“Vanessa and her family took great care of Lucy! She looks after multiple dogs and vets each one to make sure everyone gets along. Lucy had so many fun play days and we got to see it daily with pictures and videos. Vanessa herself was super easy to deal with. She has great communication skills and she's super caring. Thanks Vanessa and Fam!”

“We had such a wonderful experience with Soumya! She kept us regularly updated with photos and videos of Baloo throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was really reassuring to see that he was happy, comfortable, and having such a great time. She also kept us updated on how he was doing, whether he’d had his dinner, and all the little things that helped us feel completely at ease while we were away. We ended up getting delayed on our way back from vacation, and Soumya was incredibly kind and accommodating about it, which we’re so grateful for. And a special mention to her adorable little puppy, Veera, who was such great company for Baloo! He absolutely loved having a buddy to play with, and it was so sweet seeing them together. 🥰 We’re extremely grateful to Soumya for taking such good care of Baloo and would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring and trustworthy to look after their fur baby! ❤️🐾”

“What an amazing experience! My dogs had such a good time, I got updates, response time was great and really saved me in a last-minute jam. I'd give more than 5 stars if I could. Highly recommend!”

“I was very happy with the care Norma & Bill gave to Benji. He stayed with them for two weeks when I was away. They were amazing and cared for him as their own. They kept me informed and sent photos regularly. They will definitely be my go to sitters in the future. Thank you Norma & Bill for the love & care you gave him. I'm sure he misses you both.”

“Hillary took amazing care of my dog for an entire week, and I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. She kept me updated throughout the stay by sending regular photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that my dog was happy, comfortable, and well-loved in her care. Hillary is kind, reliable, and truly goes above and beyond for the pets she watches. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you again, Hillary!”

“Faye was an amazing sitter. Our Snowy was well loved and looked after. Faye is very flexible and understanding. She is a pet mom herself so it makes things so much easy. We left Snowy for 2 nights / 3 days; Snowy had so much fun. We will definitely use Faye's services in the future and highly recommend her if you are from the Oshawa area.”

“Anchana did such an excellent job! We were especially grateful for her patience with Teddy seeing that he is a puppy and has occasional accidents. Plus, she went over and beyond and surpassed our expectations! She’s a keeper!”

“Heather is wonderful, extremely responsible, professional and caring. Their place was like home for Posie, they took care of her like their own. Posie loved roaming around the big beautiful backyard and snuggle with Heather ❤️ I received constant updates, I had no doubt Posie had the most amazing time away from home.”

“Always appreciate having Tia and family take care of our boston terrier as a regular customer. He's always eager to run into their home, get comfortable and always comes back home happy.”
“It was Chester’s first time and he was very well taken care of. Pratheeksha updated us with texts and photos during the stay. She made sure he was comfortable and took extra time and effort to make sure he ate properly. Thank you for the love and care he was shown! Will definitely be rebooking again and highly recommend!”

“Maria is wonderful! She watched our dog for 5 days while we were away and sent many pictures and updates. Mipha came home happy and pooped! We are very grateful to have found someone so close by who can take such wonderful care of our dog!”

“Kumudini took care of our pup like he was hers. She sent pictures and videos regularly and you could see how happy he was to be with her. She listened to all our instructions for care and went above and beyond to look after him. I will definitely rebook and absolutely trust her with our fur baby.”

“Qian was the most phenomenal sitter I could have possibly asked for. When I was looking on Rover I was concerned I wouldn’t find someone that could care for my girl as much as I do, but I was so wrong. Qian sent me tons of updates with photos, reassuring me the entire time as this was my first time being away from my girl. If you are looking for someone to watch your dog that is kind, attentive and caring, I could not recommend Qian enough. I will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.”

“i felt so at peace leaving my sweet honey in the care of stacey! right from the meet and greet i could see her love for animals and her experience. she was honest, detail oriented, and asked great questions. throughout honey's stay, stacey sent me updates and photos of how honey was doing! i will definitely rebook with stacey when i need care again, and would highly recommend her!”

“Chantelle was amazing with our 4 month old cockapoo! I couldn’t have asked for better care. It was a bit intimidating leaving our puppy with a stranger but we had a meet and greet and knew she would be in good hands. And she was! We left our puppy overnight and Chantelle provided me with updates and pictures. I will definitely be using Chantelle again in the future and would highly recommend her to care for your pet.”

About: We cared for our two beloved cats, Ari and Ori, as well as our German Shepherd Kai for over 10 years before having children. Ari was independent and cautious, while Ori was outgoing and curious, and we loved getting to know their unique personalities. Kai was a loving, snuggly, and admirable ball of energy. Our home was truly their home first, and we always prioritized creating a calm, safe, and loving environment tailored to their comfort. That same care and attention to detail is what we now offer to every cat we look after through Rover. We work remotely so we are home all day. Our flexible schedules allow us to go on frequent walks and we love walks as a family. We care for pets with a strong focus on safety, trust, and a peaceful environment. We take time to understand each pet’s needs and personality, create a secure and pet-friendly space, and maintain consistent routines to help them feel at ease. Building trust through gentle interaction and close observation is key, and we always ensure that pets feel safe, respected, and truly at home in our care.

Can’t recommend Julia enough! This was my dogs first longer stay with a Rover caregiver and Rhonda came home completely relaxed and happy. Julia allowed me to do a meet and greet and sent lots of photos/updates. I trust her completely to watch Rhonda again in the future. Thank you Julia!

I’m always anxious leaving Ava with someone new, but she settled in right away with Sowmya and her husband and felt right at home! Sowmya kept me reassured with regular photos and videos throughout her stay. Ava was clearly happy and well cared for. I highly recommend them and will definitely book again! ❤️🐾

Kazi is an amazing dog sitter. Our Rosie always comes back from her home very healthy and happy. We know we can trust our beloved fur baby in the hands of someone so kind and compassionate towards animals. Kazi gives multiple updates and pictures of our dog during the time she is with the sitter. We can rest assured that all is well and that Rosie is in good care. 5 stars for a wonderful experience.

Melissa provided great care for our dog Sadie! She sent us pictures throughout her visit which was wonderful. Even though Sadie has some anxiety away from us, she settled in after awhile and Melissa really seemed to want her to feel comfortable. Once Sadie came back home we could tell she was well cared for and happy. Thank you so much for taking great care of our girl!
I’m so glad I booked with Noor! My cat was comfortable with her immediately, I think she was really drawn to her calm demeanour. Noor sent photos and updates so I could see that my baby was happy and in good hands, which made me feel so much better about leaving her. She even went out of her way to help us with medication! I would definitely book with her again if the opportunity arose. Thanks, Noor :)

This was Axel’s first time boarding with Kayla - Lea. She did a great job with him. The pictures she sent of him while we were away, gave us peace of mind because he looked quite comfortable and happy. He boarded with her picked for 8 days. I would definitely recommend her and hope to use her services in the future.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
