“Cadence did an awesome job of checking up on my cats while I was away! She sent pictures of her visits and spent lots of time playing with them! Highly recommend her for her sitting services!”
“Cassie was super communicative, easy to work with, and great with my cats. She was even able to extend her visits when my flight back got delayed. It’s such a comfort to know my kitties are well taken care of when I’m away. Thank you so much, Cassie!”
“Vitoria was amazing with our two dogs, she kept us informed and we were so happy with her taking them for walks. We will definitely be reaching out again to Vitoria for dog sitting and walking!”
“Brittany was great! She scheduled a time to meet my cats with me there and get to know their routine. Then, she sent me pictures of them while I was away, which put me at ease.”
About: Transform your life with the power of pets! As someone who has overcome a difficult childhood through the comfort of furry friends, I am passionate about sharing the therapeutic benefits of animals. With a lifetime of experience caring for a diverse range of pets, from cats and dogs to exotic creatures like snakes and lizards, I promise to treat your beloved pets like my own. Whatever your fur babies need, we do our absolute best to accommodate to make their stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. I understand that some dogs have more energy than others, so we use a baby gate if needed to give everyone a breather so your little loved ones don't get stressed out. We have a high-energy husky that we trained (one of the harder breeds to train), and he is such a good boy. Everyone said potty training him would take 2-4 weeks, and we accomplished it in 7 days by taking him out every 2 hours even during the night. Alarms were set, and out he went. No more puppy pads or accidents in the house at 11 weeks old. If your fur baby is a puppy in need of extra walks for that reason, we are more than happy to help with that. We are able to section off a piece of our living room or kitchen to give senior dogs their own space if needed. Cuddle bugs are always welcome. They will get all the cuddles plus some extra 😊. We do have one set of stairs to our apartment, but if your senior dogs need assistance, I can carry them up and down the stairs; it's not a problem. As well as the administration of any meds they may need. We just need a medication schedule, and away we go. We have a huge park right behind our house for lots of playtime. If you have a high-energy pup I guarantee they will get the stimulation they need. And again, if you have senior dogs that are more laid back, we are set up to make sure everyone is in a comfortable, stress-free environment. We promise to provide the best care and daily updates of your fur babies. They will receive all the love and attention they get at home with you. You can rest assured they are happy and safe. As a pet parent myself, I understand the importance of finding a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter. That's why I've made it my full-time job to provide top-notch care for your pets, giving you peace of mind while you're away. One or both of us are home all day, so your pet will not be left alone for any period of time. In our home, they will have constant supervision. Please experience serenity with your furry friend complete with an inspiring dog and cat-friendly canine companion for ultimate comfort. Accommodation for all pets is our #1 priority, whether it be at your residence or ours. I always like to get down on the ground with your fur babies when I meet them, as this establishes trust. Establishing trust is very important to having a successful stay. We understand all pets have different needs; because there are 2 of us, we strive to provide a stress-free environment for your babies and ensure that your beloved pets will not be left alone for any amount of time.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life, from playful pups to independent cats, so I know every personality is different—and I love them all. My own pets are spoiled (and yes, they know it), and I bring that same care, attention, and affection to every animal I watch. I make sure each visit is safe, fun, and tailored to your pet’s needs—whether that means a long walk, extra playtime, or just some cozy snuggles. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s quirks and creating a routine that makes them feel happy, comfortable, and loved. I work from home and have a flexible schedule to accommodate drop in visits, dog walking, and doggy (or kitty!) day care in your home or mine I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness, and I’m flexible to meet their specific needs and routines. I have a spacious, open property for walks and playtime, and my energetic 65 lbs dog loves making new friends—perfect for playdates if your dog enjoys company.
About: 👋 Hi! I’m Taylor. With a heart full of love for furry friends and a commitment to their well-being, I'm here to make tails wag. 🐶 Ever since I can remember, I've been surrounded by the unconditional love and companionship of a dog. From long walks to snuggling on the couch, I love every moment I spend with my furry bestie, Lila. 🚶♂️ Whether your dog needs a leisurely stroll, a brisk jog, or simply a bit of playtime in the park, I tailor each walk to their individual needs and preferences. 🤝 Trust and reliability are at the core of my service. When your beloved pet is in my care, you can rest assured they're receiving the utmost attention, affection, and respect. I treat each furry client as if they were my own, forging bonds built on trust, communication, and plenty of belly rubs! 🌟 Whether you're seeking regular walks, occasional outings, or specialized care, I'm here to ensure your four-legged family member receives the love and attention they deserve. 🐾 Ready to hit the pavement? Let's connect and make tails wag together! Right now I can offer the following services: Weekday walks at 6AM or evening walks at 6PM Drop in visits twice a week (I work from home two days a week) I can bring treats, toys and anything else your pet would love. I'm happy to take them outside for some exercise or stay in for some cuddles. My goal is to make them feel cared for and loved while you are out.
About: I was the owner and operator of a dog walking and cat sitting business in Stittsville from 2017-2020. I have experience handling dogs of all sizes and personalities. I am a dog mom myself and have 2 border collies of my own at home. I look forward to meeting you! I was working in the corporate world the last few years but due to some changes am now looking into getting back into the pet care industry - I am currently available for dog walking and drop in visits Monday through Friday as well as some weekends! See my calendar for my current availability :) I offer drop in visits in your home for both dogs and cats but am always willing to follow any instructions you need to make both you and your pets comfortable.
“Victoria is amazing ! My cat is usually timid but Victoria found a way to make her feel comfortable. She sent me updates after each drop in visits which I really appreciated !”
About: I'm 22, I've had animals my entire existence including reptiles. I live on 4 acres of mostly fenced in yard for your babies to run around. I'm flexible on anything you need for your babies. (And I can babysit your reptiles) I currently have no job but I'm looking for a part-time so I can continue to focus on meeting all sorts of new animals that need somewhere to snooze and play. I have a mostly fenced yard, three doggos that are super friendly to everything. I have experience with vet medicine and crate training. I have LOTS of safe dog toys that need to be played with.
About: My name is Tamara and I would love the pleasure to look after your dog when you're in need! I've had my own small dog for 14 years now, as well as a 1 year old large dog, and a kitten; so I know all of the love and work that goes into taking care of our little friends. I also have experience caring for farm animals (goats, sheep, and chickens)! My house is within walking distance of a vet and pet supplies, as well as right next to a long trail that is behind my backyard that your dog is sure to love! Since I have a dog myself, your friend will be doing everything with mine, so even if I'm away for an hour or so, they won't ever be by themselves! I'm able to follow any routine that you need and I'll make sure that you're furry friend feels as at home as possible. I work full time as a teacher (8-3), so I'm home pretty early every day. My pets are home while I'm gone, so your furry friend will never be alone. I leave puzzles and enrichment toys for them while I'm gone, and I even have a pet camera so that I can check in on them too. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me! I have a pet camera that you can tune into as well (while I'm gone), if that's something you'd be interested in. I will treat your furry friend just like I would my own; with love, care, and patience!
About: Generally, I have grown up surrounded by different animals, including dogs. I used to take our family dog for walks around the block and outside with him a lot. I live with other family who have two medium sized dogs. I talked to them and give them hugs every day and they make me laugh. During the week, my availability varies with more availability on weekends where I am able to dedicate more time to spend with your fur babies. At home, I live with two dogs. They are not my dogs specifically but I will let them outside to let them run around and/or do their business and sometimes I will sit outside with them on the porch and just relax. I am also active in my daily life as I exercise at home and go for long walks everyday down the trail. I like to absorb the nature around me on my walks. It's also a good stress reliever. When I watched over dogs in the past for family members, I would take them for walks, feed them, let them outside, and spend time with them in the house.
“Taylor did a great job dropping in to look after my cats over a couple of days. Being able to pay special attention to each of their behaviours and needs is much appreciated. I'm sure we'll become a repeat client!”
“Jenna was amazing with our two Frenchies! We got regular updates and photos, and could tell they were so well loved while we were away. Came home to happy, relaxed pups — highly recommend!”
About: About Kaitlyn I always had dogs growing up. I was employed at a dog daycare & boarding facility for 3 years and love being around dogs and creating a safe space for them to grow and learn! I am currently working full time throughout the months of April-November. During lay off season with work I do have a part time job during the week but willing do walk after work. 5:30 pm-7:00pm :) I am a firm believer in real emotional connection with dogs, just like people. Affection and creative play are my favourite activities, and on walks l aspire to create a comfortable environment to exercise and do their business. I'm not a professional dog trainer, but know the basic knowledge and skills for a nice, easy, and enjoyable walk!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Carleton Place
Cadence was wonderful with our cats. They loved her from the moment they met her. She went the extra mile when she was concerned about something. She was responsive and made sure we were comfortable with her being in our house. We will certainly hire her again!
Jasmine is extremely friendly, got along great with my cat and took really good care of her. She gave her lots of pets, played with her and took care of my cat like she was her own and was respectful with my space and sent numerous photos and updates. I was able to focus on my trip without any worry and would highly recommend her anytime for your furry family member.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Carleton Place on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 1,016 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Carleton Place. About 86% of Carleton Place 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 Carleton Place 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 Carleton Place 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.
