“Charles took amazing care of Mario! When we picked him up, Mario was happily tired out after all the playing. We were visiting Gananoque on a trip, and it was such a relief to have Charles look after him while we went on a cruise.”
About: I've been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends since I was 16, caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a slower pace and extra attention. I'm comfortable administering medications and following specific care instructions to help keep pets happy, healthy, and on their normal routine. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and give owners peace of mind knowing their pet is in good hands. I'm partially retired and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. As a former dog mom, I miss the companionship, walks, joy and love that dogs bring to everyday life, which is what inspired me to join Rover. Whether your dog needs a walk, company during the day, or extra attention while you're away, I'm able to provide reliable care and accommodate a variety of schedules. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and look forward to making them feel safe and comfortable. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding routines, feeding, medications, and any special needs. During walks, I pay close attention to my surroundings and your dog's comfort level to help ensure a safe and positive experience. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to build trust at their pace. My goal is to provide consistent, dependable care so both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident.
“Luke was great with Cow! She immediately started playing with her toys with him and that’s a rare occurrence with strangers. She was pooped after a day of walks with him and it was nice to know that she could get some exercise and some couch cuddles, the perfect balance for her. Luke was keen to oblige to all the picky requirements that a chihuahua has. 20/10 would leave Cow with Luke again! Thanks for being flexible with booking and for taking good care of her!”
“Another great visit for Jackson with Nicole. He was happy to see her and had a fun play day with her family and other guests staying for doggy day care. He was not stressed and was very content when we picked him up. Thanks Nicole for taking such good care of Jackson.”

“I booked Rose for my dog Luna and the experience overall was smooth and easy. Communication was friendly, scheduling was simple, and I appreciated the updates during the day. Luna came home happy and tired, which is always a good sign! Thank you for taking good care of her.”
“Paige and Vanessa took great care of my dog! They communicated often and updates were much appreciated. My dog was very content and happy which is awesome because he has some separation anxiety and I was worried about leaving him.”
“Daniel was so great watching my little guy Harvey! He really took the time to learn about Harvey’s walk schedule, what some of his favourite games are and you could tell he just really loves dogs!”
“Ana was very friendly, polite and knew exactly how to take care of my Chico. Definitely recommend her to anyone who need to leave their furbabies either for a few hours or a few days.”

About: I have taken care of many different types of cats and dogs over the years and can't wait to meet more. I provide high-end care for any pets in the Kingston area! For pets coming over to my home for care, I have one female golden, Sia, who gets along well with all animals.

I also have the back of my car setup for pets, should yours need to be transported somewhere.
“Graham and Laura took such great care of my little guy! And bonus - they tuckered him out so good he passed out on the drive home 🤣🤣🤣. Harvey can’t wait to hang out with them again!”
“Kirti was a friendly and warm caretaker who was good to Hannah. Hannah, being a shy doggie, loved her instantly, so I had no worries about entrusting her to Kirti. She also responded to my messages very quickly. Thank you so much, Kirti!”
About: I will take care of your pet as if it's mine, and I'm doing it just because i love then but can't have mine at this time. I have had my own cats and dog and I know them well. Thank you for trusting me, i will do my best to make you and your pet happy. I am a graduate student and my schedule is completely flexible during the summer. I just need to know 1 day in advance so i can plan my day. I am living in a relatively big apartment with an unfenced yard. Pets allowed everywhere and on bed. I don't have other pets, and I will be here until October.
About: I would love to take care of your pets, I’m responsible and I’m obsessed with taking care of them, so they are in good hands. Im available full time since I quit my job 3 months ago and I would like to do this as a full time job. The best job! The pets would be inside unless they have to pee or poo (for dogs haha) for cats I clean the litter of my cats daily and I’m very careful with what they eat or if they need something.
“Our dogs were with Heather for the day, they came home happy and tired. They had an amazing day. We would definitely have our dogs stay with Heather again. She gave us updates ( photos and videos) and her sweet dog Elphie was a great playmate. Thank you thank you Heather for welcoming and taking care of Archie and Delilah.”
“Saskia was wonderful! She gave sent us numerous photos and kept us updated through the day. We got updated through the day and she was very kind and friendly. We’ll definitely be using her again!”

Just wow - this couple provided so much love to our Boo. We had a drop off visit due to a bit of a pickle to find a sitter quickly, due to a cancellation and they provided assistance right away -which was truly appreciated. Their love of fur babies is really evident with toys and treats and lots of love. We highly recommend their care❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Gananoque on Rover is $31.08 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 77 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Gananoque. About 94% of Gananoque 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.
Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's leash and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalized care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Gananoque commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
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 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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in ON ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 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.
