“Samantha was 10/10 - will absolutely rebook again. She was efficient, strong communication and reliable. She showed up right on time, wrote notes down for how to take care of Mila and provided multiple updates and pictures while she took care of her. We trust Sam 100% and will be booking her when we go away again.”

About: Hey there, my name is Brittany and I am 28 years old, I myself am a cat parent, I’ve also had dogs around me my entire life! I’m very understanding when it comes to certain needs and values when it comes to animal care. As of right now I am attending college but it will not be an issue for me to get to and from the college to get to where I am needed I will make sure to stay on schedule and clean up any messes that are made in client homes. Not only will I constantly update you, I’ll send lots of pictures!
“Absolutely recommended Remy 100%. I was so happy to come home and the house was clean, the dogs were happy. I sincerely appreciate this so much. I am so glad I found someone for helping me and I will definitely reach out to Remy as a first contract in the future.”

“I feel so lucky to have found Mercedez on Rover! She went above and beyond in every way while looking after my cat. Not only did she handle all the basics perfectly, but she truly took the time to love, play, and bond with my cat as if he were her own. The frequent updates (with pictures and notes) gave me so much peace of mind, and it was clear from the very beginning that she’s a natural with animals. My usually shy cat warmed up to her so quickly, which says it all! Mercedez is responsible, trustworthy, and most importantly, a genuine animal lover. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat and a spotless home. I can’t imagine a better sitter, and I will definitely be booking her again. If you’re looking for someone you can trust completely with your pets, Mercedez is the one!”
“Emma was great! Took care of our 2 bulldogs and 2 cats for a week while we were on vacation. Dogs loved her, she sent pictures and kept the house in order. Felt secure and safe with her watching over the house and dogs. This is our 2nd time using her, and she is worth every penny! ❤️ Thanks Emma 🙏🫶 Will definitely use ONLY her every time we have to go away. 💕”

“Very happy to have Collin look after our pets. We knew they were in good hands, and we received plenty of pics so we could see how happy Pixie and Friday were to have Collin staying with them!”

About: As a professional dog trainer with years of experience, I offer more than just love and attention—I provide structure, consistency, and tailored care for each dog’s needs. I specialize in training puppies, managing high-energy dogs, and offering gentle support for seniors. Whether your dog needs play, training reinforcement, or just a calm, safe space, I’ve got it covered. Dogs leave not only happy, but better behaved! Pet care is part of my everyday life. I work with dogs daily through training, walks, and structured play. My schedule is built around their needs—early morning potty breaks, midday walks, training sessions, and relaxing wind-down routines in the evening. Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a senior who needs extra patience, I’m always present and hands-on. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s my lifestyle. In my home, dogs get structured care with a balance of fun, training, and rest. I provide daily routines that include exercise, enrichment, potty breaks, and reinforcement of good behavior. Dogs are supervised at all times and treated like family—with clear boundaries to keep everyone safe and happy. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely while adding my professional experience to ensure calm, confident behavior. Whether it’s feeding, walks, medication, or training, I handle every detail with care and consistency.
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for over 13 years, and I have experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and needs! From senior dogs requiring medication and caring for my own dog with epilepsy, to energetic pups needing patience and training, I’ve experienced it all. I’ve also adopted a formerly feral cat, helping her feel safe, comfortable, and loved, training her myself and teaching her to be an indoor cat. I’ve watched birds, hamsters, guinea pigs, and fish as well. I truly believe every animal deserves kindness, patience, and individual attention, and I treat every pet as if they were my own! I’m currently a full time student at Seneca College, working toward my degree in Behavioural Psychology! My classes alternate between Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays, but since they’re all online, I have a very flexible and open schedule. I’m available day or night, weekdays or weekends, and I’m always happy to help with last minute needs, holidays, emergencies, or simply giving your furry friend some extra love and attention when life gets busy! Your pets’ happiness and well being are always a priority to me! I believe every pet deserves a safe, loving, and enriching environment! My own cat, for example, is incredibly spoiled, with a filtered water fountain, a carefully varied diet of wet and dry food, multiple cozy beds, a toy bin, two cat trees, scratching posts, and even her own outdoor enclosure! I also love taking her on adventures with her leash and harness and would love to do the same with your kitty. For dogs, I love going on long walks, exploring new areas, and switching up routes to keep things exciting! I enjoy playing with pets both indoors and outdoors, working on training, and capturing lots of adorable photos along the way. Whether caring for your pet in your home or mine, I’ll always prioritize their safety, comfort, individual needs, and routines. My goal is to make every pet feel just as loved and spoiled as my own!
“Nicole was an incredible sitter for my 5 month old puppy while we were away on holiday. She stayed in our home and cared for our pup as if she were her own. Attentive, loving, responsible and responsive, Nicole kept me updated each day on how our sweet girl was doing. She also continued with training that we had in place, and maintained Selur’s daily routine. I was so worried about leaving Selur behind, especially at such a young age, but Nicole’s caring approach truly assuaged those worries. I would highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for the best care for their dog.”

“I've had Melina cat sit twice now. She is great with my kitty, Daisy. Shows up on time, sends videos, provides updates and responds to my texts. Very professional, yet empathetic . Highly recommend.”
About: Hey! I’m a full time student who loves animals and knows firsthand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pet. I’m currently offering cat and dog services to help support my studies, but because I know how expensive quality care can be (and because every pet deserves reliable care), I keep my rates as low as possible. I’m a full time student so you’ll have my availability as long as I’m not actively in a lecture. Luckily, lots of courses I’m taking are online! Using positive reinforcement, I tailor my services to the preferences of both the owners and the dogs, ensuring each pet feels comfortable and secure. Whether it's drop-in visits or dog walking, I consider your dog's energy level, the temperature of the day, and other factors to provide the best care. For example, on hot days, I bring dog friendly popsicles for the pups to enjoy (with prior approval of owner, with allergies in mind). My goal is not only to ensure your dog leaves happy but also well-exercised, content, and satisfied.

About: First of all - I empathize with your tough decision; leaving your fur baby in the hands of another is always a stressful experience. I want to make sure this is a pawsitive experience for you - to answer any questions, send regular updates and photos of your fur baby being spoiled, feeling safe and comfortable in your absence - which would be stressful for them as well. I will not derail your training or nutrition routines as I know it takes a lot of work and dedication to raise a healthy, happy pet. I work full time M to F, 8 to 3. If by chance your fur baby needed to spend any weekdays with me, I’m happy to crate or provide a space free of dangers - garbages up, stairs downstairs gated off and peaceful music in the background. I can also ask my folks (retired) to stop by for a pet and a pee. Mainly - I am looking to sit during weekends (when I am fully off) and holidays (I get all school holidays off) - where it will be me and your fur baby from morning till night! Also - if your pet is more comfortable at his/her own home, I don’t mind having the discussion of me staying over with you. I think it would be really beautiful to get to know your pet like an auntie so that you all can rely on a familiar face as you travel and your pets grow older! I live on an acre of land, with a creek in my backyard. I do not live on a busy street, however, I do not have a fenced in property. I would never let your dog or cat outside to roam without myself at the end of their leash. I will gladly exercise your fur baby with toys, lick pads and long-tether leash walks, in the backyard, on the trails (depending on heartworm/tick medications up to date), but I would never let them out of my sight (I wouldn’t even be able to do that with my own fur baby as I don’t want them to get into anything and frankly I don’t trust people out there!!)

About: Hello! My name is Nathalie and I am an animal lover looking to care for the pets of others! I have 5 years of veterinary and animal experience working in animal hospitals, cat shelters, dog daycares, and even barn experience with horses and sheep. I have great experience in handling approaches for both dogs and cats, administration of medications (including injections), dog walking, nail trims, pet caretaking and customer service. I have two cats of my own and hoping to get a dog in the near future as well! My goal is to continue helping others and establishing great relationships with both humans and their furry loved ones. I’m currently looking to do pet care full time Monday-Friday so I am fully available and flexible throughout each week day. I am available 9am until 9pm and open to overnights/different timing if needed. I provide all pet care at the comfort of your home and can provide dog walking services for as long as you’d like - whether its 30 minutes or 1 hour, I am happy to discuss your pets needs.

About: I grew up around a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, goats, bunnies, and chickens! I love pets and I love to spend my time with animals. I care deeply about all beings and love to help those needed! I am studying Psychology at Brock University, though I have a flexible schedule. My goal is to prioritize my clients on Rover and my studies. I am open to most availabilities and am excited to spend time with your fur babies! I am very gentle, with reasonable boundaries, especially depending on any care considerations with each individual client! I cannot have pets full-time in my apartment as my roommate is slightly allergic, but play dates are all good!

About: I have two Goldendoodles who are truly my best friends, and I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs my whole life! I’ve always loved caring for and spending time with animals. I’ve also had experience looking after my neighbours’ dogs, including house sitting, walking, feeding, playing, and making sure they’re happy and comfortable. I’ve cared for dogs both in my neighbourhood and in my hometown, and I really enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making them feel right at home! I’m currently in my third year at Brock University, studying Forensic Psychology and Criminal Justice! I’m available every afternoon, with full availability from Thursday through Sunday. When I’m caring for your pet, they have my full attention and are always my priority. I’m dedicated to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while they’re with me. I will ensure your dog is always in a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I love keeping dogs active, engaged, and having fun throughout the day so they’re happy, relaxed, and ready for a great night’s sleep!

“Areeba took great care of my best friend well I was gone. Gave me lots of updates and pictures to give me peace of mind and was prompt at responding. I highly recommend her. She even swept up before leaving.”

About: I am a friendly, energetic 26 year old who loves all furry friends! Growing up on a farm, I have had a long history of working with animals. I love dogs, and I began dog sitting and taking care of dogs when my family adopted our dog Riley 10 years ago. Through the years, my family has also fostered many dogs, and I have really enjoyed taking the dogs out for long walks, runs, and out to play. I would love to take care of your dog for you, whether they’re big, small, shy, outgoing, lazy or energetic. (I am also very good with cats and other small animals). I look forward to meeting you and your pet. When I am looking after a pet, their care is my top priority. I always put them first and give them as much attention as they need. I care for pets in my home very attentively and thoughtfully. If a pet has a favourite treat or a favourite activity or enjoys being pet a certain way I will make sure to give them that treat activity or walk.
About: I've taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. Both big and small dogs. I've always loved dogs and look forward to meeting and supporting more. I work full-time Monday through Friday. I am off at 4pm. And if I can be of any assistance to anyone who works weekday afternoons/evenings/weekends or just needs some extra help with pet care, that's awesome. I know what it's like to feel guilty leaving the house for work/going out or having an emergency that leaves your pets home for extended hours. Pets are not just pets. They are family! And if I can bring owners some peace of mind knowing their dog was let outside to go to the bathroom and checked in on, that's amazing. I will strive to accomplish what needs to be accomplished efficiently, whether that's letting your pet out to use the bathroom, make sure their food and water dishes replenished and get some pets and a little bit of play in. If it's a walk your dog needs, I'm your girl. I love going for walks in general and have experience walking dogs of all sizes. I'm also on a weight loss journey so talking your pet out for a stroll is great for both of us!
About: Many years of working with reactive dogs and their unique needs. Have cared for multiple pets at a time. Very active and good with high energy dogs and well am always grateful for more relaxed pets Have plenty have spare time to spend with your pets, as I have a fairly flexible hours. Wake up early and love go be outside Working with their specific needs, respectful of my own and other environments. Always working towards making sure your pets are comfortable no matter where they are.

Samantha was amazing! My dog loved her from the meet and greet so leaving her in Samantha’s hands was no problem. She showed my dog so much love and care and attention. Even made sure she had lots of walks too. It was my first time using a sitter and I’ll definitely book Samantha again. She even sent us pictures and updates throughout the day that reassured me so much more. Thank you Samantha. Your are chestnut’s new best friend!

As always Lauren was outstanding especially when my Opie wasn’t well, she went above and beyond to make sure that he was looked after and cared for and communicative while I was out of the country. I cannot say enough great things about Lauren and appreciate her caring for my babies and giving me peace of mind.

Melina house sat for us and our pets when we had to go out of town for an evening. She sent pictures and kept us up to date. She left our home very neat and stripped the bed and folded everything nicely after her stay. This was her second time with Lola our dog and Lola was very excited when she came. Highly recommended!
We left our Golden doodle Sadie with Camille for two week while we went on a cruise. Her daily messsages and pictures made is feel so relieved that our dog was being loved and cared for so that we could really relax and enjoy our holiday. She played with her, slept with her, groomed her and loved her while we were gone. We came home to a clean home and a happy pet. Recommend her highly!!
Shae did a fantastic job looking after our three cats - Herman, Eddie, and Ella. We have specific feeding requirements (separate food for each), and Shae followed all the instructions without issue. Communication throughout was great; we always knew how things were going. When we got home, the cats were calm and happy, which says everything. We would absolutely book Shae again without hesitation.

Remy was amazing with my rescue dog, Bowie! He has separation anxiety and can be fearful of new people and Remy was incredible. They understood his quirks and was accommodating and patient and created a calming and supportive environment for him while we were out. We got tons of pictures and updates too which I loved. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Niagara Falls is $72 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $89 per night.

Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Niagara Falls 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 Niagara Falls 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 Niagara Falls 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. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
