“Jenn and Brian were outstanding hosts for Cooper. Not only were they flexible with our times and willing to work with us, but they clearly understand dogs, owning their own dogs and having fostered dogs in the past. Jenn kept me posted on his activities and energy level, and clearly she wore him out as he's been sleeping since the moment we put him in the car 4.5 hours ago. Playing in their backyard and with their pups certainly wore our energetic 2 year old out. We highly recommend Jenn and Brian for their care with your dog.”
“Absolutely fantastic with my 14 year old pup. She communicated promptly and well. Very pleased with how my pup was cared for and returned home!”
“our Boxer Rudy had just had a procedure and needed special care and is still being house trained. Mindy was awesome. She sent us pics, video and updates of him as well as gave him his medication. She gave us tips for socializing him and was very patient with him. I can tell he had an amazing time and will definitely let Rudy board with her again.”
“Charlette was wonderful!!! Nikey does well with new people, but can get nervous in new environments. Charlette treated him with kindness and patience. She was able and willing to work with his normal routine and sent plenty of updates and pictures, which helped me feel at ease. Nikey warmed up to her, her home, and her family quickly. We are so happy to have connected with Charlette and will absolutely request services again!!!”
“HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! WILL DEFINITELY BE A REPEAT CUSTOMER! We couldn’t have been more appreciative with the care Erika provided taking care of our young puppy for the 5 days we were away. Erika’s pup Huxley was the perfect play mate for our pup to feel right at home and to help burn off energy. Erika was very easy to communicate with and sent us updates multiple times a day with how our pup was doing.”
“Bev watched my chihuahua for the first time. She came home happy and playful. I could tell she had a wonderful time. Also Bev’s comment was she sure loves her tummy rubbed which I knew meant if all she wanted was Bev to rub her belly she really liked her and trusted her. I will definitely be using Bev again soon.”
“Kiara & Yves, did such an amazing job with my little kitty. She was so well cared for and the sitter was super responsive sending many nice updates and photos of Lottie. I would recommend their services to anyone who was looking for a sitter!”
“Monica is the best. The dogs love her and we will trust her with our puppers for any time we need a pet sitter. She was extremely communicative- texts, videos, pictures- and we couldn't have asked for better.”
“Anthony did a great job taking care of my pup. She can be shy and fearful in new situations and Anthony did a great job to keep her calm and comfortable. She enjoyed playing with his dogs, Yoki and Canelo. I enjoyed receiving updates and pictures of my pup while I was away which helped me feel at ease. Anthony is calm, reliable and welcoming. I plan to use his services again when I need them.”
“Michelle was an amazing with our shy foster dog Roxy! She was super patient, kind, and created a really loving and safe space for her to be comfortable with her. She has excellent communication with us so we were updated the whole weekend. Cannot recommend more!”
“Archer was quite at ease with Valerie from the start. I requested a meet & greet before leaving my little guy, and was happy that Valerie met us both. I’ll be booking again”
“I’m so grateful she accepted my dog last minute on the same day. She took amazing care of him and treated him like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving, reliable hands. We’ll be back!! Highly recommend!”
“Denae and Mark were wonderful hosts for our dog, Cooper. Denae was a great communicator and provided us photos and messages to let us know how Cooper was doing during his brief weekend stay. We will be using them again!”
“Jolene and her family were great with Bailey. We had regular communication with pictures and it really seemed like Bailey was part of their family while there. We will definitely reach out to Jolene again :)”
“Couldn’t be more grateful for the care Darien and her family has given to our dog. From the moment we left, we felt reassured knowing he was safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. It was obvious through the updates and photos that he was happy, relaxed, and getting lots of attention and affection. The regular photo updates truly helped put us at ease and made being away from him so much easier. We really appreciated the kindness, communication, and level of care throughout the stay. We were so pleased with the experience that we’ve already rebooked for next month. Highly recommended!”
“Our dog always has a great time with Dana and Jeremy. We really appreciated the pictures and updates throughout the weekend. Dana and Jeremy take great care of our dog whenever we travel and we look forward to using them again!”
“great communication and felt very confident leaving my dog with amanda! will definitely ask to re-book next time i go out of town. thanks amanda!!”
“I was so nervous, using someone other than our "regular sitter" for the first time. But Erica quickly exceeded all expectations. She sent an update with multiple pictures each day, was incredibly attentive to our senior dog's medical routine, and loved on our boys as if they were a part of her own pack. I'm so grateful to have found her and have already rebooted with her for our next vacation. Erica, you're the best! Thank you for making sure my dogmom heart was at ease while hubby & I were away from our babies.”
“Alena was very patient with our dog Rayo since he had separation anxiety the first night of his stay. She sent pictures and videos and responded quickly to my texts. He settled in and I felt secure knowing that he was well cared for.”

About: I have experience caring for cats of all ages and personalities through both personal pet ownership and clinical animal handling experience. I’m comfortable working with shy cats, energetic kittens, and cats who may require extra patience, routine, or individualized care. My experience includes: -Feeding and fresh water care -Litter box maintenance and deep cleaning -Medication administration -Bottle feeding kittens -Transitioning kittens to solid food -Basic nail trimming -Brushing and coat care -Monitoring behaviour, appetite, and comfort One thing that sets me apart is my attention to cleanliness and routine. I understand how important a clean, sanitary environment is for you and your cats, and I take litter care seriously. I also understand that many cats are happiest staying in their familiar home environment while their owners are away. My goal is to provide calm, reliable care that minimizes stress and helps maintain your cat’s normal routine as closely as possible. I approach every cat with patience, attentiveness, and respect for their individual personality and comfort level.
About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and know how much they brighten a day. Whether it’s walks, play, or just company, I make sure they’re cared for and happy. Being a student gives me the flexibility to fit into your pup’s routine and keep things easy for both of you. As a student, I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time for dog walks and drop-in visits. I’m free all day on Tuesdays and Fridays, most of Wednesday during the day, and weekends too. That makes it easy for me to fit in regular walks or quick check-ins when you need them. I take walks seriously and always put safety first, whether that means sticking to familiar routes, keeping a close eye on traffic, or matching your dog’s pace and energy. I’ll follow any instructions you give so you know your pup is in good hands.
“Tata is amazing. My kitty was somewhat feral when I got her years ago. Doesn't trust anyone but myself and my husband. She came and GREETED Tata when she arrived. Every day. I highly recommend her.”
“Holly did such an amazing job. I tell people my cat has separation anxiety but really it’s me. I’m usually afraid to leave him alone but Holly hung out with him the whole time it was so nice. We can tell he was so taken care of and loved it was great. I wasn’t nervous at all to leave him with Holly! We will definitely have her look after bubble every time! Thanks Holly :)”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for about 10 years from having 2 cats at home and one dog, I am all taking care of a few dogs in Canada where I study and take them for walks and house sit when the owners are out of town. it helps me take a break from doing whatever to care for the pet and walk it and spend time with an animal for a few hours in a day to get my mindset different. On a daily basis I wake up and feed the dog and then take him/ her for a walk and play with the pet for a while and then take him/ her for an other walk and then at night I feed him/ her again and take him for an other walk and then one more before bed so I’m taking the pet for a walk around 4-5 times a day depends.

“Rudy had a wonderful time with Jaddua. He reassured us with many updates, photos, and was a very caring dog sitter. He loved giving Rudy all the attention and love he needed. We will definitely book again in the upcoming future. Thank you!”
“Jenn and Brian were outstanding. I gave them a long list of details about my puppy and they were able to accommodate everything. I was given a bunch of pictures throughout the day of him having a great time. Burned all his energy and had a bunch of fun. Didn’t want to leave as we were pulling away! Would highly recommend.”
“Priya and her family were so good to Koda. He loved spending time with them! She gave us updates throughout the day- great communication overall. I’d definitely have her watch Koda again. He was so happy with her. :)”
“Very nice people and effective communication for any issues or questions about my dog, Pluto Gave me updates during his stay with them! I also would like to thank them for working with me around my late arrival for pickup and thank them for taking him in, even if it was a last minute request.”
About: I have raised two dogs (one large bread and one small bread) both from puppy to 16 & 17yrs old. I have had three cats (one still residing with me). Currently I dog sit two fur babies since 2020. In a week I am losing one of my buddies due to his parents relocating. I am already missing him and am hoping to make some new walking and cuddling partners. I work part time on weekends but can sit with advanced notice. Monday til Wednesday I am available for anytime on shorter notice. When I have your furry sweetheart I do not leave them by themselves at all,so I like to schedule when there is nothing to conflict with the time I have them. When in my house they have no restrictions from me, only what the parent wants. I have an outside bathroom area on leash for quick bathroom trips. I like to go for at least one or two long walks per day, weather permitting and your dogs abilities. I live in a walkable neighborhood and close to parks. When at your house I will follow whatever routine your partner is used to.
“Sasha is very personable, great energy...and Homey seemed to enjoy his stay with her on Mother's day...nice to be away and know he was well cared for...lots of pics and updates....highly recommend.”
“Valerie was fantastic! We contacted her on short notice for day care for our pups while we were in town for the eclipse! She instantly made my pups feel welcome and comfortable in her home and took great care of them while we were out for a day of festivities. She sent lots of pictures, was extremely communicative, and was very accommodating/flexible with modifying drop off and pick up times at the last minute!”
“Noelle watched our new puppy, Brew, during the day while my husband and I had to work. She did a fantastic job helping Brew learn about potty training and lessening her separation anxiety. Noelle is knowledgeable and kind and she provided photos and updates throughout the day. She clearly cares about animals and is a professional”
“Charlette accommodated our day care request last minute and took such great care of our dog! She was kind when we needed flexibility with drop off. She sent adorable pictures through the day, and our dog was so happy and tired on pick up. Highly recommend!”
“Mindy provided day care for my aunt's dog, Sassy, while we visited Niagara Falls from Arkansas. Sassy had never been under someone else's care and my aunt was nervous about leaving her with a "stranger". But Mindy was wonderful and allowed us to come for a 'meet and greet' when we arrived in town the day before our booking. My aunt was still nervous about leaving her the next day because Sassy, being a Maltipoo, has separation anxiety. But Mindy knew taking Sassy for a walk right after we left would be a good distraction. She was also wonderful about sending pictures and videos especially that first day and that made us feel better about leaving her. By the second day Sassy was comfortable going straight to Mindy when we arrived. Also, she was very flexible regarding drop off and pick up times.”
“Alexis is a wonderful dog sitter. She is responsive and understanding of my dogs individual needs. He's an older boy and appreciates a good lap or couch for requent relaxation and Alexis is willing to provide that. This was our second time at doggy day care with Alexis and he rushed out of the car to visit her again!”
“Lauren connected very well with my fur girl from the very beginning. Looking at the pictures that she share I could definitely see that being outside on the balcony with Lauren was one of her favorite times of her stay....as she took in the sights and sounds of the neighborhood along with catching a few rays!”
“Toktam was a loving, sensitive angel when it came to the way she took care of our little Puerto Rican rescue pup Maisie. Maisie is quite wary of new people, but to my delight and surprise, the second day we dropped her off Maisie smiled a doggie smile usually reserved for only three family members (me, my daughter and my husband) and happily rushed to Toktam's front yard gate to see her! Wow! That was a first. I have had really good experiences with Rover but this one was the absolute best because even though I am a worry wart and very protective of our sensitive, formerly traumatized little street dog Maisie, once I met Toktam, I was immediately comfortable, confident and relieved that she would be in the best of hands for her four days of daycare. Thank you Toktam!”
“He’s a great person and a huge animal lover! Apollo loves him and loves playing with the other dogs. I highly recommend Jose for all your pet sitting needs, he’s the best!”
“Laura was amazing with my off the wall super energetic 3 month old springer spaniel puppy!! She is a super experienced trainer and was amazing at providing a balance between structure/close monitoring for safety and a lot of fun play time for my girl. She sent a lot of updates and advice that was very helpful for our training as well! Laura went above and beyond and even gave me tons of training tips outside of the visit because my pup is very difficult and has been struggling with separation anxiety. Best value out of a Rover stay I’ve ever gotten!”

“I feel like Courtney isn't just the best dog sitter, she's one of the best humans. She was so welcoming and understanding of my not completely house trained pup, and she's almost like a trainer as well as sitter. She's worked on crate training and commands with my pup, even letting me borrow things to help at home. Five other sitters denied my request to watch a puppy, but Courtney is the ultimate dog lover, and honestly has more patience than anyone I've ever met. My only concern is that my pup loves being at her house maybe more than mine, since Courtney's dogs are her new best friends! I can't recommend her highly enough, except I'll be sad if she ever ends up booked when I need her. I couldn't imagine using anyone else.”

About: I’ve always loved dogs and treat every pup like family, providing safe, reliable care, fun walks, and lots of love while you’re away. I have a 1.5 year old mini goldendoodle who loves new friends and is friendly with other socialized dogs 🐾 I work from home, so your dog will have plenty of company and attention throughout the day. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and can provide morning, midday, and evening walks, weather permitting, while maintaining your dogs usual routine as closely as possible. Your dog will be welcomed into my home like family, with plenty of love, attention, playtime, and a comfortable place to relax. I’ll follow their usual routine; provide regular potty breaks, walks, meals, fresh water, and lots of cuddles and companionship. I only host one family’s dog at a time, alongside my friendly mini goldendoodle, Cooper, to ensure every pup receives plenty of love, attention, playtime, and personalized care in a calm and safe environment.
About: If you’re in need of top-notch care for your beloved pets, you’ve come to the right place. I’m passionate about all animals and cherish the moments I’m able to spend with them. I’ve had pets my whole life and love taking care of them, we had a potbelly pig growing up and I had a Chihuahua for 13 years and now have Coco the Cockapoo. You can rely on me for loving and caring for your pet. I would love to meet you and your pets before booking so that you you have the opportunity to get to know me and I become acquainted with your pet. My most important concern is that your pets feel safe and cared for and the parents truly feel that I’m dependable, reliable and a honest human being. Rest assured I prioritize the well being and happiness of your pets above all else. I’m on ODSP and not working other than dog sitting or cat sitting. I’m available any time that you need me to look after your pets I have a fully fenced school right near me I can take them or if it’s in your home I will take them on walks or to the dog park if you want.
About: First of all - I empathize with your tough decision; leaving your fur baby in the hands of another is always a stressful experience. I want to make sure this is a pawsitive experience for you - to answer any questions, send regular updates and photos of your fur baby being spoiled, feeling safe and comfortable in your absence - which would be stressful for them as well. I will not derail your training or nutrition routines as I know it takes a lot of work and dedication to raise a healthy, happy pet. I work full time M to F, 8 to 3. If by chance your fur baby needed to spend any weekdays with me, I’m happy to crate or provide a space free of dangers - garbages up, stairs downstairs gated off and peaceful music in the background. I can also ask my folks (retired) to stop by for a pet and a pee. Mainly - I am looking to sit during weekends (when I am fully off) and holidays (I get all school holidays off) - where it will be me and your fur baby from morning till night! Also - if your pet is more comfortable at his/her own home, I don’t mind having the discussion of me staying over with you. I think it would be really beautiful to get to know your pet like an auntie so that you all can rely on a familiar face as you travel and your pets grow older! I live on an acre of land, with a creek in my backyard. I do not live on a busy street, however, I do not have a fenced in property. I would never let your dog or cat outside to roam without myself at the end of their leash. I will gladly exercise your fur baby with toys, lick pads and long-tether leash walks, in the backyard, on the trails (depending on heartworm/tick medications up to date), but I would never let them out of my sight (I wouldn’t even be able to do that with my own fur baby as I don’t want them to get into anything and frankly I don’t trust people out there!!)
About: I grew up with a golden doodle my whole life and took care of her. Majority of my family and friends have dogs so I am very used to being around them and taking care of dogs. I have experience walking various dogs, checking in on them, feeding, and hanging out with them! My availability is very open right now and I should be able to commit to anytime offered. Feel free to reach out any day and anytime of the week If I am coming to your house I will ensure to keep your fur baby safe by putting them on a leash when going outside unless there is a enclosed space with a fence. If they are coming to my house I will do the same thing to ensure their safety.
About: I’ve had animals my whole life, as for right now I am travelling on and off and therefore cannot have my own furry friend. But in the meantime would love to go on walks and take care of yours! I have plenty of availability when I’m not travelling! When I’m not travelling or volunteering to help youth or other animal programs, I am doing this! When watching the pets taking them out, playing with them, allowing them to eat on time is very important. A healthy balance of everything is what they need!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was little, giving me years of hands-on experience with all kinds of pups. I’m certified in pet CPR and first aid, and I’ve cared for both energetic puppies and gentle senior dogs. Your pet will always be treated with patience, safety, and love. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, visits, and quality time with your pet. I’m able to schedule morning, afternoon, or early evening appointments, and I make sure each pet gets the attention they need without feeling rushed. Whether it’s puppy playtime, a calm stroll with a senior dog, or regular check-ins, I can easily adjust my schedule to fit their routine and yours. When I’m pet sitting, I follow your dog’s routine as closely as possible, feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I keep their environment calm and familiar, give them lots of attention, and make sure they always feel safe. I also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your pup is doing. I provide safe, structured walks tailored to your dog’s energy level and needs. Whether they need a slow stroll, a quick potty break, or a longer, more active walk.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for about 10 years from having 2 cats at home and one dog, I am all taking care of a few dogs in Canada where I study and take them for walks and house sit when the owners are out of town. it helps me take a break from doing whatever to care for the pet and walk it and spend time with an animal for a few hours in a day to get my mindset different. On a daily basis I wake up and feed the dog and then take him/ her for a walk and play with the pet for a while and then take him/ her for an other walk and then at night I feed him/ her again and take him for an other walk and then one more before bed so I’m taking the pet for a walk around 4-5 times a day depends.
“Eileen and Our golden became instant friends. It’s so evident that Eileen is a true pet lover. She’s kind, gentle and enjoys what she does. We were so impressed we’ve already booked her services for an upcoming dog sit.”
About: I come from Ecuador where having a dog as part of the family is very common - so as a dog-lover here in Port Colborne, I am happy to provide the wise loving care you want for your pup. I have a sweet female 2-year-old golden doodle who is totally part of my family. I’d welcome your dog, too - whether it’s for a walk, a day-long play date, or a sleep over. When caring for pets, I feed them, give them fresh water, walk or play with them, and clean up after them. I make sure they're comfortable and happy.
About: I grew up with two dogs when I was growing up and it helped to teach me with maintaining their routines, trying to reinforce positive behaviors, taking care of their medical needs and administering basic medications, and recognizing signs of stress or discomfort early. I treat each pet like they are my own, making sure they get plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and affection, along with updates so you always feel confident they’re in good hands. I strive to create a calm, consistent environment so dogs can thrive even while their owners are away. I'm currently working retail part time so I am flexible during the week and weekends. I usually have Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays off. Can do weekends per request I can take care of your furbabies however you need if they require certain medications, feeding schedules, walking or litter cleaning schedules I am flexible to work around you and their needs.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for the past five years through dog sitting for family and friends, as well as regularly walking and caring for my own dogs. I have experience with feeding, walks, playing, basic care, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and am excited to build more experience and meet new furry friends caring for dogs through Rover. I currently work full-time, and my availability changes throughout the year as I balance school. Whenever I have free time, I’d love to spend it caring for your pet! I’ll always keep my calendar up to date and communicate clearly so you know exactly when I’m available. I always follow your pet’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable and at ease while you’re away. Whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, litter box care, or lots of cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. I’ll also keep you updated with any questions I may have, messages and photos so you know your pet is happy and in good hands.

“Jenn and Brian were outstanding hosts for Cooper. Not only were they flexible with our times and willing to work with us, but they clearly understand dogs, owning their own dogs and having fostered dogs in the past. Jenn kept me posted on his activities and energy level, and clearly she wore him out as he's been sleeping since the moment we put him in the car 4.5 hours ago. Playing in their backyard and with their pups certainly wore our energetic 2 year old out. We highly recommend Jenn and Brian for their care with your dog.”
“our Boxer Rudy had just had a procedure and needed special care and is still being house trained. Mindy was awesome. She sent us pics, video and updates of him as well as gave him his medication. She gave us tips for socializing him and was very patient with him. I can tell he had an amazing time and will definitely let Rudy board with her again.”
“Charlette was wonderful!!! Nikey does well with new people, but can get nervous in new environments. Charlette treated him with kindness and patience. She was able and willing to work with his normal routine and sent plenty of updates and pictures, which helped me feel at ease. Nikey warmed up to her, her home, and her family quickly. We are so happy to have connected with Charlette and will absolutely request services again!!!”
“Monica is the best. The dogs love her and we will trust her with our puppers for any time we need a pet sitter. She was extremely communicative- texts, videos, pictures- and we couldn't have asked for better.”
“Anthony did a great job taking care of my pup. She can be shy and fearful in new situations and Anthony did a great job to keep her calm and comfortable. She enjoyed playing with his dogs, Yoki and Canelo. I enjoyed receiving updates and pictures of my pup while I was away which helped me feel at ease. Anthony is calm, reliable and welcoming. I plan to use his services again when I need them.”
“Michelle was an amazing with our shy foster dog Roxy! She was super patient, kind, and created a really loving and safe space for her to be comfortable with her. She has excellent communication with us so we were updated the whole weekend. Cannot recommend more!”
“Archer was quite at ease with Valerie from the start. I requested a meet & greet before leaving my little guy, and was happy that Valerie met us both. I’ll be booking again”
“I’m so grateful she accepted my dog last minute on the same day. She took amazing care of him and treated him like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving, reliable hands. We’ll be back!! Highly recommend!”
“Denae and Mark were wonderful hosts for our dog, Cooper. Denae was a great communicator and provided us photos and messages to let us know how Cooper was doing during his brief weekend stay. We will be using them again!”
“Couldn’t be more grateful for the care Darien and her family has given to our dog. From the moment we left, we felt reassured knowing he was safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. It was obvious through the updates and photos that he was happy, relaxed, and getting lots of attention and affection. The regular photo updates truly helped put us at ease and made being away from him so much easier. We really appreciated the kindness, communication, and level of care throughout the stay. We were so pleased with the experience that we’ve already rebooked for next month. Highly recommended!”
“Our dog always has a great time with Dana and Jeremy. We really appreciated the pictures and updates throughout the weekend. Dana and Jeremy take great care of our dog whenever we travel and we look forward to using them again!”
“great communication and felt very confident leaving my dog with amanda! will definitely ask to re-book next time i go out of town. thanks amanda!!”
“Alena was very patient with our dog Rayo since he had separation anxiety the first night of his stay. She sent pictures and videos and responded quickly to my texts. He settled in and I felt secure knowing that he was well cared for.”
“Annalise was wonderful. Our dog only stayed one night but I would definitely have her watch our dog again. She is very caring and has a lot of experience with dogs.”
“Took excellent care of our dog. Was very accommodating with the time. Great outdoor space and very friendly well behaved dog also there. Would definitely recommend and use again!”
“I had to make alternative plans for boarding my dog the week before Christmas. I was in a bad spot and wanted the best care for Trouble. Samantha was extremely accommodating. Since I was nervous leaving my dog she provided updates and pictures through Troubles stay for me which was a gigantic relief. I also had to change my return plans to significantly earlier because of weather and again she accommodated the last minute request. I'm very happy and Trouble had a fantastic time. If I need to board Trouble again I will definately reach out to board with Samantha and her family.”
“My dog Jordan was well taken care of. I highly recommend Raisa for dog boarding. She let me know how my pup was doing and sent pictures. She was very kind and I am grateful to have found her. Would definitely go through her again. 10/5 stars!”
