About: I provide calm, reliable care tailored to each pet’s needs, with experience in owning cats, dogs and birds throughout my life. I currently have a rescued Croatian Sheepdog named Cassie. Cassie was rescued from an abusive environment when she was 2 so I have experience in calming and caring for anxious rescue dogs. I’ve had Cassie for almost 6 years now and it’s been incredible watching her become confident and truly just being a dog. I’m a professional soccer player taking a break for 5-6 months to spend time with my family in Toronto so I have nothing but free time in these coming months to care for animals. Right now I’m staying at my mom’s house in the inner suburbs of Toronto with a fenced backyard and park across the street for a perfect environment for walking dogs.
“Monika is excellent with my new puppy. She is more knowledgeable about puppy training than I am and is working with Riley on all sorts of behaviours and commands. She is caring and reliable and I highly recommend her.”

About: Our family owned 3 dogs. We had also 2 hamsters and aquarium with fishes. Sometimes our friends left their pets with us. We love pets and know how to take care of them. I plan my schedule around walks, feeding, and quality time, so pets get plenty of attention and are never left alone for long. I’m flexible and can adjust to your pet’s usual routine to keep things consistent. I make sure pets feel safe, relaxed, and cared for—whether in my home or yours. I stick to their usual routine and follow any instructions you leave. I keep a close eye on them and always prioritize safety. You’ll also get updates and photos so you know how they’re doing.
About: With over 4 years of dedicated experience, I specialize in the unique needs of small and medium breeds (under 40 Ibs). I understand that "little" doesn't mean "low energy"— whether it's a spirited Frenchie or a sensitive Maltese, I provide a calm, controlled environment where your pup can feel secure without the stress of larger, more boisterous dogs. My day is built around high-attention care. We start with fresh water, breakfast, and a gentle walk or backyard playtime to get those little legs moving. Throughout the day, I incorporate frequent potty breaks and short play sessions to keep energy levels balanced. Evenings are all about wind-down time and plenty of cuddles, mimicking the cozy home routine your pet is already used to. When your pet stays with me, my home becomes their "home away from home." I maintain a strictly small-dog-friendly environment, prioritizing safety by keeping floors clear and exits secure. Your pup will enjoy supervised play and cozy rest areas without the chaos of a crowded kennel. For sittings in your home, my priority is minimizing stress by sticking to your pet's established habits. I follow your specific feeding schedules, walking routes, and "potty" cues to keep their day predictable. I also provide detailed home security-bringing in mail and watering plants-so you can travel with total peace of mind.
About: I have over 4 years of hands-on experience caring for pets and a genuine love for animals, especially cats. I provide a calm, safe, and clean environment where cats can feel comfortable and relaxed while their owners are away. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter box maintenance, playtime, and giving each cat the attention they need based on their personality. Whether your cat is playful or shy, I’m patient and attentive to make sure they feel secure and cared for at all times. I specialize in cat care and understand how important routine and a low-stress environment are for them. My home is quiet and ideal for cats who prefer a peaceful space. I make sure each cat has their own comfortable area, clean litter, fresh food and water, and daily interaction. I’m attentive to behavior changes and can follow any specific instructions you provide, including dietary needs or medication if required. Your cat will be treated with love, patience, and respect—just like my own. I have a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home, which allows me to give your cat consistent care and attention throughout the day. I can accommodate different routines and make sure your cat is never left alone for long periods.
About: I have been around dogs my entire life and I know how to play with, care for, and look after dogs. Recently I have looked after two dogs this summer for pay with glowing reviews I currently have a very flexible schedule, allowing me to accommodate all types of bookings. While I am pursuing full-time employment opportunities, I am fully committed to providing reliable pet care Dogs will be monitored all the time I like to have my eyes on the dogs at all times to make sure they aren’t getting into anything they aren’t supposed to. I will gladly be in the backyard with the dogs to ensure they don’t escape through any sort of openings in fences
“A huge thank you to Olga for watching my fur babies over the holidays! She was wonderful with my cats and my home. My cats are a little shy and she was able to get them out of their shells and relax! I would highly recommend Olga and hope to work with her again in the future!”
About: Dedicated animal lover my entire life. Having grown up with dogs and cats, and raising three of my own, I understand the unique needs of every pet. I’m experienced in feeding, walking, and providing plenty of affection to pets for friends and family. I’m patient, reliable, and will treat your fur babies exactly like my own.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have been professionally walking them since I was 14. I also have been working at a doggy daycare which includes responsibility such as dog walking, dog boarding, and dog training. I have experience with dogs as big as Great Danes to as small as Pomeranian's. I currently work part time as a daycare attendant/dog walker at a doggy daycare! Most of my days are short and involve early morning so there is no worry of your pet being left alone! I have a small yard with turf and an 8 foot fence so no dogs will be able to jump over. My house is very minimalistic and clean so there is never any worry of your dog getting into any trash or bumping into anything that may hurt him/her.
About: I have had dogs sinced 2010. Currently we have a 15 year old husky who is still quite playful outside but spends most of the day sleeping due to advanced age. We are used to frequent walks and don't mind loud singers 😁 I have Sundays and Mondays off and my husband only works part-time from home so someone is home most of the time and we are pretty flexible. I have a fenced backyard, a human- and dog-friendly Husky to keep your fur baby company. I can crate your dog if you prefer. We have a home where they will be comfortable. We can send you pictures daily so you know your baby is safe.
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Malaika provided. She was attentive, detailed-oriented, and clearly experienced with puppies. She was also a pleasure to communicate and was very friendly, responsive snd professional. And my puppy adored her, which says everything. I highly recommend.”
About: I have recently graduated from the Animal Care program at Sheridan College. There I learned basic first-aid and CPR, training/restraint/handling technics for both dogs and cats. I grew up with both cats and dogs, my entire life. I have also worked at doggy daycares and currently working at Pet Valu. I believe my combination of knowledge, compassion and love for animals sets me apart from others. This is my full time job. I have a few clients that I do daily walks and drop-in visits for so I am away for 3-4 hours in the morning. As I live in an Apartment I will not be providing care in my home, I also have a cat with FIV and cannot bring any new pets around as a safety precaution. I am available to provide care in clients home as directed.
About: I grew up around dogs, have had dogs all my life and absolutely love them. My mother and aunt were dog breeders, and my uncle was a Chief Inspector for the OSPCA. I am also a dog handler at dog shows in Ontario and have been taking care of dogs for over 20 years. I currently have 2 snuggly pomeranians, who "think" they rule this household, but obviously provide daily laughs and humor. Your fur kids are in good hands and will be loved as though they are my own. They will enjoy frequent breaks and walks as well as cuddles during their time with me. I look forward meeting you and your fur kids to discuss their unique needs as well as our time together.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Etobicoke
It was my first night out - Pepper was in the best hands. Melissa was happy to do a meet and greet first, and tonight she was on time, a good communicator, and even took some pictures. I would not hesitate to have her care for Pepper in a second. Thank you Melissa! I was able to enjoy my rare night out because of you!
Rosalia was a fantastic pet sitter for our dear eldery dog Ella! She was prompt, took great care of her and provided lots of great photos and updates during the visits. Rosalia is a very caring and compassionate person and Ella loves her. We are so pleased to have found Rosalia and will book her again.
Jose did an excellent job! Jose helped out with Drop In visits with my geriatric Bichon while I was out of the country for a week. My pup was walked, fed and tended to plus little accidents cleaned up. In addition, Jose kept a log book going for me to refer to when I got home detailing my Pup's behaviour, eating habits and movements with each visit. My access to wifi and cell were limited so the log book really helped out when I returned home. I have a record of how my Pup was doing with each visit. Jose also kept in touch throughout the day with my BF that was in charge of my Pup. This was a real challenge for all of us including my Pup since everything was a new experience and everything worked out really well! I highly recommend Jose to look after your Fur Friend.
I had a wonderful experience with Czarina! She was amazing with my pup and it was clear right away that he felt very comfortable with her. She was very communicative, kept me updated, and made sure he got a nice midday break while I was away at work. It gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in such good hands. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Etobicoke stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 Etobicoke 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.

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 .

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. 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.
