“Sherry watched my Molly girl for a week while I went on vacation. She regularly sent updates and pictures which I found very helpful since she had never stayed overnight before. Molly was happy and healthy when I picked her up and fit right in with Sherry's cat and dog. I will definitely be using her services again. Highly recommend Thank you again Sherry😁❤️🐕”

“Sarah and Karine are amazing. I’m fairly sure Georgia (our Anatolian shepherd) would move in with them if it was possible. They are incredibly accommodating and so down to earth. They had no problem extending our stay by a day because of flight delays. They never hesitated to send videos and pics of our girl and always kept me updated. Thank you both for the easiest and best Rover experience ever!”

“Johanne is such a delightful woman and when we picked Everest up after 3 nights she was so happy and you could tell she was very loved while we away. She doesn't do well in traditional kennels, so the 1-1 attention and care was a million percent worth it!”

“I felt very relaxed on my vacation while my senior dobie settled in at Brittany’s. My girl loves being around people so this was perfect. Brittany sent photos and updates on Maggie’s walks and her stay. Maggie also takes medication three times a day and this was no issue. I would definitely book with Brittany again and would recommend.”

About: I offer services that I have been trained and educated on for 10 years. I love working with animals hands on and giving them the care and attention they need! I’m excited to offer your pet a comfortable and welcoming experience with a passionate animal caregiver! I have the space in my cottage for active animals, space to play and to keep animals separated if needed. I also have the time to go for walks every hour and live by a beautiful private path, so it’s a beautiful walk away from the hustle and bustle of the city! I am very excited to be apart of this company and can not wait to meet you and your pet! Stay safe and I shall see you soon! (All Covid-19 protocols are followed with my service) I am currently working as a landscaper part time and have lots of time to keep your pet enjoying themselves, stimulated and take care of their needs. When your pet comes into my care I treat them as if they were my fur baby. They get spoiled with love but respected if not up for attention. They will get lots of fresh air in a safe place and can choose to go for a dip as I am on the Ottawa river.

“Thank you very much Jen. Jen was friendly, engaged and took excellent care of Charlotte. This was our dog's first time with Jen, and I would highly recommend her and trust her with our dog again.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 5 years and have always had a love for animals. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I always take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I’m an active, responsible, and dependable person who enjoys spending time outdoors, making long walks and playtime something I genuinely look forward to. Whether your dog loves adventures, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their daily routine, I’ll make sure they receive the same care and attention they would at home. I’m happy to provide regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member! I currently work short shifts a couple of times throughout the week, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. I also have my own dog, so pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, or check-ins, I’ll make sure they receive lots of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust. I have a spacious backyard with both a secure fenced area for safe play and an additional open area where all outdoor time is closely supervised. During the summer, dogs can also enjoy our fun dog sprinkler to cool off and play (if they like water!). I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, make sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection, and always treat them like one of my own. I’ll also send regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and having fun.Please note: My pool is always supervised, and pets are never left unattended outdoors.

It was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t be more pleased with the Rover app and especially Sherry! Sherry was very efficient with communication and her yard was a doggie haven. Sherry provided honest feedback and provided a loving environment during a thunderstorm storm. Sherry responded within minutes of our request and accommodated us right away. I would recommend Sherry to anyone!!!

I have a very clingy family oriented German Shepherd when I was away for the weekend and she treated him just like her own dog and was amazing and every step of the way, sending all the update photos for me as it was my first time leaving him alone and made sure to take him for lots of walks and got lots of enrichment and he was so comfortable and so relaxed with her 10 out of 10 recommend and will be using again. Rex absolutely loved his visit.

Tianna took great care of Turbo. She took him on long walks. She also allowed him to feel at home by letting him sniff around the house and relax on her couch. Her dog Monty is a sweet puppy and was a great friend to Turbo during his stay. We are very glad Tiannna was able to take care of our dog while we were away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Petawawa on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 8 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Petawawa. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Petawawa home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favourite hang-out spots in your Petawawa

Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

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 dog, 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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.
