“Daniel was great with Nila and very engaging. She’s a young, energetic puppy and loves attention and that’s exactly what he gave her. Looking forward to having him come by for another visit with our pup.”
About: I've been a pet lover for decades and they love my energy. I'm a calm, reliable, and attentive pet owner and I'd love to show your pets the same attention. If you're looking for a dog walker and/or pet sitter who is punctual, communicative, and will treat your pet like family, reach out for a meet and greet. I have availability between 8am-10:30am on weekdays and typically all day on weekends. I will keep my calendar updated if I have increased availability for holidays and special occasions. Attention to detail is my specialty and I'm happy to follow instructions left for caring for your pet during house visits. Every pet is different and I'm happy to learn all their quirks and habits!

“My dog loved Kerry-Ann the moment they met each other. She's a very experienced pet sitter the moment you meet her and she will give updates about your pet to ease your mind. Highly recommended.”
“Shenley took great care of the pets while we are away. Her photos made it clear that the pets loved her and were happy to see her. I will definitely hire Shenley again if we go on a short trip!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Hayley always made me feel completely comfortable and gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands. I really trusted her to take care of him, and it was obvious how much she genuinely enjoyed spending time with him. My dog absolutely loves playing with her, and I could tell he was happy and comfortable in her care. I also really appreciated the photo updates she left for me, because it was so nice to see him having fun and know how he was doing while I was away. I’m so grateful for how well she cared for him and would happily have her look after him again. 🐾❤️”
About: Hi my name is Bethany! I’m a registered nurse who works in Whitby and Oshawa and lives in Pickering. I can house sit or take your little family member for walks as needed. I’m available during the day to pop by or for overnight! Thank you for considering me and I hope to hear from you in the future! When working in Whitby I can pop out during my shifts but when in Oshawa I am unable to leave work so I try to mark those days as unavailable. I am not able to accommodate having pets in my home due to the two sassy ladies I have here. But I am able to accommodate coming to your home as needed.
“Shamika always does an awesome job taking care of my three cats. I always get pics and updates. This includes two senior cats, and one that also needs two types of medication twice a day. I never hesitate to recommend Shamika to take care of your little furry ones.”

About: I am a lifelong pet lover who has been a proud owner of cats and dogs for over 15 years. My passion for animals began in childhood and has only grown stronger with time. I believe that pets are an integral part of the family and should be treated with love, respect, and care. Experience: I have owned pets for over 15 years and have extensive experience caring for cats and dogs. Throughout the years, I have provided my pets with daily exercise, proper nutrition, and plenty of affection. I have also dealt with various health issues and emergencies, including administering medication, treating wounds, and taking my pets to the vet. As a part-time pet sitter, I integrate pet care into my schedule by setting aside specific blocks of time each week to devote to my clients' pets. I make sure to communicate with pet owners about their pet's needs and schedule, so I can plan accordingly. For example, if a pet needs to be fed at a specific time, I will ensure that I am available during that window. I also try to be flexible and willing to work around the schedules of both the pet and the owner. Overall, while pet care is not my full-time job, I take my role and work hard to ensure that each pet receives the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure to create a safe and comfortable environment for them. This may include setting up a designated space for them to sleep, eat, and play, and ensuring that the area is clean and free of any potential hazards. I provide them with food and water as needed, and make sure that they receive plenty of exercise and attention throughout the day. Depending on the pet, I may also need to administer medication or tend to any special needs they have. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow any specific instructions provided by the owner and make sure to maintain their routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding them at the specified times, taking them for walks or playtime, and providing them with any necessary medication or treatment. I also make sure to keep the living space clean and tidy, including cleaning litter boxes or picking up after the pet on walks. Throughout my time with the pet, I provide them with love and attention to ensure that they feel comfortable and at ease in their surroundings. In both situations, I keep open communication with the pet owner to provide updates on how their pet is doing and address any concerns they may have. My goal is to provide a safe and nurturing environment for the pets in my care and to ensure that their physical and emotional needs are met to the best of my ability.
About: Hi! I'm a huge animal lover with experience caring for both dogs and cats. I love making pets feel safe, happy, and spoiled with lots of love, playtime, walks and cuddles while you're away. I treat every furry friend like my own and always make sure they get the care and attention they deserve. I work from home which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attenntive pet care throughout the day. You can feel confident your furry friends are in good hands while you're away. I create a safe,calm and trusting environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I pay close attention to their routines and follow care instructions carefully while providing a clean and stress-free environment.
“I contacted Farah pretty much last minute to look after my cat for 5 days. She responded promptly and quickly accepted my request! She did everything I requested and more! She kept Luna's area clean and tidy. She even left catnip for my cat on the last day. She was attentive and I think she did a fabulous job. Although my cat is on the shy side, she still tried to get her comfortable with her. She even stayed an extra 40 minutes! She was always on time and messaged me with photos and updates, which I really appreciated. If I ever need someone to look after Luna in the future, it will definitely be Farah!”
About: I previously lived in a country where there were many stray cats and dogs and I would always care for them. I own one dog now and I would give my life for him. I know how hard it is to find a good reliable sitter, but I promise if you trust me with your dog, I’ll take amazing care of them. Dogs aren’t just our pets, they’re our family. I’m currently working from home which means I’m home 24/7. I work till five but I have two teens who both love dogs and take good and well care of our own. I’m not typically busy but when I am, just know your dogs are in good hands with my darling children. We’ve had our dog for almost three years and both of them have experience taking care of their own and other dogs, including walking, bathing, and feeding other dogs. I have a huge fenced yard and one fur baby your dog can play with! If your dog is someone that can’t be with another pet, no worries, we can always separate the two. Our garage is almost as big as our home and if that’s the case I have no problem with placing my own in the garage with the care of one of my children. If you’re wondering if your pet will be bored, please don’t! My children are very caring with dogs and they are always willing to play or go on a long walk, as am I! I know how hard it can be to trust someone with your fur baby, but I promise if you put yours under my care, I will love and treat them as my own.
“This was my first time using this service. Zoe did a wonderful job getting to know my dog. She took really good care of her and stayed in touch to set my mind at ease the entire time. Thanks Zoe till next time.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 14.

I am available Mondays through Thursdays most of the day but I'm very flexible with my schedule in case some special needs require accomodation. One day in advance will suffice I have experience with all breeds, I'm very active and can adapt to your pet needs and schedules. I focus on one dog at a time
About: I spent 12 years caring for my family cat and learned how to keep pets safe, calm, and happy. I’m patient, responsible, and committed to excellent care. I work full‑time, but I’m available for pet care from Thursday to Saturday and can accept same‑day bookings. On Wednesdays, I’m available after 6 PM. If voluntary time off is available at 3 PM, I can leave work then and arrive shortly after if a client needs care on Wednesday. My dad is allergic, so dogs can’t enter my home. I provide outdoor care with full supervision, using my fenced backyard and dog‑friendly indoor break spots.
About: I’ve grown up with farm animals and never been without pets. I’ve had puppies and kittens born and raised in my care and I really understand their needs - especially when left with strangers.

I treat your babies like my own. I am with them all day/night and sleep on the couch with them so they feel safe and secure. They are let out many times a day and get lots of cuddles and attention.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Glen Grove
Farah was great! She kept in touch with each visit. She asked great questions and showed concern when she noticed difference with Pentax. She played with Pentax during every visit and he seemed very comfortable with her. I will definitely try to book her in future as she did a great job!
Cheryl is an absolutely our go-to sitter! This was our second time booking her for Daisy and Lily, and once again, she exceeded every expectation. She kept us thoroughly updated with photos and videos during every single visit, making sure our girls got plenty of playtime, attention, and their favourite treats. Cheryl goes above and beyond with thoughtful details, from keeping an eye on their water fountain to cleaning up unexpected messes and even changing the litter box right before we got home. Coming back to two happy, completely relaxed cats made our trip entirely stress free. We cannot recommend Cheryl highly enough and will definitely continue booking her in the future!
Shenley was a godsend when I needed a pet sitter for our two dogs last month. She gave me great vibes since our first conversation. She came to do a meet and greet and then a test walk upon our request and was so understanding of my anxiety about leaving our babies for a long period. The dogs loved her so much when we were away and looked well taken care of when we returned. I had to revise our schedule a couple of times and she was generous with her time to accommodate us. I can’t say enough good things about her. She is going to be our repeat sitter for sure.
Khadija was a fantastic pet sitter for our Pentax! She thoughtfully added water to his wet food to help keep him hydrated during the warmer weather. By the end of her stay, Pentax had really warmed up to her, and it was clear that he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We couldn't be happier with the care she provided!
Qian D. (AKA Erin) is amazing and the best cat sitter you can possibly get. She communicated everything promptly from the beginning; during her visits, she played with our little cat, took care of everything and went above and beyond, and submitted a thorough report with photos etc. I highly recommend her and will use her help again, when needed. Thanks Erin.
We had such an amazing experience with Danielle. As first time doggie owners, we were nervous leaving our 4 month old pup with someone new, as he has been us since 9 weeks. But Danielle made the experience less stressful. She was very understanding, sent lots of videos and update of our little guy. Staying with Danielle he felt as though he was at home. She made him feel welcomed and he was super excited. I would 10000 percent book Danielle again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Many sitters respond to requests in under an hour. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once.
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.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s 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 pet’s 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 sitter’s 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 Glen Grove 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 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 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.
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, your payment method is charged 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. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
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.
