“This was Danielle's first time looking after Maude "Maudie". I booked her early so I could go out and have dinner before going to an event. She arrived early and I was able to explain a few details about Maude. I told her that Maude was a sweet dog and loves cuddles. Maude has anxieties so finding someone to come and look after her at the house is a huge relief for her and me, as I know she's still in her environment. Danielle sent me a picture of Maude and her cuddling on the chair! 🥰 I had seen some previous reviews and I know I was in good hands! So far, I have booked three more dates with Danielle. I know Maude is looking forward to see her again next week! ❤️”
“We never used Rover before and needed someone to look after our puppy for a week in our home. We chose Riliegh to be our person because of all the great comments. Well we couldn't have asked for anyone better!!! Riliegh dropped by for a meet and greet. I knew right then so we booked her. I admit I was a bit nervous but after seeing pictures and getting updates I felt completely happy that she was in good hands. Our home was perfect when we got home and she stayed late as our flights were delayed. Mellow has a friend for life, her first sitter, we will ask Riliegh again. We can't thank her enough. Recommend 100%”
“We couldn't be happier with Danica! She was wonderful with Skye, and we especially appreciated that she wasn't deterred by Skye being a pitbull. Danica genuinely took the time to understand Skye's individual needs, which meant so much to us. Fantastic service!”
“This was our second time having Andrea and her husband stay at our house. We couldn't be happier with the love and care she gave our dog and also our house. Thanks again Andrea! :)”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! From the moment I met Kate, I felt completely at ease leaving my pup in her hands. She was attentive, kind, and clearly passionate about animals. Throughout the stay, she kept me updated with messages and photos, which really reassured me that my dog was happy and well cared for. When I came back, my dog was relaxed, healthy, and clearly had a great time. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I know that a home is not a home without a pet, and I understand that each pet has it's own personality that needs to be respected and supported. I will care for your fur baby like they are my own. I am currently lucky enough to work remotely, so I am available for check-ins and in-home care 7 days a week. As little or as much as your pets need. I believe a pet is happiest when it is in it's own space, so I will gladly care for your pet in your home. This will keep your pets stress level down when you are away.
About: I have had many different pets over the years, including small animals, reptiles, birds and fish, as well as some smaller farm animals and cats and dogs of course. I have spent a lot of time rescuing and rehabilitating them. I spend a lot of my free time reserching different husbandry ideas as well as following the story's from veterinarians. I went to University to study wildlife conservation but do to a car accident only completed the ecology portion. Bonus, I am very good with plants. I am currently unemployed due to the business I was working for shutting down, and so I have alot of free time. I will be looking for new employment and will update this once I have found something. I am very quiet and enjoy spending time at home. Even if I find a job I will still be available before and after work. I am very good at following instructions and sticking to a routine. I am used to doing morning and night time chores, be it feeding or walking or any other care animals may need. If certain animals require more i am happy to do so. I have taken care of many babies that needed feeding every 2 hours. I listen and pay attention to what pets are asking for.
About: I have two years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats at an animal shelter. My responsibilities included feeding, walking, cleaning kennels, monitoring behaviour, supporting medication routines, and caring for puppies, seniors, and nervous animals. I understand that every pet has a different personality, routine, and comfort level. My availability varies throughout the week, and I keep my Rover calendar updated so pet parents can see when I am available. I can provide scheduled walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I carefully follow each pet’s normal routine and communicate promptly if there are any changes or concerns.ɓ Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions carefully. Before each walk, I check the leash, collar, or harness and stay alert to traffic, unfamiliar animals, and escape risks. I maintain a clean environment, respect clients’ homes, and provide regular updates so owners know their pets are safe
“Christina was great, she left the house better than she found it and was very conscientious and responsive to messages. We had just the right amount of updates and she went above and beyond for the animals, treating them like her own family and loving on them. One of our dogs is particularly reactive and hard to deal with but she was a pro at handling him and keeping everyone happy, fed, cleaned and exercised. It was a relief not having to worry during our time away and we will definitely be booking again for the next trip!”
“Zakia was a very responsible, attentive, and kind dog sitter to our sweet Ruby. Knowing Ruby is an active small dog, Zakia took the time to take Ruby on her favourite walks and explored green spaces and trails. Zakia and her partner made sure to send plenty of pictures and videos of Ruby and asked questions to clarify about her care instructions. Ruby loves to cuddle and stay close to people and Zakia didn’t shy away from providing a lot of attention. Our house was also well looked after and in the same condition as we left it——so nice to return to after being away for a week. I highly recommend considering Zakia as a dog sitter/house sitter for your loved pet.”
“After a cancellation we were able to find Bev to come and take care of our furry family over the Christmas holiday. We were a little worried where this was our first big trip away from the dogs and leaving them with a total stranger. We were able to meet a couple times before leaving and Otis and Luna warmed up very quickly. Bev checked in with us regularly and kept us updated. I would highly recommend Bev to anyone looking for a sitter.”
About: I bring several years of pet sitting experience, including caring for multi- animal homes with four cats, a dog and even chickens. I’m comfortable managing detailed routines and making sure each pet receives individual attention. I have some experience administering medications (mainly in dogs), which makes me confident with senior pets and animals who require structured medical care. Having grown up around both household pets and farm animals, I’m comfortable with animals of all sizes and temperaments. My experience is wide but my approach is the same- I treat every pet like they were my own. I work full-time in Wallace, with most weekends off, which gives me great availability for pet care during evenings and most weekends. While my apartment unfortunately doesn’t allow pets for boarding, I’m happy to provide care in your home anywhere from Wallace to the Amherst area. I’m also available for check-ins before and after work, though daytime visits are limited unless you’re located close to Wallace. I treat your home & pets as my own, following routines closely and keeping them safe and happy, and loved while getting plenty of attention and exercise.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Shediac
Kaelyn was a very responsible and caring sitter. My younger dog has minor anxiety and during initial contact she was very comfortable with her. She provided me with photos and updates of the pets and left my home clean, tidy and organized. The dogs enjoyed a walk with her and definitely enjoyed their time with her overall. I would highly recommend Kaelyn as a pet sitter and wouldn't hesitate to ask her to sit again in an overnight situation.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Shediac on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Shediac 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.
Tip: 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 Shediac 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 Shediac 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, identity 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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
