“Despina was great with Boogie and he had fun staying with them! Lots of cuddle and attention time for him, which he loves! Thank you so much for the last minute extension of his stay with you guys too!”
“Hank and Bauer were very well cared for during their stay. Plenty of pictures and updates were provided which gave us peace of mind and you could tell they genuinely cared for our pets. Hank has leg issues and our other dog is hyper, so they put Hank in a wagon while taking Bauer on a longer walk so that he wasn’t left behind 🐾❤️”

Melanie was incredibly attentive, ensuring my puppy was comfortable and happy throughout the stay. She provided regular walks, playtime, and plenty of love, which made me feel completely at ease. I truly appreciated the peace of mind knowing my puppy was being well-cared for. I highly recommend Melanie and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

We would not hesitate to leave Tileh with her again and highly recommend her to other pet owners.”
“We had such an amazing experience with Tsz. She went above and beyond while we were on vacation, consistently sending pictures and videos that gave us so much peace of mind. It really meant a lot to see how happy and well cared for our dog was while we were away. At the end of each day, she also provided detailed updates and notes about feedings, activities, and how everything went, which we truly appreciated. It showed how attentive and organized she is. Our 11-month-old Golden Retriever absolutely loved her, and it was clear she treated him like her own. We felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. 10/10 would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive dog sitter!”
“We cannot speak highly enough of Dommond's exceptional care for our beloved pug. From the moment we met him, it was evident that he possesses a genuine passion for animals and a deep understanding of their needs. Dommond's dedication to providing the highest level of care and attention to our pug was truly remarkable. His regular updates, complete with photos and videos, not only put our minds at ease but also allowed us to feel connected to our furry friend while we were away. His kindness, patience, and attentiveness towards our pug were evident in every interaction. We have no hesitation in recommending Dommond to anyone in need of a trustworthy and loving caregiver for their pets. His outstanding service and genuine love for animals make him an exceptional choice.”

About: Lifelong Animal Lover Offering Personalized Care—Because Your Dog Deserves the Best I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly can’t imagine life without them. My days revolve around my own dogs and their comfort—and your pup will be treated with that same level of love, attention, and care. As a mature, responsible caregiver with excellent communication, I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe, and well cared for. I work from home, so your dog will enjoy constant companionship throughout the day, along with walks tailored to their individual needs. Whether it’s caring for playful puppies or gentle senior dogs, I’m experienced with all stages of life. I live in a house with a yard and two dogs of my own. I only take one dog (or two from same household) at a time so it’s not too much excitement. Or I’ll come to your home as needed!
“Megan and her family are amazing. This is our boys, new “home away from home”. The accommodation are spotless and our pups were treated like part of the family. We continually got updates with photos. We were totally put at ease. This was a great first experience for our dogs and family. Thank you so much.”
“Luisa was amazing, she kept us posted with pictures and updates on how our doodle Levi was doing. Levi was cared for with love and compassion and he loved being with Benji, it kept him occupied during our 2 week vacation. I definitely recommend Luisa to anyone that is looking for care”
“Shirin was a very kind and accommodating host, so much so that seems as though our Zeke was on a vacation of his own! With multiple communications throughout the day, including pictures and videos of Zeke playing around and having the best time, it was clear that we left our puppy in good and capable hands. Will be back for sure :)”
“Extremely responsible and experienced sitter. My dog felt very comfortable with them and their dog. She was taken good care of. They communicated well with me! I recommend them to anyone who needs a trustworthy sitter!”

“Deborah was amazing with Checkers. She kept us updated the whole time and sent the sweetest photos, which honestly made being away so much easier. I’d absolutely book Deborah again and would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone kind and reliable on Rover. Thank you again, Deborah! 🐾”
“Melanie did a great job taking care of my 2 cats. She came and met the boys ahead of time and I felt very comfortable with hiring Melanie. The pictures she sent me of the boys was added comfort. I will definitely hire her again.”
“Lisa was above and beyond boarding our cat! She was genuine, thoughtful, loving and playful with him! She was an excellent communicator sending us videos and photos each day of their activities. We were shocked at how quickly our cat adapted to her home and that’s all because of how much Lisa cares about her animals and the time she spends with them!”
“Sure, here's a review for Amanda: --- Amanda was absolutely fantastic as our house sitter. She took great care of our cat Ellie and was incredibly respectful of our home. Amanda left our place spotless and made sure Ellie was well-cared for during our absence. We had complete peace of mind knowing she was looking after everything. I highly recommend Amanda for anyone in need of a reliable and caring house sitter!”

Our dog absolutely loves him, and we feel completely at ease knowing our furry friend is in great hands. He’s not just a dog walker, but a genuinely classy and caring person. We couldn’t ask for better care for our dog and highly recommend John to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and awesome. Thank you for everything, John!”
About: I went to college for Veterinary Assisting in 2019, and have had various experiences. I've worked in Vet clinics and hospitals and frequently pet sit for friends and family. I have a huge love of animals of every kind! From the furry, to the scaly, and even the feathered! I have experience working with animals from all stages of life, as well as furry friends with specialized diets. Put your faith in me and you won't be disappointed! I am currently working a job that involves me being there 5 days a week: Monday & Friday 2:30-6, and Tuesday, Wednesday Thursday 12:30-6, but are able to make morning visits, evening visits and even overnight if needed. Weekends are completely available to me and can take time off for your furry friends if needed. This is dependent on the species, breed and what their specific needs are. For example, in college, I owned 2 rats who needed consistent enrichment activities, regular baths and grooming, as well as all the love and snuggles they wanted! They both lived 2 very long happy lives up until and even past their life expectancy. I now own a large and thriving aquarium which I love and adore.
“Christina was fantastic. She was friendly, punctual, highly professional, and took perfect care of our cat with daily care visits while we were away. We were unfamiliar with the Rover platform, so we appreciated her assistance with it as well. We will absolutely request her assistance for cat care the next time we are going away. Moreover, since our cat has pretty deep-rooted anxiety about strangers and hides pretty much all the time unfamiliar people are in our house, we hope that she (our cat) will warm up to her (Christina) over the course of future care visits. Not only will that hopefully let Christina get to actually spend time with our cat during care visits, but through familiarity with Christina as our go-to cat sitter, we hope it will make our absences less difficult for our cat. Bottom line, Christina was excellent and we highly recommend her to everyone in the Hamilton area looking for someone to care for their cat while they’re away.”
“Quick to reply. Left lots of photos for us. Came over with a notebook during the meet and greet to keep track of what we requested. Pretty seamless. Thanks Cassandra and Rover.”
“Binny appeared to be well taken care of when I got back home. Lois also did an additional visit on short notice which was very appreciated as it was important for Binny to have her meds on time. Only thing I would change for next time is no photographs as Binny looks scared in all of them; it probably freaked her out somewhat.”
About: As a cat dad to 2 cats myself, I understand how important routine is for cats. I make sure their feeding schedule is consistent, fresh water is always available, and litter boxes are kept clean and comfortable. I also pay attention to subtle behavior changes, since cats often show discomfort or stress in small ways. For social cats, I’m happy to provide playtime and enrichment. For more reserved cats, I respect their space and move at their pace to build trust gently. My goal is to create a calm, safe environment so your cat feels secure and relaxed while you’re away. I also provide updates and photos, so you can feel confident knowing they’re in good hands.
About: I used to volunteer at the OSPCA and worked with the small animals, cats, and dogs there for about 2 years. I also did my co-op for highschool at a doggy daycare for about 7 months. On top of which I’ve been caring for almost 2 or more dogs for most of my life. I have a part time job but I have lots of time to spend with your animals when I’m not working. I typically work 3-4 shifts a week that can range from 6-8 hours. But other than that I love spending time with the animals I look after. I tend to work with dogs in their own home as it is an environment they feel safest in. I provide them engagement by playing with your animal and providing stimulating tasks. I also enjoy a good dog snuggle.

“When I dropped Bolt and Smokey off for daycare at Anna's, they recognized her front door. They patiently waited to go inside and it warmed my heart to see Bolt prancing when he got in. I was greeted by the grandma who said she missed them and a little girl who was saying, "Doggy doggy!". Anna was wonderful welcoming them in the house and sending me pictures throughout the day. At pick up, I knew they had a great time, the tell tale sign is when they don't want to leave. The family said their goodbyes and I'm looking forward to dropping them off for boarding in a couple weeks. Wonderful communication and service from Anna. Thank you so much for accommodating my two old doggies. My mind is so at ease knowing they are well loved at your place. Big thank you to Rosseau for sharing his humans with them. Thank you!”
“Jiayi is super responsible!!! i will 100% see her again🥰🥰🥰 I’m sure my dog have a good time with Jiayi and Sushi😭🥰 i received a lot of photos and video from her, really makes my day🥺”
“Vivian looked after our 10 month old puppy for the day and she was fantastic! It was our first time leaving our puppy with anyone other than family and it was a great experience. She sent us photos and videos throughout the day to show us how much fun our dog was having. Our puppy really enjoyed her stay with Vivian!”
“Roo loved her visit with Michele! Michele was super communicative, flexible and attentive with Roo. Lots of walks, photos and updates throughout the day. We are so happy we found Michele and would recommend her to anyone looking for care for their dog!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and had a family dog growing up, so caring for pets has always come naturally to me. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s going for walks, playing, or just keeping them company. I currently work from home, which allows me to keep your pup company throughout the day while providing flexible potty breaks, walks, and plenty of attention. I care for pets by keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible, including regular walks, potty breaks, feeding schedules, and plenty of attention and playtime. I always prioritize safety by ensuring doors, leashes, and harnesses are secure during walks and outings, and I closely supervise pets at all times.
“This was the first time using Rover. I was a little nervous at first leaving my fur baby with someone I didn't know. Despina and her family are very welcoming and friendly. Despina always kept me in the loop on how Meya was doing by providing lots of photos and updates. Would definitely rebook with Despina and would highly recommend others with her service. Meya had so much fun that when we got home she was happy and exhausted with all the love she received from Despina and her family.”
“Cali enjoys spending the day with Pivonne.We we were very happy that she was available on the day that we needed her. This was our second visit with Pivonne and we would definitely use her services again.”
“Krishnaa and her husband are great! They offered to dog sit our pet right at the last moment when we had to run for a medical emergency. They are kind, experienced and our pet really enjoyed her stay at their place. We are very grateful to both of them. Highly recommend!”
“Shirin looked after my 6m old puppy. It was the first time I was leaving her with anyone. She was wonderful with him and sent me many pictures and videos throughout the day. I could see my puppy was very happy and he had a great time with Shirin and her dog. The whole experience was great and I’ll definitely book with her again.”
“We are so glad to have found Melanie on this app. She is a sweetheart and my anxious doggie is comfortable and calm staying with her. She even accommodated for us last minute and communicated with us regularly during the stay. We‘ve booked with Melanie 2 times so far, and she has been lovely. We will definitely book Milo‘s stays with her in the future!”
About: At this time, I will only be accepting one dog at a time. I do have a resident dog in my home, but she is very low maintenance. That means your dog will get my (almost!) undivided attention. I have lots of experience with taking care of dogs of all backgrounds from fostering and dogsitting, including puppies. I'm very in tune with the needs of dogs. I have taken care of dogs of all sizes, from 10 pounds to 50 pounds. I love sending lots of pictures and videos throughout the day (although I am not a professional photographer!) to give the owners updates. I work from home so I'm able to keep my eye on your dog all day and would be very attuned to what they need. I am currently working from home, so I will have lots of time for your furry children. I have a fenced backyard and would be able to take the dogs out for potty breaks during the day. I have a fenced yard and my own dog of 5 years. I have doggie gates in my house to separate if needed, and can put my dog in another part of the household or crate her, if needed.
About: I truly love dogs and treat every pup as my own. I adopted my dog when she was a puppy, so I understand how to care for dogs with patience and warmth. I’ve also helped friends look after their dogs many times, giving them plenty of love, playtime, and comfort. I host only 1 daycare dog and 1 boarding dog at a time, so I can give full attention and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved during their stay. 🐾💛 I work from home most of the time, so I’m always around to keep your pup company. We usually start the day with a little walk, some playtime in the backyard, and lots of cuddles throughout the day. It’s a calm, happy routine that dogs really enjoy. Dogs stay in a safe, clean, and calm home with a fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor play. I always keep a close eye on them to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and secure. I also communicate regularly with dog owners to provide updates and peace of mind while their pets are in my care.
“My dog is very clingy and cries when we leave him alone. I used Rae’s daycare service and left my dog with her today. She kept me updated throughout the day and sent me pictures. My dog got to play with another dog at her care and he had a good day. I will use Rae’s daycare services again and will highly recommend her. Thank you Rae.”
About: I grew up surrounded by dogs of all sizes and personalities, influenced by my father, a lifelong dog lover who owned everything from Chihuahuas to a Tibetan Mastiff. I’ve had two Poodles of my own and, as a trained groomer, I’m especially attentive to coat care, comfort, and handling. Every dog gets patient, loving care tailored to them I'm a stay-at-home parent, and my husband works from home, so there's almost always someone around to keep your pup company. We only accept one dog at a time (or dogs from the same family), which means a calm, relaxed environment and lots of individual attention. Your dog will be treated like part of the family while they're here-hanging out with us throughout the day, joining in on family activities, and, with your permission, coming along on family outings and adventures. We love making our guest pups feel right at home and giving them the same care, attention, and affection we'd want for our own dog. Your dog's comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. At my home, pups enjoy a fully fenced backyard with lots of space to move around and play, plus access to nearby ravine trails for walks and sniff-filled adventures. I follow each dog's routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise needs. For stays longer than one week, I'm also happy to provide a bath (with your permission) so your pup comes home clean and fresh. In a client’s home, I follow their routine closely to keep pets happy, comfortable, and secure.
“Luna had a great stay with Debora! She came home tired and happy! She can be timid with new people and she was made to feel at home right away. It gave me peace of mind when having to leave my puppy for the day. The photo and updates were wonderful.”
About: I am a huge animal lover who doesn't have the space to have my own pet at the moment. I have taken care of friends and families dogs 🐕 and cats 🐈 since I was a child.

About: My dog recently passed away at 14.2yo, before he went, he's a chronic patient of Osteopathy. I had experience taking him in and out of the vets, acupuncture, etc. I have a lot of patience and love for pets, especially chronically ill pet babies. I want to pass on love and care to other animals. I also kept a turtle at home for over 20 years. You can trust me 100% when your little kid is with me. I understand our pets mean everything to us, and we do also for them. It is my goal to make your pet feel the non-intrusive love/care they deserve while you're unavailable. Me and my partner work from home in corporate jobs, and we are home every day. We make sure your pet baby has our full attention. We take one pet baby at a time, we make sure they get all they need, while their favourite human is temporarily away. Me and my partner live in a 600sq foot condo in lakeshore downtown. We have a balcony with full access to the lakeshore. Our condo amenities include a large playground dog-friendly. If the weather is great, we will bring your baby out for long/short walks along the lakeshore, depending on their stamina and habit.

I’m especially attentive with dogs and puppies that need extra consistency, and I’m very respectful of cats who may need calm interaction and time to warm up. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are happy and well cared for.
“Melanie was fantastic with my giant puppy (over 100 pounds and 15 months old). She took great care of him and gave him long walks and lots of treats. He loved having her walk him for my holiday parties. It's great to know someone was coming in to care for him like I do!”

About: ***PRICE TRANSPARENCY: It's come to my attention that Rover service fees are inflating prices for what you can see on my profile. I am not happy about this. I am currently making $19.20 per 30 min drop-in/walk, but the posted price by Rover is much higher <---It was never my intention to charge this much, and I encourage clients to send Rover Support feedback about their fees, pricing and how their hijacking sitters' profiles by doing this. If you are unable to afford the current price, please message me anyway, and I can try to work within your budget. I'm an experienced Foster home, home visit and phone screener previously for a few home based rescues for dogs and cats. I've owned dogs and currently have 4 rescue cats. Adopt, don't shop is how I live. Experience and age (mine lol) matter. I love pets; I've opened my home numerous times to foster animals. I regard myself as an important link in the chain to allow pet owners to keep their pets instead of having to give them up due to having to work outside the home, or other reasons that we confront in rescue :) I collect pet food donations from PetValu partners in the city and give to citizens in need & sanctuaries. I want to make a difference. Creator of Ava's Foundation. I work a hybrid schedule, therefore many days of the week I am available for a drop in to your own place or possibly dog walking before work, during the work day, after work and in the evenings. I try to build up rapport with the dog or cat in question by talking to them as I enter the house, make them feel at ease with my voice in my presence, so that they love to see me and know that I mean fun and games and FOOD. I always make sure that the litter is cleaned or the dog is petted and loved and I’ve even taken care of rabbits who loved to see me because they knew that they would get fun and treats and their living area cleaned and tidied..
About: Experienced and passionate dog walker with 3 years of caring for pups of all breeds and sizes! I provide fun, safe, and engaging walks to keep your furry friend happy, healthy, and well-exercised. Whether it's a leisurely stroll or an energy-burning adventure, I treat every dog like family!

As a dog walker, my priority is always keeping your pet safe, comfortable, and happy during every walk. I make sure to follow all instructions provided, including leash preferences, routes, and any behavioral notes. During walks, I use secure leashing at all times, stay alert to surroundings (traffic, other dogs, weather), and adjust the pace and route based on your dog’s age, energy level, and needs. I avoid unsafe situations like overcrowded areas or extreme weather conditions. When entering and leaving your home, I ensure doors are securely locked and your pet is safely contained before and after walks. I’m respectful of your space and maintain a calm, positive environment for your dog. I also prioritize clear communication by providing updates after each walk, so you always know how your pet is doing.
“We are so happy to have found Jordan to walk our two Springer girls. She is really lovely - so friendly and helpful and caring. As she is only 5 minutes away and has a fairly flexible schedule we are lucky to be able to book her when needed. We're confident, too, that when we need our girls to stay at her home when we go away, they will be looked after brilliantly. We couldn't be happier.”

“Hank and Bauer were very well cared for during their stay. Plenty of pictures and updates were provided which gave us peace of mind and you could tell they genuinely cared for our pets. Hank has leg issues and our other dog is hyper, so they put Hank in a wagon while taking Bauer on a longer walk so that he wasn’t left behind 🐾❤️”
“Just came back from a one-week vacation and picked up Oscar from Sal. Oscar was so joyful and clearly well loved. Sal and his wife took such great care of him; it was obvious from how relaxed and happy Oscar looked. We’re so thankful for the kindness and attention they gave him while we were away. We’ll definitely be returning. Thank you, Sal, and a big thank-you to your family for welcoming Oscar into your home!”
“We are very grateful to Jiayi for taking such wonderful care of our dog, Tileh. She sent us photos and videos every day, which made us feel connected and reassured while we were away. Tileh looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for throughout his stay. Jiayi was responsive, professional, and clearly loves dogs. We would not hesitate to leave Tileh with her again and highly recommend her to other pet owners.”
“Lloyd had his first sleepover at Matthew’s house. He got lots of fresh air and exercise. Matthew was responsive when I checked in and it gave me peace of mind knowing Lloyd was well taken care of.”
“Rae was amazing from our first connection until my pick up. I did not worry about my girl at all. Felt reassured that Rae would be able to handle her needs. Rae was very communicative and I felt good leaving my girl with without a second thought.”
About: Lifelong Animal Lover Offering Personalized Care—Because Your Dog Deserves the Best I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly can’t imagine life without them. My days revolve around my own dogs and their comfort—and your pup will be treated with that same level of love, attention, and care. As a mature, responsible caregiver with excellent communication, I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe, and well cared for.

Whether it’s caring for playful puppies or gentle senior dogs, I’m experienced with all stages of life. I live in a house with a yard and two dogs of my own. I only take one dog (or two from same household) at a time so it’s not too much excitement. Or I’ll come to your home as needed!
“Megan and her family are amazing. This is our boys, new “home away from home”. The accommodation are spotless and our pups were treated like part of the family. We continually got updates with photos. We were totally put at ease. This was a great first experience for our dogs and family. Thank you so much.”
“Luisa was amazing, she kept us posted with pictures and updates on how our doodle Levi was doing. Levi was cared for with love and compassion and he loved being with Benji, it kept him occupied during our 2 week vacation. I definitely recommend Luisa to anyone that is looking for care”
“Shirin was a very kind and accommodating host, so much so that seems as though our Zeke was on a vacation of his own! With multiple communications throughout the day, including pictures and videos of Zeke playing around and having the best time, it was clear that we left our puppy in good and capable hands. Will be back for sure :)”
“Meghna is very sweet, she is responsable, was very lovely with our Tita, she understands dogs very well, send us pictures and update twice a day. Tita would spend another time with Meghna and Donna during our holiday vacation :) we feel very”
About: At this time, I will only be accepting one dog at a time. I do have a resident dog in my home, but she is very low maintenance. That means your dog will get my (almost!) undivided attention. I have lots of experience with taking care of dogs of all backgrounds from fostering and dogsitting, including puppies. I'm very in tune with the needs of dogs. I have taken care of dogs of all sizes, from 10 pounds to 50 pounds. I love sending lots of pictures and videos throughout the day (although I am not a professional photographer!) to give the owners updates. I work from home so I'm able to keep my eye on your dog all day and would be very attuned to what they need. I am currently working from home, so I will have lots of time for your furry children. I have a fenced backyard and would be able to take the dogs out for potty breaks during the day. I have a fenced yard and my own dog of 5 years. I have doggie gates in my house to separate if needed, and can put my dog in another part of the household or crate her, if needed.
“I’m very happy that Hao took such great care of Heart, helped him socialize with other dogs, and created a warm and emotionally comforting environment for him. I truly appreciate the professional care and attention Hao provided in every way, and I would confidently recommend Hao to other dog owners without hesitation. I would also like to sincerely thank Hao once again for taking such loving care of my dog, Heart, for 5 nights and 6 days.”
“We rarely have to board our dog, so were nervous to leave him at a kennel. We decided to try Rover, as we thought our dog would feel more comfortable in a home environment and are SO happy we did. Suzanne and Magda are dog lovers through and through. They are kind, warm people who went the extra mile to make sure Chaucer was happy and comfortable. They also made sure we got updates and pictures throughout the day, which we really appreciated and set us at ease. Thank you, Suzanne and Magda again. We'll be back!”
“Finding Lucy on River has been an excellent experience overall. Her communication is opportune and friendly, her place is ample and clean, and she's super friendly.. Honestly she will be my go to caretaker in the future. Thanks Lucy!”

“After our regular sitter became unexpectedly unavailable, we tried the Rover app for the first time and are beyond grateful for having come across John & Lisa. From initial contact, they were incredibly responsive, communicative and wonderful to deal with. We felt comfortable even before dropping Bella off and confident she was going to be in good hands. Bella is quite timid at first but through the photos/messages we were regularly provided, it was clear that she felt safe and warmed up quickly. So much so that we’re convinced Bella was a little depressed after we picked her up lol John/Lisa - thank you both so much for making our first Rover experience a pleasant one and for taking such great care of our fur baby. We will undoubtedly be booking with you both again!”

“Christina boarded my anxious dog, Rocky, for an evening and took great care of him. She helped him settle in quickly and sent reassuring photos showing he was relaxed and well looked after. She even did some training with him and handled his medications without any issue. Christina was also very responsive with messages throughout the stay.”
“Truly wonderful experience. My dog Pixel has special needs — she's blind, and almost sixteen years old — so I'm always nervous about leaving her with people I've never dealt with before. This is especially true when it comes to a long stay; and I had to leave Pixel for a couple of weeks. Emily and Chun were perfect, and Pixel clearly adored them; no question that I'll be using their services again whenever I need to board my dog in Toronto.”
