Was a pleasure meeting Pam and having her care for our dogs was the best decision. They were so comfortable with her right away. She took wonderful care of them and our home. My dogs have a new best friend. Not sure if they even minded we were gone. We will definitely choose Pam to care for our fur babies in the future without hesitation.

About: Hey there! I have owned dogs since I was 8 and have had the pleasure of working at a dog daycare for about a year. No matter the size or breed they will feel loved while you guys are away. I always make sure to share pictures when we’re on walks or playtime as well as those funny poses that they do while they sleep! I am only available for drop in visits, if you need overnight stay in your home please contact me as I am sometimes available for certain days! If you have any questions or concerns please reach out right away and I will definitely get back to you as soon as I see the message! I am a part time receptionist who works from 11-7 Tuesdays/Thursdays some weeks. I will be available any other day for drop in visits, please let me know if you have any questions about this. How I would care for your pet in your home or even drop in visits will vary depending on how your schedule is like with your animal. Walks in the morning and as soon as I am back from work as well as any type of routine you normally do when you are home with them! I want nothing but the best for your time away and one way I can help is by making sure you’re not stressing or worrying about them!

Darlene is great at what she does. She has taken care of our home and pets twice now, and we love her. She updates us as needed. She takes care of the place and leaves no foot print. We are so lucky too have known her, and will continue to hire her services. Our dogs love her.

Robin was great! She did 3 pre-visits (we booked her a month and a half in advance). She stayed in our home for almost three weeks. Gave us almost daily updates with pictures. Our two fur babies were calm and relaxed when we came home. The house was left clean and in order. Will be using her again when we go away!

Lyra was, without a doubt, the most skilled, patient and friendly dog sitter (and trainer!!!) we have EVER had. Our dogs adored her, and she went above and beyond to train our new rescue dog, working on his fears, barking and leash pulling. I didn’t worry once about either dog, we were updated frequently with pics and training progress, and we came home to HAPPY, brushed dogs and a spotlessly clean house. I can’t recommend Lyra enough!!! Amazing.

About: Hi! My name is Sam 🙋‍♀️I've had cats, days old bottle fed rescue kittens and multiple kittens litters, gerbils, and even a chinchilla growing up. Now I have a 9 year old 80lb American Bully, Odin, and almost 7 year old cat, Mittens. I also am currently doing daily potty breaks for two puppies, one being a senior dog for a couple who live in my parents neighborhood. My dog Odin is very high anxiety with many allergies and a skin condition. So I can understand the stress of making sure you are leaving your family members in the right care. I am highly compassionate and live by taking care and supporting people, animals and things that can be seen as vunerable or easily taken advantage of. I took a step back from my full-time job to be able to help my mom with some complicated medical issues she is dealing with. After working with these two puppies during the day and my love for my animals, I thought this may be the perfect opportunity to turn a hobby (animal loving) into a more full time job. Me, as a person, am very responsible, respectful, easy going, quiet, and empathetic. I have many hobbies like gardening, skiing, painting, camping, baking and golfing. My family of 2 step boys and Fiancé are all active and enjoy being outside. I am a certified nail technician aswell but mostly only do family and friends. I am currently helping my mom with general home care taking and errands. The hours a very flexible so I am able to work about your schedule! I love to go on walks so if allowed I could take them out for an evening walk or car ride. Play games in the backyard. Watch a movie together and cuddle up. Give them their favorite approved treats and tell them how much of a good boy they are haha

Brooke was absolutely wonderful with our pets, I could tell she loved them and they loved her. As a concerned "parent to my babies" I had reservations about leaving Millie and Ella with someone as they are only a year old and I haven't been away from them much. My husband and I also work from home so our pets are really never alone. Brooke stayed in our home, listened to our concerns, read all our directions, reported to us daily and was very professional and caring. First time using Rover and Brooke, I give them both 5 stars.

You'll also receive regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. A bit about me ..... I am a animal health tech as a well as a mama to both two dogs and human babies ! My heart always has a place for caring for animals !! I do work full time but weekends I'm always free !

We booked Jasmine to house sit our pup Lenny while we were on holidays for a week. Jasmine was very professional during the booking process, very kind during our initial meet and greet and provided regular updates with pictures throughout our time away. I felt confident that Lenny was in good hands while we were away, which was reassuring. She left the house in great condition as well! Would recommend Jasmine and will use her for future bookings!

Kyla was so good to our babies! We have a very anxious German Shepard mix and another rescue dog that can be quite a handful sometimes and she was so good with them! She provided very good updates each day with cute pictures for us to see. Kyla even let us know that one of the dogs had an excitement pee when she arrived and she wanted to clean it up asap so it didn’t stain. Our house was left so clean and our babies seem to have had a very good weekend with her! We will definitely rebook with her again!

About: Whilst growing up i've always had a dog in my life to take care of weather its walking, dog sitting or caring. My LOVE for dogs will always be a big part of my life. I'm currently working at home whilst my wife is on maternity leave which gives us an incredible amount of free time to be able to look after your pets. I have a fenced yard plenty of room for them to play, i can also provide a couple of dog treats and some dog toys if they're aloud. I also live next to a very large dog park which is very convenient when it comes to taking them to stretch there legs.

About: Pets have been a huge part of the family since before I was born. As the oldest cousin, I've been the designated pet/babysitter since I was 10! Most recently, I've been raising a rescue named Pretzel. She's a high energy, two month old puppy! I've been training her to ring a bell when she needs to go outside, and she has picked it up so quick! As an actor, I work part time and attend rehearsals. I can always accomodate specific walk/meal times, and I'm free to spend nights anywhere needed in the city. I always carry treats with me to make sure your little one feels safe. I make it a priority to walk and play with your pets so they always feel great! I'm also reliable when it comes to pets with special needs or who need to take medications.

With over 7 years of experience caring for my own pets as well as my neighbours’ dogs and cats, I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm routine, I ensure they receive personalized attention, regular exercise, and plenty of affection. I also have experience caring for puppies who need extra patience and consistency, as well as senior pets who require gentle, specialized care. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals, making it easy for me to provide consistent care, walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I prioritize each pet’s needs and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while in my care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. Whether caring for pets in my client’s home or during walks and visits, I follow their regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions.

This was our first experience using Rover and I was so happy Jessica was available to help us out. She stayed at our place and watched over our senior dog for 6 nights and they got along really well. She was friendly, clean and always very quick to respond to my messages. We even got pictures sent to us while we were away which was a nice way to keep in touch. I will definitely be reaching out to her again when we go away! Thanks Jessica!

About: Hello! My name is Alex and I would love to look after your pup! I have two dogs and a cat. Roscoe is 10, Coach is 3 and Jojo my cat is 3. All of them are friendly and we ensure that all animals are safe. I work from home full time so I am able to always be around to monitor your pup! Roscoe is very easy going with a great temperament that gets along with all different breeds of dogs. Coach is a typical lab--loves to run and is high energy. He loves to play with other pups so hopefully your dog is okay with that! We live in a house with a fenced backyard! Plenty of room for your pup to run around :) I have had a dog in my life since I was 15 years old, and I am very versed with all different breeds and temperaments. I believe in providing a warm, loving household that makes a dog feel at ease! I promise to treat your dog with the same love and respect as I treat my own :) I currently work from home, so I am home all of the time. I usually take the dogs out to the backyard multiple times a day, especially if it's gorgeous out, to throw the ball with them or bask in the sun. Jojo, my cat, has a catio, so she's often watching everyone outside, too! I live with my partner and our two dogs and cat. My partner also loves pets so he also is here to administer pets and food! We just love all animals so we will treat your dog the way we treat our own!

I carefully follow your instructions, provide regular updates with photos, and treat every pet with kindness and respect. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, playtime, brushing, litter box cleaning, and providing companionship. If your pet requires oral medication, I’m happy to administer it according to your instructions. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or simply enjoys a quiet companion, I’ll adapt my care to meet their individual needs. My goal is to give you peace of mind while ensuring your pet feels loved, relaxed, and happy until you return home. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide daytime and overnight pet sitting, along with drop-in visits and dog walking. I carefully schedule each booking so I can give every pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. I believe pets are happiest in their own home, where they can stay in a familiar environment and keep their normal routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their daily schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning or potty breaks, and plenty of attention and companionship. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and adapt my care to their individual needs, whether they enjoy active play or prefer a calm, quiet companion. I also provide regular photo and message updates so owners can feel confident that their pets are safe and happy. While you’re away, I’m happy to help with small household tasks such as watering plants, bringing in the mail or packages, and keeping your home secure and tidy.

Sara came and spent the weekend caring for our 3 dogs and 2 cats. She sent us pet pictures several times. Our pets always seemed happy and relaxed. The house was tidy when we came home. Sara was also kind enough to deal with a repair person while she was at our home. We will definitely use her services again in the future.

About: With over a decade of dedicated experience, my journey as a dog lover began during my childhood, nurturing and caring for our furry companions like they were family. This deep-rooted connection instilled in me a profound understanding of the unique needs and unconditional love that dogs bring into our lives. With me, your furry companion isn't just in good hands – they're in loving paws that understand the language of loyalty and companionship. Let's make your dog's stay an unforgettable experience, full of play, comfort, and a whole lot of tail-wagging happiness Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine as an integral part of my life. Mornings start with cheerful walks and play sessions, setting the tone for an active day ahead. During the day, I ensure regular potty breaks, engaging activities, and ample cuddle time. Structured mealtimes are a priority, accommodating dietary needs and preferences. In the evenings, leisurely walks allow for exploration and relaxation. Nighttime routines include cozy rest areas and soothing rituals for a peaceful sleep. In my home, where I offer dog day care services, your furry friend becomes an honorary member of my family. From the moment they step through the door, they're greeted with a warm welcome and a safe, inviting space tailored to their needs. Structured routines ensure that they receive the attention, exercise, and mental stimulation they crave. Play sessions in our securely fenced yard allow for spirited romps, while indoor areas are filled with toys, cozy spots, and water stations for comfort and hydration.

FAQs for House Sitting - Calmar

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Calmar on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 600 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Calmar. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Calmar maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Calmar walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

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 Calmar 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!

You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, identity check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.

If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.

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.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
