“Highly recommend Christina! She did an outstanding job taking care of our 2 cats. One of our cats is very shy and quite bonded to me and normally hides when someone visits. Christina gained her trust and she became quite friendly with Christina! Both cats enjoyed Christina's company. Christina was always quick to respond to texts and prompt in sending daily texts including photos of our furry kids.Everything was left neat and tidy and clean. She definitely went way beyond our expectations! Hope to engage her excellent services next time we go on vacation.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats of all kinds since I was young, and friends, family, and clients have trusted me with their pets for years. I’m calm, observant, and patient, which helps animals feel safe quickly. I’m comfortable with different temperaments, routines, and special needs, including anxious or reactive dogs, senior pets, medication schedules, and maintaining structure. I treat every pet as if they’re my own and prioritize safety, consistency, and genuine care I have a very flexible schedule and can make sure to be able to give every pet the time and attention they need. I can check in on break or for scheduled breaks etc. I have a fenced yard and occasionally have my boy Duke with me he is a very kind dog. I go on lots of walks and hikes and will follow any schedule your dog may need. I am familiar with medication schedules and dietary restrictions as well
About: I have always been involved in pet care. When I was younger I worked in the pet care section of pet smart and now I work at a pet boarding hotel! I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified. I have 2 dogs and a fish, and have previously owned Guinea pigs, cats, hamsters, and birds! I am currently working part time at a boarding hotel and volunteering at a veterinary clinic which means I have tons of time to spend with your fur babies!! My visits will be specialized to whatever you need! Whether that’s increased activity by going on more walks or lounging on the couch cuddling!! Everything will be according to what your pet wants.
About: What sets me apart is my experience working with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities through rescue. I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs and those needing extra patience or medical attention. I also trained puppies for Autism Dog Services, helping build strong foundations in obedience and confidence, and worked as a veterinary assistant for two years, giving me valuable knowledge of animal health, behavior, and recognizing when something isn’t quite right. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I currently work from home, so your animals needs will be met all day. I have a flexible schedule so even if you are crate training or socializing, I’m able to come and go as I please. My home is thoughtfully set up to meet the needs of dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As an active foster, I have a variety of tools and equipment to ensure every dog feels safe and comfortable, including a fenced yard, crates (when appropriate), x-pens, and separate areas throughout the home. If I have a foster dog during your pet’s stay, I can easily provide each dog with their own dedicated space to ensure an stress-free environment. I prioritize one-on-one attention, individualized care, positive reinforcement training, and safe socialization based on each dog’s comfort level and needs.

About: I grew up surrounded by animals! One of my earliest “jobs” was pet sitting for friends and family, whether walking dogs while they were at work or housesitting for dogs and cats alike. I create my own schedule which means my availability is quite flexible! I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups or hang out with your kittens! I’m happy to provide home visits for play dates and walks, but open to bringing pets to my place as needed. I’m certified in Animal Care from the Uni, as well as CPR, First Aid etc, and I have an educational background in Biology with classes such as Animal Behavior.
“Eva was wonderful with our 2 cats while we were away. Giving our one guy insulin shots was no problem. The cats seemed very happy, healthy and clean when we came home...would be happy to have her watch the cats again in future.”

About: I recently graduated with an MSc in Animal Biosciences from the University of Guelph, with hands-on experience in animal care, behaviour, nutrition, and welfare. I’m especially good at reading animal body language, caring for shy or nervous pets, and following detailed feeding and care routines. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Since I recently graduated, I currently have a flexible schedule and can easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and regular care throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. I always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and keeping pets comfortable in their usual environment. I have hands on experience caring for cats through university animal care work, including feeding routines and monitoring behaviour. I will carefully follow any instructions provided and keep owners updated with messages and photos.
About: I've owned pets for years, including several cats and a small Shih Tzu, so I'm comfortable with both cats and dogs, especially small and medium breeds. Caring for my own pets taught me the everyday essentials: consistent feeding routines, leash walking, cleaning up, and noticing changes in a pet's mood, appetite, or health. I'm patient with shy or anxious animals and always follow each owner's routine closely, because I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and relaxed. I'm a full-time graduate student at the University of Guelph, so my schedule is organized around my classes. I'm usually available on weekends and on weekday evenings, and I plan my week in advance so I can give every pet reliable, consistent care. For House Sitting, I'll be at your home overnight and will return between classes whenever possible for feeding, play, and potty breaks. I provide care in your home, where your pet feels most comfortable. I follow your routine exactly, including feeding times, walks, medication, and house rules, and I'll ask about any off-limits areas during our Meet & Greet. I always keep doors and gates secured, use a leash on every walk, and never let dogs off-leash in unfenced areas. I'll send you regular photo updates through the Rover app, and I'll look after your home as carefully as your pet by bringing in mail, watering plants if needed, and locking up whenever I leave.

About: I’ve been lucky enough to share my life with pets for many years: a rabbit for 7 years, a bulldog for 14 years, and a cane corso for 9 years. Sadly, all of my beloved pets have now passed on, leaving me with lots of extra time and plenty of love to give. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets and give them the same patience, attention, and affection I gave my own. With years of hands-on experience, you can feel confident knowing your pets are in caring and capable hands. I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule. I have the flexibility to give pets plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Since I’m home most of the time, I can also be flexible with different schedules and routines. I am able to follow any special instructions or rules the owner has set out when caring for pets in their own homes. Safety is very important and some pets may require extra attention or more guidelines than others.
About: For 15 years, I have worked as a trusted elementary school teacher who cares deeply for my young students. I have also been relied upon for pet-sitting and dog-walking for a number of families for many years. Feeding, playing, exercising, cleaning, caring for all pets' needs. I am returning to my full time teaching job in September, which fills my days from 8 to 4, but I am fully available for overnight pet and house-sitting, as well as fully available on weekends! I ensure my own pets are comfortable and well cared for. When I stay in others' homes, I follow pets' routines and meet their needs.

“Ciara went above and beyond with our elderly cats. Between the many prescribed diets + medications I was very choosy about who could look after them. We came back to haooy, healthy cats, she even took the time to wash used food dishes + clean litter boxes. The daily photo updates and info on days the eldest did or did not have meds was helpful to have as well.”

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my entire life and currently share my home with two wonderful rescue dogs, Otto and Snoopy, who have taught me even more about patience, trust, and unconditional love. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, reinforcing routines, providing enrichment, and making sure every visit is tailored to your dog’s individual needs. Safety, communication, and reliability are my top priorities, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. My promise is simple: every dog I care for will be treated like family, every single visit. Hi, I’m Tracy!

I treat every dog with the same patience, kindness, and respect that I give my own. When your dog is in my care, you can expect dependable service, clear communication, and plenty of love and attention. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, reinforce your dog’s normal routine, ensure they have fresh water after their walk, and send you photo updates and a detailed Rover Card so you always know how their visit went. Although I’m new to Rover, I’m committed to providing exceptional care from day one and earning your trust through reliability, professionalism, and genuine compassion. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away.

About: I have many years of animal care experience, including 4 years of experience working with farm animals! I have many years of volunteer experience working in animal care (shelters, pet sitting, and at a veterinary clinic). I truly have a passion for animals of all kind. I have a dog of my own named Lewis and I’ve had many other animals before moving from BC to Ontario! I currently work Sunday to Thursday from 8-4 as an Animal Care Attendant. I am happy to be there for your pet in the morning, evening and night. I provide lots of love, patience and understanding that meeting a new person/having a new person in your space can be nerve wracking. I will provide updates and photos throughout the time spent with your pet!
About: What sets me apart from the rest other sitters is that I have experience with dogs that have high energy as well as low energy. Some of them need to get their exercises as early as dawn, and I am able to keep up with them. I have experience in walking, feeding and bathing dogs. I am currently working during the month of July and my schedule fluctuates a lot, so it would be best to get in contact with me for the month of July. In august however I am available pretty much available every day of the month. While taking care of other peoples pets it’s very important to make sure that the house is as the owner has left it. Cleaning up after the animal and feeding it is an obvious necessity, as well as showering it with affection and providing it with any exercise that he/ she needs :)

In her spare time she has worked at an Animal Rehab Clinic where physical treatment, hydrotherapy and laser therapy was performed on pets. Alex is an experienced animal handler who currently owns one dog. I am a part time pet boarder and dog walker. I also provide day care services in Halton & Peel Region.

About: I have always been extremely passionate about caring for animals and have pet care experience through helping friends and family. I find genuine excitement in meeting new pets and being able to help others. Although I do not have a dog of my own, I do have a bunny that I have taken care of for the past 9 years and he means the world to me, so I have a great understanding of how these fur babies are much more than just pets. I am currently working part-time and do school online, so I have a very flexible schedule. I thrive in settings that may require adapting, and I am the kind of person to focus on my task at hand. I have relatively free mornings, where I enjoy being the most productive, but most importantly I am always willing to accommodate other people’s schedule when possible! When I care for pets, the most important factors to me are the pet’s safety and the owner’s boundaries. I find it very important that the pet is visibly content and safe, and if any issues were to occur, I understand the boundaries as a sitter. I care for and respect all pets the way I would hope a sitter would treat and respect my pet and routines.
“Emma was great! She was available with very short notice and communicated throughout. I was in a bind and she saved the day. Highly recommend and will definitely use her in the future!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Puslinch is $11 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $23 per visit. 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.
There are 2,737 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Puslinch. About 86% of Puslinch sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:
- Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
- House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
- Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.
Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Puslinch choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, your payment method is charged at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
