“Taylor was great - friendly, responsive and accommodating. Finn enjoyed spending a day at her home and was well taken care of. Will be the first person I look for next time we need help with Finn. Thanks again, Taylor!”
“Erin was awesome! She tired our pup out really well and everything went really good! She sent lots of updates and photos and I’m sure our puppy got way more activity then he usually does! Will definetly use again!”
“This was Teddy’s first daycare with Mellissa. She took great care of our anxious senior dog. Teddy got lots of playtime with Mellissa and was able to calm down and hang out with her and Jasper. Thank you so much! We look forward to book more stays with her.”
“Justyne was amazing with my dog Toffee. Toffee tends to be quite nervous meeting new people and in new environments but was made to feel so welcome from the moment we walked through the door! We also appreciated the regular updates throughout the stay. Highly recommend and we will definitely be using Justyne’s services again. Thank you so much Justyne!”
About: My Aussie, Ava, is 5 years old and knows ~60+ commands. When looking after dogs that belong to friends/family they are treated the same as my Ava; that goes for training, obedience, walks, you name it! If there's a trick you want your dog to learn, I will do my best to help! I Love all animals although I am a dog person, through and through. My two cats, Polo & Pan, are incredible and loved equally. Can't wait to play fetch with your dog or scratch your cat behind the ears :) I'm off work for the time being, love animals and most of all, love being outside in nature breathing in the sweet fresh air! That being said, I am available all day Monday to Friday and most weekends. We can chat schedule and have a consistent time table My animals are my children. They receive the same love and care any human family member would be entitled to. I love them, treat them with respect, train them with enthusiasm and cuddle them each and every day. Animals are awesome, no!?
“Judith is such a warm and friendly person, who clearly has a natural ease with and passion for dogs. She took good care of Lenny during our work day. He had a couple of walks and a lot of playtime. We appreciated the photos and updates we received. Thanks Judith!”
“Amazing! She took good care of Pyper! Pyper was tired when she got home but not too tired to sniff around the new home we moved into. Thank you so much for taking care or our baby on such short notice!”
“We were drawn to Ashley’s for its country setting thinking it would be a great place for our energetic 9 month old puppy and we were not disappointed. Ashley agreed to a meet and greet the day before our booking to tour the grounds and meet 2 other dogs that would be there the next day. Ashley also sent us an update and pictures while walking the dogs. We knew we had made the right choice when our puppy returned to Ashley before jumping into our vehicle at pick-up time.”
“Such a great experience! Ana Laura and her partner are so calm and lovely. Our little dog was so relaxed after her stay, we know she was well taken care of. They were always quick to respond, great communication. Highly recommend these sitter's and our dog will definitely be back ? thank you so much!!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a child, and I’ve always been the go-to person for my family and friends. Walks, playtime, grooming, and cuddles are all part of my routine. I know how to recognize signs of stress and provide a comforting environment. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to be fully available for your pets. I take the time to play with, walk, and comfort each pet at their own pace. Their well-being is my top priority every day. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment, with a constant focus on safety. I respect each pet’s habits and adapt to their needs. Whether they’re shy or very sociable, they’ll be welcomed with kindness and patience
About: I have been honoured to be from a very animal Oriented family and have lived on a farm for most of my life. I have cared for and have given the best care and love to animals such as, Guinea pigs, cats, turtles, horses, dogs, and pretty much everything else you can imagine. I was born an animal lover and every animal becomes my family. I can identify special needs in any animal such as first aid, anxiety issues etc I work from home, so your pet has 24/7 attention. Be prepared for your loved one to get 3-4 walks a day along with an hour play time or a trip to the dog park daily! I have a fenced yard. My golden retriever is very patient and loves all types of dogs. If your dog is allowed on the couch or bed, well so is mine. I would rather your dog be able to cuddle and be comfy right beside me during the night to make them feel trust, and feel more comfortable in a strange environment. I am able to make every animal feel like home. Just ask my references … if your dog likes burger patties from McDonalds or pup cups from star bucks… I’m your girl… I am very experienced with highly reactive and aggressive dogs as well. Unfortunately, I do Have a dog of my own, but can manage very well as I am highly trained with aggressive dogs. I believe all dogs can be trained in a well loved and supportive environment once triggers are identified I spoil every animal like it’s my own! Great with puppies and super forgiving. We all make mistakes even if it’s our furniture!!! I have tons of training experience to make this not happen! I am fear based certified as I am a canine enrichment volunteer at the Ottawa Humane Society
“Our pup Nova has seperarion anxiety and it's been difficult for us to leave her anywhere for more than one day. We've tried other pet sitters and kennels and it would always break our hearts to see how stressed she would get. We're so fortunate to have found Debbie and Greg. We had a few trial daycare stays before a longer trip in the Fall and while Nova was initially nervous she was able to settle into their home after the first stay. I can't express enough how relieved we are to have found people that Nova feels comfortable with. We can finally go on vacation without having to stress. Debbie and Greg have a calmness about them that helps Nova deal with her anxiety of being without us. They have a calm home environment and a nice backyard that Nova enjoys during her stays. I would highly recommend especially for pup parents that may have a pup with some separation anxiety. Debbie and Greg are great for Nova and we'll be able to go on vacation knowing she's comfortable and being well cared for.”
“Exceptional sitter for our French Bulldog! He was welcomed and well cared for. We appreciate the updates during his stay. A wonderful experience and we look forward to future visits. Thank you!”
“Ginger just came back from her first visit with Jessica and Dozer. Jessica was great at making Ginger feel safe and secure in this new environment and giving her some love and cuddles. Jessica sent me a bunch of pictures which was awesome and reassuring to me. Dozer (her big dog) was also great at giving Ginger the space she needed when we first got there. I will definitely bring Ginger back to Jessica’s!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs through every stage of life, from puppies to seniors, and understand how their needs change over time. I’m patient with puppies, consistent with adult dogs’ routines, and gentle and attentive with senior dogs who may need extra care. I’m comfortable administering medications, including oral meds and injections, and I carefully follow all care and health instructions. I also have knowledge of canine CPR and stay calm and focused in emergency situations. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priority. I treat every dog as if they were my own, and I promise to give them love, attention, and care while you’re away. I have a very open schedule as I do make my own. I have a vehicle so this also makes it easy to commute to and from your home. I provide personalized care for your pets in the comfort of their own home. I follow their routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and quiet companionship, and I’m comfortable administering medications or injections if needed. I make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved, while keeping their home tidy and giving you peace of mind.
“I’m so lucky to have found Mihoko and Joshua to care for my pup. They treat him like their own dog. My dog was a bit nervous when he first went to them but they won him over almost immediately and he now rushes to greet them. He has a great time with them and their family including Night who’s become a bestie of his. He’s always happily tired and I feel at ease knowing that he’s being looked after the best people possible. Thank you so much!”
“Mina was amazing! This was my first time leaving Phoenix in someone else’s care outside of my family and Phoenix did so well, she was a bit shy at first but warmed up to her well. Thank you Mina ☺️”

Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Clarence-Rockland commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
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 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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in ON ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 88% 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.
