“I have used Rover for several years and have had some really good providers. However Juliana, Cooper, and Betty Boop are amazing and my Pup felt right at home. I can honestly say I have found Bubblez new home away from home. I can now travel and not get anxiety leaving my Fur baby. Juliana is warm, caring and loved my Pup as if she were her own. Bubblez did not come home disheveled which made me feel much better. I highly recommend Juliana! ❤️”

“This was our first time boarding our dog, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Chyann was incredibly sweet, attentive, and caring, and it was clear from the start that she genuinely loves animals. She provided regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was well cared for, comfortable, and happy throughout the stay. She has a natural way with animals and made the entire experience stress-free for both us and our pup. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, trustworthy, and loving environment for their dog.”

“This was our first time using DogVacay and Lorraine. We could not have been any happier with the entire experience. From start to finish everything went very smoothly, even a change in schedule. Lorraine was just the best. We felt Scooter was in very good hands and knew he would be well taken care of. We enjoyed getting the pictures and Scooter seemed really happy. I think she enjoyed him as well. She was caring and took really good care of him and we are very happy to have her on board when we need her again. Thanks!!!!”

“Pico's over night stay with Emily & Christine couldn't have gone better. They gave us the option for a meet and greet which was super helpful to ease our minds about leaving our fur baby. They were communicative before and during his stay. We could tell from the pictures he had a blast. He made friends with Lilo, their pup, and their kiddos, and it sounds like he even got along nicely with their cat. The ultimate complement is that Pico was clearly sad to come home from his sleepover - just like our human kids after hanging out with one of their besties. We will 100% hire Emily & Christine again and sing their praises to everyone we know. Thank you!”

“Patricia seemed very caring from the very beginning. Her house is very spacious and her backyard is huge, with a lot of empty spaces for dogs to run around--that was perfect for our dog who is full of energy and loves to run around. Our dog stayed with Patricia for about one week. When I picked our dog up from Patricia's place, our dog was in very good spirits and showed a lot of affection towards Patricia, which must be because of the great care of Patricia. Patricia also packed everything neatly, which made the pick up very quick. The per-day fee was very reasonable as well. Overall, we are very happy and will use Patricia again.”

“This was the first time I left My young Frenchie with anyone and I was very nervous. Aaron was interested in getting to know her before the trip and he was organized and communicative. When I picked her up she was comfortable there and she was fine! I will 100% leave her with Aaron again. Very thankful to find someone who cares a lot about taking care of her.”

Margaret took good care of our dog, Luna, while we were out of town. She was very easy to work with. We also really appreciated her flexibility with the pickup time, which made our travel plans much easier. We felt very comfortable knowing Luna was in good hands.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Yorklyn home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Yorklyn.

<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Yorklyn sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in DE ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
