“Iltze is absolutely lovely! She was so kind and gentle with my cat, and he bonded with her immediately. While he boarded with her, she sent me photos & videos everyday, and it was such a relief to see him so safe, comfortable, and happy. At the end of his stay, he actually refused to go back into his cage to come home with me!!! This has never happened before haha. I’m so glad we found Iltze; I’ve already booked more stays with her ❤️”
“Carli was absolutely amazing! Last minute our dog had allergies and required additional care with medication and she was so accommodating and understanding. Loved getting pictures and any necessary updates. Would absolutely book with Carli again!”
“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.”
“Molly took such great care of our elderly dachshund. We received updates and adorable photos, our pup was treated like a member of the family and taken out on excursions, and was in good spirits when we arrived home after our 5 day trip. Molly's home was clean, welcoming and with a fenced yard with no escape routes :) We have already booked our next sitting date with Molly, highly recommend!”
“Josephine recently took care of my 2 standard poodles - 12 years old and 4 years old. The 4 year old was rehomed to me a year ago and is a challenging dog. Josephine was just fantastic with both of them - taking care of the 12 year old's mobility issues and making sure the 4 year old was exercised and entertained. It was so clear from the photos Josephine sent that both pups were having a grand time and we have already booked their next stay!”
“Charlee and Max stayed with Arshpreet and her family for 2 days, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. We received regular updates throughout their stay, including photos, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear our dogs were in good, trustworthy care. Highly recommend & will certainly book again.”

Thank you Zoe! -Tabitha & Daisy”
About: Our family included a sweet cat who lived to the age of 19. We also have a dog who is 5 years old and we understand the joys of puppy training. We enjoyed Puppy school and agility training and understand what is required to keep dogs happy and well exercised. I recently retired and I am looking for ways to stay active and dog walking is an activity that I enjoy. We currently have our own dog and he loves companions when appropriate. If your pet is not social- no problem! I have a fully fenced yard and a 5 year old mini golden doodle who loves furry friends. I enjoy long walks and am well prepared with treats and water. Rain or snow don't deter me from a walk- its always enjoyable with the right outerwear! I have attended puppy school with my dog and understand the concepts of dog behavior and how to keep dogs in control, engaged and happy.
“Christine was excellent with our dog, Shadow. She was very accommodating with our last minute booking and very easy to communicate with. The pictures she sent were great too. We would definitely recommend her as she absolutely loves dogs. Thanks again and I think Shadow loved her overnight adventure at your home, Christine”
About: Hi, I’m Elsa! 🐾 Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve been caring for pets for family, friends, and people in my community since I was 16 years old, and it’s truly one of my greatest passions. I live in Kingston in a spacious home with a fully fenced backyard that’s perfect for pets of all sizes. I happily welcome both small and large dogs, as well as cats and other small animals. 👩🏻💻 I work from home full-time, so your pets will rarely be left alone. They’ll receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles throughout the day. 💕 I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, fish, and turtles, so I’m comfortable caring for a wide variety of animals. Every pet has its own personality, and I always take the time to follow their routine and make them feel safe and loved. When your pet stays with me, I care for them as if they were my own. You’ll also receive regular photo updates and messages, so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. I can’t wait to meet your furry (or not-so-furry!) family member and give them all the love and care they deserve. ❤️ MY SERVICES • Boarding in my home (all sizes welcome) • Drop-in visits at your home • Daily walks • Available days, evenings, and overnight • Short- and long-term stays • Medication administration if needed • Full-time work-from-home supervision Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home full-time. I’m home throughout the day, so your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and cuddles (not just before and after work). I enjoy keeping pets on their usual routine and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, and I make sure every pet gets the time and attention they deserve. I believe the best pet care starts with getting to know each animal. Before every booking, I take the time to learn about their habits, favourite activities, energy level, and anything that helps them feel comfortable. For dogs, that might mean walks, outdoor play, games, or simply relaxing together. For cats, it could be quiet company, playtime when they feel like it, or respecting their space. I always follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medication, and any special needs. When pets stay in my home, they also have access to a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and fresh air. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is simple: to make them feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away, so you can enjoy complete peace of mind.
“This was Georgia's first time with a stranger and so I was understandably nervous as Georgia can be nervous with strangers. Maddy told me that Georgia was a little difficult at first but with Maddy's understanding, she saw what made Georgia more relaxed and took steps to calm her. She also did a fabulous job of grooming and when I picked Georgia up she looked beautiful and seemed very happy and content. Thank you so much for a wonderful job.”
“Deb & James did a fantastic job with Nino!! They would send us daily updates with the cutest photos and videos while we were away. We missed little Nino, but we knew he had been in great hands since day one. Deb & James are so kind and lovely, and we highly recommend them as pet sitters! We cannot thank them enough for being so patient with Nino and ensuring he felt comfortable and at ease with them (he is a very fearful chihuahua.) When we picked him up, we could tell that Nino loved them and had the best time while he was staying with them. THANK YOU!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kingston
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!
Stephen, Holly, and their family were wonderful hosts for our puppy, Cedar! This was Cedar’s first overnight stay away from us, and we came home to a happy, healthy, and tired pup. We really appreciated the photo updates, prompt communication, reliability, and their willingness to care for a high energy 6.5 month old puppy. It gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again in the future!
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.
Thomas did an great job with our cat Rosie. I really felt like she was loved while there. The house itself was also spacious so she had lots of space to roam. Rosie has medical issues and so needs meds at very specific times of day and Thomas made sure to let us know that she got them. I would definitely have him cat-sit for is again 😊
We had the most incredible experience with Catharine. Our family had booked a vacation months ago and arranged dog boarding back in January for our pup, Clover. Just a few days before we were supposed to fly out of the country, our original boarder suddenly cancelled due to an unexpected personal situation. With our luggage packed and our departure coming up fast, we were in full panic mode trying to figure out who could take care of him last-minute (for 11 nights!). We started messaging every boarder in Kingston, and everyone was either booked, unavailable, or didn’t respond. Catharine was the only person who got back to us with a 'yes' right away. We had never met her before, so we were understandably anxious. She offered to meet us the very next day, just a few hours before she was scheduled to catch a train to Toronto. From the moment we met her, she was warm, friendly, and instantly put us at ease. While we were away with the kids, she sent us daily photos, videos, and updates. Those updates meant the world to us. Clover bonded with her so quickly, and it was clear he was having a wonderful time. She even went out of her way to give him fruit and veggie treats like strawberries and cucumbers, took him on lots of walks, let him sunbathe outside, practiced the tricks our kids taught him, and gave him all the cuddles he could ever want. Catharine turned one of the most stressful moments of our dog‑ownership lives into something genuinely positive. Clover was loved, cared for, and happy the entire time. We are so grateful for her kindness and the way she stepped in when we needed help the most. We would give her 6 stars if we could! Thank you, Catharine!
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.

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.
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 pet, 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 .
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.
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.
