“Nikki was absolutely wonderful with my kitty! She took such great care of her, making sure she was fed, played with, and received all of her medications. I especially appreciated how attentive and gentle she was, and how she kept me updated every day with pictures. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my kitty was in such caring hands while I was away. Nikki was reliable, kind, and truly went above and beyond. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“I could tell Lob(cat) was well cared for while I was away. Excellent communication and regular updates with photos. I would recommend Toni to anyone who needs a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Emy was wonderful. Very professional. Treated my cat as her own. She truly is an animal lover. I would not hesitate in using Emy again should I require services. If you are looking for someone special to look after your pets Emy definitely is that person”
About: Don't wanna walk in the snow? I will. Don't wanna walk in the rain or after work? I will. Currently I own a female Rottweiler so I understand how important play time and being active with pets is. I also enjoy it. I am available during days, early morning or late evening walks or visits. If you are out for the night or have a early day. I do not walk more than 2 dogs at a time so your dog gets my attention and is safe. Rottweilers are also very clumsy so I do keep a puppy proof environment for boarding , good for overnight stays. I live right across the street from a vet & animal hospital incase of any emergencies. I live close to several trails, the boardwalk and a beach, so dogs will enjoy the walks. My work schedule is very flexible & close to home. Morning, afternoon & evening time’s available. Holidays will be available which can be hard to find someone. I have a very clumsy big dog so my home is clean, free of obstructions, edges, food etc for safety. Lots if space & comfy mats / beds for pets. Toys are kept in safe locations when its not play time.
“Tania took care of our three cats for 10 days and did an amazing job ! She not only fed them but also gave them cuddles and pilled our 18 year old. We highly recommend her and will definitely have her cat sit for us again !”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have been caring for them since I was about 10 years old. Even before having my own dog, I regularly helped by walking neighborhood dogs of all sizes. One of those was a Rottweiler who had some behavioral challenges with strangers but bonded well with me, and I was trusted to walk him regularly when other walkers had difficulty. I’ve often been told I have a calm, reassuring energy that dogs seem to respond to naturally. Over the years, I’ve had hands-on experience with dogs of many breeds, sizes, and personalities, including rescues and foster dogs. I’ve also helped a close friend who worked with the SPCA by assisting with dog transport, including last-minute and emergency placements to and from foster homes. My first personal dog was a Husky–Malamute mix named Cody, whom I adopted from the SPCA at around 3–4 years old. He came with some challenges due to his previous living situation, but with consistency, patience, and an environment better suited to his needs, he became a wonderful companion. He was great with kids, cats, and other animals and lived a long, happy life into his senior years. I’ve also fostered a Pit Bull mix for several months until she found her forever home. In a previous chapter of my life, I shared a home with a German Shepherd and a German Shepherd/Rottweiler mix, and caring for them gave me a deeper appreciation for structure, routine, and clear communication — especially with intelligent, energetic dogs. While I’m not a trainer, I’ve always taken the time to work with my dogs in a patient, consistent way to help them feel secure and well-mannered. Currently, I have a young German Shepherd / Black Mouth Cur mix who is my daily companion. We focus on routine, enrichment, and basic obedience, and he’s a happy, social, people-friendly goof who’s often by my side. I’ve also had cats my entire life and currently live with two, so I’m very comfortable caring for dogs in multi-pet households. While much of my experience happens to be with larger and working breeds, I genuinely enjoy caring for dogs of all sizes. I find that when you understand dog behavior and communication, those skills translate naturally to smaller breeds as well. My approach is calm, attentive, and respectful of each dog’s individual needs, and my goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. As a business owner with a detailing shop in Milton, I have a very flexible schedule. I’m not confined to a traditional 9–5, which allows me to step in and out as needed throughout the day. Bookings are always planned and accommodated in advance, making midday visits, early mornings, evenings, and weekends very doable. I’m able to adjust my schedule to ensure pets receive consistent care, attention, and timely walks or check-ins. When pets are in my home, their safety and comfort are always my top priority. I do have a dog of my own, but my home is set up so dogs can be fully separated if needed, including having their own space and routine. If a pet is reactive or prefers to be alone, accommodations can easily be made. During the day, my dog is often at my shop with my husband, so he is not present when I’m doing walks, drop-ins, or day care outside the home. My yard is partially fenced, with plans to be fully fenced this year. In the meantime, I have designated tie-outs (over 50 feet) to allow for safe outdoor play. The property sits on approximately half an acre, providing plenty of space for movement and enrichment, along with lots of toys. I can easily crate pets if needed and have crates, separate food and water bowls, and supplies on hand. I also encourage owners to bring their pet’s bed or familiar items to help with comfort and settling in. I’m very flexible, communicative, and always happy to work with each pet’s individual needs.
About: Experinced pet sitter specialized in high-energy dogs like my 2 yrs old pup! I've been through it all-puppy antics, sick days, training adventures. I will provide a personalized and loving care for your fur baby. I work from home most of the week. The comfort of the pup is my priority, so I take multiple breaks which are perfect for play sessions and quick pee breaks. I live by a few nice trails and 1 energetic pup to keep any furry friend happy and entertained. I'm also very respectful of other people's home, and I can follow instructions properly.

About: As a lifelong dog lover, I grew up surrounded by dogs and currently have two of my own. I trained both of them from puppy stage, giving me hands-on experience with training and daily care. I pride myself on being responsible, patient, and genuinely caring with every dog I look after. I usually work from home, and generally walk my dogs 2-3 times a day. I have a small and medium sized dog so daily walks are non negotiable. I won’t accept clients for days I go into the office. I have a fenced yard and have 2 friendly dogs at home so your pup will always be entertained if they want to. My 5yo child also loves dogs and is very gentle with them.
About: I’ve owned and taken care of pets for most of my life. Growing up my family has had dogs, cats, bunnies, fish and even a cockatiel. I’ve house sat and dog sat multiple times and come away with a new best friend each time. I work full time from home during the week on a fully flexible schedule. I can essentially take breaks from work whenever I need throughout the day to attend to any errands or responsibilities on my schedule, pet care included. I am generally pretty free in the evenings & weekends. I am a young, agile and strong pet lover who can adapt to the animal I am with. For bigger more domineering animals I am comfortable taking care of them & for more docile pet I can be a delicate gentle teddy bear as well!

“We were so fortunate to have Julia-Maria watch over our fur babies over the Christmas holiday. She was very quick to respond to any of our messages and sent daily updates/photos of both our cats. I would highly recommend her services your pets will be in good hands. I think my cats were disappointed when I got home I honestly think they were waiting for her instead lol. Her friendly calm personality is a perfect fit for anyone's pet. You will not regret booking her.”
“Amyaz and Shareefa were awesome with Fig. They checked in on her over the weekend while I was away. They made sure Fig was fed and had enough water, and they took some time to play fetch with her, which she loves. They sent many photos and videos to help give me peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend!”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Milton stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 Milton 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!
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.

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.
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.
