About: I enjoy helping dogs stay comfortable and relaxed in their usual routine. I offer dependable walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and companionship with a calm, patient approach. I'm always happy to take dogs on long walks or play some fetch to help them run off some energy:) My schedule is flexible and I work from home frequently on week days so that makes it easy for me to pop over to people's places and check on their pets, feed them, drop in to administer medications or take them on a walk or play session. My home is better suited to cat clients who need somewhere else to stay while mom and dad are away:) I have large windows, a supervised balcony space, a lot of cat toys (including interactive toys) and puzzles, supplies like spare cat beds and scratching trees. And of course, they are always welcome on the furniture for cuddles when they're here:)
“I am avwry happy with Eunji. She's on time and sends lots of videos and photos and updates when she comes over. My dog Nigel loves her and I recommend Eunji to everyone who's looking for a dog sitter.”
“V was fantastic! She was reliable with excellent closed loop communication and I knew that our pup was well taken care of when she was around. She sent lots of pictures during the visit. She’s excellent. Would highly recommend!”
“Blayne was very professional and friendly. She sent many updates with pictures and videos of my cat Bravo after the visits, and allowed me to have a peaceful trip knowing Bravo was in good hands! Thank you so much Blayne.”
“I do not have enough positive things to say about our experience with Cynthia. Although new to the rover scene, her love of animals and attention to detail is so obvious. My guys immediately took to her upon first meeting - and I knew we had made the right choice! She truly went over and above to ensure that both our home and our precious kitties were safe and happy while away. I would not hesitate to recommend her in any capacity for your pet sitting needs 12 out of 10. Thank you, Cynthia!!!!!”
About: Hello,,,I am an experienced House & Pet Services provider with Cat and Dog First Aid Certification thru the Canadian Red Cross. I have just recently decided to take my calender online thru Rover. I tend to do most of my work on the Edmonton Southside but i am open to other areas for longer term bookings. Everyones needs are different and i can adjust pricing accordingly. Please get in touch to discuss. My services extend from home care with all age dog, cat, fish and birds. I work part-time via a dispatch system, I am in full control of my schedule and many of the shifts I accept I am only working 4 hours at a time so this leaves me lots of time to schedule in my Pet committments. Delivering the proper care and making sure your pets routines, boundaries, diets - all of it is best done by letting them remain in thier space. It’s really critical to me and so important to the pet that I know all the rules of the house and sometimes written words or notes on key items will help. Recordings from pet parents are an awesome tool that I strongly encourage. Recordings of instructions for me or if I find an anxious pet that is calmed by your voice it serves two important purposes,,,,we can dive into this after our meet and greet. Many homes now have security systems with cameras and I am totally comfortable with that,,,I work in Entertainment, with high profile Artists,,,Cameras and recordings are just a regular part of my day. I am flexible, easy to talk to, I am happy to keep records or send photos and can accommodate almost all scenarios, I love communicating, carry a mobile device with answering service for times if I’m backstage and can’t physically answer the phone I can always read and reply to messages. My schedule would always be discussed as well as any location or venue information in advance so that you can plan and decide if it works for you.

“Sam is an absolute angel! I needed someone to pet sit as I went away for my wedding and she made sure that during a time that could be stressful that I had everything I needed to make sure my cat was in the best care possible. Sam is an amazing communicator and does everything she can to make the pet sitting process efficient and easy. I’m so grateful for her!!!”
“Samana was so amazing with my 4 babies! She made me feel so reassured and sent me lots of photos and updates through her visit. If I were to leave my cats alone I’d always rebook with her, she’s also such a ray of sunshine!! If I could give her more than 5 stars I would!”

Sarah-Beth was a life saver and accommodated my last minute booking! Her communication was timely and she followed instructions for the home and pet care. She is an experienced sitter and helped me to feel reassured that my babies were in good hands! Would definitely book again :)
Kitty came to take care of Tiia while I was away for a short trip. Tiia was well taken care of. She was happy enjoying some play and brushing. Kitty kept me updated with photos and videos each day. You can tell that Tiia was progressively getting more comfortable with Kitty each day.
Kelly was fantastic! Came to meet Soup before hand to make sure they'd be a good match and asked lots of questions to make sure she could provide the best care. She showed up as scheduled every day and gave me plenty of updates. I was apprehensive leaving my cat for a week but Kelly made sure he and I were well taken care of.
This was my third time having Melissa check in on my kitties while I was out of town and she again was great! She follows instructions (they love to try and escape), sends updates every day and makes sure they are happy and fed. 10/10 would recommend. Thanks Melissa!!
Sherry provided excellent care for my cat and I always felt that she was being well loved in my absence. Sherry always sent lots of photos and videos with her updates. I wholeheartedly recommend Sherry if you're looking for someone to love your fur babies when you're away. 5 stars all the way!
We’ve had Miranda and Aaron as cat sitters a few times now, and they are always great—thoughtful and reliable, with cute updates and pics. They pay attention to the small details and personal preferences of our cats, and go above and beyond to take good care of them. We’ll definitely contact them again the next time we need a cat sitter. Thanks Miranda and Aaron!
Leeann was a great caregiver who arrived right on time for two visits per day with my cat. She showed genuine warmth, and followed all of his feeding and care routines precisely. She also administered his daily oral medication and sent me a daily update and picture. Thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Rideau Park is $24 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $36 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 1,150 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Rideau Park. About 88% 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.

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 Rideau Park 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 .
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 , 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 .
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, 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.
