“Danielle was absolutely fantastic with my fur babies. I went away over Thanksgiving and this is the first time I've left my dogs with someone new. Danielle come over a met my dogs (1 large, 1 small) and they got alone right away. My biggest dog is a rescue and has some issues but Danielle handled him beautifully; he was totally in love with her by the time I got home. Danielle sent pictures and an update on a daily basis while I was away. When I come home my house was clean and the dogs happy. I couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter....highly recommended.”
About: Lifelong pet owner of dogs, cats, and horses! Experience with different breeds and personalities. Able to recognize and diffuse potential issues. Your dog and their safety always comes first. Experience with seniors and puppies, with some moderate training experience. My schedule is currently wide open and able to accommodate morning, midday, and evening walks. Overnight pet sitting available as I have folks at home to take care of my own fur babies. I have access to a vehicle so happy to travel to pet sit/check in/walk your pet. My own pets are like family to me and I will treat yours the same. I am very attentive to subtle changes as they occur, and happily communicate anything I notice that even remotely raises a red flag. Your pet’s health, safety, and happiness are paramount to me, and I am not easily swayed by big, sad eyes. Happy to crate your dog and make sure they always have everything they need to be comfortable.
About: I have loved and taken care of animals since age 10 - when I welcomed my first bunny for my 10th birthday. Since then I have also taken care of hamsters, birds, dogs, and cats. I am an expert in providing an environment where they can be comfortable and profusely loved, but I do not forget firm discipline where necessary. I am fully available on weekends for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting but I do require at least a 2-day notice. Additionally, I am available for walks and drop-ins all weekday evenings, anytime after 7 PM. At my client's home I have the best practices of pet- and property-handling honed down, which will keep both the client's pet(s) and property (as well as myself) safe and happy at all times. I trust that I will be provided with all the information I need to satisfy any expectations from my hosts during my visits. At my own home, I have two cats, but I have enough space and accommodations to keep my client's pet(s) separated and happy as necessary.
“Natalie was Great! She was super responsive to our messages before and during pet sitting. Sent us great updates and the cutest pet news flash at the end to sum up Chief's time! SO CUTE!! Also, she is the only person who has managed to break through Chief's skeptical exterior, and he seemed to really like her! She's definitely got a magic about her! Thank you again Natalie!”

About: I've cared for animals since I was a kid. From early morning walks to baths and meals, I have pet-sat for neighbours, friends and family for many years. Most recently I boarded a pet pig.

I have a spacious house and tree-lined yard - so location and timing are flexible. I have a car and will come to your residence if needed.

We will definitely be using her services again in the future!”

About: I have been the proud pup parent to a beagle and currently a shitzu. Patience is well built in to my nature! I enjoy taking dogs out on walks, cuddles on the couch, and watching them explore my fenced yard. A natural dog lover at heart, I have hosted short term and long term stays and they are always happy to return to my home (sometimes they don’t even want to leave!) I work from home and able to provide loving care and supervision. I’ll ensure your dog is well taken care of in my air conditioned home where they can choose which dog bed to lounge on, toy to play with, front window ledge to sit on & watch the birds or chase squirrels in my yard. I will care for your pet as my own. I’d like a clear understanding of known allergies, fears (ie. vacuum, fireworks) anxious behaviour & feeding routine. I’ll follow your dog rules as best as possible, but my dog is used to sharing lots of treats lol
About: I grew up with cats and dogs my entire life. I was a trained foster volunteer at the Humane Society during my undergrad and currently live in a multi-generational home with my family with two cats and one dog. I have a background with handling Hounds and Terriers, and was previously an Airbnb Superhost for 8 years! I am a high energy, active individual with a strong sense of routine and gentle but commanding presence. I especially love walks in all weather and playing with pets. I currently work 9-5 during the week only with vacation and some remote flexibility. Growing up, I wanted to be a vet and live on a farm, but here I am working in banking and living in the suburbs! I am available for weekend and extended long-weekend care with a preference for pet sitting in rural communities in the Collingwood area and Prince Edward County where I split my weekend time. My almost 3 year old son will be joining me and I understand it is my responsibility to keep him safe and ensure he is not bothering your fur babies. I am very aware of the instincts of your animals to run especially when their family is away. I will be vigilant about managing any open doors and keeping your fur baby on their routine and watching for their signals. I will keep your fur family safe. With my background in being an Airbnb super host, I am happy to look after your house plants and provide light house cleaning, gardening, grass and snow removal.
About: I loved working with animals since childhood, tending to goats, sheep, horses, and chickens! I have a lot of patience when it comes to animals, especially dogs and cats! I currently have time off and have plenty of time to meet and spend time with your pets. I am available for multiple walks a day or in house sitting, just let me know what you’re looking for and I am happy to accommodate! Looking forward to meeting you and your pets!! I love living an active lifestyle so I’d love to incorporate dog walking into my everyday activity! As of now, my schedule is open throughout the week during the day! If I’m hosting pets, I have a fenced in yard for them to play in. If I am pet sitting then I will make sure I am following the guidelines set up by the owner.
About: I’m like every other sitter. We love sitting cause we love animals. Your fur baby is my fur baby and they will be treated like family. Pet care fits right in with my daily and weekly routine. If I don’t have a dog by my side it a sad day. Have owned dogs for 40+ years The way I care for pets either mine or yours is attention, affection, lots of activities and peaceful rest times. Always play and rewarding vocal tones.
About: There has never been a period in my life that I have not owned a pet of my own. I also have experience working in vet clinics and caring for other people's pets in my own home. I love all animals of all shapes, sizes and needs. I work from home most days and can schedule my day as needed, meaning I can get up to attend to pets at any time. My evenings and weekend are work free. I enjoy getting outdoors for walks with dogs and enjoy curling up with a cat and reading a book. Play time in a pets day is essential as well and lots of time is spent having fun! I have a 2 story home with finished basement. I have 2 cats, our dog sadly passed away recently but we are family that loves dogs. 2 teenage girls who are also animal lovers who have always had pets in their lives. Both very gentle, caring and helpful. If I am coming into your home I will follow your direction and respect your wishes when it comes to your fur babies.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Angus
We are so happy with Danielle's care. Danielle came to house sit for our two littles at our home while we were out of town for the day/evening. She sent photos and provided updates, and left our house clean and spotless. Will definitely rebook with Danielle in future.
Danielle is fabulous! We were nervous about leaving our puppy with someone in our home who we didn't know. Danielle took very good care of our girl, even gave her a bath when she got dirty! We really appreciated the photos and updates. We will 100% book with Danielle again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Angus on Rover is $63.83 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of September 2026, there are 334 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Angus. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Angus maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Angus walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Angus choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, identity check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
