“Leslie and Rob provided the best care to our dogs, Pippa and Nova. And they love their new best friend Gauge, who is the sweetest pup! Leslie and Rob are amazing people - kind and caring - and our dogs felt completely at home! They treated them like family, and kept us up to date daily. Pippa and Nova can't wait to go back!”
“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 !!”
“Don’t hesitate! She was able to deal with my high maintenance min pin with a smile. Will be a repeat customer. I’ve never had him at the same place twice but he will be back here next time I travel. 100% recommend! Thanks x a million! Great experience.”
“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 and her partner watched our 1.5 year old whippet for 10 days while we were on holiday. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures/videos of him throughout the week which we appreciated! Neo and our dog seemed to get along really well and it looked like they had a great time. We appreciate the care and would definitely book with them again!”
“We cannot say enough about Denise and Gary. You will have zero worries about your pup when they’re in their care. They love them like their own and it’s a very comforting feeling to have our girl stay with them.”
“Gillian provided exceptional care for our two older dogs, including one who has some significant mobility restrictions. Her home was warm and welcoming for our dogs and the fully fenced backyard was a key security feature for us. Our two dogs mean the world to us and this was our first time using a dog sitter and we were so lucky to have found Gillian here on Rover. She put our minds at ease and sent plenty of updates and pictures to show our dogs relaxing and cuddling with her. If you are looking for a dog sitter for your four legged friend do not hesitate to use Gillian. Our dogs are 12 and 10 years old and she took care of them just as well as we would have.”
“Chantelle is a fantastic dog sitter. She helped me with taking in my little pup when I had my original sitter cancel on me. She was so helpful and had great communication. I felt so at ease and comfortable leaving my little furry baby with her. I will definitely use her services again when needed and recommend her to anyone who needs this kind of services.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 14, but was a volunteer at the Gander SPCA since the 6th grade! I’ve cared (and owned) for dogs, cats and small animals, and have 2 years experience of working at a pet store prior to moving to St. John’s. I also received animal care training in that position.

I spend almost all my days at home so your pets will receive as much attention as necessary. Though my yard is not fenced in I am still willing to take your animals out as much as necessary, they will have lots of room to run around the house too!! I am capable of handling animals in all moods, and have experience in training my own dog as well. I will make sure they receive all the love they deserve :)
“Amrita was so sweet and gave lots of updates about Alma. She was patient with her when she was anxious and barking for the first bit after I left. I will definitely be booking with Amrit next time I need a sitter <3”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, and love taking care of them. As soon as I could work with animals I did, from a vet clinic on the coast to a local farm. I have experience training young puppies and with nervous cats. I love animals and take care of them as my own! I’m currently working part-time, so I have a lot of free time to care for your pets. I work during the evenings for a couple hours and thats it, so I have no trouble spending as much time with your pet as needed! I have my own friendly dog and cat that love to play, my dog especially. I don’t have a fenced in yard as I live in an apartment building, but I take my own dog on multiple walks during the day on the walking trails around my area. I can easily crate your pet if needed as well. I am also within walking distance to a dog park if your dog enjoys that!
“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 😁”
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 :)
About: I've been surrounded by pets for as long as I can remember, and they've always held a special place in my heart. At the age of 7, I welcomed my first dog, Luna, and since then, I've discovered a new kind of love. Back home, I have two French poodles and, five beloved cats. Moving to St. John's has left me missing their companionship dearly. Becoming a pet sitter is my way of reconnecting with that joy and love. I'm eager to shower your furry friends with affection, take them for walks, engage in playtime, and ensure they have the best possible care while you're away.🥰🥰 I'm a student with plenty of time during weekdays. I have a highly flexible schedule and am always available to help out, even outside of my regular hours, in case of emergencies. I'm fully available on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and after 5 pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I reside in a spacious 3-bedroom house in Downtown, offering ample indoor space. Additionally, Bannerman Park is conveniently located just in front of my residence, providing an excellent outdoor experience and opportunities for delightful walks.

Prices are estimates per visit for 1 cat. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
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 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: I took care of cats and kittens, at the owners' house, during their holidays. Not only to feed them and clean the litter box, but also to spend some time with them and play with them. I can speak French and English. /J'ai pris soin des chats et des chatons, chez les propriétaires, pendant leurs vacances. Non seulement pour les nourrir et nettoyer la litière, mais aussi pour passer du temps avec eux et jouer avec eux. Je parle français et anglais.
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.
“Victoria was such a great help for our last minute vacation. She worked with me to answer all my questions and put our minds at ease prior to leaving. She provided multiple daily updates and was overall so great. We really appreciated her kind personality and how she went above and beyond, doing extra things for our cat and keeping our apartment clean. For the five days she was here.”
About: I have a huge passion for animals, especially dogs. I love keeping animals happy, and I'll love your dog like it's my own. I've had dogs my whole life, and I love the outdoors and walking. I'll make sure your dog gets lots of exercise, and I'll keep the walks fresh and new, bringing your dog to many different trails. I am completely comfortable with all sorts of dogs. I used to own a mix named Tickey, a Golden Retriver named Daisy, a King Charles Spaniel named Katie, and I now own a Portuguese Water Dog named Odin. I’ve done some dog walking for people while they were travelling for a few weeks and absolutely loved it. I cannot wait to meet your dog! I love making new friends, I feel like I have a special connection with animals because I am open and 100% comfortable. I work as a barista and am off almost every Monday, Thursday and Sunday. So I can walk anytime on those days. On days that I work I walk Odin every afternoon when I get off at 3, so I can walk your dog/s with Odin, or separately afterwards I have a fenced in yard that is all grass and it is always mowed and fully cleaned. I also have woods right behind my house that is great for walking
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.

“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.”

“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 grew up with dogs and just love spending time with them. I have 5 years of occasional dog boarding and pet sitting experience. I also have volunteered for a dog rescue in Germany/Greece as well as here in Canada and have been a foster for puppies from Labrador and rescues from Texas since 2023. 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!

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.

I ensure the dogs have enough to play with and keep them entertained as well as keeping them out of things that they shouldn’t be in and I can assist in some easier parts of training where needed.
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??! 🤩
About: I have hands-on experience fostering dogs through the SPCA, which gave me the chance to care for pups of all ages, temperaments, and needs. On top of that, I’ve raised and trained my own puppy from the ground up, so I understand the patience and consistency needed for things like crate training, housebreaking, and leash manners. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like family, with a balance of structure, love, and playtime. I dedicate weekends and my days off to caring for pets, which means I can give them my full attention without rushing. This makes it easy for me to stick to each pet’s schedule, whether that’s walks, feedings, or cuddle breaks. In my home, pets get a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of playtime and attention. I follow any feeding or medication routines exactly as instructed. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space while making sure pets feel loved and secure from walks and play to quiet companionship. My goal is to keep their routine consistent so they feel relaxed and cared for while you’re away.

“Leslie and Rob provided the best care to our dogs, Pippa and Nova. And they love their new best friend Gauge, who is the sweetest pup! Leslie and Rob are amazing people - kind and caring - and our dogs felt completely at home! They treated them like family, and kept us up to date daily. Pippa and Nova can't wait to go back!”
“Don’t hesitate! She was able to deal with my high maintenance min pin with a smile. Will be a repeat customer. I’ve never had him at the same place twice but he will be back here next time I travel. 100% recommend! Thanks x a million! Great experience.”
“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 and her partner watched our 1.5 year old whippet for 10 days while we were on holiday. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures/videos of him throughout the week which we appreciated! Neo and our dog seemed to get along really well and it looked like they had a great time. We appreciate the care and would definitely book with them again!”
“Chantelle is a fantastic dog sitter. She helped me with taking in my little pup when I had my original sitter cancel on me. She was so helpful and had great communication. I felt so at ease and comfortable leaving my little furry baby with her. I will definitely use her services again when needed and recommend her to anyone who needs this kind of services.”

About: I've been surrounded by pets for as long as I can remember, and they've always held a special place in my heart. At the age of 7, I welcomed my first dog, Luna, and since then, I've discovered a new kind of love. Back home, I have two French poodles and, five beloved cats. Moving to St. John's has left me missing their companionship dearly. Becoming a pet sitter is my way of reconnecting with that joy and love. I'm eager to shower your furry friends with affection, take them for walks, engage in playtime, and ensure they have the best possible care while you're away.🥰🥰 I'm a student with plenty of time during weekdays. I have a highly flexible schedule and am always available to help out, even outside of my regular hours, in case of emergencies.

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.
“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 !”
“Michael and Kendra are absolutely top notch dog sitters. My dog Rocky seemed as happy as could be and I received lots of photos and videos of him getting walked and playing with their dogs in the backyard. They are also really personable people and I enjoyed getting to chat with them while the dogs were getting to know eachother before the stay. I highly recommend them.”
“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 taken care of my friend’s dogs quite often when they travel and love it. I have always been around dogs and enjoy them :) I can be home in the day with the dogs! Walking and watching them daily. I work from home, so I am flexible! Look forward to meeting the dogs. I can easily crate your dog if need be, or allow them to go outside in my backyard. I will ensure to allow lots of outdoor time and walks!
