“Meagan took awesome care of our little Mille. Right from the moment we met Meagan and her family we knew Mille would love staying with them. We plan to have Meagan take care of our dog 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.”
“We've left our mini labradoodle, Cookie, in her care a couples now, and each time has been an incredible experience. Monique is very communicative and keeping us aware of Cookie's status, making sure we never ever have to stress about him. It's an added bonus that she has a couple of her own, which gives Cookie a chance to socialize and forget about his separation anxiety. Highly recommended to leave your loved ones in her care if you're in the area!”
“Naomi & Sam were amazing sitters for our 3 yr old (85 pound) Bernese Mountain dog. Our dog was able to stay with them for 6 nights and while she was with them she got lots of walks, great play time with their dog and kids and Naomi sent us pictures of all of her adventures every day. Having a large breed dog in your home is a challenge for many people, and this family was awesome. I would highly recommend using Naomi and Sam for a short or long stay with your dog - they were GREAT hosts. We will be booking with them again for sure.”
“I’m so grateful to Jennifer and Brent for taking such good care of my dog, Mishti, while I was away. She can be a little anxious and picky with her food, but they were so patient with her and even hand-fed her to make sure she was eating. They kept me updated throughout, which really helped me feel at ease. I could tell Mishti was in caring hands. They also took her on lovely long walks, which she really enjoyed. Overall, they did an amazing job, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book them again!”
“Jolene and Martin and their family were so incredibly nice!!! They took terrific care of our sweet Great Dane. They went out of their way to ensure Dilly was happy and comfortable. I highly recommend them.”
“Stephanie provides a loving and caring home. Communication is outstanding and cared for my dog qs if it was her own. Will be booking with Stephanie for future trips”
“Karen and Jorge were great with our little dog Gracie. Gracie took to them right away, was clearly comfortable in their home and they spoiled her with love and attention. They sent us photos and updates throughout the weekend. We will happily book again with Karen and Jorge.”
“Deborah did an amazing job taking care of Molly for the time she stayed there. I felt comfortable leaving her with Deborah and Molly seemed to enjoy being there too Highly recommended!”
“We were very nervous about leaving our 9-year old frenchie (Gus) while we went on a family vacation over Christmas. How fortunate we were to find Siobhan on this Rover App. Our dog accompanied us to a short visit prior to our booking and we were immediately put at ease. Gus loved being there. While we were away we received regular updates with pictures and videos which reinforced our good feelings about how he was being cared for. When we arrived to pick him up he wasn’t all that excited to leave with us. We could tell that he loved his stay with Siobhan and family. We would 100% highly recommend!”
“Charlene and her husband along with their dog, Dora, provided Ella with a wonderful experience from the moment she met them until we picked her up. Charlene sent us numerous photos of Ella enjoying herself both inside and outside their home. We were very comforted and reassured by the eases with which Ella adjusted to her first experience with being cared for by anyone other than us since we adopted her 3 1/2 years ago. We will request that they look after Ella whenever we return to the Niagara area.”
“Totally satisfied customer . My dog was well taken care of and had no hiccups at all . My dog came back home happy and merry after staying in Richard's house for 5 nights . I would highly recommend Richard .”
“Heather and Matt were absolutely incredible with Charlie during our 10 days away. We had met with another sitter before them and it just didn’t feel right, but from our very first meet and greet with Heather and Matt, we immediately knew they were the perfect fit. We felt confident leaving Charlie in their care. They treated him like part of their family and truly loved him. Their communication was exceptional—we received regular updates and lots of photos, which gave us such peace of mind. This was especially important to us as Charlie had recently had surgery to remove a lump on his back and still had stitches. They followed all instructions perfectly and were so attentive and caring. Charlie is also very spoiled and loves being cozy with his blankets, and they went above and beyond by setting up his bed near the fireplace to keep him warm! We felt completely at ease the entire time and were so impressed that we’ve already booked another stay. We cannot recommend Heather and Matt highly enough.”
“Hayley was amazing! we could tell coco had a great time during her stay since she came home tired. She was very responsive and took care of all coco's needs. Definitely recommend her”
“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!!!”
“This was my first experience using a pet sitter and Teena and Wayne did not disappoint. They took good care of Sheamus and he seemed happy to stay with them. I've already recommended them to my neighbor who is looking for a pet sitter.”
“Catia was incredibly attentive to my dog while she was boarded. My dog was incredibly well taken care of and had exciting enrichment opportunities (playing with others, trips to the park, time in the backyard, and quality snuggle time indoors). Catia offered a safe and fun home for my dog to board while I was away and sent many updates while I was away. I would absolutely book with Catia again!”
“Jenn & Brian did an amazing job with our puppy! She loved playing with their 3 dogs in their backyard and going on walks with them. They took great care of our puppy!”

About: I’ve been caring for cats for about seven years through cat sitting for neighbours, friends and family. Cats have always been a huge part of my life and I’ve had four of my own. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playing, giving affection (on their terms!), or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your cat like they’re one of my own.
“Holly is an amazing pet sitter and really took her time making sure my pet was well cared for and his dietary restrictions were met. She's great and I'd love to rehire her anytime!”
“We are so grateful to have found Sarah to watch our cats while we were away. One of our cats is extremely timid and Sarah was very kind and patient with her - she's the only cat sitter that our girl has ever liked. We appreciated the detailed updates and photos. It brought us so much peace of mind. We will definitely be hiring Sarah to watch our cats in the future.”
About: I’ve had cats throughout my life and have experience caring for them from playful kittens all the way through their senior years. I understand that every cat has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I’m happy to give them the space they need while still making sure they feel loved and cared for. I’m comfortable with feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, cuddles, and keeping them company. Whether your kitty is super social or a little more shy and independent, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. 🐱💕
“Kari took amazing care of our two kitties during our weekend away! She wrote out fun detailed recaps of every visit, and sent lots of photos! She really did take care of our fur babies as if they were her own, and we look forward to booking with her again!”
“Jenny did an awesome job doing drop-ins for our two cats. We contacted her on quite short notice and she quickly responded and set up a meet & greet. I could tell upon meeting that she was a reliable person, and she made our weekend away worry-free! :)”
“Sam is incredible - she's watched my 4 cats several times now and I hope to keep having her back as my guys absolutely love her. Sam is a warm, caring, genuine person which is evident in her communication and how quickly animals take to her (including my guys who can be a little tentative with others.) Most recently Sam watched my babies for an extended period and I had so much peace of mind being away knowing Sam provides incredible care and is super communicative in both lead up and during visits. Highly highly highly recommend Sam.”
“Jacqueline is an absolutely wonderful sitter! She took excellent care of our little girl while we were away. It was Scarlett's first time without her humans, and considering she has a tough past, we were concerned about how she would feel. Jacqueline made sure that Scarlett felt safe and comfortable, offering kindness, soft words, and continued patience. She was always on time and made sure to send us photos and updates 🙂 We would definitely recommend Jacqueline and hope that she would want to sit for Scarlett again in the future 💖 Thanks again, Jacqueline!”
About: I’ve been around cats for a few years and absolutely love their unique personalities! I’m comfortable caring for cats with different temperaments and needs, including feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention. I’m happy to let shy cats warm up at their own pace while making sure every cat feels safe, comfortable, and cared for.
“Jade was amazing! We booked her in last minute and she was great! She made the time to come meet our cats before her visits and was super responsive throughout the week. Would highly recommend if you need someone local.”
“Monica went above and beyond during our visit. Gave them love and attention. She did extra things for our furbabies. When we did our first meet I knew instantly she was kind and her kids were so sweet with our babies. Thank you again for looking after our babies. The photos made me happy to see our furbabies doing so well under your care. Sending you best wishes”
“Charlene was lovely and loved my cat while I was away. She sent photos and videos and kept me updated, but most of all I could see that my pet enjoyed her company! Would definitely have Charlene in my home again.”
“Kristen did a fantastic job making sure our cats had great company and to follow our instructions. Kristen is very thorough and communicative. She went the extra mile and they are clearly very happy in her care. Highly recommend.”

“Thank you Siobhan for taking such good care of Whisky. He had a blast and made some new friends. We will definitely keep you in mind for our next visit in the Niagara region”
“Stephanie did an amazing job taking care of our dog Apollo! This was our first time leaving him with anyone other than family and he loved it, but most importantly we were reassured that he was safe and doing well during the whole day. Stephanie sent us many videos and pictures of Apollo’s stay, which was amazing because we could see how much fun he was having! I will and already have booked multiple more doggy day care for Apollo with Stephanie and recommend anyone to do so too!”
“We did a one-day trial with Monique to see how Dolce would do, and it was a great experience. She got along well with Monique’s two dogs, went for a walk, and seemed happy and comfortable. Monique sent photo updates during the day, which I really appreciated. Dolce even ate a little while she was there, which is a very good sign for my picky little poodle! We’d definitely book with Monique again.”
“We were visiting Niagara Falls with our dog, Ruby, and wanted a safe/fun place for her to stay while we explored the area. Holly was great! She sent updates throughout the day (which gave me peace of mind), and Ruby loved playing with her two dogs. The fenced yard was a big plus. Everything worked out perfectly, and we’d definitely reach out to Holly again if we’re back in the area.”
“We appreciated Kelly and her family suggesting a meet & greet and a trial day to see if our dog would be a good fit before committing to a long stay. They clearly communicated to us potential concerns with our dog staying for a long time and that shows they care about the safety of our dog and other dogs under their care :)”
“Karen and Jorge were amazing with Ocho! They took great care of him, kept us updated with photos throughout the day, and made us feel completely at ease. We highly recommend them and would definitely book with them again! 🐶💛”
“Lily was a little scared at first, but once I came to pick her up she had settled greatly. She was SO excited to come back the next time! Richard is very friendly and easy to talk to. Lily is happy and well taken care of there, and that’s so important to me. I hope to continue bringing Lily to Richard whenever possible!”
“Bo had an amazing fun time with Connor! We definitely recommend Connor to care for you fur baby. We'll be back for sure! Connor was quick to respond to messages and actually did things with Bo rather than keep him in the backyard all day. Bo was happy to be included in Connor's activities and hang out with Connor when Bo was ready to rest. Thanks Connor for taking great care of our pup!”
“Charlene was amazing. My doggie is from the US and he now has a CA dog buddy name Dora & a special human friend Charlene🌷. She took such great care of Rocket. He enjoyed himself for 2 daytime daycare visits.. This helped us have a more enjoyable vacation and afforded Rocket the same as well. This was our first road trip with Rocket. Thank You so much Charlene.💐🌸🌺🌸🌷🌷🌷🌷🌺🌸💐”

“Monica and her children have been fantastic with our puppy Ace! Pick up and drop off are very easy and enjoyable. Monica always sends photos and updates so I can see how Ace’s day is going. Ace loves going to daycare at Monica’s and always wags his tail when we pull up to her home. My fiancée and I are very thankful that Monica took a chance on our pup and would highly recommend her to our family and friends.”

“Liz is a very kind and warm human. She bonded well with my little guy and took very good care of him. She was accommodating to my changing schedules which I was extremely grateful for. I would definitely recommend Liz and work with her again! Thanks, Liz !”
“I’m so very pleased to have made a connection with Tammy. First, she was willing to meet and test herself for any allergic reaction to our Lexi. Thankfully there was none!! From the first moment we met Tammy and later her hsbd, I could see Lexi was super relaxed and at ease. Getting to know Tammy prior to arranging daycare was a pleasure. I appreciated all the questions, her eagerness to interact with Lexi, her manner of joy, gentleness and natural confident leadership while handling our girl. Our first dog-sitting went smoothly for everyone. There was excellent communication between us, I had 100% peace of mind while away and from photos Tammy shared, I could see Lexi was a very happy girl. I’m grateful to know that Tammy and Gord are people with whom we can trust and count on for future dog sitting and perhaps (hopefully!), overnight stays too ?? ?”

“Gillian was absolutely AMAZING!!! Whisky was such a happy boy having gone on walks with Gillian and I was told that he very much looked forward to seeing Gillian and his daily walks with her while I was away. Gillian was incredibly easy to work with and so very accommodating!!! I/we are THRILLED and will be booking with her again!!! HIGHLY recommended ❤️”
“This was the first time using a dog walking service . I can’t say enough about Karen and rover . Karen was amazing, sent pictures every day and kept us posted on the walks. I will definitely be using this service again!”
“We’ve only known Jenny for short time, but in that short time, she’s made a wonderful impression on both us and our Aussie/collie mix, Dexter. Her punctuality and genuine affection for Dexter have been evident from day one. Dexter eagerly awaits their walks, and it’s clear he enjoys his time with her. She knows what he needs- time off leash so he can run and run! My dog will eat anything on the ground. You have to watch him so closely and I know he's safe with her. Jenny’s professionalism and warmth have quickly earned our trust, and we’re looking forward to continuing Dexter's relationship with Jenny. We highly recommend her services to anyone seeking a reliable and caring dog walker.”

“This was our first time leaving our Benji alone for a week. We were feeling very unsure and anxious as to how to go about this. Our daughter was getting married in Mexico and everyone we knew would attend. A friend mentioned Rover and we investigated. But who to trust? After a few attempts, we noticed Jade with all her great reviews. It was the right decision! Jade was prompt, courteous, lovely with huge smiles. Most importantly, Benji warmed right up to her! We knew it then. Our worries faded quickly. Every day, twice, we were texted the time of walking, the map of the route, his activity and pictures. It made our week! Jade was so consistent and thorough, we vowed to give her a big SHOUT OUT! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, the assurance was greatly appreciated! :)”
About: Hello! I’ve been around dogs my whole life, and over the past few years I’ve gotten even more involved with caring for them. For the last five years, I’ve been walking dogs in my neighborhood and looking after all kinds of breeds with different personalities and needs. I’ve also helped a few dogs recover from injuries, making sure they stayed comfortable while still keeping a simple routine. I’ve been helping out more people in my community too—especially seniors who need support with feeding, walking, or giving their pets a bath. And of course, I have my own two-year-old dog at home who’s full of energy, so I’m very used to active dogs that need lots of attention and exercise. Taking care of dogs has always felt natural to me. I genuinely enjoy it, and I’m always happy to help. I’d love to give your dog the same patient, caring, and reliable support. I have a very flexible and open schedule, so I’m available to care for your pet any time of the day, any day of the week. Whether it’s a quick visit, a long walk, or overnight care, I’ll be happy to make sure your furry friend feels comfortable, loved, and well looked after. I always treat every pet as if they were my own. When caring for dogs in my client’s home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar environment. I follow all feeding and walking routines closely, keep fresh water available at all times, and give plenty of playtime, attention, and affection. I also pay close attention to each dog’s unique personality and needs — whether that means going for long, energetic walks, enjoying some quiet cuddle time, or helping shy pets feel more confident. I keep owners updated with messages, photos, and notes after every visit so they always know how their pet is doing. With my experience walking and caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, you can count on me to be reliable, patient, and genuinely dedicated to your pet’s happiness and well-being.
“Jonathon was fantastic with our dog for the week we were away. He gave her lots of love and attention and she seemed to enjoy her time with him! If we need a dog walker in future we will be hiring Jonathon once again. Thanks for spoiling our pup!”
“Great experience with Connor! He was very reliable and able to cater to Milo’s needs (reactive on leash). He’s knowledgeable and clearly a big dog lover! Very happy overall.”
About: Hi, I'm Kirsten, but you can call me Kirty as all my friends do! I've been looking after animals for other people in my life for as long as I can remember. This is where my passion lies and I want to spend as much time with animals as I can. I have years of experience with cats and dogs of all ages and breeds. Next up on my list of things to learn is animal CPR! I will update once I'm certified. I work a part-time job with fairly flexible hours, and have had to balance both working and pet care many times over the last 5 years. My main priority is to do whatever is best for the pets, so I always find a way to fit them into my schedule. I'm very easy-going so we can always find something that works, together! I've spent many days and nights having slumber parties with pets at the owners houses. Whatever the pet needs, I'm there! I've had to follow special diets, provide medications, and even dealt with night terrors. I love to care for every animal as if they're my own!
About: Extremely experienced and have been taking care of animals for over 15 years! I treat each pet like a family member with unconditional love <3 I am currently at home full time, so I will have unlimited time to spend with each and every fur baby! My schedule is very open; available for boarding almost 7 days a week! Caring for animals isn't just a job to me; it is natural and part of my every day life! Great size family home with lots of room and comfy furniture for them to feel right at home. I have a fully fenced in back yard, offering lots of play time outside. Awesome neighborhood for ample walks as well. I do have two friendly cats; both love and are used to dogs. If the need for crating is requested, I do have one available.
“Excellent! Sarah helped with our dog, Nimbus, on a last minute weekend. She made a trip to visit and meet him and took good care of him on each visit between walks and making sure he had water and food. Even if he can be a slow / putzy walker some days! Very easy to communicate with. Would absolutely ask her again.”
“Baxter really enjoyed his walks with Nishara. She was so caring and thoughtful of Baxters needs during a very hot week and made sure he got lots of shade and water on his walks. Baxter would give her 5 paws out of 5 paws! Highly recommend.”
About: I grew up around a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, goats, bunnies, and chickens! I love pets and I love to spend my time with animals. I care deeply about all beings and love to help those needed! I am studying Psychology at Brock University, though I have a flexible schedule. My goal is to prioritize my clients on Rover and my studies. I am open to most availabilities and am excited to spend time with your fur babies! I am very gentle, with reasonable boundaries, especially depending on any care considerations with each individual client! I cannot have pets full-time in my apartment as my roommate is slightly allergic, but play dates are all good!

“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.

If I need to board Trouble again I will definately reach out to board with Samantha and her family.”
“Naomi & Sam were amazing sitters for our 3 yr old (85 pound) Bernese Mountain dog. Our dog was able to stay with them for 6 nights and while she was with them she got lots of walks, great play time with their dog and kids and Naomi sent us pictures of all of her adventures every day. Having a large breed dog in your home is a challenge for many people, and this family was awesome. I would highly recommend using Naomi and Sam for a short or long stay with your dog - they were GREAT hosts. We will be booking with them again for sure.”
“Stephanie provides a loving and caring home. Communication is outstanding and cared for my dog qs if it was her own. Will be booking with Stephanie for future trips”
“Karen and Jorge were great with our little dog Gracie. Gracie took to them right away, was clearly comfortable in their home and they spoiled her with love and attention. They sent us photos and updates throughout the weekend. We will happily book again with Karen and Jorge.”
“Charlene and her husband along with their dog, Dora, provided Ella with a wonderful experience from the moment she met them until we picked her up. Charlene sent us numerous photos of Ella enjoying herself both inside and outside their home. We were very comforted and reassured by the eases with which Ella adjusted to her first experience with being cared for by anyone other than us since we adopted her 3 1/2 years ago. We will request that they look after Ella whenever we return to the Niagara area.”
“Hayley was amazing! we could tell coco had a great time during her stay since she came home tired. She was very responsive and took care of all coco's needs. Definitely recommend her”
“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!!!”
“This was my first experience using a pet sitter and Teena and Wayne did not disappoint. They took good care of Sheamus and he seemed happy to stay with them. I've already recommended them to my neighbor who is looking for a pet sitter.”
“Catia was incredibly attentive to my dog while she was boarded. My dog was incredibly well taken care of and had exciting enrichment opportunities (playing with others, trips to the park, time in the backyard, and quality snuggle time indoors). Catia offered a safe and fun home for my dog to board while I was away and sent many updates while I was away. I would absolutely book with Catia again!”
“Jenn & Brian did an amazing job with our puppy! She loved playing with their 3 dogs in their backyard and going on walks with them. They took great care of our puppy!”
“Our dog Darcy continues to receive excellent care and attention while boarding with Maddie, her dogs and her incredibly helpful husband, Steve. Darcy is always eager to run up to the house when I'm dropping him off so he obviously enjoys his stays. It almost makes me wonder if he wants to move in!”
“Couldn't be happier with the care Connor gave to Atlas. He also sent amazing updates and so many great pictures. It was clear that Atlas was super well cared for and we're so grateful.”
“Very professional, warm and friendly. Rosie and Wilbur were well cared for and came home happy and rested. We will definitely use Andreas and Rover again .”
“My dog absolutely loved his stay with Kelly and her family. I have never left my dog before, and I was very nervous, but Kelly went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable. I received photos & videos of my dog while I was away, and it kept my mind at ease. I definitely recommend leaving your dog with Kelly. My dog will definitely be back :)”
“Sydney was great with my dog and felt confident with leaving my dog in her care. I was updated with pictures and when walks and my dog ate.. Her dog Jessie was a sweet girl as well.”
