“Laura was so great! She took wonderful care of my little medical kitty, giving him his asthma inhaler and his eye drops. The written and photo updates were so thoughtfully done, will definitely book again!”
About: I am a first year student at the Atlantic Veterinary College here in Charlottetown. I am an animal lover so I always surrounded myself with animals from a very young age. I also love being outside and going for walks. I volunteered at a veterinary clinic all through high school and then worked in wildlife rehabilitation for the past 5 years. I am also a recent graduate from the University of Guelph with a Master of Wildlife Biology degree. Throughout my Master’s degree I spent a lot of time walking dogs on Rover and house sitting for friends that had pets. I myself have two dogs that I got as puppies, Skye and Luna. I recently moved to Charlottetown for school and, for the time being, unfortunately had to leave my fur babies with my parents in New Brunswick. I’m currently in school full time so my days are quite busy but I enjoy going out early in the mornings or after school in the evening to stay active and spend some time outside. Unfortunately, I will not be able to take any pets in my home. However I am willing to drive to parks, walking trails, etc. as I have a car. I am also able to crate your dog if needed!
About: I’ve owned both a Bichon Frise and a Labrador Retriever, and I often look after friends’ dogs, so I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I enjoy getting to know each dog and helping them feel comfortable in my home. I work from home full-time, which allows me to offer companionship and regular potty breaks throughout the day. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine and care instructions. I work full-time from home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I can take your dog outside for walks and potty breaks every 3–4 hours during the day, with time for play and companionship between work tasks. I’m happy to follow their usual feeding and walking schedule. My home is spacious and smoke-free, with no children or other pets currently living here. I have a large backyard on a property of approximately one acre, offering plenty of room for supervised outdoor time. Indoors, your dog will have lots of space to relax and move around. If your dog needs to avoid stairs, I can block off access to keep them on one level. I’ll follow your care instructions to help keep your pup safe and comfortable.
About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and other pets since I was 10. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed, train, and comfort pets of all types. I’m calm, patient, and great with animals that need a little extra emotional care. I’m familiar with dogs of different sizes and temperaments, and I’m a quick learner—whether it’s a new breed, species, or special routine, I’ll adapt fast and care with love. I’m currently on summer break and have a completely flexible schedule. I’m available most days and evenings for pet care, and I’m using this time to do something I genuinely love. If I wasn’t broke, I’d honestly still do this for the joy it brings me—because spending time with animals is one of the most healing and fulfilling things in my life. I currently offer drop-ins, walks, and house sitting, and I also welcome calm cats for short-term boarding in my bedroom. It’s a quiet, clean space where I can give full attention and comfort. As much as I love dogs, I don’t have the space to board them right now. I always follow care instructions, keep things hygienic, and make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and loved.
“Leaving a young puppy is never easy, but Cindy made us feel completely comfortable. She checked in on Axl during the day, let him out to pee, played with him, and gave him lots of attention and treats. Knowing she was coming by made the whole day so much less stressful for us. You can tell she genuinely loves animals, and Axl was so happy and comfortable with her and we will absolutely be booking with her again!”
About: I love dogs and cats and would love an excuse to get outside! I am comfortable taking dogs to Upton dog park and on any other adventures with my truck. I am free up until December (going on a trip to Australia) but can continue dog sitting until the spring since I work from home. I am not working up until December then I work from home until spring! Would love to have an excuse to go on more adventures and I am fairly flexible for the foreseeable future. I don’t have the capacity to care for an animal in my own home unfortunately. I also wouldn’t like to stress out a pet anymore than usual so I am happy to do drop-ins or stay in the home of the pet.
About: I have been pet sitting since I was a kid, and fostering animals since university! I am now a student at Atlantic Veterinary College and will be graduating in 2029. I have a background in small animal medicine as well as working with animals from shelters. I also worked at a pet supply store for a year. I am a student who has classes from 830-4pm most days with an hour lunch break. I am happy to bring your pets for walks in the morning, over my lunch, or in the evenings after school. If I am pet sitting I will be able to check in on them as well on this schedule. If your pet requires spending time in my home, I have 3 cats who are very friendly and have spent time with both other cats and dogs.
About: I have 7 years of experience working in veterinary clinics and am currently in vet school! I have taken care of all types of dogs and am comfortable with a wide range of dogs. I am able to administer medications, care for any age of pup and am trained in fear free practices. My schedule is very flexible and can be catered to what your needs are! I currently have a very open schedule and would be happy to fill my days with your pets! I provide dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, focusing on keeping pets comfortable and maintaining their usual routines. I ensure they are well-fed, exercised, and given plenty of attention, while also keeping homes secure and tidy during stays.
About: I am happy to adapt and adjust to the needs of your pet so they feel loved and comfortable. I had a very high maintenance mini bernadoodle Sadie for 15 years who required a lot of special care with many unique quirks. I am very patient with any needs, including giving medication. I have an account on trusted house sitters and have been trusted caring for many homes and pets in Canada and Australia throughout my travels. I am currently studying part time online so am home most of the day except for the off appointment requiring me to be out for an hour or 2. I don’t have any pets, there’s a trail near my home and I am happy to follow any accommodations that your pets require from me!

I currently have a 5-year-old dog and have participated in puppy training classes. My background includes walking and caring for many healthy dogs, as well as providing specialized care for senior pets. My hands-on experience and love for animals set me apart from other sitters. I’m available after 12PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays, as well as all day on every other day of the week. This schedule allows me to dedicate quality time to your pets while balancing my other commitments. In my home, I provide a safe and nurturing environment for pets.

Playtime and rest are essential parts of their routine, allowing them to feel comfortable and secure. If caring for pets in a client's home, I maintain their routines while prioritizing their safety and well-being.
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my lifelong passion for animals and my deep, personal connection with dogs. Growing up, I had two beloved pups who were my constant companions. Being away from them has only deepened my love for pets, inspiring me to channel that affection into caring for others' furry family members. In addition to personal pet care, I bring unique experience from my home country, where I actively cared for street dogs. I provided them with food, offered them shelter, and ensured they felt safe and loved. This hands-on involvement has given me well-rounded expertise in understanding dogs of all temperaments, backgrounds, and needs. Whether it’s showering dogs with love, ensuring their comfort, or managing unique care requirements, my diverse experience makes me uniquely qualified to care for your pet with the same dedication and compassion I’ve always given my own. Trust me to treat your pet as if they were my own! Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine as my studies are currently complete, and I’m working part-time. This flexibility allows me to dedicate ample time to providing exceptional care for pets. I’m mostly available in the afternoons and early evenings every day, making it easy to accommodate your pet’s needs and ensure they receive the attention and love they deserve. When caring for pets at my clients' homes, I prioritize creating a comfortable and familiar environment for them. I follow any specific instructions provided by the pet owner to maintain their routine, whether it’s feeding, playtime, or any special care requirements. As part of my service, I also offer dog walking, ensuring pets get the exercise and stimulation they need to stay happy and healthy. I make every walk enjoyable, safe, and tailored to the dog’s energy level and preferences. My goal is to provide attentive, reliable, and loving care while keeping pets relaxed and content in their own space.
About: I’ve been a dedicated dog owner for several years and currently share my home with two German Shorthaired Pointers, ages 7 and 4. Caring for high-energy dogs has given me extensive experience with daily walks, exercise, feeding routines, playtime, basic training reinforcement, and recognizing each dog’s unique personality and needs. I understand that every pet thrives on consistency, so I take the time to follow your routine and provide the same level of care and attention they’re used to at home. Whether it’s a walk to burn off energy, a drop-in visit for meals and companionship, or staying in your home while you’re away, I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and respect I give my own. As a full-time Health & Safety professional, I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and understand the importance of following instructions carefully. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I work full-time during the week, so I’m currently available for weekend dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting. On weekends, your pet will have my full attention, whether they need exercise, companionship, or care while you’re away. I’ll always communicate clearly, provide updates and photos, and follow your pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, especially while their family is away. When caring for your pet in your home, I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any special routines that help your pet feel comfortable. During drop-in visits and walks, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and bathroom breaks. I’ll also provide lots of affection (if they enjoy it!) and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’ll always treat your home with respect and care for your pets as if they were my own—making their safety, comfort, and happiness my top priorities.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Charlottetown is $27 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $39 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 56 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Charlottetown. About 83% of Charlottetown 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.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Charlottetown 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 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.
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.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, your payment method is charged at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
