“Catia was amazing with my boy! She sent plenty of updates and pictures, which I loved! She also took him for multiple walks and he came home happy and content. I highly recommend her services. I don’t trust just anyone with my dogs, but I’m glad I found Catia!”
“Frankie and Mavis had a great time with Jolene, Martin and their children! From the second the dogs were dropped off, they received lots of cuddles and attention. Jolene and Martin provided amazing updates and pictures of Frankie and Mavis over the course of their stay which was greatly appreciated.”
“Jeff was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Stanley! He boarded him overnight and made the whole experience completely stress-free. His home was very clean and welcoming, which gave me great peace of mind right away. Jeff has such a calm and soothing demeanor that immediately put Stanley at ease and comfortable in a new environment. He also kept me updated with lots of photos and videos, which I truly appreciated. I would absolutely trust Jeff with Stanley again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Thank you Jenn & Brian for taking such great care of Rooney, just like last time. Thanks for all the pics and videos while we were away! Clearly he had a blast playing with your pups, and he also came home nice and clean!! 😀 You guys are the best!”
“Raisa was a wonderful sitter! She made me feel very at ease to leave Dexter with her from the moment of our meet and greet. She kept me up to date on how Dexter was doing with photos and was very flexible to my return for pickup. Dexter can’t wait to return!”
“Charlette was absolutely amazing with my dog while my family and I went away!! Sent so many photos during her stay and it warmed my heart that her daughters helped out and played with her as well. Will definitely be booking again. Thank you, Charlette!!!”
“Our little Bonnie had a wonderful stay with Sandy. Unlike many others we felt 100% happy and confident that our little ball of fluff was well cared for. Bonnie came back very happy and relaxed which is a great sign. Sandy had lots of space to give Bonnie the exercise she needs, being quite an active dog this was great to see. We have certainly found our sitter for bonnie and will be using Sandy again without hesitation.”
“My husband and I were nervous we would not be able to find a sitter for our dog Enzo for our wedding weekend. Enzo is a more advanced dog, and requires more attention than most, due to his aggression with other dogs. From the moment we met Brent and Jennifer, we knew he would be in great hands. Both of them are confident and competent experienced dog owners, and gracefully handled all of Enzo's dog run ins. We received nightly updates and pictures filling us in with what Enzo did that day. It was our first time leaving Enzo alone for more than one night, and were nervous (plus nerves from our upcoming nuptials), but Brent and Jennifer calmed our nerves. I would have them watch Enzo over and over again and recommend them to anyone! It is a shame they do not live in London!”
“Daniela was awesome! First time leaving our dogs - not with family. She sent us lots of photos as we were nervous leaving them. We felt reassured when we saw them. It was obvious from the photos they were in good hands! Thanks Daniela!”
“Kiara & Yves are genuinely such fantastic pet sitters, and kept my mind at ease during travel knowing that my cat was in such good hands! Not only were they very kind and pleasant to talk to, but Kiara was very knowledgeable about animals in general and shared some useful information. They were very diligent in making sure my kitty was being cared for properly, along with sending updates and pictures. From medication, to going out of their way to buy specific kibble that my cat was used to after not adjusting, you can be assured that your pet will be watched by responsible, enthusiastic, and caring folks.”
“We had to leave Simba with Richard for a long duration of 21 days. We’re a bit worried as Simba was never away from us for more than a week in past. However we were amazed to see how quickly Simba formed a bond with Richard and Oreo ( Richard’s pet) during the meet and greet session. Richard is an amazing dog lover. He sent us regular updates and pictures of Simba without us having to remind him. Simba was really happy with him and had a great time. Richard also made him try Christmas clothes.. lol. When we went to pick up Simba, Richard had neatly packed all his stuff so we didn’t have to worry. It was very sweet of him and his partner to have knitted a woollen winter beanie for Simba that he absolutely loved. We as parents are glad that Simba stayed with Richard while we were on vacation. Definitely going to Richard for repeat as long as he’s available. Thanks again!”
“Siobhan gave us frequent updates on how Oliver was doing and even let him sleep on a blanket beside her bed. She was so lovely to communicate with and Oliver was happy and relaxed when we picked him up. I highly recommend Siobhan for dog sitting and we intend to use her services in the future.”
“We are very grateful and happy for the care they gave our little Loki. They were always very communicative and affectionate. Thank you very much. 100% recommended.”
“Erika was wonderful! She was prompt to respond to messages and sent numerous pictures of our dogs during their stay. I appreciated her offer to do a meet and greet because we were able to see the space and get to know her before drop off day. We will definitely use Erika again in the future!!”
“Samantha and her family were amazing with my two golden retrievers for ten days! I got lots of updates and pictures. They were so happy and when they got home they weren't upset or anxious at all. You could tell they recevied lots of love while we were gone and had a great time. Thanks Samantha!!!”
“Monica is the best. The dogs love her and we will trust her with our puppers for any time we need a pet sitter. She was extremely communicative- texts, videos, pictures- and we couldn't have asked for better.”
“Charlene took great care of our Gracie for a day and overnight while we were out of town. We were fortunate that she was able to accommodate us on short notice! Charlene also sent us lots of pictures and some videos where we could tell that Gracie was having lots of fun playing with her own dog Dora, as well as some downtime resting with Dora. We would definitely be happy leaving Gracie again in Charlene’s care.”
“Courtney provided wonderful care for our dog during a lengthy two week stay. She was constantly in communication with us, sent an abundant amount of photos, and made sure our pup felt right at home. We will definitely using her again for future needs and I highly recommend her to others!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Port Colborne
Thank you, Catia, for taking such great care of Alfie & Bella. This was our first time using both this app, but also having them looked after outside their home. Our babies stayed with Catia for just over a week, and throughout their entire stay, we were kept updated by messages and photos of the pooches who were clearly loving every minute of their vacation. She opened her and her family’s home, and Alfie & Bella certainly felt at ease. Thank you for being the incredible caregiver that you are! We will definitely book again when we travel, and I know Alfie & Bella look forward to their next vacation, too.

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 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.

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 Port Colborne 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.
