“Eleanor is amazing with Nevi! She’s attentive, kind, and treats Nevi just like we do. Her communication is great, and she follows our training plan to keep things consistent. We highly recommend Eleanor — it’s clear she truly cares about animals!”
“Mariana and Fernanda were the best sitters we could have hoped for. They did once daily drop in visits for our cat and they always went above and beyond. As soon as you meet them you can tell how much they genuinely love animals and really know their stuff. I was really stressed about leaving Jackson but they offered lots of reassurance and explained everything very well. I was fully comfortable in no time. They sent tons of pictures and videos of Jackson each day, and it was clear he loved them and had forgotten about us completely lol they are both so kind and professional, and I would 100% recommend them for any of your animal needs. They truly are exceptional at what they do.”
“We had such a great experience with Stacey. She sent messages and photos each time she visited. Great communication, great photos of our cat, and we felt good knowing he was well cared for while we were away. I will definitely book her again.”
About: We have lots of experience with babysitting our friends dogs (sometimes for 1 week+) and before we get our own we wanted to try out Rover! My husband had a dog growing up and I am very responsible so if you want a type A girlie watching your pup or cat - I’m the one! My schedule is very flexible and so is my husbands. We would work home most days with flexible work schedules and weekends free. Always willing to move schedules around to watch your fur baby! I have a fenced in yard, small but lots of parks nearby so we would mostly be taking your pup for walks! Very safe neighbourhood in Woodbine Gardens. House is already cat and dog proof.

“A perfect experience with Lexi! Both our cat and dog took to her immediately at the meet & greet. We were thankfully able to get her last minute for the Easter weekend. On her visits, she spent quality playtime with our kitty and followed any instructions we had. Our cat seemed very relaxed and content when we arrived home. I would absolutely recommend Lexi and we definitely plan on using her services again! Thanks so much, Lexi!”
“I knew within a few minutes of meeting Brook that he was the right person to visit my 2 cats twice a day. He sent me daily updates with pics which allowed me to relax and not worry while out of town for 10 days. He did a splendid job feeding/ cleaning litter box and kept the cats area clean. I will definitely be using Brook for further sitting and recommending him to all pet parents. Thank you SO MUCH Brook. I appreciate a job well done!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - East York
Clara took such great care of Hank, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. From the start, I felt completely comfortable trusting her with him. She provided thoughtful updates, detailed notes, and lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Hank was well cared for and in great hands. Clara was reliable, communicative, and genuinely cared about his well-being. We are so grateful for the care she provided and will absolutely be booking with her again in the future. I would recommend Clara to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!
Daniela was amazing with Koda. Her communication throughout was excellent, and she sent so many updates, pictures, and videos which gave us so much peace of mind. Koda was so well looked after and we will absolutely be booking with Daniela again. highly recommend!
Sarah is the best person who has ever cared for my dog. I'm using another Rover sitter in another city who also had 5 stars and they are so much worse than Sarah that I was motivated to come back and leave a review. Sarah is an outstanding communicator who pays close attention to the animal's behavior. I can't recommend her highly enough.
We are so fussy about who takes care of our sweet Fable, she's the centre of our universe and we RARELY leave her with others. Maddie instantly made us realise that our girl was in amazing hands, and we are SO grateful. She was so kind to our silly, stubborn 13 year old golden retriever and it was clear from the daily pics that Fable was having the best time. We can't wait for Maddie to hang out with Fable again ASAP.
Laura was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she gave to Morty. She was also extremely flexible and accommodating, which made coordinating everything so easy and stress-free. It’s such a relief to know that when I’m away, Morty is in such capable and caring hands. I would highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely great dog sitter. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch Morty again!
Vanessa was extremely dedicated in her time with Renzo. She provided consistent, clear updates and, ever since she first met Renzo, she instantly clicked with him and showed genuine care for animals. Sitters like her give great ease of mind when you're away. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.
Wonderful experience with Simon and Ali with my new puppy for drop-in visits. Extremely accommodating, communicative, and flexible with my schedule, even as things changed. Also accommodated a meet and greet in advance of starting Rover sessions to meet my puppy. I felt very confident leaving my puppy in their care and well supported as I returned to work.
Melissa is outstanding. My nervous rescue pup, Brynn agrees! Melissa is wonderful with dogs and Brynn immediately warmed up to her. Now she runs to the window watching when she leaves. I have complete peace of mind knowing Brynn is well cared for and loved. The pictures sent throughout of Brynn having the time of her life helps too. Highly recommend.

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.

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.
