About: Hello and welcome! I’m excited to be opening my home to pet parents who need a safe, loving spot for their furry family members during work days, vacations, or while traveling through the area. As a dedicated dog mom to my sweet beagle Ruby, I know how important it is to find someone you truly trust. I'm an avid reader and am currently studying through self-paced correspondence right from home. Because my studies are entirely at my own pace, I'm right around the house all day long unless I'm stepping out for school runs. Your pets will rarely be left alone and will always have company! Experience & Background: My love for animals goes back as far as I can remember—I grew up always having cats and dogs around, and I've carried that lifelong passion for animal care with me ever since. In addition to a lifetime of everyday pet ownership, I graduated from the University of Guelph Ridgetown Campus in 2015 with a Veterinary Office Administration certificate, which included hands-on training and vet assistant experience. While offering professional care through this platform is a new chapter for me, keeping animals safe, comfortable, and loved is second nature. Pet care is a part-time side gig that I run alongside my studies, keeping my schedule structured and flexible for a few furry guests at a time. - Smoke-free home with a fully fenced backyard (4 to 5 feet tall) that backs onto neighbouring yards. - For in-home stays, pets are closely supervised, kept company throughout the day, and integrated smoothly into our routine alongside my friendly beagle, Ruby. - For cat drop-in visits in your home, I follow your exact care instructions and routines. - Safe local pickup and drop-off are also available using a clean back seat with protective covers and dog seatbelt leashes.
“Carol and family was a second home to Bauer! They took great care and we knew he was well looked after all weekend. We will definitely have Carol look after Bauer in the future without hesitation. Thank you so much!”
“Wags spent 10 nights with Wanda and I am very happy with my first experience with both Wanda and Rover. Everything went smoothly, from our first meet and greet, to picking Wags up after his stay. I was so happy to receive a few photos of Wags enjoying his stay and to hear that he fit right in with Wanda in her home. I will not hesitate to use her again and to recommend her to others looking for a comfortable and loving home for their pets.”
“This was Skye second boring at Sayalis place and he seems to love it. Sayali has been very patient and caring while we adapt him to sleepover somewhere else. I would 100% recommend.”
“Josey was absolutely amazing! She spoiled our dog with lots of attention, enrichment of all kinds, and gave him a place he could feel at home. Our dog was so happy there! Could not have asked for a better dog sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Another amazing stay with Jen’s household for Mia- routine check ins with pictures helped being so far away be peaceful and stress free! Mia was so tired after playing so much she slept all afternoon when we got home ❤️”
“Lea was amazing with my cat. He's normally very shy and hides the whole time, but she convinced him to come out! Her home is very clean and I would absolutely book with her again!”
“Hillary was great looking after Luna and it was a fantastic first time using this service. Communication was good with pictures sent each day. It was nice to see Luna having a fun time while in Hillary's care. We woukd definitely use her again.”
“Rebekah and her team were wonderful with our dog Loki! As a dog mom dropping her pup off for the first time they were understanding of my concerns and helped us feel very comfortable leaving him in their care. We will definitely be reaching out to them again!”
“Adlynn and her family, two doggies and partner, did an outstanding job of caring for my dog. He was very nervous and not used to being away from me. Adlynn was able to gradually get him to feel safe and he really enjoyed the rest of the time there. I would highly recommend!”
“Lynn and Jeff were great sitters for our frenchie Dozer. They were very responsive to our messages and Lynn sent pictures daily of a dozer to keep in touch with us while we were away. This is the second time Lynn and Jeff looked after Dozer and we felt comfortable he would be well taken care off. We will definitely be calling on Lynn and Jeff next time we need a sitter for Dozer.”
“Leo was taken care of very well ! Initially there was some communication gap and confusion but then William and his daughter Hilary really communicated well and caref greatly for leo! Will definitely recommend them !!!”
“Trudie was great with Penelope and kept me updated with photos and texts to let me know how things were going while I was away. I could relax knowing my dog was in good hands while I was gone. I will definitely be booking Trudie again!”
“Sue is a very kind and caring person that loves dogs. She took very good care of my dog while I was away. I would gladly trust her to take care of my dog again without any reservations.”
“Mohiny & Lucas O. were the best puppy sitters ever!! We met for a meet and greet and connected with them right away - we just knew they would take exceptional care of our pet. Their genuine love of animals was evident from the start. Our pet was very happy with them and enjoyed all the walks she took with Mohiny & Lucas O. Mohiny & Lucas O. sent us lots of pictures of our pet in action and kept us very well informed about how she was eating, resting, and playing throughout her time with them. We would happily have them look after our pet anytime knowing that she will be very well cared for and loved. Thank you, Mohiny & Lucas!!”
“Bernadette is incredible! We are so lucky to have found her to care for our dog. It was our first time leaving our older dog and she immediately put us at ease with frequent updates, photos and a clear love for dogs. Throughout our time away, she provided phenomenal care of our dog, provided excellent updates and communication and demonstrates so much care and expertise. Bernadette truly understood our dogs personality and made his stay the best. We would absolutely love to have her mind our dog again and would recommend her to all of our friends and family! Thank you Bernadette and family for the best care of our dog!”

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Aylmer 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 Aylmer
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. On Rover:
- 91% 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.
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.
