We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Darlene to anyone looking for a great dog sitter!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and recently said goodbye to our beloved dog, who lived to be 19 years old. Having him in my life taught me so much about caring for dogs at every stage of their lives. I understand how important it is to give dogs love, patience, and attention, and I would love to provide that same care for your furry family member. My boyfriend and I both work from home, so your dog will have plenty of company, cuddles, and attention throughout the day! My boyfriend and I both work from home, so we’re around throughout the day to give your pup plenty of love and attention! We’re able to easily fit walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddle breaks into our daily routine. Your dog will have lots of company and won’t have to spend long hours alone. We also have flexible schedules, allowing us to adjust to your dog’s usual routine and needs. We know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your dog with someone else.

Another great stay with Raquel and Greg. Murphy had an absolute blast and came home happy and tuckered out after a stay full of daily walks and hikes.

This was our first time using Rover and had a great experience! Regan our senior dog had a meet and greet with Lisa and her family and we felt she was very comfortable so we decided to use her services for 5 days Lisa updated us with how Regan was doing and sent pictures which helped us tremendously! We picked up a happy and relaxed dog at the end of her stay ! We will definitely use Lisa again!
We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Floppy! She was incredibly caring, gentle, attentive, and thoughtful throughout the entire experience. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Floppy’s comfort and happiness, and that gave us so much peace of mind. Floppy was very happy, relaxed, and comfortable with her, which means everything to us. We are truly grateful for the love and care she gave Floppy and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pet. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our little Floppy! ❤️
I’m incredibly grateful to have discovered Ethan. He provided exceptional care for our little Milo, ensuring that he was always comfortable and happy. Ethan’s kindness and attentiveness were truly remarkable, making a significant difference in Milo’s experience. I wholeheartedly recommend Ethan to anyone in need of reliable and compassionate care for their pets. Without a doubt, I would send Milo back to him in the future. :)
Bonnie was amazing with Lily our two year old standard poodle. She took care of her for two weeks. This was the first time we’ve left our pet with a non-family member. Bonnie went above and beyond and looked after Lily as if she was her own. Bonnie’s constant communication assured us Lily was happy and doing well. We’ve already booked Bonnie for next year.
Jacky and Rocio (and Abby) were great with my dog Muffy. I was gone for almost 2 weeks to Europe and my dog had never stayed with a dogsitter before, so I was a bit nervous. Jacky and Rocio did a great job sending me updates and photos. Unfortunately Muffy had some diarrhea while I was gone, and they kept in close communication with me to let me know how she was doing. They even reached out to my vet for advice to make sure Muffy was OK. I would definitely use them again to dogsit in the future!
This was our first time leaving our 2 year old Morkie, Gigi with a dog sitter through Rover. Portia was the perfect choice, as she is very patient and caring which made our dog instantly feel very comfortable when we left her for an overnight stay. Portia’s home is very clean and she kept us updated through text and pictures on how your fur baby is doing. Portia has a very friendly dog, Simba who was very gentle with Gigi and they enjoyed their walks outdoors. Thanks Portia for taking such good care of Gigi.
We are very grateful to Ariana for taking care of our 5 year old golden doodle. He has never been away from home and he was staying for 8 days with Ariana. But he was very active and happy, and was well taken care of. He sure enjoyed the hikes and long walks with her.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Oakville is $59 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $78 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
sitters in Oakville have an average of 12 years of experience. Each sitter has their own unique experience and skill sets for different types of pets. You can find details of each sitter’s potential certifications and abilities, such as pet first-aid or senior pet experience, listed on their profile. Look at other pet parent reviews and repeat pet parent booking rates for an idea of their pet care exp erience.

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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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.
You and your Oakville sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
