“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn't have chosen better than Ruth! Ruth is just such a calm, caring person who we know loved our dog like her own. Our dog loves walks and he received nice long ones every day with Ruth. I think our pup was a bit spoiled with Ruth which we truly appreciated. We will choose Ruth again when we need the service and hope she will be available!”

“What can I say other than a fabulous care giver. Her two dogs bonded with my French bulldog and shipoo. They followed her around, they slept in her bed with her doggies. I have photos of them playing with my doggies. All four dogs had personalities that one matched one doggie of hers and same with the other. My dogs showed happiness to see me on pick up but my shipoo ran to me and back to Kelley. I saw them playing with their own toys I brought. Really the transition was not far off by how I take care of them. It was a pairing made in heaven. My doggies were on vacation too! Kelley deeply cared for my dogs welfare. So from one nurse (me), to another retired nurse, Kelley, you win the award of the year for best care. I bough to you. Bravo. Hope to see you again. Xoxo”

As a rescue, Morita is a little shy at first but naturally curious and because Sandra and her family gave her the time and space she quickly warmed up and had a fantastic stay. Thank you Sandra!”

“Copper's second stay with Jennifer and Brent was as successful as the first. Copper had a great time - And got spoiled by all the attention and special treatment -- Like getting to sleep on the sofa! Jennifer and Brent also took him hiking one day which we know he loves. We will certainly leave Copper with them again on our next trip to St. Catharines. Thanks for all you do for him and us, guys! Take care. Ron and Jen.”

“Naomi & Sam were amazing sitters for our 3 yr old (85 pound) Bernese Mountain dog. Our dog was able to stay with them for 6 nights and while she was with them she got lots of walks, great play time with their dog and kids and Naomi sent us pictures of all of her adventures every day. Having a large breed dog in your home is a challenge for many people, and this family was awesome. I would highly recommend using Naomi and Sam for a short or long stay with your dog - they were GREAT hosts. We will be booking with them again for sure.”

Ruth and her husband were fantastic with Nalah! This was her first time away with strangers, but having a meet-and-greet beforehand made all the difference—she was so excited to walk right back through their door for her stay. Ruth kept us updated with check-ins and photo, which gave us complete peace of mind during our trip. She was also so thoughtful in sharing details at pickup about Nalah navigating their interior stairs (likely a bit of house-rule confusion or senior hesitation!). We couldn’t be happier with the care Nalah received and would highly recommend Ruth to anyone looking for a sitter.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Grimsby

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Grimsby is $57 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $40 and $71 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

sitters in Grimsby have an average of 13 years of experience. Each sitter has their own unique experience and skill sets for different types of pets. You can find details of each sitter’s potential certifications and abilities, such as pet first-aid or senior pet experience, listed on their profile. Look at other pet parent reviews and repeat pet parent booking rates for an idea of their pet care exp erience.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

You and your Grimsby sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
