“This was our first time using Rover and we were delighted to find Kiko, who was a deeply caring and conscientious cat sitter to our two cats for a week. We received photos and detailed updates after each drop in visit, and we could tell that the cats not only got fed, but got lots of attention as well. Everything was well in order in our home when we returned. I am sure the cats were disappointed to see us and not Kiko coming through the door. Would 100% recommend Kiko's services - very professional, kind, organized, and communicative.”
“Vanessa has been absolutely wonderful with my seven month-old kitten, Momo! She is always punctual, professional, and incredibly friendly. From the very first visit, Momo was comfortable with her, and now he genuinely looks forward to her afternoon visits. She spends quality time playing with him, keeping him entertained, and giving him all the attention he needs while I’m at work. What I appreciate most is how reliable and caring she is. It’s such a relief knowing that Momo is in great hands and getting both companionship and care during the day. Vanessa clearly loves animals, and it shows in the way she interacts with him. He looks forward to seeing her! I highly recommend Vanessa to anyone looking for a dependable, kind, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of Momo!”
“She was fantastic with my pup and my sisters dog! We had to take a last minute day trip and she was available to stop by our place and walk our dogs 4x. She was responsive, attentive and very good with our dogs. Thank you!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I am always first to volunteer to take care of my friends and families dogs, and I love to do it! I have experience with training young dogs and taking care of senior dogs. I do work full time during the week, but I am available some mornings, in the evenings and on the weekends depending on what you need. At my home, we have a fully fenced backyard with lots of running space! I also have one dog myself who is very friendly, but can be kept separate if preferred.
“Randi was wonderful! She took great care of my cat Millie while we were away on vacation, and provided updates and photos daily. We felt assured that Millie was in good hands! We won’t hesitate to book her again.”
About: I have cared for dogs for 20 years, and for the past 10 years have been dog-mom to a special Blue Heeler/Husky. My dog was a very anxious and energetic soul, and I worked closely with trainers over many years to meet his needs and provide him the best home. I have worked with several specialized trainers and learned a lot about dog behaviour and needs. I am a very fit person, and have no trouble with taking dogs for long hikes or runs. I currently work-from-home, and have a lot of flexibility to care for pets. An important note is that I have a 5 year old at home as well, so any pets in my care at my house will need to be friendly with kids. I work from home, and have daytime and evening availability to care for pets. I also do a lot of volunteering in the community. Availability depends on what other responsibilities I have been booked in for in any given week. Advanced requests for care are best. My home has a fenced in backyard, and indoors there are baby gates that can keep pets off the stairs if needed. I have a crate in my home if needed. I am available to take dogs for walks from their homes within Kitchener-Waterloo-Cambridge.
“Kayleigh was on time and kept our kitties company while we were out of town. It was such a relief knowing that our babies were in such good capable hands. 10/10 will use again and will definitely recommend her to others! Thanks again Kayleigh!”
“Emma was great! She was available with very short notice and communicated throughout. I was in a bind and she saved the day. Highly recommend and will definitely use her in the future!”
“Melissa was clear and transparent about availability when making plans for her to drop in to care for our cat. She asked lots of questions and sent pictures with updates. She messaged us after we got home to make sure everything was ok. Our cat loved having her visit, thanks Melissa for caring for her like your own!”
About: I have 5+ years of hands on pet care experience and treat every dog like they were my own. I prioritize structure, consistency, and calm care, and I pay close attention to each dog’s needs, especially when they’re settling in. I love keeping dogs’ minds sharp with fun trick training and scent games, in addition to running around and playing outside. My beagle, Mylo, is very warm and friendly. If your dog is comfortable, Mylo will happily play and interact with them, and if they prefer to lounge, we’ll relax together. Your dog will have plenty of downtime, and all interactions are closely monitored so they feel safe and comfortable. They will never be left alone, and I’ll proactively communicate with you throughout their stay. I work from home, so I can give dogs plenty of attention. I take two long walks each day in the morning and evening, and have time during the day for short walks, play, and potty breaks. I provide a safe, loving environment with plenty of attention, structured walks, rest, and lots of in house play. While my yard is unfenced, I use a long leash with a stake so dogs can safely enjoy some backyard play if they like. My schedule is flexible, so I can adapt to each pet’s needs. I follow the same routine and instructions the owner provides, ensuring their pet’s comfort, exercise, meals, and supervision are consistent with their usual routine.
“Lynn did drop-in visits with our cat, Reggie, for a weekend and we were so happy with her care, patience and communication. She was great listening to Reggie's needs during the meet and greet and he was comfortable in her presence. Lynn was quick communicating after each visit and in-between. We haven't had a sitter successfully play with Reggie so when she sent photos of him showing off his hunting skills we knew he was enjoying the time with her which gave us overwhelming relief. We will definitely be contacting Lynn in the future!”

About: I take care of the elderly and there pets with walking/cleanings and in general good company. I love going for walks just as much as all the pets I've went on walks with and playing catch is a great excersize/past time. I have a part time job and looking to fill in the gaps with some well needed excersize and more income ofcourse. It also helps with networking and making friends while im out and about. When my new location is updated we will have our own fenced in environment not just for your fur baby but also our own in the home so that they can go outside and play while getting the company they need. There is also security cameras and a constant flow of water to help hydrate them during the hot days.
“Abby had a great visit with Ash! She came home happy, and it was nice knowing she was being so well looked after. You can tell Ashley really loves dogs. Will definitely book with her again!”
About: I've cared for cats, kittens, puppies and dogs of all sizes, even fish and lizards! I have cared for pets of all personality types, some with disabilities, medication needs, and dietary restrictions. No pet or amount of pets is too much for me to handle ! 😁 I work full time at Gators tail with a set Tuesday -Saturday schedule. With full availability on Sunday and Monday. My trusty assistant and girlfriend Jade works Monday-Friday and is always helpful in caring for pets as well! My lovely girlfriend Jade and I live in a 2 floor townhouse with our 2 year old black cat Loki. We have a cat tree on each floor and an absurd amount of cat toys and treats. We also have a spare room that can be dedicated to your pet so they can have their own personal space if they don't feel like sharing! We do not have a backyard but we are close to parks and trails in hespeler which are great for walks
About: What sets me apart is that I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I’m patient, reliable, and pay close attention to each dog’s individual personality, routine, and needs. I have experience caring for my own dog, so I understand how important it is to provide not only exercise and playtime but also comfort, consistency, and lots of affection. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different energy levels, administering basic medications if needed, and following specific feeding, walking, and care instructions. I also know how to recognize when a dog may be feeling stressed or unwell and will always communicate promptly with owners if I have any concerns. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Me and hubby take care of them, he Works from home Tuesdays and Thursday, and I am off on Fridays we both make sure they have attention and lots of playtime, I work 8min away from home so I drop in during the day. I have a fenced yard a lot of toys and a little yorkie to keep your furry friends entertained. I love to have breakfast/read outside to hang out with them.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Blair
Samantha G was outstanding. You know you have a wonderful pet carer when your pet is purring and rolling around for her but it particularly shows how great a job they did when your cat still loves you when you get home. Much thanks Sam. I'll definately use your service again.
Kiko is a gem. She took care of our cat for close to ten days and we were able to spend our trip stress free. Kiko was on time, was very good at reading what the cat expects and feed / play accordingly. Kiko shared photos and videos constantly which gave us peace of mind while away. Overall, Kiko was an ideal cat sitter and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Highly recommended
Thank you Clarissa for coming to my aid Saturday morning when I needed to book a last minute service to check in on our 3 dogs because our first rover had ended and our flight got cancelled Saturday. We got home late on Sunday night. I will definitely use her services again for regular walking and check ins. Hopefully no more emergencies and only planned visits. Thanks again.
Sierra was fantastic! As this was my first time using Rover, she was so patient, reassuring, and easy to communicate with, which I truly appreciated. Sierra took wonderful care of my cats, and I came home to happy, well-cared-for pets. I will be booking with Sierra again thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Many sitters respond to requests in under an hour. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once.
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.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Blair 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 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.
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.
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.
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.
