“Christine is the best. She took care of our outdoor indoor cat when we were in vacation. She is very nice and very good with pets. We are very happy to recommend her. Thank you very much Christine for everything. ❤️”
About: I have experience with all manner of animals and truly love and care about all of them. I adore spending time with a rambunctious puppy just as much as with a senior animal who’s slowed down. Personally, I’ve had three dogs, several cats, and some rodents throughout my life, and have worked as a ranch hand with horses and livestock. Over the years I have come to be the first call on many friends lists when they need pet-care. I have a genuine love for caring for all living beings. Presently, I have no pet of my own and am working mostly remotely, so I have all the time and love to give to yours. Currently self employed remotely with a flexible schedule to meet your needs. I am available 7 days a week for walks, home-care and boarding I am happy to adjust to your pet & home's specific needs & preferences. I am able to host all pets in my home, but would prefer to care for large dogs at their own home (feel free to inquire anyway)
About: Growing up in China, I had a sweet Bichon Frise, and that’s where my love for animals began. After moving to Canada, I became a cat parent and have now been caring for cats for over eight years. I currently have two cats of my own, both with very different personalities—one is outgoing, affectionate and curious, while the other is more sensitive and needs a little extra time to feel comfortable. Living with them has taught me that every pet has their own personality and way of communicating. Some cats want to be your best friend right away, while others prefer you to sit quietly nearby and let them make the first move. I’m happy to do both! I’m patient, attentive and respectful of each pet’s boundaries, and I’ll never rush them before they feel safe. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone new. I’ll carefully follow their usual routine, keep their food, water and litter area clean, spend time playing or cuddling with them, and send you photos and updates. I also have experience giving oral medication when needed and can follow instructions carefully. I speak English, Mandarin and Cantonese, and I’m happy to communicate in whichever language feels most comfortable for you. Skills 🐾 – patient and gentle with shy or nervous pets – attentive to behaviour and body language – feeding, litter care, playtime and brushing – medication and care instructions – photo and message updates Experience 🐶🐱 – over eight years of caring for cats – currently a cat parent to two lovely boys – grew up caring for a family dog – comfortable with pets of different personalities and energy levels Available on weekdays after 5PM and have full availability on weekends. I’m happy to dedicate my evenings and weekends to providing reliable care, attention, and companionship for your pet, making sure they feel safe and well looked after while you’re away🥰 My home has several separate rooms, so visiting pets can have their own quiet space when needed. I also have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time, with plenty of trails nearby for walks and exploring.
About: Prices are ALWAYS negotiable :) I once had a pet hamster. I also helped my uncle take care of his Shiba Inu named Mugy. I walked with her, fed her and played with her a lot, we became best friends 😂 I'm a student pilot, so I usually have a lot of free time. I've loved making friends with animals since I was little, so I think this is the perfect job for me. Unfortunately I cannot take pets into my apartment. But if clients need a drop-in visit, I'll try my best to meet clients' demands, I also love taking photos of pets so don't worry about news updating.
About: Depuis mon enfance, j’ai toujours été entourée de chiens. Ayant grandi avec des huskys et d’autres grands chiens, j’ai acquis une solide expérience et une aisance naturelle pour les promenades et les soins quotidiens. J’ai également eu la chance de partager ma vie avec mon propre chien pendant douze années, ce qui a renforcé mon attachement profond aux animaux. De plus, je suis famille d’accueil pour la SPCA, où j’ai pris soin d’animaux ayant parfois des besoins particuliers. Cette expérience m’a permis de développer de grandes compétences en matière de suivi de consignes, d’observation attentive et de surveillance de l’état de santé . Je vous remercie de l’attention portée à ma candidature et demeure disponible pour toute rencontre ou échange à votre convenance. Je suis disponible du lundi au vendredi et la fin de semaine selon les besoins . La fréquence et la durée de mes visites seront planifier selon vos attentes et besoins Je suis une personne de confiance , respectueuse, mature et discrète.

“Bruna was amazing with our cat Nougat! We contacted her last minute for a weekend sitting and she replied right away. She was super friendly, reliable, and caring. She sent us lots of pictures and updates, which really reassured us. Nougat looked so happy in every photo and played a lot with her. We truly appreciated her help and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had animals in my life for as long as I can remember—from my family’s childhood terrier and lab, to cats who were part of our family for 16 years, to our sweet labradoodle Lyekka whom we cherished for 15 years. Today, we share our home with Chester, our energetic 3-year-old. Having cared for pets through every stage of life, I treat every animal with the same patience, love, and attention I give my own. Working a standard 9-to-5 office schedule means I provide a wonderfully predictable and structured routine during the work week—quiet downtime while I'm out, followed by high-energy focus the moment I'm back. Evenings and weekends are dedicated to active play, long walks, and burning off pet energy. Because I genuinely thrive on the vitality and playfulness that pets bring, weekends are wide open for outdoor adventures, fetch sessions, and keeping them thoroughly engaged and happy. Whether hosting in my home alongside my friendly orange tabby Chester or visiting a client's place, safety and engagement are my top priorities. I utilize my evenings, and weekends to channel pets' natural energy through fun walks, play sessions, and attentive care in a calm, secure setting
About: I grew up with dogs and have always considered them family. Our first dog, Sasha, was adopted four months before I was born and had significant behavioural needs. She was my best friend for thirteen wonderful years, and caring for her taught me patience, attentiveness, and how important it is to meet each dog where they are. Since then, my family has had two more dogs, and I’ve gained experience caring for seniors, managing specialized diets, preparing food, and handling unexpected veterinary concerns. Our current dog, Zyler, has canine megaesophagus and requires specialized food preparation and feeding techniques. He’s a lot of work, but he’s also the absolute love of my life! I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and taking the time to make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I am a full time student. I have 3-5 hours of non-negotiable commitments during the week, but I am a homebody and I can be around constantly outside of synchronous in-person classes. I am free Tuesdays. Saturday’s and Sunday’s without restrictions I care for pets by taking my cues from your animal. Having been a foster volunteer, I am aware of signals and cues and how to respect an animal’s boundaries while caring for their needs. I am the cleanest, most respectful house guest and will leave the place immaculate. I will respect homeowners predefined boundaries while providing as much play and cuddles possible.
“Holly was great! Maizy was in good hands and I was updated as scheduled with great photos and comments! I will book Holly again and use her as my preferred cat sitter! Thank you so much Holly!”
About: Je m'occupe de chiens depuis mes 11 ans, je vis en ce moment avec un chiwawa de 11 ans et un chiot Pitsky (mix de pitbull et de husky) de 13 semaines. Je travaille en ce moment a temps partiel et en vu des vacances, j'ai beaucoup de temps libre pour garder vos animaux. De plus, je suis étudiant au cégep donc j'ai des vacances plus longues. Je vais garder vos animaux selon vos critères et vos demandes. Par exemple le nombre de marches voulu, les besoins de nourriture, le type d'environnement, etc.
About: I have consistently taken care of my neighbours', friends' and families' dogs since a young age, in addition to taking care of dogs through Rover. I am very passionate about all animals, and am very attentive to pets' needs and their safety. I am available to walk your pets on the weekends (can try to accommodate any time!) and all evenings (5pm-10pm) through the week! I am also very available to board your pets. I often work from home and will be happy to accommodate a time that works best for you to walk or board throughout the week. I live in close proximity to parks and great walking paths! I am very attentive to pets and will ensure they are watched with plenty of care.
About: With 5 years of Veterinary Assistant experience, I provide calm, compassionate care tailored to each pet. I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring health conditions, and giving extra time and patience to senior pets. I believe pets are happiest in their own familiar environment, so I care for them in their home where they feel safe and comfortable. I value routine and clear communication, and before each booking, I like to go over your pet’s routine, personality, and any important dos and don’ts. Safety is always my priority. For dogs, I avoid dog parks and interactions with unfamiliar dogs until I know their communication and comfort level. My goal is simple: to keep your pet happy, safe, comfortable, and cared for like family while you’re away. ❤️ I work strictly overnight shifts at an animal hospital, giving me flexible daytime availability to care for your pets with plenty of time and attention. I don’t care for pets in my own home because I strongly believe in the comfort and security of their familiar surroundings. When pet parents are away, I believe the least stressful option is for a sitter to come to them—allowing pets to stay in their own space, routine, and comfort zone.
“This was our first experience with Rover and Abbey and they both did not disappoint. Abbey was exceptional, going above and beyond, including doing the dishes used for meals, while we're were gone. She sent daily updates and pictures keeping us in the loop so we could enjoy our time away. We couldn't ask for a better first impression, thank you!”

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.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

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.

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.
