“I left my one year old puppy, who has never been away from me, with Eva for three days. I was quite worried because she usually gets anxious whenever I leave her with someone else. To my surprise, she settled in with Eva almost immediately, as if she had known her forever. Honestly, it almost hurt my feelings a little because she adjusted so well, but that just shows how amazing Eva is with dogs. I would absolutely recommend Eva to anyone looking for the best possible care for their pup. She also sent plenty of daily updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease while I was away.”
“Mariella and her family are wonderful with our Rocky They are very loving and we felt very comfortable with Rocky being with them during our 2 week vacation We would recommend Mariella to anyone needing their services Veronica and Paul”
“Norman had the best time getting spoiled by Bren. She was so accommodating, and kind with our senior pup it is obvious she really cares for her pups. Im not sure he wanted to come home! 😁. 100% recommended.”
“This was our Dog's first time staying with a sitter, and we were honestly nervous about using Rover. We had tried other sitters for a fit, but she never connected with them. With our trip coming up, we found Shelly and her family at the very last minute and didn’t even have time for a meet‑and‑greet. What immediately drew us in was that they had young kids even more than having their own dogs because she absolutely loves children. We knew the transition would be hard for her, but Shelly and her family went above and beyond. They sent us daily updates, were incredibly patient, and gave her the space she needed. Over time, she warmed up and even started going on walks with them after 3days of not going on a walk, She quickly transitioned to 4 walks in a day. Shelly was reassuring throughout, reminding us that given her age, this adjustment was completely normal, and that by her third stay she’d likely be even more comfortable. I would recommend Shelly and her family over and over again.”
“Am so happy with the experience. If only Gretzky could talk then he would probably say the same. Valerie and family are very sweet and I will surely pass the good words about Valerie and Rover to family and friends. Thank you so much Valerie!”
“Mike was amazing with Sam when he cared for him for a night. Mike sent me lots of photos and kept me updated on how Sam was making out, which took the stress out of my leaving him when I was away. I would recommend Mike as a caregiver for anyone looking for their pets!”
“Chetan was wonderful with our two boys! A home away from home. So fun that the dogs got to interact with farm animals. Chetan gave us regular update and took great care of our two dogs. Thanks again!!”
“Madison & Jeffrey were such great pet sitters for our dogs Arlo&Simba. They took them for multiple walks, sent pictures each day and you can tell they have had a lot of experience with dogs and always knew exactly what they needed to feel comfortable. We feel 100% confident in their abilities and would recommend them to anyone needing a sitter!”
“Milana did an excellent job caring for my dog. She was responsible, communicative, and very attentive to my dog’s needs. It was clear she truly cares about animals, and my dog felt comfortable and happy with her. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust Millana again and highly recommend her services.”
“I left my seven month old golden retriever puppy with Mathieu and Esther (and Marlow!) over the weekend. They took excellent care of her! Puppies are a handful, and they went over and above. My dog got special instructions after being spayed, and they were super accommodating. I highly recommend them!”
“Manuel and Maricris were quick to respond, were able to accommodate my last-minute booking, and kept me updated throughout my dog's stay with photos and messages, which gave me real peace of mind. Overall, it was a smooth, positive experience, and I'm very grateful for the great care they provided. Highly recommend!”
About: I have a innate love of animals. Large or small, confident or timid, young or old, they all have a place in my heart. I am patient, adaptable and calm even when others may not be. My critical thinking skills help me to troubleshoot any situation your pet might challenge me with. I always look for a win-win outcome. Your pets walk and play time every day is an important part of their lives, and I look forward to spending my time with them. Georgia is an American Staffy that we rescued last year, at approximately 1 years old. Since then we have focused on all levels of training, including agility, to help deal with her reactivity. We have made tremendous progress over the last year with her. I am available between 7 and 6 Monday to Saturday. Sundays and holidays can also be accommodated. My flexible schedule means that I can provide care on your schedule. I know that timing and routine are important to your pet and yourself, and I am punctual and dependable. I understand how important the safety of your furry friend is to you. Should your pet join us in our home, they will have the opportunity to enjoy our fully fenced back yard during play time. During walking times, there are many lovely trails and pathways in our quiet residential neighborhood that we can enjoy together.
“Randi did an amazing job looking after my beagle Gus! She sent lots of pictures and updates of their adventures. I felt good knowing I left Gus with someone who really cared for him and made sure he was happy and felt loved. I will definitely bring Gus back to Randi in the future!”
“I highly recommend Saksham for your pet sitting needs. Our dog stayed at his home for two days and I know she was well taken care of by Saksham and his wife. We received photos and videos from Saksham and he was highly professional and responsive. I totally trust Saksham and his wife and will call on them again for taking care of our dog. I know our dog will be happy to see them again!”
“Shelley is an absolute queen. I could tell my pup was sad when he left :( She was always quick to respond, met with me before so she could ask me specific questions about my breed of dog and explain to me his routine so she could take the best care of him possible. You can tell animals have her heart and it’s her passion to take care of them. She even took the time to clip Archies nails and give him some ointment for his ear that was bugging him. Would recommend her to absolutely anyone. She is a treasure forsure ?”
“Camila was awesome with Milo ? she was very caring and also sent us lots of videos and photos of milo while we were away . Milo was just 3 months old and so we were a little skeptical at first . But trust me , camila is the best and milo enjoyed his stay . Her kids were also very good with him and played with him. Thank you Camila ! Definitely recommend her for dog sitting”
“Dewey had an excellent overnight stay with Danielle and her family. She was very responsive and gave great regular feedback letting us know how Dewey was doing and provided pictures as well.”
“I want to start by saying that Dana & his partner are truly god sent pet whisperers! Our pup shaggy is known to either shy away from eating or not socialize when we are away, however shaggy felt right at home. It can be so hard to leave your loved one behind, but Dana sent daily messages with updates on how happy shaggy was. Not only was it comforting, but it left our mind at ease knowing shaggy was in good hands. As soon as I met Dana & his partner I felt like they were family. They are so kind and loving. They are well knowledged individuals who will truly spoil, and love your pup as their own. I truly cannot say enough good things. I know shaggy is missing them as well. If I could continuously give Dana & his partner hugs through my phone, as I write this I would. THANK you BOTH! You both are truly amazing!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your postal code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighbourhood.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Ayr 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 Ayr
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 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.
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. 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
