“Nova stayed with Tawnya and Jeremy for an extended weekend while I was away. She took great care of Nova, asking me at times about her behavior if something seemed off and was very communicative during our pickup and drop off times. Nova seemed to have enjoyed her weekend with their family and I'd book again with them in the future.”
“Baloo had a wonderful time, I could tell right away that he would be taken care of and have some friends. Jackie is as sweet as pie, sent me pictures and gave me the opportunity to not worry about him whilst away.”
“Joanne was awesome. She sent pics and videos throughout the week and Crosby has been exhausted since he got home. I would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.”
“Lisa was great! She made our dog feel so relaxed and cared for. She took steps to make him feel at home and comfortable. Lisa sent picture regularly of Berkley playing and smiling. I’m pretty sure he wishes he lived there all the time because he spend the first 2 days back at home moping. That’s a sign of great care!!”
“After a meet and greet walk I felt comfortable that Jeffrey & Janine would take good care of Ozzy while we went away on a small trip. They asked a lot of detailed questions regarding his care prior to us leaving him. During our trip we got amazing detailed updates on Ozzy and wonderful pictures as well. They played his favorite game of fetch with him and took him on daily walks. They sent a video of him playing with their dog too. Ozzy looked like he was loved and well taken care of. We would not hesitate to use their services again for future bookings and you shouldn't either! You will not be disappointed. Thanks again Jeffrey & Janine for looking after our fur ball!”
“I would like to thank them as they did a wonderful job taking care of my lovely cat Piku and recommend them. I received daily updates with photos and messages. Thank you Pierre and Sheila.”
“Thank you, JC, for being so professional and taking such good care of our Zion! Even at the last minute, you welcomed us with open arms — we truly appreciate!!! We’ll definitely see you again❤️❤️”
“Tet was absolutely amazing with our high-energy Poodle, Okja, during our 5-night trip to Mexico! She truly went above and beyond, keeping Okja entertained with her favorite toys and making sure she got plenty of long walks and fun trips to the park. We loved receiving daily updates with photos and videos, which completely put our minds at ease and allowed us to fully enjoy our vacation. To make things even better, our return flight landed very late at night, and Tet was kind and accommodating enough to drop Okja off at our place right on time. We were so grateful for her flexibility! You could really tell Okja had the best time with her by the way they said goodbye. We are so thankful for Tet’s care, dedication, and thoughtfulness. Whenever we go on vacation next, she will absolutely be our number one choice!”
“Yulina was great with my little Daisy . She was incredibly patient, kind, and attentive. She sent me regular updates with photos and videos, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Daisy absolutely loved her and was so happy and relaxed when I got back. You can tell she truly loves and understands dogs — I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“Kate and Peter took amazing care of my corgis Luna and Cusco!! They were really sweet, caring and very responsive, sending me lots of pictures of my pups which was so appreciated and gave me huge peace of mind! This was my first time using Rover and I’m so glad I went with Peter and Kate, they made my pups feel welcomed and comfortable during their 3 week stay. In all the pictures Kate sent me Luna and Cusco looked so happy and like they were enjoying playing with Kate’s pups. My pups already miss Sushi and Sashimi:) I would 100% recommend Peter and Kate and would definitely book with them again!”
“Sonya was an outstanding dog sitter! Our dog came back to us so happy and was excited to go back for a second time, as we were so satisfied with Sonya's service we requested her twice in the same weekend. Sonya was very accommodating to changes in our schedule and we would highly recommend her. She also has other dogs at her place that allowed our dog to get some energy out and socialize. Thank you for everything, Sonya! We look forward to our next visit and seeing you again soon!”
“Isabel is amazing! We left our dog with her for the weekend and she took incredible care of him. This was my first time using Rover and I wasn't sure what to expect, but Isabel put my mind at ease. He came home extremely happy and tired from all the exercise. She was fantastic and texting me updates and sending plenty of photos so I could see how he was doing, and she was great at following any and all of the instructions I gave her. I plan on using her for any dog-sitting we need in the future!”
“Mariana have me updates throughout Koda’s stay with her, and made him feel very comfortable and settled quickly! Would definitely trust her to take great care of my dog again :)”
“Great love and care for our dogs Rosco and Skye. I felt 100% confident with leaving my dogs with her. Kourtney was more than willing to accommodate all our dogs needs during our time away. She was quick to respond to messages and it was so nice to get updates. I’ll be using Kourtney again - she was awesome.”
“We could not have had better sitters for our sweet Frankie-Bear. We only had the pleasure of meeting Dane and Toby at drop-off and pick-up, but it was clear he was loved by everyone caring for him for the time he was there. Next time we’re in need of a sitter they are the first ones we’re booking. Dane is so warm and kind, and Toby so gentle, mild-mannered, and sweet; just such a wonderful experience overall knowing that our boy was in the best of hands. Highly recommend!”

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Carstairs 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 Carstairs
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
