“Jeff took our Viszla into his home for over a week during the holiday season and gave him all the care and love he needed. We got regular photos and updates to show us how he was doing and Jeff made us feel comforted and secure that he was being cared for as if at home. Jeff is flexible with his arrangements and communicates really well - we will definitely use him again!”
“Leaving our 6½-year-old, spoiled, and very needy dachshund with strangers for the first time was pretty scary. But Mana and Ahmed quickly proved to be the best kind of strangers. They were truly the perfect substitute parents, treating Luna as if she were their own dog and providing her with a warm, loving, and attentive home. Through daily photos and messages, we always knew Luna was safe, comfortable, happy, and extremely well cared for. Their kindness and dedication gave us peace of mind; it permitted us to enjoy a completely guilt-free vacation. We are incredibly grateful to Mana and Ahmed for opening their home and heart to our dog and feel very lucky to have met them!”
“Anna was amazing!!! My pup normally is stressed when he comes home from boarding. This time, Oscar was very happy and not stressed upon my return!! Thank you Anna!”
“Giancarlo and his family were amazing. Great communication before, during and after our visit. Our dog Duke had a wonderful stay. We highly recommend this family.”
“Simply amazing!!! Everything with Gian was seamless and amazing! She pampered Alaska for her week stay. Excellent communication, great updates, videos and photos - we were never left wondering how our dog was doing. Alaska came home happy and healthy, and that made us know that we had found the perfect person to take care of our special family member! I am sure Alaska will look forward to her next visit with Gian. We could not have found a better dog-sitter and will definitely keep Gian on our priority list!!”
“Luis was incredible with Ella, and was willing to take care of her on a last minute request. Ella and Blue got along really well and I was extremely happy to see all of the pictures and videos of Ella and Blue playing at the park and resting on the bench!! Luis was a great host, very nice, responded very quickly and he kept me updated daily with how Ella is doing would 100% recommend and definitely will bring Ella back again. Thank you Luis for taking great care of Ella.”
“Lucia has looked after our Luna a few times now and she is excellent! Very communicative and sends photos and videos to share how Luna is doing. I feel very comfortable leaving her in Lucia’s care.”
“Rachel was so amazing with our dog! She kept us updated all the time, and even took on the extra responsibility of giving our dog meds when she needed them. We highly recommend Rachel!”

“Gentiana was so wonderful with our high energy dog! She had other dogs at the home so he had built in best friends! She sent updates and pictures every day which we loved getting!! We will absolutely be booking with her again!! Highly recommend!!”
“Shelly is the best! I trust her with my baby so much so that I booked with her again. I will always book with Shelly because I know my puppy will always be so loved and cared for!!”
“Tracy is extremely reliable and goes above and beyond. We enjoyed the beautiful photos and updates she sent while we were away. Our Golden Retriever, Sunny, loves her time with Tracy and we know she is so well cared for.❤️”
“I left coco with Mary Anne for a little over six weeks and she took great care of him, just like how family would. She is always wonderful with the updates which puts my mind at ease. Coco got the opportunity to socialise with so many other dogs within a safe space. She was kind enough to bathe coco twice during the stay and also kept up to date with his medications etc. I would definitely love to board coco with Mary again. She treated coco like her own and that’s the most important thing that I found lacking with other dog sitters on Rover.”
“Irene took great care of Rosie who took to her right away. She gave her loads of cuddles and walks and she was very happy when we got home. We’ll be using Irene again!”
“Finn clearly enjoyed himself this weekend as he’s been snoozing ever since we brought him home :) Thank you once again for taking such great care of him. It truly gave us peace of mind while we took a much needed break.”
“Ariana was very prompt with answering questions. She was also very flexible about changing the pick up time. Our boys (cats) were very nervous about going to a sitter for the first time, and she was accommodating about this, placing them in a room alone together. Her dog area looked very clean and the dogs seemed to be pretty happy there. We fully intend to use her services should we need them again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oakville
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! ❤️
Thank you Raquel, Greg and Gregory, Juno had a great stay with your family this weekend. All the updates, pictures and videos you shared with us put our minds at ease. We could tell that Juno was well looked after and was having a great time. A big hug to Mina who was so kind towards Juno. We highly recommend Raquel, Greg and Gregory and will definitely leave Juno with them again.
Melissa was absolutely amazing! ❤️ As it was Nala’s first night away from us, we were naturally a little nervous, but Melissa made us feel so comfortable and reassured from the very beginning. She kept us updated throughout, which meant so much to us, and it was clear that Nala was in the best hands. She cared for Nala as if she were her own, with so much love and attention. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience, and we would highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their fur baby. Thank you, Melissa, for taking such wonderful care of our girl! 🐾❤️
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.
Sam, our very shy cocker spaniel, had his first daycare with Geoffrey and Louise yesterday and would seem to have had a great time. After a very comprehensive initial meeting where they both put us at ease we decided to take the plunge and place Sam in their care. This is not a decision we take lightly as he is so precious to us and we have high expectations- both Geoffrey and Louise met those. They provided me (a natural born worrier) with updates and photos throughout the day and Sam looked happy on them, which made me happy too. He is now booked to go for more days and hopefully will form a lovely bond with them.
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!
Hi Abbie and Munib. Thank you once again for taking care of the dynamic duo, Luke and Leia! They were the most relaxed than they have ever been coming home. This is their fourth visit and they adapt better with each trip because of the two of you and this is really comforting to me, being the nervous fur momma that I am. <3
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.
Kathy took care of our cat Lyla for two weeks. This was our first time using Rover so naturally we were very nervous but Kathy was very easy to communicate with and answered all our questions and concerns prior to the booking. During drop off, Kathy gave Lyla space and time to adjust. Throughout the stay, Kathy sent frequent updates with pictures and videos and we could tell Lyla was super comfortable with her. She even made her a catnip toy! We highly recommend booking with Kathy!
