“We arrived to pick up Joey and I think he would have preferred to stay! We had pics and comments from Sheilagh when we were away and were never worried about the care he was receiving. Excellent dog sitting home! Joey is going back for another 5 day stay in December and I’m sure he’ll be excited to see Gigi the resident queen pooch again!”
“Gretel took great care of our dog, Rosie. Rosie enjoyed her stay and had fun socializing with the other dogs. Gretel offered a clean and safe environment. Would highly recommend!”
“Loghan has a lovely calm demeanor and is knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors. My dog was instantly comfortable with him. What a wonderful experience we will be back.”
“Our dog stayed with Bryan and Raisa over the weekend and came back to us happy and tired! She had an excellent time playing with their dog and we received many photos and videos of our pup throughout the weekend. Would recommend and we look forward to having Penny stay there again.”
“Highly recommend Anhi! She’s very caring, sent me regular updates and took good care of our senior dog Bella. She is on a special diet and has many quirks for senior lady that some may not wish to handle. Anhi fit her schedule around our last minute booking, shifted things around to accommodate us and took great care of Bella. We’re so thankful and would use her services again! Highly recommend!”

“Marta was our first sitter since moving to Peterborough and what a find! Great meet-and-greet, reliable communication and awesome updates throughout the day. My dog was in loving hands and I had peace of mind while she was in Marta’s care.”
About: I have enjoyed taking care of dogs and other pets from a young age. I like getting to know the unique qualities of each animal and enjoy providing an enriching environment full of activities for the active dog, or a quiet, calm space for the pets who take more time to settle in. Caring for, and socializing, puppies over a summer was one of the most memorable pet care times, as a family member was preparing to find homes for a litter. I'm currently off work for the summer and have lots of flexibility to care for your pets for overnight stays, walks, or drop in visits to your home. I have a fenced backyard and a park across the road with lots of walking trails around to accomodate all the needs or your furry friend. We do also have 1 friendly cat in the home.
“Christine is a very warm, very friendly caring person and it was obvious from the moment she met our two dogs they would be in wonderful hands with her! One of our dogs is very shy, yet she took to Christine very quickly. Their home is perfect in terms of the layout and with a fenced back yard. Christine sent us photos over the 3 day period and is very responsive in her replies. One of our dogs is challenged to navigate stairs however Christine had a gate to prevent her from going up the stairs and potentially hurting herself. We would definitely book Christine again to care for our two dogs!!”
“Susan and her family were really great with Elodie and Butters. I could tell right away that my dogs would love their stay. I really liked how they live all around fields so that the dogs have endless opportunities to run around and play. It felt like I was dropping them off to their own little vacation!”
About: I’ve been caring and keeping dogs company since I was 17. Family, friends and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk and provide loving companionship for their pups. I’m a totally dog person-can’t imagine the world without them! I’m currently work from home, giving me plenty of flexible time to care for your pets. I’m fully available on both weekdays and weekends from 8am to 9pm. I live in a house with a patio and unfenced yard, offering plenty of space both indoors and outdoors. We’re just a 10-minutes walk from Peterborough off-leash dog park, perfect for adding some extra fun and adventure to your puppy’s day!

“Marie was absolutely wonderful with Daisy over the weekend! She’s clearly very knowledgeable about dogs and kept me in the loop with evening updates, which I really appreciate. Daisy got lots of attention and exercise and was well cared for. I also really valued the training tips Marie shared and the time she took to explain things. Soo helpful. I felt completely at ease. Daisy was in such good hands. Highly recommend Marie to anyone looking for thoughtful, reliable pet care!”

“Andrea is an amazing sitter. She takes her time to ask questions, ensure that our boy was looked after well. She also is great a communicating and sending pictures and updates.”
“Danielle was the PERFECT choice to watch our boy Taco while we had to attend an out of town wedding. She was a great communicator before and during his stay and kept this anxious mama up to date on how and what he was doing. She even camped out in the living room with him overnight so he would feel safe and secure. I could tell Taco was very comfortable there. I highly recommend Danielle as a sitter for your pet.”

Prices are estimates per visit for 1 cat. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I’ve had cats in my home all of my life, but have had my own cat for 3.5 years now. My cat is part bengal, so naturally he is very energetic and smart. I’ve taught him to sit, high five, lay down, and fetch. I’ve given him both oral and topical (such as eye drops) medications successfully, and have always followed veterinary instructions closely. I clean his litter boxes daily, as he is quite particular. Furthermore, I’ve done a lot of research about cats in order to give him the best life possible. He has a water fountain away from his food because cats prefer running water, he is fed a special urinary care dry food because of past issues, and he is also fed wet food because moisture is of utmost importance for cats and their kidneys - especially male cats. I never keep flowers or toxic plants in my house for his safety, and I take him outside on a leash so that he is able to get the stimulation he needs with less risk. I’m a very particular cat owner, and would understand and respect any other cat owners preferences, just as I’d hope someone would do the same for me.

“Vanessa was awesome! She cared for our cat Luna while we were away, providing lots of updates & photos each visit. We had a last minute change to our pet care and Vanessa was able and willing to help us out with only a few days notice. We really appreciated her stepping up to help us and for being so loving to our sweet Luna. Highly recommend! We will definitely book Vanessa again in the future :)”
“Vanessa was so wonderful with our cats, Piper and Chewy. She sent us pictures and followed our feeding instructions perfectly. We felt really safe leaving them in her care and would again. Thank you Vanessa!”
About: What sets me apart is my deep, personal connection with cats, born from rescuing and caring for my own two cats throughout their entire lives. From those tender post-surgery days to every purr-filled moment since, I've cherished and nurtured them. This lifelong commitment gives me a unique understanding of feline needs, ensuring your cat receives the most compassionate and attentive care, tailored to their individual well-being
About: I’ve cared for my own cats as well as cats belonging to family and friends, giving me experience with a variety of personalities, temperaments, and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and making sure every cat gets plenty of love, attention, and companionship. Whether your cat enjoys playing with toys, lounging in a sunny spot, or prefers quiet company and affection on their own terms, I’ll provide personalized care based on their individual personality and needs. Your cat’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like one of my own and keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing they’re in caring and reliable hands.

“Loghan is awesome, great communication and easy to reach. He sends pictures during Leo's stay which I really appreciate. Leo loves going over to Loghans for a stay! Thank you so much.”
“She is amazing, very caring and very kind. Milo had never been away from home without us and he was super happy and relaxed, when my husband came to pick him up he wasn’t in any rush to leave but the opposite feels like he was hoping to stay longer. We really appreciate she walked Milo 4 times and when we came to pick him up we were impressed to see Milo walking so politely and relaxed with her, Milo with us is pulling the leach all the time. We are very happy and we’re thankful for all she did to integrate Milo and make him feel comfortable and happy”
“Not only did we need a daycare appointment on Christmas Day, we had to make a last-minute switch to Boxing Day. We had never worked with Bryan and Raisa before but we will again, definitely! Molly was well cared-for and in great spirits when we picked her up! We received some pics throughout as well. Thanks so much to Bryan and Raisa for giving us peace of mind!”
About: Hi! We are Star Sitters here on Rover, with 6 years of professional pet care and 18 with our own animals. Someone is always here in our calm, safe, and dog friendly home so your dog can spend the day with company instead of being home alone. We do live with our loveable Boston Terrier, Gus, and we are often found hiking on dog friendly trails on the weekend or spending time at the lake. We are very active, enjoy being outside and think dogs should be too - Gus has a lot of energy so daily excercise is key already here. I work as a professional planner and Scott works from home and we are both free on weekends with flexible schedules. We spend a lot of love and time on Gus, who, like us, loves being around other dogs. We would be happy to meet you and your doggy in advance so you can get to know us. Emily works in the office four days per week just a few minutes from home, Scott works from home. Neither of us work on the weekend. Our home is save for any animal - we're smoke free, drug free with no children. Gus loves other dogs and always enjoys having a friend around. Our back yard is mostly fenced in and it's tucked behind. The front is also mostly fenced with a small garden fence.
About: I've been caring for pets for over 15 years and love getting to know each animal's unique personality. My experience includes caring for friends' and neighbors' dogs, as well as raising four cats through every stage of life, from kittens to seniors. I know how important it is to keep pets safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking to their routine, I'll provide patient and personalized care adjusted to their needs. I love spending time outdoors and enjoy walks, hikes, and runs, so I would bring your pet with me if that's what they like too! I also have a fenced backyard (for more relaxed outdoor activities) and nearby trails for plenty of exercise. If your pet is more comfortable at home, I'm happy to travel to you. With my own car, I can also take dogs to parks or dog-friendly beaches for extra adventure, if you'd like. Whatever works best for you and your pet, I'm happy to help! I truly appreciate the opportunity to care for your furry family member and will treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I'd give my own. :) I’m available throughout the week and on weekends, and I’m happy to work around your schedule. Just let me know when you need care, and I’ll make it work. I can either take care of your pet at your place or mine. If it is your place, I respect the space, keep everything clean and organized, and ensure pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment. To my living situation: I currently live in a house with my partner without any pets or children. We have a fenced backyard and would have enough space for a crate in the house.
About: Thank you for reading over my page! I've grown up with dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and fish. And I love all animals. I'm most familiar with poodles, chow chows, and frenchies, but love all the funny and lovable characteristics every individual dog or cat possesses. I also have extensive experience with reactive dog, and can assist those who need walks with low interaction, special needs, training, etc. I currently work part time as a Law Clerk. This is why I am able to provide almost constant care in your home, dog walks, and whatever else you may need for your furry family members. Looking to help care for your little loved ones, and can also offer some special needs such as medication administration. I am most interested in house/pet sitting over weekdays and weekends. I can also accommodate last minute demands. Dog walking/hiking, drop-ins. All are welcome! Can't wait to meet you! Because I work part time my schedule is generally fairly open, except for school drop off and pick up during the school season. If your furry friend needs constant, uninterrupted care, please let me know and I will advise whether that will be possible. Your pets are your family, and I understand that. When I am caring for your pet I will always treat them with the utmost care and love, making sure any special needs or wants are met 100% of the time.
About: I've had dogs in my life for 40 years and truly love having them around. In recent years I've owned senior rescue dogs, so I understand how important patience, routine and gentle attention can be. Whether a dog is playful or just needs a place to happily chill, I make sure they feel comfortable and at ease. I take dogs in when you're travelling or need occasional dog sitting, rather than permanent dog care. Because I work from home, dogs fit very naturally into my daily routine. They get plenty of attention, regular outdoor breaks in my fenced yard and relaxed time inside the house with me throughout the day. I enjoy walking with them, playtime and quiet companionship. Your dog will stay in a calm, safe and loving home where they can relax and feel comfortable. They will have plenty of outdoor breaks in my fenced yard as well as regular walks. I pay close attention to their personality and routine so they feel safe, cared for and right at home while you're away. There are no other pets or children in my home, so your dog will have my full attention.

About: hiii, I’m Devin! (I’m new to Rover) I have (ongoing) experience volunteering at multiple humane societies, volunteering at an animal sanctuary, pet sitting, and I’m going into a Veterinary Technician program next year! I spend lots of my time caring for, playing with and loving animals with different personalities, needs, and comfort levels. Patience, consistency, and making animals feel safe and comfortable is very important. Volunteering and spending my time with animals reinforces how important it is to meet the needs of every specific individual animal. Im comfortable following specialized care and medical instructions carefully and paying close attention to changes in behaviour or needs. I’ve given prescribed medication to animals in many ways, many times so I’m 100% okay and accommodating to special care animals. I’m especially good with shy, anxious, or sensitive animals and try to create a calm, low-stress environment for them. I read, watch and learn lots about animals everyday. I have many certifications around animals as well; like the ‘Fear Free’ certification for example. What sets me apart is my experience and also that I genuinely care about animals as individuals and that I take the time to understand their individual personalities, routines, and boundaries rather than treating care as “just a job”. This is something I’m very passionate about. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and being attentive to their needs. I’m able to dedicate time throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, medication if needed, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’m someone who pays close attention to routines and details, so I understand the importance of consistency for animals. Whether a pet is energetic and playful or more shy and relaxed, I’m patient and adapt to what helps them feel safest and happiest. When caring for pets, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent, comfortable, and low-stress as possible. In a client’s home, I respect the pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, bathroom breaks, and rest so they can feel secure in their familiar environment. I pay close attention to behavior, body language, and energy levels to make sure pets are comfortable and getting the care they need. I’m patient with shy or anxious animals and make sure they have space, attention, and calm interaction at their own pace. Safety and cleanliness are also important to me, and I make sure pets have a secure environment, fresh water, and plenty of attention and companionship while their owner is away.

About: Hi there! thanks for checking out my profile. Happy to have you here. I will leave a brief but detailed synopsis about myself and my experience working with pets. My goal is to help you make an informed decision regarding your pet's stay while you are away. My name is Vee. I am a university student full of vibrant energy and a love for pets. I have five years of documented experience in pet sitting. I have had pets of all sorts and breed under my care. Domestic pets such as cats, dogs, birds, horses and reptiles I have attended to. I am well vexed in this field as I volunteered with an animal shelter catering to older pets. I loved it! I am certified in CPR for pets should an emergency arise. I take pride in my vigilance and accessibility. I am a student of life and love to learn as much as I can and build amazing friendships with pet owners while taking great care of their pets! I would also like to describe myself as trustworthy. I am organized and my love for pets shows in various aspects. I have excellent multitasking and communication skills. I am also really good at recalling names. Cruelty-free enthusiast. Can’t wait to meet you and start taking care of these amazing pets! Thank you for trusting me to care for your babies while you take a well-deserved break 😊 I am available all year round to accept bookings and do my best to respond to bookings in a timely manner. I am honest and transparent about my hours and will not take any more bookings than necessary. I am extremely passionate about this business. I try not to overwhelm myself as this is important to me. I aim to be the best sitter I can be and strive for perfection each stay. I do not overcharge for stays and my low prices for stays are deliberate. I do this for the company as I enjoy having pets around while I study. It's a win-win. I formulated a couple of games to occupy and tire out your pet for the entirety of their stay. I will send photos of the entirety of the stay and keep in touch so you have peace of mind. I have spare toys in my care also, but always recommend bringing your own. I have had pets with severe anxiety and having a piece of home, be it a blanket or toys that smell like home helps a ton. As far as safety, I have a fenced yard in my apartment and will never let a pet off-leash especially if your pet does not have any recall. I enjoy practicing training with pets also and have successfully conditioned some to learn commands. I offer grooming services as well at no extra cost, except showers/baths. Your pet is in safe hands and you will have nothing to worry about while they are in my care. I will make sure of that.

Given this we are fully equipped to care for ur dogs in our home or I have a licence and can travel as needed.
“Marta was our first sitter since moving to Peterborough and what a find! Great meet-and-greet, reliable communication and awesome updates throughout the day. My dog was in loving hands and I had peace of mind while she was in Marta’s care.”
About: I have enjoyed taking care of dogs and other pets from a young age. I like getting to know the unique qualities of each animal and enjoy providing an enriching environment full of activities for the active dog, or a quiet, calm space for the pets who take more time to settle in. Caring for, and socializing, puppies over a summer was one of the most memorable pet care times, as a family member was preparing to find homes for a litter. I'm currently off work for the summer and have lots of flexibility to care for your pets for overnight stays, walks, or drop in visits to your home. I have a fenced backyard and a park across the road with lots of walking trails around to accomodate all the needs or your furry friend. We do also have 1 friendly cat in the home.
“Christine is a very warm, very friendly caring person and it was obvious from the moment she met our two dogs they would be in wonderful hands with her! One of our dogs is very shy, yet she took to Christine very quickly. Their home is perfect in terms of the layout and with a fenced back yard. Christine sent us photos over the 3 day period and is very responsive in her replies. One of our dogs is challenged to navigate stairs however Christine had a gate to prevent her from going up the stairs and potentially hurting herself. We would definitely book Christine again to care for our two dogs!!”
“Susan and her family were really great with Elodie and Butters. I could tell right away that my dogs would love their stay. I really liked how they live all around fields so that the dogs have endless opportunities to run around and play. It felt like I was dropping them off to their own little vacation!”
“Dana and Robert were amazing!! They had my husky for almost a week and sent so many updates and pictures!! 10/10 great experience and i will definitely be contacting them in the future!!”

“Marie was absolutely wonderful with Daisy over the weekend! She’s clearly very knowledgeable about dogs and kept me in the loop with evening updates, which I really appreciate. Daisy got lots of attention and exercise and was well cared for. I also really valued the training tips Marie shared and the time she took to explain things. Soo helpful. I felt completely at ease. Daisy was in such good hands. Highly recommend Marie to anyone looking for thoughtful, reliable pet care!”
About: I am flexible in care and understanding every pet and pet parent has a unique need - not every situation will have the exact same care, and thats okay! :) I work remotely in my house. I have flexible working hours and can accommodate anything your fur baby needs. I am experienced with all animals from cats, dogs, rabbits, bearded dragons, fish, etc. I live in a bungalow with a fully fenced backyard and a secure gate. Feel free to ask me any questions to make you feel most comfortable about my care for your pet! I will work with whatever you and your pets needs are to ensure you are both happy and comfortable, knowing your pet is in good hands! I treat every animal as if they were my own :)
“Andrea is an amazing sitter. She takes her time to ask questions, ensure that our boy was looked after well. She also is great a communicating and sending pictures and updates.”
“Danielle was the PERFECT choice to watch our boy Taco while we had to attend an out of town wedding. She was a great communicator before and during his stay and kept this anxious mama up to date on how and what he was doing. She even camped out in the living room with him overnight so he would feel safe and secure. I could tell Taco was very comfortable there. I highly recommend Danielle as a sitter for your pet.”
“Our dog, Manu, recently spent 9 days in the care of Jane & Gordon. We were very satisfied with the care Manu received and we wouldn’t hesitate to ask Jane & Gordon to care for him in future.”
“Jasmine went out of her way to come into town to Pick up Joni from my work, as I was running late! Joni was LOVED and had so much FUN! I had no hesitations to Leave her with Jasmine, this is the first time since I loathe my dog May that I have trusted anyone with Joni’s care! SUPER job Jasmine! I will see you in The fall!”
“My dog never likes kennels or being boarded, ever. But she seemed to really like Jessica's! Jessica accepted our last minute request, and we are glad she did, as we have now found our go-to boarding place. Her dog seemed calm and gentle, which is exactly what our dog needed. I would definitely recommend Jessica.”
About: I’ve helped care for dogs since I was 9 years old. From puppies to seniors, big and small, there’s no dog I won’t care for. I work full time Monday to Friday, but my evenings and weekends are usually free. I have occasionally have online activities, but your pet will always have priority. I have a large yard for potty breaks, and live on a very quiet road for walks. Our house is large enough for playtime sessions.
