“I had the pleasure of having Lianne stay at my house to look after my dog and couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. From our first message to the stay, her professionalism and genuine love for animals was evident. She kept me updated with regular photos and messages, giving me peace of mind. Highly recommend Lianne!”
About: I’ve raised everything from large Labs and Dalmatians to my current friendly, vaccinated 2-year-old Chihuahua- Muffy. We live in a cozy, one-level home with a decent-sized backyard and a great park just steps away! Whether your pup needs big-dog exercise or small-dog snuggles, I treat every guest like family and strictly follow your routine to ensure they feel safe and right at home. I shih-tzu not, your dog will have a paws-itively great time! I am a firm believer in positive reinforcement and am happy to support any training routines you have in place. Whether it’s reinforcing basic cues like 'sit' and 'stay' or working on leash manners during our park visits, I’ll ensure your pup stays consistent while you're away. Since I'm home all day, I can provide the frequent, short training sessions and immediate praise that help good habits stick. Whether your dog prefers their own crate for a peaceful night’s sleep or likes to snooze on a plush dog bed, I’m happy to follow whatever setup makes them feel most comfortable. Because my home is a one-level 'safe zone,' I can easily keep their favorite spot nearby so they always feel like part of the family. I provide a supervised environment where your pet is never left alone, ensuring they stay happy, relaxed, and secure throughout their stay.
About: I have always been around dogs my whole life, almost everyone in my circle has one! I love animals and spending time outside so this is the perfect opportunity! I have good patience in terms of puppies, teaching tricks and letting your dog sniff around! A daily walk is a dogs favourite part of the day and I would love to be the one to give them that! I am currently working part time as a server, which is amazing so I work most evenings and weekends. I am also a student studying in the Medical Laboratory Technician program so I’d love to spend my free time outside and with dogs! I have a friendly medium sized dog that I live with who is fully trained. He is taken for 2-4 walks a day and taken to parks to run around! In a clients home, I would ask to be walked through the home and shown which doors to use. I would also ask which areas within the neighborhood the dog likes best to visit on walks. I understand the anxiety when it comes to leaving your dog and/or house in the care of another so I would treat both with the best care possible.
“Dan is great! My dogs loved him and were so excited when he came to watch them. He took great care of them and cleaned up after them nicely, too. I felt so at ease with my dogs in his care. I'd book him again in a heartbeat!”
“Naren helped to home sit Tango while we were gone on a vacation. He took care of Tango like his own and we did not have to worry about anything. He was very caring and gave Tango a good time while we were away. He also helped to make sure the house was kept neat and tidy”
“Where do I start? After a long search, we finally found the best sitter for our dogs! Jake was very accommodating to my 2 dogs & 3 cats! He stayed with them at our home while we were away. He is absolutely trustworthy,responsible and you can tell immediately that he is the perfect care giver for your pets. I received so many photo updates all through the weekend making me feel so relaxed and enjoyed my time. I have had terrible experiences with sitters before but Jake is absolutely amazing and I don’t think that we would ever trust anyone else with our pets/home. Thank you Jake! Will definitely be back!”
About: I’ve been around cats and dogs since I was young, and can handle them during the adjustment period, and if they need some encouragement to come out. I’m a timely communicator with owners, and can handle things such as feedings, cleaning, and just companionship in general :). I’m a part-timer looking for some flexible work as a full-time student. I have weekends and most Fridays off, and can work around my class times most days. I can provide timely feedings, companionship, frequent communication with the owners, and can clean up after them. I’m willing to adapt to what’s need :)
“5/5 Stars – Exceptional care for Snooki and our home! Kennedy recently house-sat for us overnight while we were away, and as always, she was absolutely fantastic. She is incredibly reliable and always punctual. From the moment she arrived, she kept us in the loop with initial check-ins and provided updates throughout the stay, including some adorable pictures. Seeing Snooki so happy made it clear she felt like she was spending the night with her bestie! Beyond the pet care, Kennedy was professional, respectful, and left our home spotless—she took great care of everything, including cleaning up after herself in the kitchen and bedroom. I felt completely at ease knowing both Snooki and our home were in Kennedy’s care. We highly recommend her!”

About: I have experience with both cats and dogs, and appreciate spending quality time with them.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I bring to every pet I care for. I’m not just here to walk dogs — I treat each pet like family. I’m attentive to their needs, whether it’s high energy playtime or calm companionship. I have experience with both puppies (including leash training and basic commands) and senior dogs who may need a slower pace or extra care. Being gentle, observant, and trustworthy means your dog will always feel safe and happy with me. I'm also very reliable and flexible with timing, and I always make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule and truly enjoy spending my time with animals. I’m completely free on Wednesdays and available for evening care on Fridays and weekends, making it easy for me to give your dog the time, attention, and love they need. Whether it’s a walk, feeding, or playtime, I always make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and happy in my care. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. I follow the pet’s regular routine as closely as possible — including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions like medications or calming techniques. I keep the environment clean and calm, and I make sure pets feel secure and loved, especially when their owners are away. I also provide regular updates (photos and messages) so you feel confident knowing your pet is in caring and capable hands. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I always treat them with the same love and attention I would give my own.

We love Jake - he is amazing - reliable - loves dogs - updates with photos while you are away - has a great sense of humor - leaves your place clean as if he wasn’t there at all!!

Wow! Claudia was an absolutely incredible dog and house sitter. From the very beginning I could tell she was going to be a great fit for us, she was responsible and kind and communicative. She got along with my dogs so well and keenly observed when my senior dog came got a UTI and managed after hours vet care, virtual vet appointments, pharmacy visits all the while keeping me up to date! My house was sparkling when we got back, it's never been as clean as after her visit. I can't recommend Claudia enough!
Frankie provided excellent care for our two dogs in our home while we were out of the country. She was quick to offer a visit ahead of time to meet our elder boys, and provided updates throughout her stay with them. They were very well taken care of and she kept our home clean and tidy for our return. I would highly recommend Frankie, and will absolutely have her pet sit again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Greater Sudbury on Rover is $64.29 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 36 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Greater Sudbury. 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 Greater Sudbury 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 Greater Sudbury 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 Greater Sudbury 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.
