“We booked Jasmine to house sit our pup Lenny while we were on holidays for a week. Jasmine was very professional during the booking process, very kind during our initial meet and greet and provided regular updates with pictures throughout our time away. I felt confident that Lenny was in good hands while we were away, which was reassuring. She left the house in great condition as well! Would recommend Jasmine and will use her for future bookings!”
“Nathaniel was so great. He stayed at our house with our anxious dog for a week and was able to build a good relationship with her. He followed our scheduled, gave her lots of exercise, and took great care of our house. He even went above and beyond ensuring that our house remained "viewing ready" as it was for sale while he was there. We are really happy with Nathaniel and his care of our little girl and home. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great pet/home sitter.”
“Ana took such an amazing care of our little Luna! While we were away to Mexico for a family vacation, Ana made sure to let us know how Luna was doing and shared photos of her which we appreciated much. We would love a future sitting with Ana’s family!”
“Winter is super-sweet and took really good care of my cat and dog. My home was tidy when I arrived home. She kept me updated about my "kids" and did a great job for a long stay. I'd happily book with her again!”
About: I have had pets my entire life, ranging from cats and dogs to pygmy goats! I have experience with a wide variety of pets with different personalities and I love getting to see all their different little quirks and learning how to care for them! I am a university student and I work Monday and Thursday evenings. I have most evenings and the weekends to care for and spend time with your pets! I always try to enter the situation with a warm and kind energy but I also always focus on them and their needs and watch for signs of discomfort and anxiety from them. If the animals do show signs of distress I will always keep my distance and let them come to me when they are ready! I always try and predict and watch for their needs so they can receive the care they need whenever.
About: I babysat my neighbor's bigger dog at the age of 12 and then my aunt's puppy in it's earlier months as she was at work. :) I regularly spend time outdoors on walks, working out, at the park and more, so I believe incorporating this service will be the perfect transition towards a profession, as spending time outdoors is a major part of my lifestyle. I believe communication is the biggest thing when undertaking such a real responsibility, so in order to prepare for this I like to ensure everything is clear by using my personal checklist. The best way to ensure safety and trust is clear communication and patience. I want to ensure the dog is comfortable and aware of their surroundings.
“We were so thankful to have Ava housesit our dog Buddy and cat Bear while we were away for a few days! She was very kind, her communication was excellent, and she obviously cares a lot about animals and making your pets feel loved. Will absolutely book her again and would recommend her to anyone else!”
“10/10!! Highly recommend Niki for any pet needs, but having her for our first overnight was best case scenario! She was available last minute, extremely thorough and even more friendly! She made getting away and enjoying the weekend extremely care-free. Went above and beyond not only with the care of the pets, but also our home.”
“Cassidy looked after our cat Bagheera while we were away on vacation. Bagheera is typically nervous around new people but warmed up to her right away! Cassidy was very professional, honest, and communicative before and during the house sitting visit which made the experience very comfortable for us! Will definitely rebook :)”
About: We bred dogs in our family home growing up. I’m comfortable with all ages, sizes and breeds of dogs. I’ve always lived with a dog and dogs are naturally drawn toward me! I’m available during the day, evenings and anytime on the weekends! (Excluding Monday evening, Tuesday mornings and Thursdays mornings). Please reach out so we can organize and look at both of our calendars! Each animal requires a unique style of care. I care for my pets closely around their personality and most importantly I make exercise, mental stimulation and affection a priority. As well as quality nutrition. I prefer to shy away from unhealthy treats as I value the longevity and health of my pet companions!
About: I am Sim, lover of all pets, young and old, big and small. I have had pets since I was 5 years old and I am a mommy to my Labrador. I am sure I will pamper your pooch. Any specific requests for them? Let me know! I allow them on my couch, unless you prefer them not to. I always keep the water bowl full and pets happy and healthy. I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I am currently working casual, so your baby will get non stop attention. Consistent walks, snuggles, and play sessions are the best way to soothe your fuzzy friend. I live in a house with a fenced yard and friendly neighbors! I also have a very welcoming dog who is going to be a great company for your little guy.
“We had booked Catherine in the past for drop-in visits when we had to leave home for a few days, and when we saw how well our grumpy cat did, we were confident that during our longer absence for an out-of-town wedding, Catherine would ensure that both our cats would get the love and care they needed. We were happy to see that through all the updates that we were sent, Catherine not only went above and beyond our expectations in caring for our two girls (one of which is very temperamental and territorial, and perpetually grumpy), but was even accept into our grumpy cat's "family" when she was presented with a gift from a hunt one evening. If you are ever concerned about your cat receiving the same quality of care you give to your most precious pets, you will be happy to know that Catherine will go above and beyond to not only care for your pets, but give them the attention and love they deserve. My wife and I joke that only true cat people can appreciate our old grumpy girl because she is not a typical cat that enjoys company, but we were surprised to see how relaxed she was around Catherine. I highly recommend Catherine, as she not only follows directions for care, but takes time to meet your pet where they are comfortable, and ensure their boundaries are understood and respected. If ever we are able to, we would give preference to use Catherine's services again in the future.”
“Dimitra was FABULOUS! We have never had someone outside of family watch our dog so of course we were super nervous. She cared for our dog and home as if it was her own and we came home to a super happy guy. We got picture update, saw them go on multiple walks and got pictures of them laying on the couch together. I couldn’t recommend her enough - we will 100% be contacting her next time we leave town.”
“Colby was absolutely amazing! She treated our two labby's like her own; cuddles, xtra pets, treatos, etc. She also kept in contact with me the whole time that we were gone; sent pics of the girls and cute texts. First time that we had not left them with family, and it was a great experience. Colby is officially our GO TO! Please hire her!!! (Just not when we need her, lol).”
About: I've been caring for my own dogs and cats since childhood, as well as sitting for friends and family over many years.

I'm a compassionate animal lover and am happiest when accompanied by a furry friend! I have full time availability and am ready and willing to accommodate your pet's schedule. Your pet is my first priority and my schedule will revolve around their needs. I am conscientious, trustworthy, and responsible. I will treat your pet and home with the utmost care and respect. Your furry friend will get lots of love and attention and your home can be entrusted to me with confidence.
“Little did we know when we left on the Friday of a long weekend that we were not only leaving Ankita to look after our dogs, but also to weather one of the biggest storms in Ottawa history and look after our home as well. We are beyond grateful for Ankita and her husband for making sure we came home from our trip to a clean house and well looked after pups. Thank you Ankita, we would happily have you stay at our home again.”

Robin did a fantastic job looking after my girls. She sent pictures every single day and also had a quick chat with me. The girls looked happy throughout my absence. Robin also left my home in perfect condition and even stripped the bed and put into the washer and dryer. I would not hesitate to have Robin stay with my girls again. Great job Robin.
Olivia was very professional. Easy to get along with. And most importantly did awesome with our mile long list of instructions we left. Also had to administer ear drops, and pills for our dog Haley. She took Haley for a walk. Not too mention went over and above, leaving our house VERY clean. Vacuumed, stripped the bed, kitchen was sparkling etc. HIGHLY recommend her services. We will definitely look her up before our next vacation!

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Silver Berry 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Silver Berry 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 Silver Berry 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, a background 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.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, your payment method is charged 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.
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 tips for your first Meet & Greet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
