“I would give more stars if I could! This was our first time leaving our old girl at home for the weekend as she it too difficult for her to join us camping unfortunately. Alexandra set our minds at ease immediately upon meeting her. Her communication is fantastic and she went above and beyond for our sweet Nala. I was super anxious about leaving her with a stranger but was so pleasantly surprised how much love and gentle care Alexandra gave to her. I absolutely recommend trusting her with your fur babies, I will definitely use her again ☺️”

“Carol took care of our 4 cats for the first time. It was just fantastic! Her pics, messages showed she really cares for animals. We were only doing a ‘test’ run but looks like we can go for longer holidays soon!! Thank you Carol :)”

About: I was a proud dog parent for 12 years and have experience caring for pups through every life stage—from playful puppies to loving seniors. Whether your dog is small, medium, or large, I understand how important regular exercise, routine, and socialization are to their well being. I’m so glad you’re considering me to look after your furry family member when you can’t be there—they’ll be in caring, capable hands. I am available on weekdays for walks or drop in visits and weekends by request, providing your furry family member with dedicated, one-on-one attention and care. Whether it’s a daily walk for fresh air and exercise or a drop-in visit to feed, play with, and give some cozy cuddle time, I’ll make sure your furry family member feels happy, safe, and loved. I’m happy to tailor my care to match your pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs whether they’re a playful pup, a curious kitty, or a professional napper.
“This was my first time using this service. Zoe did a wonderful job getting to know my dog. She took really good care of her and stayed in touch to set my mind at ease the entire time. Thanks Zoe till next time.”

“Nora saved our family as our cat had a medical emergency the night before we went out of town. She attended every day, administered medication on top of the regular care cats need, and gave Luna love and affection. She was extremely patient as Luna's medical needs fluctuated, and was on top of every new challenge that arose. We are so lucky to have had Nora! Thank you!”

About: I spent 12 years caring for my family cat and learned how to keep pets safe, calm, and happy. I’m patient, responsible, and committed to excellent care. I work full‑time, but I’m available for pet care from Thursday to Saturday and can accept same‑day bookings. On Wednesdays, I’m available after 6 PM. If voluntary time off is available at 3 PM, I can leave work then and arrive shortly after if a client needs care on Wednesday. I have a fenced yard and a safe, comfortable home environment where pets can relax, play, and feel cared for. I always make sure pets are supervised and comfortable.
About: Hey fellow animal lovers! My name is Jess and I am a 29-year old woman who recently returned home after traveling abroad and am dealing with the passing of my father. My own kitten Axel has been an invaluable support during this transition period and I know how important pets are to their families. I have a lot of free time right now and I’d love getting the chance via Rover to spend time with your dogs and cats that I wouldn’t otherwise be able to get! In the past, I’ve had very close bonds with my relatives pets, often sitting them for them when needed. I have also done some foster work with dogs and cats at my local shelter when I was going to university so I’m used to taking care of a variety of different and new pets and attuning myself to the needs and wants of each one, including any medical issues or behavioural quirks. I have fostered extra large dogs, been the walker for more than a few puppies in my time, lived with a geriatric cat for the last years of her life, and now take care of my boisterous and cuddly kitten. I am a very active outdoorsy person who loves to go on long walks or hang in the park so I would love to have a furry friend join me on these adventures! I also love a good indoor cuddle session or playtime at home for whatever dog or cat who needs it. I live in Ajax right by Pickering Village/close to the highway and own a car so I can get most anywhere in Durham for your sitting/walking needs. I’m currently unemployed so I am available any day or time for requests! I hope I get the chance to know all of you and your animals soon!! When it comes to your pets, my schedule is wide open and I am free anytime after noon on weekdays for walking/home check-ins, or anytime at all on weekends. For house sitting, I can make your home my base any day of the week and will only need to leave the house for maximum a couple hours each day just to go to the gym on some weekdays. At my own home, I check/clean Axel’s litter box twice a day, feed him dinner at night (an automated feeder takes care of the rest), and make sure to play/cuddle with him for at least an hour every day! When caring for pets in your home, I’m happy to follow whatever guidelines your household may have regarding feeding, litter cleanup, being let out to pee, enrichment time, training, walks, crating, enforcing house rules, you name it!
About: I grew up on a farm with tons of animals in Port Hope🐑! So I have lots of experience with pet care and livestock. I have also been dog walking and pet sitting for 5 years outside of Rover. I’ve cared for many senior dogs, and have a lot of experience with different energy level breeds. (For boarding I will only take small dogs under 40lbs) I’m still in school, but I’m free after 12PM on weekdays, and all day on weekends. Please message me so we can find a schedule that works best for you and your pet :) For pet sitting, I am super detail oriented and personally feed my cat raw, so I can be trusted with home-made food and commercial. As I have a very anxious cat, I prefer to not pet sit at my house.
“Alysa has been doing drop-ins for my puppy for the past couple of months. She has been reliable and very responsive. I can tell she really enjoys spending time with my dog and truly cares for him. I highly recommend her!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of attentiveness, structure, and emotional care I bring to every pet. I’m calm, patient, and highly observant, which helps me quickly understand each dog’s routine, personality, and needs. I’m experienced with puppies (potty routines, basic training reinforcement, leash skills) and senior dogs (gentle handling, medication routines, slower walks, and comfort-focused care). I treat every pet as if they’re my own, with consistency, safety, affection, and respect for their unique needs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life. I work part-time from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. I’m able to accommodate regular walks, feeding routines, potty breaks, playtime, and check-ins, and I can adapt easily to each pet’s unique schedule and needs. I prioritize safety, calm, and trust in every environment. In my home, pets are cared for in a clean, quiet, and secure space with constant supervision, structured routines, and plenty of affection. In clients’ homes, I follow all care instructions closely, maintain consistency in routines, and respect each pet’s habits and comfort zones. I’m attentive to health, behavior, and emotional well-being, and I communicate clearly with owners for peace of mind. My goal is always to create a safe, stress-free, and loving environment where pets feel secure and cared for
About: Having dogs and cats at a young age and taking care of them and loving them has inspired and motivated me to take this great opportunity on Rover to care for others with attentiveness, kindness, and patience. My availability is only open to Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays as I am currently busy with another job. I am available on those days from 10 am to 7 pm. In my home I have cared for my pets by walking them regularly, feeding them, and cleaning any messes in the house from any incidents. I do these all with care, love, attentiveness, and patience and strive to give that kind of care to your pets.

About: I have been pet sitting and dog walking for over 10 years. I have experience with separation anxiety and reactive dogs. I have also worked with other animals like bunnies, guinea pigs, and fish. I have experience with puppies and seniors as well. Pet care fits into my daily routine as I split it into morning and evening tasks. Mornings involve feeding, walking, checking litter boxes, refilling water, etc. And my evenings include walking, feeding, and any cleaning tasks. I provide care at my clients residence. Depending on the type of building it is (house or apartment) care will vary. In a house it often includes time in backyard, inside play, walks, and extended time with the pet. In an apartment it will include play time inside, lots of walks, time on balcony (depends on apartment and pet), making sure blinds are open to provide sunlight, and extended time with the pet.
About: i’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since i was 10! i would feed them, walk them and play with them! i just love it! I’m currently unemployed .. so i’m available during the days and available during most nights, Sometimes i’m spending time with family or watching my nephews and Niece! I would care for pet in clients home. I would play with them, walk them/ let them out when needed and play ball if allowed by owner
About: I like to think I’m basically a part-time pet butler, part-time best friend, and full-time treat dispenser. 🐾 I’m great with puppies who are still figuring out that shoes are not chew toys, and I have lots of patience for senior pets who prefer slow strolls, extra cuddles, and VIP-level care. I’m comfortable with giving medications, sticking to routines, and adjusting to each pet’s unique personality—whether they’re a zoomies champion or a professional couch potato. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel safe, loved, and maybe just a little spoiled while you’re away! Honestly, pet care fits into my routine better than most humans do. 🐾😂 My day happily revolves around walk schedules, feeding times, play breaks, and making sure every pet gets their daily dose of love (and probably a few extra treats). I’m totally fine with early morning potty patrols, midday zoomie supervision, and evening cuddle shifts. Spending time with animals is the best part of my week—they’re cuter, funnier, and way less likely to cancel plans last minute! I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and right at home—whether they’re staying with me or I’m visiting them in their own kingdom. 🐾 My home has a decent-sized fenced backyard that’s perfect for safe playtime, zoomies, and supervised sunbathing sessions. Inside, there’s plenty of cozy space for naps, cuddles, and keeping up with their normal routine. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their feeding schedules, walks, medications, and favorite habits—because I know pets like their routines almost as much as they like treats. My goal is always happy pets, clean spaces, and making sure your furry friend feels spoiled in the best way possible!
“Cassandra took such wonderful care of our cat Maisie again! Cassandra is trustworthy, responsible and sends us the best pictures and updates. We know our cat is well cared for and has a lot of fun with Cassandra.”

About: With 15+ years of experience caring for cats, I understand their behavior, boundaries, and individual personalities. I’m patient with shy or anxious cats and attentive to those who need more engagement and play. I’m comfortable administering medications, maintaining spotless litter boxes, and ensuring a clean, low-stress environment. My science background helps me recognize subtle changes in behavior or health, so I can respond early if something seems off. I focus on calm, respectful care—earning your cat’s trust while keeping them comfortable, clean, and well-cared for in your absence. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, as I’m available nearly full-time—including weekdays, weekends, holidays, and evenings. I structure my schedule around the pets in my care, ensuring they receive consistent attention, timely feeding, play, and any required medications. Because I maintain a flexible schedule, I can accommodate last-minute bookings, extended stays, and visits at times that best suit your pet’s routine—keeping their environment stable and stress-free. I prioritize a calm, clean, and secure environment tailored to each pet’s needs. In a client’s home, I follow your routine closely—feeding schedules, medication, litter or enclosure maintenance, and preferred play styles—to keep your pet comfortable and stress-free. I’m attentive to safety details like secure doors, hazard-free spaces, and proper handling during feeding or medication. I also respect boundaries, especially for shy or rescue animals, and never force interaction. With my experience and science background, I stay alert to subtle behavioral or health changes and act promptly if anything seems off. My goal is to provide consistent, reliable care so your pet feels safe and your home is respected while you’re away.
“Shenley was amazing with my senior cats! One of my cats requires medicine and extra care, and Shenley made sure to provide all of that and more. I can tell they enjoyed their time with her too!”

“Sarah looked after my babies from Dec 22-Jan 1st. She was amazing. My two babies were so content with her. I highly recommend choosing Sarah to look after your fur babies.”

Khadija was a fantastic pet sitter for our Pentax! She thoughtfully added water to his wet food to help keep him hydrated during the warmer weather. By the end of her stay, Pentax had really warmed up to her, and it was clear that he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We couldn't be happier with the care she provided!

Beth and Margaret were spectacular, treating our home with complete respect. We got daily photos and videos showing playtime with our cat and reassuring us that he was doing just fine during our long trip. We could tell he had been well looked-after, and he was thrilled to see us on our return! I would enthusiastically use Beth and Margaret's service again, and would happily recommend them to anyone needing a similar service.

Lyndsay is wonderful with our furry friends. They are obviously very happy with her visits, as we can see by the pictures that she sends us daily. Thank you Lyndsay for being available to help us out when we need to get away. It is great to know they are left in very capable hands.

This is the second time Christina helped us with our 2 kitties while we were away. We are so happy that we chose Christina. She is amazing. Christina is wonderful with our 2 cats, the daily updates are very detailed and give us peace of mind that our kitties are well taken care of.
