“Aijun is great. She is so nice and so good with our sweet dog. I was not worried while I was away one bit. She updated me, took him for good walks and was available to look after him on short notice, which was greatly appreciated."”
“This was our first time using Rover and Maude was absolutely wonderful. Our dog and cat took to her right away and they were well taken care of. We would definitely love to have Maude back again in the future.”
About: Je m’occupe des animaux à l’occasion, je garde les chats de mon amoureux quand il est en voyage ainsi que le chien de mon amie quand elle part une journée. J’ai également gardé le chat de cette amie lors d’un voyage. J’ai un horaire de travail standard (9-5 de semaine), je suis dispo le matin, le midi au besoin et le soir, ainsi que les fin de semaine ! J’ai l’habitude de prendre soin des animaux de mon amoureux, de les nourrir, de faire leur litière, de nettoyer leurs dégâts quand il y en a (hahaha!) et, surtout, de leur donner beaucoup d’amour ! Puis, chez mes amis, j’accorde toujours beaucoup d’attention à leurs animaux (ma bonne amie m’a officiellement nommée marraine de son chien).
“Super disponible et affectueuse avec notre gros toutou! En plus de s’être déplacée à la maison, tout était en ordre à notre arrivée et notre chien était très heureux/en forme. 🙂 Nous recommencerons sans hésiter à utiliser ses services!”
About: Hello pet parents! 👋🐾 I'm Jules, a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to two cats, Thunder and Kabisou. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your pets while you're away. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting in your home. Depending on your pet's routine, my visits can include walks, playtime, feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, administering basic care as instructed, and—of course—plenty of attention and affection. As a longtime pet owner, I have hands-on experience caring for cats and understanding their very different personalities, boundaries, and routines. I'm also comfortable caring for dogs, rabbits, and other pets. I take the time to learn about each animal before caring for them, including their routine, personality, favourite activities, feeding schedule, and anything that might make them nervous or uncomfortable. I'm patient with animals who need a little extra time to feel comfortable around someone new. I don't believe in forcing interactions—I let them approach me at their own pace and work on building their trust. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to accommodate walks, daytime visits, evening visits, and pet-sitting depending on your needs. When I'm caring for your pet, I want you to feel reassured too, so I'm happy to provide regular updates and photos while you're away. For pet sitting, I provide care in your home so your pet can stay somewhere familiar, surrounded by their usual smells, toys, bed, and routine. I currently don't offer boarding in my own home because I already share my space with Thunder and Kabisou. Whether you need someone to walk your dog, check in on your cat while you're away, or simply give your pet some company and care during a busy day, I'll treat them with the same patience, attention, and kindness I'd want for my own pets. I'd love to meet you and your pets! 🐶🐱🐰 Pet care has been part of my routine for about five years, so I’m used to planning my days around the pets I care for. I have flexible availability throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, a midday check-in, an evening visit, or care while you’re away, I’ll do my best to accommodate their usual schedule and keep their routine as consistent as possible. Since I provide care in my clients’ homes, I understand that you’re trusting me with two very important things: your pet and your home. I carefully follow all instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, doors and gates, interactions with other animals, and any specific safety precautions. I also make sure your home is left secure and respected after every visit. I believe good pet care starts with trust, communication, and attention to detail. I’m happy to provide updates and photos during my visits so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and receiving the care they deserve.
About: I have two years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. What sets me apart is my ability to handle pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior cats needing extra attention. I’m comfortable administering basic medications and following special care routines. I also offer personalized playtime, basic training reinforcement, and plenty of affection to make sure your furry friends feel right at home. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 2 PM. I can also accommodate short-term bookings if needed and will make sure your pets receive plenty of attention and exercise. I have a secure fenced yard ,who can keep your pet company if they’re social. For cats and more private pets, I offer quiet spaces where they can relax. I’m attentive to each pet’s specific needs and can easily accommodate special requests like medication or additional walks.
About: I have had pets since childhood, I have had dogs, cats, ducks, sheep, parrots and I know how to take care of them well. Even now, I have two dogs, very active and healthy, who have been with me since they were two months old, one is 12 years old and the other is 9 years old Every day and every night on all days of the week on all official and unofficial holidays and weekends To walk, maintain and feed I'm ready Because I love animals and I have had many animals myself and I know how much animal owners depend on their animals and how important and serious it is for them to take care of them, so I will take care of them in the best possible way.
About: I’ve had a soft spot for animals since I was young and loved helping care for my friends’s pets, gaining great experience with different kinds of animals. I also grew up with a Boxer/Lab mix, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. For the past two years, I’ve worked as a dog groomer assistant, where I’ve learned how to keep pets safe, comfortable, and gently handle unique dog characters. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and truly at home while you’re away — belly rubs and tail wags included! 🐶🐾 I work full-time, so I’m most available on weekends and before or after work hours. However, I’m happy to be flexible and make time for your pets whenever needed. I’m really attentive and love giving your pet lots of love and care. I’ll make sure they get plenty of potty breaks and time to stretch their legs. Whether your pet is at my place or yours, I keep things safe, clean, and cozy for them.

“Highly recommend Amira! She is absolutely fantastic. She sent me many videos and pictures of her and my dog Bear on long walks and playing fetch. You can tell she really loves animals and takes extremely good care of them. 5/5 will for sure be booking Amira again.”
About: I have had doggies my whole life and since my last darling passed, I have been a foster Mom and boarder to many! I adore doggies and have a huge yard and heart to match! I support many online charities that save and care for refuge doggies! I was also a caregiver for my senior Mom in her latter years, so patience and love come naturally to me. I am retired so home all day and love having doggies to share the house! I also share the house with a friend so we are both available for walkings etc. I have a huge yard that is partially fenced-in to allow doggies to run and "do their business" throughout the day outside of regular walk times.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Otterburn Park maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Otterburn Park walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Otterburn Park choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, a background check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
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.
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.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, your payment method is charged at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
