“We just cannot thank Elizabeth (Jayne) enough for all the love and attention she gave our old boy, Jack while we were away on vacation. Jayne was happy to be in touch with us and regularly sent pics and videos. Jack doesn’t always do well without us, but he settled in quickly and absolutely loved all the walks, love and attention he got at Jayne’s house! Jack is diabetic so it was such a relief knowing that Jayne had lots of experience giving insulin too. We will most definitely be calling Jayne again! Thank you, Jayne!”
“Alessia was wonderful in watching my dog over a weekend! This was my first time leaving him overnight with someone else and she was amazing in keeping him safe and happy ? I also loved how responsive she was in her responses and appreciated her flexibility when I had to request an additional night for her to watch him. Would highly recommend Alessia’s services and would book with her again!”
“Gretel took great care of our dog, Rosie. Rosie enjoyed her stay and had fun socializing with the other dogs. Gretel offered a clean and safe environment. Would highly recommend!”
“Allyson and her family were absolutely fabulous with Chica\! From the very beginning, Allyson’s communication was stellar—she was incredibly responsive, kind, and so accommodating, especially when I had to make last\-minute changes to drop\-off and pick\-up times\. They sent me lots of pictures throughout Chica’s stay, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was happy and well cared for\. It was such a wonderful experience from start to finish, and I’ve already booked Chica’s next stay with Allyson and her family\! I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, trustworthy, and caring home for their pet\. 🐾❤️”
“My pup is a nervous, skittish rescue who needs a lot of love and patience. Jessica was able to accommodate her needs, making sure that she was eating and drinking despite her resistance. Her dog, Snow, was friendly and I could see her dog and mine hanging out together in the photos and videos she sent. Jessica was very accommodating for drop off and pick up times when plans didn’t quite go my way. I’m glad to have found someone close by who I can trust for future stays!”
“Thanks Brian for taking excellent care of My two Boys. It was their first time to leave them with a stranger. Little scary at first but within a day I felt that they were safe and sound with their Sitter. Brian kept his excitement and his daily pooch experiences fresh and positive. We kept daily communication and he sent me many videos of them enjoying Brian’s company. Don’t hesitate to book with Brian. My two Yorkies were Uber happy sharing their day with Brian.”
“Meaghen and her girls were great with Dyson! He was comfortable and so happy there. We are lucky we found her last minute and she took him in without hesitation. We will definitely ask Meaghen to watch Dyson again during our next stay in Cobourg!”
“Joanne was fantastic with our dog, Penny! She kept us updated with photos and stories throughout Penny’s stay, which gave us great peace of mind. Joanne is caring, trustworthy, and clearly loves dogs. Her family was wonderful, and Penny enjoyed lots of walks, attention, and affection while staying in their home. We’re so glad we found Joanne and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter!”
“Vicki and her family were the absolute best home we could have asked for, for our Loki. Vicki sent updates and photos, showing us how how loved and well cared for he was all week. We would recommend Vicki to anyone looking for a wonderful home to love and care for your dog!”
“Thanks so much for taking such great care of Cabo for us!! We know when he is with you he is happy and safe!! He is even excited when we get on your street to drop him off!!😃🐾🐕”
“Esten (and Alfie) made my 9 year old black lab feel right at home. He loved the toys, playing with Alfie, rolling in the backyard, and generally being a part of the family. The photos of my dog were a treat and reassuring that all was well. Esten was also great about giving my dog medication, and also checked in with any questions or updates. I would highly recommend letting your dog stay with Esten, and plan to have him look after my dog again,”
“Loghan was a great sitter for our dog Riley while we were away for a few weeks. We felt assured leaving our older dog, who requires meds with Logan. Enjoyed getting updates along the way and that they enjoyed their time together.”
“Marta was our first sitter since moving to Peterborough and what a find! Great meet-and-greet, reliable communication and awesome updates throughout the day. My dog was in loving hands and I had peace of mind while she was in Marta’s care.”
“Our dog Fudge was made to feel welcome and more. Susan was flexible, pleasant, responsive and attentive to our needs and Fudge. It was nice to see pictures of him settling in and to hear that he adjusted well. We definitely recommend her , especially for anyone who wants their dog to get personal attention. Fudge enjoyed lots of that!”
“Mohina was a life saver for us. She took our pup in as an emergency board for us when we were stuck and we couldn’t have been more grateful. She was an absolute pleasure to meet and her family is so kind and lovely as well. They treated my Rusty like one of their own. Coco and Chanel approved! I believe everything happens for a reason and I am so glad we met. We have found our new boarding spot for sure! Highly recommend. ❤️”

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Cobourg 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 Cobourg
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:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 70% 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.
