“Stacey took care of our Charlie in a doggy daycare at her house. Charlie was well taken care of and enjoyed watching/patrolling her backyard. We would not hesitate to leave Charlie with her again!”

About: I am a lifelong pet lover who has been a proud owner of cats and dogs for over 15 years. My passion for animals began in childhood and has only grown stronger with time. I believe that pets are an integral part of the family and should be treated with love, respect, and care. Experience: I have owned pets for over 15 years and have extensive experience caring for cats and dogs. Throughout the years, I have provided my pets with daily exercise, proper nutrition, and plenty of affection. I have also dealt with various health issues and emergencies, including administering medication, treating wounds, and taking my pets to the vet. As a part-time pet sitter, I integrate pet care into my schedule by setting aside specific blocks of time each week to devote to my clients' pets. I make sure to communicate with pet owners about their pet's needs and schedule, so I can plan accordingly. For example, if a pet needs to be fed at a specific time, I will ensure that I am available during that window. I also try to be flexible and willing to work around the schedules of both the pet and the owner. Overall, while pet care is not my full-time job, I take my role and work hard to ensure that each pet receives the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure to create a safe and comfortable environment for them. This may include setting up a designated space for them to sleep, eat, and play, and ensuring that the area is clean and free of any potential hazards. I provide them with food and water as needed, and make sure that they receive plenty of exercise and attention throughout the day. Depending on the pet, I may also need to administer medication or tend to any special needs they have. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow any specific instructions provided by the owner and make sure to maintain their routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding them at the specified times, taking them for walks or playtime, and providing them with any necessary medication or treatment. I also make sure to keep the living space clean and tidy, including cleaning litter boxes or picking up after the pet on walks. Throughout my time with the pet, I provide them with love and attention to ensure that they feel comfortable and at ease in their surroundings. In both situations, I keep open communication with the pet owner to provide updates on how their pet is doing and address any concerns they may have. My goal is to provide a safe and nurturing environment for the pets in my care and to ensure that their physical and emotional needs are met to the best of my ability.
“Natasha is really a pet lover. She took very good care of Wolfie. She gave him medicine on time. She also sent me updates and photos. I was first time user but definitely book her again.Thanks Natasha.”
“Leanne was great and made us feel very comfortable leaving our dog Molly with her. Leanne gave us regular updates and photos to let us know Molly was doing well. Molly came home happy and tired after playing with the other dogs. Would definitely recommend Leanne and we will be using her again for daycare soon.”

“We had such a great experience with Nikki and Deven! They took amazing care of Ammu and kept us updated throughout with constant messages, photos, and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. They were incredibly responsive and genuinely concerned about her well-being. They also took her out for a walk and made sure she was comfortable and happy throughout. It was clear that Ammu was in great hands and genuinely cared for. We really appreciate the care and attention Nikki and Deven gave her and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

“I cannot recommend Erin highly enough! She cared for my greyhound, Georgia, during the week, for an entire month and I had complete peace of mind the whole time. Erin has a dog of her own, Callie, and the two dogs got along famously. It was adorable. It was clear Georgia felt comfortable, happy, and at home with Erin. So much so, that Georgia would wait in front of the car, wanting to go see Erin and Callie…on the weekend! Erin was incredibly attentive to my dog’s needs and always kept me informed and updated. I especially appreciated her honesty and transparency about everything that happened while I was away; even the funny moments, like when my dog managed to eat poop. It showed me that Erin was truly paying attention and cared about keeping me in the loop. It’s obvious Erin genuinely loves animals and treats them like family. I would absolutely trust her to watch Georgia again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative dog sitter. Thank you so so much Erin!”

“I had a wonderful experience leaving my dog with her. From the moment I dropped my dog off, I felt a warm, friendly, and welcoming vibe. She asked all the right questions about my dog’s routine, personality, and needs, which showed she genuinely cared about providing the best care. She has a large, secure backyard where my dog had plenty of space to play and explore. Throughout the day, she kept me updated with photos, which gave me peace of mind and made me feel confident that my dog was happy and well cared for. I picked up a relaxed and happy pup, and I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my dog with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive dog sitter!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 10 years and genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have experience with anxious dogs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and letting them build trust at their own pace. Because I work from home full-time, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. They’ll receive plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, enrichment, and walks throughout the day. Whether your pup loves adventure or prefers a slower, quieter routine, I’m happy to match their energy level and individual needs. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, with plenty of updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. I work from home full-time, which allows me to provide flexible, 24/7 care and supervision. I’m available throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, meals, and medication if needed. Because my schedule is so flexible, I can easily adapt to your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and at home during their stay. I work from home full-time, so your pet will have lots of companionship, supervision, and frequent walks throughout the day. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with my senior dog, who is used to having canine company. Caring for an older, more sensitive dog has given me a great understanding of anxious pets and the importance of patience and consistency. I maintain a reliable routine while staying flexible to match your pet’s schedule and individual needs. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. 🐾
“We very rarely leave our 2-year-old fur baby away from home, but Kumudini took such wonderful care of Skye as if she were her own. She is incredibly approachable, kind, and genuinely caring. It was clear to us how much she loves dogs and how dedicated she is to providing them with the love, comfort, and attention they deserve. We felt completely at ease knowing Skye was in such good hands. I would highly recommend Kumudini to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog caregiver, and she is definitely at the top of our list for future bookings!”

“We can’t rave enough about Jeff. As new puppy parents, we were so anxious about leaving our 4-month-old puppy, Cheddar, but Jeff immediately made us feel comfortable and at ease. Every time we drop Cheddar off, he is so excited to see Jeff and his family — which says everything! Jeff has been caring for Cheddar through Rover, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. He is kind, reliable, and genuinely cares about the dogs he looks after. He took the time to understand Cheddar’s personality, helped him feel comfortable, and kept us updated throughout his stays. It’s clear that Jeff treats every dog like his own, and we feel completely confident knowing Cheddar is in his care. We cannot recommend Jeff enough and will definitely be booking with him for a long time to come!”

“Erika took great care of Ryuu and sent so many pictures throughout the day sharing Ryuus smiles and daily activities. Ryuu had so much fun and can’t wait to see Erika again. would definitely recommend Erika to watch your pet!”

“So grateful for Melissa & Nigel’s loving care and attention for Daisy and Piper. They allow us to spend care free time away from home, and we get to pick up our two happily exhausted dogs afterwards. Win win!”

About: Hello, My name is Nikita and I would love to care for your four legged baby just like you do. I have grown up with animals all my life and trust me when I say this that my friends call me the universal dog mother 🫡 The reason I dog sit is because I understand the pain of parting with your pet temporarily. From finding the right dog sitter to having anxiety about the well being of your companion can all be difficult. My idea of dog sitting is to make sure your pet is as comfortable as he/she can be to process the temporary change. A lot of attention, care and activity to keep their mind diverted will be provided when with me unless special accommodations have to be made . I have experience with a lot of dogs and want to keep experiencing this love always. I have taken care of dogs that are anxious, hyperactive, shy and also aggressive at times. I want to provide you the best experience and your pet the love he/she deserves when you are away. I live around parks, off leash area and plenty of walking trails near me. I work from home and can care for your fur companion with utmost attention and supervision making sure you pet doesn’t feel any separation anxiety or discomfort. I also have dog training capabilities. Other than this, regular activity long walks , parks or other requests can be accommodated based on preference. For me it is of utmost priority to look after the needs of your pet in my care. I maintain a healthy and loving environment for them, make sure they have fresh water and food , regular exercise and feeding , administration of oral medicines if required and any special care instructions to be followed. As you can read from my reviews, I invest time in their well being and make sure you are at peace with regular photo updates. I take my work seriously and make sure that all the fur babies are looked after and happy once they leave from my accommodation.
“Stephen and Vanessa, Thank you so much for taking such good care of Jasper. He looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for when we picked him up. We really appreciated the updates and the love you gave him. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. We would definitely love to book with you again! :)”

“Lori has been taking care of my 7 month old Cane Corso/Presa and treats her like she’s her own !!! Couldn’t say enough about how attentive and amazing she is with her. My pup waits every morning at the door so she can see Lori. Thank you for loving her like we do !!! 💜💜💜”

We rebooked Amit and Neha for another doggy daycare day for Mila. Mila was very excited when we pulled into their neighbourhood, and immediately asked Neha for belly rubs as soon as she saw her. I’m happy that Mila enjoys her time with them, and looks forward to her next visit!

There are 3,862 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Ajax. About 89% of Ajax sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's leash and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalized care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Ajax commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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 ON ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 81% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 88% 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
