âRadhika was responsive and thorough with her check-ins! The photos and descriptions of her visits were something we looked forward to every day we were away. We'd definitely recommend her to anyone!â

âCaroline accepted a short notice booking for our cat Moby and we were so relieved she did! Caroline kept us updated and took great care of Moby. Happy to recommend her.â


âCyndy was very communicative, easy to coordinate with, and send photos along with an update which was so appreciated! Thank you for a great home visit and for taking such good care of Louie!â
âI couldn't have asked for a better for my new puppy. Eva was able to connect with my pup so easily from first time they met, I knew he was in good hands. Eva was great at engaging with my puppy to keep him busy during his period outside of his crate. He got a lot of positive attention and quality care over multiple check-ins when we were stuck and couldn't make it home at lunch time. It was such a relief knowing my dog was well managed and having a great time when Eva stopped by. I received regular updates and photos that gave me complete peace of mind. Exceptional service, responsiveness, genuine warmth, and absolute professionalismâI highly recommend Eva if looking for someone to care for your pet.â


About: I have taken care of dogs for 2 years. I haven't owned my own but I did babysit my friends', neighbors', and family members' puppies or senior dogs. I have educated myself how to give care for the senior dogs and I am still improving myself in different topics; such as, how to give a bath and dog's psychology. I am working from home and I am teaching English; that's why, I can always have an eye on your pet and spend lots of time together. I have a fenced yard in my apartment and there might be my neighbors' dogs around so they can play together. I am very close to the beach and dog parks so your pet can always play and walk around with me in the nature or with other people's pets. đ
âJosh was excellent with my two cats. One of my cats required antibiotics while I was away and Josh did an exceptional job of updating me with that. I will absolutely be using him in the future and I encourage others to book with him :)â

About: Hello everyone! I'm Joelle, an avid pet enthusiast with a lifelong love for furry friends. Growing up in a pet-centric household surrounded by 4 dogs and 1 cat, my passion for animals started from day one. My journey in caring for dogs began in high school, and it's been a rewarding adventure ever since. My husband, on the other hand, comes from a family of cat lovers, making him more of a feline aficionado. (Don't get me wrong â I adore both cats and dogs!) Having a delightful pet around not only brings joy to our lives but also serves as a source of rejuvenation. I thoroughly enjoy engaging with them through play and care. Understanding the challenge of entrusting your beloved pet to someone else, I'm here to alleviate your concerns. Let's have a chat, and I'll gladly share more about myself. Throughout the day, I can keep you connected with your furry companion by sharing pictures and videos. Just like people, each pet has its unique preferences and personality traits. Please provide as much information as possible about your little (or big) one, so we can ensure their well-being and happiness to the fullest! Working from home allows me and my husband to be flexible and cater to most pet-related needs. I'm available for boarding, walking, and daycare on weekdays and weekends. I usually work in my bedroom, and your pet will be staying with me in my room or enjoying their own time in the living room!
âSandie took great care of our 2 cats while we were away. We came back to happy, well-cared for cats as well as clean extra cat bowls and tidy litter boxes. Sandie sent lots of videos of our cats happily playing, which made us feel more relaxed while we were away. Would absolutely recommend Sandie.â

âClara is absolutely amazing! Iâve 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 sheâs checking on my fur baby. 10/10 would recommend :)â

âAndy was great - she sent lots of sweet photos and even videos at each visit for the week we were away. Most importantly, we came back to a happy cat! Thanks Andy!â

âI am over the moon with how well my dog Fox was cared for. He is not an easy pet and he definitely showed that. Care was over and above anything I would have expected. I will definitely be a return client.?ââââââ


âI 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!â

Over the years, I have developed skills to meet their specific needs, ensuring their well-being and happiness. I specialize in providing a safe, loving environment tailored to the unique requirements of each pet. Additionally, I am experienced in administering medication, establishing feeding routines, and promoting activities to support their physical and emotional health.

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 - Iâm 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. Our kitty will be at grandmas while we board your fur baby :)
About: I live with and care for two reactive (but mostly beautiful and intelligent) village dogs in Midtown Toronto. I have daily experience and a deep understanding of their needs for appropriate space from triggers, positive reinforcement exercises, and decompression activities. To successfully manage their needs, I've gained a strong knowledge of canine communication, arousal and stress levels, and appropriate environmental settings. I have first hand experience taking a puppy from street to house - fully potty and house trained, and able to calmly interact with people and dogs all with only positive reinforcement. If you're looking for someone who can take care of your reactive or high needs dog, or someone who will take your dogs needs seriously, I'm here for you! As a freelance musician who works evenings, I usually have time for your dog on most weekdays through the 9-5 workday, and during the day on most weekends. I can ensure that I'll care for your dog with the same standards that I care for mine: positive reinforcement only, no pulling on their leash, no off-leash walks unless in a safe and fully fenced environment, no on-leash interactions with other dogs (or people if preferred/needed), appropriate and responsible canine socialization (needs dependant), and my complete and undivided attention and care.

Amrita was amazing with our two cats! She gave them so much love and attention while we were away for 10 days. I got the cutest photos and she always made sure to play with them rather than just stopping in to feed/clean litter. I would absolutely book again!

Mert has a really warm personality and was so easy to talk to. He took care of my cat, CC, over the weekend and even though I was out of cell range, I wasn't worried at all because I knew she was in great hands. CC was in good spirits when I got home. See you again next time!

Iâd love to recommend Andreaâs services! â¤ď¸ She took care of my cats with so much love, care, and patience while I was away on a trip. Sheâs not only an amazing cat sitter but also a wonderful human being. I felt comfortable knowing my babies were in good hands. đąđą I definitely recommend booking with Andrea if you need someone trustworthy and caring to look after your pets! đ

Elina is wonderful with my senior cat, Kitten. Kitten gets anxious when I'm away and Elina makes sure she gets lots of attention and company during her visits. Elina also makes sure Kitten gets her anxiety medication! Communication is great and I know Kitten is well taken care of when I'm away.

Cyndy is reliable, attentive, and clearly wonderful with cats! My cat seems comfortable with her, which is high praise considering sheâs a scaredy cat and stand-offish with most humans (aside from those she knows). Gives me real peace of mind when Iâm away. Communication is great, and I feel confident that kitty is in good hands! Excellent experience. Highly recommend!

Wilson and Jan's care was wonderful. They understood our older dog who is anxious and vocalizes with newcomers to the home. They took their time with him and allowed him to approach them, and soon he felt comfortable. They communicate well about how it all works. They also were keen to learn from me about his traits and needs. We had to be out of the home for an extended period, and their visits put our minds at ease that he was in good hands. Thank you, Wilson and Jan!
Joanna did a great job dropping in to take care of my three cats. She is very friendly, courteous, professional, communicative, and she followed my directions well. I received pictures of my cats while I was away which provided reassurance that my cats were fine. I will definitely use Joanna again in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in East York is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $39 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your petâs specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 6,960 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in East York. About 87% of East York sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether youâre 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 to ensure they are a perfect fit for your petâs personality before confirming.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your petâs routine and the sitterâs 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 petâs 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 sitterâs 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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Roverâs 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 , 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 .
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, 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. Youâll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
