“We had an excellent experience with Selina and Pascal! They were very communicative, easy-going, and friendly. We got updates several times a day and felt confident our dog was receiving amazing care. Our dog took to them very quickly - he’s normally unsure around men, but he even warmed up to Pascal amazingly quickly. We will definitely book with them again in the future.”
“Stephanie took wonderful care of my dog, Kobe, while we were away for three days. She kept us updated with photos throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind and made it clear he was happy and well cared for. It was such a relief knowing he was in good hands while we were on vacation. I would absolutely recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“My dogs, Moose and Chester, had an amazing stay at the farm! Ashley was incredibly kind and kept me updated throughout their time with her, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear how much she truly loves and understands animals. She even administered Chester’s medication with no issues. The boys were happy, comfortable, and so well cared for. I couldn’t ask for a better place for them! I highly recommend!”
“It’s always great to leave arya with Benjamin!!! She loves his family and she is always very very happy!! Benjamin takes her out on walks and provides lots of cuddles and love to Arya. I hope she Can always stay with Benjamin’s family whenever we travel!”
“Here's a polished version of your review: My experience with Britanie was excellent. She took great care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay by sending pictures and messages. I really appreciated her communication and attention to detail. She was also very flexible with both pick-up and drop-off times, which made everything convenient and stress-free. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
“Samantha awesome took such great care of my fur baby, so happy she was left overnight with her. My fur baby and myself both have separation anxiety and first time leaving her with someone thats not family outside my home and she went above and beyond to make sure she well taken care of.

“Coralie and Kevin took marvellous care of our huskies!! It was such a relief being able to leave town while knowing our dogs were in such a great environment. First of all, their home is lovely and has a perfect yard where dogs can burn their energy. Second, they are so kind, welcoming and have a very gentle dog who got along great with my busy huskies. I was nervous leaving my dogs in a new place; however, they provided updates and kept an open line of communication with very prompt replies; which really brought peace of mind while being away. I would highly recommend booking with them. It was our first time, and certainly not our last! :)”
“Bridget took my 2 boys on a last minute request. They came home so happy & tired. She was very accommodating & understanding when I had to extend their stay. Her communication was wonderful and kept me in the loop on how they were doing. I won’t use anyone else to watch my boys now. Could not recommend more. Thank you Bridget!”
About: Hi, We’re a fun, active family of three (plus our own beloved cat) who truly love animals. We’re a dream team; we’re reliable, active pet sitters with a 4-year-old child and a hybrid work schedule, giving us plenty of flexibility to provide attentive, in-home care. Whether it’s feeding, walks, play sessions, or just keeping your pets’ company, we treat every animal with the love and attention they deserve. With two beloved dogs of our own in the past — a Black Lab and a German Shepherd — We know firsthand the joy (and responsibility) that comes with caring for furry family members. Though they’ve since passed, we still miss the daily walks, playtime, and cuddles, which is why we love pet sitting. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just quiet companionship, we treat every pet like part of our own family. Your furry friends will feel right at home with us—safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Looking forward to meeting your furry friends! 🐾 Hybrid work schedule which gives me a lot of flexibility to take care of any of your needs. Lots of time for walks and for cuddles and down time. Large backyard with lots of space to move around. Very active family for daily physical needs and lots of love for the furry friends for all the cuddle needs.
“Jessica and Tyler were incredible with Chester. Jessica sent plenty of updates, showing just how spoiled he was. I would recommend Jessica without hesitation. We have one exhausted puppy, which tells me just how happy he was and how much he enjoyed himself.”
“We could not be more grateful to have Josee take care of our pup for almost two weeks. She went above and beyond, taking her on all kinds of adventures, and sending the most thoughtful updates. It made for a stress free vacation! Highly recommend her as a sitter!”
“First time leaving Ruby alone without a family member watching her and Valerie was amazing with her. Picked her up with no issues must of had a great time as she is fast asleep beside me now 😄”
“We had an amazing experience with Kathrine! Communication was easy and seamless from the start, and she was incredibly accommodating with both drop off and pick up times, which made everything stress free. Our dogs had such a great time with her on their two night stay and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Our dog Toffee had the best time with Soha and her dog Bully. Our dog is a nervous pup, especially in new environments, but Soha made her feel so welcome from the first introduction and is one of the kindest sitters we have had the pleasure of interacting with. We received regular updates throughout Toffee’s stay. We highly recommend Soha and will definitely be a returning customer.”
“Jamie instantly made me feel that my dog was in great hands! During Ozzy’s visit, she took multiple photos of their activities and put my mind at ease! I will definitely be using her services again! My dog is only 9 months old and definitely can be a lot. Jamie took care of his needs like a champ! Thanks again!!!”
“Tanya is great!!! I would recommend 100%! She was amazing with our Cockapoo who has separation anxiety. Our dog Bella was even sitting on her lap and enjoying herself. Our dog was not comfortable at the kennel and would even try to bite the workers there out of fear. I was very hesitant that she would do well with a sitter. Tanya reassured me that our dog would be ok and sent pictures and updates often. I was happy to see Bella smiling and looking relaxed!! What a relief to go away and not worry! We will be returning for sure.”
“Krista and Marc were amazing with our dog, made me feel very comfortable to leave my fur baby with them from the first moment I met them. She took such great care of Charlie and gave him lots of love, walks, treats, made him feel safe when he was worried, and sent me updates and pictures throughout his stay. 100% recommend!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have experience with a wide range of breeds, sizes and personalities, from Yorkies to German Shepherds. My mom also bred a few litters when I was in my 20s, so I’ve spent lots of time around puppies as well. I currently have a dog of my own and am comfortable following whatever routine and care instructions you have in place. I’m home throughout the day and have a pretty flexible schedule, so I’m available for pet care during the week and on weekends. I can usually work around different schedules and routines depending on what you need. I have a fully fenced yard with plenty of space for dogs to get outside and play. I’m happy to follow whatever routine you already have in place, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care and any specific instructions. I understand that every pet is different and will follow what works best for yours.

“I recently had the pleasure of having Olivia care for my cat Nala, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear that she genuinely loves animals and took the time to understand Nala’s needs and personality. During my time away, Olivia provided regular updates, including photos, which put my mind at ease. When I returned, Nala was calm, happy, and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and professional cat sitter!”

About: Les chats font partie de mon parcours de vie depuis l’enfance. J’apprécie particulièrement leur indépendance, leur sensibilité et leurs personnalités uniques. Je respecte leur rythme et leurs limites : présence tranquille, jeux, gratouilles à leur demande, repas, litière propre et médicaments oraux au besoin. Avec moi, votre chat peut simplement être… un chat. 🐾
“Nevaeh was great! She took on our request very last minute, and really got us out of a jam caused by another sitter that cancelled on us a day and a half before we were leaving. After meeting her we knew that our cats would be in very good hands. Thank you Nevaeh!”
“We are more then thankful and grateful for Abigail’s pet sitting services. Our Luna was loved and taken care of by Aby. She sent me updates and pictures throughout the week. The house was immaculate when we returned. She even took out the huge pile of garbage we add accumulated through winter. I recommend her services ? %. We will definitely be booking with her in the future. Thank you Abigail. Luna misses you ? Martine and Adison”

About: I have been honoured to be from a very animal Oriented family and have lived on a farm for most of my life. I have cared for and have given the best care and love to animals such as, Guinea pigs, cats, turtles, horses, dogs, and pretty much everything else you can imagine. I was born an animal lover and every animal becomes my family. I can identify special needs in any animal such as first aid, anxiety issues etc I work from home, so your pet has 24/7 attention. Be prepared for your loved one to get 3-4 walks a day along with an hour play time or a trip to the dog park daily! I have a fenced yard. My golden retriever is very patient and loves all types of dogs. If your dog is allowed on the couch or bed, well so is mine. I would rather your dog be able to cuddle and be comfy right beside me during the night to make them feel trust, and feel more comfortable in a strange environment. I am able to make every animal feel like home. Just ask my references … if your dog likes burger patties from McDonalds or pup cups from star bucks… I’m your girl… I am very experienced with highly reactive and aggressive dogs as well. Unfortunately, I do Have a dog of my own, but can manage very well as I am highly trained with aggressive dogs. I believe all dogs can be trained in a well loved and supportive environment once triggers are identified I spoil every animal like it’s my own! Great with puppies and super forgiving. We all make mistakes even if it’s our furniture!!! I have tons of training experience to make this not happen! I am fear based certified as I am a canine enrichment volunteer at the Ottawa Humane Society
“We were drawn to Ashley’s for its country setting thinking it would be a great place for our energetic 9 month old puppy and we were not disappointed. Ashley agreed to a meet and greet the day before our booking to tour the grounds and meet 2 other dogs that would be there the next day. Ashley also sent us an update and pictures while walking the dogs. We knew we had made the right choice when our puppy returned to Ashley before jumping into our vehicle at pick-up time.”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of various breeds, sizes, and personalities. While I am new to Rover, I have regularly looked after dogs for family and friends, providing them with a safe, comfortable, and loving environment while their owners were away. I currently own a friendly Golden Retriever named Kobe who gets along well with other dogs and loves making new friends. Caring for my own dog has given me hands-on experience with daily exercise, feeding routines, basic grooming, administering medications when needed, and recognizing the importance of maintaining a dog's regular schedule. My family and I have a large, fully fenced yard that provides plenty of space for dogs to run and play safely. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, active playtime, or simply relaxing in a comfortable home environment, I will make sure they receive the attention, care, and exercise they need. I understand that every dog is unique, and I strive to provide personalized care that helps each pet feel safe, happy, and at home while their owners are away. My family and I have a very flexible schedule that allows us to provide plenty of attention and care for your dog. I am currently on paternity leave for the summer, and my wife is on maternity leave until September 2027, which means someone is almost always home to supervise and care for your pet. Once I return to work, I will continue working from home two days per week, while my wife remains home full-time. This allows us to maintain a consistent and comfortable environment for dogs staying with us. We are also available on weekends and can accommodate a variety of schedules. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. Dogs staying with us are treated like part of the family and cared for in a safe, loving home environment. We have a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can run, play, and get plenty of exercise. Our dog Kobe, loves meeting new friends and is always happy to have a playmate. We are a family with two young children, so dogs staying with us should be comfortable around kids. Our children have grown up around dogs and are taught to be gentle and respectful with animals. All interactions are supervised to ensure everyone remains safe and comfortable. I take the time to learn each dog's routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special instructions. Whether your dog enjoys lots of activity or prefers a quieter day, I will do my best to make them feel right at home. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else is a big decision. That's why I provide a safe, caring environment along with regular updates and photos, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I've been taking care of animals my whole life. Neighbors, friends and family rely on me babysit their pets while they are away, and call on me in emergency situations for advice with behavioural or health related issues. My love for animals knows no bounds - I currently volunteer with Marshall's Dog Rescue as well as Freedom Dog Rescue and only babysit when I do not have a foster in home. I have experience with puppies as young as 8 weeks as well as older, senior dogs. I work in a seasonal industry and as such, am laid off for the winter months. I am home all day and able to walk and play with your pup until we are both exhausted! I live in a quiet village with lots of back roads, perfect for quiet walks. I have a pack of aussie mixes - two rescues - so there will also be friends to play with and your pup will never be lonely. Is there something you've been trying to work on with your dog? A trick? Crate training? Let me know and I'll be happy to help while they're with me!
“Oslo had a great time with Bridget and Glenn for daycare. Their flexible, open approach provides oslo with supervised freedom and is so much better for him than traditional kennel boarding where he alone in a kennel for most of the day. I trust Bridget and Glens experience completely, and the flexible pick-up and drop-off times make everything much less stressful for me. Highly recommend!”

I work from home 3/5 days per week in Kenmore/Metcalfe/Russell/Greely area, and would be happy to take my lunch breaks to go on walks with your fur babies, or to do some check-ins! I am also open most weekends. Ensuring your fur baby feels safe, secure, and comfortable is my top priority! Sometimes new faces can be scary, but I ensure I approach new fur babies with love and care. Safety is also something that I consider to be top priority, which includes the safety of your pet and your home.

About: I had the absolute honour to be a dog Mom for 15 years. My beautiful Benjamin earned his angel wings in September 2023 but I still remember how hard it was to find a loving & attentive dog sitter who had senior dog experience, and it was through Rover that I met some really amazing dog-sitters and I'm forever grateful they were part of Benji's journey. Benji had diabetes for years so I have extensive experience administering needles and oral medication. Benji was also a fussy eater so I’m also used to making meals tasty and the environment super relaxing to ensure your baby is as happy as they can be while you’re away. The primary reason for having a higher-than-average rate is because I promise to provide exceptional, safe, and attentive care to your precious baby. I’m also open to giving very frequent updates and photos to make your experience away from your baby as enjoyable as possible. I’m very mindful of safety rules and making sure you’re little (or big!) one is safe and cared for 24/7. I love dogs so much and I miss their beautiful love and light, and while I’m not ready to have another one of my own yet, I look forward to caring for your dog as I would my own. I love giving lots of cuddles, belly rubs and walks and I aim to make every dog feel super loved and adored. Right now I’m currently working in Ottawa for the federal government from Monday to Thursday. I work from home on Fridays, and I am available all weekend and would dedicate every hour to looking after your fur baby. I’m currently in transition to retirement, so I will be available for full-time sitting as of January 1, 2027. For boarding, I am comfortable spending all of my free time outside of work with your baby. I don’t have any obligations that would take me away from focusing on your baby’s care. I also live in a very quiet neighborhood, so it would be a peaceful and enjoyable experience for your little one. I look forward to meeting you and your precious baby! 🐶 For now, I work from home 1 day a week (Fri) and have to be in the office in Ottawa 4 days a week (Mon-Thurs). I would be able to be home with your baby (Fri, Sat, Sun) but if you’re going on vacation and request more than those 3 days I’m more than happy to do 7 days a week, as long as you’re ok with them being alone on the 4 days I’m in the office (from 7am to 3pm). As of January 1, 2027, I will be fully retired and available 24/7. I have a fully fenced yard and live on a corner lot so there is lots to see and sniff even if just running around my yard, but I am happy to go on lots of leashed walks as well. I’m pretty good at interpreting the signs for potty time, but I love learning as much as I can from you about what your baby’s habits, needs and preferences are. Being a devoted dog Mom for 15 years, I was always extremely careful about making sure my Benji was safe and happy, and I did many things to avoid potential situations, such as crossing the street on walks if another dog looked aggressive, making sure I had eyes on him at all times and knowing what he was doing, even when sniffing the ground, making sure nothing was on the ground that could be hazardous. Nothing was more important to me than protecting my Benji and also making him feel super loved and relaxed. Trust is so important when choosing a dog-sitter. I’ve had a few negative experiences when I needed one in the past, so I know how awful it can be to search and have to settle for mediocre care when in a pinch, so it’s important to me to offer the utmost in care for your baby and for you to be assured that they are in good hands. I’ve had very positive experiences using Rover in the past as a dog owner & I’m excited to now be able to give positive experiences to other pet parents as a dog-sitter. I’m more than happy to abide by any and all requests or preferences that you have when it comes to your baby and I’d love to know their likes and dislikes and whatever else will make their stay with me the best time ever!
“Kayla is wonderful with our 7 month Rottweiler. She was proactive about teaching street manners without us asking and our puppy always came home happy and fulfilled. Very good communication and reliable. We can tell she really cares and is educated on dogs.”
About: I have over a year and a half of hands-on experience working at a doggy daycare, and I absolutely loved every minute of it! My role involved supervising dogs throughout the day, making sure they stayed safe, happy, and active. I spent lots of time playing with them, encouraging exercise, and getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I also provided dog walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care for clients, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs both at home and in new environments. On top of my professional experience, I’ve grown up with large dogs my entire life, so I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I genuinely love spending time with animals and treat every dog as if they were my own. I recently moved to the area for college, so my schedule is completely open until September. That means I have lots of flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and overnight stays. I’m happy to work around your schedule and do my best to accommodate last-minute bookings whenever I can! Since I live in an apartment, I currently provide care in my clients’ homes. I always try to stick to your dog’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’m happy to take dogs on long walks, play with them outside in a fenced yard or indoors, and make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. I’m also comfortable with dogs who like to cuddle or sleep with someone at night if that’s what they’re used to. I’ll make sure your dog has fresh water, is fed according to your instructions, gets lots of potty breaks, and receives plenty of love and companionship. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for until you return.

About: Experienced in Veterinary Medicine for 8 years. I've been working with dogs my whole life. Dog walking since 11 years old. Working along professional dog trainers in boarding facilities was a huge plus to help me guild dogs safely around our neighborhoods and parks. I have experience grooming (please contact if you wish to book your dog a groom while they are with me) as well as emergency veterinary care for the past 7 years. My job working in the veterinary hospital is a blessing to be surrounded by animals every second of every day. I am looking to fit some walking into my lunch breaks or night walks in the Ottawa/Gatineau areas. I'm free all day from Friday-Sunday for Pet sitting or dog walks any time of the day. Caring for animals on a daily basis keep me alert and on my toes on what pets are doing all the time. I keep a close eye and make sure they are well and happy.
About: I have cared for my family’s dogs for periods ranging from a few days to several months, and I have regularly lived with dogs for long periods of time. Through this experience, I understand that caring for animals requires time, patience, responsibility, and dedication. I truly enjoy helping animals feel safe, calm, and comfortable, and I always try to create a caring environment where they can feel relaxed and secure. I would plan my daily routine to make sure your dog is included throughout the day, with dedicated time for rest, feeding, playtime, and exercise. Your dog would not only be cared for by one person, but welcomed as part of a family environment. I genuinely enjoy the company of animals and feel comfortable understanding their behaviors, needs, and personalities, which helps me provide attentive and caring support. I live in an apartment with balcony, available for pets to move around comfortably. Even large dogs can move freely, and my home is free of fragile objects, so your dog will not feel restricted or stressed while staying with me. I also live near parks and pet-friendly walking areas, which makes it easy to provide regular outdoor exercise and enjoyable walks. I understand the needs and behaviors of animals, and I would adapt my daily routine to the schedule and specific needs of your pet. I am very protective of animals, so your dog would always be safe and carefully supervised with me, especially in open or public spaces. I believe in building trust and discipline through patience, consistency, and positive interaction rather than using force. In general, I connect well with animals and enjoy giving them a sense of safety, comfort, and confidence so they can feel protected and truly enjoy their time with me.
About: I’ve been watching dogs for 7 years now. I love all types of dogs. But the first dog I ever got close to was a pitbull. He was the first over night dog sit/house sit. I ever did, the couple would travel often due to work. So I would dog sit about 2/3 times a week. I did that for about two years and gained a lot of experience with dogs due to that job. I also find dog walking a great way to stay healthy and active with out it feeling like a work out. I’ve enjoyed dogging sitting ever since I started and don’t plan to stop. So for now that I can’t get a dog of my own. I’ll just watch yours ! Just send me a message and ill send you my number so we can set up a meeting. Price is negotiable. I’m currently a full time student online so I’m looking to make cash while staying active and happy and what a better way than to pet sit. I’ve loved animal since I was a little girl so being around them always brings me joy and as you’ll see they take a liking to me as well. Even the pups you think won’t, always end up loving me as well. I live in a very spacious one bedroom apartment with a balcony alone so they always feel free and nice fresh air. There is a courtyard in my building that is dog friendly and three dog parks near my building as well. So they will always have room to run and be themselves. I am a full time online student so I would be spending my whole day with your pups. They would always be in great care with love and attention. I have a nice courtyard in my building that’s pet friendly and they can play and I also have three dog parks in my area. Where they can run around and meet new pups if allowed I am currently an full time online student so I would be with your pup the whole day. If you’d like to hear my specific daily routine let me know 😊 I usually stick to the routine a parent gives me so they can feel as comfortable as possible while staying with me or if I’m staying in their home.

“We had an excellent experience with Selina and Pascal! They were very communicative, easy-going, and friendly. We got updates several times a day and felt confident our dog was receiving amazing care. Our dog took to them very quickly - he’s normally unsure around men, but he even warmed up to Pascal amazingly quickly. We will definitely book with them again in the future.”
“Stephanie took wonderful care of my dog, Kobe, while we were away for three days. She kept us updated with photos throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind and made it clear he was happy and well cared for. It was such a relief knowing he was in good hands while we were on vacation. I would absolutely recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“My dogs, Moose and Chester, had an amazing stay at the farm! Ashley was incredibly kind and kept me updated throughout their time with her, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear how much she truly loves and understands animals. She even administered Chester’s medication with no issues. The boys were happy, comfortable, and so well cared for. I couldn’t ask for a better place for them! I highly recommend!”

“Coralie and Kevin took marvellous care of our huskies!! It was such a relief being able to leave town while knowing our dogs were in such a great environment. First of all, their home is lovely and has a perfect yard where dogs can burn their energy. Second, they are so kind, welcoming and have a very gentle dog who got along great with my busy huskies. I was nervous leaving my dogs in a new place; however, they provided updates and kept an open line of communication with very prompt replies; which really brought peace of mind while being away. I would highly recommend booking with them. It was our first time, and certainly not our last! :)”
“Bridget took my 2 boys on a last minute request. They came home so happy & tired. She was very accommodating & understanding when I had to extend their stay. Her communication was wonderful and kept me in the loop on how they were doing. I won’t use anyone else to watch my boys now. Could not recommend more. Thank you Bridget!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have experience with a wide range of breeds, sizes and personalities, from Yorkies to German Shepherds. My mom also bred a few litters when I was in my 20s, so I’ve spent lots of time around puppies as well. I currently have a dog of my own and am comfortable following whatever routine and care instructions you have in place. I’m home throughout the day and have a pretty flexible schedule, so I’m available for pet care during the week and on weekends. I can usually work around different schedules and routines depending on what you need. I have a fully fenced yard with plenty of space for dogs to get outside and play. I’m happy to follow whatever routine you already have in place, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care and any specific instructions. I understand that every pet is different and will follow what works best for yours.
