“Ashley has looked after our dog Goose a few times, she’s communicative, kind and friendly. She takes great care of Goose and he enjoys having her round. We’d have her back again to help us with Goose”
“Tatiana was amazing! She watched our very anxious dog for eight days and was exceptional. She was patient in letting our nervous pup get to know her over the first day or two and never pushed past her comfort zone. She sent constant updates with photos and videos, and they went on many beautiful walks and hikes. At the end of the eight days they were well bonded and we came home to a very happy dog! I would definitely rebook Tatiana in the future.”
About: I don't just see dog walking as simply taking a dog around the block. I see it as making them happy, enrichment, exercise and attention I am a set designer who works on contract. Right now I am between shows so I have my days and evenings free. Since I love being around dogs I thought dog walking would be an enjoyable activity with also helping out owners who don't have time to walk their pets and also just love the idea of making a dog smile that day and making them as happy as possible whether that's a long walk or just taking them for a quick rest stop outside :) I am offering dog walking services. I currently live in a condo right beside the Humber arboretum so your pup will get a beautiful walk/sniffs through the long path depending on their activity level. I always make sure to be respectful of the owners house and leave it as I came in. I will always take photos mid walk to send to you just for reassurance. My priority is to make sure the dog feels safe/comfortable and happy at all times. It makes me happy to know I am helping owners make sure their pup gets in daily exercise and is as happy as they can be!
“Jessica provided exceptional care for my dog Parker! She was attentive, loving, and ensured Parker had everything he needed. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”
“We are so thrilled to have found Raffaella! She is a trustworthy, kind and patient dog and house sitter that took the time to really understand all of our dog Potseys “quirks and sensitivities”. We were super worried to travel as our dog is in his senior years and very sensitive to being alone as his eyes and hearing have deteriorated. After a couple days with Raff, he was comfortable an eating and following his ( lazy) routine as per normal. We trusted Raffaella in our home as well overnight and having her here was a blessing for our furbaby and for us ! I would book her without question over and over again. Potsey and our family thank you so much! We hope our paths cross again!”

About: My inspiration to start dog walking/boarding came after my dog (Buddy), passed away in November of 2023. Not a day goes by without thinking of him and all the memories we made. After 16.5 years, he truly left a void in my heart. I currently volunteer my time as a dog walker at a dog sanctuary, which takes in rescue and surrendered dogs. This has provided me with extensive experience with many types of breeds and their unique behaviors. I know the feeling of trying to find a reliable dog sitter and how much your dog means to you, like buddy did to me. This is why I know I can offer the ultimate peace of mind and continuity in your dog's daily routine and lifestyle. I decided to use my experience and knowledge to provide the best service and level of care to other dogs, which ultimately fulfills my purpose and passion for dogs. My Services include the following: - Administer medication: I have experience administering topagen sprays, oral medications, eye drops, ear drops, changing bandages. - Bathing: I have a full-size bathtub and use Burt’s Bees Oatmeal Shampoo (recommended by vets). You can also provide your desired shampoo. - Boarding: Your dog will feel like home away from home in my care. I will ensure a continuity of their daily lifestyle and activities. - Emergencies: I have access to 3 major animal hospitals and a trusted vet in the event your dog needs medical attention - Peace of Mind: Updates with pictures, videos and facetiming to document all the fun your dog is having. This provides owners with peace of mind when their dog is in my care. *Special note: I am a Boutique Boarder. My boutique boarding service provides owners with exclusive level of care and the peace of mind knowing that their fur baby always has the time and attention they deserve! If you require anything further, please feel free to inquire! Thank you for your consideration, I look forward to hearing from you! With a flexible work schedule, your fur baby will always be cared for at every moment of the of their stay, guaranteed continuity of their daily routine. I have a fully fenced backyard with 2 gates that are secured to ensure your fur baby can run and play safe and relieve themselves comfortably. Qualifications: - Certified PET Sitter - Currently enrolled in a dog training program (L.E.G.S.) that will enable me to train/sharpen any skills you are working on with your fur baby

About: Serving Kleinburg, Woodbridge, Maple & Concord (Vaughan) 🐾 Leaving your pet with someone else can feel like a BIG deal. You want to know they’re safe, loved, and with someone who will genuinely care for them. That’s exactly the kind of care I want to provide. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits at your home, as well as pet care in my own home. Whether you need someone to take your dog for a walk, stop by to feed and spend time with your pet while you’re away, or provide a comfortable place for them to stay, I’ll make sure they get plenty of care and attention. I also offer exclusive boarding service where your pet would be the only one in my cozy home for additional fee. I’ve loved being around animals my whole life and grew up caring for as many as 10 cats at once. I have experience with cats and dogs with seperation anxiety, high/low energy, different personalities and needs. I’m patient with pets who may need a little extra time to feel comfortable and trust someone new. I live with my husband in a 2,500 sq. ft. detached home in Vaughan with a fenced backyard (please see the attached pictures of the house), giving your pet plenty of space to feel comfortable. They can sniff around the my trees and grass in the backyard whenever they want, which is their way of discovering. Whether your furry friend loves walks, playing outside, fetch playtime, cuddles on the coach or simply having their own space, I’ll pay attention to what makes them happiest. I’ll always follow your pet’s usual feeding and care routine and any instructions you leave for me. I’ll keep their space clean and make sure they get the right amount of walks, playtime, attention and rest. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable and cared for while you’re away like I would want it if I had a pet. I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! 🐾 - (I don't have any pets/cats) - Please note: Pickups more than 15 minutes late will incur a late fee of $7.50 for every 15 minutes past the scheduled time. - If your dog or cat causes significant damage to the home or furniture beyond normal wear, I will contact you to discuss any replacement costs. I enjoy taking dogs for walks around nearby community parks, playing with them in my fenced backyard, and spending time with them at home. I also make sure to follow each pet’s usual feeding, walking, and sleeping schedule so they feel comfortable while staying with me. I have a fenced backyard and a detached house and I don't have any animals. So, your furry friend would be free to walk around in the house and the backyard.
“Liliana was punctual upon arrival. She watched our dog for 3 days in our home. Liliana walked him as per our request. She communicated & sent pictures throughout her stay. I would highly recommend Liliana to watch your pet. We will definitely be requesting Liliana again in the future.”

Ashley was so lovely and very easy to communicate with! She clearly loves dogs and was so lovely with our boys, Bobby and Juan. Juan can be nervous of strangers but he was immediately comfortable with Ashley and was excited to meet her!! This is always such a good sign and very reassuring that they would be in safe and caring hands. Thank you so much Ashley!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your postal code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighbourhood.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Kleinburg maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Kleinburg walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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 Kleinburg 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!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, a background check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
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.
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.
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.
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.
