“If you are in the Scarborough area and looking for dog-sitters that will treat your pooch(es) like their own, you must book with Jacky and Yunn. I highly recommend them! They have a lovely and cozy home in Scarborough and took such great care of our Timmie while my family and I were out of the country. Yunn communicated with me at least 5 times a day, sending photos and videos as requested. They were also very accommodating for the drop-off and pick-up time. Jacky and Yunn, thank you so much for taking care of Timmie during our time away. We will book you guys again if there's another opportunity :)”
“Kelly and her family is very experienced on dogs. Coco had great time during her stay and I have to say she was kept quite clean, giving she's a samoyed that's all white. Kelly also sent short videos and pictures that gave us peace in mind while we were away. Thanks very much! We will utilize the service in the future for sure.”

“Carrie was an absolutely fantastic dog sitter. Carrie took care of our 5 year old corgi, Frankie, for a week and our dog had a fantastic time. We’ve never left our dog with a sitter for boarding before and Carrie immediately eased our nerves with plenty of daily updates and photos. Carrie also provided plenty of walks in the morning and evening that kept our energetic corgi active. I also appreciate that she followed all of our notes and directions regarding feeding and medication. Overall, we are very happy with Carrie and would recommend her to anyone needing a dog sitter and/or boarding.”
“Rachel is a wonderful dogsitter and took amazing care of our fur baby. She was attentive to all of his needs and communicated with us regularly so we were always informed on how our baby was doing. After not eating much the first day, Rachel went the extra step and cooked plain chicken for him on the second day to ensure his belly was not empty. She gave our fur baby lots of love, attention and cuddles. We would not hesitate to leave our baby with Rachel in the future. Thank you Rachel!!!”

“I cannot recommend Lushi highly enough! Her commitment is unmatched, she didn't just "watch" my dog; she showered him with genuine affection, kept him active, and followed every single instruction to a tee. I received regular updates, adorable photos, and I could tell from his happy face that he was having the time of his life. It’s such a relief to travel knowing my dog is in such capable and loving hands. If you’re looking for a sitter who is professional, communicative, and truly passionate about animals, look no further. Lushi is a total gem!”
“Andy and Rose watched my dog, London, as a long-term stay (~5 months). They were so incredibly helpful during this time - keeping my updated on how she was, sending pics, etc. Over the 5 months they grew to love her, and London grew to love them! I would absolutely highly recommend booking with them for your pup!”
“I recently had the pleasure of leaving my dog Zeke, a Maltipoo, in Nikita’s care for a week, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Zeke is used to living in a house with frequent potty breaks, so I was a bit nervous about how he’d adjust to staying in a condo. But Nikita went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable, giving him plenty of breaks and long walks—and even letting him enjoy the balcony views, which he loved! Nikita and her partner made Zeke feel right at home, kept up with all his routines, and were incredibly responsive to his needs. I also really appreciated the frequent photo updates that gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Zeke was being treated with love and care, just as if he were their own dog. They even made him feel extra special on his last day which also happened to be his birthday! I would absolutely recommend Nikita to anyone looking for a kind, attentive, and reliable dog sitter. We’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Xin has watched Abu a couple of times now and is always amazing! Super reliable, easy to communicate with, and Abu loves her. We feel totally at ease knowing our dog is in great hands.”
“Laifu had such a great time with Jennifer and Yulin! When we picked her up, we could tell she was so well loved and cared for. They sent us daily photos and updates, even asked if we wanted them to help with things like brushing her teeth, and made sure she got plenty of outdoor time every day. We really appreciate how thoughtful they were, we’d definitely love for Laifu to stay with them again!”

Liz did a great job looking after our puppy! This was our dog olive’s first time being watched by someone other than us and it seems as though she had a great stay. Liz constantly sent pictures keeping us updated on how she was doing, how much she was eating and how she was getting along with other dogs. It was really nice to have those updates throughout the days we were away from our puppy as it gave us the reassurance we needed to have a good time being away. We would definitely recommend Liz and next time we need a sitter, we would definitely consider booking with Liz again. Thank you!!
Henry had a wonderful week with Susan, Gordon and their family. We could not have asked for more. Susan took care of his meds, baths and special diet related to allergies. He had a total blast in their backyard oasis along with Chelsea and their grandchildren coming and going. He is home now and out cold following his full-on staycation. Thank you Susan and family.
Monique was an excellent sitter for my dog Kingston. He stayed over for a night and the whole time her was there I got lots of pictures and updates. She made sure Kingston was always happy and comfortable. I could tell he really felt as home as he relaxed settled pretty quickly. When he came home he was calm and happy - the way I like it when he comes home from another’s care. I also appreciated how she was thorough during our meet and greet to make sure she really got to know him and the ensure that he would be a good fit. I could also tell that safety was her number one priority for the dogs that would be under her care. I will definitely be using her services again! Thank you Monique for taking such great care of Kingston.
I cannot recommend Brant enough! He took such amazing care of Yoshi and treated him like family. I loved receiving photo updates of him looking so happy, relaxed, and bonding together. It is clear that Brant truly understands and loves dogs. I felt completely at ease leaving Yoshi here and will absolutely book again!
Having just moved to the area and knowing no one, we were nervous to leave our 3 fur babies. Lushi proved that all fears were unwarranted. She could not have been more wonderful to our pups or communicative with us. We will definitely be joining her many other returning costumers.
We had an amazing experience! From the moment we dropped off Sugar and Snow, we knew they were in great hands. We received pictures and updates every single day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear they were being cared for with genuine love and attention. Sugar and Snow came home happy, relaxed, and well looked after. We’re incredibly grateful for the excellent care and communication throughout our trip. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter!
Laura was an amazing pet sitter. I couldn’t be more happier with her service and care for my girl Ruby. She went above and beyond to ensure Ruby’s stay with her was as fun and comfortable as possible and would highly recommend her as a sitter to anyone. I would also be contacting her again without a doubt in the future if I need a sitter for Ruby again
Would highly recommend Samantha! She took amazing care of our dog Thibault and he was all smiles the whole drive home when we picked him up. Samantha kept us up to date with many photos and videos throughout the day as well. We are planning to book with Samantha again!
Oreo and Oslo recently stayed with Janice for almost two weeks, and they had a wonderful time. She kept me updated every day with photos, videos, and messages, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. The dogs came home happy, clean, fluffy, and clearly very well cared for, despite the rainy weather during their stay. I could tell they received lots of attention and affection. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Janice again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Markham on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
