“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.”
“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”
“We chose travel dates based on Solana’s schedule because we trust her so much! We went away for an entire month while she house-sat for us and took care of our two cats. Every day while we were away we’d look forward to her updates. When we came back, the house was tidy, and our boys (cats) were totally calm and happy. We couldn’t ask for more!”
“Ife was incredible! He cared for our 3 Rotti’s which can be intimidating for some people. He followed our instructions precisely, shared photos and videos, and went over and above to play with the dogs and keep them comfortable while we were away. . He was also so respectful in our home and when we came back, it was spotless and he left his flowers, which I thought was a very special touch! We would definitely use him again when we’re away and absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a dog sitter Thank you, Ife. We appreciate everything you did!”
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!”
“Amy was really amenable for meet & greet. Very good with Toby upon meeting him and his eccentricities. I came home to find Toby comfortable and the house was in as good or better condition than I had left it before my trip. I would have great peace of mind leaving Toby in her care again!”
About: I have so much love and affection to give to your pet! I house sat cats and dogs before. I am here to help out dog and cat owners who need someone trustworthy to take care of their pet like they are my own. I am flexible with time and do not hesitate to call me last minute because I will try my best to arrange something convenient for you. I love to give pets all my attention, making sure they are receiving the affection and playtime they need! I have many years of experience.
About: I went to college for Veterinary Assisting in 2019, and have had various experiences. I've worked in Vet clinics and hospitals and frequently pet sit for friends and family. I have a huge love of animals of every kind! From the furry, to the scaly, and even the feathered! I have experience working with animals from all stages of life, as well as furry friends with specialized diets. Put your faith in me and you won't be disappointed! I have full availability for your furry friends when I’m not at other pet sitting jobs! I am super flexible so feel free to send me a message to see if our schedules align :) This is dependent on the species, breed and what their specific needs are. For example, in college, I owned 2 rats who needed consistent enrichment activities, regular baths and grooming, as well as all the love and snuggles they wanted! They both lived 2 very long happy lives up until and even past their life expectancy. I now own a large and thriving aquarium which I love and adore.
About: I grew up in a home with cats and a dog! I now don’t have any pets and miss having a pet companion. Near the end of my dogs like she required extra care and medications. I have pet sit for friends many times (dogs and cats). I currently work a 9-5 job Monday to Thursday so I have weekends and evenings available to look after your pets! I can be flexible with remote work. When house sitting, my goal would be to make your pet fee comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I would follow their usual routine as closely as possible including meals, walks, playtime and any other specific instructions you provide. I would keep you updated with photos and check ins so you know how they’re doing.
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: Hi, I’m Michelle! 🐾 I absolutely love animals and honestly feel happiest around them. My family has 3 dogs, two Maltese and a Jack Russell Terrier mix, and I’ve regularly cared for different dogs and cats for friends and family. I’ve had the sweetest time getting to know each of their personalities and routines, only to sadly have to say goodbye when they went home. I live in an apartment now and definitely miss having pets around, so I’d love to give your pet some extra love, attention, and company while you’re away. 🤍 I’m in university during the week, with Thursdays, Fridays, and weekends completely open. I’m home for most of the day on my available days, so your pet can have plenty of company, attention, walks, and playtime rather than being left alone for long periods. I live alone and have a lot of space inside and walking pets out and around has never been difficult where i live. There's a pet playground right outside my building. The doggies love it.
“Kassandra house sat for us and looked after my dog Ollie while we were away over the weekend. Ollie had a blast and I felt better knowing that Ollie was being so well taken care of. Kassandra sent us lots of pictures and updates which was really nice and she left our house spotless. Thanks again Kassandra!!!”
About: I love all types of animals. I know how to train little puppies and I’m pretty sure I did a great job in training my own fur baby! I will make sure to keep them busy and active. I am fully experienced in administering medications for both dogs and cats. Always on top of cleaning their food and water bowl and providing fresh water and make sure they have full and easy access to food and water at all times. Fully experienced with bathing small dogs. Comfortable taking dogs for a walk. Also, my favourite activities are puppy yoga, cat yoga, goat yoga and visiting animal farms and sanctuaries. At the moment, I have a full time job. I am free after 6:00PM on weekdays and fully available on weekends. I love to spend my free times with animals. Caring for pets in my house or a client’s house involves various tasks such as feeding, providing fresh water, exercising, grooming, and cleaning up after them. Additionally, offering companionship and attention to ensure their well-being and happiness is essential. It is very important to follow any specific instructions provided by the pet owner regarding their routines, dietary needs, medications, and any special requirements. Regular communication with the owner about the pet’s behavior and any concerns is also important for maintaining trust and ensuring the best care possible.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since age 9. From small ones such as birds and fish to cats and dogs. I currently own a Bengal cat, but have previously owned a cocker spaniel, Doberman, and pitbull. I have also dealt with animals that have separation anxiety. I currently work for myself so I am able to create my own schedule. I currently have a lot of free time during weekdays and some evenings. I don’t offer pet stays at my place. However, if I am in your home, just let me know the house rules and we’re good to go! :)
“We simply adore Haley. She’s so kind and caring with Grace. Grace is a very anxious dog and challenging to get her to engage. She’s so patient with her. So glad we met her and she’s part of our lives!”
About: I’m a pet lover, home all day and really spend time with them as my own. Experienced with puppy as well as senior care administrating medication and keeping special diet. Working remote and home all day with my friendly old dog 🐶 dexter, who loves to meet other dogs and play with them in our big fenced backyard. I’m home all day and supervise dogs activity and spend time with them on regular basis. We have good fenced backyard where dogs can run freely and have fun.
“William was great with my senior chihuahua. He was very responsive with messaging, and it was clear that he took a calm and intentional approach to building trust with my dog while making sure all her needs were met. Would definitely book with him again!”

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 Laskay 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 Laskay 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 Laskay 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.
