“As always, Nova had a wonderful week with Lizzy. She always looks forward to her visits as Lizzy is incredibly thoughtful and thorough. Lizzy really cares for Nova’s happiness and well-being. Lizzy is a gem and we’re all so grateful for her!”

“Wenge was very sweet and very attentive to my elderly cat, Olive. I especially appreciated the fact that she was willing and able to come and house/cat sit at very short notice after I was gifted a surprise two night get-away. Thank you SO much, Wenge.”

“Our two Chocolate Labs were in great shape when we got home. Appreciated seeing pictures of them enjoying their kiddie pool and hearing when they were napping since this was our first time hiring Elle. Will definitely be using her services again for our next adventure! 💕”

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong passion for animals and extensive hands-on experience. I've cared for my own dogs and cats since childhood, helped foster puppies and dogs, gained professional experience caring for animals, and spent years providing trusted pet care for friends, family, and neighbours. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I recently completed my Master's degree at the University of Waterloo and am excited to spend more time doing something I genuinely love: caring for animals. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I enjoy staying active through walks while providing pets with the attention, companionship, and care they need. My flexible schedule allows me to be available throughout the day and week, making it easy to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize keeping them comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I take the time to learn each pet's preferences, exercise needs, feeding schedule, and any special instructions to ensure they feel safe and secure while their owners are away. I have experience entering and caring for clients' homes through previous positions, so I understand the importance of being respectful, responsible, and trustworthy in someone else's space. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, administering routine care, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet and home with the same care and attention I would give my own. For services in my home, I live in a pet-friendly apartment with access to secure walking routes, a fenced play area, and a nearby fenced dog park for exercise and enrichment.
About: I have dog sat and walked dogs for over a year now. One of the dogs was a service dog. As long as I have clear instructions on how to take care of your beloved pets, I will make sure to follow it, and give it all the attention they need. I am free all day from Friday to Monday, and Wednesday. The two days I am not available are Tuesdays and Thursdays for now. Since I am student, my schedule can vary. I will make sure to give ample time for these updates. I am willing to offer house-sitting services, as my apartment does not allow pets in my home. I appreciate it when rules and instructions are clearly written down, whether on a docs document, or even on a paper. I love dogs and will give them all the love and attention required! I follow instructions well, and if you have any rules that must be followed, or training to be reinforced, I will gladly do so. I would appreciate if the first time meeting your pet, I could be introduced by the owner, to not scare the dogs. Transparency is important to me, if there are behaviours I should be mindful of please share it with me, I am here to help, not to judge.
“Our cat Toast had a wonderful week with Jean. Jean was super communicative both before and during the stay, and sent great updates daily with photos and videos of Toast. Toast gets a daily inhaler for her asthma, which Jean was able to give her without problems. Toast also has higher energy and it seemed like she got lots of good play time! I'm very grateful for the peace of mind we had while we were away knowing our kitty was in good hands and I would definitely rebook with Jean in the future when we are away again!”

“Kara is a great house and dog sitter. I felt that my dog was well taken care of. She understands dogs so well and genuinely happy to be with your dog. Very professional, polite and tidy. Highly recommend.”

“Soph has been amazing with Pixie, she was respectful to the space, and also very caring. She sent lots of videos and pictures, kept me updated and Pixie was happy when I came back :) highly recommend Soph for your fur babies! and also, I won't hesitate having her as a sitter again”

About: I have taken care of many pets since I’m a child, so I’m very experienced and love to stay with them. I would love to provide the same care to your pet. I’m home full time, so I can care for the dogs according to your schedule based on their daily routine. I can keep them like home. I’m serious about keeping them safe and healthy, so I’ll watch them full time whenever they’re having meals, take rests or interacting with each other.
About: I have been a pet parent all of my life. I grew up on a farm with every sort of animal. My parents bred Dachshunds and American Eskimos. Currently, I am mom to a rescued Frenchie girl with a heart murmur. She has a Grade 3 of 6 heart murmur which makes me especially familiar with special needs animals. Being a Frenchie mom also means that I am aware of the special needs of Brachycephalic dog breeds (especially during the hot summer months). I worked in a privately owned holistic pet store for more than four years helping customers find the right food, treats and remedies for their fur babies. There is no more satisfying feeling than the results of the help I provided. Seeing the transformation of the fur baby and the happiness that it brought to their pet parent ❤️ I also fostered for Niagara Dog Rescue for a brief period before finding my forever girls. I dealt with dogs with behavioural issues and showed them that not all humans hurt or leave. No request or care detail is ever overlooked. Post walk paw cleaning, face fold cleaning, special post walk treats... Clean water from a freshly washed bowl. Whatever your pup needs will be done. I practice Cesar Millan's techniques and am a calm and confident walker. However; I also know how super important it is for pups to have the opportunity for enrichment through sniffing. All dogs are the cute, cuddle kind. I can't wait to meet yours! I'm home full time other than when walking or checking on fur friends. Your fur family will be able to get as much time and love as they need while you are out/away. In my home, your fur babies become adopted family and will be given the freedom to roam and cuddle wherever they like. If your fur baby needs the safe space of a crate, that is completely doable.
About: FIRST TIME BOOKING WITH ROVER? RECEIVE $20 OFF WITH MY CODE: KIRAO92445 I love being around animals. I have had many cats all my life and now I have a Husky named Aurora who is an absolute joy to care for . I have a 3 story townhouse with lots of space for playing and a fenced in yard with space to run and have unlimited potty breaks! Aurora loves other dogs and is not aggressive at all(she's not spayed). I am available around the clock to keep an eye on your furbabies and/or have a vehicle to visit your home for walks and anything else your pet needs. My cats keep to themselves but do not appreciate being chased, I can arrange to keep them in a separate room if need be. I can't wait to hear about all your little cuties and arrange for a time to meet you and them! I am a hairstylist working from home, I work part time as a beauty advisor and hangout with pets with the rest of my free time :) Because I have a fenced yard I can offer many potty breaks if needed and Aurora is available all day to play and tire your pup out! If your pup needs a lot of walks, I can also provide that no problem whatsoever.
About: I grew up with animals around me while growing up on a farm. I love them, I respect their space and boundaries, and I always try to make them feel comfortable and loved ❤️ Available 7 days a week. Very flexible schedule even on the weekends. I typically spend my day taking care of my 3 cats with varying needs. I will respect your home and do my best to keep it clean and tidy while I’m there. I’ll make sure your pet is comforable, with plenty of play and exercise! I’ll make sure to clean food and water bowls, clean up their waste areas (litterboxes, pee pads, etc.), and give many cuddles if they're comfortable with me!
“Sarah was great with our 7 month old puppy. He sustained an injury the day she came and before she was to start watching him. We were away and unable to take him to the vet to determine what the issue was. Sarah took him on our behalf and then made sure he had both his medication along with the rest he needed to recover. Her dedication and commitment to making sure he was well was greatly appreciated. We highly recommend Sarah for her services she offers and look forward to having her back with our pup again soon.”

About: I’m currently a fourth year student studying psychology at the University of Waterloo. I came to Ontario for school and is away from home. I have always grew up with dogs my whole life, I love to be around them and also take good care of them. Being in a foreign region without having my dogs around have been a little bit tough and I miss them a lot! Therefore I would love to take care of other dogs and play with them when their owners are not available. I haven’t had any professional experiences, only personal but would love to gain more experience from different opportunities! I love to run and jog, so I can take dogs on small jogs too! Thank you s I currently work full-time but am more than happy to spend time with your dog after work as well as weekends. Let me know your schedule and we can work something out! I will be able to perform what the owner would like me to do. Whether that is taking them on walks daily no matter the weather, taking them to the park, or simply just keeping them company
About: I am home all day to Love and Protect your pet. My home is quiet and my arms are open for pups, seniors, those in-between & even your quirky rescue. Animals aren’t a side hobby for me; they’ve been the central thread of my life. I grew up caring for and training horses and dogs, which taught me to read animal body language before I could even read books. Raising puppies is my true love—they fill my heart and soul. Over the years, I have loved and cared for five of my own dogs from their very first puppy steps all the way to their final resting places—including my Shepherd (Max), my Rottweiler (Misty), my Golden/Rottie mix (Maisy), and my Golden Retriever (Lily). From years of agility training to countless puppy classes at McCann’s, I’ve poured my life into understanding and bonding with dogs. While I am on Rover to offer boarding, housesitting, and drop-in care—not formal training services—my deep background means your pet is in exceptionally skilled, safe hands. I have been a puppy raiser for National Service Dogs, successfully raising a pup who graduated to assist a first responder with PTSD. I also have a deep comfort level with rescues and senior dogs—whether it's connecting and gaining the trust of a reactive rescue Pitbull/Rottweiler mix for five months, or catering to the slow, gentle pace of a sweet 15-year-old Dachshund like Diesel. Whether you have a brand-new puppy who needs consistent crate training and patience, an elder statesdog who needs extra care, or a rescue who requires an experienced handler who truly understands their world, I offer a level of intuition, safety, and genuine love that goes far beyond standard pet sitting. I also provide drop-in care for cats who prefer staying in their own kingdom. You can travel knowing your pet is being cherished as one of my own. PS. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and I may encourage them to hop up on the bed Because I m home full-time, your pet becomes the primary focus. They won't be left alone for long stretches or stuck in a crate while someone works a 9-to-5. My home is a quiet, predictable environment where your puppy can get the frequent potty breaks they need, or your senior dog can get the peace, quiet, and cuddles they deserve. Whether they are staying with me or I am visiting them, they get my undivided attention, endless affection, and a seamless continuation of their normal daily routine. My home will be an extension of yours - whatever rules your pets have - the use of crates, or not; on or off furniture, specific feeding or walk times. I am here to support. My yard is not fenced, which means more time together outside (on leash).
“Isabella was a wonderful sitter! She clearly loves animals and was absolutely amazing with my dogs. She was very timely, communicated clearly throughout the day, and made sure to follow all instructions carefully. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos — it gave me peace of mind knowing the dogs were in great hands. I would definitely book her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mannheim
We went away for 3 nights and alex provided great care for our two puppies, one got sick right before we left and he provided the extra care she needed so we could be at peace while we were away. Communication was great throughout his stay and as a bonus we came home to a clean & tidy home.

We cannot thank Sarah enough after she cared for our little Luna in our home for 2 weeks! Not only did Sarah provide us with daily updates and photos, but she went above and beyond when she noticed Luna’s nose was dry and asked to apply nose balm on her. We are not at all surprised to come home to our happy girl, who was so well taken care for two weeks! We are so grateful for Sarah and will definitely be booking her again!

MJ stayed with our 2 kitties and dog Frankie for 10 days recently. We had never left our quirky senior rescue pup with anyone other than family in the 10 plus years we’ve had her. To say we were stressed about it would be an understatement. Then we found MJ. We were able to leave and enjoy our time away without worrying at all about the animals. Frankie warmed right up to her and she can be reactive with new people. We immediately felt confident MJ was more than capable in handling her behaviours. She was awesome about learning the routines of the animals, even the silly little things we do and was great about keeping in touch with photos and messages while we were gone. MJ also took awesome care of the house as well. Leaving it better than we left it even. We couldn’t recommend her more and are so thankful to have found her!

Christine did a wonderful job taking care of our dog Pepper overnight at our house. Pepper is anxious around new people but warmed up quickly to Christine. She sent us updates and pictures throughout her stay. We will definitely be booking her again in the future. Thank you Christine!

Shannon is absolutely amazing. It was our first time using dog/house sitter services and we were a little nervous. Shannon put us at ease from the moment we met her. She is responsible, detail oriented, conscientious, and loves dogs. From the caring messages and photos she sent us every day, to the spotless house we came home to, Shannon exceeded our expectations in every way. She took exceptional care of our house and dog for a week, and we would not hesitate to do it again.

Talia was incredible! She watched my 10 month old puppy over a weekend and gave him the best care we could have asked for. Her communication was very thorough - she sent lots of updates, asked questions when she needed to. She even offered to clean up the house a bit before we arrived home. Will be booking Talia 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 Mannheim 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 Mannheim 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 Mannheim 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.
