“Angie was fantastic! It was a short notice booking and she was quick to respond and accommodate. She was accessible and provided updates on my two large dogs. I’ll definitely book with Angie and her family again. They were wonderful.”
“Madison and Brandon were amazing dog sitters for Teddy. They were very patient and worked with him to get to know their three dogs. Very responsive and attentive to Teddy.”
“Neri and Robert are very caring people who love dogs. Our puppy obviously liked them, and felt comfortable with them. Neri took her to visit people in a nursing home, and to Home Depot where our pup could share her gregarious personality. We loved getting Neri’s texts and pictures every day while we were away. We felt comfortable that she was receiving kind and loving care.”
“Kym kept me updated of how my pet was doing through texts and pictures while I was out of town and she took really great care of my pet which put me at ease knowing my dog was safe and well cared for.”
“Jessica and Ben do such a good job watching our dog! She is so flexible with scheduling and always sends us pictures at least once a day to keep us updated! Cannot recommend them enough!”
About: I’ve worked in the vet field for 6 years, caring for dogs and cats. And I’ve been fostering for 6 years as well. I’ve had a love for animals since before I can remember. They are my passion. I care for every single one of them as my own I’m a stay at home mom. I don’t have a lot planned right now other than some up north trips and a wedding to plan. Our house can be chaos with all the animals and 2 kids. But everyone is loved and played with. We can go for walks as our neighborhood is not as busy.
“Bandit has such a great time with Michael! I cannot say enough good things, and we've already booked more visits. Michael is truly a dog person, great with senior doggos and very kind and communicative.”
“I am very happy with the care my two dogs received while staying with Jemily and her family. It was so nice receiving videos and pictures throughout their stay so I could feel confident that they were having a great time and were being well taken care of! I highly recommend her if you are needing someone to care for your pets.”
“Amber made pick up and drop off quick and easy. She provided updates and photos/videos during our stay and accommodated us when we were running late. Would use her services again.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and have always had a special love for them. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities — from playful puppies full of energy to senior dogs who need extra patience and calm. I’m known for being responsible, attentive, and caring. I always follow each family’s routines, provide enjoyable walks, and make sure every pet feels safe and happy, just like at home. My priority is to create an environment of trust, love, and well-being. I strive to make every dog enjoy their time with me and keep open communication with owners, so they can feel confident knowing their furry friend is in good hands. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to adapt easily to each pet’s needs, giving them quality time, walks, play, and personalized attention. I truly enjoy spending time with animals—they bring me peace and happiness. I always strive to create a calm and loving environment where every pet feels comfortable, safe, and happy while in my care. The safety and comfort of every pet are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or at the owner’s home, I make sure they are in a calm, clean, and secure environment. I take time to understand each pet’s routine and personality to help them feel comfortable and keep their day as normal as possible. I’m careful with doors, leashes, and feeding schedules, and I always supervise outdoor time to ensure their well being. My goal is to create a peaceful and loving atmosphere where every pet feels cared for, respected, and happy while their owners are away.
“Melissa took wonderful care of our fur babies! It was a short stay but Chocolate Chip and Remy had so much fun with her dog Willow and the other border, Chase. Little Remy really bonded with Melissa and ended up sleeping with her. He’s a picky eater and Melissa was so kind to hand feed him! Would definitely board our pups with her again.”
“This is the third time my dog has stayed with Alissa, and it’s always a fantastic experience. Alissa is incredibly attentive and loving, making me feel very comfortable leaving my dog with her. Alissa takes excellent care of my dog, who always comes back happy and well looked after. She regularly sends photos and updates, keeping me informed. Alissa is also very accommodating with schedules, which is a great help. I highly recommend Alissa’s Dog Day Care for anyone looking for a safe and loving place for their pet!”
About: I've had dogs my whole life. Most of the time more than one. I started looking into doing this on my own after I had such a hard time finding a place for my own babies when I went on vacation. There is a huge backyard for them to play. And plenty of space for them to sleep at night. There are plenty of doggy beds, but if you prefer to bring your babies bed/bedroom feel free to do so. I work from a home office. During the day, I take breaks and go outside with them for a bit. Other than that, they will have open access to a back yard to play all day long. Or if you or they prefer, we could keep them inside. I would providing the necessary potty breaks several times per day when I take a break. I'm very protective of all of them. As animals in my care, they are my responsibility to make sure they're kept safe. I take it very seriously.
“Brandon was FANTASTIC with Sadie and Trixie. They were so excited to see us when we picked them up, but in a way we could tell they were super well cared for. They kept running back to Brandon to make sure he was good and telling him goodbye in their own way. We can tell they developed a great bond and consider him family. They were exhausted and slept the whole way home. This tells us they got tons of good playtime in. Communication was great. We will absolutely have Brandon watch our fur kiddos next time we need to go out of town.”
About: I have had pets my whole life, we currently have a golden retriever/german shepherd mix. My 8 year old son wants to be a vet.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Petrolia 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 Petrolia
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.
