“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!”
“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!”
“Alessia and her family have been amazing at sitting for my puppy, Gia. I knew she was going to be in good hands when we first met. They are attentive, caring, and well informed. I appreciated the updates/photos during my time away from her. Will definitely book with them again!”
“Joanne has been amazing, we just recently started with some walks and had our first weekend of boarding and we are so glad we found Joanne ! She is great at keeping us posted with photos and how the days are going. Our Leo loves her and she takes amazing care of him. We were able to have our first family camping weekend and knowing he was well taken care of kept me at ease. Thank you Joanne!”
“Definitely recommend and will bring Bella back here! They are easy going, listen well to what Bella needed and took good care of her! We picked up a happy dog!”
“I can’t thank Vicki and her family enough for taking wonderful care of my 1 year old puppy, Daisy, while I was away for the long weekend! From the moment I met them, I felt at ease knowing she would be with such caring people. They provided her with plenty of playtime, walks, attention, love, made a special effort to stick to her routine, while also training! I'm walking a different pup these days. Just amazing bonuses! I also received updates and adorable photos that reassured me she was happy and well-loved. When I picked her up, Daisy was thriving and clearly had a great time! I highly recommend this amazing family to anyone in need of a loving pet sitter. Thank you again for everything!”
“Thank you for taking care of our puppy while we were away!! Gretel was welcoming and very accommodating. She sent us lots of photos and we could see our puppy was in good hands and making lots of new friends. Much appreciated!”
“Nicole was so great at updating us enough that we felt content with how amazing the boys were being cared for, but not too much that I was thinking about them all the time. She was very professional, and just a 10/10 sitter. The boys were instantly so comfortable with her, and got many sweet cuddles.”
“Bryan and Raisa were very helpful, accommodating, and supportive caregivers to our 3yr old Mini Schnauzer. We appreciate all the communications and reassurances during our dogs first sleepover. We look forward to having them care for her in the future.”
“Mohina was amazing with Cooper! She kept us updated with photos and took great care of him. He came back happy, calm, and clearly well-loved. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!”
“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!”
“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\. 🐾❤️”
“Susan and her family were really great with Elodie and Butters. I could tell right away that my dogs would love their stay. I really liked how they live all around fields so that the dogs have endless opportunities to run around and play. It felt like I was dropping them off to their own little vacation!”
“Esten and Maddie were fantastic with Callie! Their house is super dog friendly and they kept us updated throughout her stay. Would absolutely book with them again!”
“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.”
“Julia watched our dog Ella for a week while we were on vacation and she had an amazing time! We got frequent updates and pictures, Ella got along really well with Julia's pets, and she was taken on lots of on fun outings. We were happy that Ella had a little vacation of her own while we were away. We will definitely be using Julia's services in the future and would recommend her to family and friends.”
“This is the first time I have gotten Kevin to look after my 8 pound, very nervous dog and he was wonderful!!! He kept me updated on how she was doing and provided some photos. I am so very glad I have found Kevin, I have already booked him for the summer when I will be away. Would not hesitate to recommend Kevin!”

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.
