“I was very happy to know that Mia was in good hands while we had a weekend away. Actually was later than expected and Cynthia was super cool about picking her up whenever I got there. No stress at all. I would recommend them to anyone! Thank you very much!”
“I wish I can give Alison 100 stars. She is the best. She treated my dog as her own, sent pictures everyday & great communication. I was away on vacation & my dog had a hard time with the 1st & 2nd sitter & Alison was able to rescue my dog and welcome her into her home and made me feel st ease. Thank you Alison I definitely recommend anyone to you.”
“Thank you for watching Milo! Bill was very nice and made Milo and us feel comfortable. He sent pictures to me so I could see Milo was doing good and gave updates by text. When my car broke down unexpectedly he drove Milo back to me. Thank you so much for taking care of him! I would recommend them.”
“Chetan is exactly who you want looking after your dog when you need a caregiver for them. He is exceptional and provides multiple video updates daily! He communicates within minutes about drop off and pick up. We would definitely rebook with Chetan and recommend him to our friends and family if ever in need of care for their animals. Thank you again!!!”
“This is our first booking with Rovers. I was very hesitant leaving our fur baby just with anyone. I must say it was a great relief that Catherine was able to provide a safe caring family environment . Catherine exceeded our expectations and we will use this service again Thanks Bernice”
“This was the first time we had left Rudy (4.5 months old) for any extended period of time since she had come home with us. I was very anxious about how she would handle being away from us, but she made a new family at Andrea's! From the many photos I received, it was evident that Rudy was right at home with Andrea. We will definitely be booking her again for any of our dog sitting needs!”
“Buddy had an amazing week in Justine and Inna’s care. He received great care and his complex health needs were covered. If you are looking for a loving home for your fur baby to visit this is the one!!!! I highly recommend 😊”
“This was our first time having our boy Ollie, stay with a non-family member/friend, and we truly could not have picked a better sitter to board him with! Britt sent us several updates throughout the weekend which made us feel good and eased our nerves. Ollie seemed to be so comfortable with her and her home. I highly recommend using Britt for any of her services!”
“Sreeparvathi and Vysakh were truly exceptional caregivers for our Goldendoodle during our 10-day trip. From our initial meet-and-greet to the day we picked him up, they were warm, welcoming, and professional. Their genuine hospitality and dedication to our dog’s well being were evident from the start. They went above and beyond to ensure he felt comfortable and safe, providing consistent love, attention, and care. He was fed on schedule, enjoyed plenty of playtime and walks, and had a wonderful time exploring their spacious backyard. They kept him well groomed and tidy throughout his stay. We especially appreciated the daily updates, complete with photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was happy and thriving under their care. We are deeply grateful for the kindness, reliability, and one-on-one attention Sreeparvathi and Vysakh provided. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking a loving, trustworthy dog sitter and we will absolutely book with them again.”
About: Owned, lived with, and pet sat dogs and cats for over 10 years for friends and family. Dog owner for my entire life with a brief kitty stint. I have a strong understanding of boundaries and behaviours. Nothing brings me more joy than a genuine tail wag 🖤 Working Monday to Friday 9-5 , all federal holidays off. Home no later than 630 pm once a week. Earliest 5 pm. Weekends fully available and I definitely don’t have plans for the long weekend! Big fenced in backyard with a massive tree for partial shade (it cools right down as soon as you step food under its branches ! Medium sized dog pool for those summer days! Lots of grassy space to run and concrete patio to keep those nails dull. Not much back yard activity, deep lot so no hussle and bussle from the street. Lots of paths close by for stimulating walks. I have a large crate available if needed and an extra fridge for any raw food or cooler requirements. Your pet would be outside during play dates, able to come inside at any point with partial access to the home. Part of my home is under renovation and I keep all animals away from that portion with sufficient doors, locks and pet gates. we would have to do a meet and greet prior to ensure our dogs are just as excited to hang out as I am! Play dates available on weekdays after six, weekends, and in advance by request. You’re welcome to bring any toys treats, and special instructions. I would be able to board on weekends and can offer weekdays if your pet is crate trained as I would be at work. if I have the day off or if you’re looking to board your dog here then I do not require or ask for a crate. I always use the crate as an additional measure of safety. If I have to leave the dogs alone any time I have to leave the house. If you decide to do the crate, I would be able to offer live streaming access. I would be able to board at your house one night at a time. If you are comfortable, and our dogs get along, I would be able to do longer. For cat sitting, I would only be able to work out of your home or make drop in visits, whichever is needed. As my dog is not socialized with cats, based off her excitement with squirrels and rabbits, I would not recommend sitting at my home.
“Three weeks of amazing care as we vacation in Perth, Australia. Exceptional care and communication with us even with the 13 hour time difference. Thank you from us and Jojo! 💕🐾”
“Our Zoë is usually a big ball of stress when we have to travel without her but at Mike’s, she’s on her own vacation! Very grateful for Mike and his quality home care with our favourite fur child. 5 stars!”
“Colleen was super easy and professional to communicate with. It was our pups first time with her so the environment was new. That combined with some unexpected fireworks made for some anxious babies. Colleen changed her sleeping arrangements to accommodate them and make them feel safe so everyone could sleep. I was very comfortable and happy that Murph and Eddie stayed with Colleen.”
“I couldn't ask for a better family to look after my dog. They spoiled them every day, took him on daily adventures and sent my family daily video and photos. I have recommended them to my friends and family. If there was a hire than a five staring, I would give it to them.”
“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! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️”
“Krystal is highly recommended.Super considerate, helped us tremendously for an urgent (few hours notice) boarding for our puppy. Our pupper had a great time at her lovely and clean house plus the picture updates were awesome. We will for sure be a repeat clients.”
“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have been luckier than to have found Mariella. Our dogs settled in very quickly and we could tell they were given great care from Mariella and her family.”

“Hillary has been amazing! She provided great communication throughout, with regular updates that gave me real peace of mind. I could tell our Georgia was very well cared for. Highly recommend her services!!”
“This was my first experience using a sitter for Khalie. It was very easy to do and the reviews and profiles on Rover were very helpful in choosing a sitter. My choice was Kristina. She is a lovely person to deal with and very caring and thorough in her job. Went beyond what I expected and provided me with detail feedback and photos daily, not only about my cat, but also general observations about my home. Kristina was not afraid to immediately contact me when needed. Upon my return, I noted that Khalie was her old self. She immediately came from her resting place to greet us and was happy and energetic. I would not hesitate to recommend Kristina for your next sitter.”
“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.”
“Robin was absolutely fantastic! This was my first time leaving Casey alone, and she kept me informed with daily photos and detailed updates. She ensured Casey had food, scooped the litter box daily, and added some play time. I highly recommend Robin and will definitely be booking again!”
“Sherry was an excellent person to have as first time rover users. She was quickly responsive, detailed with her check ins and our kitty warmed up to her on day one. You know its a good person when your pets are comfortable with them! 100 percent will book again in the future!”
“Marlie was wonderful for the job! She took such good care of our cat Zoey while we were away. She dropped in daily to feed her, change her water and check her litter. We appreciated the daily communication and photos. We will absolutely book again with Marlie in the future.”

About: Hi! I’m Laura, and I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for well over 10 years. I’ve cared for my own pets as well as family, friends’, and neighbours’ animals, and I’ve had experience with a wide variety of dog breeds and personalities, including small breeds, large guardian breeds and high-energy herding breeds. I'm the type to occasionally and very casually (and safely) cross the street to ask if I can pet your dog. I’m responsible, active, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’d love to help keep your pets happy and comfortable at home, out on a walk, or just by checking in. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m a mature student in a hybrid program, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend a lot of time with the pets in my care. I’m happy to follow your routines and instructions closely, and I understand that caring for your home is part of the responsibility too. I’ll treat your space with the same care and respect I give your animals. House sitting is my favourite way to care for pets because I know how much easier it can be for them to stay in their own home and follow their usual routine while their people are away. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that means an energetic walk, plenty of fetch or playtime, a quiet companion for a shy cat, or simply keeping an older dog comfortable and settled.
“Casey, was outstanding!!! On time, sent pictures, great communication, litter boxes were cleaned, water full as well as food when we arrived home. To our surprise, our shy cat out of the three went to her. Would definitely recommend!!!!”
“Sarah takes great care of my senior cat, ensuring he has his insulin as needed and is kept company! He’s always happy to see her, and she follows instructions and has great communication. I’ll continue booking with Sarah!”
“Meg was an excellent sitter! She was able to give my reluctant cat his necessary medicine 3 times daily. It gave me peace of mind to know Meg was watching my cat. She kept me updated on his activities promptly. I can't say enough good things about Meg. I will definitely ask Meg to watch my cat again. Thank you Meg for your diligence and patience with Smudge.”
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: I provide gentle, reliable care for cats of all personalities — cuddly, cautious, or independent. With wildlife‑handling experience and a calm approach, I keep routines consistent, homes tidy, and your feline family feeling safe and understood.
“we needed someone to look after our dog at our home for 1 hr, while my wife had some medical exams, and our dog loved his time with Camryn. I would recommend her to take care of your dog. She has easy, quiet mood that somehow calm dogs haha.”
“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!”
“Sophia did drop ins for my puppy Titus and she was fantastic! She promptly responded to messages and made me feel comfortable with leaving my pup with someone else for the first time. I really appreciated how Sophia kept me updated with photos and texts. I would definitely recommend her services!”

“Andrea was all around fantastic. She was able to look after my 4 month old puppy when we needed someone last minute and we are so glad she did! Remy had the BEST day. She made a new friend, spent a great amount of time playing outside and going for walks and even enjoyed a few special snacks and cuddles! Andrea was so easy to speak with and provided photos and updates throughout the day. Remy loved her! We will 100% use Andrea’s services again in the future when needed! ?”

“As owners taking our 9 month old Whippet to daycare for the first time ever, Chetan put all our apprehensions to rest. Our pup Ripple excelled under Chetan's care.

If you want a tired and content dog at the end of the day, Chetan's farm is highly recommended!”

Looking forward to welcoming your pup into our home-away-from-home! ❤️ I do this full time and hence your pet will have a buddy 24/7❤️ We never leave them supervised and give them the best time when they are here ❤️ I have no pets of my own hence your dog will be taken care of like my very own ❤️🐶❤️ We have a huge fensed yard where we play fetch and train together.
“This was our first time using Andrea as our dog walker. I can't thank Andrea enough for her incredible kindness and compassion towards our newly rescue poodle . Even though we hadn't officially started using her services, she went out of her way to come and meet our dog , providing comfort and reassurance as she is afraid of everyone. Her genuine care and willingness to help speak volumes about her character and dedication to animals. Throughout her walks, she consistently went above and beyond, ensuring my dog received the full 30 minutes and more of exercise and attention. Her regular updates and pictures provided me with peace of mind and a glimpse into their enjoyable time together. Andrea made sure our poodle had fresh water after every walk and left her with few treats. Andrea truly exceeded my expectations, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker.”

“I was very happy to know that Mia was in good hands while we had a weekend away. Actually was later than expected and Cynthia was super cool about picking her up whenever I got there. No stress at all. I would recommend them to anyone! Thank you very much!”
“I wish I can give Alison 100 stars. She is the best. She treated my dog as her own, sent pictures everyday & great communication. I was away on vacation & my dog had a hard time with the 1st & 2nd sitter & Alison was able to rescue my dog and welcome her into her home and made me feel st ease. Thank you Alison I definitely recommend anyone to you.”
“This was the first time we had left Rudy (4.5 months old) for any extended period of time since she had come home with us. I was very anxious about how she would handle being away from us, but she made a new family at Andrea's! From the many photos I received, it was evident that Rudy was right at home with Andrea. We will definitely be booking her again for any of our dog sitting needs!”
“Buddy had an amazing week in Justine and Inna’s care. He received great care and his complex health needs were covered. If you are looking for a loving home for your fur baby to visit this is the one!!!! I highly recommend 😊”
“This was our first time having our boy Ollie, stay with a non-family member/friend, and we truly could not have picked a better sitter to board him with! Britt sent us several updates throughout the weekend which made us feel good and eased our nerves. Ollie seemed to be so comfortable with her and her home. I highly recommend using Britt for any of her services!”
About: Owned, lived with, and pet sat dogs and cats for over 10 years for friends and family. Dog owner for my entire life with a brief kitty stint. I have a strong understanding of boundaries and behaviours. Nothing brings me more joy than a genuine tail wag 🖤 Working Monday to Friday 9-5 , all federal holidays off. Home no later than 630 pm once a week. Earliest 5 pm. Weekends fully available and I definitely don’t have plans for the long weekend! Big fenced in backyard with a massive tree for partial shade (it cools right down as soon as you step food under its branches ! Medium sized dog pool for those summer days! Lots of grassy space to run and concrete patio to keep those nails dull. Not much back yard activity, deep lot so no hussle and bussle from the street. Lots of paths close by for stimulating walks. I have a large crate available if needed and an extra fridge for any raw food or cooler requirements. Your pet would be outside during play dates, able to come inside at any point with partial access to the home. Part of my home is under renovation and I keep all animals away from that portion with sufficient doors, locks and pet gates. we would have to do a meet and greet prior to ensure our dogs are just as excited to hang out as I am! Play dates available on weekdays after six, weekends, and in advance by request. You’re welcome to bring any toys treats, and special instructions. I would be able to board on weekends and can offer weekdays if your pet is crate trained as I would be at work. if I have the day off or if you’re looking to board your dog here then I do not require or ask for a crate. I always use the crate as an additional measure of safety. If I have to leave the dogs alone any time I have to leave the house. If you decide to do the crate, I would be able to offer live streaming access. I would be able to board at your house one night at a time. If you are comfortable, and our dogs get along, I would be able to do longer. For cat sitting, I would only be able to work out of your home or make drop in visits, whichever is needed. As my dog is not socialized with cats, based off her excitement with squirrels and rabbits, I would not recommend sitting at my home.
“Three weeks of amazing care as we vacation in Perth, Australia. Exceptional care and communication with us even with the 13 hour time difference. Thank you from us and Jojo! 💕🐾”
“Our Zoë is usually a big ball of stress when we have to travel without her but at Mike’s, she’s on her own vacation! Very grateful for Mike and his quality home care with our favourite fur child. 5 stars!”
“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! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️”
“Esther and Mat are amazing! Kit had a great first stay with them. They sent updates and pictures during her stay. We felt very comfortable leaving Kit and she was happy when we returned. Thank you to them!”
“Ashley was amazing! She helped us out in a pinch with a very last minute request due to an unexpected situation. She even arranged a meet and greet with us in the limited windows of time we gave her. Our dog had so much fun with her and her family and I’m sure will be super excited for another visit. Thanks again!!”
“We highly recommend Courtney and Kevin!! Our Lily stayed with them for 11 days including Christmas and was so well taken care of! They sent plenty of photos and videos and we could tell she felt safe, comfortable and right at home!”
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 lived with animals all my life. I have experience with cats, dogs, hamsters, various types of lizards and chicks. I work full time very close to home. I am available most weekends and evenings for walks or any other needs you may have ! Large unfenced yard Lots of walks, long leashes for free exploration. Can take to dog parks if needed. At home, all animals are allowed on the furniture. Bed included.
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.
“Taryn was absolutely amazing! She took care of both of our dogs after so that they were able to join us for our wedding ceremony! She is very flexible as our drop off times and pickup times were at weird times.”
“Rie and Masahiro did such an amazing job again, watching our pup Ozzie. Ozzie has such a fun time and was well taken care of. I was updated with lots of photos and it looked like they had a blast together. Thank you so much again for taking such good care of Ozzie for us. We will be using Rie and Masahiro again when we need dog sitting!”
“Adriana did a wonderful job looking after my fur baby Finn, she sent updates and pictures regulary, and was always quick with her responses. It left me feeling relaxed while on my holidays, Finn went for hikes and to the big of leash dog park, rain or shine. Her dog Mollie and Finn got along wonderfully. I would deffinalty use her again. Thank you Adriana!!”
