“Danny was great and very acknowlegable with the cats and very competent with our diabetic cat. She had no problems with giving insulin and needles and the cats seem to enjoy her time there. Danny was also very good with time and was there within the time frame given even woth her busy schedule. I would be glad to recommend her to anyone that needs a sitter especially with cats with extra needs. Thanks Danny B. very much for your time and effort.”
“Miranda is the best! We have a very elderly cat and typically when we go away for a few days, we have our neighbors check in on him. However, he demands a little bit more attention and love these days and because we were going away for a full week we thought it best to have one designated person to come in and tend to him. Miranda was absolutely the best choice! She gave us daily check ins and photos and took that worry completely off of our minds while we enjoyed our first sunny family vacation together. 10 out of 10 would recommend to all my friends and will definitely be booking her in the future!”
“An excellent job. Alexandra took perfect care of my baby. Lots of pets, play time and pictures to prove it. Attention to detail means everything to me and Alexandra has it in spades. I'll be hiring her again no problem.”
About: I have cared for, and trained, dogs from 5 weeks old to seniors . I have provided medication when needed to not only my own dogs but others when required. I will walk/ exercise your pets as if they are my own or as you request me to do. I will love your dog as if it were my own. I work for HRCE so now that school is back in I’m back to work. I only work 1 hr a day as I am a lunch monitor at a nearby school for 11:15 - 12:15 M-F as long as there are classes. I have a small (21lbs) chihuahua/Shiz Tzu that has to come with me to your home as he cannot be left overnight without me. I will treat your pet and your home as if it were my own. I will play with and feed your pet according to the schedule set by you (the owner), give love and attention, if they are a cuddly pet. I have a small, very friendly,dog (22lbs) that I would bring with me to your home as he can’t be left without me.
About: I've had loads of pet experience over the years, from early childhood to present day. I grew up in a rural setting where there were always animals around...farm animals such as chickens, pigs and turkeys. As for house pets, I've had MANY...several dogs over the years, too many cats to count, rabbits and hamsters. In my younger years I had a Poodle, a Samoyed, a Beagle and Cocker Spaniel. As for cats, well...let's just say our family was crazy for cats...I remember at one point in my youth, I had 10 at once! Later in life my husband and I had two Maincoons (Missy and Buster) who were literally the loves of our lives. We still miss them terribly and always think about them. In my 20s I worked at a pet store, where I also took care of the animals there (cats, dogs, hamsters, birds and fish). In my 30s I worked as a dog walker, which was very rewarding and so, so much fun. I would walk and care for three to six on any given day. I would pick them all up at each of their homes, each taking their preferred seat in my Jeep (the smallest one always insisting she sit in the front seat) and head out on our adventures for the day! These days I have several dogs in my orbit that belong to family members and friends. We have one in particular that we care for in our home periodically for our friends...Gordon the golden doodle, a.k.a. our nephew. All that being said I feel that I have a lot of experience and love to offer your fur babies, along with an endless supply of hugs, snuggles and kisses! Halifax is my permanent home but commute out of province for work. I am home for roughly half of the month, days vary but on average I'm home anywhere from 13-18 days a month and usually anywhere from 6-13 days at a time. I do get my schedule one month in advance on the 25th of each month, at which point I would update my calendar. I currently care for a friends dog periodically when they are away for a few days or sometimes longer. He has the run of the house, not crated and sleeps with us...not spoiled at all. We of course take him on walks and have play time...all the time.
About: Growing up on a farm, I’ve been training and nurturing animals my whole life. I’m responsible, reliable, patient, intuitive, adaptive, communicative, observant, affectionate & trustworthy. I have a flexible daily routine and can easily adapt to your fur baby’s schedule of feeding, exercise, play time and activities. Cuddles are unlimited! Pet care is the priority, but so is your home - rubbish bins, plant/garden care, light snow removal - making sure all is safe & secure.
About: I have grown up with both dogs and cats in my life, growing up with two huskies and two cats. From pet sitting for friends and family to fostering a cat in university! I am currently enrolled in a bachelor of education and also playing competitive soccer. I have my own vehicle and a flexible schedule throughout the week and am free on the weekends! I have lots of experience in pet sitting in other people’s homes either overnight or check ins during the day, providing a caring and safe environment for all pets
“Svetlana sent me pics and videos each day, and it was clear that my kitties were happy to see her. She was so gentle with them! I would definitely book her again the next time I need to go away.”
About: When your fuzzbud comes to stay with my partner Patrick and I, they enjoy fresh ocean air, playtime, warmth and companionship. I work from home Tues/Thurs, and am just a short 3 min drive away M/W/F. On those days, Pat comes home for a lunch time walk between 11am-12pm. We live in a cozy bungalow on a quiet street, just steps from the ocean and close to wooded trails. We have an unfenced forested area in the back with a secure long leash setup for quick breaks, and we love getting outside for walks and little adventures. If you’re travelling, we’d love to be your pet’s home away from home. You can expect lots of care, affection, patience, and calm, attentive energy - so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry friend is in good hands. ❤️ I can be available during the work week (with drop-off before 8:30am). I teach online classes at home during the day Tues/Thursday, but can always offer an early morning/lunch break walk, afternoon yard breaks, and a longer 4:30 trail walk. I care for pets in a calm, safe, and welcoming home environment. Feel free to drop your pet off for an overnight stay, or book them in for longer while you travel worry-free!! I can also do house checks or evening walks!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lower Sackville
Danny is incredible! She looked after Sagan for nearly a whole month and was so knowledgeable and attentive. Her communication was great, and she followed every instruction perfectly, including helping give Sagan his medications. We are so grateful for her amazing help and highly recommend her!
Catherine was absolutely amazing to deal with while we were away over New Years and gave us so much peace of mind. They were very well cared for and appreciate the updates and pictures each day, they're very affectionate and clearly loved having her there ❤️ It's our first time using rover and had an excellent experience!

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.

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.
