“Stefanie took such good care of my cat Lucy while I was away for 11 days. It was my first time leaving her and Stefanie was always very responsive to my messages and helped relieve my worry and guilt! She sent thorough reports and great photos and kept everything very clean and tidy. Lucy was very comfortable with Stefanie as soon as they met at the meet and great. I will definitely be booking Stefanie again!”

“My Bengal is very particular and not an average cat. I had to leave him for 4 days and I know he requires more than just drop in visits. I spent a lot of time searching on Rover and when I read Felipé's profile I knew that I had found the right fit. Even with that Felipé exceeded our expectations. I hired him for 4 overnights, and it was so reassuring to receive regular updates and photos of their time together. It's clear that this is not just a job for him, but rather a true passion. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pet like a special individual and provide personalized care, you cannot go wrong with this guy. Absolutely recommend 👌”
“From the very first moment to the last, Lidiya was incredibly sweet, kind, and thoughtful. Communication was always easy and reassuring—she was responsive, dependable, and attentive in every way. When I asked for extra visits at the very last minute, she responded immediately, which meant so much to me and truly showed how much she cares. Her detailed updates and lovely photos after each visit brought me real comfort while I was away. It was obvious that my cat adored her; he showed so much affection, and that alone spoke volumes. Knowing he was not only well cared for physically but also loved and emotionally supported gave me complete peace of mind. The small gift she left us—a framed photo of my cat—was such a touching and unexpected gesture. I am so grateful for her care and couldn’t recommend her more wholeheartedly!”
“Nicole was an excellent pet sitter and took great care of my cat. She was reliable, attentive, and kept me updated, which gave me real peace of mind. My cat was happy and well cared for when I returned. I would definitely recommend Nicole and would happily book her again.”
“This was my first time using rover and I was nervous about it at first. But my experience with Rachel was phenomenal! Rachel came to my home a few times during our vacation to look after out cat Eevee. Rachel topped up her food, gave her fresh water, cleaned out the litter box, and managed to play and pet with Eevee. Rachel even came over before we left to go over everything and to meet Eevee, which I really appreciate! It was nice to come home to a clean house and a happy cat. I would definitely book with Rachel and will be using her in the future. Thank you Rachel!!”
“Walter housesat and watched our kittens. It was their first time being looked after and Walter was great! We felt confident with him watching our kittens and house while we were gone and would recommend and rebook him. We came home to happy kittens and our house was clean.”
About: I’ve been taking care of cats since I got one when I was 10. I love how cats tend to have such distinct and strong personalities. I take care of my current cat Howard who is a mean cat and I love him for it. I’m happy to try to become friends with cats who are a little standoffish because when they finally trust you it is special. Because of Howard I am used to unique feeding schedules and am in the habit of sitting nearby while they eat just in case. I’m happy to clean litter boxes or even just come by to study so your cat has someone to curl up with. I also am a dog trainer but if you have a cat that likes to go on walks we can make that happen to!
About: I’m a Golden Retriever owner with 4+ years of hands-on experience raising my own dog and caring for anxious, senior, and special-needs pets. I provide calm, reliable in-home care so your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I am naturally very patient, gentle, and attentive. I understand dog behavior well and can read their needs, whether they want to play, rest, or need comfort. I have experience helping shy or anxious dogs feel comfortable and safe with gentle handling and patience. I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free at all times. For me, pet care is not just a responsibility—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to every day. I will always ensure your dog gets the same love, attention, and care that I give to Scotch. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving you complete peace of mind while you’re away. I work weekdays during the day, but I provide reliable morning care, evening care, overnight stays, and full availability on weekends. I’m especially available for overnight house sitting and weekend care. For pet sitting, I make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship outside of my work hours. On weekends, I have more flexibility and can offer extended care and longer walks. Your pet’s routine and comfort are always my priority, and I do my best to follow their usual schedule closely. I specialize in overnight house sitting so pets can stay relaxed in their own familiar environment. I find that caring for pets in their own familiar environment helps them feel more comfortable, relaxed, and stress-free. When I’m in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow your pet’s routine closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or any special care instructions. I ensure your pet receives plenty of attention, companionship, and exercise, while also maintaining a calm and safe environment. I am very respectful of both your home and your pet’s space, and I always prioritize cleanliness, safety, and trust. My goal is to make your pet feel secure and cared for while giving you complete peace of mind.
About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover and have spent years caring for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and fish. Growing up, I often helped friends, family, and neighbors care for their pets through dog walking, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting. I also had my own rabbit, parrot, and fish, which taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and daily care. More recently, I’ve been fostering cats and providing them with a safe, loving home while they wait to be adopted. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and getting to know their unique personalities. My goal is always to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away.
About: I’ve grown up with cats, and have had my cat, Augustine, for 5 years. Augie is my whole world and I treat her like it! Augie was rescued from a difficult situation, and has had some health issues over our time together. From caring for her, I’ve learned how to medicate effectively without causing stress, signs and symptoms to look out for if she isn’t acting like herself and how to act accordingly, and provide her the love and enrichment she deserves.
About: I’m naturally very calm, detail-oriented, and respectful of people’s homes, which makes a big difference for cats. I take the time to keep their routine consistent, their space clean, and their stress low. I actually don’t rush visits—I make sure litter boxes are properly cleaned, food and water are fresh, and your cat gets attention at their own pace. I’m also comfortable helping with medications if needed. Because I run my own cleaning business, you can trust that your home is in responsible hands too.

“Nayeli was amazing with our little fur baby. He had lots of fun and eat well. I will definitely be booking with Nayeli again. Nayeli provided pictures and updates of our little one. She is awesome”
About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 8. Family and friends trust me with their pets. I truly respect all animals in their habitat, they're like people only smarter than we all know. I'm recently retired, and I need something to do. I am available at any time and I love to care for dogs of all breeds. When I walk dogs, I always have extra doggy bags with me. I love having dogs around while watching TV. I play and cuddle with them. Each dog has its own personality. I often try to teach them new things and give them doggy treats, if it's allowed. I don't feed dogs table scraps at any time.
“Sayali, thank you very much for taking such a good care of my little dude. I can tell he really enjoyed the time he spent with you all. He loved playing with your dogs 😍.”
“Diana was very loving with Harley, showing him lots of affection. My senior dog struggles with separation anxiety and she put him at ease. I look forward to Harley staying with Diana again and would recommend her to others looking for care!”
“My first time using Rover and I could not be happier! Smita was very reassuring with video/pic and text updates and my girls were genuinely happy in the videos. We did a day care day as a trial for my upcoming trip and I have to say I feel very at ease leaving my little ladies with Smita and her husband!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Cristina! My puppy, Darcheen, is usually very shy around new people, but she warmed up to Cristina so quickly thanks to all the love and cuddles she received during her stay. Cristina kept us updated throughout the day with sweet pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. At pick-up, she also provided a detailed feedback about how the day went, which we really appreciated. It’s clear she genuinely cares for the dogs she looks after, and Darcheen came home happy and relaxed. We would definitely recommend Cristina and look forward to booking with her again!”
About: I have loved dogs my whole life. I begged my mom for years to get one as a child, and ever since age 10 I have had a beagle almost non-stop. Currently, I have a 2-year old beagle named Floyd whom you can see on Instagram as The_Biking_Beagle. If you live or work in downtown London, it's possible you've seen us biking to the dog park, which we do almost every day. I raised him since 2 months old, so I have experience with puppies as well as senior dogs. My last dog Odie was a rescue from Kentucky, and he was likely about 8-10 years old when I got him. So I love dogs of all ages-and breeds. If you think your dog would like to join us on a bike ride to the dog park, that could be arranged. Either way, I will be happy to spend time with and walk your furry friend! I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to choose my hours. Let me know when you need, and I will make time for you. I have a very friendly 2 year old beagle who gets along with almost any dog and loves to play. I also have a beautiful and very talkative cat, who has her own space if necessary, but also loves to socialize if the dog is friendly to cats. But if not, she does have her own highway of ledges and cat trees and closet space so there is no worry about her safety. I am also happy to care for your cat or dog in your home. I love to play with and spend time with animals, so you can be sure your fur baby is in good hands!
“I was initially very nervous at the thought of leaving Nora with someone while I go to work! Nora and I met Kollin, his girlfriend, and their fur babies for a meet and great, and I was immediately reassured that they would be a great fit for Nora. Nora loves playing with their fur babies and Kollin keeps me updated with videos, photos, and messages throughout the day while she is in their care. I look forward to having them look after Nora I’m the future!”
“Bill was terrific. Our dog was happy and relaxed when we picked him up. Bill was accommodating and attentive, excellent communication throughout. Would recommend Bill. Thanks for taking such great care of our furry family member.”
“I’ve rebooked with Jen multiple times for daycare and overnight stays. I’m someone who’s chronically anxious about leaving my pooch with someone new, but never with her! She’s so good at always sending updates and pictures on how the stay is going. Goose loves going to her place and hanging out with her family or playing with her dog! I wouldn’t ever hesitate to recommend her to anyone seeking a sitter.”
“Rugile and Eima were considerate and attentive care givers. They gave him so much love and attention and I’m so relieved that our pup is in good hands.💕”
“Brooke was so accommodating, and welcoming. I’ve never had anyone other than family watch Ace before but her reviews spoke volumes and I stand with the rest of them. She’s great, looked after my pup. Was so prompt with responses and so helpful. It’s always a relief to know your pup is in safe hands. Thank you Brooke for amazing care and the cutest little pictures. We are so grateful”
“This was my first time leaning my dogs with Rita for the day. She was very caring and patient with them and also sent me their pictures and a video which put me at ease. Thanks again Rita!”
“Brittany was great! Very much appreciated the cute pictures of our dog enjoying the stay and when my dog was excited to see her on her next stay I was sure Mikka enjoyed her time too. My dog is slow to adjust to new people so it was great that Brittany was patient through it used to this behavior.”
About: I have owned and dog-sat, and consider them part of the family. I have always enjoyed being around dogs and the joy they bring to our lives. I am available all day, every day, including statutory holidays and vacations. Making sure there are plenty of potty breaks and playtime. I am flexible with Drop-off and Pick-up times I am home all day long and everyday I have a fenced yard and 1 friendly dog that will keep your best friend company with lots of playtime. I will always be outside with the dogs and sticking to the owner's routine
“Faye was very accommodating. She was able to take in our dog for an early morning drop off. Since we had to leave home to travel out of town for a funeral we felt confident our dog would be taken care of after meeting her. Leaving him was easier knowing she would update us throughout the day and getting picture updates made us feel he was right at home. We were also happy to hear her dog was company to ours while we were away. Faye made sure she knew his rules and routines. We would definitely recommend Faye and leave our dog with her again.”
“Angela is such a great sitter. I left Alex with her more than 12 hours a day without any worry. She replied to my messages within a few minutes and kept me updated with pictures. Thankyou so much for taking such great care of my dog. ❤”

“Stefanie is such a good dog walker and has great attention to detail. She shows up on time, leaves a great summary of the walk and takes great photos of Goose. I will have her as my dog walker ongoing for sure”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I bring to every pet. I cared for my rescue dog through her senior years and was with her right until her last day, which taught me how important compassion, consistency, and gentle care are — especially for older pets or animals with unique needs. I also have experience fostering a large, energetic dog, so I’m comfortable handling high-energy pets that need lots of activity, structure, and engagement. I’ve always lived with both cats and dogs, so caring for animals has been a constant part of my life. I’m a very active person who genuinely enjoys long walks, playtime, and spending time outdoors, and I have flexibility throughout the day to give pets attention, exercise, bathroom breaks, and companionship instead of leaving them alone for long periods. I treat every pet like they’re my own and aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I'm currently pursuing my PhD which leaves my schedule very flexible and open throughout the week. I'm not constrained by regular working hours (i.e. 9-5) and often make my own schedule so my availability is very open! I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment where pets can stick to their normal routines as much as possible. In a client’s home, I make sure pets receive lots of attention, exercise, playtime, bathroom breaks, fresh water, meals on schedule, and any specific care instructions their owner provides. I’m very attentive to pets’ behaviour and comfort levels, and I always try to make them feel secure while their owner is away. Because I’ve cared for both energetic dogs and senior pets, I understand that every animal has different needs. I can provide active walks and play for high-energy dogs, while also being patient and gentle with older pets who may need slower pacing, medication support, or extra comfort and supervision. I also make sure owners feel at ease by being reliable, respectful of their space, and communicative with updates and photos. My goal is always to care for pets the way I would want someone to care for my own animals — with kindness, consistency, and genuine attention.
“Maddy was such a great Dog Walker, our boy Dex loved going for walks with her, and Maddy even stayed and played with him in the backyard to get him some more exercise. Would absolutely recommend!”
About: I have been a huge dog lover since I was young! I have a passion for working with animals and have experience with handling and training leash aggressive, reactive dogs! I have cared for a variety of breeds and sizes and am comfortable with all! Pet care is an important part of my daily and weekly routine. Although my partner and I live in Thamesford, Ontario, I frequently travel to Toronto to babysit our family dog. This often involves planning my week around these visits to ensure I can spend quality time with our family pet. In Thamesford, I also enjoy babysitting and walking other local dogs in my free time. This helps me stay active and engaged with the community. My days often consist of working from home and being able to walk and check in on dogs throughout the day to make sure they are comfortable and happy! Balancing pet care with my other responsibilities and remote work requires good time management, but it's a rewarding part of my life that I truly cherish. If I was going to a clients home I would treat it as I treat my own home, with respect and cleanliness. In my own home my dog was the king of the house lol and I treat him as such. Any pets I encounter and look after will be treated with the utmost respect and care because I love animals and love being around them! I would definitely consider myself an animal whisperer. :)
“Alice needed a male figure since she had one growing up and no longer does. When I come home, Alice is much more calm than she has been in a long time. So glad Walter was able to give her the exercise and play time she needs :) Thank you!”
About: I have lived and worked in a CKC Registered dog kennel growing up, very familiar with taking care of English Bulldogs and Frenchies specifically. I have also been a pet sitter for many family members with all different breeds, friends and coworkers over the years. I have experience with many dog breeds small to large, cats, small-animals and reptiles. I work part-time, I have a very open schedule for walks, drop ins, hangouts, and home pet sitting for how ever many days may be needed in your home! I have a fenced in yard that is easily accessible even for a older dog that may have mobility issues, I am familiar with every dog park in the city, or I can take them on a hike through one of our many parks and trails. Keeping it laid back is also perfect, a roam around the neighborhood where you're located is a great option also!
About: I've enjoyed having pet dogs for over 20 years and really love getting to know their personalities. I want to help you feel confident your pets are receiving the best care and attention while they can't be with you! I currently work Mon - Friday, so am limiting services to weekends and holidays. I won't show availability on the calendar unless I am off and available to spend the necessary time looking after your pet. I have a well cared for home with a fenced yard. We do not have any dogs of our own at this time. Lots of walking trails just outside our door for interesting walks! We are just a few minutes off the 401 at the Elgin Rd exit #203.
About: I have lived with a dog my whole life! For as long as I can remember my family, friends, and people in my community have asked me to take care of their pets and I am always happy to do so, whether they need me just to walk or feed their pet because they are running late or for a longer period of time. I am good with dogs of any age! I am currently a full time student in college, my weekends are always free. I do have class from 9:30-3:30 but I do have two 30 minute breaks throughout the day when I would be able to run back to the house and let the dog out When it comes to caring for a pet, I will do the obvious things like ensuring they are kept out of danger and safe, never outside without a leash unless of course in their own fenced in yard. Of course if the pet owner would like additional and specific precautions taken they can always inform me and I will follow it

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 6 years and currently foster cats through a local shelter when available. I’ve helped care for dogs and cats through walking, feeding, playtime, overnight care, and fostering, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have experience caring for pets with different personalities and needs, including energetic puppies, shy pets, and senior animals. I’m happy to follow any routines, training methods, or medication schedules provided by owners. I currently work part-time in childcare, which gives me flexibility throughout the week for pet care. I have experience balancing responsibilities and maintaining routines, so I understand the importance of consistency for pets. Whether it’s walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or check-ins, I’m committed to giving your pet the attention and care they need. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I occasionally foster cats for a local shelter, although I do not always have a foster animal in my home. If your pet is not comfortable around cats, feel free to ask and I’ll let you know whether I currently have a foster at that time. I have space for a crate if your dog is crate-trained and uses one at home. If your preference is for your dog to remain out of a crate, I’m happy to follow that routine as well. I believe consistency is important, so I do my best to maintain the environment and schedule your pet is used to. I live on a quiet residential street with a park just a short walk away, making it a great area for walks, exercise, and outdoor time. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and will care for your pet with the same attention, patience, and affection that I would give my own.
About: With over 3 years of hands-on pet care experience, I’ve had the pleasure of working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I specialize in creating a calm, safe, and structured environment tailored to each dog’s unique needs. Whether it’s high-energy pups who need plenty of play and stimulation, or senior dogs who require a gentler, more attentive approach, I’m confident in providing the right level of care. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, strong communication with pet parents, and my ability to quickly build trust with animals. I’m experienced in administering medications, maintaining feeding routines, and offering basic training reinforcement. I treat every dog like my own and pride myself on being reliable, respectful, and fully present during every visit or stay. Let’s make your pet’s time away from you feel just like home—safe, happy, and well-cared for! I work from home and my wife is sometimes working from home. So we can take care of the pups together during the week and weekends we both are home and take out dogs for play and activities. I have a fenced yard and my dog loves playing in there. Lots of space to play around. I take them for walks every 2 to 4 hours to get their business done.

“Amanda did such a great job with Brady! He’s usually pretty hesitant with new dog walkers at first, but whatever Amanda did made him feel completely comfortable and at ease right away. She was patient, attentive, and clearly took the time to build trust with him. Not only did she handle him wonderfully, but she also gave him a great walk that left him happy, relaxed, and well-exercised afterward. It’s obvious that Amanda genuinely cares about the dogs she works with and goes above and beyond to make sure they feel safe and loved. Brady absolutely loved his time with her and can’t wait to see Amanda again soon!”
About: I've owned pets my whole life, dogs and cats. I’ve pet-sat for other animal owners multiple times, especially in the past few months, while away or on vacation. I'm very patient with animals, including senior animals, and provide them with love and care while you're away! I'm currently doing an unpaid summer internship at a daycare for school three days a week, so I will have plenty of time to watch your animals! I am especially open and available on weekends, too! I will ensure to stick to your guidelines provided to create a safe environment for the animals. I will also keep a close eye on them and spend lots of time with them!
About: I have several years of experience caring for cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities—everything from playful kittens to older, more reserved senior cats. I understand that every cat has their own unique routine and preferences, and I always take the time to get to know what makes each one feel safe and comfortable. Whether it’s feeding, cleaning litter boxes, or just offering quiet companionship and gentle affection, I make sure every cat I care for gets the love and attention they deserve. I'm also familiar with shy or anxious cats and have a calm, patient approach that helps them feel at ease while their owners are away. Pet care is a BIG part of my routine and forever has been. I am currently working in hospitality and at a reptile zoo. No matter my schedule, I will always prioritize time for making sure each animal feels safe, cared for, and loved. whether its popping by for a walk, quality playtime, snuggles or routine tank cleaning, I will be there. When their feeding times are, exercise scedule anything they are scared of or sensitive to, how often they like to be walked, any special considerations and any medications they need.
