“Maia was kind enough to come to a meet and greet visit days before the sitting job. I enjoyed our time chatting and getting to know a bit about her. I felt really good about leaving Sully with her. During the actual sitting job, she had planned many activities to help keep my high energy puppy busy. We know that they went for walks, played ball and much more as he was tired out! And that was a good thing! Looking forward to a repeat visit. Thanks Maia for taking such good care of Sully.”


“Holly did such an amazing job. I tell people my cat has separation anxiety but really it’s me. I’m usually afraid to leave him alone but Holly hung out with him the whole time it was so nice. We can tell he was so taken care of and loved it was great. I wasn’t nervous at all to leave him with Holly! We will definitely have her look after bubble every time! Thanks Holly :)”


“Lauren will be looking after our 3 furries in a couple of weeks, so we had her over for a “warm up” sleepover stay with our animals. It went great!! Even our cat who is very shy made an appearance and warmed up to Lauren quickly. Highly recommend Lauren as a professional, kind, and communicative sitter for your own furries!”


“Noor's enthusiasm and friendly approach to taking care of our small dog was evident from the meet and greet. She clearly loves animals and made a point to send me many pictures of our dog having so many safe and engaging adventures. I am quite confident that our pup is safe and happy in her care.”


“Morgan was fantastic and so patient and understanding with the chaos of the wedding and accommodated everything we needed to have peace of mind and enjoy the day.”


“It was a pleasure to meet Neonica and have her in our home. She was able to entertain Sully for two hours outside giving him lots of exercise. I enjoyed the video she shared and a follow up picture of a very tired puppy. Already looking forward to having her back.”


“Haley is hands down, the absolute best, end of story! Our rescue pittie has been with us for about 8 months now and he's come a long way so we decided to see if we could entertain the idea of traveling a bit but know he was in the best care. Haley house sit for us as a trial overnight and our dog immediately took to her calm approach, energy and the care she took while initially meeting him and then as she house sit for us. Her attention to detail, not only to our care guide we put together and her own expertise, but the frequency she communicates, as well as the respect she has for our house and belongings, put us at ease we made the right decision. Can't recommend Haley enough and we are so thankful (and lucky) she is here for Rueben!”


“Laurie took amazing care of our beagle Lola. She made us feel comfortable leaving her in her care and was friendly and professional. Our dog Lola was absolutely in love with her and we could tell she has a special bond with animals. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”


“This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous about having a stranger watch my dog because she has a lot of anxiety. Carolyn did a meet and greet earlier in the week to make sure it was a good fit. She arrived on time and took good care of my dog, sending lots of picks of her playing. I will definitely use her again in the future.”


About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for about 10 years from having 2 cats at home and one dog, I am all taking care of a few dogs in Canada where I study and take them for walks and house sit when the owners are out of town. it helps me take a break from doing whatever to care for the pet and walk it and spend time with an animal for a few hours in a day to get my mindset different. On a daily basis I wake up and feed the dog and then take him/ her for a walk and play with the pet for a while and then take him/ her for an other walk and then at night I feed him/ her again and take him for an other walk and then one more before bed so I’m taking the pet for a walk around 4-5 times a day depends.

About: From early days caring for family and friends' dogs, I've gained my skills in dog sitting, walking, and feeding. Your pet's well-being is my top priority, offering experienced and trustworthy services to keep tails wagging and owners at ease.

“Noelle took care of my dog Moe for about 10 days. She was fantastic! She took Moe on car rides (his favorite) and many walks, and kept me updated frequently with photos. Moe is very dog reactive and Noelle had no issues with him. She kept the house looking fantastic and was a genuinely amazing person! Moe and I will be repeat customers for sure :)”

About: I have had always loved animals; they are family. They require affection, compassion, consistency, commitment and love. Regular walks/runs and a regular feeding schedule daily. As a pet parent, I clean the litter boxed twice daily, replenish food and water regularly taking into account the age, size, diet and instructions. My cats are strictly indoor cats; they get fresh air by opening windows. I prefer instructions to direct me as to habits, tendencies and requirements.

About: I have grown up with animals all my life from dogs and cats to reptiles and amphibians! Ever since I was a kid I have been obsessed with dogs and the amazing things they can be trained to do! I pride myself in my understanding on dogs body language and understanding how their minds work! I do currently work full time but I am looking to fill my free time with something I love and that’s spending time with animals! Well I can’t not provide day care or overnight in my home as I don’t live alone, I have a friendly fur baby of my own who loves meeting new friends on walks. I promise to respect your dogs daily routine and rules as I would expect someone watching my dog to do the same as to keep structure in your pets life well you are away as your absence can be stressful to your pet on its own.

About: Have been helping families and friends for long time during their vacation and now rover gives me same chance to extended my support to neighbourhood I am currently working full-time from home but I am also looking for a really fun experience with your pets and taking care of them. don’t see any other work better than this.

Cédric has a natural ability to connect with pets and alleviate tension or anxieties with cats and dogs.

Cédric is very responsible when it comes to pet care. He is always punctual, reliable, and committed to providing the best possible care for their animal clients. He pays close attention to details and takes the time to learn about each pet's individual needs, preferences, and quirks. If your dog has dietary restrictions or special diets, he is very careful and ensures the proper care is met. Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend Cédric as a pet caregiver. He's a real animal lover that's passionate about providing excellent care to furry friends. Rest assured, Cédric is a diligent and amazing pet sitter or dog walker.”

kyia m.
“Although Kyia is now my Fiance, when we first got together in highschool I had to go out of province for a month and had no one to care for my crested gecko Moe while I was gone. Kyia offered to care for him in a heart beat and made sure he had everything he had everything he needed and remainded happy and healthy the whole time I was gone and was sad when I came to take him home when I got back. We now have Two crested Geckos and a dog (Malibu). Kyia truely does love and cares for all animals no matter how big or small and nothing upsets her more then people not taking proper care of their animals. I can't count the amount of times Kyia came home and told me she stopped on the side of the road even in the middle of the night to try and save a lost/stray animal. Even if we werent together there would be no one i'd trust more to care for my pets.”
