“Had an absolute wonderful experience with Justice! My fur babies were well taken care of down to the detailed instructions. My senior was given her medication orally even when my senior pup gave her a little trouble taking it, she made sure my pup got her meds. I am so thankful to have had someone who knew what they were doing and did it wonderfully! All three of my big fur babies enjoyed having Justice watch over them.”

About: What sets me apart is my experience with all ages—from playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra care. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and trained in basic obedience. I’ve also worked in a doggy daycare! I’m currently working part-time, so I have free hours to fit in scheduled visits, feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins—ensuring each pet gets consistent care and attention daily. I will provide fresh water, feed as instructed, give potty breaks, playtime, and affection. While ensuring safety, follow routines, and clean up messes if needed.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 15 years old. My mom is vet so I have taken care of a bunch of her clients dogs. I have also taken care of a lot of my family friends dogs as well as my neighbors. I currently do not have a job outside of this so I will be able to be home with your pets full time including weekends. I live on a farm and have a big fenced yard so your dogs will have a bunch of yard space to run around. I have 1 very friendly dog so your dog will have another one to play with. I have big and small crates if your dog needs to be crated for whatever reason. My mom is also a vet and will be home with me in case your dog has any sort of emergency.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was about nine or 10 years old, less in the caregiver since until I was an adult, I now have two dogs and love them dearly. I also enjoy working for Wag!, which I have worked for almost 10 years on and off with a perfect five star rating in many many great reviews. my daily routine includes taking care of a my older dogs, and my cat. I include them in all my plans to make sure they are always taken care of. I always consider them as an extension of the family and their needs are always my priority. I tried to tackle things head on and make sure that their needs are met before my own.

About: My experience pet-sitting (before I joined Rover in 2019) began at age 14 and has consisted of taking care of neighbors and family friends' dogs, eventually getting gigs through personal referrals. Helping others look after their animals and taking care of them as my own while making a few extra dollars is the perfect gig for me! Dog-walking/sitting: I'm pretty active and love the outdoors, so I'm more than willing to take your fur baby on short or long excursions outside. Some of my favorite memories are taking my family's dogs on long walks and spending time with them at the lake. Cat-sitting: I love both cats AND dogs for very different reasons. Dogs are awesome because they're friendly, energetic, and man's best friend! Cats are so different in that they are sooo relaxing, hands-off compared to dogs, and relatively independent. Other animals: I have little experience in this arena but would love to take care of any other pets you may have! I'd love the opportunity to take care of your pets while you're away! :) I work full-time from home when not traveling for my job. Because I love animals and travel too much to have some of my own, pet sitting is the perfect, flexible gig for me! I treat my clients’ pets as my own, so I do let them on the bed or couch to snuggle if that’s something you allow in your home. My personal motto is “leave no trace” typically used for the outdoors, but that is also the standard I abide by when staying in a client’s home.

“He was able to accommodate me on short notice and was great with my two dogs. One being younger and energetic. The other being an older gal who loves to be petted. They looked forward to him coming everyday! I could see them watching for him on the puppy cam. They were always excited when he came in the door!”

About: I’ve been around all sorts of animals my whole life. I absolutely adore meeting and taking care of so many different breeds of dogs & cats, & im comfortable with all!! I’ve had experience with whole litters of puppies, senior guys and all kinds in between. I’ve given plenty of medication, eye drops, hot spot treatment etc, so i’m more than comfortable helping out if your fur baby has any special needs! Wether it’s just a drop in visit to potty and hang out for a bit, a long walk or a week long stay while you’re away, i’ll make sure they’re as happy as can be! :) I’m available M-F for any sort of daily needs such as pop ins to go potty, a long walk or if they need any sort of medication. I’m also available Thurs-Sun for overnight stays, but if other days are needed they can usually be added if i have availability! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions ! I’ll make sure to respect you and your pets in your own home as if they were at mine ! I’ll make sure waters are filled, they’re fed (if needed at that time) , they’re pottied or litter boxes are clean and that they’re loved on before i leave! If you explain what you need done, i am more than happy to make sure it is!

About: What sets me apart is that caring for dogs isn’t just a job to me—it’s truly been my life for as long as I can remember. I have 4 years of professional experience as a veterinary technician, giving me hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, personalities, and needs. I’ve also bred French Bulldogs for 8 years, so I have extensive experience with puppies, including feeding, socialization, routines, and early training. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, high-energy dogs, and dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I can also help reinforce basic training and good manners while your pup is in my care. Most importantly, I treat every dog like they’re my own. With a lifetime of experience, professional veterinary knowledge, and a genuine love for dogs, I want every pup staying with me to feel safe, loved, comfortable, and right at home. 🐾❤️ Pet sitting fits naturally into my daily schedule because I already spend most of my time at home caring for my own dogs and working part-time from my computer. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I’m able to maintain regular feeding, potty, medication, exercise, and rest routines while giving each pet the individualized care they need. 🐾 Safety, Trust & a Home Away From Home Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I have a secure, fenced in yard with separate fenced areas, which allows me to safely give dogs their own space when needed. I also have **my own crates available** if your pup is comfortable with crating, and I can easily separate visiting dogs from my own dogs whenever necessary. My dogs are very friendly and used to having other dogs around, but I always prioritize safety and supervision. I’m especially careful about **size and temperament differences. I keep larger dogs separated from smaller dogs when appropriate, so everyone can enjoy their stay safely and comfortably. With secure outdoor areas, multiple ways to separate dogs, and plenty of hands on supervision, I’ll treat your pup like one of my own while they’re here. ❤️🐶

Pet care is an important part of my routine, and I make time to provide attentive, reliable care for every pet. I plan my schedule around walks, feeding, playtime, and cuddles while making sure each pet receives plenty of attention and care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

About: I used to work at Petsmart now I have a at home job that is very flexible but I miss having dogs around! I am available around your schedule because I live alone. Dogs are like humans, with legs lol I understand them and they always tend to come to me with out me speaking, its like a spiritual connection we have with out words. I will communicate with standard commands and use treats (if allowed) to gain trust & help them feel comfortable while mommy/daddy are away or on vacation. I live in a town home with a big back yard also a dog park! So they will get plenty of outside play time and explore the new scenery. Any other questions please feel free to call me anytime on my cell, I look forward to caring for your pet!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Big Canoe

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Big Canoe is $16 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $16 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 2,386 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Big Canoe. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Big Canoe. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
