“Ann was absolutely brilliant incredible. She put me and my husband at so much ease taking care of our senior dog. She also took such lovely care of our home! I definitely recommend!”
About: 🐾 Hi, I’m Kaelyn! 🐾 I’m a reliable and caring pet lover with experience caring for both dogs 🐶 and cats 🐱 of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. ❤️ When I’m not spending time with furry friends, I work full-time in finance 💼. My career has taught me the importance of responsibility, trustworthiness, attention to detail, and clear communication—qualities I bring to every pet I care for. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust, and I’ll treat your pets as if they were my own. 🦴🐾 I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. 📸💕 I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! 🐕🐈 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I work full-time in finance during regular business hours, so I’m available for morning, evening, and weekend walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I genuinely enjoy spending my free time with animals, and I make sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. When caring for a pet, I plan my schedule around their routine to ensure they’re fed on time, get plenty of bathroom breaks, exercise, playtime, and lots of affection. I only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to, so every pet receives the dependable, high-quality care they deserve. 🐾❤️ I believe every pet is happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, so I take the time to learn about each pet’s individual needs and preferences. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and mental stimulation throughout the day. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any house rules you’ve established. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, so I’m happy to adjust my care to match their energy level and comfort—whether that’s an adventurous walk, a game of fetch, or relaxing with lots of cuddles. Communication is important to me, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and messages while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved, while giving you complete peace of mind knowing they’re in caring and reliable hands. 🐾💕
“Bette Joe was a fantastic cat sitter! She took great care of my cat, kept in touch regularly, and sent adorable photo updates that really put my mind at ease. Her communication was clear and timely, and it was obvious she genuinely cared. Highly recommend!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve had cats my entire life and have experience raising and training a dog from puppyhood, so I’m comfortable with everything from playful puppies to older pets who need a little extra patience and care. I also have my RPN diploma and several years of experience working in healthcare, so I’m naturally very attentive, responsible and observant when it comes to someone’s wellbeing. I’m comfortable following routines, medications or special instructions provided by owners, and I take it seriously when someone trusts me with their pet. I’ve always had a natural connection with animals (and honestly, dogs and kids seem to find me wherever I go 😂). I’m calm, patient and affectionate, and I think animals pick up on that energy. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable and genuinely loved while you’re away. My schedule is very flexible because I work casually in healthcare, which means I choose and book my shifts ahead of time. This allows me to plan my pet-sitting commitments around my work schedule and offer a high level of availability. I’m able to accommodate a variety of schedules, including daytime care, walks, drop-ins and overnight stays. Once I commit to caring for a pet, I make sure they have my full attention and that their routine is maintained as closely as possible to what they’re used to at home. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable and genuinely happy. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or theirs, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible and make sure they get the right balance of exercise, stimulation, attention and downtime for their individual personality. I’m especially comfortable with high-energy and active dogs. My own dog was basically my four-legged training partner! We went running, swimming, played fetch with some seriously ambitious throws, and even played soccer and football together. 😂 I love giving energetic dogs the exercise and play they need, while also knowing when it’s time to slow down and relax. At home, I provide a clean, calm and pet-friendly environment with plenty of supervision, affection and room to play. When caring for pets in their own home, I’m respectful of their space and routines and make sure they receive consistent care and companionship. I take safety seriously and pay attention to changes in behaviour, appetite or overall wellbeing. I’m also happy to follow detailed instructions, including feeding schedules, medication and special-care needs. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel like they’re having their own little vacation while you’re away. 🐾
“Samantha took wonderful care of both our dog, Lindy, and our house. She responded quickly to messages and requests. Next time we need a dog sotter, we will book Samantha.”
About: Hi! I'm Shazmin. I believe animals are family, and I care for every companion with kindness, patience, and respect. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, and turtles, and I understand that each has unique needs and routines. Whether your companion needs exercise, enrichment, or a calm, reassuring presence, I'll provide thoughtful, reliable care so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away I've always had a special place in my heart for animals and love spending time outdoors. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, sniffing every tree along the way, or simply having a companion by their side, I'm here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind while providing every pup with the care, attention, and affection they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I take time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and needs so I can provide consistent, attentive care. During walks, I stay alert, use secure leashing at all times, and avoid unsafe situations. In a client’s home, I treat both your pet and your space with respect, carefully following all instructions for feeding, medication, and care. I also provide updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is a safe, calm, and positive experience for both pets and their owners.
“Vanessa stayed in my home and took care of my dog Ellie. Vanessa was professional, courteous and reliable in every interaction from the initial booking to checking in as she left. My dog who can be reactive with new people was instantly comfortable with her and was happy and calm when I returned home. My house was spotless. Vanessa is a wonderful and trustworthy pet sitter and overall just a lovely person. I highly recommend her and will rebook with her.”
“Selena was fantastic with Ozzy! Tending to his regular routine for the day and sending updates and pictures and videos. Ozzy and I are so thankful to have found you! Thank you Selena!”
About: I've cared for animals since I was a kid. From early morning walks to baths and meals, I have pet-sat for neighbours, friends and family for many years. Most recently I boarded a pet pig. I'm currently working as a freelancer remotely from my home. I am available any day or time of the week and can give your pet the care and attention it deserves. I have a spacious house and tree-lined yard - so location and timing are flexible. I have a car and will come to your residence if needed.
About: Ever since I was young I always loved animals, not only cats and dogs...but each and every animal I see around... I always communicate with them and give them as much as love as I can!! I'm currently enjoying my college life and being with pets gives me a plentiful worthy time to spend with these cuties.Even I have an innovative way of training puppies. I always try to maintain a safe environment for these fur babies and always use to clean and refill the empty bowls and never make them feel bored.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ramara
Ann was amazing! First time having a dog sitter stay overnight in my own home, my pup had just been neutered and she helped him feel comfortable and medicated while I was gone. Gave plenty of updates during the night and made sure I knew everything was going well! Could not recommend more! Thank you!
We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Ann. She was pleasant, reliable, and communicated frequently(with a lot of photos), which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She truly went above and beyond—our dog, Jake, was completely comfortable with her, which says everything about the care, love and attention she provided. On top of that, she left our home spotless. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely caring.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Ramara maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Ramara walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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 Ramara 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!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, a background check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
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.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
