“Miranda was an amazing dog sitter and dog walker. She is always available at a moments notice if need be and treated Ernie like he was her own. She has been amazing and would 10/10 definitely recommend her services!”
“We had a perfect experience with Courtney! She came to stay with our dog and cat - she left two happy pets and it was like she was never in our house it was so clean. Our cat is less than friendly but Courtney didn't bat an eyelash. We really appreciate having someone we can count on and are looking forward to having her sit again.”
“We are so happy that Ross was available for us on short notice! He kept our pups company in a hotel while we attended an event. We got lots of updates and photos throughout the evening and overall we are very pleased with the service!”
“5 star plus for Kathleen. We have a selective/unique cockerspaniel who loved her. She provided daily pics and updates keeping us in the know, especially when we were missing him. She left the house in great condition and communicated efficiently with family that was helping out. Thank you, Kathleen. Look forward to booking you again for our next getaway.”
“We have used Holly several times now for house sitting and couldn’t be happier with her service! She genuinely cares for our fur babies and respects our home whenever she stays. She is always sure to send a daily update with some photos from the day or weekend! We will certainly have Holly to care for our pets again.”
“Pets (2 cats, 2 dogs) were all well cared for and Cleah got up to speed with all the ‘personality’ from each of the fur-babies. Got lots of check-ins and pics, which was appreciated. Any questions or issues were resolved with a quick text. Overall, very happy with our experience!”
“Had Autumn stay at our house for a couple nights while we were out of town with my two female German shepherd dogs. Autumn was very friendly and early for both the meet & greet and the house stay. Felt comfortable leaving my girls with her, they seem super content. She was very clean and tidy.”
“Emily once again took great care of our feline friend over the weekend. Excellent communication, lots of photos, and super professional. Thanks again for giving us such peace of mind and providing our cat with terrific care!”
“I highly recommend Mallory! This was my first time using Rover, and after reaching out to a few sitters, Mallory was one of the first to suggest a meet-and-greet. That immediately gave me confidence that she wanted to make sure she was a good fit for Mufasa. Mufasa is a very timid cat, but when Mallory came over for the first time, he walked right up to her and gave her a sniff, which is rare for him. She stayed in my home for four nights and took great care of his medication, feeding, and litter box routine. It was a huge relief knowing he was in good hands while I was away. Mallory sent daily updates and photos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I would absolutely book with her again the next time I travel.”
“Louise was wonderful! Regular check-ins and photos were sent, even ones of our dog who wasn't ready to be her friend! The house was exactly as we left it and the dogs were happy!”
“Kelsey stayed in my home for 7 days to care for my two dogs, a husky and a chihuahua, and I could not have asked for a better experience. She was incredibly reliable and sent frequent updates and photos throughout the day, which made it so easy to relax while I was away. It was clear my dogs were very well cared for. She also left the house clean and tidy, which was so appreciated after returning from vacation. Knowing my dogs were in such good hands allowed me to fully enjoy my trip without worrying about them. I would recommend Kelsey in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter.”
“Jacques stay at our house to look after our two golden retrievers, Daisy and Rufus, and our bearded dragon, Spike. He did a wonderful job maintaining the dogs’ comfortable daily routine, and we really appreciated the daily updates that showed how well everyone was doing. When we got home, the dogs were happy, calm, and perfectly themselves— a good sign of the quality care they received. It was so reassuring to know they were in capable hands while we were away. We would absolutely recommend Jacques to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful pet sitter, and would be very happy to have him back again.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve had anywhere from a small dog, up to owning 2 Bernese mountain dogs at the same time. I do have little experience sitting for other peoples animals, but plenty of experience for my own, and I’ll treat your animals as if they were my own! I am working full time from 7:30-3:30 on weekdays, downtown Halifax. Before and after work I am available to be with your animals, walk them, and take them places! I provide attentive, reliable care in your home, keeping your pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I’ll follow their usual routines, provide plenty of companionship, and treat your home and pets with care and respect.
“Cassandra and Mark house and dog sat our two Labradors June 2 - June 7 and I can't say enough good things about them ❤️ Cassandra provided both morning and evening updates with photos and videos of their adventures. They went above and beyond our expectations with care for our dogs, one if which is a senior with medication and exercise needs. In addition to taking excellent care of Duke and Jenny, they also took great care of our home. I came back to a spotless house and well exercised, relaxed pets 👏 If you are looking for someone to take care of your pets and home, I highly recommend Cassandra. I will certainly be asking her to dog sit for us again.”
“Julia was great! Kai was very nervous at first as he has a lot of separation anxiety, but Julia was very patient with him and kept me updated the entire time! She sent lots of pictures of how happy he was :) I will definitely be rebooking with Julia”
About: Hi! I’m Lauren, and I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with both dogs and cats, so caring for pets has always been second nature to me. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have worked on a farm for many years where I spent my days around dogs, horses, and plenty of barn cats. Being around animals every day has taught me to read their body language, understand their unique personalities, and provide patient, attentive care. Whether your animal loves long walks, energetic playtime, or simply wants someone to keep them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I know every dog is different, and I’m happy to follow your routine to keep them comfortable and happy. I treat every dog like they’re my own, and I can’t wait to meet your best friend! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I work remotely four days a week in a flexible role, which allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. My schedule isn’t tied to a strict 9 to 5, so I’m able to adapt to your pet’s routine and individual needs. I live in a spacious apartment with plenty of room for your pet to relax and feel at home. Daily walks are already part of my routine, and I love getting outside for fresh air and exercise. When caring for your pet, I prioritize giving each animal the attention, affection, and consistency they deserve. Whether your pet enjoys an active day of adventures or a quiet afternoon of cuddles and naps, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. You’ll also receive regular photo updates, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I live in a quiet, pet friendly neighbourhood in a spacious apartment that provides a calm and comfortable environment for pets. My building is peaceful with minimal noise, making it a great place for dogs and cats to relax and feel at ease. There’s plenty of room to stretch out, play, and settle in, so your pet can enjoy a safe, stress free stay while you’re away.
“Elizabeth and Mike really put us at ease especially where we have a very challenging situation on keeping our two girls separated from each other. They gave us daily updates and left the house like it was and better that what we left it! I cannot recommend them enough nor thank them enough to look after our fur babies while we where on vacation!”

We recently had Louise stay with our 2 senior chihuahua's. She was awesome! Right away you can see that she’s a caring, gentle animal lover and our dogs certainly got the attention they needed. She made sure meds and meals were given on time. She sent us pics throughout the day which was wonderful. If you want to leave your fur babies with someone and take a worry free holiday. Louise is your girl. Broc and Tobi miss you! 🐾🐾 Carmella
Courtney was wonderful with our pug, cat and home! We were away for 18 days and came back to everything the way we left it. She even took a crash course on how to care for a pool and kept it crystal clear the entire time. We will absolutely rebook Courtney and recommend her to people.
Our family had a wonderful experience with June. Our dog, Koa, can be slightly reactive, and June was so patient and confident with her — she was clearly very happy and enjoyed plenty of walks and adventures while we were away. Our cat also seemed very content and comfortable spending time with her. A few. happy kitty! Coming home to a clean and well-cared-for home was such a nice bonus after our trip. June was reliable, caring, and attentive, and we felt very at ease knowing our pets and home were in good hands. We would absolutely recommend her and wouldn’t hesitate to have her back again when needed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in ColeRidge Estates on Rover is $83.25 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in ColeRidge Estates 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 ColeRidge Estates 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 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!
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:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 75% 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.
