“Susan was great with my fur baby. I was in and out of service a good portion of the weekend, but every now and then I would get updates on how my Pooch was doing with photos. In addition, she had the service of pickup and drop off, which was extremely helpful for me as I was tied up helping with the wedding. Previously, my only option had been taking Sitka to a boarding kennel. Every time it would be about a week of her coming down from all the stress and anxiety of being around all the barking misbehaved dogs. Typically would come back with some kind of stomach indigestion. The important thing, is that she needs medication twice a day, and with the boarding kennel I really wondered how consistent the medication administration was. I can see why Susan has five star reviews. I wouldn't hesitate to contact her again. Thank you again for taking care of my fur baby. -Ty”

“Had a meet & greet and immediately knew that my Kobi would be in good hands with Brittany. Turned out he was in great hands! She sent lots of pics showing what he was up to, which was really reassuring, and I know Kobi would easily go back for more adventures with her sweet family!”

“Amber is Fantastic! She provides a warm and inviting space for my dog. Copper is a joy to be around. Amber is great at providing updates, taking the dogs on adventure and spending quality time. Zero stress leaving my fluff with her.”

“This was our dog's first long separation from us and Adam was great. Our dog really took a liking to him and enjoyed hanging out with his dog, Mr. Pitts. Adam was flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and attentive to meal and snacks. Will go back to Adam next time.”

“We had a great experience with Kevin and Jenny. They were very friendly and quickly adapted our dog into their household, making sure he felt relaxed and comfortable during his stay. They send regular updates and kept us in the loop, including photos - no small feat since our pup doesn't like to sit still for them! We wouldn't hesitate to book with them again.”

“A big help when I suddenly was in town for the day for a tour and needed boarding for my dog during the day, during a holiday weekend. My dog is a recent rescue and nervous around other dogs, but she had a glorious time and I’m so glad for all the bonding, and for the open spaces that she was encouraged to explore outside on the land and inside the home.”

“Janine and her family took such great care of Natty-Bo! Lots of fun play-time, couch snuggles, photos and love. This was our first time leaving our pup and we had zero concerns while we were away. Thank you so much for that peace of mind!”

“It was so lovely to return to collect Finn after 3 weeks international travel to have him calm, washed and ready to go. Carol has been a delight to work with and her communication while we were away was great. Finn and I both agree that we have found his home away from home. Thank you Carol (and Augie, Rupert and Mike) x”

“My dog Hank had a great time with Catherine & Douglas! They sent lots of pictures with him playing with their boys, swimming, and relaxing in the yard. I wasn’t sure he was going to want to come home after his doggie holiday. :) Would 100% recommend!”

“Aparna took excellent care of my dog. Honey went on a long off leash walk everyday and was given lots of time with enrichment toys. Honey loved hanging out with Aparna’s dog. I received many pictures and videos from Aparna. This was my first experience with Rover and it was a very positive experience. I definitely recommend Aparna as a pet sitter!”

“Dominique and her family were great! She made sure she understood our dog’s habits and needs and went out of her way to accommodate them. We have a senior dog who came home tired, but content. I highly recommend Dominique and will be contacting her when we need a pet sitter again!”

“Ingrid did a fantastic job looking after my dog. She was very accommodating with my inconvenient times and sent photos and made sure he was safe. I’ll be using Ingrid again for the next time I’m away!”

“Lisa and David took amazing care of our puppy - Luna! They were very responsive in the inquiry process and provided pictures and updates while caring for Luna. Their property is perfect for dogs, allowing them a safe space to explore the outdoors, as well as a lovely dog friendly home (which they puppy proofed for Luna!). They have two border collies that welcomed Luna into their pack. Luna came back to us very happy and well behaved. Lisa and David took the time to reinforce the training we were already working on with her. We will definitely use Lisa and David again and highly recommend them!”

“Kelly and Ian were the ideal care takers for our dog while we were on holidays! They suggested a meet and greet walk before hand so that they (including their dog Luca) and our dog could meet and play in a neutral area before dropping Trouble off at their home. Kelly sent us daily updates including photos and videos of how Trouble was doing (which she had settled in minutes of us dropping her off!) They went on multiple hikes/adventures and ensured that she got plenty of exercise and love. The two pups (our dog and theirs) got along so well we were worried Trouble wouldn’t want to leave lol! Fantastic first Rover experience, we would highly recommend Kelly and Ian to anyone who is in need of care for their dog! We look forward to using them again in the future!”

“We had a family emergency and Andrea was willing to be flexible and keep us updated on our pup so we could focus on what we needed to without having to worry at all about our dog at home. Andrea has been making our dog feel loved and cared for by boarding when needed and daycare hangouts for over six months. She is amazing and our dog loves every minute with her!”

“Marie was wonderful with our bunnies! It was our first time leaving them at home and having someone from Rover come in to care from them. Marie came over a few days before to meet me and go over their care. She was very kind and showed interest in our buns, and she was available Christmas day which was a huge help. I wouldn't hesitate to hire Marie again.”

“Janine was wonderful. She took great care of my little beastie, Squeeks, and was very accommodating about picking up and dropping off keys at a nearby location. She sent pics daily and was clearly someone who knew how to play with cats.”


“Madison was a lifesaver when I was in a pinch! Tuna is pretty easygoing, but I'm so grateful she stepped in while I was out of town for 30 hours. Even without an in-person meeting, she visited twice, kept me well-informed, and made everything seamless. Highly recommend!”

“I had complete confidence that my dog would enjoy being with Adam. I had never left her with someone she didn't know. But his gentle, caring demeanor reasured both myself and Daisy. She went quite willingly to begin her adventure. He cared for her for a full day and I am very grateful. I was able to visit my Grand daughter with no worries about how my pet was. I hope to let Daisy enjoy more time with Adam..”

“Robin had the best time at Marie’s, her dogs are super gentle and friendly and they entertained him all day. She was also very responsive on the pre- planning Thanks for great sitting!”

About: Had dogs all my life and trained and rehabilitated my 15 year old border collie. Recently said good bye to both family dogs. Experience with puppies, senior dogs, unique dog medical needs, and nervous dispositions. I work full time from home, can offer daily dog walks, very active family life on the weekend. Dogs can come along for any and all the adventures where appropriate. Biking, hiking, beach plays, trail runs. Back yard not fenced, very friendly German Shepard shares the yard. Steps away from the beach so many strolls for sniffs and pee breaks. One very excited toddler to pet and play. Has learned to be gentle with dogs.
“Aparna and Chief combine to make a great experience for our dog who has pretty high anxiety. He actually is excited to run through the front gate to greet them both. Thank you for the excellent service Aparna!”

“Amber did a fabulous job taking care of Ranger. She was calm and thoughtful with our exuberant young husky. Communication with Amber was easy and she sent lots of photos to keep us up to date. I am pretty sure Ranger looked back over his shoulder as we walked back to the car at the end of the day. I would recommend Amber and will call on her again.”

“Janine took good care of Darla while I went to go check out the Tulip Festival. Took her on a walk to the beach and ensured she was quite entertained. Janine also frequently sent photo updates and quite responsive when I asked how Darla was doing. ☺️ Highly recommend getting her as a dog sitter.”

“We were so lucky to find Christine for our Aussie . Maya came home happy and tired from nature walks and playing. Christine's professional and caring approach made it easy for us . Would definitely come again”

“Super happy with how everything went with Brittany and our large breed dog. She was very accommodating to our schedule and sent pictures of our pup throughout the day to set our minds at ease. Our dog came back from Brittany’s house and promptly had a long nap - she was very content and seemed well taken care of. 10 out of 10”

About: I have been a dog owner for over 15 years! Many of my friends and family members have me watch their pets when they are away, especially since my dog Bucky and I are always out and about. I have had a ton of experience with a wide range of dogs, all with different levels of discipline. My pets have ranged from small breeds like a chihuahua to a larger breed like a boarder collie. I usually walk my dogs in many different areas around the city. Regardless of your pups needs, I will be able to take them on a nice adventure through the neighbourhood, going at the pace that is best suited for their physical abilities! Please note that Bucky will always join us on our adventures, but he loves everyone! I am in school doing a flexible part time program so I have lots of availability to hangout with your dog. I do work part time but this varies each week. We will play enrichment games, play with toys, the dogs can tussle in the park, or go on a sniff-ahari. Whatever works best for your dog, we will incorporate into our time together
“I could tell the moment I met Ocean that she is a true dog person. She immediately knelt down to Bingo's level, gave him lots of affection, and let him come to her at his own pace. It was obvious how much she genuinely loves dogs. When I picked Bingo up, he was happily exhausted from all his adventures and had even learned a new skill! Ocean kept me updated with the cutest photos and was always quick to respond, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. I would happily trust her with Bingo again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive sitter.”

“Yasmine was great! She understood the needs of our sometimes challenging senior dog and gave him just what he needed. He usually is quite fearful of new experiences but bonded with her right away. A true dog woman! We highly recommend her!”

“Our boy Alpine absolutely loved Lizzie and her boy Copper! Alpine spent 2 full days with Lizzie in her home and he went on multiple adventures and came home happy & tired both days. Lizzie truly loves dogs and we highly recommend her dog care services!”

About: Over 12 years of experience with dogs and cats: training, walking, feeding, and loving care. Reliable, attentive, and passionate about every pet’s unique individual needs. I work online from home so am free to take care of your pups all day long. Late pick up and early drop offs are welcome by request. Dogs stay comfortably in my home, couch time included! They’ll have fresh water and meals (provided by their owner) throughout their stay. Treats and poop bags are always on hand. Pups can enjoy a home-like environment with qualified supervision. The front yard is fully fenced for play time and potty breaks.
About: I have taken care of animals as small as cats and Shih Tzus all the way up to Irish Wolfhounds and horses! No animal is too big or small! (Excluding boarding since I can’t exactly bring a horse into my apartment haha) I am currently working part time so I can likely find time to fit in the pup. I am quite flexible and the animals come first! At my home the puppers would have 2-3 walks per day and potty breaks every 2-4 hours depending on the pup! I have multiple great trails within walking distance and a plethora more within a short drive!
About: Kelly grew up in a household who’s mom’s part time job was a dog sitter/ boarder so 10 years of living at home in my adulthood taught me a lot! I’ve taken care of most breeds of dogs and have lots of experience taking care of them, meeting their needs and training if needed. My uncle and grandfather are also both veterinarians so volunteering at their clinic growing up taught me a lot and is nice to have them as an emergency contact for any questions. Ian grew up in a household of dogs his whole life, having breeds including Tibetan terrier, labs and retrievers. In adolescence he started a dog walking part time job with his friends and loves being around animals. Kelly is a casual employee as a nurse so is able to schedule her shifts herself. Ian is an ecologist and is often able to coordinate working from home - so there will always be someone home when we are taking care of your doggo. We view animals as part of the family and that’s how we treat them. We now live in Cumberland and love taking care of your dogs whenever we can. We live on a 0.3acre greatly fenced property and love having extra friends around to take on adventures or play fetch and be cozy at home. Kelly is a registered nurse in a casual position and is able to create her own schedule around sitting dogs/ has lots of free time. Ian works from home so is always around to be with your dog/ take breaks to go on walks! We would treat your home just as we would ours. We are both mature professionals currently living in a pet-friendly apartment in a safe neighbourhood.
About: I have been walking dogs and pet sitting since I was 10 years old. I will be your dog's best friend whether it's for a daily or weekly walk or a weekend sleepover. I have raised two dogs from 8 weeks old that are impeccably obedient. I have cared for senior dogs, dogs with medical or dietary restrictions, small and big. I am here to cater to their favorite activities whether it be walking swimming or trail walks we are up for it all. I am a free lance bookkeeper and accountant that works from home. My day is scheduled around my animals and yours. Depending on the day I incorporate multiple dog walks and outdoor time throughout the day. I care for pets as if they are my own by maintaining all obedience rules of the family first. If obedience or crate training isn't a priority of yours then I can help to provide good habits that your pet can take home with them.

“I was feeling a little worried about how Milo would react going out without me and very pleasantly surprised that he didn’t act up. Just a bit resistant but went along. Bailey is calm and talks in a nice tone to Milo. He didn’t have cause for alarm because of everything being low key and matter of fact. I’m very impressed with Bailey. He’s a very personable young man. I’m having him come tomorrow as well. I think Milo will soon really look forward to going out with Bailey.”

“I definitely recommend Alexia to look after your pet - she is responsive, attentive, super considerate and kind. Her prior experience with reactive dogs was evident and she took great care of my dog Luke, who's a large anxious rescue with some big feelings!”

“I would highly recommend Fiona to any pet parents as your pet sitter. She’s a responsible person. She gives you feedback every time. I’ve used rover more than 50 times, I can tell that Fiona is my dog’s favorite sitter above all other sitters she ever met. My dog would quickly running to my door and wagging her little tail waiting to be picked up by Fiona the second she heard Fiona’s footsteps. She’s just so happy. That never happened to her before with other dog sitters. The bond between my dog and Fiona is amazing. I never told Fiona how much I appreciate her love and patience to my dog because I’m not a girl who’s good at socializing and expressing myself. But the truth is that I can always trust Fiona with my dog because I know she’s in good hands. The smile on my dogs face melted my heart. I truly appreciate it. Thank you Fiona!”

“Amelia is very professional, reliable, and kind. I have a very sensitive and at times anxious pup, and Amelia took the time to come meet him prior so we knew it was the right fit. Amelia is extremely patient and positive with my dog and I would 💯 recommend her services :)”

I have a flexible schedule right now, and might be available last minute if you need it, so pls don't be afraid to ask :) I will ensure you doggo or kitty is comfortable with me. I will spoil them with affection, and scritches and scratches. I will play with them, ensure they have eliminated their bladder and bowels, I will ensure they show me their toys and teach me how to play with them. Most importantly, I will ensure they are safe at all times, including when I leave, with access to water. I am great at following instructions for feeding pets, or providing medication, and following any and all instructions and tips for specific dog care routines.

About: I have been a dog owner for over 15 years! Many of my friends and family members have me watch their pets when they are away, especially since my dog Bucky and I are always out and about. I have had a ton of experience with a wide range of dogs, all with different levels of discipline. My pets have ranged from small breeds like a chihuahua to a larger breed like a boarder collie. I usually walk my dogs in many different areas around the city. Regardless of your pups needs, I will be able to take them on a nice adventure through the neighbourhood, going at the pace that is best suited for their physical abilities! Please note that Bucky will always join us on our adventures, but he loves everyone! I am in school doing a flexible part time program so I have lots of availability to hangout with your dog. I do work part time but this varies each week. We will play enrichment games, play with toys, the dogs can tussle in the park, or go on a sniff-ahari. Whatever works best for your dog, we will incorporate into our time together
