“My 12 year old mini-whippet received lots of attention and love and comfort staying with Kristen on her small farm. Her other pets (and the occasional barn cat or chicken) are friendly and healthy as well. My wife and I will definitely be trusting her again to watch Marko if she is available.”
“Our Ziibiis was happy to come home and we felt very at ease with Melissa. She was very up to date, welcoming in her own and the family made Ziibiis very comfortable with lots of snuggles”
“Trisha was amazing! I reached out very last minute for a booking and she was able to accommodate us so willingly! She had our dog for two nights. I received several pictures and updates throughout the weekend. Trisha was very attentive. She had a fenced in yard that put me at ease while my dog was somewhere new. I would highly recommend Trisha to anyone needing her services!”
“Jessica welcomed our dog Shanti into her home and her family! I can't say how grateful we are that we chose Jessica as a dog sitter. Lots of excellent communication and we could tell Shanti had a fantastic time while we were away. My mind was at ease knowing she was well taken care of. Thank you, we will be contacting you again when we need a sitter!”
About: I have had animals my entire life. I could not imagine a house without the energy and love of pets. I love to walk and run with my dogs, but my animals are not able lot join me anymore at this time. I enjoy walking dogs and would like to make it into a little hobby. I love to run and have a furry companion. Available for runs, with dogs that would do well off leash and not reactive to other dogs. I work full time but two days a week I work from home. On those days I could fit a west end walk in on my lunch. I am available in many evenings and weekends. I have a fenced in backyard. I will walk on leash and ensure safety at all times. Please let me know if there are any safety issues I should be aware of, such as a habit of running away.

Melissa is so accommodating and takes excellent care of our Frankie. Frankie enjoys spending time with her and their family but especially with Harry who will play tug of war with her. A great environment for our dog with a fenced in backyard that Frankie loves!!
Kelly is amazing. She spent the whole day with my beagle, who has separation anxiety, while my husband and i went on the Agawa Canyon train tour. Returned to one very happy beagle. We love the area, so we will for sure be utilizing her services again. Thanks Kelly. 😊
Fantastic Pet Sitting Experience! I couldn’t be happier with the care our Maggie received from Sophie and Alex! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in great hands. We got regular updates, and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She came home happy, and clearly well loved. This was our very first experience with a dog sitter and we are so happy with our choice. Thank you Sophie and Alex!

- 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 Sault Ste. Marie
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 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.
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 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.
