About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them brings me so much joy. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. I believe every dog has their own personality and needs, and I love getting to know each one individually. My home is a calm and pet-friendly space, and I treat every dog that visits like family. I also understand how hard it can be to leave your pet in someone else’s care, which is why I make communication a top priority. I’m always happy to send photos and updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. As a full-time stay-at-home wife, I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day to care for your pup. Whether it’s a midday walk, or last-minute drop-ins, I’m here to help. I’m home most of the time, which means your dog will get lots of attention, interaction, and supervision—no long stretches alone. We have a friendly puppy of our own who loves to make new doggy friends! It’s a great environment for dogs who enjoy socializing and playing with others. I keep a calm, structured home where pets can feel safe and loved, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific routine or needs. Because I’m always nearby, I can give frequent potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles. I also provide quick responses and regular photo updates to keep you in the loop. My goal is to make you and your pet feel as comfortable and cared for as possible! I live in an house and go for daily walks, I also go across the road to a fairground to let my pup run around when we aren’t playing in our backyard!
About: I would love to give my attention and care to your pet, so while your away you know they are getting all the love and care they deserve!!

I will always try to make things work. I live on a farm, free from kids and other dogs. If I was giving the opportunity, I would make sure your dog would have the best experience possible!!
“Great experience, Rita was very accommodating to our dog. Specially our dog is a rescue and needs some time to get to know the person. Rita made it easy and our dog has warmed up faster than we thought!”
“Nayeli was amazing with our little fur baby. He had lots of fun and eat well. I will definitely be booking with Nayeli again. Nayeli provided pictures and updates of our little one. She is awesome”
“Shakira took such great care of my puppy! She gave tons of love, and kept me updated with cute pics. My pup was happy and well taken care of the whole time. When Bruce came home he was sweet and sleepy boy! Definitely will be coming back to Shakira for future dog care!”
“Sayali, thank you very much for taking such a good care of my little dude. I can tell he really enjoyed the time he spent with you all. He loved playing with your dogs 😍.”
“Kollin was amazing with our Rosie. He sent us so many pictures and videos of Rosie playing with all the pups. He was not phased when I handed him her ear infection meds. It was amazing. What really made us realize this was going to be our Rosie haven going forward was when we got stuck out of town because if horrible wheather and were stressing out about having to rush home to pick up Rosie. I messaged Kollin and he was so chil and did not mind our changing plans half way through the reservations. It was extremely kind and we'll never forget it. When we picked up Rosie she was in good spirits and we can tell how attached she got to Kollin and his wife. It melted my heart to see. Thank you both so much for everything!”
“My dog Harley's experience with Diana has been great. He has had a great deal of separation anxiety over the past six months but he is happy when we get to her home. Diana is very affectionate with Harley, as is her young daughter. Harley is very comfortable in their home now and I know he is being loved and taken good care of. Thank you for taking such great care of Harley!”
About: Every dog is different. I take time to understand your dog’s personality, energy level, diet, medical needs, and routines — so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I work from home and mostly available weekdays and weekends. Your dog will get my undivided attention and his safety is my top most priority I have a very big fenced yard and my dog will be there to accompany and play with your dog.

“My dog had a second day of daycare with Alexandria. When we arrived for drop-off, he did an excited little spin and couldn’t wait to go inside! At pick-up, he was happy and tired. He immediately zonked out when we got home. Alexandria is super reliable and responsive as a sitter and such a lovely person. Highly recommend. Thanks again!”
“Jennifer was and is awesome felt very comfortable leaving Rusty with her. It felt like home and he was a happy dog tired but very happy when he got home. I would not hesitate to have Jennifer again”
“I'm so happy I reached out to Sandra for daycare for my 9 month old herding pup, Buddy. She responded right away and asked all the right questions. I could tell right away she was a pro at reading dogs' body language and at kindly managing the behavioral issues we've been struggling with. She offered great advice and worked with him throughout his entire stay. He even trained at her side as she worked at the market which was an invaluable experience, especially for a nervous pup at his age. You can be confident leaving your pet with Sandra knowing they are in the best hands. I look forward to them spending more time together again soon.”
“Bee had lots of fun with Avijeet and Leo! Avijeet's dog Leo was very friendly and respectful, but energetic and playful enough to tire Bee out throughout the day. Bee came home happy and sleepy and she clearly enjoyed her time there. Thanks Avijeet!”
“My first time using Rover and I could not be happier! Smita was very reassuring with video/pic and text updates and my girls were genuinely happy in the videos. We did a day care day as a trial for my upcoming trip and I have to say I feel very at ease leaving my little ladies with Smita and her husband!”
“We frequently rebook with Angela :) Blue loves her and the whole family. She always sends photo/video updates and has been really flexible with my on/off work schedule. Would recommend Angela with no hesitation:)”
“She is wonderful! Liam loved her right away during the meet and greet. From the very first sitting, she went above and beyond. She was supposed to walk Liam and leave him at our house while we were away, but after receiving the hurricane amber alert, she immediately went to check on him and offered to take him to her home. We’re very happy to have found someone we can truly count on in town.”
“Marcia was absolutely wonderful with our 9 week old puppy. She gave him an at home feel and gave me piece of mind while I was working. I will definitely be having her watch our pup again!”
“Brittany was great! Very much appreciated the cute pictures of our dog enjoying the stay and when my dog was excited to see her on her next stay I was sure Mikka enjoyed her time too. My dog is slow to adjust to new people so it was great that Brittany was patient through it used to this behavior.”

There are 217 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Aylmer. About 87% of Aylmer sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
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.
Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's leash and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalized care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Aylmer commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
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 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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in ON ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
