“As always our 16 year old pup was well taken care of and happy when we picked her up. We so appreciate Gabrielle’s calm and thoughtful way of managing all the dogs that come into her house.”
About: Took care of dogs of all kinds of breads for 33 years, assisted veterinarians and volunteered at animal shelters, dog groomer by trade over 10 years I'm available to take care of your dog 24/7, providing loving and nurturing atmosphere as I consider your dogs to be part of my family! I provide an individual approach to each dog based on their needs, taking them for walks to local parks, keeping them challenged both physically and mentally making sure that your dogs are given proper care that they need!
About: My first dog shared my crib with me and I have never been without a canine companion since! Currently I have two dogs - a completely bonkers Australian koolie and rescue dog I call the "house coyote". For the last 3 years we have travelled all around North America and Mexico in my little motorhome in search of the ultimate dog walk. I have worked and volunteered at vet offices and dog shelters and have yet to ever meet a dog I don't like. From the grumpy ones, to the frightened and the injured to the athlete - each dog is unique and it's my superpower to be able to recognize and harness what motivates him or her in order to bring as much satisfaction to their lives as I can. That I why I incorporate dog training disguised as games into my walks. I believe dogs need to exercise their brains as well as their bodies and your dog will return to you happy and fulfilled. Because I work freelance from my home office my schedule is my own to manage. this means Im free anytime. Getting out from behind the desk and into the fresh air is only ever a good thing! Rain,Snow or Shine I have the right footwear for anything. My dogs have a lot of freedom - but they have worked hard to earn it! I want to share my life with them so we started training from the day they arrived. I believe in awards based training and understanding the psychology of dogs, so we have a lot of mutual respect and patience for one another. Im proud to say I can take my guys anywhere and I do! that's not to say any of us are perfect but I provide security, exercise, boundaries, and games to keep us all a happy family. I offer the same approach to your pet(s)
About: I grew up training horses (show jumpers) and my love for animals big and small started early. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have rescued three of them, including my first rescue while volunteering at an animal shelter in Grande Prairie, Alberta. My dogs are my children, and I understand firsthand how much stress comes with finding someone you trust to care for your pups and love them the way you do. I’ve raised puppies, welcomed middle-aged rescues into my life, and supported senior dogs through their final chapter. My goal is simple: to care for your dogs as if they were my own and give you the same peace of mind I have knowing my kids are safe, happy, loved, and in good hands while I’m away. I work in emergency services on a rotating 24-hour shift calendar, with a total of seven shifts a month. I have several consecutive days off in-between those shifts, allowing me to cover a fairly expansive block of time throughout the week. Fortunately, I am provided with my work schedule well in advance. Which allows me to coordinate and confirm bookings around the needs of your pets. I’m an early riser to my home fitness routine, and take my kids on multiple walks a day. Having the opportunity to “work from home” and visit with other pets/families in the area would be a welcome addition to my routine! I provide a safe, loving environment tailored to each pet’s individual needs, routine, and comfort level. If your pup requires a more dynamic environment or has specific care instructions, I’m happy to review everything with you in person before accepting the responsibility. This helps ensure I fully understand your pet’s needs and can provide the care, consistency, and attention they deserve
“Tanya was very flexible and took great care of our dog for a few days on relatively short notice. Pictures were sent multiple times a day and it was very clear the pup was having tons of fun and being very well taken care of. Thanks again Tanya!”
“Alyssa was great with our dog! It was our first time leaving him that long and we felt very comfortable with the care she provided. She made our vacation worry-free. We wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and have experience with puppies and seniors, as well experience taking care of very sick doggos. I love the outdoors, and take my 3 dogs on trail walks all the time! I have a bachelors degree in Biology, I am currently in school to become a Veterinary Technician, and have dog/cat First Aid & CPR. I am currently taking courses to become a certified dog trainer :) I am currently in school to become a Veterinary Technician and work part-time. My availability most weeks is Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, any of time of day! I live in a rural area with a nice big yard (not fenced in). I have 3 friendly dogs, and 2 cats! I feed most of my pets twice a day, and can take them out for as many potty breaks as necessary. I have a crate and playpen if needed!
About: Hi, I’m Jess! I have 9.5 years of professional dog care experience, including daycares, structured on-leash group walks, off-leash park play, boarding, and housesitting. Raised on a farm, I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and share my home with two resident cats. I am incredibly comfortable with all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments, from puppies and seniors to special needs. I'm trained in dog reactivity, certified in Pet First Aid, and experienced in administering medications, shots, and flea treatments. I live in a large apartment and typically host a single dog, but I’m open to caring for multiples from the same family if they get along well (complete with a complimentary trial). I always prefer a meet-and-greet first to ensure a perfect fit! I am just a 5 minute walk from a beautiful, very large off-leash dog park that features both an enclosed area and an additional section for pups who need a bit more focused attention.As well as, Delhi Park, Macaulay Mountain or Millenium Trail for hikes. I would love to meet you and your furry friend. I'm available via text or email anytime, so please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions! I am in transition as I just moved back home from Toronto, to Picton. I have full availability, and very capable of meeting your needs to provide the best care. I live with cats, and only take a client at a time, unless further analysis has been done to see compatability. This is for the safety of your pets, and to be leaning on a cautious side.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your postal code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighbourhood.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Carrying Place 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 Carrying Place
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
