“Thank you Angela! She took wonderful care of our dog, Budd. Helped manage his anxiety during thunderstorms, kept us up to date on how he was adjusting, and send sweet photos!”
“She was amazing with Sunnie! She took such great care of him for a couple of days, and he came home happy and well cared for. She was also incredibly flexible and was willing to keep him longer when my plans changed last minute, which I really appreciated. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. Would definitely recommend her and have her watch Sunnie again! 🐾🤍”
“Whitley was wonderful! I think my dog would have liked to stay with her longer. She worked with Phoebe to make her feel comfortable and at home. I also received cute pictures frequently. I would definitely recommend boarding with Whitley.”
“Samantha and Zach were super professional and responsive when our puppy was boarded with them. They made sure to send us lots of pictures and videos as updates! Will be bringing him back as he had the best time!”
“Manu is incredibly patient with our Corgi and Cockapoo. She absolutely loves animals. Our only regret is we're leaving the area and our girls will no longer get to visit Manu. If we return to Windsor, we will absolutely book with Manu again.”
“Avri is amazing with Annie! She is calm and attentive, and Annie clearly feels comfortable with her. Avri was also flexible and accommodating with my changing schedule, which I greatly appreciated. Highly recommend!”
“So happy I booked with Kayla to sit my pup while I was on vacation. She kept my mind at ease with all the pictures and the updates. I felt confident she would treat my dog right. I definitely plan on booking with her again in the near future.”
“We are so thankful to Erika and her family for looking after our Dexter so well! We got daily updates and pictures of all the fun he was having. Erika did an amazing job administering his medicine. It was such a relief to have Dexter in such good hands. Thank you so much!”
“Gerrie and her family did a great job watching my pup over Christmas. Koa was a bit sleepy the day I brought him home, so he must have had fun during his stay running around with her kids and dogs.”
“David was amazing! We needed a last-minute overnight boarding for our puppy, Teddy, and he was incredibly responsive from the start. He was friendly, communicative, and immediately put our minds at ease about leaving Teddy for the night. We truly appreciated his kindness and flexibility, and we'll definitely be using his services again. Highly recommend!”
“LaTasha is very pleasant and was a joy to leave my pet with. She shared updates regularly, as requested and I look forward to Pepper staying with her again someday.”
“Thank you so much!! Very helpful and Bella misses you guys already! She cried in the car as we pulled away from your house when I picked her up”
“Queeny provided a safe and welcoming home away from home for our two dogs. She sent us photos or videos every day to show that the dogs were healthy and happy, and we could tell that the dogs were stress-free when we came to collect them. We like the fact that there was an enclosed yard for them to run in, and that they were the only dogs in the home. We will definitely use Queeny again!”
“I’ve been trusting Summer to care for my little buddy whenever I need, for almost a year now, Summer and her family are just amazing. I don’t use anyone else. I highly recommend”
“Elizabeth was great communicating and letting us know the status of our dog Chico. We were very please with her care and services. Looking forward to booking her again!”
“We were a first time Rover user. Our meet and greet was successful and we felt that Katie would take care of our baby. Lucky is older and has health issues but that wasn't an issue with Katie. Our dog got along very well with her and her dog so we felt comfortable enough to let him have a sleep over there. Katie knew we were helicopter parents so she made sure to keep us posted on how he was doing and that he got his meds along with many pictures showing him relaxed and enjoying his new friends. The next morning we picked up one tired but happy baby. He slept a lot when he got home but that means he had fun. We recommend Katie as she was great with our baby.”
“I’m so happy that I found Suzanne to watch my pup while I went on vacation. She was very responsive and proactively sent me updates and pictures during his stay. Highly recommend”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your postal code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighbourhood.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Emeryville home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favourite hang-out spots in your Emeryville
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
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.
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.
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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
