“Andrea made everything easy from start to finish. Communication was quick, clear, and effortless, which gave me confidence throughout the process. She was professional, reliable, and I never had any concerns about leaving my dog in her care. It was clear that she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. I would not hesitate to book with her again.”
“Anna made the experience effortless and my dog Coda was spoiled with her. She did more than what I could’ve asked for, such as walks, snacks and a lot of play time and naps ☺️”
“Thank you so much for looking after our little pup. She was very happy to be in your home. We appreciated the updates, and the photos. Your communication was top-notch. Loki was sound asleep when we picked her up so obviously she was comfortable in your home. Thank you again.”
“Opie had such a great time at Nicole's that he didn't want to leave! She has a massive backyard for Opie to run with the other pups to burn off that energy. Was also sent many pictures and videos of Opie having fun. Would highly recommend Nicole as your dog-sitter.”
“Ana is a complete lifesaver. We had major renovations start in our home earlier than expected and my dog is 14 years old this month. No way I could leave hom at home with strangers making sounds at all hours of the day! She was able to take him in last minute, and provided many updates, photos, and videos throughout the day. Honestly, he is so excited to go he screams when he knows we are almost there. She takes better care of him that I probably do. I highly recommend Ana. She is really nice, takes great care of animals, and clearly loves them. Even my old mop of a boy.”
“Nacho seemed very comfortable at Iren’s and although we don’t expect walks, especially once it’s -10 or colder, it was nice enough out to head out for 2, and I’m sure that made Nacho happy and not so bored. Thank you Iren!”
About: Throughout 19 years of my life i’ve grown up with 4 Maltese dogs who i love dearly and now are back home, so I have experience training and taking care of them I love dogs due to their unique nature and loving personality and I would love to be able to take care of them in my free time. I’m a full time student, my availability is flexible so I’ll free up my time based on the booking although my school schedule I am unavailable 11-12pm everyday except weekends. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment for pets in my apartment. I make sure pets are always supervised, comfortable, and stick to their usual routines for feeding, walks, and playtime. I take dogs out for regular walks and bathroom breaks and keep the space tidy and pet-friendly. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs and can follow any specific care instructions provided by the owner. In a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain their pet’s routine to ensure they feel secure and stress free
“Finley had such an amazing day! Marie is wonderful. She took such good care of our pup on his 1st day in the dayhome. She sends videos and photos and is always watching the dogs she is caring for. We are so thankful! Best choice we ever made!”
“This was Pandas second visit and she was beyond excited when we got there! Once again we picked up a calm Panda which would not have been the case if she stayed home alone!”
“Alex was a very patient and kind caregiver for our miniature dachshund Maxx. Alex took many photos while taking care of Maxx, so we could see what Maxx was doing during his stays. By Maxx's second visit, he had settled in quite well with Alex and his dog and he seemed very happy to be there. We will definitely request more daycare with Alex soon!”
“Jill is amazing! She is very observant and knows Raven well: tells us all the details in the Rover cards and is an exceptional photographer (love the giggle fest pictures!) thanks for everything !!”
“Thank you for taking care of Kai. The regular communication and timely updates helped me remain in touch without being physically present—I really appreciated that. :)”
“Very professional and kept me up to date through the sitting. I was able to book with short notice and felt comfortable after a short meet and greet. Khushboo made everything easy and friendly.”
“Sunny and Jessica are so amazing! They are warm and inviting; our puppy absolutely loves them! We love how they interact with our puppy and love how they send updates during the day. We haves recommended them to everyone!!”
About: I own a pitbull chocolate lab mix, hes a rescue and is my joy in life. I've taught him manners and made him many friends, he and I are always in the market for new dog friends! I own a dog so walks daily lots of snuggles and bring him to see his friends almost daily. And the park as often as possible. I live in a house with my dog, we hangout outside, go for walks, the park, and we play outback in the yard, and wrestling, sometimes ice cream treats on hot days!
“Rufana was amazing with Dante! It was our first time with her and I really appreciate all her patience with our dog and us, she was available right away that day and saved our trip to Sylvan Lake. Thanks Rufana!”
“Brenda was very detailed and meticulous when Oskar and I visited her for Oskar's first "doggy day care." She was very much aware of his presence, wanting to put him at ease on his first visit. It was comforting to hear that she already had the day planned out spending time with Oskar. Oskar was a bit nervous and some anxiety as I left him in Brenda's care. When I picked him up, Oskar was completely at ease and his usually joyfulness, it was like he found a second home. Brenda made his stay joyful, playful; I will most likely rebook with her and recommend her to others.”
“So awesome with my dog Ava. Their relaxed energy really helped me to feel good leaving Ava for the day and certainly helped Ava feel relaxed too. Thank you for proving great care!”

Keith is an amazing dog sitter! He is trustworthy, reliable and has good communication. He watched our pup for the day and gave us regular updates with pictures and videos (which we absolutely loved!). It was easy to communicate with him and he is professional and I can tell he loves dogs and cares for them well. Brownie was a happy pup when I picked him up and I'm sure he's looking forward to his next visit with Keith! I would highly recommend Keith for dog sitting!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Rideau Park on Rover is $31.08 per day (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 392 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Rideau Park. About 90% of Rideau Park 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.
Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's leash and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalized care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Rideau Park commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in AB ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
