“Very communicative before and during the stay. My skittish dog who doesn't like anyone, especially men, warmed up to Manuel in record time. Very patient and gentle with the dogs.”
“Amazing amazing amazing. Alison knew what she was doing. Ruby had a blast. She went above and beyond with our pup. Kind and warmhearted, and kept us informed of how Ruby was doing. I would recommend her to anyone. She was great!!!”
“Happy to have Amy look after Dexter while we were away. She did an amazing job watching him and sent us many pictures and updates during the stay which was nice. Would highly recommend Amy to care for your pet 🐾”
“Chetan was an amazing sitter for Wilson over the weekend! He went above and beyond, not only did he give Wilson a bath, but he also happily extended for an extra day on my last-minute request. His communication was excellent throughout: very responsive, sent me lots of pictures, and kept me updated so I had peace of mind. He was also very accommodating with any requests I had, which made the whole experience even smoother. Wilson came home happy, clean, and clearly well cared for. I would highly recommend Chetan to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter, and I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“Catherine and her husband Natz were awesome pet sitters. Lots of pictures during Reba ‘s weekend stay. They welcomed Reba like their own pet. Such wonderful people! I will use again for sure if I travel to Brantford area and need a pet sitter again. If you are looking for a great pet sitter, contact Catherine. ❤️?”
“Buddy had an amazing week in Justine and Inna’s care. He received great care and his complex health needs were covered. If you are looking for a loving home for your fur baby to visit this is the one!!!! I highly recommend 😊”
“Colleen was super easy and professional to communicate with. It was our pups first time with her so the environment was new. That combined with some unexpected fireworks made for some anxious babies. Colleen changed her sleeping arrangements to accommodate them and make them feel safe so everyone could sleep. I was very comfortable and happy that Murph and Eddie stayed with Colleen.”
“Sreeparvathi and Vysakh were truly exceptional caregivers for our Goldendoodle during our 10-day trip. From our initial meet-and-greet to the day we picked him up, they were warm, welcoming, and professional. Their genuine hospitality and dedication to our dog’s well being were evident from the start. They went above and beyond to ensure he felt comfortable and safe, providing consistent love, attention, and care. He was fed on schedule, enjoyed plenty of playtime and walks, and had a wonderful time exploring their spacious backyard. They kept him well groomed and tidy throughout his stay. We especially appreciated the daily updates, complete with photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was happy and thriving under their care. We are deeply grateful for the kindness, reliability, and one-on-one attention Sreeparvathi and Vysakh provided. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking a loving, trustworthy dog sitter and we will absolutely book with them again.”

When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment.

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your routines closely so your pet feels comfortable and stress-free.

I keep your home tidy, respect your space, and send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Our dog Copper had an excellent stay with Andrea after having a terrible experience with a local boarding place. Andrea was amazing! We recieved regular updates and pictures/videos throughout His stay and ge returned happy as can be and very tired from all his excitement and walks. We will definetly board again with Andrea for future trips!”
“Jessica is a fantastic sitter. She really cares for my dog and spoils her. I'm pretty sure my dog loves her more than me 😂 and that's the highest compliment I can give.”
“Georgia just spent 2 nights with Britt and Steve, and I couldn’t recommend them enough. Britt was so great with putting me at ease as a first time Rover user. She sent me the cutest updates/photos/videos and I was never worried about Georgia’s wellbeing. Georgia came home so happy and tired from all of the fun and I can just tell she was so well loved and cared for while I was away. I will definitely re-book!!”
“Mike's as great as his reputation! Highly recommended. He understands dog behaviour really well, he figured out signals my dog was giving him to go outside without my explaining it beforehand. True dog guy!”
About: I’ve lived with pets my entire life, and have seen all kinds of personalities and needs. I’m always attentive of individual pet needs and treat them like my own. I work full time 8-4 and currently often go away on weekends from Friday-Sunday. Otherwise I’m home the whole time after work to give lots of attention. I can also go home during lunch if ever needed. I’ve recently moved into a new home and have an empty basement at the moment which won’t be furnished for a few more months. Your cat can have their own very large space there with a bedroom included for them. Dogs can enjoy the whole house with me if they are friendly with my cat, and enjoy plenty of space in my large fenced backyard.
“Thank you so much for taking good care of our Simba. He was so happy staying with you and seemed so comfortable in your home. We will book again for sure! Thanks again”
“Mathieu and Esther were great! Huck seemed like he had a great time. From the minute we dropped him off to when we picked him up, Huck looked happy. Huck had great company with their dog Marlow. The two of them got a long well. We received pictures from them of Huck having fun. It was our first time using Rover and we were nervous, but would definitely use Mathew, Esther and Marlow again!”

Andrea is amazing! I will admit I was nervous about leaving my fur kids with somebody who wasn’t a family member but Andrea certainly took that fear away. The boys had a wonderful time. Andrea sent me pictures and updates throughout their stay. I can’t praise Andrea enough she was outstanding with our fur kids. I will definitely be rebooking and definitely recommend her you won’t be disappointed. Can’t thank her enough. Very Happy!!!!!
Sree and vysakh have been amazing. They have looked after our baby so nicely. I can tell from the way my little one behaves how someone has treated him. He looked so happy and so well behaved! He was happy to go again. Thanks so much and you can trust them blindly with your furry baby
We booked Molly for an 8-day stay with Britt while we were away on a cruise. She kept us updated all during the trip with photos and texts so we knew how Molly was doing which was a comfort to us. She provided excellent care for Molly. Molly loved all the walks and spending time with Mona. We would definitely recommend Britt for caring for your pet.
We had the absolute best experience with Taylor! From the moment we connected, I felt completely at ease leaving Leo in her care. She was attentive, responsible, and truly treated him like her own. Leo can be a little curious and loves to explore (classic beagle!), but Taylor was incredibly careful and made sure he was always safe and secure. She also took him on long walks and set up lots of fun playdates — he came back happy, tired, and wagging his tail nonstop! I really appreciated the regular updates, photos, and messages — it gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It’s such a relief to find someone you can fully trust with your pet. We will definitely be booking with Taylor again! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and amazing sitter!
Highly recommend Shivangini & Parth! I’ve had great experiences with Shivangini and Parth in the past, and once again they went above and beyond in taking care of my dog, Buddy. After an unfortunate situation with another sitter, they stepped in and made a stressful experience much easier. They kindly helped with picking Buddy up from Kitchener, even though they live in Brantford, which I truly appreciated. Buddy was well cared for, comfortable, and happy during his stay. They are reliable, compassionate, and genuinely care about the pets they look after. I’m very grateful for their help and would highly recommend Shivangini & Parth to anyone looking for trustworthy and experienced pet sitters.
Jessica is amazing she and her mom are so warm and kind stepping into their home I too instantly felt at home. My baby was with her for over a week and each day I would get thoughtful updates and pictures (all of which my baby was smiling in) he had all the play time in the world in Jessica's HUGE backyard and he even slept in her bed with her at night. I will be returning to her each and every time now!

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Brantford 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 Brantford
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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. On Rover:
- 80% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
