“We are so grateful to Lianne for taking such great care of our cats. We trusted that they were in good hands when we went away, and they seemed very happy when we got home. Amazing communication!!! 10/10 :).”
“Norah is an excellent pet sitter. We were out of the country for 3 weeks and Norah provided excellent care for our cat. He became very attached to her and loved spending time getting brushed and scritches. She followed all instructions to a tee, stuck to his routine, sent us pictures everyday, communicated promptly if necessary, and everything was clean and tidy. I will be hiring Norah in the future. Our vacation was better knowing that our beloved pet was well looked after and cared for. Norah was wonderful.”
“We are so grateful to Gloria for taking such great care of our fur babies. We didn't have to worry about a thing while we were away!! She followed our directions to a tee, and the cats felt immediately comfortable with her. We were also pleasantly surprised that she cleaned our floor in the litter room. Would definitely hire again!! :)”
About: I’ve cared for my own dogs for years and have also helped friends and family with theirs, including large breeds. I genuinely love being around dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or just giving them attention and affection, I enjoy spending quality time with them and treating them like part of the family. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine alongside part-time work. I’m home regularly, and my husband works from home, so pets are never left alone. I make sure they get consistent feeding, playtime, attention and daily walks or exercise, depending on their needs and I can safely keep pets separated if needed for comfort. I provide a calm, safe environment and supervise pets closely at all times. I live in a spacious, pet-friendly apartment where dogs are welcome and comfortable. I have a friendly, well-trained 3-year-old Golden Retriever who loves playing with other dogs and is very gentle. I also have crates available if needed. Since my backyard isn’t fenced, pets are always safely leashed or tethered outside and are never left unattended.
“Kennedy was fantastic—she arrived right on time, kept me updated during and after her visit, and had great communication throughout. She was also very friendly and easy to work with. I’ll definitely be booking her again in the future!”
“Katie exceeded my expectations!! My kitties were well cared for and in good hands. She even did my dishes lol! I will definitely be reaching out to her to look after my pets in the future. I highly recommend!☺️”
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.
“We've booked Emily twice now and each time has gone swimingly well! Highly recommend her, except for when we go out on a vacation, then we want dibs lol Very good, reliable, and our cats are getting to know her too”
About: As a dedicated dog sitter, what sets me apart is my comprehensive approach to pet care. Beyond providing the essentials like feeding and exercise, I bring a wealth of experience in dog training. With a background in positive reinforcement techniques, I focus on enhancing your dog's obedience and social skills during their stay. This includes commands like sit, stay, and leash manners. Additionally, my keen understanding of canine behavior allows me to tailor the environment to your dog's preferences, minimizing stress and promoting a comfortable stay. Your furry friend will not only receive excellent care but also benefit from a learning and growth experience that will positively impact their behavior and interactions. I am current studying so I have plenty of time apart from college hours. I am totally free on week ends so I can take care and play with them. When caring for pets in my home, I create a comfortable environment with designated play and rest areas, following their routine closely. In clients' homes, I replicate routines while providing companionship and necessary tasks, ensuring pets are well-cared for and content.
About: I had cats most of my life and a dog for 6 years (all rescues, all now deceased). I am a mature, reliable and caring 58 year old with a post-graduate degree and have chosen to dedicate my retirement to animals - pet sitting, volunteering, and animal advocacy work. I have a wide open schedule as I am retired with very few commitments. I love animals and want to dedicate all my available time to caring for them. I will spend time petting, playing, and feeding your fur baby as well as cleaning up after them. I'm also happy to water plants and take in mail or any other reasonable service that may be required.
About: I’ve had my dog Billy since I was 16! I put in a lot of training and work with him and he became my service dog. Now I’ve been around lots of other dogs and can’t wait to meet even more! I’m home every day, all day so I have plenty of time to spend with any new friends spending time here! We always spend time outside morning, afternoon and night, with lots of needed in between potty breaks. Walks around the neighbourhood are a fun time! Let me know if you don’t want that and that no problem. I have a yard but it isn’t fenced in. Long lines or leashes are used. I have two dogs who love spending time with new friends! Crates are welcome and have their own area. Enrichment activities are our favourite way to pass time but we can’t wait to figure out your pups

I live in a small house with a back yard and a park just around the corner.

I live in a townhouse, my apartment has its own part of backyard, my neighborhood is calmed and perfect for walks, volume of traffic is very low.
“Dan was super kind and flexible, and really helped us out when we weren't able to find another sitter for our area. He provided detailed photo updates which was unexpected but very much appreciated. Would give 10 stars if that were an option. Thanks Dan!”
About: I’ve grown up with and around dogs and always loved being around and taking care of them. Since 2024 I spent lots of time worthing with dogs of all ages and (mostly mixed) breeds at Petsave in lively. I found my joy in fostering and walking dogs of various sizes and temperaments. I’ll be able to help you no matter if your dogs needs a quick walk to relive themselves or even on longer walks up to 2 hours ( up to 8 km). I work early morning shifts and get home shortly after lunch, meaning I can take your pups out anywhere from 1:30-8 pm Monday to Saturday or anytime on Sunday (even when the weather is less than ideal) I have a fenced in yard with two friendly 70-80 llb mixed breed dogs. The fence is between 5-6 ft tall to ensure even escape artists stay contained and safe. With two of my own at home I have gathered plenty of supplies and techniques to safely secure and walk up to three dogs at once.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Greater Sudbury
Norah is the best. I loved seeing her interactions with my 2 cats. Even my cat who usually hides under the bed when strangers are in the house was out having his picture taken. I felt so at ease knowing that she was caring for my boys. She responded promptly to any messages I sent her. I will definitely book her again.
Excellent experience from start to finish. She did a meet-and-greet ahead of the stay, followed the care instructions exactly, and sent daily check-ins with photos that made being away much easier. Came home to two happy cats and everything in order. I'd book her again without hesitation and recommend her to anyone.
We really loved having Jake spend a couple hours with our dog, he was very kind, he paid close attention to detail and he clearly loves animals. He sent us updates and pictures while he was here, and was available to help us out with less than a weeks notice. Thank you Jake!
Emily was amazing! This was my first time using Rover, and I felt that I was leaving my cat in good hands. She took the time to play with her and give her some love as I would. She was also great at providing updates and communicating when a severe snow storm essentially shut down the city which was appreciated.
Sarah is wonderful and made me feel at ease being away from my girls, knowing how well she connected with them and how serious she takes her role. Not only did she do the essentials, she also spent extra play time with my girls and washed their food bowls. The notes she left me to say how the visits went warmed my heart. I am so grateful to have found her💝

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 64 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Greater Sudbury. About 88% of Greater Sudbury 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.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Greater Sudbury stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 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!
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 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.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements.

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.
