“I was very pleased with the friendly service, that my dog got from Gretel. Drop off and pick up went smoothly, and Trixie enjoyed her stay with other furry friends. I would not hesitate to use Gretel as my dog sitter in the future.”
“Bryan and Raisa are just an amazing couple who absolutely love what they do. Archie, my standard poodle was a happy guy meeting the two of them and Milo. I felt very comfortable with them looking after Archie and have already booked another stay. Loved receiving the videos and pics while we were away. I would totally give them 100 stars if I could.”
“Genna was absolute perfection. She watched my 90lbs dog while I was away for a week, and WOW. He could not have been happier! She sent me daily updates and ensured he was in the best care. He was so happy with her and her family. She is the absolute best!!”
About: i have experience taking care of neighbours, family and friends pets! over my lifetime, i’ve had dogs, geckos and i currently have bugsy, my black cat and love of my life! i have a part time job with a max of 6 hour shifts, plus all my masters classes are online, therefore, i am very available for your furry (and non-furry) friends! i am currently doing an online masters and working part time a few days a week. i am very much a homebody and will spend lots of quality time with your furry friends, no matter their type of needs. Pet sitting for others before, I know how nerve wrecking it can be for pets to have a stranger in their own homes! I am very patient (as an anxious person myself) and will take the time to let them get comfortable with me!
“We just cannot thank Elizabeth (Jayne) enough for all the love and attention she gave our old boy, Jack while we were away on vacation. Jayne was happy to be in touch with us and regularly sent pics and videos. Jack doesn’t always do well without us, but he settled in quickly and absolutely loved all the walks, love and attention he got at Jayne’s house! Jack is diabetic so it was such a relief knowing that Jayne had lots of experience giving insulin too. We will most definitely be calling Jayne again! Thank you, Jayne!”
“Jessica and Raja were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING with our three-year old chocolate lab, River. She had a wonderful two week visit with them and their dog, Koda. They welcomed River into their home and family; they took her for lots of walks and runs; and they kept us up to date daily with how River was doing. They shared a bunch of photos over the time, which was super nice, because it enabled us to see that River was looking really happy and relaxed — which made us feel relaxed. Their dog, Koda, is friendly and gentle and seemed to treat River like a little sister. We will 100% be planning to ask Jessica and Raja (and Koda) to watch River the next time we go away! Five + stars. We appreciate your warmth, kindness, and excellent communications. Thank you, J&R, for taking such wonder care of our doggy!!!”
“Allyson and her family were absolutely fabulous with Chica\! From the very beginning, Allyson’s communication was stellar—she was incredibly responsive, kind, and so accommodating, especially when I had to make last\-minute changes to drop\-off and pick\-up times\. They sent me lots of pictures throughout Chica’s stay, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was happy and well cared for\. It was such a wonderful experience from start to finish, and I’ve already booked Chica’s next stay with Allyson and her family\! I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, trustworthy, and caring home for their pet\. 🐾❤️”
“Vicki and her family were the absolute best home we could have asked for, for our Loki. Vicki sent updates and photos, showing us how how loved and well cared for he was all week. We would recommend Vicki to anyone looking for a wonderful home to love and care for your dog!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs most of my life having grew up around multiple dog breeds both male and female! My partner and I are the biggest dog lovers, with our own little girl and committed to providing the best care possible. I currently work from home 1-2 days a week and am available weekends and evenings to care for your pups! Work from home days are flexible depending on your needs I have a large fenced garden for roaming and fun and 1 super friendly golden girl (see profile pic) who wants to make friends with all. Given this we are fully equipped to care for ur dogs in our home or I have a licence and can travel as needed.
“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!”
“Esten (and Alfie) made my 9 year old black lab feel right at home. He loved the toys, playing with Alfie, rolling in the backyard, and generally being a part of the family. The photos of my dog were a treat and reassuring that all was well. Esten was also great about giving my dog medication, and also checked in with any questions or updates. I would highly recommend letting your dog stay with Esten, and plan to have him look after my dog again,”
“Dana and Robert are amazing! They watched my two mini poms at their home while I was away for 9 days. I had a lot of anxiety as this was my first time using them, I have never been away from my poms this long and they both have major separation anxiety when I'm away and my one pom has severe medical issues that can be triggered by stress. It made me feel better meeting them, knowing they have lots of glowing reviews and that this is literally all they do. They both care for dogs full time and were so accommodating with me, following all my instructions to the tee. My dogs don't do great with other dogs, so they blocked off the whole week just for me so that it would just be my poms in their home which meant so much to me. They are on a raw food diet which required extra feeding steps and they had no issue with this. I told Dana to feel free to spam me with messages as it would make me feel better checking in on them when I need to. She didn't require any responses back that took me away from my family and vacation, but anytime I wanted to check in on them there was about 30 + messages for the day I could quickly skim through to have peace of mind, even detailing all bowel movements (part of an indicator of my pom with the medical issues was doing), if they ate all their food, them playing, their walks, and lots of cuddle time with Dana and Robert. My one pom in particular is wary of anyone outside our family and does not cuddle with others, but after the first day, he was cuddled right in with Dana and it was clear in the videos and pics that they were both very happy and enjoyed being there. Despite my one pom in particular being very co-dependent with me and his medical issues generally triggered by stress and change, he had no issues! It was such a relief finding Dana and Robert and I will be using them on all future trips and recommending them to all my family and friends!”
“Martha is fabulous! We were having some work done on our house and I was terrified of our cats accidentally getting out while the crew were there. Luckily, with very short notice, Martha came to the rescue and took great care of our 2 Maine Coons, Flora & Cameron. I received a few videos from Martha throughout the day, which helped to ease the anxiety I was feeling about having someone else take care of my precious babies. I highly recommend Martha!”
“Alessia was SO good with our boy. She provided pictures + updates - and listened with care to all of his needs and comforts. He had the best time playing with her sweet dog and got all the snuggles!”
“Lisa was great She gave our Mackie a warm family atmosphere in her home and her dog and ours got along so feel it was like they were related. I have a feeling she spoiled him during his stay. She sent us pictures that prove this. Thanks Lisa and I would highly recommend her”
About: For my whole life, I have always had family dogs. As an adult, I got my own family dog and he’s so loved! Dogs always made me feel save, loved and at peace. They are so loyal, loveable, and perfect to talk to. I am the first person my friends and family ask to watch their precious fur babies while they go on vacation, short or long stays, or even to let them out to the bathroom or feed them if they are running late. I have an open house for dogs to roam. They are welcome to wander around and make use of my backyard. I have experience in raw diets along with kibble. I love getting out and taking dogs for walks, and hikes. I have great trails near my house. I don’t mind giving your dogs a baths along with brushing them. I am a great listener, a friendly face and an awesome cuddler. My hours are very flexible as I am a stay at home mom and I dont mind a little commute, I have my own transportation. I promise your puppies vacay will be a fun one! I am currently a stay at home mama. We have a 3.5 year old daughter who’s bright and cheerful, and a sweet 8 month old boy. If you don’t mind your dogs around a little one, and they are child friendly, we’d love to accommodate your furry friend. I am currently a stay at home mom, so I have lots of time to play with your puppy and give them as much attention as they need! I have a fully fenced in yard on an acre, lots of room to run and explore. I also have cameras all around our property.
“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.”
About: We are a family who has a love for all animals! I personally have experience running an animal rescue, as well as with medically complex pets that require medication and special care. At this time we are very selective with the boarders that we accept to ensure we are able to provide the best care and experience for your pets. We are currently only accepting one small dog at a time for boarding to ensure your babies are well taken care of and are able to have a peaceful experience. I’m home with my two kids and two fur babies. We have an infant and a nine year old child. We have a senior boxer mix, Bailey, who is a full time napper, and part time Amazon delivery driver watch. We also have our free range Bunny, Clover, who is litter trained. Our home has a very large yard, however, is not fenced so I air on the side of caution and keep dogs leashed. The street is very quiet if we feel like going for an on-leash walk.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Peterborough is $55

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!
Ellie instantly bonded to Rojina ( Seyyedehhosna) which put us at ease. Her daily updates including pictures showed us how happy she was and the excellent care she was receiving. Rojina's love for all animals is very evident and we would definitely recommend her to other pet owners.
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!!
Brooke was terrific with our Springer Spaniel. Murphy received lots of attention, many walks and Brooke had the flexibility to spend time with him in the morning, at mid-day and evening. Murphy was very happy and content when we picked him up. I would definitely use Brooke again when needed.
I would happily ask Rhonda to dog sit for me again (and I plan to!). She spent a week with my dog while I was on vacation and not only took great care of him, but my home as well - she went above and beyond. She was extremely communicative and even sent me photos while I was away and it looked like they had a great time. My dog has some trust issues and Rhonda really managed him well. He seemed to really like her and let down his guard. Thank you so much again Rhonda, you were fantastic! We look forward to seeing you again. :)

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
sitters in Peterborough have an average of 19 years of experience. Each sitter has their own unique experience and skill sets for different types of pets. You can find details of each sitter’s potential certifications and abilities, such as pet first-aid or senior pet experience, listed on their profile.

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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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.
You and your Peterborough sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
