“Andrea was a great choice to watch Frank for the month that I traveled abroad with my family, She gave me constant updates and was able to cater to Frank's special needs (diabetes). Frank seemed really happy during his stay, so as a dog parent that made me feel very comfortable. I highly recommend Andrea and I will be using her services frequently in the future.”
“Audrey was absolutely amazing!!! She did a meet and greet at a park before booking, which I super appreciated, and then was easy to communicate with and sent lots of pictures and updates throughout her stay!!! I’m an anxious dog parent so having her look after Roxy and treat her as her own was perfect. I absolutely would book her again!!!!!”
“Even though my dog caused them a lot of trouble, Kevin&Kayla still loved my dog until the end. I'm grateful to them. They are very nice people. If they would allow me, I would like to ask them again.”
“Rachel's family took my pup in for a weekend on very short notice. Kind, caring, communicative, and big Tom came back a tired and happy boy. Would definitely recommend!”
“Kelsey was very friendly, and she provides an excellent place for dogs at her residence . Also very helpful & flexible with scheduling. We look forward to using her again in the near future!”
“Chinel and Cristian exceeded all expectations. They responded immediately to questions and sent lots of updates and pics. My dog loved her time and spent the next day sulking because she missed her new dog friend Benny and being so spoiled with belly rubs and cuddles. It was also a very hot weekend and Chinel and Cristian were extremely thoughtful and conscientious taking Wembley on shaded walks and putting their own cooling kerchief on her. I highly recommend leaving your fur babies in their kind and responsible hands. Thank you so much Chinel, Cristian and Benny!!!”
“Amelia was very phenomenal taking care of my dog Tails. She was also very accommodating and understanding when I couldn't make it on time for pick up due to flight disruption. Strongly recommended to everyone for her outstanding service.”
“Molly had a fantastic stay with Jane! Jane was a life saver for us when another staycation for Molly fell through. We will definitely check with Jane again the next time we need a place for Molly.”
“Bianca was great. Sent tons of updates while I was away, took a max out on a bunch of adventures with her other dogs and had he had a happy and healthy stay. Can’t ask for more. Would definitely book with Bianca again.”

“Michelle was absolutely wonderful with my high-energy working dog! She was communicative, send awesome pictures throughout the stay, and was just wonderful in general. Thank you Michelle!”
About: Since I can remember I’ve had such a love for animals and their beautiful personalities and energy. Since approximately 12 years of age I’ve cared for and raised dogs. My husband and I have had two wonderful companions for 16-18 years who are sadly no longer with us. We continue to want to have animals in our life and help where we can. We have experience with puppies , middle aged, and senior pups and love all the stages that each age ranges bring. With family member we understand the utmost care and trust is needed. When we had our two dogs our lives definitely revolved around the both of them. Whether it be walking, feeding, playing and medications - they always came first. They were family. Our home consists of 2.5 floors. We have hardwood and carpets (runners) available for dogs who have traction issues. We can carry dogs that weigh up to 20 Ibs up and down if needed if they are older and also utilize baby gates. Water is available up and down and we also have AC.
“Can’t say enough good things about Jena. Our sweet Coco has the best home away from home when Jena takes care of her. I think Coco may even prefer Jena’s home with all the love and attention (and adventures) she gets when visiting. Highly recommend!!!!”
“Excellent people from start to finish! Looked after a Oliver last minute, sent photos and were very understanding of the circumstances that made me late for pickup. Will definitely have them care for Oliver again!”
“Stacy took great care of Willow. She shared pictures throughout the stay showing Willow having the best time. Stacy provided easy communication. You can tell that she is a genuine animal lover. Greatly appreciate how Willow was treated like part of the family.”
“Angela was so great to work with and took such good care of my girl, Millie. She was so friendly, responsible and clearly cared about making sure my dog was happy and well looked after. She sent loads of pictures and updates, which I really appreciated! I would not hesitate to book with Angela again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”

We couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for Blondie while we were on vacation. The communication was really good from the very beginning. They kept us updated and send photos. Our dog was happy, relaxed, and being genuinely cared for. We truly appreciated the extra effort and love shown during our time away. We would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. We will definitely be booking again!
This was the best decision I have made. Courtney and Ben welcomed Enzo into their home and truly gave him the most amazing g experience. I am very thankful I came across their profile and I hope that Enzo will get to have many more stays with them in the future ! Thank you !!!!
What can I say about Julie and Cody. They are hands the best possible dog sitters i've ever met in my life. My dog is my family and I am very careful with who I leave my dog with. I was away in Mexico for a week and left my Marcus with Julie and Cody. They treated him like family. My dog loved being there! Food ran out, and they went out and got more (the exact brand he eats). They are also such kind people and my dog could sense that. They are super professional and work from home so gave my pup so much attention, he was never alone. Their home is organized and clean! They snuggled with Marcus most nights and walked him a lot! My dog has never been more comfortable. In fact, he didn't want to leave when we picked him up. While taking care of my dog, they gave me daily updates and even sent pictures. Just wonderful. I am very grateful to Julie and Cody and will only be leaving my dog with them from now on. Any dog owner would be lucky to leave their dog with Julie and Coy.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Metchosin home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favourite hang-out spots in your Metchosin
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
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 dog, 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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 83% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
