“Lise is amazing. She was able to accommodate us on short notice which we greatly appreciated. Sent messages, pics, and updates every day! Lise clearly loves dogs and knows what she is doing. A real blessing to not worry about Mylee so we could enjoy our trip! A lovely experience start to finish. ❤️”
“Amy is a wonderful sitter, went away for a week and had no concerns about leaving Molly. Amy provided regular updates and I know Molly was treated like a part of the family. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“I had an excellent experience with Bonnie as our dog sitter. My dog was truly happy and relaxed the entire time, and I really appreciated the constant updates and photos. It gave me complete peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I highly recommend Bonnie!”
“Deb and Eric are incredibly welcoming, flexible and friendly! We quickly received updates, and our dog felt right at home from the moment we dropped them off. Their house is a perfect set up in a quiet neighborhood with a fully fenced backyard. Their daughters did great with Quito as well. We already have Quito’s next stay booked with Deb and Eric!”
“Melanie and her family took such amazing care of our girl Winnie! I could see that she immediately felt at ease and comfortable in their home. Melanie was very caring and attentive to all her need; you can tell she truly loves animals (and they love her back). She. Is also very responsive, sending regular updates and photos. I highly recommend her services and would have Winnie stay with her again in a heartbeat!!”
“Lisa and her family were very welcoming. It was our first time using Rover, and we are extremely satisfied. If you’re looking for someone that will go above and beyond, and treat your dog as their own, look no further. Will book with Lisa again, guaranteed!”
“Bonnie always has a great time with Mark and Crizaline (and Arlo)! They even took her to a NYE party so she could ring in the new year. Thank you as always for taking such great care of my girl!”
“Couldn’t have asked for a better babysitter for our Winnie. Ceny and her family treated her like she was her own, sending us wonderful photo updates everyday, exceeded our expectations in every way. Highly recommend, would defiantly book her again! 🥰”
“Nelisa has been an absolute pleasure to deal with since the beginning. She sent pictures and videos and brought our family comfort in knowing our Nala was well taken care. We will certainly be using Nelisa again and highly recommend her to anyone in the Barrie/Innisfil area.”
“Stella took great care of our dog while we were away. We really appreciated the updates and pictures, so we could see how he was doing, and the extra effort she gave to make sure he was eating. Thank you Stella!”
“Amanda and Bryan are amazing! My boxer is a little timing, needing extra love and care and Amanda and her family were so great with him. They treated him like their own, so much so that he was so sad coming home. I would absolutely recommend them and wouldn't hesitate to board with them in the future!”
“Pubalee and Indranil were amazing sitters and took such great care of our Ava. She had an upset tummy at the time, but under their care, she did wonderfully. We’re so grateful for their kindness, attention, and care.”
“We were so pleased with the care Jennifer provided Williwduribg our time away.daily updates gave us a piece of mind the helped us enjoy our holiday stress free. She is truly a caring person who made our Willow feel safe and welcome. A great fit for us, Jennifer is an amazing caregiver! ?”
“Cyndy was there in a pinch for me. I felt comfortable leaving my doggo with her. She took him for a run and gave him lots of cuddles. She was communicative and he came home happy. Highly recommend.”
“We recently had the pleasure of having Darlene care for our dog, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. As first-time clients, we were a bit nervous leaving our dog with someone new, but Darlene made the whole process really easy and stress-free. She was friendly, reliable, and kept us in the loop the whole time, which we really appreciated. We’re so grateful to have found someone so dependable and compassionate. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Darlene to anyone looking for a great dog sitter!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Bonnie! Christa kept us updated with photos/videos and messages, making us feel at ease the whole week. Bonnie got plenty of exercise, snuggles, and even enrichment puzzles to keep her engaged. She also had a blast playing with Lucy! Bonnie can be a bit of a rascal but Christa handled her with patience and care. It was clear she was happy, loved, and well cared for. We’d book with Christa again in a heartbeat.”
“I have so many good things to share about our experience with Mana and her husband, Ahmed. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Out of 6 people I interviewed, Mana was the only person with whom I felt comfortable leaving our dog, Kodi. Mana and Ahmed spent a good amount of time getting to know me and getting to know our dog. We had two visits and a daycare visit before letting him stay overnight. She had a questionnaire for us to fill out, which helped me organize a lot of extra information about his specific needs. Throughout his visit, she sent pictures and videos to show us what he was up to. Daily walks were awesome, walking with their dog. They took him for a good hike, which he loves, and he was even able to go in the river for a dip. Kodi was able to relax in his own area or wherever the family was seated. Mana took a good leadership role with my dog, and she was able to move him along the path of being with another dog. Mana problem solved when Kodi did not want to eat and with other small problems that cropped up. She even made special treats in his size! Ahmed loved Kodi’s attention, and he gave him lots of attention. We were able to enjoy our time away, knowing that our dog was well cared for and as happy as he could be away from us. Thank you, Mana and Ahmed.”

Very grateful to Sharon for keeping good care of our dog Maple for 4 nights. Sharon sent photos and videos of our happy dog and kept us updated on how Maple was settling in. Sharon was able to follow Maple’s special diet, and administer her daily medications. Thank you very much! Highly recommend Sharon for all dog boarding needs.
The best dog boarder. Our dog was on his own vacation with Raquel and her family. He swam in her pool, enjoyed hiking in the park and the companionship of the house dog, Mina. Our dog also enjoyed all the hugs and affection from the family especially, from her husband, Greg who cheered with our dog during the soccer, FIFA matches. Many photos were sent to me during the dog’s stay with Raquel for peace of mind that my dog was well looked after. Highly recommend this loving family.
We couldn't be happier with the incredible care Kathy provided for our two cats while we were away on vacation! Because our cats are highly affectionate and require a lot of attention, finding the right sitter was so important to us. Kathy working remotely from home was a huge plus, and she freely and happily gave them all the love and companionship they needed. Since they were staying at her apartment, Kathy was amazing at giving them the exact time and space they needed to acclimate to a new environment. She clearly understands cat body language and behavior perfectly. She also sent hundreds of photos (as we requested!), which gave us complete peace of mind. By the end of their stay, our cats were completely at home—sleeping in bed with her and making biscuits on her tummy! They had their own wonderful mini-vacation and returned to us healthy, safe, and incredibly happy. Kathy cared for them as if they were her own, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a stellar cat sitter. Thank you, Kathy!
This is the first time using Rover and wow I picked well. Louise and Jeffrey were absolutely fantastic! My pup suffers with anxiety and they both showed so much love and understanding to her. I had daily communications and photos of how she was doing . My pups first time away from us and she had a wonderful time. I will not hesitate to use Louise and Jeffrey again, it was a brilliant experience from start to finish
Julia is amazing and she took care of Dudu exactly the way I asked during the four-day boarding. She followed all the instructions and made sure Dudu feel comfortable and safe, and sent me many photos and videos. I highly recommend Julia and will definitely book again if needed.
I highly recommend Shuxian she takes such great care of Maggie my labradoodle. I have been leaving Maggie since August 2024 . Received daily updates and pictures while away on my two week vacation. Knowing that Maggie is well taken care of means a lot. She misses Chestnut 😊
Bonnie and her husband were absolutely wonderful with Penny! They took care of her like she was their own pup, providing all of the necessities but also going over and above by playing with her and teaching her new tricks! I also loved the frequent updates along with pictures. Thank you for taking the best care of our pup!
David is an amazing dog sitter, we will certainly rebook In the future! We received great updates of pictures, videos, and feedback on how our dog was adjusting to the new environment. We felt completely assured that our dog was in the best hands throughout the week, and that he will actually miss being in David’s care, as he had a great week with many experiences during fun walks ⭐️
Abbie and Munib are incredible cat-sitters - they couldn't have been more gracious and kind. Léon (my cat) appears to have had a swell time with them. He was calm on the car ride home - he usually loathes car rides and meows loudly whenever he's in a moving vehicle. Absolutely recommend - the best in the biz!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Oakville on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of June 2026, there are 5,438 sitters on Rover offering Pet Boarding across Oakville. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 81% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
