“Very happy! Elizabeth came to meet Jack a week prior. Used for the first time this past weekend and great! Day 2 Elizabeth (who asked first) brought her dog since we have a big yard so the dogs could have a good play. Jack tired out and can’t wait to see Tina and Elizabeth again!”
“Unbelievably awesome! Even with a dog that is large (!!) and can be difficult with new people! Helped with a last minute booking and saved my life or at least a lot of stress. Thank you so much for your help!”
About: Hi, I’m Jenn, I live with my better half, Kevin and our two kids. We’re lifelong dog lovers with over 20 years of experience caring for our own pups. We know how important it is to find someone you trust with your dog — someone who will treat them like family. That’s exactly the kind of care we offer. You can rest assured your pet will be well taken care of, safe, and having a fantastic time! We specialize in small dog sitting in our home in Dundas and offer dog walking for dogs of all sizes. Our cozy detached home is in a quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood and features a fully fenced yard, perfect for playtime and relaxing outdoor time. Jenn is available for weekday walks or drop ins, and we offer dog sitting at our home (just check our availability!). When we’re sitting, we only welcome one dog at a time to ensure your pup gets plenty of attention and one-on-one care. We also provide walks every two hours to keep them happy and active. Safety is always our top priority. We always do a meet & greet before every stay to make sure your dog is comfortable with us, our kids, and our home. Our dog Berkley has passed away after a long and happy life, so there are no other dogs in the household currently. Dogs are always leashed on walks outside our fenced yard, and we’ll follow any care instructions you provide — down to the last detail. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out — we’re happy to chat! 🦮 New to Rover? Let us know and you can get $20 off your first booking. We look forward to meeting you and your pup! Jenn is currently a stay at home mom, with kids in school and has availability from 9am - 3pm and some evenings during the week for dog walking or visits. We’re also available evenings and weekends for dog boarding. Depending on her availability, and your needs we’ll work together to find a suitable time - whether you need to cover off a vacation, or a regular daily walk. We place a strong emphasis on safety for your dog, ensuring that they will be comfortable and well cared or during our walks, visits or boarding. For first time clients, we will arrange a meet and greet so we can meet your dog and get a feel for their personality and comfort level. We also want to make sure your dog is comfortable with our kids. I will provide you with multiple updates and photos through the stay, so that you have peace of mind, your pup is in good hands.
About: Hello, My name is Nadine, and I am excited to be in the pet care world, bringing a lifetime of love and experience with dogs of all sizes—from tiny companions to big adventure buddies. Whether they were my own pups or clients dogs staying with me, I’ve always treated every animal with the same care and affection as family. I offer safe, reliable, and flexible pet care tailored to your dog’s personality and routine. From playful puppies to laid-back seniors, I customize each visit to ensure your furry friend feels happy, loved, and well cared for—whether that’s a high-energy walk, a hike on the Bruce, or a cozy cuddle session. I take pride in being dependable, thoughtful, and someone you (and your pet!) can count on. I look forward to meeting you and your favourite furry friend! I have a flexible schedule, whether you need an early morning walk, mid day break or late afternoon hike, I can make myself available to suit your pets needs. I care for pets by providing a safe and loving environment. I have a fully fenced yard and (sadly) a pet absent home. I am happy to follow any specific instructions—whether it’s special walking routines, medications, or unique quirks. I’m attentive, responsible, and always focused on making sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and at ease.
About: I've been taking care of my pets, as well as my neighbors, since I was around 8. My sister and I used to cat sit for our neighbors twice a year and I sometimes dog sit for my friends. I grew up living with two golden doodles and now my family has a sheepdog and a golden retriever/bernedoodle mix I'm currently free until the beginning of September. I'm starting a bachelor's program in the fall, so my availability will change, I'm totally down to discuss it individually then! My home has a fenced backyard and my dogs aren't crate trained so they sleep with us in our rooms. I'm available to discuss specific routines for each of my clients!
“Sheila is so reliable, great with Cody and a wonderful communicator. I always feel so happy and relived when I get her notes after she visits. I look forward to booking her again.”
About: I’ve happily had dogs in my life for 40 years. As a retired teacher, I’d love to help care for yours, I have the time! I have experience with all sizes and ages of dogs, including administering medicine and injections (subcutaneous). Over my lifetime, I’ve been a parent to two westies, a border collie, Australian collie, polish sheepdog and currently have a wonderful five year old, Old English Sheepdog. I love spending time to get to know a dog and their personality to better meet their walking needs. Do they like long distance walks? Fast or slow? Do they like to interact with other dogs or people? This ensure your dog will have the best walk/visit experience. I’m retired but usually busy at the gym in the mornings (I can adjust that) and would be available to walk or even visit your dog anytime in the afternoon or evening. I have a fenced yard and am home most of the day (usually gone a couple hours in the morning). Safety, love and care are paramount.
“Hailey is hands down THE BEST!! She took the absolute best care of our cat for a week while we were away. We were nervous having someone watch our diva cat, but Hailey made the experience seamless and stress free ❤️. She checked in daily and sent pictures to let us know how kitty was doing. We 200% recommend Hailey for the care of your animals. We are already rebooking Hailey for our next trip.”
“Pruthu was very easy to work with and really understood our situation and what we needed when caring for our dog. Coco can be quite difficult to handle for strangers, but Pruthu put in a lot of effort from the very first session to bond with him and made him comfortable. That gave us a lot of peace of mind and I was able to be worry free for the four days we were away. Really appreciate the care and effort he put in with Coco. Highly recommend!”
“Highly recommend Christina! She did an outstanding job taking care of our 2 cats. One of our cats is very shy and quite bonded to me and normally hides when someone visits. Christina gained her trust and she became quite friendly with Christina! Both cats enjoyed Christina's company. Christina was always quick to respond to texts and prompt in sending daily texts including photos of our furry kids.Everything was left neat and tidy and clean. She definitely went way beyond our expectations! Hope to engage her excellent services next time we go on vacation.”
“Nick came to our rescue on super short notice after I injured my foot and my partner was out of town, accepting our request within 30 minutes to start the very next day over a long holiday weekend. He and Murphy, our doggo, bonded right away. It didn't take long for Murphy to figure out what it meant whenever Nick arrived! He went above and beyond by taking her to the local dog park for extra socialization. Highly recommend Nick for anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring dog walker!”
About: I’ve had a lifelong love for animals, growing up surrounded by them and honing my care skills through professional work at an animal shelter, giving me hands on experience with all types of pets and their unique needs. I’m attentive to every pet’s personality and make sure they feel safe and loved at all times. I’m mostly at home every single day, meaning your pet will get constant supervision, attention, and care. They will have plenty of time for play, snuggles, and potty breaks whenever they need them. My home is a pet friendly space designed for fun and comfort: there’s open space for running and playing, a huge selection of toys to keep pups entertained, and tasty treats for positive reinforcement and special moments. I have a gentle 8 month old kitten who’s LOVES playing with other animals, making the space calm and welcoming. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I prioritize a safe, secure environment where they can relax and be themselves.
“This was my first booking with Madisyn. She was great with my kitty Theo. I am very particular about who I leave him in the care of because he is very temperamental and needs to follow a bit of a regimented routine for his health. She met all of my requests without hesitation. She kept me updated with photos and kept in contact with me and even kept track of his bathroom schedule! She also brushed him because he has A LOT of hair - important as a preventative measure so he does not get a blockage(he previously had surgery to remove a hairball!) Theo seemed to have a really good time with her & be very comfortable in her care based on the Live Photos. He loves play time which she was sure to include with each visit. Will definitely be using Madisyn again in the future & highly recommend her if you want someone who is responsible, understanding and who will honestly go above and beyond for your pet so that you can feel at ease when you are not there to take care of them yourself.”
About: I’m a passionate animal lover. I enjoy walking, hiking, and spending time with dogs of all sizes. I’m dedicated to providing reliable, attentive, and compassionate care, ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy. I'm offering boarding and dog walking services within the Hamilton area. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. I love spending time outdoors, going for walks, and making sure pets feel happy, comfortable, and loved.

I provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s individual needs and routine. I prioritize their safety, comfort, exercise, and well-being while following the owner’s instructions closely. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel happy, safe, and comfortable in their environment.
About: I’ve been a dog lover my whole life and get excited whenever I get the chance to spend time with one. I’ve helped care for my parents’, grandparents’, and sister’s dogs and love everything from walks and playtime to just relaxing and keeping them company. I know how important pets are to their families, and I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. ❤️ Pet care fits well into my schedule. I work as a figure skating coach for a few hours in the evenings, which leaves me available during the day and on weekends for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with your pet. I am organized, reliable, and will always make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need. I know pets are family, so I take caring for them seriously. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

I live in an apartment with access to safe walking areas and a nearby park, making it easy to give dogs plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities and I will always follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and routines. I’ll always follow your instructions and keep you updated so you can have peace of mind.
About: I’m retired from the Pharmacy industry. (In my past Profession I had federal government clearance) If you have a pet that requires medication I’m the person for you. I have a very flexible schedule and have my own vehicle . I have owned cats and dogs my whole life. I’m not able to have pets where I live, so I figured this would be a great opportunity to meet new people. Plus put that missing piece back into my life. I believe pets keep you healthier and happier. They are a part of the family and should be treated with kindness and love. I sit for a couple in Florida that have three cats. They call me the cat whisperer! I have also house and dog sat for my girlfriend for many years. Hope to hear from you soon. Katharine

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Many sitters respond to requests in under an hour. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once.
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.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Harper Corners 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 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.
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.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, your payment method is charged at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
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.
