“Elizabeth was great communicating and letting us know the status of our dog Chico. We were very please with her care and services. Looking forward to booking her again!”
“Angela is communicative, kind and friendly. I’ve never used Rover before and I am so happy I did. My dog Sammy is high energy and a bit needy so I was nervous. But it worked out great and I was so glad to see everyday that Sammy was in great hands and having fun. A++++ THANK YOU”
“Will definitely be returning! Sent so many picture updates, played with my dogs, brushed them, spent quality time with them and always answered my messages at any time, day or night.”
“Great overall! She communicates (sometimes a bit often), but you can tell it’s in her caring nature. She was able to go to rescue my baby after a Rover sitter left him home alone while I was out of town due to an “emergency”. Beverly was there step by step and I wouldn’t know what I would’ve done without her stepping in to get a ride to my place, pack him and his things, and take him in for boarding. She sent me pics and videos to ensure he was well taken care of. I would book with her again!”
“Robert is a really nice person, flexible with hours and dates (we had to drop Skye off a day before and he accepted even if was last minute notice ). He kept us posted with messages, pictures and videos. I would definitely leave Skye with him again . It was a pleasure meeting him and Skye loved him as well. He took a really nice care of our baby.”
“Our Arthur had a great time. Natalia sent is updates and photos during his stay. It was great, he was so tired when he got home. I will 100% use her services again and I would recommend her to anyone. Arthur was in great hands and company.”
“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!”
“Katie took really good care of Savana while I was away. Her doggies taught Savana how to go down the stairs, hopefully she'll follow me when I go down the stairs. I got pictures of Savana showing me she was safe and happy. Thank You”
“Anthony was so sweet with my anxious baby girl! I got lots of pics and videos while she was with him which was very appreciated. Would definitely love to use him again!”
“Cody, his family, and pup Freya took great care of Moxie. She was skittish being her first time away overnight, but they were patient with her and gave daily updates and pics. She loved playing with Freya& fetching balls. Their home and yard is safe and secure. We will definitely book Cody again when we are visiting out-of-state family near him.”
“Gus had a great stay in Detroit with Theresa and Adrian! They were super accommodating, sweet with Gus and very attentive and kept us informed all along. We would use them again in a flash but were only in Detroit for a wedding weekend. They are the best-we highly recommend!!”
“So happy I booked with Kayla to sit my pup while I was on vacation. She kept my mind at ease with all the pictures and the updates. I felt confident she would treat my dog right. I definitely plan on booking with her again in the near future.”
“5 stars for Lea and her family! Ellie had such a great stay there while we were away on a camping trip! Very communicative, easy to arrange pickup/dropoff and super friendly family overall. We will be using Lea in the future for sure. Thank you Lea!!”
“Tara is a fantastic Dog Sitter. It’s the first time my dog is away from here for a long time and she was very happy being at Tara‘s house. I enjoyed getting the photos. She also adjusted to my change in the days that I scheduled to be with her, which is very helpful for me during this time of my surgery”
“Shawna was great. Kept me updated with pictures and texts about Helcia. She has a couple of concerns, but brought them to my attention immediately. I would request Shawna again if I needed someone to watch Helcia for me.”
“We would definitely recommend Steven for his pet sitting services. He watched our two kittens for a week that needed a little extra care. He sent pictures and videos frequently so we wouldn’t miss the babies too much. Steven has a lot of knowledge and experience with animals and we would absolutely book with him again. Thank you!”
“Whitley is the absolute best! Gave our dog so much love, movement, and fun! Marshall loved playing with her dog too. She was super accommodating when our flight was delayed too.”

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.
