“Victoria was kind, friendly and you can tell she truly loves animals. My dogs were thrilled to meet her and I wouldn’t hesitate trusting an animal in her care again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Bonnie looked after our 2 cats over the holidays this year. She was very responsive and easy to communicate with, and we got great updates and lots of pictures of our boys. This is our second time booking with Bonnie, and her level of care is exceptional. We would absolutely book with her again in the future. Thanks again Bonnie! :)”
“We always have peace of mind when we leave town and have Kirstan and Justin looking after our 3 cats. It’s obvious they’re animal lovers and very detail-oriented. Chill people, totally trustworthy.”
“Xjandria provided punctual and consistent visits with Leo, our Bengal. She sent cute pictures, played, and spent quality time with him. Leo was very content upon our return home. We will definitely trust our sweet Leo, and our home, with her again 💕”
About: Hi! My name is Karinne, but most people call me Kiwi (no, I am not from New Zealand!). I was born and raised in Ottawa, and now live in a house in Nepean with my partner and our 4-year old Miniature American Shepherd, Kali. We love being outside and being active, so your pet will get plenty of fresh air and exercise while being well-loved and well cared for. I started providing services on Rover in 2019 when we lived in an apartment building, but when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, my public health nursing job kept me busy and working long hours, so I had to take a break from Rover. Then we bought a house and got a puppy, and now that we are settled into our home and routines, I am excited to be back on Rover to support others and their pets! I grew up with a love of animals and pets (I literally still have two bins full of stuffed animals that I collected as a child and pretended I owned all the pets in the world). Even though I wasn't allowed to have my own dog as a child, I have always been surrounded by friends' and family's dogs my entire life, and I've often taken care of their pets during their vacations as if they were my own. My partner and I bought our first house and our first dog in the same year, and we've loved every minute of it! I am a Public Health Nurse and work most days from home, so my availability works around those days in-office (i.e. I won't book any walks, visits, or day care on days I am in the office). For any dog boarding, my partner works fully remote at home, so there is always someone in the house with the dogs even if I have to go into the office. We go on 3 walks a day with our dog Kali, ranging from 20 to 45 minutes depending on the time of day and weather. If it is storming, we often do enrichment or training indoors instead. On weekends we try to do longer adventures like a hike in Gatineau Park or swimming in the river! During our daily walks, our dog Kali walks very well on a leash and doesn't pull (until we get close to the neighbourhood park!). She is excellent at walking with other dogs, and generally just ignores them while walking. If your dog prefers to walk alone, that is not a problem! I can accommodate and leave our dog with my partner. Our house is a split-level home with a fully fenced backyard. Dogs will always be supervised while playing in the yard. During the day, Kali has free-range of the entire house and is allowed on furniture, but we are flexible and can accommodate different rules to meet your dog's needs. We also have different areas of the house that can be closed off if the dogs need a break from each other. Kali is crate-trained; she sleeps in her crate at night and eats all her meals in her crate. If we are caring for your dog in our house, we would do our best to ensure there is always someone home and stick to your dog's routines as much as possible.
“Joanna did a great job! She was on time each day, did everything we asked to keep our pups happy, and sent us adorable pics to show us how they were doing. Our pups missed us while we were gone, but not as much thanks to Joanna's great care. We'll ask her back again!”
“Sabrina was reliable and made friends with my elder cat. It was the first time I had left him for such a long time. She sent me daily reports, pictures and commentary on how he was doing. She seems to understand cat language. I would use her again.”
“Saranya gave my kitties lots of love and excellent care over the Christmas holidays! We couldn’t be happier and would definitely have her care for our fur babies another time!”
“Kaela is very reliable, and was available to take a last minute booking for us when a family emergency took us out of town. We will continue to have her look after our Reggie. 1000% recommend.”
About: Anyone who knows me knows I’m the biggest dog person! Whether I’m walking into someone’s house, seeing a dog out in public, or spending time with my own furry friend, dogs always make my day. I have an 8-year-old dog who’s my world, and I can’t imagine being outside without a dog by my side. I regularly walk a senior dog in my community, providing gentle, caring, and fun walks that keep them happy and active. I offer 30-minute or 1-hour walks depending on your dog’s needs and energy level. Every pup I meet gets my full attention, belly rubs, and lots of tail wags! I’m also training to run a 5K by the end of summer, so if your dog loves to run… even better! I am currently a university student with a very flexible schedule to take care of your furry baby! Please message me for any questions or inquiry about my availability! I treat every home and pet with the utmost care and respect. In clients’ homes, I follow their instructions closely, keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy. I make sure doors are securely closed, leashes are properly used, and pets are never left unattended in unsafe areas. In my own home, my 8-year-old dog keeps me company, and I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment. I always supervise pets, provide fresh water, and ensure they feel loved and comfortable. Clients can trust that their furry family members are in safe hands, with lots of attention, gentle care, and plenty of affection.
“Katryna is absolutely lovely to work with. My situation was a bit unique and she went out of her way to accommodate us. My girls absolutely love her. They are quite excitable but she is able to get them settled fairly quick. She definately knows what she is doing I will be a regular. Thank you.”
“Rebeca has been great with spending time with my cat Buffy! Despite my cat being a bit timid and reclusive, Rebeca was very patient and made a lot of efforts to engage with her and win her trust, and was enthusiastic with sharing her experience with me.”
“We scheduled an additional meet and greet with a walk so that our dog could get more familiar with Nicole. Nicole sent a reminder and was on time. She asked questions to get to better understand our nervous dog and was gentle and patient with her.”
About: We're in the process of opening a kennel on our 27 acre homestead, until then, we're here on Rover! Let us give your pets an enriching experience while you're away, and you peace of mind that they are in not one but two sets of good hands. Our dog Styx loves all pets, big and small, but we also have experience and infrastructure for some personal space if your pet takes a little longer to warm up or has special needs. We are currently building a kennel on our wooded retreat, and in the meantime, our home is open! We are home full-time and spend our days outside tending to the property, bringing your pets along, with lots of water and indoor breaks. We have a fenced yard and the house is able to be segmented off depending on the needs (puppy pen, cat area with dogs, cat area dog free, day crated, whatever your comfort is.
“Hayley did a great job with my shy snuggle-bug. I got regular notices, and in particular of him enjoying snuggle time which was the most important reasons for the visits. I was a little worried he would hide while she was here, but she knew the ways of the feline and he seemed quite comfortable with her. Everything looked great when I got home and my cat looked well-cared for. Thank you Hayley!”

Miaozi has taken care of our cat multiple times and done an excellent job! She is always on time and sends photo updates, and takes the time to play. She even took her time to refrigerate an unexpected package that arrived while we were away! She is polite and enthusiastic and we would recommend her. Hailey!
Alyssa is an absolute super star! She looked after our elderly kitty, making certain his physical needs were met. Not only that, but she took the time to treat him to his favourite thinks, cookies and lots of chin scratches! All of that, and she had to contend with horrendous weather conditions to see him daily. Thank you, Alyssa!

There are 1,468 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Bells Corners. About 83% of Bells Corners 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 Bells Corners 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 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!
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.
