About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs for over 25 years and understand how important it is to know your dog is safe, comfortable and loved while you’re away. I’m an empty nester and home throughout the day, so your dog will receive plenty of individual attention, companionship, outdoor time and affection. My home in Port Stanley is quiet and pet-free, with a large fully fenced yard where your dog can safely enjoy plenty of fresh air and playtime. I only host dogs from one family at a time, making my home especially comfortable for dogs who may not enjoy a busy kennel or being around unfamiliar pets. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking and sleeping routine and provide regular photos and updates so you can relax knowing they’re being well cared for. My goal is simple: I want your dog to feel like they’re staying with family. ❤️ I’m home throughout the day, so your dog will have plenty of companionship, attention and outdoor time. I’m available for both overnight boarding and doggy daycare throughout the week. With a large fenced yard, frequent potty breaks and playtime are easy to fit into our day. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual feeding, walking and sleeping routine so they feel comfortable and at home. I provide a quiet, comfortable, pet-free home with a large fully fenced yard where your dog can safely enjoy supervised outdoor time. I only host dogs from one family at a time, so your dog receives plenty of individual attention without being surrounded by unfamiliar pets. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding, medications, walks and routines, and I’m happy to provide regular photos and updates throughout their stay.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover. I grew up surrounded by cats, dogs, and other pets, and I’ve continued that love into adulthood by raising and fostering animals of my own. I understand how important it is to find pet care you can truly trust. When your pet is in my care, they’ll be treated like one of my own with plenty of love, attention, appropriate exercise, patience, and care for their individual routines and needs. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I also want to be transparent about an important part of my home environment: I have my two young children in my full-time care almost all the time. Because of this, I can only accept dogs who are completely trustworthy and comfortable around small children. If your dog is nervous, unpredictable, reactive, or uncomfortable around young children, I completely understand, but I would respectfully ask that you choose a sitter whose home is a better fit for their needs. My children are taught to be calm, gentle, and respectful of animals and their space, and I take everyone’s safety and comfort very seriously. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members and give them the love, attention, and care they deserve! I’m a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, which means I’m able to give your pet plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I have two little ones (ages 3 and 2) who are home with me and are just as animal-obsessed as I am! Pet care naturally fits into our daily routine, with plenty of time for walks, play, companionship, and making sure your pet’s individual needs and routine are maintained. I’m also happy to work with your pet’s usual feeding, potty, medication, and exercise schedule whenever possible. I live in a safe, family-friendly community with a fully fenced yard and lots of great options nearby for walks, outdoor time, and play. Pets in my care are always supervised and treated with patience, kindness, and respect. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and instructions, including crating, feeding schedules, medication, exercise, and any special needs. I’ll take care to keep them safe and comfortable, while giving you regular updates so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.

About: Grew up with and around dogs. My brother and his chocolate lab are moved out now. I would love to have a dog of my own one day. Hoping to fill the void until then by giving this a try. I currently work full time. I am available from 5pm onwards through out the week for walking. My home is available on weekends for sitting/overnight stays. I live in the country with a large yard and woods behind my house. Great for walks and playing. Dogs are welcome everywhere in house except bedrooms.

“Takes good care of pet. However, it is good note that she seems to take care of other dogs at the same time as far as I could ascertain … also, she has a very friendly golden retriever, which is good. My main tip to her is that she should take more videos and photos throughout the day of the babysat dog and interactions with her other dogs. Regardless of all the points mentioned above, the service isgenerally high quality. We would book her again.”

They kept us updated every day with photos and videos, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. When we got him back, it was clear he had been well cared for. He was clean, happy, and had clearly been eating well. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“I recently left my 3.5 year old Golden Retriever, Scotch, with Yoda for the first time, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Like any pet parent, I was a little nervous about leaving him somewhere new, but Yoda quickly put my mind at ease. She was warm, communicative, and experienced with dogs. Throughout Scotch’s stay, she kept me updated with photos and messages, which meant the world to me. Most importantly, when I picked him up, he was calm, happy, and very comfortable, something that said more than words ever could. It’s such a relief to know I have someone I can trust with Scotch. I will be booking with Yoda again in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and responsible sitter!”

“I couldn’t have been happier with Sully’s stay! Leslie and her husband were both so kind and took such wonderful care of him, which made leaving my little guy for the week so much easier. I really appreciated the updates and could tell Sully was happy, comfortable and very well loved while he was there. I’m so grateful to have found them and would absolutely leave Sully with them again! 🤍”

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your postal code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighbourhood.

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

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 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.

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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
