About: I grew up with both cats and dogs and was trusted to take care of them when needed. I currently volunteer at a rescue where dogs and cats of all ages are looked after. I fulfilled my training in dog behaviour and sanitization protocols. I work full time but have the flexibility to work remote if owners are in need of a sitter during the week day and of course the weekend! I’ve handled dogs and all ages, with varying anxiety levels. Your furry friend will be safe in my care and we will have lots of enrichment activities!

“Gillian was nothing short of amazing! She watched my Leo and he took to her right away. Her updates were great and put me at ease while I was gone! I ended up extending my vacation and she didn’t hesitate to modify and extend our booking. Will definitely book her again. Highly recommended!”

About: Your pet will always receive my full attention. I specialize in one-on-one care to ensure a calm, safe, and personalized experience every time. I have several years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I previously had two dogs and currently have a friendly cat at home, so I understand different pet personalities and needs. Over the years, I’ve also been involved in rescuing stray cats and dogs, which has given me strong hands-on experience and a calm, patient approach when caring for animals. I focus on providing a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed during their stay or walks. All of my services are provided one-on-one to ensure every pet gets the care, attention, and companionship they deserve. I only take a limited number of pets at a time to maintain high quality, personalized care. I have a flexible and reliable schedule, which allows me to provide attentive supervision and consistent care throughout the day to ensure pets feel comfortable and well cared for. I live in a clean, modern high-rise apartment downtown with a calm and quiet environment. My home is safe and pet-friendly, and pets are always supervised and cared for in a calm environment. I can follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, rest time, and crate use if requested by the owner.
“Johanna took such good care of our senior kitty Hudson. She took the time to play with him and engage him. Her reviews were lovely and the place was left spotless. Will definitely rebook with Johanna!”
“Jennah took good care of my cat while I was away and kept me updated with daily messages and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. It was obvious that my cat was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly appreciate the kindness, reliability, and attention given to my cat, great expo over all , I will definitely book her again!.”

“Contacted Bri at the last minute when my cat sitting plans fell through over the holidays. She was responsive, went out of her way to facilitate a meet and greet at a surely inconvenient hour for her, and sent me regular updates throughout. I will definitely be reaching out to her again next time I travel. Thanks again for taking wonderful care of Gladys!”

“Cassandra was so great and allowed me to relax and enjoy my time away while I knew my pet was being taken care of. All of the photo’s she sent were much appreciated, I 100% plan on rebooking with her in the future!”

“Kaela took such good care of my cat while I was away. She provided a lengthy update and amazing pictures of him every day that she looked after him. Definitely would recommend Kaela to look after your pets while you’re away!”
“Tamara was incredible with our two cats. She went above and beyond, bringing her own cat toys to play with our pets. She provided lots of pictures from her drop in and had great attention to detail with our requests!”

About: I have had large and small dogs in my life. Centrally located with a few parks by my house. I have experience with different harness, coats, putting boots and socks on. Happy to do it all so your dog is comfortable. I’ve moving from another province, and therefore have all the time to make this my number one priority. I do not have another employment at the moment. I do one to two hours of exercise in the morning- my late afternoons to evenings are free to provide help! When I drop by your home I would first ensure all the basic needs are met for your dog, whether you’d prefer if I just stop in for a quick moment while you’re at work, or if you’d like me ensure they get groomed. I will respect all boundaries put into place from the pet owner and never overstep. At the moment I am not offering boarding services.

“Dawn was so great and our cat loved her! She sent lots of pictures and videos during her visits and we could tell our cat adored her. She took him for little outdoor leash walks, gave him his food, and lots of pets and cuddles! We would definitely have her look after our cat again in the future!”

“I made a last minute booking with Kateryna for drop-in visits with my shy cat and everything went great. The little guy warmed up to her immediately and Kateryna took great care of him, kept me updated, and made sure everything was handled smoothly while I was away. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for kitty and felt completely at ease the whole time. I would absolutely rebook and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter.”

“Shiloh was fantastic with our 2 cats while we were on vacation. She even got our tortie to come out from under the bed which never happens! She went above my expectations and we would happily book her again!”

“Rebecca did a wonderful job overlooking our kitty Mew Mew and our home. She is very caring and thoughtful throughout the whole experience and is very easy to instruct and work with. Thank you so much for keeping him well entertained and loved while we were gone for over 2 weeks.”

“Olivia dropped in on our cats while we were camping. Her communication before and during the stays was great! She sent me some pictures and made me feel at ease knowing someone was watching them 😊 I would highly recommend Olivia to anyone looking for someone to care for their fur babies. Thanks Olivia!”

About: Growing up, I've always been surrounded by pets. My mom used to plonk me and Candy, my adorable French Poodle, into the same playpen. Candy wasn't just a pet; she was like my first best buddy. Then came Kina, our sweet Golden Retriever. Even at 10 years old, I took on the job of looking after her – walks, baths, food, the works. When she got older and needed surgeries, I was there for her, giving meds, cleaning wounds, and just showering her with love till the end. After Kina, Waffle came along. She was just a month old when I got her, which made socializing a bit tricky. But Waffle's been a real eye-opener. Through all the training sessions, I've learned that the key to a happy pup is consistency, patience, and loads of love. From Candy to Kina to Waffle, each furry friend has taught me heaps about compassion, responsibility, and being a rock-solid caregiver. They've been my teachers in life's best lessons, and I'm forever grateful for that. Now, alongside Waffle, I've got Mylo, this adorable and playful Westie who hit it off with Waffle right away. It's like having double the fun! And sometimes, I get the chance to look after my best friend's dog, Nala. Let me tell you, having three dogs around me makes me feel like the luckiest person in the world. It's a whole pack of love and joy, and I wouldn't trade it for anything. Every time I take care of a pet, my heart just swells with love for them. It's like the more I give, the more I have to give. So, right now, I'd love to extend that care to your furry ones too. I assure you, their well-being would be my top priority. There's nothing I wouldn't do to make sure they're happy, healthy, and feeling loved. With my remote job, I have the flexibility to control my own schedule, which means I can easily make time to play, go for walks, and shower love on my furry friends. All I need to do is grab my computer, and I'm good to go, whether it's at home or on the move. I always prioritize a calm, positive, and safe experience for every dog in my care. When possible, I like to meet dogs outside first so they can interact in a neutral environment with my own dog. We start with a short 5–10 minute walk together, which helps the dogs get comfortable, recognize each other as part of the same group, and build trust in a relaxed way. Once at home, I closely supervise the dogs while allowing them freedom to move around the house so they feel comfortable and at ease. I pay close attention to their body language, energy levels, and needs, making sure they feel safe, secure, and cared for at all times.

We had a wonderful experience with Daeun! She was reliable, caring, and kept us updated while we were away. We loved receiving her photos and updates, and it gave us such peace of mind knowing our cat was in great hands. We would absolutely recommend Daeun and would happily have her sit for us again!

Thanks so much Josie! You have a great way with cats! Our very shy one who hides came out to say hi :) Your communication was so quick and excellent. I highly recommend Josie to care for your pets - she is super reliable, very experienced and you can tell she loves animals!

Dawn was so great and our cat loved her! She sent lots of pictures and videos during her visits and we could tell our cat adored her. She took him for little outdoor leash walks, gave him his food, and lots of pets and cuddles! We would definitely have her look after our cat again in the future!

Erika was amazing with Raj while I was away! She made sure he was fed, spent time hanging out with him every visit, and always sent me pictures, which I really appreciated. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was getting love and attention. It’s very obvious she’s been doing this for a long time. She’s kind, professional, reliable, and you can genuinely tell she loves animals. I’ll 100% be booking Erika again for both Raj and my Golden Retriever, Pixie, in the future. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for an awesome pet sitter!

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
