About: I grew up on a farm basically so I am used to being around all kinds of animals of all sizes! I have experience pet sitting dogs with anxiety/separation issues, dogs with mobility issues, dogs that need medication & I don’t scare easily. I am currently open for the summer trying to find jobs to stay busy! I am a SMU alumni who is attending grad school in the fall :) I am able to do whatever your preferences are for you and your pet! Having a new person around can be quite intimidating for your pet so I want to respect their boundaries and make sure they are not only well taken care of, but also feel safe with me
“Andrea has looked after our boys several times now and every time we know they are in the best hands! She always updates us and sends us lots of photos which we appreciate so much! Will absolutely be coming back to her when we travel again!”
About: First‑time clients — message me for discounted walks :) I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and small critters my entire life. Growing up, I was always the one walking, cleaning, and looking after our family pets. My love for animals led me to study wildlife and become a trained Wildlife Technician, giving me hands‑on experience with animal behavior, safety, and care. Availability • I work in Brantford Monday–Friday, 8:30–4:30 • Available for walks and drop‑in visits before 8 AM, after 4:30 PM, and a 30‑minute check‑in at lunch • Weekend availability varies and can be booked in advance As a Wildlife Technician, I can administer medications — needles included — and keep accurate records for your peace of mind. Your pet is truly precious cargo, and I treat them with the same care and attention I give my own. I have a senior dog and cat that includes walking, bathing, cleaning kitty little, administering meds, general love and care. I will work arpund your schedule in the morning, evenings and weekends, outside of my 8:30-4:30 work schedule. I am a loving, confident, organized pet caretaker. I keep a good schedule, have a calm demeanour and ensure your pets and home are protected, clean and loved.
About: Hi! I’m Laura, and I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for well over 10 years. I’ve cared for my own pets as well as family, friends’, and neighbours’ animals, and I’ve had experience with a wide variety of dog breeds and personalities, including small breeds, large guardian breeds and high-energy herding breeds. I'm the type to occasionally and very casually (and safely) cross the street to ask if I can pet your dog. I’m responsible, active, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’d love to help keep your pets happy and comfortable at home, out on a walk, or just by checking in. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m a mature student in a hybrid program, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend a lot of time with the pets in my care. I’m happy to follow your routines and instructions closely, and I understand that caring for your home is part of the responsibility too. I’ll treat your space with the same care and respect I give your animals. House sitting is my favourite way to care for pets because I know how much easier it can be for them to stay in their own home and follow their usual routine while their people are away. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that means an energetic walk, plenty of fetch or playtime, a quiet companion for a shy cat, or simply keeping an older dog comfortable and settled.
“Britt is extremely patient and gracious. My dog is not the most easygoing and Britt came by twice before I needed her just so that my dog would be comfortable when she came by without me being home. She listened and respected my preferences, and my dog’s preferences. It was really important to me that my dog was familiar and comfortable with Britt, as she isn’t with many people. Britt was absolutely wonderful and I would highly recommend her!”
“Sarah was great and very personable. I was a little worried that my shy cat wouldn’t welcome her but boy was I wrong, he absolutely loved it. Will definitely book again in the future.”
“Meg was a great cat sitter for my two. Went away for a week and had her stop by 2 times daily to feed and give water, also asked to scoop cat litter 2 times throughout the week but she did that every day which was amazing and I'm sure the cats appreciated it! She managed to get to know my cats who are shy of visitors and I felt good knowing she was there, and having someone to keep an eye on the house is never bad. I would choose Meg again in the future for sure”
“Euna responded immediately and had no hesitation about caring for my senior high needs boxer dog who needs to be picked up to be taken outside. She was quick with her response time and always cheerful and polite in her communication. She went out of her way to go to my mothers house to care for Lexi and showed up exactly at the specified times. I could not be more grateful. I would highly recommend Euna to anyone!”
“we needed someone to look after our dog at our home for 1 hr, while my wife had some medical exams, and our dog loved his time with Camryn. I would recommend her to take care of your dog. She has easy, quiet mood that somehow calm dogs haha.”
“Casey, was outstanding!!! On time, sent pictures, great communication, litter boxes were cleaned, water full as well as food when we arrived home. To our surprise, our shy cat out of the three went to her. Would definitely recommend!!!!”

Kristina is a fantastic sitter for my cat. She’s always so thorough in her reports, sends lots of pictures, and is 100% dependable. She took the time to be sure she’d be able to give my diabetic boy his insulin properly, and always ensures every piece of his care is perfectly looked after while I am away; I hate leaving him but Kristina helps me feel confident and secure in his care. I’d highly recommend Kristina, and will keep booking with her!
Sherry was wonderful. We had a meet and greet 2 days before we needed her to insure that she and Kira were a good fit and I was able to provider her with the information she need. Sherry arrived on time for her visit and provided pictures of Kira when she arrived and some pictures on their walk as well. I will be more than happy to have Sherry look after Kira again. Thank you so much Sherry!
Robin was absolutely fantastic! This was my first time leaving Casey alone, and she kept me informed with daily photos and detailed updates. She ensured Casey had food, scooped the litter box daily, and added some play time. I highly recommend Robin and will definitely be booking again!
Nayya took such good care of my "lads". She took them outside, played with them, and gave them treats, in addition to regular feeding and litter box cleaning. My cats responded to Nayya in such a positive manner, which is a testament to her love of pets. Nayya left me detailed reports each day, which included several pictures. I have booked Nayya twice and would not hesitate to book her services again!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 1,622 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Brantford. About 86% of Brantford 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 Brantford 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 Brantford 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.
