“Jordan took great care of our 13-year old dog Max and our house while she stayed here over the weekend. We greatly appreciated the updates and photos that she provided throughout her stay. Jordan was sweet and caring with our pup and I am sure that he got lots of cuddles and love.”
“Great sitter! Jackson was so communicative, and he was a pleasure to have taking care of my fur babies. Professional and attentive, I'm grateful for the help. My animals loved him, thank you so much, highly recommend!”

“Velvet was awesome about staying in touch and sent so many great photos, putting me completely at ease while I was away. My cat was clearly comfortable with her and seemed to have a lovely time. Would definitely book again!”

“It was the first time we left our puppy and we were so nervous. Brendan was incredibly communicative and sent us so many pictures & videos over the 3 days that made us feel at ease. It also looked like our puppy was having the time of her life with him! Can't recommend him enough!”

“Bethany has quickly become my favorite sitter! It is obvious my furbabies feel safe and at home with her. She did a great job grooming the girls, and keeping our hope clean and organized. Even though I didn’t have the best reception, Bethany still continued to provide pictures and updates that warmed my heart. She’s the absolute best!”

“Our boys always love spending time with Allen. I know when our babies are with him, we have nothing to be worried about as they are well taken care of. Highly recommend!”

“Jennifer took such great care of our dog Benson and our house while we were on vacation. We got lots of updates and photos throughout the weekend and could tell he was in great hands. We will definitely book Jennifer again in the future for housesitting!”

“John did a wonderful job overnight house sitting for my 2 cats and Husky. While my fur babies are all fairly independent, they need and want a human presence at all times. John did great being there for them and keeping me up to date on their daily shenanigans.”

“Hannah stayed with our 3 dogs for 6 nights and we came home to healthy, happy dogs and our house in the same condition we left it in. Hannah sent regular updates and asked questions as needed. We were able to relax and feel confident our pets were getting the care and attention they deserved. Thank you, Hannah!”


“Giovanny was awesome! He was kind, respectful and communicative. He was great with our pup. He followed our instructions and our pup loved him. We were even running late to get back home on time and Gio stayed until we returned. Highly recommend!”

“Candace was amazing! Very friendly and understanding of my Lola's needs. Lola really felt comfortable around Candace early on, making me comfortable knowing someone was going to take care of my Baby.”

“I’m a so happy we chose Ivy. She went over all our pet instructions and loved my fur babies . Ivy sent daily pictures and responded within minutes to any questions or concerns.. She went above and beyond taking care of my house in the process. I trust Ivy and look forward to another wonderful experience choosing Ivy. Thank you so much Ivy”

About: Most of my pets have been dogs and some of them have been older than a year or two months old, currently open to learn more. Currently looking for a part-time and love dogs. I have been taking care of dogs since I was in elementary school and currently have one. I live in a small apartment and get to walk her around the city and usually walk her two times per day during the weekends

About: I’ve owned pets my entire life and am experienced dog owner. My friends and family rely on me to pet sit for them when they are away. Experienced with young pets and senior pets! I work 12 hour shifts 3 days out of the week and am available to help with your pet needs throughout the rest of the week. I ensure that my pets safety is maintained at all times. On walks I ensure to access and scan the areas I am walking through for any hazards. I also ensure I am in an environment that does not put my dog or other dogs at risk.
About: I have had dogs in my family ever since I could remember. As an adult, I have had my own dogs for the last five years - Star and Popsicle are my world! I am comfortable walking two dogs at a time, administering medicines, and if there is anything else your pet may need, I have probably handled it myself before. I have cared for other people's pets on and off for years as well and have handled many situations with ease. I currently have a very flexible, open schedule that can accommodate any specific walk times or potty breaks. I can assist any time of day, any day of the week. Hello! Trusting me with your beloved pet means that they will be taken care of with all the love and attention that I give my own two dogs. I am patient, attentive, and kind in my care, and I genuinely love being around any pets! From feeding to enriching walks, I want to make sure your pet feels safe and happy while you are away.
About: I have experience caring for children and creating a safe, positive environment, and I bring that same patience and responsibility to pet care. I’m reliable, attentive, and make sure every pet feels comfortable and well cared for. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, cleaning up after them, or giving them lots of attention, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m also happy to follow specific care instructions, including administering medications, and caring for senior pets. I am currently in school and can only do daily visits during the week and overnight care on the weekends. My schedule is open from 3:30pm-10pm I care for pets in their own home by keeping them on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and relaxed. I make sure they have fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, plenty of playtime, exercise if needed, and lots of attention and affection. I also follow any special instructions, such as giving medication or sticking to specific feeding schedules.

About: Hiii! I’m Marlena. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so they’ve always been a huge part of my life. Over the years, I’ve grown such a strong love for taking care of animals. I have experience with both larger dogs and really small dogs, and I’m good at picking up on their body language and little signs so I can understand what they need. I’ll always make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and well taken care of while they’re with me! I’m currently offering part-time walks while starting my senior year of high school. I’m available after 3 PM on weekdays and all day on weekends, allowing me to give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority during walks. I pay close attention to my surroundings, keep pets securely leashed, avoid unsafe areas, and make sure each walk is comfortable, safe, and enjoyable for your dog.

About: I’ve spent over a decade in hospitality and operations, running shifts at places like Starbucks and a local beer lab, which basically means I’m used to juggling a hundred things at once while staying calm, warm, and on schedule. Turns out that’s great training for dog care too: reading personalities fast, sticking to routines, and making sure everyone (two legs or four) feels comfortable in a new environment. I’ve got a dog of my own, so I know the drill: the 6am zoomies, the separation anxiety whining, the food that “definitely doesn’t cause gas.” Whether your pup is a couch potato, a chaos gremlin, or somewhere in between, I’ll treat them like they’re already part of the household. Ten-plus years in hospitality means I’m used to following exact protocols and communicating clearly, and I apply that same discipline to pet care. Safety and consistency come first, in my home or yours. I keep a calm, predictable environment because cats do best with routine, so I stick to feeding times, litter maintenance, and any specific instructions you give me exactly as written, no improvising.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Wilmington is $63
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wilmington
Cassandra was absolutely wonderful with Daisy and made my first experience having a pet sitter stay in my home feel so much easier. Daisy is about 14.5 years old, has always been extremely attached to me, and now has a few minor health concerns, so leaving her is something I worry about quite a bit. I knew she would be most comfortable staying in her own home, and Cassandra gave me so much peace of mind throughout the entire process. She is clearly very experienced with animals and does an amazing job adapting to each pet’s individual needs. She was extremely communicative and transparent, sent frequent updates, and shared plenty of pictures that were incredibly comforting to receive while I was away. She also took wonderful care of my home and even cleaned up a little, which was such a thoughtful surprise. Most importantly, Cassandra was there for my old girl when she needed companionship the most. Daisy really needs that one-on-one attention to feel safe and secure, and knowing she wasn’t alone meant more to both Daisy and I than Cassandra probably realizes. I’m so grateful for the care she gave her and would absolutely trust her with Daisy again.

Scarlett is outstanding! We booked her for 10-days housesitting. She took great care of our 2 large dogs. One is a mellow senior with medical issues, the other a hyper 1yo. Juggling the 2 so different dogs is not an easy task, but Scarlett did it well and attended to all their needs. The dogs loved her! Scarlett is by far the best sitter we booked through Rover, and we had many fine ones. I trust her 100%.

Hannah took exceptional care of our dogs once again. All of our dogs require medication, which she handles with ease. Additionally, she cooked special food for our dog when he had an upset stomach. She also took out our garbages and brought in packages for us. Highly recommend!

Heather was wonderful with our three dogs and one of the first sitters we ever trusted with them. She immediately put us at ease and took such great care of everything while we were away for a week. One thing we really appreciated was how she reached out with thoughtful questions about each of the dogs personalities and how they get along. It was really nice because it showed she genuinely wanted to get to know them and make sure she was caring for them in the best way possible. One of the biggest bonuses is that she also cleans houses on the side, and it truly shows. We came home to a house that was even cleaner than when we left it, which was such a nice surprise after traveling and made coming home feel so much more relaxing. She was also incredibly thoughtful and flexible when our flight got delayed. She went out of her way to come back later in the evening to let the dogs out, which we really appreciated. She stayed in great communication the entire time and kept us updated, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and detail oriented sitter.

Liana was fantastic with my 15 1/2 year old and 9 year old dogs. They both take medication twice a day and Bowie & Truffles warmed up to her which shows she really was beyond amazing 🤩 as Bowie does not easily bond with anyone. Constant updates and photos were a relief as I was so anxious as I don’t travel often. I felt her warmth the moment she came to visit for a meet & greet. I highly recommend Liana.
