About: I have had dogs my whole life from puppies to seniors to rescues. I have experience with all different types of personalities and preferences. I take the time to get to know your fur babies to provide care as close to what you would provide to them as I can. I work downtown so I am able to drop in on my lunch to check in or walk. I am also availability for pet sitting. I will take the time to review all your pets needs and ask questions to ensure you feel comfortable trusting your pet with me as I know it can be hard to leave them with someone else.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have enjoyed caring for them since I was a child which has led me down a career path in veterinary medicine. I’ve owned large breeds and small breeds, and currently a Pomeranian who likes to be carried more than walked! I am a registered veterinary technician at Burnside Veterinary Hospital with additional volunteer experience prior to completing my education. I live a very active lifestyle and love to bring my pets along with me for my adventures! My experience in veterinary medicine will ensure your dog is safe and healthy under my supervision:) I currently work full time Monday-Friday. My evenings are typically free after 4pm and weekends are open as well. I do have one morning off per week, typically a Wednesday or Friday. Unfortunately I am not able to host pets in my home due to my building having a no pet policy. However I like to have active communication with clients to ensure I have a full and detailed understanding of their pets needs and routine. Curating lists and schedules based off of pet and owner preferences is ideal to give proper care to their animal(s).

About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient, and attentive approach to pet care. I have strong listening and communication skills from my customer service background, so I always make sure pet parents feel updated and reassured. I pay close attention to each pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether it’s an energetic puppy who needs consistency and positive reinforcement, or a senior pet who needs gentle care and extra patience, I adapt to make them feel safe and comfortable. I treat every pet like family and create a loving, stress-free environment where they can relax and be themselves. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent supervision and attention throughout the day. Pets in my care are rarely left alone and can enjoy regular interaction, playtime, and comfort.I am available for house sitting for both cats and dogs, and I can also host cats in my home. Since I work remotely, I’m able to follow feeding schedules closely, provide timely potty breaks, and maintain a calm, structured environment.I only accept bookings I can fully commit to, ensuring every pet receives reliable, attentive, and loving care. Since I work from home, cats in my care receive consistent supervision, playtime, and affection throughout the day. I follow feeding schedules closely, provide cozy resting spots, and make sure their environment is calm and stress-free. I also spend time socializing and enriching their day with toys, scratching posts and gentle interaction. I provide house sitting by following each pet’s routine carefully feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. I ensure their environment stays safe and comfortable and I provide updates to owners regularly so they feel reassured. For dogs, I include walks or outdoor play and for cats, I make sure they feel safe and relaxed. I adapt to each pet’s needs, whether they are energetic, shy or senior pets needing extra care.No matter the location or service, every pet in my care receives attention, affection and the same level of love and responsibility I would give my own pets.

Liz and Mike dropped in on our kitty Dorito while we went on vacation for a week in Cuba. I contacted them on short notice and they came to my house right away for a visit. We got a great vibe from them within minutes. While we were away, communication was difficult because the app didn’t work in Cuba but Liz did her best to send updates. Dorito was very well cared for and the house was exactly as we had left it. This was my first time using Rover and now we are so grateful we found someone we can trust with our fur baby and our home ! We will definitely be using Liz and Mike for our next getaway.

About: Hi I’m Briagh ! From the time I was a little kid there has always been at least one dog in my life. I was raised with dogs and I have owned my own dog Luna for the past 9 years, unfortunately she has recently passed away. Luna was my best friend and my whole life revolved around giving her the best life, she was my hiking buddy and came with me everywhere. Nothing makes me happier than being around dogs. My partner and I live in a house with a very large fenced in back yard, our back yard backs onto a huge wilderness trail system with several lakes and rivers near by. I am out on the trail nearly everyday hiking, running and swimming. We live an active life style and love animals ! We are home bodies so love to be at home and use our back a yard, we also have a trail system behind us. My partner works from home full time so he will be able to care for your pet during the day while I am working. I will give your pet lots of love and attention and cater to their specific needs. If your dog is active I live an active lifestyle, and if they like to relax we have lots of space including a large fenced in back yard. I also have access to many trails right outside my door step. I have a lot of experience caring for sick and senior dogs. I palliated my previous dog for 6 months before she passed away. We live in a three story town house so we have three sets of stairs-to be kept in mind for pets with mobility issues.

Having grown up around animals, I understand their needs and how to meet them. I’m attentive and caring, providing the safe, loving care your pet deserves.

About: I have taken care of pets for 5 years now! I took a little break in 2025 to focus on work, but I’m excited to get back into working with your pets! I have walked, pet sit, and tended to dogs of all sizes and ages. Most notably, I took care of my neighbor's two large, elderly dogs for about a year. I gave them as much time as they needed on their walks and let them tell me what kind of energy they had for the day. I have also cared for and walked chiweenies (chihuahua/dachshund), bernedoodles, and everything in between. Additionally, I own two of my own cats and cat sit for friends and neighbors on occasion! I am currently working a full time job but am happy and excited to care for your pets in my hours of free time each day! I have a gentle and comforting way I go about caring for animals. Their health, safety, and happiness always comes first and I do everything I can to assure your pets are comfortable and happy in my care.

I’m experienced with feeding, walks, playtime, administering oral medications if needed, cleaning up after pets, and providing lots of attention and affection. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages for peace of mind :) I’m currently available with a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable care throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends when needed. I always do my best to accommodate each pet owner’s schedule and ensure your pet receives the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions you provide.

About: I've had family dogs my whole life, but have had my own dogs for around 8 years now! I love all animals, and I would love to make a pet and their parents day a little easier while they're out for fun or at work! I have also worked for the SPCA, and have dealt with many pet personalities. I work 9-5, so I can care for your pet/pets after work, or before work if it's early! I am also available anytime on the weekends. I have a yard at my home and a couch for your pet to relax on, unless they'd prefer a bed! I have one small dog and two cats at home that can keep your furry family member company along with myself. For walking dogs, I may need a leash provided because mine is suitable for smaller breeds. I can also care for your pets in your home if that's preferred.

About: Hi! I’m Danielle! 🐾 I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable person who has always loved animals. I’m a mom, and my home is a warm, busy, family-oriented environment. I’m hoping to offer pet sitting as a way to earn some extra income while doing something I genuinely enjoy. I have experience caring for animals and understand that leaving your pet with someone else requires a lot of trust. I’ll treat your pets with the same patience, kindness, and attention that I would want someone to give my own. Because I have a young child at home, I do need pets staying in my home to be comfortable and safe around children. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s personality, routines, energy level, and any quirks or special needs ahead of time to make sure we’re a good fit. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medications if needed, and lots of love and attention. I know how reassuring it is to receive updates while you’re away, so I’m always happy to send photos and let you know how your pet is doing. I’d love to meet you and your furry family members and see if I can be the right person to care for them! 🐶🐱❤️ Danielle Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m a mom and spend a lot of time at home, so I’m able to provide pets with regular attention, companionship, potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I’m looking to take on a manageable number of pets so that each animal gets individual attention rather than feeling like they’re simply being left in a busy group. I’m happy to work with each pet’s normal feeding, walking, and bathroom schedule and keep their routine as consistent as possible while their owners are away. In my home, pets would be treated as part of the family and would have plenty of supervision, affection, playtime, and opportunities to go outside. Because I have a child, I only accept pets who are comfortable and safe around children. For client visits or care in the owner’s home, I’m respectful of the pet’s familiar environment and routines. I follow the instructions provided by the owner for feeding, walks, medication, bathroom breaks, and any other specific needs. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so owners know how their pets are doing.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in ColeRidge Estates on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 431 sitters on Rover for Dog Sitting in ColeRidge Estates. About 87% of ColeRidge Estates 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.

Rover makes it easy to find sitters who are available during your working hours. To find sitters who fit your schedule, select which days of the week and the time slots you'd like a sitter to visit. The search results will populate sitters whose calendars match your needs. You can also search for sitters by location, whether that’s a sitter near your office for day care drop-off or a sitter close to your home. Once you've found a sitter who you like, message them directly to schedule a Meet & Greet.

Tip: Doggy day care is another option for pet supervision while you're at work. Visit our doggy day care page for more information.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a ColeRidge Estates stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 ColeRidge Estates 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.

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.

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.
