“Inci is awesome. She communicated before, during and after the visit, sent lots of pictures. My dog got lots of loving from Inci and her fiancé. My home Was left spotless. All the dishes were done and away, the linens were washed and folded. She even cleaned up what I refer to as “messy corner”(that place where I just drop stuff until I have a chance to organize it). We will definitely be using Inci again. Thank you Inci.”

About: Hi! I'm Becca, an Early Childhood Educator with a love for caring for both children and animals. For the past three years, I worked as a full-time dog walker in downtown Toronto. At home, I have two dogs and three cats, so pet care is a big part of my everyday life. I'm passionate about rescuing animals in need and treating every pet as if they were my own. I recently moved back to my hometown after spending the past three years in Toronto as a full-time dog walker. My schedule is flexible, so I have lots of time to dedicate to pet care throughout the week. I really miss all of my furry clients in Toronto and can't wait to meet some new ones here! Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or overnight care, I'm happy to work with your schedule whenever I can. I know every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to stick to it so they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. Before each booking, I like to learn about their feeding schedule, exercise needs, personality, and any medications or special instructions. When I'm caring for pets in your home, I'll always respect your space and follow your care instructions closely. I also love sending regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and in good hands.
“I can't recommend Josephine enough—she was amazing! Before our 14-day trip, she met with us so Ollie could get comfortable, and he loved her from the start. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which we really appreciated. Josephine went above and beyond, even leaving our home cleaner than when she arrived. We wouldn't hesitate to book her again. Highly recommended!”

“Myriam was a pleasure to work with. Her genuine love for animals was evident from the start, and our dog, cat, goats, and chickens were all exceptionally well cared for during our absence. She provided regular updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We returned to a clean, well-maintained home and happy, relaxed pets. I would confidently recommend Myriam to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and professional pet sitter, and we will absolutely be booking with her again.”

“We are beyond happy and satisfied with Ashley’s service. It’s so comforting and good to know that our little Maggie is in such loving hands when we’re gone for any length of time. Anyone reviewing Ashley should not hesitate to see if she’s available to you - but US first…!”

About: Certainly! Here’s an extended version with a few more lines to make your answer more detailed and impressive: --- I have over 8 years of hands-on experience as a dedicated pet sitter, and I also care for two pets of my own — a playful dog and a senior cat — so I understand the daily needs, personalities, and quirks that make each pet unique. What sets me apart from other sitters is not just my experience, but my genuine love for animals and my ability to connect with them on a deeper level. I have worked with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments — from energetic puppies needing consistency and training, to older pets who require medication, mobility assistance, and extra TLC. I’m skilled in basic puppy training, crate training, leash manners, and socialization. I also have experience dealing with rescue animals and those with anxiety or behavioral issues, always using a gentle and reassuring approach. Pet safety is my top priority. I stay alert, follow detailed care instructions, and maintain regular communication with pet parents through updates and photos. I treat every animal as if they were my own — with love, patience, and respect. I work from Monday to Friday from 9 to 5.After that and before that I am available and I can sit with your pet at night Here’s a well-rounded answer to the **“Safety, trust & environment”** question, written from your perspective as an experienced cat sitter and pet sitter who may care for pets either in your own home or the client’s home: --- Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or my client’s, safety and trust are always my top priorities. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions precisely — including feeding schedules, medication, exercise routines, and any household rules their pet is used to. I take the time to learn each pet’s preferences and behaviors so I can provide a familiar, low-stress environment while their family is away. In my own home, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space that is free from hazards. I ensure secure windows and doors, use pet-safe cleaning products, and have separate, quiet areas available if a pet needs space or time to adjust. My own pets are well-socialized, and I carefully supervise all interactions to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I also provide regular updates, photos, and videos to build trust with pet parents, showing them that their pet is in good hands. Whether in my home or theirs, I aim to create a calm, caring, and secure environment where pets feel loved, safe, and stress-free.
About: 10 years plus experience with dogs. I teach commands. Better behaviours and socialization with other dogs. Your pets will be tired out and full of love in my care. I will send pictures and updates through my entire time with your babies. My apartment has a dog park right in the back of the building! I’m currently working part time so have plenty of time for your beautiful fur babies. There will be routine as I work from home and am able to leave the desk. I only work a few hours a day. Long walks and amazing socialization with all the other dogs in the home. I Will get your dogs to face their fears. I’m so excited to watch your fur babies
About: Hi! I’m a third year Queen’s University student who seriously misses having dogs around while I’m at school! Back home, I have six dogs of my own (yes, six lol! chaos, love, and fur everywhere), and I’ve fostered over 100 dogs throughout my lifetime with many different dog rescues. Basically, my life resume is just… dogs. I love pups of all ages, from high-energy puppies to sweet senior dogs who just want a slower stroll and some extra love. A few of my dogs have been through puppy school, where we both learned tricks, so I’m comfortable reinforcing basic training, routines, and good walking manners. I truly believe dogs are better than humans (no offence), and I treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether your pup needs a long adventure walk, a potty break, or just someone who genuinely loves being around dogs, I’ve got them covered. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and tail wags are always my top priority 🐾 Since I am a university student with a mix of in-person and online classes, that leaves me with lots of consistent free time between classes. My schedule doesn’t change week to week, and I’m free most weekends for walks, drop-ins, and quality pup time! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routines closely so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I have experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments, from playful puppies to gentle seniors, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. I prioritize safety on walks, keep spaces tidy, and provide regular updates and photos so owners can relax knowing their pup is in great hands:)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Gananoque on Rover is $79.92 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 129 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Gananoque. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Gananoque maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Gananoque walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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 Gananoque 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!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, identity check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
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.
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.
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.
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.
