“Lorin was so amazing and no doubt I will be booking her again. We have a high energy, anxiety filled frenchie who is reactive on a leash with dogs and i've been soooo hesitant to leave her with a sitter but Lorin was the best decision I made. She gave me frequent updates and photos of Stevie and always kept me in the loop of what was going on. She was extremely organized and put my stress at peace when leaving Stevie alone in the house. Thank you Lorin!!!!”

About: FEAR Free Certified & current volunteer at the Humane Society of Oakville, Milton & Halton. Involved in dog (incl puppies), cat (incl kittens), reptiles (lizards & snakes) & farm animal care for over 35yrs. My experienced care and love for animals sets me apart from most! I am currently taking a break from my insurance career, so I have lots of time to spend with your pets when needed! My kids are also teenagers now and don't rely on me as much anymore. Since I will only be doing dog walking and pet care at the owners homes, I will listen to the owners and the pets themselves about what they want. I want to ensure a trustworthy bond is created so I have the upmost trust of you and your pet(s). My cat at home is absolutely spoiled rotten and owns the home. Which me and my family are okay with since we love her so much!
“Nikki was absolutely wonderful with my kitty! She took such great care of her, making sure she was fed, played with, and received all of her medications. I especially appreciated how attentive and gentle she was, and how she kept me updated every day with pictures. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my kitty was in such caring hands while I was away. Nikki was reliable, kind, and truly went above and beyond. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and trustworthy pet sitter!”
About: I had been living with and taking care of cats since I was 6 years old. I am absolutely a cat lover and couldn’t imagine life without cats being around. I am currently a parent of two cats, one male and one female who are both neutered. I had experiences taking care of new born kittens as well as helping neighbours and friends taking care of their cats and have them staying at my house when they are on vacations. I have a big clean house with fenced yard and finished basement located in a nice neighbourhood in Oakville. If I am lucky to have your precious cats staying with us in my house, they can play with my cats or stay alone whatever they want. I will make sure to provide them everyday clean filtered water to drink, dry and canned food to eat, dust-free litter to use, and toys and cat trees to play with, and of course my love :) We always have somebody at home so very flexible to do home stays for cats. We have 2 cats and one child currently go to school which proves we are responsible and reliable people. I live in a nice clean and big house with fenced yard and finished basement located in Oakville.

Nadia was wonderful! I loved getting all the photos and seeing that Waffles was well taken care of. She played with him a lot and he even let her give him belly rubs. I really hope Nadia is available next time we go away! she made it really easy to not worry about our little guy knowing he was in such good hands
This was my first time using Rover and my first time leaving my cat in our own home instead of taking her to a family member's. I am so grateful that Alicia was available to look after my cat, as she was incredibly kind and helpful! My cat is not aggressive by any means, but as a Calico, she's not the friendliest and Alicia was so patient with her. I really felt like I could trust Alicia and with her open communication, I really felt reassured. I highly recommend Alicia to anyone looking!
Guangxu and Shirley, Were very good and followed all the instructions for jasmines care and food and they came on time. They were constantly in touch when required and also provided us lots of pictures and updates while we were away. Which was very assuring. They were responsive to all questions I had and were very prompt.i would definitely call them again for Jasmine
Thank you Ryan for looking after S’mores so well. We appreciate your updates and photos and look forward to them almost as much as S'mores looks forward to his food and daily brushing! Going away knowing our kitty is well taken care off is very much appreciated. Thank you!!

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Oakville choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.
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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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.
