“Brigit and Robert were fabulous with Henry on his first over-nighter, including indulging his early breakfast. Their home is safe, cozy and beautiful, and they kept in great touch during his stay ... also sending pics along with the 'pup'-dates. Henry arrived home with that "I've just been to a spa" look on his face. He can't wait for another sleep over and his long stay in the fall. Thanks to both of you!!”
“Tito loved her stay with Madison and had a great time playing with Fin. Thank you for being so accommodating! 100 percent recommend and will look to book again next time Tito needs a place to stay.”
“Eli ( Fern) being to visit Robyn on two occasions over the summer; each visit was very successful. Robyn is a very kind, informative and masterful as a dog sitter! Appreciate her care & highly recommend!”
“A big thank you to Kristiina and Peter for taking amazing care of our Roxie. Roxie felt right at home and was looked after very well. Kristiina was very flexible with Roxie and took her for long walks which Roxie loves. We would recommend Kristiina with no hesitation at all. I am sure that we will use Kristiina again. Thank you again Kristiina and Peter for looking after our precious Roxie.”
About: I’ve had plenty of experience caring for dogs since I got my own when I was 8. I have been around dogs of all different breeds, ages, and sizes, and I love them all! I have always been the go to dog sitter for friends and family because I am reliable, trustworthy, and attentive. Every dog has its own needs and routine so I will always make sure they are loved, cared for, and come home happy! I am currently in my 3rd year at Queen’s studying Health. I am available all day Thursday-Monday. I have limited weekly commitments outside of classes so I should be very flexible with timing for the remainder of the week as well! I live in a central area in Kingston with nearby parks and lots of walkable streets. My home also has plenty of room for a dog and it has an outdoor area!
About: I've been dog sitting and walking small to extra large dogs for over 5 years! I've also had large dogs my whole life. I enjoy spending time outdoors and going for walks and having a pet with me makes it better! I've grown up around puppies as well as dog sat puppies before. Pet care fits into my daily routine as I go for walks everyday, and I'm on a regular routine with times I am available to let dogs out and feeding. I care for pets like they are my own! As a pet owner myself, I take caring for someone's pet very seriously. I will treat your pet as it was my own.
“I had a wonderful experience with Dhanesha! She took excellent care of my dog, Rose, while I was away. From the daily updates with photos to the thoughtful attention to Rose's needs, everything was perfect. Dhanesha is reliable and trustworthy. I came home to a happy and well-cared-for pet. I highly recommend Dhanesha to anyone looking for top-notch pet care.”
“We left our dog with Walelign for two weeks on very short notice because so our usual sitters were unavailable. It was clear from day one though that he is a big dog lover and that he will take great care of our pet. He is very communicative, he sent photos every day like we requested, and he wasn’t afraid to ask before introducing new food and treats. We could see on the pictures he sent us Korra was having a great time! We will definitely be leaving Korra with him again, and we wholeheartedly recommend Walelign to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
About: I’ve been caring for our family pets and my own pets my entire life. I’ve provided a home for both cats and dogs with a variety of different personalities and needs. I’ve been trusted with walking, feeding and watching my family and friends fur babies on many occasions. My goal is that every animal in my care feels safe, comfortable, and loved while ensuring they receive the patience, attention, and care they deserve. I’m currently a student. I’m available between classes for potty breaks, walks, or some play time. I am also available after classes, time will vary based on my schedule, and weekends. I have two lovely cats in my apartment, one of which will be your pets best friend, and the other prefers to keep to herself. I will do my best to ensure your pet sticks to their regular routine, whether it’s in my home or yours.
“Deanna & Scott did a great job caring for my dog while I was away for 10 days. They sent me lots of pictures and were always easy to talk to. I had no worries while I was away which made my trip much more enjoyable.”
“Nicole took our dog for a couple of walks each day and was able to play with both her kids and pets. Nicole also gave us an update on our pet's stay along with a photo.”

“Josephine was an excellent sitter! We really appreciated that she took the time to meet Scout and ask questions before the stay began to ensure that everything ran smoothly. During the stay she sent regular updates to let us know Scout was doing well and show us how much fun they were having. Having Josephine care for our little guy meant we could enjoy a weekend away without any concerns. Easiest 5 start review we could give!”
About: With 12 years of professional pet care experience, I've worked in dog daycare, obedience training, dog walking companies, and overnight pet sitting for dogs, cats, and small animals. I'm experienced with administering medication and caring for senior pets with special needs. I believe every pet is unique, so I work closely with owners to ensure your furry friend gets the safe, loving care they deserve while you're away. I have a very flexible work schedule that allows me to move my shift around as needed to suit your pets needs. Your pets needs come first to ensure they are happy and healthy. I have 2 friendly cats but only one (Whiskey) will show face during your pets visit in my home. I have an unfenced yard with a tie out that gives your pet tons of space to roam the yard. My yard backs onto the woods and is away from the road. Your pet will always be monitored in my home and will never be left unattended. In your home, I will follow your guidance and continue your pets routine however that may look.
About: Since the age of 10 I’ve always had a house full of pets , wether they were mine, friends, neighbours or families pets I always ensured they were loved and well taken care of! I currently work from home therefore have a lot of flexibility and time to care for pets. Walks are always taken every 3-4 hours and playtime is anytime! I live in a spacious apartment with plenty of room for pets to stretch out, play, and feel comfortable. I maintain a safe, clean, and calm environment, ensuring regular potty breaks, structured exercise, active engagement, and plenty of individual attention throughout the day
“Daisy is an older dog with anxiety and needs medications daily. It's hard to find someone who can meet her needs and behaviors. Nicole was wonderful. I think Daisy had a better time with her than with me😀. I was able to have a worry free weekend away.”
“I cannot say enough about Deb and James. Their loving care of our geriatric dog was nothing short of amazing. We knew Mollie was in great hands from the day we brought her to meet them. We would not hesitate to refer all our friends and family to them.”
“My first time finding someone to look after my boy, Remmy, and I am more than happy that I found Elsa! From scheduling an intro meet, to working out the details, everything was excellent and went smoothly. Remmy had a blast, and when I picked him up, he was calm, relaxed and happy! I couldn't have asked for more :) thanks so much Elsa!!:)”

This was Frodo’s second stay with Daniel, and once again, everything went wonderfully! Frodo was clearly happy and comfortable with him, and it was so heartwarming to see him say goodbye to Daniel with so much love and affection. Thank you, Daniel, for taking such wonderful care of Frodo and for your kindness, patience, and compassion. It means so much to know he is in such caring hands. We would happily book with you again!
Mary is the absolute best caretaker we have ever had for our sweet Howie. He gets so excited when he sees Mary and we become chopped liver - exactly what we want!! She is the only sitter we go to now and we are so thankful for the love and attention she provides. Mary is so thoughtful and engaged, sending updates and communicating with us throughout Howie’s stay each and every time. Howie goes for so many walks and meets so many friends when staying with Mary. There is never a worry or any anxiety when leaving him in Mary’s capable hands. We have full confidence and trust in the care Howie will receive when he is with her. Thank you, Mary (& Lloyd & Samson)!!
Sadie was amazing! Extremely responsive to inquiries, and accommodating when making arrangements to meet, drop off and pick up. She gave excellent care to our beautiful girl, and sent lots of updates with pictures. Sadie (our lab) was grinning ear to ear in each picture. We were completely at ease leaving our girl with Sadie and have no hesitation in giving Sadie a 5⭐️ review! Thanks again Sadie!!
Melissa and her lovely family took great care of our Irish wolfhound Henry, not in the least phased by his 165-lb frame. Because he tends to be anxious if left alone in a new place, she even slept downstairs on his first night there. Her sweet dog Tulip also helped him feel more at ease. Henry soon relaxed, chilling in their dog bed (and cat bed--at the same time!) and snuggling on the couch. We look forward to leaving him with Melissa again.
This was my first experience with Rover. I was nervous about leaving my girl Minnie overnight for the first time. Lisa put my mind at ease quickly, and Minnie was so well cared for. I got frequent updates and photos and she looked very happy and relaxed. Highly recommend Lisa—an attentive caregiver and kind person as well! Will definitely use her again!
Krista and Jacob took very good care of Penny for the two weeks I was away. They kept me informed every few days with photos, videos and updates on how Penny was doing. I fully appreciated their commitment to keeping me informed. I would highly recommend them to others.
Thanks so much for providing Seamus with such a friendly, safe 'home away from home' environment. We appreciated the time you took asking questions to better understand his personality traits and schedule, and the photos you provided of his activities. He enjoyed his many walks and looks forward to visiting again!
Kate was great!! We agreed to a meet and greet so Kate could meet Tucker before we made any final decisions on boarding ( so luck would have it, in the rain 😀 ) Drop off was quick and easy, and within a short period of time we were receiving pictures and updates of how things were going. Kate was very communicative and was constantly giving us updates on how Tucker was doing. This definitely put my mind at ease as this was the first time in 7 years that we needed to leave our fur baby with someone other than immediate family. Tucker got to enjoy lots of long walks, play time and of course lots of snuggles. We would be more than happy to hire Kate again to watch Tucker ❤️
We left our dog with Owen for the weekend and they seemed to really enjoy the time theh had with our dog. He was very attentive to her needs and took real good care of her. Blue heelers have a lot of energy, but Owen seemed to match her. If ever we're passing through Kingston again we would feel good leaving her with Owen.
Peter has been very easy to work with and conscientious about updating me on our dogs activities including photos every day. Our Dexter loved being with him and his Golden retriever Sia who he played with. It was like sending Dexter to camp. Would not hesitate to recommend Peter.
Caitlin is a natural with animals and really cares. She was wonderful for me and my dog Harry. Used her for overnight boarding but I was really nervous as Harry was going to an unknown sitter. We had a great meet and Harry had a great time. He is fast asleep now after a busy 24hrs of walking, playing fetch in the back garden, dog Park visits and a waterfront walk today! I will be using her again. Great communication, always answering my random Harry questions and always sending reassuring pictures of his activities. Thank you so much. Of note I was concerned about her living in an apartment but, there was no need she has a long garden with direct access from her door - First time Rover user in Canada from a Verified dog mum.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Kingston is $43 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $67 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 Kingston have an average of 16 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.

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.

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 Kingston 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.
