“Raidz basically made a liar of me when Vania stayed at our place. I told Vania she will ignore her as she doesn't like other people. Raidz took to Vania right away, rubbing against her, letting her pet her and showing Vania her belly ! Loki also loved her right away. Being his first time away from his Mama, he was confused and wasn't eating properly but Vania was incredibly gentle and patient with him and was able to get him eating. It is obvious Vania is very much an animal person the way the kitties were around her. It was very comforting to see videos everyday and know my babies were being looked after ! Thank you Vania !!”
“It was nice having Kathryn to look after my boy Enzo! She came to my home to take care of my dog while I was away, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She was incredibly kind, reliable, communicative and attentive, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was in such great hands. I’m so grateful for her help and would absolutely book her again without hesitation! I can’t recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“Ashima was amazing with our little puppy. She was loving and playful. She is also great with her communication, kept us updated throughout with photos and general updates, which is so helpful. Honestly, Rory had a great time with Ashima, and we'd definitely want to book her again soon.”
About: With 2 years of pet-sitting experience, I provide loving, reliable, and attentive care to ensure your furry family members feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience caring for both playful puppies and sweet senior dogs, and I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether it’s keeping up with a puppy’s energy, providing extra patience and gentle care for an older dog, or simply offering companionship and cuddles, my goal is to make your pet feel right at home in their familiar environment. You can enjoy peace of mind knowing your beloved companion is in caring hands! 🐾 I’m available most mornings with additional availability on Tuesdays and Wednesdays throughout the day. Schedule can be flexible with availability (must text ahead to get desired date and time) I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide reliable, loving care! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide attentive, reliable care and take the time to understand each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. For drop-in visits and dog walks, I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment while providing plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship. I follow your instructions carefully, including feeding routines, medication instructions if applicable, leash preferences, and any important safety considerations. I believe in creating a calm, positive, and stress-free experience for every pet. During each visit or walk, I stay attentive to their behaviour and surroundings and will keep you updated with photos and a detailed note about how their visit went. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is in caring, responsible hands while you’re away. 🤍
“Aashni was amazing! She stayed at our house and took care of our two cats while we were travelling internationally for 3 weeks. She checked in every day and sent us lots of pictures and videos. She took wonderful care of our home and even did some tasks she didn't have to do. If I could hire her as my personal assistant I would :)”
About: I am a part-time teacher looking to get my steps in! lol I have two Dalmatians of my own, one of which is slowing down a little as he grows older. They absolutely do not need to join, but I can definitely handle high or low energy dogs, and can offer lots of time for sniffing or just bathroom breaks. I go to the dog park pretty frequently with my guys, if you’re interesting in having your dog socialize and join us, but of course we are happy to stick around your neighborhood and have on-leash play time. Just let me know what kind of care you are looking for and I’ll be happy to support 😘 I’m a part-time school teacher and will have most of my time available for walks through the summer and into the fall! Any scheduling can be discussed or at the very least, I can find someone who can help you out ☺️ My Dalmatians can join us to offer pack socialization or we can walk solo, depending on what your pet needs. I will follow whatever directions you leave with regards to length and intensity of the walk for your dog, while keeping in mind your pet’s safety.
“Xenia stayed at our place over the weekend to care for our dog and she was fantastic! She sent us photos and videos throughout the day to keep us updated and was respectful of the space. We’d be happy to have her care for Millie any time :)”
About: Zoology major and Veterinary Technician graduate with loads of animal handling and care experience. Pet CPR certified. Have basic dog training skills. Fear-free handling. Can provide other animal services (bathing, grooming, medication administration, nail trims). I currently work Part-time on the weekend and holidays. I have open availability on the weekdays. I can start as early as 6am all the way till 8pm. I usually care for my pet with a routine. Early morning start for a potty break.

About: I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they can stay as relaxed as possible in their own home. One thing that sets me apart is that I work from home, which allows me to spend much more time with the pets in my care. Rather than being away for a full workday, I’m able to provide plenty of companionship, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. This can be especially reassuring for pets who are anxious, young, or simply enjoy having someone around. I’m patient, dependable, and understand that every animal has different needs. Whether your pet loves to play, prefers quiet companionship, or just wants someone nearby while they nap, I’ll make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and in good hands. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own. My flexible, home-based lifestyle allows me to plan my schedule around the pets in my care. I can accommodate their usual feeding times, bathroom breaks, walks, and other daily needs while providing a consistent, comfortable routine. I also help care for my family dog when visiting my mom, so I understand the importance of reliability and keeping pets’ routines familiar while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities. Before each booking, I’ll learn about their routines, feeding requirements, medications, and any special instructions to ensure their care is tailored to their needs. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep it clean and secure, and send regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident that everything is going well while you’re away.
About: Caring for animals has always been part of my life. I have experience with different types of animals, each with their own personality and needs. I’m patient, caring, and reliable, whether I’m taking your dog for a walk, feeding your pets, or keeping them company while you’re away. I’ll follow their usual routine and your instructions to help them feel safe and comfortable, and I’m happy to send photos and updates. I work Monday through Thursday and plan pet care around my work schedule to give each pet the time and attention they need. On those days, I’m available for walks before 9 a.m., around 5 p.m. when I return home, and again before bedtime. On Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, I’m available throughout the day for walks, visits, and pet care. Please message me with your preferred dates and times so we can discuss your pet’s routine. I’ve recently began living with my dachshund Lulis, but previously I’ve helped my parents care for their more than 30 rescued animals. My home is welcoming, happy, and clean. I’m patient and attentive, and I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine and your care instructions to help them feel safe and comfortable. I’m also happy to send photos and updates while you’re away.
About: My name is Joanne, and I'm the go-to sitter and walker for friends, family, and neighbours whenever they're out of town. I take the time to learn each pet’s unique personality, including their likes, dislikes, quirks, and sensitivities, to make sure they feel safe, happy, and truly at home. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my top priorities. I'm attentive, patient, and tuned in to their needs and behaviours, making sure they're not just cared for, but genuinely cared about. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family member! On weekdays, I work from 8:30 am to 3:00 pm. Most weekends, I am free to walk or check-in on your pets throughout the entire day. I’m attentive and hands-on when it comes to caring for your pets, whether we’re out on a walk or relaxing at home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure their needs are met with care, patience, and love, creating a calm and secure environment where they can feel at ease.
“Mary was excellent as always. She watched our cat and house while we were away in Alaska for 10 days. She sends lots of pictures and updates. She follows his routine to a tee. He was very relaxed when we got home. She left the house exactly as it was when we left. Thanks again Mary!”
About: I have working experience as a house sitter with multiple animals with special needs. I excel at providing high quality care, attention to detail, and loving companionship while you are away from your loved ones. I work full time and am available evenings and weekends upon request, depending on availability. I would love to help on short notice if possible! I am not able to offer services in my home, but do have a vehicle evenings and weekends, can stay overnight in home with animals as needed, with request from clients, depending on availability.
About: My first cat lived until he was 16 and I took care of him since I was 10. My current cat is 4 and has some health issues so i’m able to administer oral medication. I also took care of the stray cat in my neighborhood by feeding her and playing with her and spending time with her. I also grew up playing with, and walking my grandparents dogs, so I have experience with young and old animals. Your pet will be in very good hands, and I look forward to meeting them! I currently work part time as a cashier, so my schedule is very open. I work approximately 4 days a week 4 or 5 hour shifts. I currently live with roommates so I would not be able to care for your pet at my house, but I am able to care for your pet at your house.
“I highly recommend Akash to care for your pet. Akash was caring and attentive and ensured my dog got all the attention he needed. Akash treated my dog as if he was his own and was able to handle my dog's big personality.”
About: I've been taking care of pets since I was 15 years old. I'm the loving, caring pet caretaker that everyone love to have. From Walks to Playtime, Your Furry Friend Deserves Only the Best. And I'll be the best for your mate. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine, as I naturally enjoy spending time with animals and ensuring their well-being. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize their needs by following their feeding schedules, providing regular exercise, and engaging them in fun and stimulating activities. I incorporate walks, playtime, and basic training exercises into my day to keep pets active and happy. If a pet requires special attention, such as medication or extra supervision, I make sure to adjust my schedule accordingly. Since I enjoy being outdoors and staying active, taking dogs on walks or engaging in interactive play fits seamlessly into my routine. My flexible schedule allows me to provide reliable and consistent care, ensuring that pets receive the attention and companionship they need throughout the day. I provide attentive and responsible pet care, whether in my home or my client’s home, ensuring that each pet feels comfortable, safe, and well-cared for. I follow the pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, and playtime, while also giving them plenty of attention and affection. For dogs, I ensure they get enough exercise through regular walks and interactive activities to keep them happy and stimulated. I also monitor their health, provide basic grooming when needed, and follow any specific instructions from the owner, such as administering medication or special dietary needs. In a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain a clean and organized environment while ensuring the pet remains comfortable in their familiar surroundings. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care so that pet owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are in safe hands.
About: I absolutely love being around animals! I have lived with dogs since I was 9, worked at a Veterinary Clinic, and worked at a Dog Kennel (boarding and daycare)! I will always jump on an opportunity to spend time with furry friends :) I'm currently in school full-time, but whenever I'm not busy I'll have lots of time to play with your pets! I'm typically on campus mid-day during the week, but my mornings, nights, and weekends are free! I can communicate my weekly schedule in advance to ensure we can book a time that works best for you, myself, and your pet :) From training I have received in the pet-care industry, I am able to walk, feed, play with, and crate pets if necessary! I really enjoy being around animals so I am eager to give your pet the care it deserves.

It was nice having Kathryn to look after my boy Enzo! She came to my home to take care of my dog while I was away, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She was incredibly kind, reliable, communicative and attentive, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was in such great hands. I’m so grateful for her help and would absolutely book her again without hesitation! I can’t recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!
Rosa was an incredible dog sitter for my two dogs Mimi and Lancelot. She was so attentive and loving to them and they enjoyed their daily walks with her and lots of cuddles. she shared many fun photos and videos as updates for us while we were away. We came home to two happy dogs and a very clean and tidy house. We will definitely book Rosa again.
Paula was absolutely wonderful with Ollie! She is extremely structured, calm, punctual, gentle, and caring — exactly the kind of person we needed for our big dog. This was our first trip away without Ollie, and Paula made the entire experience feel completely seamless and stress-free. We especially loved her adorable voice-note updates at the end of each day, walking us through everything Ollie had been up to and keeping us posted on her walks, meals, mood, and activities. It was so reassuring and genuinely made us feel connected to Ollie even while we were away. Paula also took incredible care of our home and left it sparkling clean when we returned. Most importantly, we could tell Ollie was comfortable and well cared for with her. We would absolutely trust Paula with Ollie again and she will definitely be one of our go-to sitters in the future. Highly recommend her!
Fantastic, we had Serena house/dog sitting for us while we were away for five days. Our dog Mango is a very nervous dog and Serena was able to win her trust and even sent us pictures of how Mango cuddled up next to her ❤️ We felt very comfortable with Serena and would recommend her highly.
We were scared of leaving our 12-weeks old pup with anyone else for the first time ever. Andrew is a fantastic soul. He visited us a day prior for “meet and greet” and introduce himself to us and the pup. On the day, he sent us photos and videos throughout the day to keep us updated - every small moment was shared. That felt super relieving. He went above and beyond to accommodate us and take extremely good care of our pup.
Klaudia watched our cats at our home while we were away for 3 nights and it was the best decision to hire her! Our cats loved her and we got so many sweet updates of our kitties enjoying their time with her. Her communication is amazing and it’s obvious she genuinely cares for animals. Thank you again Klaudia!
We had a great experience with Yingxue during our 10 day vacation. She took excellent care of Sprinkle (our cat) as well as our home. She was prompt in communicating with us and sent us tons of pictures, videos, and updates of our cat, which made us feel at ease during our holiday. Sprinkle was given lots of personal attention and love and Yingxue ensured that her routines and care instructions remained the same which greatly helped our cat adjust. She coordinated with us perfectly before the start, throughout the duration of the house sitting, and towards the end, making the whole process smooth. We will definitely be going with Yingxue for future house and cat sitting needs.
Ezri looked after my dog and my niece’s dog for four days and nights. Neither dog had ever had a stranger look after them. Ezri stayed at my home. We met with her ahead of time to familiarize the dogs. Ezri sent a LOT of text messages, photos and videos of our pups. It was during a heatwave. She made pupcicles and lick mats. She gave longer walks at night, when the pavement was cooler. She bonded well with our pups as by day 2 they were behaving normal in the extreme heat. Ezri is a quiet person who understood our dogs. She did a wonderful job and I would not hesitate to book her again or recommend her to anyone else. Ezri has a quiet authority about her that our pups responded to and respected. Thank you Ezri. When we came home, I couldn’t tell that she had been there for the four days. Very professional!
Tracey is such a fantastic person. My fur baby fell in love with her immediately. She has lot of patience and very responsible sitter. She is very punctual , keeps sharing updates regularly and follows all the information with care. Thank you Tracey for taking such a good care of Lexie.
We highly recommend Jaspreet and Sarvesh for caring for your fur babies. We recently took an eight day cruise and they did in-home sitting for our two dogs and one cat. Everything from our initial meeting to departure and eventual return was done to make sure our pets were well cared for and that we had the peace of mind that allowed us to enjoy our time away. They asked for and adhered to details about our pet’s routines and preferences and set up a WhatsApp group to communicate daily, including sending daily updates with photos and videos. It was great to see happy, stress free pets being cared for in their own home. And when our return flight was delayed almost five hours, Jaspreet and Sarvesh stayed the extra time until we returned. We’ll definitely be calling on them again!
Steven & Liza watched my dogs while I was in the UK back in December for 12 days!! I got daily updates, photos, and videos on them which made me enjoy my trip much better. I forgot to give a review when I got back but thankfully I needed someone to watch my dogs again for an event we were attending. We were able to enjoy our time without worrying about the boys and we got regular updates while they were in Steven and Liza's care.
Mariana was absolutely wonderful with my little Leia. They bonded at first meeting; and I felt comfortable leaving her to care for Leia while I was away. This was my first time using this service so I must admit that I was a bit nervous. Mariana provided daily updates; pics and consistently shared her thoughts on things she felt relevant to inform me. I was very impressed with Mariana and I will definitely book her again in future to care for my little girl. Thank you Mariana!!😊
Evelyn was a great communicator! She spent time to pre meet and greet our cat Luna and got to know us ! She sent us regular updates and photos while we were away so we could see that all was well! Our house was well taken care of in our absence! Thanks for your time and care!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Mississauga 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 Mississauga 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 Mississauga 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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, 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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
