“This was our 4th time leaving Rio with them, and it honestly just keeps getting easier every time. They always send updates, photos, and little messages, which means a lot and helps us relax while we’re away. What really stands out is how much they genuinely care Rio always looks like he’s having the best time, not just being looked after. It’s such a nice feeling knowing he’s happy and comfortable with them. We always come back to a calm, happy dog, and that says everything. Really grateful to have found someone we trust with Rio!”
“Caroline is the best. She loves my dog, who loves her and her dog too. Simber races to greet her, and runs into her house when we arrive. It's so reassuring to know that my dog is having a wonderful time, when I am gone.”
“Yuxi was an excellent dog sitter! My dog, Miku, stayed with her for a day, and Yuxi went above and beyond to ensure we were worry-free. She regularly updated us with lots of photos and videos, which gave us peace of mind. Yuxi was responsible, caring, and attentive to Miku's needs. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter!”

“Patricia is such a sweet and caring person who is very accommodating. Our puppy Pebbles has been taken great care of and I really appreciated all the video and picture updates Patricia sent us. I am especially impressed with how Patricia and her family treated Pebbles like one of their own fur babies. This was the second time I used Patricia (a day visit that was kind of last minute and an overnight stay) and I will absolutely rebook with her again. She is super flexible and calm and it's obvious how much she loves animals.”

“We are so grateful to have found such a wonderful cat sitter! Our Ghibli stayed at her house, and it was clear from the start that he was in loving and capable hands. She made sure he was comfortable, happy, and well cared for, and her home provided a warm and welcoming environment. When we picked Ghibli up, he was relaxed and content, which speaks volumes about the care he received. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience—thank you for treating our fur baby like your own!”

Would hire them to sit him again in the future.”

Amy has been extremely patient and sweet with my pupper who usually takes a couple of days to settle in. We got daily updates and ton of photos and videos. I can tell that my Chocolate has been taken care of really well and was in safest hands when we weren't around. I would definitely reach out to Amy again for any future requests!
Brenda gave me such peace of mind while I was on vacation. She is a caring person who followed all my instructions regarding my dog's care. She was attentive and used good judgment to deal with a recurring medical issue that came up during my dog's stay with her. She sent me regular updates and Stella seemed happy and well take care of when I picked her up. Thank you Brenda!
This was our second time using them, and once again they were amazing with Sushi. Sushi clearly loves spending time with them, and we know he’s in great hands whenever we’re away. It’s such a relief to have someone we completely trust with our dog. They’ve truly become Sushi’s second family. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️
Luqi was amazing with Indy! She cared for him for the entire day and kept me updated regularly with photos and messages. Knowing how he was doing throughout the day made me feel completely at ease. Indy looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Thank you for treating him like your own. I would definitely book again and highly recommend Luqi to other pet parents.
This is the first time I left Milo with any dog sitter. From the initial visit, I knew that Milo will be in good hands with Nikita and her husband. Milo felt comfortable with them from the time I left him. Thank you so much for taking care of Milo. If Milo is happy, I am happy myself ❤️❤️
Amazing! They took such great care of my puppy overnight and kept me updated the whole time. Both of them are super kind, caring and overall just great people. Their communication made me feel reassured and relaxed, knowing my dog was in such good hands. I will absolutely be using them again. Highly recommend!
Rajathy was great, very accommodating with my last minute request. My dog is pretty anxious around new people but he warmed up to Rajathy very quickly. She was also sending me updates a couple of times per day which helped me not to stress to much. Highly recommend 😊
Divya did a great job looking after my Kaeidy(shitzu). She took care of Kaeidy so well that Kaeidy was very comfortable with her, her family and her pet, Whiskey ( poodle). We really appreciate the attention given to Kaeidy and we are looking forward to rebook Diviya for our future pet sittings. Kaeidy enjoyed the daily walks outside with Divya. I enjoyed receiving daily videos and photos from Divya on Kaeidy. Great work Divya. Thank you deeply from our hearts.
this is our second time to book the boarding in Molly family. Molly mom sent us cute pic and video every day and also cook salmon and chicken food for chow chow. Chow chow love them so much! I can tell from her lovely smell. Molly is a nice kitty. They have became a best fur friend.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Scarborough on Rover is $48.71 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Scarborough home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- 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 Scarborough
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. On Rover:
- 82% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 86% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
