About: Hello everyone! I am a 28 year old animal lover living in Aylmer Ontario. I have had a love of pets for my entire life. I have taken care of almost every animal imaginable in my time.

About: I’m currently studying animal science and have hands-on experience caring for my own dog. I also volunteer as a veterinary assistant in clinics, where I’ve gained skills in animal handling, health monitoring, and basic care. Additionally, I spent time in Costa Rica working with animals, which helped me build confidence with different breeds and temperaments. I’m attentive, patient, and committed to keeping pets safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine since I’m a student with a flexible schedule. I plan my days around classes, which allows me to dedicate consistent time for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I’m available mornings, evenings, and most weekends, and I always make sure pets get reliable attention and care. I prioritize safety, comfort, and routine when caring for pets in any home. I follow all instructions carefully, keep spaces clean and secure, and pay close attention to behavior and health. With my experience as a veterinary assistant, I’m confident handling pets calmly and recognizing any concerns early. I always aim to create a stress-free, loving environment.
“Nicole was an excellent pet sitter and took great care of my cat. She was reliable, attentive, and kept me updated, which gave me real peace of mind. My cat was happy and well cared for when I returned. I would definitely recommend Nicole and would happily book her again.”

“Walter was great for our puppy, easy to communicate with, followed instructions and sent great updates and pictures! I will definitely use him again and would recommend him to others!”

“Michele did a great job watching our dog! Shes very responsible and had 2 meet ups before making a decision that her and Tex was a fit. While we were gone, she stayed in contact and sent pictures and updated. Tex adores her and he is comfortable when she's in our home. Michele makes sure everything is cleaned up and is resourceful when shes not familiar with where items are. Michele is very trustworthy & caring, we highly recommend. We can tell that Tex has been well cared for and has been thoroughly spoilt by you. Thank you Michele”

About: For the past 6 years, I’ve raised a Labrador retriever since he was a puppy, cared for dogs as if they were my own. I truly believe pets are family, and they deserve to feel safe, loved, and understood — especially when their owners are away. I have experience with energetic puppies who need patience and gentle training guidance, as well as senior dogs who require a slower pace, extra comfort, and attentive care. I take time to learn each dog’s personality, routines, and little quirks so they feel secure and happy in my care. My goal is simple: allow dogs to sniff & have fun during walks, tire them for good sleep & keep the tails wagging. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule to ensure dogs receive consistent attention, regular walks, playtime, and quiet rest periods. I enjoy starting and ending my day with walks and check-ins, so your dog gets steady care rather than rushed visits. Because I plan my week around the pets I’m caring for, I’m able to maintain their routines as closely as possible — feeding times, exercise, medication (if needed), and lots of affection. Caring for dogs isn’t something I “fit in” — it’s something I genuinely prioritize and enjoy. I have a fenced backyard & a very friendly Labrador Retriever dog ready to play & we provide a safe, calm, and structured environment in my home where dogs feel comfortable and cared for. I follow each dog’s regular routine as closely as possible — including feeding schedules, walk times, play sessions, and rest periods — so they feel secure and settled. For boarding and daycare, I make sure dogs get a healthy balance of exercise, mental stimulation, and quiet time. I’m attentive to their body language and personality, whether they’re energetic and playful or need a slower, gentler pace. During walks, I focus on safety, leash manners, and giving them a positive, enjoyable experience. Most importantly, I treat every dog like family and provide regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and at ease.
“Jen is beyond WONDERFUL! Can't ask for a more caring, kind and loving person to look after our fur baby when we are away. Our fur baby is ALWAYS happy to see Jen and that puts us at ease. We love having Jen as apart of our family. ?”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life. Growing up, I cared for a black lab, a husky, and a Bernese mountain dog; who lived to be 16, showing the level of love and care I give to my pets. I also have experience with smaller animals like guinea pigs and fish. Currently, I have three French bulldogs, a cat, and a budgie, so I’m very comfortable managing different personalities, energy levels, and care routines. I have hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding, basic care, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my schedule to allow time for walks, feeding, and check-ins, and I’m flexible to meet each pet’s needs. I prioritize consistency so your pet stays on their usual routine. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life with my own animals, so it fits very naturally into my routine. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and supervised environment where pets are treated like family. I pay close attention to their behavior, energy levels, and comfort, and I make sure they have a safe space, regular feeding times, play, and rest. When caring for pets in their own home, I understand how important it is for them to feel secure in a familiar environment. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible. Whether that’s specific feeding schedules, walks, litter care, or playtime and I take a gentle, patient approach, especially with shy or anxious pets. I also keep owners updated so they feel comfortable knowing their pet is in good hands.
About: I’ve had dogs for 20+ years, while I lived with my parents we fostered Australian shepherds and in 2015 I adopted one of our fosters. Her name is Olive. As well I have a cat and his name is Korin. I love having animals at home with our kids. I’m currently on maternity leave so my schedule is quite flexible. My son starts school from 8-12 so anything outside drop off and pick up times are the best for me and the baby I have a lovely fenced in yard for my girl, I love playing with our animals and lots of snuggles are always had in our home.
About: 🐶 About Me Hi! I’m Elyssa — a reliable, attentive animal lover who genuinely enjoys caring for pets as if they’re my own. I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving your pet with someone, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m calm, patient, and very tuned in to animal behaviour. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or prefers a slower, cozy vibe, I adjust to their personality and routine. I’m especially attentive to signs of discomfort, stress, or changes in behaviour — your pet’s safety and wellbeing always come first. ⸻ 🐾 My Experience • Experience with medium to large breeds • Comfortable with senior dogs and dogs with mobility considerations • Familiar with basic training cues and reinforcing good habits • Confident handling dogs on leash • Experienced with feeding routines, medication schedules, and special instructions I also understand that some dogs can be anxious when their owners are away. I focus on keeping their routine consistent and providing reassurance, structure, and lots of positive attention. ⸻ 🏡 What You Can Expect ✔️ Reliable and punctual ✔️ Frequent photo and video updates ✔️ Clear communication ✔️ Clean and respectful care of your home ✔️ Lots of love, belly rubs, and enrichment I treat every pet like family — and I know they aren’t “just dogs.” They’re your babies. I work shift-based hours, which gives me flexibility that a traditional 9–5 schedule doesn’t. On my days off, I have full daytime availability for walks, drop-ins, and quality time. On workdays, I’m often available mornings, evenings, or overnight depending on my rotation. Because I’m used to managing a rotating schedule, I’m very organized and intentional with my time. I only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to, and I avoid overbooking so every dog receives calm, focused attention. Shift work also means I’m comfortable with early mornings, late evenings, and non-traditional routines — which is perfect for pet parents who work long hours or unconventional schedules themselves. Your dog won’t feel rushed or squeezed in — they’ll have dedicated, reliable care built into my week. I bring calm energy, strong communication, attention to detail, and genuine care. Your dog will be treated with patience, structure, and lots of positive reinforcement — like they’re my own.
About: I am currently enrolled in school to become a veterinary technician. My passion for animals has lead me to become fear free certified and always go above and beyond for the animals in my care. I have grown up with large breed dogs my whole life, and recently became a dog owner with my first dog! I have worked in a doggy daycare for 2 years where I was a supervisor. I have also worked at an animal shelter caring for dogs while they are waiting for their forever home. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages, temperaments and training levels. I am very passionate about working with dogs who have some behavioural issues making them “unwanted” in the shelter system. I have experience socializing, training, introducing dogs and advocating for dogs needs. I am very involved in the dog world and am always looking to get more experience with them. I provide quality care that is trustworthy and respectful to the owner and the dogs. I am a part time student in the fall and winter allowing me to have a flexible schedule during the day to tend to your pets needs. I know the importance of having a consistent schedule with your pets and strive to be able to provide that for your animals individual needs. I am flexible and able to work with you to create a daily or weekly schedule that fits your animals and your needs. Safety and confidentiality are very important to me as a pet owner. I know it's hard to trust a random stranger with the care of your precious furry children. I take pride in being able to say I am a very trust worthy and responsible care taker of animals. How would I want someone to care for my animals when I'm away? That's how I will care for your animal. Allowing pet owners to have peace of mind that their pets are in excellent hands. I provide drop in services to play with your animals from the comfort of their home, outside on a long scenic nature walk or a short walk while you're at work, even a quick playtime in the backyard if that's what the love to do! I am happy to enrich pets lives when you need the extra help or are away.

Sarah did an amazing job taking care of our two cats while we were away. Both our cats can be very messy with litter, food and water. When we returned our house looked great and the cats were well cared for! Sarah kept great communication and never missed a day that we requested. Absolutely will have her back next time.

There are 531 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Aylmer. About 83% 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.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Aylmer stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Aylmer 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 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.
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.
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.
