“Sabrina was friendly and responsive to any questions, sent many pics and positive feedback about my dog. She even washed her bedsheets. Cobi had a small bloody swelling on his left side that I think is a tick bite. I should have asked her to check often for ticks,as they are becoming more common every year. We will know for next time.”

“Megan was absolutely fantastic. She treated our two French bulldogs like her own. They received so much love and attention while we were away. She updated us daily and made us feel so at ease leaving our dogs with her. While we were away Doug had two seizures and Megan handled them like a true professional. She contacted our emergency contact and was able to follow the vets orders and increase his medication making sure he was safe and comfortable. Having her watch our dogs while we were away was absolutely invaluable and it provided us with ease knowing our dogs were well cared for. We returned to a clean home and two happy dogs! We will absolutely be using her services again and recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter. Thank you Megan!!!”

“Katryna did a fantastic job housesitting my dog Bailey for 4 days. She communicated well and provided daily updates and pictures and went above and beyond to keep Bailey on her regular schedule. It was such a relief to know Bailey was in such good hands with Katryna and I wouldn't hesitate to book her again. I came home to a happy pup and a clean home.”

“Hayley provided a 4 day in-house dog sitting service for our two labrador retrievers - Duke & Jenny. Everything was excellent and we highly recommend her service. She was attentive to the special medical, dietary, and excercise needs of our senior dog Duke, and playful and energetic with our young dog Jenny, In addition to her great care of our pets, we came home from a trip to a nice and tidy house : ) We definitely look forward to having Haley stay again, and we could tell from the consistent updates and photos that our dogs will certainly look forward to spending time with her again too.”

“This was our first time leaving our dogs with someone other than family. From our first meet and greet to her stay Cindy was amazing. She asked questions, allowed the dogs space to approach h her on their own time and left me feeling like I could confidently go away and not worry. Cindy sent us lots of updates and was able to navigate any hiccups with ease. We will be rebooking with her and would highly recommend Cindy to care for your pets while you are away.”

“Exceeded Expectations! 110% Recommend!! Celia is the best of best. True professional. We needed to be away for a whole weekend and could not bring our dogs with us - 2yr old American Bulldog & 13yr old Argentinian Doggo. This is our first time ever leaving our girls alone and we were pretty anxious about the whole process. The meet and greet was exactly what we needed to ease our mind and set expectations. She asked alot of very good questions while answering all of ours. Celia is very compassionate and accommodating. Quinn (13yr) often needs to be let out in the backyard in the middle of the night and Celia stayed in our spare room for those late night woofs. ❤️ She was very respectful of our home and tidyed up after herself. Celia sent us several pictures and provided updates which really allowed us to enjoy ourselves knowing they were in the best of care. Came home to tired girls and clean house. This has been the greatest experience and we will be returning clients. Piper and Quinn miss you! Sincerely, Roxy & Kit”

About: I have taken care of dogs on multiple occasions, both one and two dogs at a time. I loved going on walks with them, (even during Canadian winter temps!), and playing together at home and the dog park was lots of fun! I have spent much time around the dogs of my friends and family members and would love to spend time taking care of your small or medium sized pup. I am comfortable with feeding, walking and any other dog care chores required for the well-being of your doggie! I currently work in a casual position at the hospital, and therefore have several days off throughout the week where I would be able to spend entire days with your dog or cat! On days that I do work, I am happy to visit/live-in with your pet(s) outside of my work hours. My schedule is flexible however, so please let me know what your preferences are. When I have cared for pets in the past, the owners have always provided me with anything I need for the dogs/cats, including food, toys, leashes, doggie bags, litterbox supplies, and of course, treats. I feel comfortable caring for your pets using anything they are familiar with on a normal basis so that it does not interrupt their routine too much. I also like to keep in touch with the owners throughout my time taking care of their pets, sending pictures and updates whenever possible.

“Lisa is incredible! This was our first time using a service for our dog, so it was a difficult decision to have some new watch our do, and spend the time doing it from our home. While Lisa stayed at our home, we agreed for her to bring her dog as well, who played with ours all the time and is such a good boy. So kind, easy going, friendly and playful. She took our dog for walks, drives, to see Christmas lights, to her animal sanctuary, all with advance permission of course. She communicates all the time, sent pictures, videos and comments about the fun he is having, keeping me always in the loop. When we arrived home, our house was in perfect condition. I actually wondered if it was cleaner then we had left it! :) I highly recommend Lisa, without a doubt. She is so kind, friendly, and so lovely. We will definitely be hiring her again and plan on hopefully setting up play dates with her dog and ours as well. Thank you so very much Lisa!”

About: Do you struggle to keep up with all the walks, feeding times, potty breaks, and even poop management? If that sounds like you, there’s no shame in asking for help, and I’d love to have a hand in your dog’s care. Hi! I’m Jakob, your friendly neighbourhood doggy care person and poop-picker-upper... My dog handling experience lies in dog training, bathing, walking, and sitting. I’ve learned to always approach my client’s dogs with a calm demeanour and patience, so I can meet them where they’re at. Every dog is different, and that’s why I cater to your specific dog’s needs in every booking. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else, so my promise is simple: I'll treat your dog like my own. I currently provide dog walking, house visits (feeding, potty breaks, enrichment activities) and overnight dog sitting. I offer one free 20 minute intake visit to each of my new clients. Let’s set something up 🐾 I only work part-time in my “day job”, so I still have plenty of time to walk dogs! Reach out and let’s book a time 🐾 I walk one dog at a time and give them my full attention so I can adjust each walk to their needs. I read body language carefully, avoid unsafe situations, and always share honest updates and photos. I meet every single dog with patience, respect, and consistency.

About: I’ve always grown up with animals in the house. I believe they truly make a house a home. I love both dogs and cats and connect very quickly with both. My partner and I also have 2 fish tanks so I can handle those as well! I have experience house sitting for both friends and family, as well as short notice when strangers need. I know that pet care is a full time job. I have a lot of spare time right now so I am looking to fill that over the winter with spending time outside with dogs and house sitting when needed as well. Comfort is my top priority. Keeping the animals in routine is very important to keep stress levels to a minimum. whether that means keeping to an area they know well or maintaining a feeding schedule or anything else i am happy to keep those routines up.

“Both Sila and Sertan were very nice. They came to my house on time. Made the effort to build a relationship with Maria (cat). They were very nice to send us updates of her with them to ensure that they were looking after her. Did not leave her alone. Followed instructions. They were very responsible and respectful at all times. We had to book last minute due to a last minute rescue mission and they went above and beyond to ensure we were at peace and get to meet us virtually late at night. HIGHLY recommend. We would love to book them again.”

About: I am a huge animal lover and I have had small animals, cats and dogs my whole life. I love to be outdoors and get exercise. I currently have one dog and a busy enough life to not have more animals, but enough time to care or support other animals on and off with walks, care and bordering. I have the energy to run and/or walk with dogs in the nice trails or area around my home. I have a small off leash area up the road, quiet street and Bruce pit near by. I love cats but can't have them in the house so are happy to go to your home and look after yours. Happy to care for small animals as well. Happy to chat and see if I can be of service to you and your animal. *Dogs must be on a good flea and tick meds I am near woods.* It can be flexible and can change sometimes so I would keep my calendar up to date and communicate well with you :). Willing to chat about drop offs and picks up. When I care for someone’s animal i want them to feel relaxed and calm that there pet is safe, loved and considered. So I want to work with you so you feel like that to :). I will listen carefully to your needs, routines and your animals personality and work with you to provide the service that fits you and your pet.

Tamara was so wonderful with our three male, Siamese cats that I wish we had more places to go so she could come hang out with them—it was almost like they spent a weekend with their favourite aunt doing all their favourite things. To be honest, we feel that the star-rating review system doesn't offer a public-facing feedback scale that captures our experience working with Tamara—so, I have created my own.

Lori took such good care of our 4 month old puppy! I was very nervous to leave her for the first time, and Lori made me feel so comfortable. She sent so many updates with lots of pictures. We came home to a very happy puppy and a clean home. Lori is also extremely friendly. I highly recommend Lori for anyone needing house sitting 😊

I was away for 9 days and I felt at ease knowing my dog Jack was in great hands with Alyssa. She kept me up to date with how Jack was doing, walked him, and she loved the cuddles as I can tell from the pics she sent me. Alyssa stayed in my home during that time and it was well taken care of until I got home. I would definitely have Alyssa back to take care of Jack and highly recommend her to anyone for sure.

FAQs for House Sitting - Bells Corners

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Bells Corners is $59 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $43 and $83 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 851 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across the city of Bells Corners. About 86% typically respond to requests within 60 minutes.

Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Bells Corners maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Bells Corners walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

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 Bells Corners 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!

You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, a background check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.

If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.

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.

Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, your payment method is charged at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.

If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.

For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
