be using her services frequently.”
About: All my life, I have been surrounded by dogs. I have been dog sitting for friends and family throughout the years and gained some experience through that. I am reliable, organized, responsible, and accountable. Overall, I want to gain more experience with doing something I love. Pet care fits into my daily or weekly routine because I have 2 dogs of my own and a horse. I am used to providing them with their everyday needs, daily walks, and showering them with affection along the way. They need a lot of attention, love, and care every day and I enjoy giving it to them! I provide whatever needs necessary for the pet. I make sure they go on daily walks, being fed at the proper time, making sure water bowls are full, and having plenty of play time with them.
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I grew up with Border Collies and have also adopted several dogs over the years, so I'm comfortable with everything from high-energy working breeds to laid-back companions. I've also volunteered at several shelters, giving me experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, temperaments, and backgrounds. I work from home (as does my wife) so your pet will be getting consistent, attentive care. To be honest, our dog passed away last fall and we are missing the joy of being dog owners and having dogs around, but we need something a little more flexible for the time being. You are getting two sitters for the price of one and we will care for your dog as if they were our own :) As a former dog parent who has used Rover, my goal is to provide exactly what I was looking for each time I booked a walker/sitter: clear communication, limited hassle, and all of the assurances that you can rest easy and not worry...your doggo is in good hands! I work from home and call my own hours (as does my wife) so as long as we know your dog's routine we will make sure to incorporate it into our own. We have a fenced-in yard and a walking path near our home so walks are never a problem (we love walks). My wife and I both work from home so one of us will always be giving your dog attention/supervision. We have previously owned dogs who were flight risks so we have been conditioned to keep an eye out, keep doors closed, etc. We have a big fenced-in yard and have a little indoor gate/fence that we use in the house if need be to secure a hallway, etc.

“"Julia was fantastic! She had excellent communication from the start, keeping me updated throughout the walk with photos and videos of my dog. It was so reassuring to see het happy and well-cared for. I highly recommend her and will definitely book her again!"”
“Jenni had contacted me to let me know that she was on her way for our dogs’ walk. She took pics of them to show us that she was at our home with the dogs. I had told her about the route the dogs were use to taking and she showed us the map of the route. The dogs were good for her out on the walk. When they got home they were well tired enough and curled up for a nap. I look forward to having Jenni come walk them again!”
“Megan was the best! She was so communicative throughout the two days she watched my dogs and was able to accommodate last minute dinner requests for them! I enjoyed my trip knowing that my dogs were in good hands! HIGHLY recommend!”
About: I’ve always had a furry friend by my side, since as long as I could remember. I provide reliable, patient, and personalized care to each pet I care for. I love both dogs and cats, no matter breed, size, or personality, I always make sure they’re safe and comfortable. As a responsible pet sitter/walker, I keep owners updated and follow routine in order to keep your pet happy and loved while you’re away:) Pet care fits easily into my routine because I have a flexible weekday schedule. I’m currently a student at Wilmington University, while balancing mutiple side incomes as a 23 year old in today’s world. I’m available throughout the week for walks or drop-in visits, and I can adjust my schedule to meet each pet's needs. I care for every pet like they're my own. I follow their usual routine, make sure they have food, water, exercise, and lots of attention, and I always follow the owner's instructions. My priority is keeping your pets safe, happy, and comfortable.
“Renee has cared for my 10 month old Doberman puppy for 5 months now on weeks when I am in office. She is quick to respond, highly communicative, and flexible with my puppy’s changing medical needs. I can tell that Renee cares about what she does, and it’s been a huge relief to find someone who can confidently handle my high energy pup. I’ve used a few dog walkers due to various scheduling needs, and Renee has been our favorite 🐶 I recommend her for all your doggy’s care needs!”
About: Hi my name is Rachel i’m 21 years old looking for pet owners who need pet assistance. I’m currently studying business at del tech community college and i’m a third year. I have babysat dogs and cats before and overnight sat as well. I enjoy being around animals they make me happy. I also own a doggie named Teddy of my own he’s 6 years old and he’s a shitzu. Caring for a pet requires consistency, time management, and attention to their physical and emotional needs. Depending on the type of pet, daily tasks may include feeding, providing fresh water, exercising, grooming, cleaning living spaces, and monitoring health and behavior. I walk my dog Teddy, a shitzu everyday twice and he doesn’t have an open yard. Caring for pets at a clients home depend on the space and environment.
About: I have pet sit all kinds of animals since I was 10, including dogs, cats, lizards, rabbits, frogs, turtles, you name it. I have always lived with a dog since I was born, and also have two adopted cats. I have raised chickens and ducks from hatchlings and cared for goats. I have also worked at a doggy daycare, specializing in yard management, food, medicine, bathing, and senior care. I work part time on the weekends as a server, so I am available anytime on weekdays to take care of your pets! Weekends I am normally available mornings. I love spending time with any pets, so I would give them the best care I could and hang out with them afterwards to make them not just healthy, but happy as well.
“Nathan & Meredith are amazing! From arranging meet & greet, communications through app, and the thoughtful notes after every walk, they are really caring to your pets. My dog enjoys spending time with them so much!”
About: With a lifelong passion for dogs and three years of hands-on training in animal science at TCHS, I provide expert care in walking, feeding, grooming, and administering medications. Currently, I apply these skills daily at a local kennel, ensuring every pet receives personalized attention and the highest standard of care. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine as I currently work part-time at Vixen Hall Kennels. My schedule changes weekly, but I’m flexible with hours and can easily accommodate different times. I’m also willing to get up early or stay up late if needed to ensure your pets receive the best care at any time of day. I treat every pet like they’re my own, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. I follow any specific instructions provided by the owner to maintain their pets' routine, whether it’s feeding, playtime, or medication. I’m committed to providing personalized care and always prioritize the well-being of each animal, ensuring a stress-free experience while you're away.
“Emily was great. I needed last minute accomodations for my dogs and she was able to asaist. My fur babies liked her. She sent plenty of pics. On one of the walks she explained they did not stay out too long because it was very hot outside. I will definitley use her again.”
About: Hi everyone! My name's Shirl and I am hoping to make your life a bit easier by taking away the stress of leaving your pup behind while you're away. I have been pet sitting for over 12 years; I used to have dogs come board with me while owners went away, but I've found that most owners prefer their pets to stay in the comfort of their own home. I have years of experience doing overnight pet sitting, but unfortunately my growing family (3 dogs and a cat of my own) no longer allows for me to stay away from home overnight. I am happy to provide multiple daily visits and/or walks! My goal is to keep your pet as comfortable as possible while you're away, by keeping their daily routine as close to "normal" as possible. I've cared for all types of pets including dogs, cats, bunnies, chicks, quail, lizards, fish, etc.! I am an experienced dog handler/ animal lover at heart. I worked at/managed a doggie day care/boarding facility for 4 years, learning from a very experienced trainer who focuses on positive reinforcement techniques ONLY. During my time there, I had opportunities to complete trainings to understand dog behaviors and body language. I have volunteered at BARCS as a dog walker/foster, working primarily with bully breeds. Why I love dog sitting I have been an animal lover my entire life. From playing with salamanders as a kid, to growing up with cats and dogs of all shapes and sizes; I've also had bunnies, fish, frogs, hermit crabs, hamsters, birds...the list goes on! I couldn't imagine a life without animals in it. My experience administering medication Yes. Working at a dog boarding facility for nearly 2 years I have had to give many forms of medications, and my personal pets also take oral medications. I am not trained to give injections. My full time job allows me to work from home majority of the week. That makes it easy for me to swing by for a visit at different times of the day. The latest drop in I can provide is 7pm. I am happy to provide updates as soon as I arrive, during the stay, and as I leave. For dog walks, I prefer not to introduce any dog that I’m handling to another dog passing by. This ensures everyone’s safety.
About: I’ve taken care of family and friends’ dogs throughout the past few years. I provided whatever they needed whether that was feeding, walking, or playing. I’m currently working a part time restaurant job that never ends later than 10:30 pm. So I will have plenty of time to take care of pets overnight and during the day. I provide reliable, attentive care in my client’s homes by following routines, offering playtime and affection, administering medications as needed, and keeping owners updated regularly.
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 10. I worked at a doggy daycare and an animal hospital for almost a year. I’m comfortable with all types of animals, including exotics, and can deal with all kinds of temperaments and medical needs. Currently I attend University of Delaware as a pre-veterinary medicine major. I am available 7 days and week and throughout the - I occasionally work at a dog boarding facility but shifts are usually no longer than 7 hours I am comfortable coming to other houses and doing overnight stays as well, which I have done before for clients. Unfortunately I cannot board at my house.
About: I’ve had pets all my life. I love all animals especially cats and dogs. I have trained my dog, Benji, who I’ve had for 6 years! I would love to have your pet! I’m a self employed makeup artist so my schedule is pretty open during the week mostly! I work from home and we are very flexible I have a big fenced yard. Only one male neutered dog who gets along with most dogs. I love to play and pet the dogs often and then love to sit with me and watch favorite movie!

“Laura was a fantastic dog sitter! She was flexible with scheduling pick up/drop off, sent an update with a photo, and our pup seemed to have a great time with her. We will definitely use her services again!”
About: Ive had cats and dogs since a very young age I currently have 4 dogs and three cats. I have many years of experience and love them all! I am currently a student at University of Delaware and I thought maybe this job would work for my class schedule. I have a lot of free time outside of class. I have 3 cats, a boarder collie, australian shepherd, and a west highland terrier. They are all very good animals most of my animals live at home except for one of my cats that lives with me at school, but I’ve taken care of all these animals from almost all my life.
“Chyann, was an amazing sitter for my baby. Beanie stayed with her for a week and throughout the entire stay she kept me updated with pictures and insight into how he was doing. She’s one of the more informed sitters on this platform and following our meet-and-greet I was completely sold on choosing her as a sitter. With the updates, smooth transition for drop-off, and Chyann’s warm personality I was completely at ease and confident throughout the boarding process. I’d definitely recommend choosing Chyann!”
“This was our second time and she is wonderful to work with and sends us pictures of our pup while we are away. We liked seeing him running around the big yard with her pup, playing tug a war, and then snuggling on the sofa. Great trip!”
About: My home is always filled with love and laughter over our dogs. Rex is 16, a ShihZhu, Jack is 10 yr Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, and Peppa is 8 yr Chihuahua. Good nutrition, comfort, care, love and exercise are the keys to our content and playful pets. I am currently retired, and I have time on my hands. Dogs are very important to me, I feel they know more than we think they know. To give a dog comfort, company in your time of need would be my pleasure. I will take your instruction on how you’d like me to structure walks, exercise, feeding and meds. The playing and affection part is included. I will help you keep you pet on their routine.
“Jen was wonderful with our 3year old dog Scooter!! She treated him as if he were her own!! We were extremely happy with the entire experience especially since this was the first time using rover.com. We will definitely be seeing Jen in the future - thanks so much!!”
“Karen is wonderful, I’ve had her look after my cat 3 times now. When I’m looking for a sitter I don’t hesitate but reach out to Karen as my cat also loves her! I trust Karen, both her and her husband are really nice people and I will be having my cat board at their house again:))”
“If you want to be certain your dog is happy and loved while you’re away, then they are the right people to hire. I received daily photos/videos and their communication was excellent. Thank you so much for caring for Elsie so well!”
“Sara took a great care of our little guy. She gave timely updates and I can see that our Leo had so much fun and comfortable at her place. I would definitely keep our little guy with Sara again.”
“I had to use rover last minute for my pup and Yvonne was very helpful working around my last minute schedule. I received lots of pictures and updates on Karma throughout the day. Thank you Yvonne!”
“Absolutely fantastic! They took great care of Dofus. Alexandra texted me updates and pictures. I was able to enjoy my time without worrying about him. Thank you. Highly recommend!”
“Elizabeth was great! She sent plenty of updates during our dog’s stay, which was greatly appreciated and followed all instructions when it came to him. She was also super sweet and her family was just as sweet, we felt very comfortable leaving Meechie with her.”
“Andres is so good with our pups. Such an easy going and relaxed atmosphere. We were so lucky Andres had room for us! Jupiter and Apollo warmed up to him immediately. Dogs know a good guy when they see one!”
“I boarded my two dogs, Simba and Ghost, with Sunaina for five nights, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. She took excellent care of them, followed all of my instructions to the letter, and kept me updated throughout their stay. It was clear that Simba and Ghost were comfortable and well looked after, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Sunaina to anyone looking for a responsible, attentive, and caring dog sitter!”
