“We’re so grateful to Catherine for taking such wonderful care of Avro this week! She did three drop-in visits, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Communication was so easy, and we loved receiving her updates and photos of Avro. It gave us such peace of mind knowing Avro was being so well cared for while we were away. Catherine was thoughtful, reliable, and clearly gave Avro lots of care and attention. We’d absolutely love to have her look after Avro again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet with kindness and care!”

About: Growing up in a home with five dogs and over ten cats meant my life was non-stop paws, tails, and belly rubs. It taught me everything from handling medications, puppy and potty training, extra senior pet care, reading a pet’s body language and knowing when they just need a quiet cuddle or extra patience. For the past three years, I’ve been the go-to sitter for friends and coworkers heading out of town. I treat every pet in my care like family. When your pet is with me, they aren't just being watched, I can guarantee that they're getting a true home away from home. I work a 8-5 job during the week, however I offer a predictable, well-structured routine for your pets. I provide whole week cat boarding at my quiet house, weekend pets house sitting, and dog walking service during early morning and evening hours. I also offer drop-in visits for cats and dogs right before and after my work shift and during lunch break if needed. You can count on me for reliable feeding schedules, timely medication, and dedicated quality time when your pet needs it most. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in your house, my priority is always making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. In my home, I provide a cozy, calm environment where cats can relax, play, and follow their usual routines as closely as possible. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and cuddles-just like they would with their own family. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely to keep things familiar and stress free for their pets. I’m attentive to their feeding schedule, potty breaks, playtime, and any special needs. Most importantly, I treat every animal with the same patience, kindness, and love I’d want someone to give to my own pets.

About: We've had rescue and other dogs and cats as pets before and miss having the company, interaction and walks. We're reasonable, easy-going, flexible, friendly, active and healthy. We are retired. When we're not out biking, hiking, walking, playing tennis or skiing together, one of us is always home. We love having a dog in our home. We're flexible and want to be consistent with a dog's care as it is in their primary home. We have had dogs stay with us crated or not. We spend a lot of time in our very large yard that backs onto a wild grassed area and a lane. We can take a dog year round into a forested area behind the lane.

About: Its never easy to leave fur babies and go away, but have a peace of mind for they have a home full of love, care and to sway. We always had a dog(s) growing up as kids, and at times we had 8 days for a family of 4. Sometimes fostering for family and friends, other times, adopting. It was the best times, coming home to be greeted by your furry siblings, getting the licks, getting the love. We had dogs of multiple breeds and sizes. Sometimes snuggling, other times playing and chasing each other around the house. We want to experience the same love again. Unfortunately due to economic conditions, we cannot get a pet for ourselves yet, but we definitely would share our home, love and care with yours. They are the best companions for walks, jogs, playtime. They are ultimate energy boosters. I work from home most with flexible schedule, so have plenty of time for snuggles, play, walks. My husband's love dogs too (he works from home too), so we are almost always available to host a furry friends. Its important for pets to feel comfort of home, so I follow the routines, instructions, pet, love, snuggle to avoid any incident with your pet. We have a huge park and trail in front of our house, that means lots of outdoor time, lots of trees for dogs to sniff and photo time :) And, I will share their photos with you too and keep you posted of their stay, so you don't have any worries.

You can count on me to provide trusted, compassionate care, just like I do for my own. Pet care is a natural and joyful part of my everyday life. I work from home full-time, which allows me to give your cat the attention, companionship, and care they need throughout the day.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I’ve been caring for them since I was 12 years old. Growing up, I often looked after my neighbours’ cats, dogs, and rabbits while they were away - something i relished, as I wasn't allowed my own pet in the house (excluding fish, which i had many- i took what i could get!). Since moving out I have adopted several cats of my own and have continued to pet sit for friends regularly (both cats and dogs). They know they can always count on me if they need a sitter. :) Caring for animals has always felt like something that comes naturally to me; I love getting to know their individual personalities, routines, and little quirks. Most recently, I have cared, on multiple occasions, for three elderly and sick cats. Each has different health needs, medications, and eating schedules, so I made sure to carefully follow their routines and give each one the attention and care they needed. I also provided regular updates to assuage any understandable fears that the parents had. I’m reliable, responsible, and very attentive, and I understand how much trust goes into leaving your pets in someone else’s care. My goal is always to make your pets feel comfortable and loved while you’re away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands. I recently moved from Vancouver Island back to my home city of Ottawa and am currently unencumbered by a full-time job. I am available 24/7 for attentive pet care, ranging from walks, feeding and check-ins, to multiple night stays. When caring for your pet in their own home, I want them to feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible by keeping their usual routine and giving them plenty of love and attention. I’m happy to take care of their everyday needs, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter or bathroom breaks, and administering medications when needed. I’ll take the time to follow any specific instructions you leave me and pay close attention to your pet’s behaviour, making sure they are happy, comfortable, and safe throughout my visit. I also understand that every pet is different, so I’ll adapt to their personality and needs; whether they’re playful and energetic, shy and cautious, or simply looking for some extra companionship.

About: Hi my name is Bridget, I am a dedicated animal lover, compassionate person and experienced dog walker/sitter who will take amazing care of your furry friend(s). I have always loved animals, growing up I had rabbits and cats. I definitely understand and have experienced the special bond between humans and animals. A few years ago, I made the exciting decision to spend my time between Ottawa and Mexico. In Mexico, I walked dogs from a no kill rescue shelter 3-4 times a week. I sometimes walked 4 dogs at a time, so I would say that's my special skill :) I love spending time with each dog after their walk so they get the affection they deserve. It is rewarding to see their confidence grow, to get to know their personality, to have them trust humans again. I have developed a deep connection with each dog. It is heartwarming to see them get adopted. I had the opportunity to foster dogs at my home in Mexico. One of them was a 2 month old puppy rescued from the streets who had distemper. I cared for her until she was healthy and strong. She is now living her best life with an owner who adores her. I love success stories! In Ottawa, my friends often ask me to petsit because they know I'm incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and enjoy spending time with their pets. I am always greeted by wagging tails, they love to follow me all over the house, love to cuddle up next to me. The special bond I've built with each pet brings me joy. I take one of my friend's dog for nail trimming, vet appointments when needed, and bathe her. I truly enjoy walking dogs too because when I take a dog for a walk, it's not just about getting some exercise - it's an opportunity to brighten up their day, show them some love and attention, and for them to smell the roses. Not only do they get to go for nice walks but they get lots of playtime, brushing, and cuddles. When I take care of your dog, I will ensure that any and all instructions you leave me will be followed with the utmost attention to keep your little buddy(ies) happy! I wish I could have a dog of my own, but due to frequent traveling, it's sadly not the right time for me which is why I love taking care of other people's pets; it brings me happiness. I would love to expand this passion into a new opportunity with Rover. I could petsit at your house during the week and on weekends, whatever is required by the owner. It is something that we can discuss and make arrangements. I am pretty flexible. I can take care of your pet(s) at your house. I will respect the instructions that you leave for me and give your dog(s) lots of affection.

Our cat is usually really hesitant around new people but warmed up to the girls right away. We received lots of updates of how she was doing. We are so glad they took such good care of her while we were away. It was such a peace of mind knowing she was well taken care of and will definitely be using them in the future.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Johnston Corners

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 Johnston 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.
