“Maria is wonderful! She watched our dog for 5 days while we were away and sent many pictures and updates. Mipha came home happy and pooped! We are very grateful to have found someone so close by who can take such wonderful care of our dog!”
“We had such a great experience with Kumudini!! She took amazing care of our 9-year-old Morkie, who has severe anxiety, and made sure he felt safe and comfortable the whole time. She kept us constantly updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. He was well-fed, cared for, and protected as if he were her own. Overall, she went above and beyond, and we truly appreciate the love and attention she gave him. Highly recommend!”
“First time boarded our dogs with Honey and family, they came back happy. My dogs had a great time with her kids and their pup Oreo. We kept getting frequent updates, which kept our minds at ease. They had regular walks which is very much appreciated. We will come back to Honey again to board them in the future :)”
“Thank you once again, Natalie and Daniel, for watching Millie while we were away for the weekend. We loved getting updates on Millie’s time with you. It really helped us, as we always miss her. We are so thankful for the great care you provide and know that Millie is in good hands. Sincerely, Claire”
““Cecily took excellent care of our dog for four days while we were in Montreal. She walked him regularly, let him roam around the house like his own, used the leash properly, and shared photos with us. I’d100% recommend Cecily to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter.””
“Hayley was quick to respond and very friendly. She took great care of Maple and gave him lots of cuddles. I appreciated the frequent updates with pictures and videos. Thanks for making our trip away stress free by showing our boy so much love!”
“Can’t say enough great things about Vanessa and her family. From the second we met them I was at ease with leaving Odin with them. When Odin met her dog Leo, they became the best of friends. They treated Odin like thier own and made sure he was safe and had the best time.”
“Melissa took great care of Leo during his first dog sitting experience. I really appreciate the quick responses & updates from her on Leo and felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommended!”
“Karen took such wonderful care of my cat, Neo, while I was away on vacation. She went above and beyond by sending daily updates, along with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear from the start that Neo was happy, comfortable, and in great hands. Karen is fantastic with cats—her warmth and attentiveness really shine through, and it made all the difference. She was also incredibly flexible with both drop-off and pick-up times, which made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. I’m so glad I chose Karen, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again in the future. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter!”
“This past weekend, December 12–14, Amanda looked after our pup, and we truly could not have asked for a better experience. We had never left our pup with anyone before, so we were understandably nervous. Amanda immediately put us at ease by doing a meet and greet beforehand, keeping us updated 3–4 times a day, and returning our pup happy and relaxed. She even took him to Value Pet for a photo with the Grinch 😂 — absolutely adorable and above and beyond what we expected. I would 100% recommend Amanda to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to take care of their pup. 🐾💛”
“It was our first time to use Rover so we weren’t sure how it was gonna go. Arlene did amazing with our senior dog (blind & deaf). She was so patient with him. Our dog usually gets really stressed in the past at the kennel but it looked like Snoopy has an amazing time with Arlene. Thank you Arlene!”
“Lori was absolutely amazing! This was our pup’s first time being boarded, so naturally we were a little nervous about leaving him. Lori made us feel so comfortable and confident that he was in great hands. She took the time to make sure he settled in well with the other pups and even sent us pictures throughout the weekend, which we really appreciated. It was such a relief knowing he was being so well cared for. We would absolutely recommend Lori to anyone looking for someone who will love and care for their pup like their own!”
“Our Boxer was very well cared for and Monica provided regular updates, pics and videos. She is clearly an avid dog lover and we felt very trusting in her ability to provide a safe and enjoyable weekend for our dog. Many thanks!”
“Ankur and Krupa were great hosts. They send constant updates regarding your pet, photos and videos as well. I did not have to worry about my pet when I was away. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants a peaceful away time.”
“Truly nowhere else I would feel so comfortable leaving our girls. They're so excited to get out of their carriers and see Julia and whichever of their small dog friends are there too.”
“Xintian took such amazing care of Chopper! He is very anxious with everyone and hates to be left with a babysitter but he warmed up to Xintian so fast, and I could tell she cared for him as if he was her own dog. We will always be going with Xintian as our first choice from now on! Chopper can’t wait!”
“Melissa and her fiance were so great with our baby penelope, she had a great time and got along well with their dogs. They are also very nice people who are passionate and caring about animals and treated penelope like their own. They sent lots of pics and communicated throughout the day and were very accommodating with drop off and pick up. Would highly recommend booking with them, you wont be dissapointed!”

We left our dog with Stacey for 8 nights while on vacation. We had never left him with anyone aside from family and friends before so was a bit nervous. The experience we had with Stacey and her family was amazing. She made us feel very comfortable, had great communication, sent pictures often and took great care of our dog. Would definitely use her again and would highly recommend her.
Thank you, Hayley, for being so amazing with Whiskie! He had a wonderful time staying with you the entire week. Hayley regularly updated and sent pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was also incredibly kind, patient, and accommodating with all of Whiskie’s specific needs and instructions.It was such a relief knowing he was happy, comfortable, and so well cared for. I couldn’t have asked for a more loving and trustworthy pet sitter to look after my little boy! I truly appreciate everything you did for Whiskie and would be more than happy to have you look after him again in the future!
Aliya did amazing with our senior German shepherd! Our doggo typically has a hard time acclimating into new environments, but she got comfortable very quickly and we could tell she was very well taken care of during her stay. Aliya did the best job providing us with exhaustive updates daily, and following our complicated feeding instructions. Good to know our doggo has a home away from home :)
This was the first time I boarded my 4-month old puppy, Tilly. She did pretty good considering it was her first time away from us. She had a few accidents in the house, but Karen was completely understanding. Karen did everything to make Tilly's stay as comfortable in as possible and to comfort her so she wasn't missing us too much. I highly recommend Karen for your daycare/boarding needs.
Everything happens for a reason and I’m so thankful to have found Lisseth as a sitter for my dog and kitten. I only had a few days to find a sitter as a previously booked one had to cancel and Lisseth graciously accepted my last minute request. She is kind, friendly and patient and my pets were given excellent care. I received pictures and videos of my pets and I honestly can’t even put into words how wonderful of a sitter Lisseth is. I am forever grateful ❤️
We’ve had Jackson stay with Erin twice now, and both experiences have been wonderful. We were honestly a little skeptical about whether Jackson would be comfortable staying overnight, especially after a less-than-great experience with another Rover sitter back in 2022. But Erin completely changed that. Jackson settled in quickly, was very comfortable with Erin, her family, and her dog Callie, and clearly enjoyed his stays. We’re planning a three-week trip to India next year, so we wanted to find someone Jackson could get comfortable with well in advance. After these two stays, we feel we’ve found the right person. We’ll be having him stay with Erin regularly so her home can become his comfortable “second home.” Erin has been fantastic with Jackson, and we highly recommend her!
Mandeep was fantastic with our dog! He took great care of him and kept us updated throughout his stay with pictures and messages, which we really appreciated. Our dog seemed happy, comfortable, and well cared for when we picked him up. Mandeep was friendly, reliable, and easy to communicate with. We would definitely book with him again and highly recommend him!
Yvonne and Troy were wonderful with my 2 dogs. They provided a special care for my senior dog that required a lot os attention. They were communicating with me providing updates and handle my other anxious dog with lots of love. We were really happy with all and my dogs too. Thank you 🙏 both.
I’m really happy with the care my puppy received. Carlo spent a lot of time with her, took her on walks, and made sure she wasn’t left alone feeling lonely. It was obvious that he genuinely cared about her well-being, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. She came home happy and relaxed. I’d definitely trust him with her again. Thank you!
She was our first dog sitter through the Rover app, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She took such great care of our dog, and we could tell Jasper had a fantastic time while we were away. She also kept us updated with texts, videos, and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. We would definitely love to book her again in the future!

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.
sitters in Ajax have an average of 12 years of experience. Each sitter has their own unique experience and skill sets for different types of pets. You can find details of each sitter’s potential certifications and abilities, such as pet first-aid or senior pet experience, listed on their profile.

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.
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.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.

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.
You and your Ajax 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.
