About: I’ve lived with pets my entire life, and have seen all kinds of personalities and needs. I’m always attentive of individual pet needs and treat them like my own. I work full time 8-4 and currently often go away on weekends from Friday-Sunday. Otherwise I’m home the whole time after work to give lots of attention. I can also go home during lunch if ever needed. I’ve recently moved into a new home and have an empty basement at the moment which won’t be furnished for a few more months. Your cat can have their own very large space there with a bedroom included for them. Dogs can enjoy the whole house with me if they are friendly with my cat, and enjoy plenty of space in my large fenced backyard.
“Amazed by the attention and treatment my Oliver received with Dalia and Dan. If I wasn’t moving out of the city, we’d be returning customers 100%! I really appreciated the daily updates and pictures they sent me. Anyone that boards with Dalia and Dan can rest assured their pup will be is good hands. Thank you Dalia and Dan! ❤️”

“I can’t recommend Gail enough! We left our Rocky with her for a few days while we were busy with our wedding and he enjoyed his stay so much! He was very comfortable and the photos that we were sent everyday helped calm our nerves. You can tell that Gail really has a love and appreciation for dogs. We can’t thank her enough ❤️❤️”
About: I’ve taken care of puppies and senior dogs, so I’m pretty comfortable with all ages and their different needs. I honestly just really love dogs, I have one of my own too, so I totally get how important it is to know your pet is in good hands. I’m patient, caring, and I just try to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Right now I’m free every day and anytime because I’m on summer break from university. I could walk or visit your dog in the morning, afternoon or evening. Got it—here’s a version that fits client’s home only and still sounds natural: When I care for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable in their own space. I stick to feeding schedules, give fresh water, take them for walks, and spend time playing with them and keeping them company. I also pay attention to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they need lots of activity, extra patience, or just calm companionship. I keep things clean, respectful, and make sure your home is taken care of as well while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels relaxed, cared for, and not stressed while you’re gone.
“We were planning a trip and knew it would be more difficult to do some of the things on our list with our dog present. So last minute, I googled to try to find a kennel in the area. I've owned dogs my entire life and have never left them somewhere else, so wanted to see what was being offered. I came across Rover and leaving her with a family instead of a kennel sounded so much better; I didn't even know this existed! Valerie got back to me promptly, confirming her availability to watch our Indie. From the moment we arrived, she was warm and welcoming, and we knew Indie would enjoy her stay. We were provided with updates, and they really enjoyed having her there. I highly recommend Valerie to care for your pup; our girl came back happy and healthy, and should we ever need someone to watch her again, we will be making Valerie our first choice !”
“Heather and Pieter were the best with Arya! She had such a good time at their home. She played with their son and received lots of cuddles. We would definitely ask them to take care of Arya anytime in the future. Heather and Pieter are such nice people and I can tell they love dogs and take really good care of them!”
“Michelle C. was absolutely outstanding. My first time leaving my pup with someone for such a long period of time, I was a bit nervous at first. She arranged for us to have a meet and greet, and I immediately felt at ease. Her children were also very lovely, and they bonded with Rufus, which made it that much nicer. Michelle sent me updated pictures of Rufus to help with leaving him, and when we picked him up, he was happy and very healthy. When we go away again, we will definitely leave Rufus with Michelle. Thank you for everything.”
“We've boarded our dog with Cindy and Marc a few times now, and she absolutely loves it. They make her feel completely at home and pamper her so much that she arrives and leaves with her tail wagging every time. Their place is set up perfectly for dogs, and Cindy and Marc always go above and beyond to accommodate her needs and our schedule. The regular pictures and updates throughout her stay give us real peace of mind, knowing she's happy and well cared for while we're away. They're reliable, communicative, and genuinely love what they do. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter.”
“We were pretty sure Jasmin didn't want to come!!!! She obviously had a great time with Kayla!!! Such a great time she slept for 2 days after. Highly recommend Kayla and Jasmin can't wait for her next visit!”

“Brandon is a fantastic communicator and he took excellent care of my very shy cat brothers. They were calm and settled when I returned home. I will definitely use Brandon going forward for my cat sitting needs.”
“Euna responded immediately and had no hesitation about caring for my senior high needs boxer dog who needs to be picked up to be taken outside. She was quick with her response time and always cheerful and polite in her communication. She went out of her way to go to my mothers house to care for Lexi and showed up exactly at the specified times. I could not be more grateful. I would highly recommend Euna to anyone!”
About: I’ve had cats my whole life and would consider myself a big cat lover. Over the years life gained a lot of exposure to cats with medical needs, as both of my sweet boys have some special additions to their care routines. I’m very comfortable supporting your cat in whatever way he or she needs.
About: Cats have been a part of my life since my teenage years. My very first cat was a beautiful female Siberian Forest Cat. Her name was Conga. I have experience administering oral medication if needed as I've had to do this many times for my own pets over the years. I spent two and a half years working on a farm ( as a bookkeeper) where I had daily interactions with feral cats and often cleaned their wounds or treated minor eye issues. I am friendly and inviting around cats but respect the individuality of each one. Some like cuddles, others do not, they will let me know their comfort level. Some are skittish, others are very social. It is important to me that they feel safe. When I do drop-in visits with your cat, I give them time for pets and cuddles, playtime with a toy they can chase, and I brush their fur ( if they are comfortable with it). I always like to send you videos/pictures of our time together. I also clean up after your pet (of course!). If there is anything else you need while you are away, I am willing to help. Example: bringing in your mail, taking out the garbage/recycling or watering your plants....
About: What truly sets me apart is my calm, confident energy and my belief that every dog deserves love, safety, and stimulation — even when you can’t be there. I treat every pet like my own, because I know how much they mean to you. I have experience administering medication orally and applying medication to skin for cats.
“My first time using Paula through Rover and it was a great experience! My cats seemed to take to Paula right away and I love the photo updates. I felt they were in safe, caring hands and was never worried about them. I plan to use Rover and Paula again in the future. Thanks Paula, Mike Cormier”
“Michelle was great with Pumpkin. She kept me informed daily about his well being, sent pictures. I was concerned about leaving him because he recently was diagnosed with diabetes. Michelle was great with his feeding and giving him his insulin. I will be using her services again.”

I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow each pet’s individual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and medications when needed. As a mom of two children, I’m very patient and attentive to the little things.

“Alma took great care of my dog Mako. He is quite an anxious dog, but she was so patient and kind with him that I was not worried about leaving him all day when I had to go to work. You can tell she loves dogs, and really wants to make their stay comfortable and enjoyable. I would trust Alma again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”

They have a great space for playtime and it looked like our girl had a great time. Will definitely be booking again! Thank you Gerardo and Maryangie.”
“I honestly can’t recommend Praneet enough. Before meeting him, I had never left Crypto with anyone in the year and a half I’ve had him. Like many dog parents, I have separation anxiety too, so trusting someone with him was a huge step for me. From our very first phone call, Praneet made me feel comfortable and confident. Instead of simply accepting the booking, he suggested a meet-and-greet first. We met at a dog park where Crypto was surrounded by other dogs, and Praneet spent about an hour with us. During that time, he not only got to know Crypto but also taught me so much about dog behaviour and body language. I learned a lot from that one meeting, and it gave me complete confidence in his knowledge and experience. After our meet-and-greet, I booked Crypto for three days of daycare. I honestly started noticing a positive change in his walks within just a day or two. Seeing that progress made me decide to hire Praneet as Crypto’s trainer as well. Crypto is going in for surgery soon, so we’ll be starting our training sessions once he’s fully recovered. The biggest sign for me is how much Crypto loves going there. Every time I tell him we’re going to see Praneet, he gets excited. When I pick him up, he’s always happy, relaxed, and never stressed or panicked. In fact, he even whines when it’s time to leave Praneet! I have to admit, I was a little jealous—but it’s also the best reassurance a dog parent can ask for. Throughout the day, Praneet kept me updated with messages, photos, and videos whenever I asked. He wasn’t just taking care of Crypto—he was also helping me overcome my own separation anxiety. Thank you, Praneet, for taking such amazing care of Crypto. It’s rare to find someone who genuinely cares about dogs the way you do. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and caring sitter or trainer. You are truly the best .. I can’t thank you enough. Crypto and I are both lucky to have found you—even if I’m still a little jealous that he doesn’t want to leave you! 😄”
“Teddy's first doggie daycare with Priyanka. He seemed very comfortable with her. Priyanka sent me some beautiful photos of him . He will be back for an extended stay when I'm on vacation. I feel a lot less stressed now as Teddy seems to really like her. Thk you Priyanka!”

“Euna was great!!!! She was able to help me out last minute with my dogs after being ghosted by a different Rover sitter.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 6 years old , I remember how scared I was when I met my first dog , his name was sultan and honestly he was the one who took care of me and after that my love for them just expanded and still every time I see a dog I fall in love them . I work part time so so you can leave your loved one with me at nights or afternoons and for mornings we can figure something out . Note - there will be an additional charge depending on the distance I have to travel to get to your house.(estimate $6-8 for short distances) I work part time , so I am mostly home I usually take a one dog at a time unless your pet is comfortable with other pets. Before we book I prefer doing a meet and greet where we can talk and arrange something that meets your needs. I currently don’t have any pets of my own here , but I have an immense love for animals especially dogs , I live in a townhouse with a back yard where we can play and we can visit the nearby parks or trails if that’s what you want for your loved one .
About: I’ve had/taken care of many different types of dogs/cats for as long as I can remember! I grew up with alot of animals in the house and currently have 4 dogs & 3 cats at home! I just moved back to Niagara and I’m looking to hangout with some cats and/or walk some pups in my downtime to get them and myself outside a bit! I usually live in a van fulltime so I can’t take animals into my home but I’d love to come take them for a walk to get out during the day!
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life through my family for thirty-three years and cats for twenty-five. Two years ago I adopted my first dog and greatest friend in life, a Golden Retriever named Chewie! Twelve years ago I initially fostered but later adopted two Bombay cats I named Luke and Leia. Luke passed away in 2020 but Leia is still as young as ever at twelve years old! I’m currently looking to make a career change from human services into animal care and seek further knowledge of animals to further my passion for animals! I have a fenced yard for my two year old Golden Retriever so he can roam the yard and do his business as he pleases.
About: I personally own a two-year-old half Mastiff and half Bulldog who is well-trained and well-behaved. Through my experience caring for him, I have developed strong confidence and capability in handling, walking, and managing dogs responsibly. I have full availability and am flexible with scheduling. Regardless of the day or weather conditions—rain or shine—I am fully committed to providing reliable, attentive, and high-quality care for your dogs. I carefully follow all client instructions to ensure their dogs are cared for exactly as requested. As a devoted dog owner, I treat my own dog like family—providing proper nutrition, attentive care, and a safe, loving home.
About: I grew up with animals around me while growing up on a farm. I love them, I respect their space and boundaries, and I always try to make them feel comfortable and loved ❤️ Available 7 days a week. Very flexible schedule even on the weekends. I typically spend my day taking care of my 3 cats with varying needs. I will respect your home and do my best to keep it clean and tidy while I’m there. I’ll make sure your pet is comforable, with plenty of play and exercise! I’ll make sure to clean food and water bowls, clean up their waste areas (litterboxes, pee pads, etc.), and give many cuddles if they're comfortable with me!

“Cynthia and David were amazing. They took wonderful care of my senior dog, Maya. Regular updates and pictures along the way allowed us to relax on our holiday knowing Maya was in safe hands. We’ll definitely book again with them next time we’re away.”
“Alison is awesome. It was first time for me & my dog to use Boarding services, was so nervous but Alison took all the nervousness away. She was keeping me posted with photos & videos of my dog, was sending detailed message that how's my dog doing. My dog had best time at her place. She is wonderful and understand your emotions that how it feel to be away from your furbaby. Such homely care she provided to my furbaby. Sincerely thankful to Alison. Take care.”

Your doggo will have a great time with Britt and Mona ♥️”
“Our dog Lucy had a great 10 day stay with Mike. We received daily feedback including pictures and videos. It was great to know she was safe and happy. She had several walks and went to the bush for exersise. She had lots of playtime with Tao and Finn and other dogs staying at Mike’s and loved the big back yard to roam. Mike and Yummi also gave Lucy cuddles and made her feel loved while we were gone. I would highly recommend Mike if you want your dog to enjoy a vacation while you enjoy yours!”
About: I’ve lived with pets my entire life, and have seen all kinds of personalities and needs. I’m always attentive of individual pet needs and treat them like my own. I work full time 8-4 and currently often go away on weekends from Friday-Sunday. Otherwise I’m home the whole time after work to give lots of attention. I can also go home during lunch if ever needed. I’ve recently moved into a new home and have an empty basement at the moment which won’t be furnished for a few more months. Your cat can have their own very large space there with a bedroom included for them. Dogs can enjoy the whole house with me if they are friendly with my cat, and enjoy plenty of space in my large fenced backyard.
“Alma is an angel on earth with Dogs! My two Huskies mean the world to me and finding Alma to take care of my huskies overnight was a gift… I’m not sure why I chose her but I did and I have no regrets whatsoever! And obviously I’m gonna be a repeat customer to her and I know my Huskies are like family to her! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️”
“We had a perfect experience leaving our dog and cat with Rie & Masahiro! They were very thoughtful and asked questions to get to know the pets individually. They updated us very frequently with pictures and videos and always kept an open line of communication. We highly recommend this lovely couple! Will definitely be reaching out again for our future trips.”
“Angela and her family took great care of Neko! It was clear they made him feel at home and I was very comfortable leaving him in her care. I definitely recommend Angela to anyone looking for a safe, fun, and loving environment to leave their fur baby!”
“Heather and Pieter were the best with Arya! She had such a good time at their home. She played with their son and received lots of cuddles. We would definitely ask them to take care of Arya anytime in the future. Heather and Pieter are such nice people and I can tell they love dogs and take really good care of them!”
“Michelle C. was absolutely outstanding. My first time leaving my pup with someone for such a long period of time, I was a bit nervous at first. She arranged for us to have a meet and greet, and I immediately felt at ease. Her children were also very lovely, and they bonded with Rufus, which made it that much nicer. Michelle sent me updated pictures of Rufus to help with leaving him, and when we picked him up, he was happy and very healthy. When we go away again, we will definitely leave Rufus with Michelle. Thank you for everything.”
“Shelly and her family have been wonderful. She was very communicative, sending updates and answering messages very quickly. I'm sure Xulgo had a blast with them all and he was very well taken care for. I will book with Shelly again for sure. 🙂”
“Great with Casper We had peace of mind while attending a family wedding away Had so much contact everyday on Casper and updates on his dialysis routine He seemed to be on vacation with Prashant and apeksha. We would diffidently recommend him and use them again Thank you for making it easy for us all”
“Meg was fantastic!! Our yorkie Tyson is an anxious dog and has never stayed with anyone but family. Tyson felt super comfortable with her right from the start. She was so loving and took care of him as her own. She has strong communication and kept me up to date with how he was doing and sent me pictures throughout his stay (which also put my mind at ease). Meg is super professional and you can see she genuinely loves animals. We will definitely work with Meg again- Thanks so much for everything!!”
About: We’re a family of pet lovers with a friendly small dog, a big backyard, and lots of love to give! We’re home most of the time, so your pet will get plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, and outdoor time. We treat every pet like part of our family and strive to make their stay feel like a home away from home. We work from home, so there is always someone at home. We walk every morning and every evening. There is a big park and school close to us that we frequent. We have a large fenced yard. We do regular walks, and have structured meal times. We have cat experience as well and can clean litters and maintain cleanliness for all pets.
About: I have a innate love of animals. Large or small, confident or timid, young or old, they all have a place in my heart. I am patient, adaptable and calm even when others may not be. My critical thinking skills help me to troubleshoot any situation your pet might challenge me with. I always look for a win-win outcome. Your pets walk and play time every day is an important part of their lives, and I look forward to spending my time with them. Georgia is an American Staffy that we rescued last year, at approximately 1 years old. Since then we have focused on all levels of training, including agility, to help deal with her reactivity. We have made tremendous progress over the last year with her. I am available between 7 and 6 Monday to Saturday. Sundays and holidays can also be accommodated. My flexible schedule means that I can provide care on your schedule. I know that timing and routine are important to your pet and yourself, and I am punctual and dependable. I understand how important the safety of your furry friend is to you. Should your pet join us in our home, they will have the opportunity to enjoy our fully fenced back yard during play time. During walking times, there are many lovely trails and pathways in our quiet residential neighborhood that we can enjoy together.
“Lynn was great with Coco. She walked couple regularly and gave us several updates on how she was doing and sent us some pictures. Thank you so much Lynn. We will book you again!”
