“Radhika did a wonderful job doing drop-in visits with my shy cat Phoenix. She is a lovely and caring person as well as professional, communicative and followed my particular instructions for feeding and trying to get Phoenix to come out from hiding. And she was equally excited as I was when he did some. I would highly recommend Radhika to others who have cats. And will definitely reach out again when I’m going away. Thank you Radhika!”
“Thankyou Caroline. Mairi is in tip top shape as she climbed Mt. Everest today... top of the stereo equipment in the living room center wall corner. I tried to get her to kiss me as she has kissed you... it was a no go for me. :) Thank you.”
“This was my first time using Cyndy. I’m so happy to have found Cyndy as she’s very professional and kept in touch with me everyday to put my mind at ease with photos. My cats Mya and Simba look v happy and I’ll be most glad to use Cyndy again for upcoming bookings :).”
About: What sets me apart is my reliability & patience. I carefully follow care instructions, respect each pet’s routine, and make sure owners stay updated so they feel confident their pet is in good hands. I work from home Tuesdays - Fridays which means I am available during these days and weekends to play/care for your pets and ensure the safety of your animals! I care for pets by following their routine as closely as possible and making sure they feel comfortable in their environment. I provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes and playtime based on each pet’s personality. I can keep owners updated with photos and messages. I always respect the home and carefully follow any instructions provided.
“Ali was GREAT. It was important to me to leave our baby with someone I could trust and she immediately made me and Yami feel comfortable. My Black cat walked right up to her and greeted her. She sent pictures which made us feel close to him. He seemed happy when we got home (though of course he was a bit upset we left at all). Ali is awesome, you should book with her! Highly recommend.”
“Clara is absolutely amazing! I’ve used her twice. One of the times being very last minute and she was extreme accommodating. Her rover cards always make me laugh, very creative!!! I feel at ease that she’s checking on my fur baby. 10/10 would recommend :)”
“Josh provided outstanding care for Pablo and Zoe while I was traveling, and I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. From the moment he took over, it was clear that he was attentive, responsible, and genuinely cared for their well-being. Both of my pets seemed to really like him, and they felt completely at ease in his presence, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Josh followed all the instructions I provided meticulously, ensuring that both Pablo and Zoe stuck to their routines without any issues. He was communicative, providing updates and photos that reassured me they were in good hands. It was evident that he not only met their basic needs but also took the time to engage with them, making sure they felt loved and comfortable. I highly recommend Josh to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter. His dedication and attentiveness make him a fantastic choice for anyone who wants their pets to be well cared for in their absence.”
“Tania is a wonderful sitter, and I felt completely at ease leaving my boy Freddy in her care. She was reliable, communicative, and has a natural way of connecting with animals. She provided numerous regular updates and followed all instructions carefully. Whenever anything came up, she was quick to communicate and very solution- oriented, which I truly appreciated. Freddy was super comfortable with her and clearly well cared for throughout. I truly appreciate her consistency and thoughtful care. I will absolutely be booking Tania again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter.”
“First time leaving Nefertiti alone for more than a day and she couldn't be in better care than with Sandie. Sandie sent multiple photo and video updates during each visit and I can tell Nefertiti was comfortable under her care. Thanks again Sandie.”
“We are so happy with the care and affection Candy gives our cat while we are away. She has taken care of him for a number of our getaways. We keep asking Candy because she is so reliable and responsive. We have peace of mind and always come home to a happy kitty.”
About: Grown up having dogs at home all my life so far. My family and friends would always get me to dog sit their munchkins. I love walking and would love taking those munchkins for walks and have some playtime. Looked after all age group of pups and cats also looked after birds.Personally I simply cannot wait to have a pup of my own once i do settle in. I have always wanted to work for a pet store and did want to pursue carrier as a vet. Reliable, loyal, playful and lots of pampering are few other pointers about me. Back in India, I've not just had pups but also a variety of fish, turtles, birds and some reptiles.k Looking forward on working with you guys and an opportunity on interacting with your puppies. Thank you in advance for giving me an opportunity. I am a freelance Graphic designer so I'm pretty flexible with the days and timings. I usually like to maintain the routine that the pups are used to and follow them accordingly This is where the meet and greet comes in handy.having detailed information about the pup boarding in or coming in for day care helps making their stay/visit more comfortable. If there are more than 2pups involved, I make sure to take permissions from the parents before confirming they stay/visit. Lots of play time indoor, breaks and then walks.
“Sydney was lovely to work with again (this was the second time she cared for my cats while I was away, but I forgot to leave feedback last time). She arrived when she said she would, sent updates, and asked questions when needed. I will book her again next time I am in need!”
“Eleanor was a delight to work with, and my cat absolutely adores her! She passed along lots of updates and it clear that Teddy was happy, safe, and having fun while I was away!”
“Stacey is the best, she is so patient and caring with our reactive pup. She has been incredibly helpful to us, from walks and house-sits - we are so glad to have found her 💛 highly recommend!”

Tania did an amazing job looking after my two kitties! I had a lot of instructions with multiple medications to administer and she handled it confidently and kindly. Tania was very communicative throughout the whole process and made me feel at ease knowing my kitties were well taken care of. I came home to two content senior pets. I am planning on booking Tania again the next time I need a sitter.
We had a great experience with Stacey. Easy communication, showed up the same time each day, sent plenty of photos and updates. Cats loved the company and pets. She even brought packages into the house for us without asking. Will definitely use Stacey again in the future!
We had a wonderful experience with Kruisha and would happily book with her again. This was the first time we had left our two cats alone for several days, so we were understandably nervous, but she made the entire experience so much easier. She was reliable, communicative, and took great care of both cats. She sent regular updates with photos and videos, spent time playing and cuddling with them. It was very reassuring to see how comfortable our cats became with her. Additionally, she was also incredibly flexible when our plans changed. We had to adjust the visit times on two occasions because of a personal matter, and she was very accommodating. Knowing our cats were so well cared for allowed us to enjoy our trip with peace of mind. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, dependable, and thoughtful pet sitter.
Lucinda was so wonderful with my two cats, who I was leaving alone for the first time since I adopted them. So I was missing them so much during my trips, but her photos and updates were so nice to receive and I could tell both of my cats ADORED her and were doing great <3 She's such a lovely person who is so good with cats. Despite my scaredy boy usually being quite shy, he was opening right up to her and had both of them wanting pets and attention :)
Djenne always goes above and beyond when taking care of our sweet and anxious Pepper cat. It took no time for Pepper to warm up to her. The quick and deep bond, informative reports and fun photo shoots keep our minds and hearts at ease whenever we have to be away from our cat and home.
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!
Alicia was very responsive and kind. We had two introductory visits and I knew that Agatha trusted her immediately. While I was away, Alicia was very patient as Agatha can be quite territorial and timid. However, Alicia took the time to talk and play with Agatha and everything went really well. I hope to go away again soon!
Amrita is an amazing petsitter. She is my go-to person to take care of my cat. Every single time, she goes above and beyond. I always get daily updates on how my cat is doing. I can tell she really cares about pets. My cat is quite shy and she has opened up to her. Highly recommend Amrita for all your pet-sitting needs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in East York on Rover is $25.53 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 6,921 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in East York. About 86% of East York 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.
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 East York 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.
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 East York 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 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.
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.
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.
