“2nd time with Amanda and we are just as happy as the first. She took great care of our dog. Very loving to him and we received multiple pictures thru his stay. She is a very caring dog sitter. Would use her again and again!”
“Kim is amazing! She took care of my 8 month old lab for 4 nights. She treated Riley as her own, taking excellent care of her and giving her lots of attention. Riley loved Kim’s dogs. I would highly recommend, I cannot say enough great things. We will be using Kim again to watch Riley with no concerns or worries.”
“Spike had such a good time over there, and you could see how happy he was through all the pictures. He was one of the pack and I’m super excited to have found Allesha to take care of him :)”
“Karen was wonderful. It was my first time using Rover and she made me feel so comfortable. She took care of our very anxious eyes pup during our wedding weekend and gave us such peace of mind that he was happy and well cared for while we were away. We hope to book with her again in the future!”
“Ms. Beverly was awesome with everything, from when I first sent her a request about keeping my dogs ,the meet and greet, keeping me updated with videos and pictures, everything ran just so smooth with her and I didn't worry about my dogs at all and was able to enjoy my trip. HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER”
“Grace took great care of my corgi, Ham. I received at least 2 updates and/or photos daily on her well-being and interactions with Grace’s adorable pup, Woody. Ham looks forward to her next visit!!!”
“Sofia was very patient, attentive and sweet with my senior dog. When he got an upset tummy, as he sometimes does, she handled it like a champ, contacting me, cleaning up, keeping him calm and comfortable, reaching out to Rover vet line. When he was feeling better, she took him for walks - his favorite! Thank you Sofia!”
“Our dog Bear stayed with Dena and her family for the third time, and he had a great time! We will continue to be repeat customers because they are so kind and caring towards our dog. It is helpful to know that while you are gone, your pet is loved and cared for.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Carol. My 12-year-old husky means the world to me, and Carol cared for her exactly the way I would — spoiled and loved. She sent daily photos and updates, which really helped me relax while I was away. My girl was happy, comfortable, and clearly adored. I would trust Carol again in a heartbeat.”
“Angela was great! She made Dobby feel comfortable, and kept me in the loop about how he was doing while I was away. Now he's home and crashed out from all the fun.”
“I am so happy to have chosen to leave my little Jazz with Tonya! Her little boys and her fur babies were a delight and were very receptive of him! When I picked him up, Tonya had him looking so good and fluffy…I could tell she had taken time to brush him🙂 She was really patient with him and I most definitely would like to book with Tonya again in the future!”
“Provided great care to our Boston terrier who has separation anxiety. Replied very quick and was flexible with pick up/drop off times which was so helpful! Would book again for sure! :)”
“Dawn was wonderful with my puppy George. I was little nervous leaving him for the first time but she put my nerves at ease. I could tell when I came to pick hime up he was well cared for and happy. I will for sure be using her again in the future.”
“Jessica was super easy to work with, accommodating and her energy is 10/10. We have a big rescue puppy who did so well with Jessica, and we think was sad to leave her. Will definitely use again in the future.”
“Susan did a fantastic job watching our GSP, Missy. Missy is a little anxious & nervous, and Susan knew just how to handle her. Susan provided frequent updates and pictures which assured us she was in good hands. In addition, Susan was graciously flexible with drop off and pickup times since we were working around our DTW flights. Thank you so much Susan! We will definitely consider you again for watching our Missy!”
“This was my first time using Rover. It was a last minute change of plans with my original dog sitting plans. Laura was quick to respond and very accommodating around my extremely hectic schedule. She made it a very simple and smooth process. I was very pleased with her home setup and yard during our meet & greet. I knew my puppy was going to be safe and well looked after. I received lots of pictures and updates which I really appreciated. I would highly recommend Laura to watch your pet, you will be glad you did! I know I was!”
“Andrew took amazing care of our dog!! He was extremely proactive ahead of time by doing a meet and greet and accommodating specific requests. He communicated regularly during the stay with pictures and videos. He went above and beyond by reinforcing our dog’s training during his stay. Andrew took it in stride when our dog rolled in something smelly and returned him to us bathed and happy :)”

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Amherstburg 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 favourite hang-out spots in your Amherstburg
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
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.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
