Raye was our first pet-sitter ever and I couldn't be happier with the service provided. She met my dog prior to the booking, introducing my dog to hers and making sure they got along - which made me feel more confident that it was a good fit. Throughout the stay, Raye keep me posted about how things went and I could see that my dog was having a blast! After picking her up, she was so tired from all the play and super calm the day after she was back home. Thank you very much, Raye!

Dominique was great right from our meet and greet!! Both me and my pup Rupert felt comfortable with her from the start. It was my first time boarding Rupert and I was a little nervous, but Dominique left me with no concerns about having him stay with her. She was attentive to the instructions I left about Ruperts care, and for a somewhat nervous dog he sure seemed comfortable with her! I would definitely recommend Dominique to help you meet your pups needs!

Lauren & Lukas have an amazing yard for dogs to play in. They kept me updated daily with photos and videos and it seems like Millie had a great time with them and Luna! Thanks again 🥰

Dominique was fantastic. Excellent and timely communication. She was enthusiastic and confident in her ability to take care of Zeus. She was able to pick up and drop off which made our weekend getaway so much easier. I had no worries. I definitely recommend her and will book with her again.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Golden 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 Golden

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 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.

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 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.
