“Kari is absolutely fantastic! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to care for your pet dog. I have a senior dog of 14 years who moves very slowly and Kari is so patient and caring with him. We are so grateful for the care she extends to our dog.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I’ve always been the person my family and friends ask to help watch their dog or to just stop by to let them out and feed them. I’m also capable of following a routine if needed and or making my own planned out routine for the dog. Currently I work part time at petsmart as a dog trainer where I teach classes for all breed and ages of dogs, I’m an accredited trainer and I plan to be certified in the future. I have experience with puppies all ages and I am comfortable with giving medication to old dogs if needed. Currently I work part time at petsmart so I have lost of free time during the week to watch, walk or let out your dog if needed. I am available also for routine visits for the same pet. For all of my pets I have kept or taken care of, I have always followed a routine that I am either given or I create on my own to I make sure nothing gets left behind or forgotten. My goal is to ensure i reach your dog’s daily needs for the time that I’m there with them.
About: As a lifelong pet owner of both dogs and cats, I bring years of hands-on experience and a deep, genuine love for animals. I understand the unique needs of different species, breeds, ages, and temperaments—whether it’s a playful pup, a nervous rescue, a curious kitten, or a senior cat needing gentle companionship. I’m attentive to body language and behavior, with a calm, patient approach that helps animals feel at ease. I have experience with leash manners, basic training commands, medication administration, and daily routines like feeding, litter cleaning, and grooming. Whether caring for a high-energy dog or a shy cat, I tailor my care to their comfort and personality. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to prioritize pet care throughout the week. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, depending on your pet's routine. I make it a point to give each visit the time and attention it deserves, never rushing, and ensuring pets feel seen and cared for. Respecting your space and your pet’s routine is my top priority. I follow all instructions closely—feeding, medications, walking routes, and house rules—to maintain consistency and safety. I keep communication open with regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you feel reassured while you’re away. I’m clean, reliable, and always treat your home and your pets as if they were my own.
“Erika helped us with our little guy on our wedding day and was fantastic! She made sure he wasn’t alone for too long and got lots of snuggles. This was our first time using Rover of any online service for pets and were impressed with our experience. Thank you Erika!”

“Marilyn saved the day while we were away on our vacation - our kitty sitter was unable to make it and Marilyn stepped in as soon as I contacted her. She went above and beyond, leaving us to enjoy our vacation. I highly recommend Marilyn's reliable services! Thank you!!”

About: I have immense experience with various pets. I’ve owned a family cat and two rescue dogs in my life, and fostered a homeless dog for a year. I can deal with any challenges you may have with your pet, such as anxiety, aggression, and administering medication. I am currently unemployed so I have plenty of times available. Shoot me a message and we will try to figure out something that works. I offer the utmost care and respect for any animal. I have experience working with pets with severe anxiety, as well as aggression towards both animals and humans. I will treat your pet with empathy and make your pet’s needs and safety my #1 priority.

About: I am currently a practicing vet tech who has an abundance of experience taking care of pets! I have been watching friends and families pets since I can remember including cats, dogs, and farm animals! I have worked various jobs in pet sitting/boarding and walking:) I am in my final year of the Vet Tech program so I am decently busy during the week but am flexible when it comes to setting up appointments and meeting customers needs:) I do nothing but make sure your pet gets the best care and attention possible! I want them to be as comfortable as possible especially with a new person coming into their home! Treats are always a great ice breaker as well as letting them take their time to adjust to me:)
“Maria arrived as requested, took Fletcher out for a walk that met his abilities ( he’s 12 and has challenges) and refreshed his water. Appreciate the peace of mind having someone reliable to check in on him while we are away. Thanks Maria!”

“Carolyne has been so diligent and caring of our 11 year old cat Texas. Daily up dates and pictures helped me feel confident that Texas was well and in good hands during our absence. I will definitely use Carolyne’s services again when the need arises. Thank you, Carolyne.”

About: Hi! I’m Karina, and I’ve always had a huge love for animals, especially dogs. Dogs have a special way of bringing me back to calm, connection and joy. I truly believe every dog has their own personality, story and unique way of speaking to your soul. ❤️ I love caring for animals with all kinds of needs, and I have a special soft spot for the ones who need a little extra TLC. Over the years, I’ve cared for animals who have experienced abandonment, neglect, anxiety and fear, and I’ve always loved finding ways to help them feel safe, build trust and create a special bond. Seeing an animal overcome a fear, become more confident and experience life a little more fully brings me so much happiness. Every animal deserves to feel safe, loved and happy! My experience comes from all the amazing animals who have crossed my path with different personalities and needs. I’ve cared for anxious, fearful and reactive dogs, as well as plenty of happy, easygoing pups who simply want to walk, play, explore and soak up some attention. I always approach each dog with patience, positive reinforcement, respect and lots of love. Within my family, circle of friends and neighbourhood community, I’ve naturally become the go-to person for dog sitting, check-ins and plenty of extra TLC. I have a flexible schedule and genuinely love being available when people need someone they trust. And if I’m at a social gathering and there’s a dog in the room… well, that’s my new buddy! 😂🐶 I’m usually the person saying hello, giving them some attention and getting to know them. I love taking dogs on walks and little adventures, watching them explore, sniff, play and experience new things. I also enjoy giving them one-on-one relaxation and pampering time, including gentle stretching, massage and wellness care. Dogs give us so much love, and I think they deserve plenty of time to relax and be spoiled, too! My background also includes working with children with special needs, seniors and foster care, which has taught me to be especially nurturing, patient and attentive to individual needs. I have a current broad police check and take the trust that comes with caring for someone’s beloved pet very seriously. My services include: • Dog walking and adventure walks • Dog visits and companionship • Wellness and check-in visits • At-home pampering and relaxation • Gentle stretching and massage • Personalized care for anxious, fearful or reactive dogs I don’t just want to care for your dog — I want them to feel cared for, understood and loved. ❤️ If your dog loves attention, affection, adventure and being doted on, I’d love to meet them! 🐾 I am a stay-at-home mom with a lot of availability and flexibility. I enjoy being out and traveling, and what better way to be busy than playing with pets! I have a fenced yard and a comfortable, pet-friendly home where dogs can feel safe, relaxed and cared for. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or in their own home, I take the time to get to know them and pay attention to their body language, energy and behaviour so I can understand what they may need. Every dog is different, and I’m happy to make reasonable adjustments to help them feel comfortable. If a dog is anxious, nervous or overwhelmed, I’ll adjust my approach and environment to help them settle in. If they’re playful and adventurous, I’m happy to keep them engaged and active. And if they simply want to relax beside me and receive some extra love and attention, I’m more than happy to spoil them! I aim to provide thoughtful, personalized care based on each pet’s personality and comfort level. My goal is for them to feel safe, comfortable, happy and cared for while you’re away, with plenty of patience, affection and attention along the way. 🐾❤️
About: Since a young age, I have been exposed to dogs as my mother was a vet technician (now retired) in the Durham Region community. Since then, I have developed a love for dogs and I am always looking for an opportunity to spend time with dogs. From 2006 to present, I have been lucky enough to look after four dogs of my own that were really truly a member of the family and enjoyed looking after them. As a dog sitter, I am available to dog sit for those exciting vacations that you hope to take or simply walk your dog during those busy days at home or at work! For my availability, contact me for more information! I look forward to hearing from you soon! I am currently working part time in the retail industry while in university full time, so my schedule may be different from time to time. My availability can be discussed to fit your pet’s needs! At my client’s home, I will always be there for your pet! When we aren’t taking a walk outside, I like to sit and relax with your pet with a book or watching television. If your pet wants to go outside, we will do that, play fetch or just spend time outside and enjoy the weather!

About: I have taken care of my own dog for 5 years, I have dog-sat and cat-sat for my friends, and I am currently in school for a veterinary assistant program which I love! *I do not do overnight house-sitting but I can house-sit for several hours in a day. *female clients only for safety purposes *fees are calculated on an individual basis. I will take into account the CRA’s kilometric rate when commuting to/from your house, Rover’s 20% cut, commute time, how long I am staying at your house or how long the walk(s) is, and your pet’s age/needs/behaviour/temperament I’m currently in school full time but I’m half in-person, half-online, and I have Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays off, with Friday classes ending at 1pm. When I’m with your pet, I will walk them, play with them, take them out for bathroom breaks, feed them, cuddle with them, and make them feel super loved and comfortable. I can give them their medications if you leave instructions on what to do!
About: I spent 12 years caring for my family cat and learned how to keep pets safe, calm, and happy. I’m patient, responsible, and committed to excellent care. I work full‑time, but I’m available for pet care from Thursday to Saturday and can accept same‑day bookings. On Wednesdays, I’m available after 6 PM. If voluntary time off is available at 3 PM, I can leave work then and arrive shortly after if a client needs care on Wednesday. My dad is allergic, so dogs can’t enter my home. I provide outdoor care with full supervision, using my fenced backyard and dog‑friendly indoor break spots.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ashburn
Melanie was absolutely wonderful with our puppy! She was extremely accommodating and even went out of her way to visit our house twice because we have a puppy who needed the extra attention. She was so caring and made us feel completely comfortable knowing our puppy was in good hands. She was also incredibly helpful and patient when I was trying to figure out how to use the app. We really appreciated everything she did and would definitely recommend Melanie to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!

Thanks again for helping out with my dogs this weekend on such short notice! I was nervous inviting a stranger to my home but you are a very kind and generous woman offering to help others look after their pets and in the brief time we had to get to know each other I felt comfortable leaving my dogs in your care! I loved the pictures you sent to show the dogs are good and well looked after! You did an excellent job! I would definitely recommend you to anyone looking for a sitter! Very much appreciated, thank you 🙏

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Many sitters respond to requests in under an hour. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once.
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.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:
- Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
- House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
- Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.
Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.
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 Ashburn 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!
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 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, your payment method is charged at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
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.
