About: I am fortunate to have had pets for 26 years! When I visit with your pet, my focus is on their care and well being. This means lots of time for pats, walks, playing, snacks and constant vocal praises! My goal is to make your furry family member feel at ease (and, therefore, you too!) I am a Covid and flu-conscious pet carer, and can wear a mask if requested. I have flexibility throughout my week as I work part time. I am not able to do visits before 930 AM, but, I can do weekends and late evenings with ease. I may also be able to do last-minute requests, as my schedule allows. I can do short visits or long visits, whichever is needed and preferred! I’m also very happy to have a long walk with your dog as it’s a favourite pastime of mine. I enjoy spending time playing with cats for longer periods. My goal is to treat your pet like they are my own! Your pet is a furry family member who I know is very important to you. Being a longtime pet owner myself, I completely understand this bond and the concerns you may have when leaving them with someone. I will make sure to follow all of your instructions to the letter. I do not take risks with animals, such as having them off leash when instructed not to. I am skilled at watching for warning signs. I currently have a dog (Badger) who has a seizure disorder triggered by certain foods, so I am very cognizant of food related allergies and limitations. My attention is always on your pet when they are in my care (i.e. if they get into something they shouldn’t, I am intervening immediately and not distracted by my phone etc.) My approach with animals is always positive reinforcement emphasized.
“Brianna took excellent care of our two sweet senior kitties while we were away for a week. They were very happy to see her every day for much-needed snuggles and wet food. I knew they were in good hands and I booked her again next month when we will be away for almost two weeks!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets through my own pet care business, Kenzie’s Canine Club. I provide dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, pet sitting, basic grooming services, and dog training support, and I’ve worked with pets of different ages, personalities, routines, and comfort levels. I’m also trained in dog training and have experience working with dogs who may be nervous, excitable, strong on leash, or unsure of new people. I believe in giving every pet the time and space they need to feel comfortable and using patient, positive, reward-based handling. Pet care is something I take very seriously. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual routine, feeding instructions, exercise needs, behaviour, and safety, while also making sure they get plenty of affection, enrichment, and one-on-one attention. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, so I always aim to keep pet parents updated and treat every animal in my care like they’re part of the family. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to offer pet care throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings and weekends. Since I run my own pet care business, I'm able to plan my schedule around my clients and their pet's individual routines. I offer both regular reoccurring care and occasional bookings, and I'll always do my best to accommodate last minute bookings when my schedule allows. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, a drop-in while you're at work, or care while you are away, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priority. I take the time to learn each pet's boundaries, temperament, triggers, and any special instructions before providing care, and I never force interactions with an animal who needs extra time to feel comfortable. I am careful with doors, gates, leashes, harnesses, and outdoor spaces, and I follow all household and care instructions closely. I also believe trust is built through patience and consistency, especially with nervous or cautious pet's. When caring for pet's in their own home, I respect bother their space and yours. My goal is to create a calm, secure environment where your pet can relax and feel comfortable while you are away.

“It always feels good and safe leaving my 2 cats home, when I am away. That’s because Christine takes over with small attentions and keeping the routine for my cats. It always turns out into a positive experience for everyone😻😻. Thank you again for your great services!”

About: I have always been an animal lover! I grew up with dogs, cats, hamsters, bunnies, fish, chicken, ducks, horses, and many more. I have been working at a kennel-free daycare/boarding facility for 4 years now, and I have always been the one in the family to look after everyone’s pets when they are away. I have my own dog, a Siberian Husky, since she was puppy. I have experience looking after/training puppies, not just own but at work as well. I have experience with dogs/cats of all breeds, all different sizes, and of all ages. I have experience with bathing, and nail trims (with a dremel) with dogs, and I have experience with giving medication to pets as well. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out! I have an extremely flexible work schedule, therefore I have plenty of time to look after your fur babies! I am available to pet sit whenever, as long as I have a few days notice. I have a very friendly dog that can join for house sitting, walks, or check-ins, if that is wanted. I am more than comfortable following your pets schedules/routines, as I understand every pet is different. Even any funny/silly quirks they might have, that’s what makes them unique and sooo loveable!
About: I have fostered multiple dogs, different ages, different breeds and they all looked back when I returned them! I can send you pictures so you know how happy your dog is with their sitter Free on weekends. On weekdays I can still take care of your dogs if they don’t have separation anxiety and are potty trained. Just like a dog owner who works. I can check in on them at noon as the commute is short I’m living in a pet friendly apartment with an elevator. A dog park nearby and lots of trails for walks. Can send you pictures and updates of your kid if needed
“I am so happy to have connected with Erica. As a Potcake mom herself, I knew Naiya would be in good hands. She was responsive and provided me with lots of updates during her stay. I look forward to booking with Erica again.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Abbey and James! They were punctual, detail-oriented, and went above and beyond to make sure our pets were happy and well cared for. They even brought toys and enrichment toys to keep them entertained and engaged. Communication was excellent throughout, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We also came home to a clean and tidy house, with fresh, clean water and food bowls and the litter area swept up. It was clear that they genuinely cared about our pets and took pride in making sure everything was taken care of. We would absolutely recommend them and would happily have them care for our pets again!”

About: Although I’m new to professional pet sitting, I bring something just as valuable: genuine love, patience, and dedication to animals. Friends and neighbors have always trusted me with their pets, because they know I treat every furry (or feathered!) friend as if they were my own. I work from home most days, which allows me to provide consistent attention and flexibility for feeding, walks, and companionship. On the three days I commute to the office, I am still available before and after work, while weekends are fully open. This schedule ensures I can reliably meet the needs of pets and give them the care they deserve. I’m meticulous about safety and will keep a close eye on your furry family member at all times. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel loved while you’re away.

About: I’ve owned dogs and cats all my life and I have a small 12 pound dog that is eight. I understand how important it is for pets to have time to play and stay into their daily routine. I am able to walk, play or administer medicine when required for dogs and cats. As a dog walker, my schedule permits me to walk anytime on the weekday, and early in the morning or early evening on the weekdays.

“I asked Vannesa to take care of my cat a few times now. I felt good about leaving my cat in Vannesa's care each time. I also booked a few times last minute and I appreciated a lot the willingness to accommodate that. Great communication. As far I can tell, my cat received a lot of love each time (along with all the food, water, hygiene care <3 ). I'm likely to book again!”

About: I’ve always had a genuine love for dogs and I’m passionate about making sure every dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and loved. 🐶❤️ I’m a patient and attentive pet caregiver who takes the time to understand each dog’s personality, routine, and individual needs. Whether your dog is energetic and loves long walks, a little shy and needs time to warm up, or simply enjoys some company and attention during the day, I’m happy to adapt to them. I’m especially comfortable with puppies, high-energy dogs, and dogs who need a little extra patience and reassurance. I understand that every dog is different, and I believe in positive reinforcement, gentle handling, and never rushing a dog beyond their comfort level. When your dog is with me, my priority is simple: their safety, happiness, and well-being. I’ll treat your pup like my own and keep you updated so you can feel completely comfortable while you’re away. 🐾💕 IG pawsandgrace26 My schedule allows me to dedicate my weekdays to pet care, especially during the daytime when many pet parents are at work. I’m available Monday through Friday from approximately 10 AM to 3 PM for dog walks, drop-in visits, and other pet-care needs. I’m also sometimes available on weekends depending on my schedule. I value consistency and reliability, so I’m happy to work with pet parents to establish a regular routine that works well for their pets. My priority is always the safety and well-being of every pet in my care. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and any special needs. I provide a calm, clean, and comfortable environment and always keep pets supervised and secure. During walks, I use appropriate leashes and pay close attention to my surroundings and the pet’s behavior. I also make sure doors, gates, and other exits are secure so pets cannot accidentally escape. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect, while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. I want both pets and their families to feel safe, comfortable, and confident in my care.

About: My name is David-Alexander. I am available to travel with my vehicle throughout the Gatineau and Ottawa area. I am currently available at any time, including weekdays, evenings, and weekends, to care for your pets either in your home or mine. I have a 11-year-old female dog named Kali. ALL PETS ARE WELCOME! Kali was aggressive for years I have experience with temperament Coming from a family that has always had pets, I have been passionate about animal care my entire life. I have owned dogs and cats for as long as I can remember and would be happy to care for yours as if they were my own. Why choose me? I understand how important it is to know that your furry family member is being left in a safe, caring, and trustworthy environment. I will make sure your pets are happy, comfortable, well-fed, and loved while you are away. Whether they need supervision, companionship, exercise, or simply someone to keep them company, I am happy to help. I would be happy to send you photos and updates of your pets while I am caring for them I can provide two one-hour walks each day for dogs who require lots of exercise. for temperamental dogs we must do a together session so they learn to get to know me I am also available for home visits where I can: Feed your pets Take them outside for bathroom breaks Walk and exercise them Give them affection and companionship Administer basic care according to your instructions My goal is to provide reliable, attentive, and loving care so that you can have peace of mind while you're away from your pets. I work from home and look for some companionship. hike and walk a lot. I love audiobooks, and I hate sitting still if you have a high-energy dog. Perfect. If your dog is old and slow. Awesome just means I get to the end of my book faster. I also had a rescue that needed a lot of training and an alpha male to make her feel protected and safe. It took years to get her to walk by people, dogs, and children. I still cry to this day thinking about where we started and how it ended. I think about all the times she looked up at me for reassurance. I miss her so much. Life is too short for animals; they need loving walks and belly rubs. My roommate has a mini dog. Our yard is large and fenced in. I'm always home or hiking, so your dogs would get a lot of walks and hikes in Gatineau Park. I also set goals for my dog; a newtrick a day keeps the doctor away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Many sitters respond to requests in under an hour. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once.
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.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:
- Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
- House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
- Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.
Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.
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 Dunrobin 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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, your payment method is charged at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
