“Rayna and Nigel took great care of our precious fur baby! They have a nice fenced yard and additionally took him for walks every day. We also received lots of pics and updates which made us feel he was being well cared for. We highly recommend these folk as dog sitters and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again!”

“Once again, Leslie and Rob are just fantastic! We got stuck away for three extra nights unexpectedly due to weather, and they continued to take care of our dogs Pippa and Nova without hesitation! It provided us 100% peace of mind being able to travel and knowing they are being cared for in such a loving and caring home, and so well looked after. Leslie went over and beyond to ensure Nova had her medications, and sent regular updates. Their fenced in backyard is amazing, and the dogs fit into their beautiful home with their sweet dog Gauge perfectly. Pippa and Nova are excited for their next stay over!”

“Albina did a fantastic job watching my puppy Cid !! She provided me with daily updates to let me know how he was doing ! You can tell she has an affinity for animals as he was comfortable with her right away ! I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter !!”

“Tasha is a awesome sitter. I felt so at ease while on vacation. Tasha would check in everyday to let me know how my babies were doing. I will definitely be using her services again and would recommend her 110%. I received lots of pictures from her and from them I could tell my babes were very happy! ??from Nitro and Nixon!”

“O’Malley had a great stay. He was genuinely welcomed and clearly well cared for from start to finish. He does not thrive in crowded daycare environments, so this setting was exactly what we needed. The balance was perfect: attentive, caring humans and just enough canine interaction to keep things engaging without being overwhelming. Lori sent pictures and quickly replied to our check-in messages :) Highly recommend. O’Malley already seems to be missing his holiday family.”

“Nirali was absolutely amazing to book with. She replies super fast to messages, she constantly sent me photo updates of my dog, was very accommodating when I had to delay my pickup time. Super sweet and absolutely adores dogs. Without a doubt, will rebook with her :)”

About: 🐾 Welcome! I’ve been around dogs and animals my entire life and have cared for them since I was a child. As a true dog lover, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and building a connection with them. They bring so much happiness into my life, and I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I have a 3-year-old dog named Neo and 11 months old pup named Theo, they are friendly, playful, and loving pups. They enjoy meeting other dogs and would be happy to have some furry friends to spend time with. We provide a safe, caring, and welcoming environment where your dog can feel comfortable, relaxed, and part of the family. As a pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to know your dog is in good hands. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I’ll care for your dog as if they were my own, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy, and well looked after. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! 🐶❤️ Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I make time each day for walks, feeding, playtime, and providing companionship. I am committed to giving pets the attention, care, and affection they deserve while ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for your pet. I understand that leaving your dog with someone else is a big decision, and I will treat your furry family member with the same care, patience, and attention that I give my own dogs. Our home provides a safe, loving, and welcoming environment where pets can relax, play, and feel comfortable. We maintain a consistent routine, provide close supervision, and ensure every dog receives plenty of exercise, affection, and care. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind, knowing their dog is safe, happy, and treated like part of the family while they’re away.
“Melanie took care of my dog Pickle over the weekend and she absolutely did a fabulous job. Plenty of update with pics and videos throughout the stay. Pickle obviously had a great time with Melanie and her family. Will definitely go back to Melanie again. Thank you 😊”

About: I have been providing dog sitting services for some time now and decided to extend services through Rover in February 2026. I am an huge animal lover, adore nature and just want to give families the peace of mind when going away that I would want for my dogs. I have owned many dogs and have fostered too many to count. I was president of a rescue group for 10 years, 25 years volunteering with rescue groups and have extensive experience with small and large dogs, I have completed multiple obedience courses and have a strong knowledge of basic dog obedience and training. Dogs are a huge part of my life. I have regular clients I walk and that I provide pet sitting for in my home. I love to walk, hike, and jog. I build regular daily outdoor activity into my schedule and understand the importance of consistency for dogs. I am also flexible and can adjust to the needs of a dog when needed and I want to provide them with a place they can be content while their owner is away. Each dog is unique and I support a daily/weekly plan that supports their uniqueness. In order to get to know the needs and routines of all the dogs I care for, I ask each owner to complete a questionnaire outlining all I would need to know while caring for their dog. I treat each dog like my own and they are fully integrated into all aspects of our household. Regular interaction, belly rubs and treats (with owner permission) are daily occurrences.
“Amazing hosts for holt! They were so kind and holt had a blast on his night over. Very accommodating of a late drop off time! I loved our updates throughout the day with pictures of holt having fun or just sleeping 😴! And he sure was beat out by the time I collected him the following day. It was all naps the rest of the afternoon 😁”

“Maggie took care of our Australian shepherd, Jersey, while we were out of town on vacation. She was so kind and took such good care of our girl, bringing her for walks frequently, Sent lots of photos and updates. Highly recommend.”

About: I have a lifetime of experience when it comes to dogs and have grown up around them my whole life. I was raised by parents that worked with animals and learned a lot about how to care and connect with them. Iam able to administer medications and attend to dogs of any age including puppies. When my husband and I got a dog of our own for the first time our hearts became even more full with love for animals Wich is something I didn’t think possible. Being a dog mom to a loving happy and goofy dog like Bodhi has changed my life. He is truly the heart of our home and caring for him is so fulfilling. Welcoming your dog in our home will just be another incredible addition where we can share our love for animals and care for them like they are our own. I am an artist currently working from home so I am incredibly flexible when it comes to dog care. I have tons of time for play and walks and cuddles so your pet will get lots of attention. On weekends my husband and I go hiking when the weather is good and love to take Bodhi for the nature and exercise, we love to be outside. I live in a great ground floor condo with a walkout porch and a front lawn, right next to me there is a yard with a fence separating us from any traffic or stores. There is lots of room for play and fun and makes potty breaks convenient and easy :) My neighbours are all dog lovers as well and welcome all new furry friends with loving arms. I live only 2 minutes away from Bowring park and go there everyday for a huge walk with Bodhi living close is such a blessing cause he loves the park. As most dogs do, it’s a great place to walk them and let them explore. So you can count on your dog getting a nice big walk in during the day :) Bodhi is a super loving and playful dog who loves other dogs and playing so you know your dog will have a best friend when they stay with us. Dogs are welcome in the bed, on the couch and anywhere in our home. They are family and are treated as such :)
“My dog had a wonderful time with Justine and her family! She has a large property for dogs to run and play, my pup didn’t even want to come home!I definitely recommend her care if you want your dog to have a blast and be well cared for !”

“This was our first time using this service. We went and interviewed with Steve. He was very kind and and polite when we met. We decided to book with him. And he treated our girl like his own. She was so very well looked after. We can not say enough about it. When we checked in on her. We were given pics to show how happy she was. As well as any news. What a great experience we have had and moving forward as long as he is free we will be booking with Steve again. If you need someone. Meet with Steve and his care for your pet will be amazing.”

“We are so glad to have had Laura care for our dog!! He had so much fun which we could see in the pics she sent throughout his stay. This made it easier to be away. Peace of mind. We will definitely have Laura care for our dog again!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 11, starting with family and close friends. I’ve now been caring for pet for 11 years! I absolutely love animals, meeting new ones and caring for them! I learned from working under the groomers at a pet salon and pet store how to brush and cut cats nails correctly. I now do my cats nails at home! I also know how to administer medication with a needle, as my dog had diabetes.
About: I am very experienced with puppies, adults, and senior dogs, as well as cats and birds. I am quite comfortable administering medications and providing training and playtime. We have had our current dog since she was a puppy and took on a lot of the training responsibilities. I used positive reinforcement through pets and words of encouragement, treats, and clicker training. I have also taken care of a senior dog who required medications, physical support, and diapering. I have experience with large breed dogs as our previous dog was a Great Pyrenees who required regular walks, grooming, and playtime. We have had our 16-year-old cat since he was born. He is diabetic but is no longer insulin dependent. His diabetes is now managed with his specific diet, so I understand the importance of sticking to a plan and schedule. I am currently working part-time and would love to spend some time with your fur babies - snuggling on the couch or placing tug of war. I never walk dogs off-leash unless it's at an owner-approved dog park and inside an enclosed area. I always walk on the sidewalks where possible and I stay on the side of traffic. I am always cautious when entering a house with cats to ensure no escapes occur on my watch. I always follow the owner's training and house rules to the best of my ability. The pets' safety is my first priority and when unsure of what to do, I use common sense or I will call the owner for direction.

About: With a few years of hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages, temperaments, and health needs, I bring a calm, confident presence that puts even the shyest felines at ease. I take the time to understand each cat’s unique personality and needs, whether they crave playtime, cuddles, or just a quiet companion. I tailor my care to make them feel safe and loved while you’re away.
About: I have just moved to St John’s, NL from NB as my wife (originally from St John’s recently got a job here). I had to retire early from municipal engineering a few years ago due to complications from a large brain tumour. I spend each day seeking joy and fun in the east end. I have a kitty Bertha. I’ve got lots of experience taking care of both cats and dogs albeit new to Rover. I’ve got perfect reviews on trustedpetsitters I look forward to meeting more 4 legged friends and helping out where possible! Feel free to reach out with any questions or opportunities I currently live in the east end with my wife. Since a brain tumour in 2021 forced early retirement; I’ve got lots of flexibility to pursue other interests and things I love like playing and staying with animals. I can usually be available on short notice I have looked after pets since i was a kid. I love dogs (and cats of course) and look forward to helping care for your baby. I'm a professional engineer by training/education so very trust worthy. I treat your pet like it is my own
About: I love animals and have had pets since I was young. I currently have two cats, lots of fish, and a very playful Golden Retriever but I have looked after all different kinds of pets! I've cared for all kinds of dogs (small to giant), cats, a tortoise, a bunny, a chinchilla, and fish. I would be so happy to take care of your furbabies, whether it's drop in visits, walks, or doggy day care in my home. I am available for doggy daycare on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays! For doggy daycare, up to 10 hours is included in the price. For daycare over 10 hours, an additional $10 charge will be applied. I have a very large fenced yard where your dog can run and play to their heart's content. I have also completed Dog/Cat First Aid and CPR that I can use in the unlikely event of an injury.
About: With 10 years of experience owning a Golden Retriever and pet-sitting for friends’ dogs, I know how to keep your furry friend happy and well-cared for. Whether it's a fun walk or just some quality time, your dog is in great hands! I’ve got a super flexible schedule this August and am available for walks whenever you need me. Come the school year, I’ll be available mornings and weekends, so your pup won’t miss out on their daily walks! When caring for pets in my home, I create a cozy, pet-friendly environment where they can feel relaxed and safe. I make sure they have plenty of room to play, nap, and get attention when they need it. I also stick to their usual routine to make them feel at home. When pet-sitting at your home, I treat it like my own—ensuring your pet feels secure and loved. I follow your instructions closely, whether it’s feeding times, play schedules, or special needs. Plus, I keep your home tidy and make sure your pet gets all the cuddles and care they deserve while you're away.
“Heather pet sitted out two senior cats for 5 days when we had to go out of province for a family wedding. She did a great job! One of our cats needs medication twice a day and she administered it no problem. They loved her and did not hide when she came to visit. I felt very relieved having her watch the cats and felt like it was one thing I did not have to worry about while we were away. I would recommend Heather to anyone and would definitely book her again.”

About: All pets will be loved and taken care of, they will definitely be my priority during the time they are with me. Had dogs for the major part of my childhood, so growing up connecting to pets is not much of a problem for me. Will be playing with them pretty much all the time for sure, do not have to worry about any kinds of danger, safety will be ensured first. Any kind of special care requested will be happily accepted and extra attention will be payed towards the concern. Would love to stay connected to each pet, should expect me to secretly give treats to all the good pets out there ☺️💙 Every service provided will be the best. So when can I meet your pet??! 🤩

“Mitch had never stayed with a stranger yet he had a lovely time with Nirali and her pups. We were visiting St John’s and needed somebody to watch Mitch for awhile.

Thank you for taking such good care of Mitch. We appreciate you”

About: I offer reliable, loving pet sitting and doggy day drop-offs from my home in a calm, safe environment.

About: I grew up with dogs and just love spending time with them. I have 5 years of occasional dog boarding and pet sitting experience.

Me and my dog Murphy spend all day together as I work remotely and we usually always have time and space to welcome other dogs into our home! I work from home so me and my dog Murphy are available all day. All dogs in my home get walked 4 times a day and will get plenty of exercise, if required. Just give me some instructions and tell me your dog's quirks and needs and I will work around that. I also love teaching dogs new tricks! I have been a foster for rescue dogs for quite some time now and have worked with highly traumatized dogs, so me and my dog Murphy are used to special needs and behavior in other dogs.
“We left Piper for the day while we headed out exploring. Lori was very good with Piper and she got along well with their dogs and their foster dogs. A great experience for Piper. I would definitely recommend them.”

About: Have house trained my daughters and son’s puppies. I dog sit for my son when he goes on his many trips and continue to check in on my daughter’s dog while she’s at work. Will Allow Pets On Bed Depending On Size I am retired and bored at home. I can spend all day every day with your pup. I love going for walks so it would be great to have a buddy. I have a fenced yard . I live on a very quiet cul de sac ,no pets of our own ,cat and dog passed away a few years ago
About: I have a Westie and a Gordon Setter. Both love other dogs. Everything I do revolves around them. I have had much experience having other dogs in my home. Our little family is welcoming, quiet and happy. We have hosted larger and smaller breeds. I have a fenced backyard which also offers some freedom to our furry friends. My own dogs are very well behaved and friendly. They love other dogs and even some people ;-) I currently work from home so my schedule offers me a lot of free time. I always make our guests part of the family. They have full run of the house. I always say this is like going to Grandmas, the rules are very flexible and cuddles are a must! Pets are my priority. Most people who know me know that my life revolves around them. My usual excuse is “I can’t, I have dogs to get home to”. And I’m perfectly happy with that. I believe that their lives are so short already, they deserve to have as much of our attention and love as possible.

“Once again, Leslie and Rob are just fantastic! We got stuck away for three extra nights unexpectedly due to weather, and they continued to take care of our dogs Pippa and Nova without hesitation! It provided us 100% peace of mind being able to travel and knowing they are being cared for in such a loving and caring home, and so well looked after. Leslie went over and beyond to ensure Nova had her medications, and sent regular updates. Their fenced in backyard is amazing, and the dogs fit into their beautiful home with their sweet dog Gauge perfectly. Pippa and Nova are excited for their next stay over!”

“Tasha is a awesome sitter. I felt so at ease while on vacation. Tasha would check in everyday to let me know how my babies were doing. I will definitely be using her services again and would recommend her 110%. I received lots of pictures from her and from them I could tell my babes were very happy! ??from Nitro and Nixon!”

“O’Malley had a great stay. He was genuinely welcomed and clearly well cared for from start to finish. He does not thrive in crowded daycare environments, so this setting was exactly what we needed. The balance was perfect: attentive, caring humans and just enough canine interaction to keep things engaging without being overwhelming. Lori sent pictures and quickly replied to our check-in messages :) Highly recommend. O’Malley already seems to be missing his holiday family.”

“Nirali was absolutely amazing to book with. She replies super fast to messages, she constantly sent me photo updates of my dog, was very accommodating when I had to delay my pickup time. Super sweet and absolutely adores dogs. Without a doubt, will rebook with her :)”

About: 🐾 Welcome! I’ve been around dogs and animals my entire life and have cared for them since I was a child. As a true dog lover, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and building a connection with them. They bring so much happiness into my life, and I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I have a 3-year-old dog named Neo and 11 months old pup named Theo, they are friendly, playful, and loving pups. They enjoy meeting other dogs and would be happy to have some furry friends to spend time with. We provide a safe, caring, and welcoming environment where your dog can feel comfortable, relaxed, and part of the family. As a pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to know your dog is in good hands. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I’ll care for your dog as if they were my own, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy, and well looked after. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! 🐶❤️ Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I make time each day for walks, feeding, playtime, and providing companionship. I am committed to giving pets the attention, care, and affection they deserve while ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for your pet. I understand that leaving your dog with someone else is a big decision, and I will treat your furry family member with the same care, patience, and attention that I give my own dogs. Our home provides a safe, loving, and welcoming environment where pets can relax, play, and feel comfortable. We maintain a consistent routine, provide close supervision, and ensure every dog receives plenty of exercise, affection, and care. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind, knowing their dog is safe, happy, and treated like part of the family while they’re away.
“Melanie took care of my dog Pickle over the weekend and she absolutely did a fabulous job. Plenty of update with pics and videos throughout the stay. Pickle obviously had a great time with Melanie and her family. Will definitely go back to Melanie again. Thank you 😊”
“Bruin had a wonderful time with Chantelle and her family. Chantelle kept in contact with us, sending us updates and pictures 😊 I will certainly book Chantelle again! Thanks for everything!”

About: I have been providing dog sitting services for some time now and decided to extend services through Rover in February 2026. I am an huge animal lover, adore nature and just want to give families the peace of mind when going away that I would want for my dogs. I have owned many dogs and have fostered too many to count. I was president of a rescue group for 10 years, 25 years volunteering with rescue groups and have extensive experience with small and large dogs, I have completed multiple obedience courses and have a strong knowledge of basic dog obedience and training. Dogs are a huge part of my life. I have regular clients I walk and that I provide pet sitting for in my home. I love to walk, hike, and jog. I build regular daily outdoor activity into my schedule and understand the importance of consistency for dogs. I am also flexible and can adjust to the needs of a dog when needed and I want to provide them with a place they can be content while their owner is away. Each dog is unique and I support a daily/weekly plan that supports their uniqueness. In order to get to know the needs and routines of all the dogs I care for, I ask each owner to complete a questionnaire outlining all I would need to know while caring for their dog. I treat each dog like my own and they are fully integrated into all aspects of our household. Regular interaction, belly rubs and treats (with owner permission) are daily occurrences.
“Amazing hosts for holt! They were so kind and holt had a blast on his night over. Very accommodating of a late drop off time! I loved our updates throughout the day with pictures of holt having fun or just sleeping 😴! And he sure was beat out by the time I collected him the following day. It was all naps the rest of the afternoon 😁”

“My dog had a wonderful time with Justine and her family! She has a large property for dogs to run and play, my pup didn’t even want to come home!I definitely recommend her care if you want your dog to have a blast and be well cared for !”

“This was our first time using this service. We went and interviewed with Steve. He was very kind and and polite when we met. We decided to book with him. And he treated our girl like his own. She was so very well looked after. We can not say enough about it. When we checked in on her. We were given pics to show how happy she was. As well as any news. What a great experience we have had and moving forward as long as he is free we will be booking with Steve again. If you need someone. Meet with Steve and his care for your pet will be amazing.”

“We are so glad to have had Laura care for our dog!! He had so much fun which we could see in the pics she sent throughout his stay. This made it easier to be away. Peace of mind. We will definitely have Laura care for our dog again!”

“Joanna was absolutely fabulous! I was so happy that Jasper was so well cared for while we were out of town. She was very accommodating and flexible to meet up before our vacation to make sure that our dogs got along. She sent pictures and updates that helped reinforce that Jasper was well cared for and having a fun vacation of his own. I highly recommend Joanna and her adorable dog Ollie as excellent dog sitters!”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life—dogs and cats. I’ve helped care for family pets, walked neighborhood dogs, and provided overnight care for friends and family while they were away. I’m confident handling pets of all sizes and temperaments, and I treat every animal like my own—with patience, love, and respect. Whether it’s a long walk, some playtime, or just company, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away👍 I’m currently doing online studies and not working at the moment, which allows me to offer a very flexible schedule. I’m available Monday through Saturday for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. Whether your pet needs attention during the day or evening, I’m happy to work around your schedule. Sundays are my only day off, but feel free to reach out anytime! I understand how important it is to feel confident when someone is caring for your pet in your home. I treat every home with the utmost respect and care, just as I would my own. I follow any specific instructions you provide and always prioritize your pet’s routine, safety, and comfort. I take time to build trust with both pets and owners, creating a calm and reliable environment. Your pet’s well-being—and your peace of mind—are my top priorities. If you’d like updates while you’re away, I’m more than happy to send messages, photos, or videos so you can feel reassured that your pet is happy and well cared
“Emily was fantastic! We got updates and pictures our entire time away and Kobe came home a very happy and tired pup! We will definitely be using Emily again in the future. We could not have been happier with our experience!”
