About: I love all animals, whether I have cared for them before or they are new to me. I emphasize research into ever evolving pet care for all my animals and am always looking for ways to improve quality of life for them. I feed my cat and guinea pigs in the morning before work, make sure there's enough humidity in the gecko habitat before leaving for work. When I grt home from work I do all their clean up care and then feed the geckos and play with them. I spend about 45 minutes hanging out with my guinea pigs before bedtime and their night feeding. For the safety of my guinea pigs I won't be offering any pet sitting in my own space as they have a very large free area to roam
“Kevin is very friendly and easy to talk to, he was great with my dogs and they loved him, he stayed in my home over few nights and provided good care and company to them. I received daily updates, communication was great, he always available and quick to respond. Kevin followed all my instructions and made my travel easier by providing good care of my pets.”
“I can’t express how grateful I am mahnaz was available on such short notice and so accommodating of our dog Charlotte. Will absolutely be reaching out again for more dog sitting if she’s available! Thank you mahnaz!”

I’m Callie — a reliable, caring pet sitter based in Ottawa 🐾 I’ve always been someone that animals naturally feel comfortable around, and I genuinely love spending time with them—whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just keeping them company. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I always prioritize safety, communication, and making sure your pet feels comfortable and happy. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to follow any specific routines your pet needs. I’ll also send regular updates so you feel at ease while you’re away 🤍 Whether your pet needs a calm companion or someone active and playful, I adapt to their personality! Offering a flexible schedule and I love sending cute photo updates and making sure you feel connected while you’re away 💌 Spending time with animals is something I genuinely love, so pet care fits really naturally into my day. I keep a flexible schedule, which allows me to be fully present during walks and visits and give each pet the attention they deserve. I care deeply about making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I take time to get to know their routine and personality so I can create a calm and positive environment for them.

I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel reassured and connected while you’re away 🤍
About: With a lifetime of experience around large dogs, I’m confident caring for breeds of all sizes and temperaments. I prioritize safety, routine, exercise, and personalized attention so you can feel completely at ease while away. Doggy daycare/dog walking fits really naturally into my routine because I already have dedicated days off during the week and love staying active. I work full time, but on my available days I’m home and able to give dogs lots of attention, walks, playtime, and bathroom breaks throughout the day. Your pet will get lots of attention, walks, playtime, and love. I stick to their routine so they feel comfortable, but I also make sure they’re getting plenty of stimulation and not just sitting around bored. At my place, they’ve got a safe, relaxed space to hang out and settle in like they belong there. In a client’s home, I keep things consistent so they feel secure in their own environment.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and can take care of all types, I love taking walks and caring for them! I used to pet sit for many dogs around the neighbourhood. I’m at school from Monday to Friday but I can leave at lunch to check on pets and house. I can sleepover during the week and I can be there all day during the weekends. I love to play with my dog and cats and will do the same with your animals to make sure they are well taken care of and happy.
About: I am dedicated to the care of dogs and cats of various breeds and ages, I have extensive experience with puppies to senior dogs. My skill set encompasses walking, engaging in play, and administering medications. Throughout my journey, I have developed an understanding of the diverse needs and temperaments among each individual pet. Whether providing lively activities for energetic puppies/kittens, gentle attentive care for elderly and patience with rescues, I will prioritize their well-being with compassion. Each pet will receive the highest standard of attention and affection. Please feel free to reach out if you need support. I am currently only offering drop-in visits and walks! Feel free to ask and I am willing to be flexible if needed or take last minute requests if I am available. Please note: My availability varies week to week as I'm currently working part-time and casually while searching for full-time employment after completing my MSW degree. I am often available evenings and weekends. I regularly update my calendar, but please message me directly to confirm current availability for your specific dates. I'm happy to work with flexible scheduling and often have last-minute openings! Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I’ll work with you to understand exactly what your pet needs to feel secure and happy, whether that’s quiet companionship, active play, or just knowing someone caring is nearby. I’m committed to creating a safe, loving environment where your pet can relax and be themselves.
About: Hi! I’m looking for helping doggy daycare/walks potty, open for some house sitting :) I worked/work at a kennel/doggy day care, I have over 3 years of experience in the animal industry. I can work with big/small, social, not social, some cats, good with puppy’s and elderly, love to play, walk, cuddle and pass time with the pups and know how to do different feeding, medication, walks, supervision and crates etc I already work with dogs! Why not add some more in my life!, make sure the pups are not alone and help around. Plus finding new connection and friendships. Definitely make sure nothing is on the floor, food everything clean, take the pup out lots for potty and keep every thing tidy and respectful of their items and home. Walks, playing, supervision.
“Ramona did a great job looking after our pets. They were happy and calm when we returned. We received lots of updates on how they were going at home. I really appreciated the communication so that I could relax knowing my babies were well looked after. Thank you Ramona, you cared for our pups & cat like they were your own. Thank you!”
“Our dog is 12 years old and I have never hired a stranger to come and stay with her in our house. I was so fortunate to connect with Bronya to stay with "dazzle". Dazzle often doesn't make up with new people that come to our house. Dazzle loved her. I was pleasantly pleased there were no hiccups and my house was just how I left it. I would recommend Bronya for taking care of your pet and will keep her in mind for possible future repeat care.”
“Mala was the absolute best! She was so thorough with her care and communication. I always knew how the pets were doing, and I knew they were safe and well cared for when they were with her. I highly recommend Mala to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter, you won’t be disappointed and you will have a care free vacation with her taking care of them!”
About: I’ve always had animals in my life. I share my home with two Siamese sisters, Jade and Rosie, and before that I had a Shih Tzu named Rio who I adored. He passed three years ago, but he’s still a big part of why I love caring for pets. I’m active, I love being outdoors, and walking dogs is one of my favorite ways to spend time. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I work full time, but my evenings and weekends are wide open. That gives me plenty of time to walk dogs, check in on pets, and give them the attention they need. I’m active and love being outdoors, so fitting pet care into my routine feels natural for me. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines and make sure their space stays calm and familiar. I pay attention to feeding instructions, walk schedules, and any special needs. I’m gentle, patient, and always focused on keeping pets safe and comfortable. I treat every animal like my own and keep communication open so you always know how your pet is doing.
“To say that Mélanie went above and beyond would be an understatement! Within her first few minutes with us we had a power outage and a massive storm. We ended up deciding to relocate to my partners house for the duration of her stay and she was so calm and helpful throughout the whole situation. My baby boy is on a special diet and I had forgot some of his premade meals during the chaos of switching houses but Melanie had no problem helping me out and cooking some of his meals for me. She truly took care of him as if it was her own dog and gave me plenty of updates along the way so I never had to worry. It was the first time I could be away without being worried and it really made a world of difference. My boy Alfred seemed to be pretty smitten too and is definitely looking forward to seeing her again!! 🤗🤗”
“Katie took care of our dog and stayed at our house for 4 days over March break. She took great care of Mondu and provided lots of updates. We are happy to have found such a great dog/house sitter and hope to book again with her!”
“Jackie came to our home for 6 nights to watch and care for our 2 year old Husky/Lab mix. We can tell our pup had a great time in Jackie's care. She took the time to send us pictures and updates during our time away. She left our home neat and tidy. Will definitely utilize Jackie again, and highly recommend her. Thank you Jackie!”
About: I am from a household of pet lovers - 2 bengal cats, a potcake puppy and a king cavalier. I care for these animals on a daily basis working from home. Taking care of these animals includes daily walks, basic grooming, changing/maintaining litter boxes, potty breaks, feeding them, giving them their medicines, playing with them, etc. I have dog sat for family and friends before but am new to the Rover app! I am a full time student and working part time as a server. I am looking forward to walking dogs before and after classes and on the weekends. I also am interested in dog/cat sitting on the weekends. I will not be offering in house services due to the many pets at my current household. I do want to make any of the animals uncomfortable! I will be offering services at clients houses (pet sitting) on the weekends and dog walking around the neighbourhoods the animals are comfortable walking in.
About: Once you try my service I guarantee that you will call me back, I understand the pets and the way they like to be treat, they just love to play and have attention that's all. The same way how they live in your home will be at mine or during the time that you’re out, it's easy and enjoyable job, there's nothing else to explain by each task. If needed to give a shower I also do it as extra if you will like to do so, Just I need from you to tell me what exactly your requirements and no worries. I use to have 15 dogs in my father farms and all of them were so happy pets always playing around and enjoy them time.
“It was a pleasure to have Alice watch our anxious dog, Archie. She met us beforehand to learn about how to care for Archie, and was punctual and responsive to messages. She also gave us regular updates about Archie throughout the day.”
“Rebeca was fantastic—kind, reliable, and great with Meeko. She sent regular updates and photos, took him on lots of walks, and kept everything in perfect shape at home. I had total peace of mind and would book her again in a heartbeat.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Clarence-Rockland is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Clarence-Rockland
We were so lucky to find Amanda - it was a very last minute thing! She agreed to babysit with only a 40 hour heads up, and even came for a meet and greet first. Amanda shows up on time, is very pleasant, kind, and polite, and very sweet! My German Shepherd, in particular, showed great enthusiasm towards her (my other dog is shy and nervous). I could see right away that Amanda feels very at ease with dogs, and I could also see that she loved large dogs, as she played with, and patted, my Shep with an obviously experienced attitude! She's great. I will definitely rebook! :)

FAQs for House Sitting - Clarence-Rockland
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Clarence-Rockland on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 735 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Clarence-Rockland. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Clarence-Rockland maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Clarence-Rockland walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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 Clarence-Rockland 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!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, identity check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
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.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 91% 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.
