We highly recommend Suzie as a pet sitter! She did an exceptional job looking after our two fur babies. Our 12 year old is not the easiest to please but she had a great time with Suzie, playing at her house. Suzie administered her meds twice a day like a champ. Our 4 year old took advantage snuggling with Suzie day and night. Suzie is a caring, diligent and loving person, so with her, your pet is in excellent hands!!!

Jessica is amazing! She has watched my Finn a couple times and he absolutely loves her. She sends me picture updates and just little check ins so I know what he has been up to. I can not recommend her enough. The fact that my dog gets excited to see her says it all!

Luna had a wonderful time staying with Victoria's family and their two dogs. I think she was a little sad to go home! We enjoyed receiving the pictures and updates on our trip. Would happily recommend Victoria as a great sitter.

We left Ava with Sonya for five weeks, and are very happy with the results. Sonya and her family took great care of Ava, and we saw some lovely pictures of her playing in the snow and then snoozing on her bed. We'll be back!

About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages from playful puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats who need extra patience and gentle care. I’m experienced with walks, playtime, feeding routines, medications, and even basic puppy training. What sets me apart is the genuine love and attention I give each pet as if they were my own. Thats why i keep my rates affordable. I believe quality pet care shouldn’t come at a high price. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while giving you peace of mind. I am available on the weekends and some weekday evenings. Always feel free to ask for any date because my school schedule is subject to change and i may have time any day of the week for your pets 🙂 I have a big yard and a sweet and friendly dog. We have a large crate if needed and live on a quiet street with quiet neighbors.

Meg was great with our golden girls! It was the first time for us using Rover. Our first booking got cancelled near last minute and Meg was super responsive and jumped right in. She was very patient with our girls as they got used to her lovely lab Sunny (who is a sweetheart!). The girls were well loved, walked, and comfortable. And it showed in the photos! Highly recommend Meg to anyone needing a home away from home for their pups!

We’re so happy! First time using the Rover app and struck gold. Giulia is a wealth of dog knowledge. We were very impressed with all the ways she goes over and above to ensure your pet is properly cared for. We never worried thanks to her detailed updates. We will use her services again. Our big pup was very loved!

David and Emma were fantastic with our dog, Stanley. He has quite a few quirky routines and specific needs, and they took excellent care of him and followed everything perfectly. They truly went above and beyond to make sure he was happy and well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to have them look after Stanley again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.

About: Very comfortable with medication administration and any special needs your dog or puppy may need. Nurse by profession with a great love for all animals. I’m available from 5pm Friday until Monday morning 8am full care. If you have other needs through the week please message to discuss - here to help in any way with your pet care needs. My golden retriever Wilson both has free rein of the home and comfortable in his kennel. I would prefer kennel trained but if well mannered - fine to have free in the house.

About: What sets me apart is the calm, structured, home environment I provide. I only take 2–3 small to medium dogs at a time, so your dog gets real attention—not a crowded, chaotic setting. I have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor play and bathroom breaks, plus I’m home often so dogs aren’t left alone for long periods. I focus on keeping dogs relaxed, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I’m experienced with: dogs who need a quieter space Crate training (I have a large crate available if preferred) Multi-dog supervision with safe introductions and monitoring Basic routine consistency (feeding, walks, rest times) Inside, dogs have cozy spots to relax, and I keep things clean and organized. I also send regular photo updates, so you always know how your dog is doing. My goal is simple: your dog feels like they’re staying in a safe, loving home—not a kennel. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I own a local business that is fully staffed, which allows me to be home most of the day. I’m not tied to a 9–5 schedule, so I’m able to give dogs consistent attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. My routine includes regular outdoor time in my fully fenced yard, walks, feeding on your dog’s schedule, and plenty of relaxed indoor time. Because I’m home so often, dogs are rarely left alone and can settle into a calm, low-stress environment. I’ve built my schedule specifically to support pet care, so your dog isn’t just being “fit in”—they’re part of my daily routine and receive consistent, attentive care from morning to evening. I provide personalized, in-home care designed to give each dog a calm, safe, and comfortable experience—very different from a high-volume or kennel-style setting. I intentionally limit bookings to just 2–3 small to medium dogs at a time, so every dog receives focused attention and consistent supervision. Care in my home is structured around your dog’s routine, including daily walks, regular time in my fully fenced backyard, and relaxed indoor living in a clean, cozy space. Dogs are treated like part of the household, with access to comfortable lounging areas and a low-stress environment where they can settle in naturally. I take a thoughtful, hands-on approach to introductions and group dynamics, ensuring dogs are compatible and comfortable. I closely monitor behavior and can provide separation or crating if preferred, always prioritizing safety and your dog’s individual needs. Because I’m home most of the day, dogs are rarely left alone and receive consistent care, attention, and supervision from morning through evening. You’ll also receive regular photo and video updates, so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is to offer a premium, home-based experience where your dog feels secure, relaxed, and genuinely cared for—not just looked after.

About: What sets me apart is my deep love for animals and my personalized approach to every pet I care for. I have hands-on experience with everything from energetic puppies needing basic training to gentle, patient care for senior pets with special needs. I understand that no two pets are the same, and I pride myself on building trust—both with your pet and with you. Whether it’s administering medication, reinforcing positive behaviors, or just giving the best belly rubs, I’m here to make sure your furry family member feels safe, happy, and loved. I’m a nurse who works shift work. I work 4 days on and then have 5 days off. Each week varies on availability but I’m very flexible for the most part. I am able to provide all services in both week days and weekends. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I do everything I can to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. In your home, I make sure they stay comfortable in their familiar space—feeding, walking, playing, and cuddling just like you would. If they’re staying with me, I create a safe, cozy environment where they can relax and feel part of the family. I stick closely to any instructions you provide and always give plenty of love, attention, and updates so you can feel totally at ease while you’re away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Hantsport on Rover is $72.15 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 34 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hantsport. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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

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.
