“Great experience, Rita was very accommodating to our dog. Specially our dog is a rescue and needs some time to get to know the person. Rita made it easy and our dog has warmed up faster than we thought!”
“She was amazing and I’ll always come to her if I need someone to take care of Maverick. She made sure my puppy who is 5 months was introduced to the other dogs slowly and comfortably. She sent me many updates, photos and videos. I had someone cancel on me last minute and she responds right away. I’m very happy and recommend her to anyone using this app! She also has a lot of availability, flexibility, a yard and ensures the puppies needs are being met. She made sure all my questions were answered and that I was confident to put Maverick in her care!”
“Diana was fantastic with accommodating my senior dog, and welcomed her into her loving home. This service is lucky to have her, and I am fortunate to have found her. Highly recommend.”
“Shakira took such great care of my puppy! She gave tons of love, and kept me updated with cute pics. My pup was happy and well taken care of the whole time. When Bruce came home he was sweet and sleepy boy! Definitely will be coming back to Shakira for future dog care!”
About: Every dog is different. I take time to understand your dog’s personality, energy level, diet, medical needs, and routines — so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I work from home and mostly available weekdays and weekends. Your dog will get my undivided attention and his safety is my top most priority I have a very big fenced yard and my dog will be there to accompany and play with your dog. We have bunch of toys in our backyard
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them brings me so much joy. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. I believe every dog has their own personality and needs, and I love getting to know each one individually. My home is a calm and pet-friendly space, and I treat every dog that visits like family. I also understand how hard it can be to leave your pet in someone else’s care, which is why I make communication a top priority. I’m always happy to send photos and updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. As a full-time stay-at-home wife, I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day to care for your pup. Whether it’s a midday walk, or last-minute drop-ins, I’m here to help. I’m home most of the time, which means your dog will get lots of attention, interaction, and supervision—no long stretches alone. We have a friendly puppy of our own who loves to make new doggy friends! It’s a great environment for dogs who enjoy socializing and playing with others. I keep a calm, structured home where pets can feel safe and loved, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific routine or needs. Because I’m always nearby, I can give frequent potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles. I also provide quick responses and regular photo updates to keep you in the loop. My goal is to make you and your pet feel as comfortable and cared for as possible! I live in an house and go for daily walks, I also go across the road to a fairground to let my pup run around when we aren’t playing in our backyard!
“Felix had a great day with Jennifer's family! At our pre-booking visit I was immediately struck by Jennifer's warm and relaxed nature, and felt confident that Felix would be well cared for. She provides a wonderful service and was professional and flexible. She sent some photos during the visit as well. I will definitely book with her again!”
“My girl Daisy is a beagle who loves to chase anything that moves! Kollin and Emmalee have an older precious kitty who I had some concerns about. Kollin was receptive to having Daisy stay, and not 10 minutes after I dropped Daisy off, I received a video of their first meeting, which was a huge success. I very much appreciate that as it made my trip so much more enjoyable. I could tell during our initial Meet and Greet we had found not just a safe place, but a fun one. Daisy was in great hands with Kollin, and Emmalee, and we will definitely become repeat visitors!”
“This was our first experience using Rover and we can’t be happier with Angela and Luis. They made me feel reassured with lots of pictures and updates throughout the day and I was happy to pick up a tired and happy puppy at the end of the day! They are so kind and understanding and I hope they’ll watch Henry again :)”
“My dog, Enzo, had a great day of daycare while I was away. Alexandria was even able to make things work for me on short notice, which was very appreciated. I’ll certainly use her services again in the future.”
“Nayeli was amazing with our little fur baby. He had lots of fun and eat well. I will definitely be booking with Nayeli again. Nayeli provided pictures and updates of our little one. She is awesome”
“My experience with Smita was amazing! We had a 13-year-old lab that was very well taken care of. I loved the updates and pics that Smita sent me. We will contact her again, for sure. 🧡🐶”
“Bee had lots of fun with Avijeet and Leo! Avijeet's dog Leo was very friendly and respectful, but energetic and playful enough to tire Bee out throughout the day. Bee came home happy and sleepy and she clearly enjoyed her time there. Thanks Avijeet!”
About: I offer safe, loving in-home boarding in a calm environment with a secure backyard for supervised play. I have two friendly dogs, a mini poodle and a bichon, who are well socialized and gentle with other dogs. I keep routines consistent with regular walks, feeding schedules, and lots of attention so your dog feels comfortable and cared for. My home is clean, structured, and designed to be a relaxed home away from home. If you’d like it a little more playful or a little more premium, I can adjust the tone for you 😊 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already care for my own two dogs. I plan my mornings and evenings around walks, feeding times, and play sessions, and I’m used to maintaining consistent schedules. I work in a structured way, so I can easily incorporate drop-ins, walks, or overnight care while ensuring each dog receives focused attention and companionship. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, I maintain a clean, calm, and secure environment where pets are supervised and never left in unsafe situations. I follow each pet’s feeding, walking, and medication instructions carefully and keep routines consistent to reduce stress. In a client’s home, I respect their space, maintain clear communication, and provide updates for peace of mind. I treat every pet as if they were my own — with patience, attentiveness, and genuine care.
About: Caring for dogs is more than a task—it’s a joy, a responsibility, and a love I carry in my heart every day. I understand that dogs are not just pets—they are family, companions, and a source of unconditional love. Leaving them behind can be hard, and that’s why I dedicate myself to making every dog feel safe, cherished, and truly at home. In our home, your dog will never feel alone. With me and my two boys, Evan and Aram, your dog will be welcomed with warmth, gentle attention, and endless love. My boys adore animals, and together we create a home full of laughter, play, and tender care where every dog feels seen, valued, and comforted.

Your dog will not simply be watched—they will be included in our lives, treated like a beloved member of the family. I focus on: • Listening to their needs, understanding their moods, and giving love in exactly the way they need it • Following their daily routines to provide consistency and comfort • Creating a calm, safe space where they can be happy, relaxed, and loved • Offering endless cuddles, play, and bonding moments Our home is designed for your dog’s happiness and safety: • A large, fully fenced backyard where they can run, explore, and play freely • Indoor comfort where dogs are always welcome on furniture and beds, giving them warmth and closeness • A loving, family environment filled with patience, attention, and understanding I know leaving your dog in someone else’s care is a leap of trust.

In our home, caring for your furry family members is seamlessly woven into our daily routine, so they always feel safe, happy, and loved. A typical day with your pet includes: • Morning cuddles & care: Greeting pets with love, feeding, and letting them stretch and play after waking • Playtime & exercise: Dogs enjoy walks in the yard or around the neighborhood, while cats get cozy play sessions or window-watching time • Quiet & rest periods: Calm, peaceful time for napping, grooming, or simply feeling safe and comfortable • Attention & bonding: Evan and Aram love spending time with pets, giving gentle hugs, brushing fur, or playing interactive games • Meals & health check: Following your pet’s feeding schedule, keeping litter boxes fresh, and checking for any signs of discomfort or illness • Evening relaxation: Cozy snuggles, calm interaction, and pets are always welcome on furniture or beds for comfort and security I adjust our routine to fit your pet’s specific needs, so they feel at home whether they’re active, playful, or need extra calm time. Consistency, patience, and gentle attention are at the heart of every day. Because to me, pet care isn’t just something I do—it’s part of our family life, and your pet becomes part of it too. ❤️ The safety and comfort of your pets is my top priority. I understand that leaving your furry family members behind can be stressful, so I create an environment where they feel safe, loved, and completely at home—whether in my home or theirs. In our home, pets enjoy: • A large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can run, play, and explore safely • Plenty of indoor space to relax and feel secure • Freedom to be themselves—cats and dogs are welcome on furniture and beds, just like they are at home • Gentle supervision and attention from me and my boys, Evan and Aram, who adore animals and help create a warm, caring environment I also focus on trust and routine: • Following your pet’s schedule for feeding, walks, naps, and playtime • Keeping their environment calm and stress-free • Monitoring health and well-being closely, and reporting any concerns promptly • Using positive reinforcement, patience, and gentle guidance with all pets When caring for pets in your home, I treat it as respectfully as my own. I ensure a safe, clean, and comfortable space while maintaining routines and leaving your home exactly as I found it. For me, pet care isn’t just a task—it’s about creating a place where your pet feels safe, loved, and happy, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands. ❤️
“I'm so happy I reached out to Sandra for daycare for my 9 month old herding pup, Buddy. She responded right away and asked all the right questions. I could tell right away she was a pro at reading dogs' body language and at kindly managing the behavioral issues we've been struggling with. She offered great advice and worked with him throughout his entire stay. He even trained at her side as she worked at the market which was an invaluable experience, especially for a nervous pup at his age. You can be confident leaving your pet with Sandra knowing they are in the best hands. I look forward to them spending more time together again soon.”
“Brittany was great! Very much appreciated the cute pictures of our dog enjoying the stay and when my dog was excited to see her on her next stay I was sure Mikka enjoyed her time too. My dog is slow to adjust to new people so it was great that Brittany was patient through it used to this behavior.”
“Marcia was absolutely wonderful with our 9 week old puppy. She gave him an at home feel and gave me piece of mind while I was working. I will definitely be having her watch our pup again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - St. Thomas
Matthew took excellent care of my dog, Gunnie. He really went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable when he was a bit nervous. He can tell he's very good with animals and he quickly won my puppy over. With Bailey's help Gunnie was frolicking and playing in no time. My dog has been a bit anxious and has refused to go to doggie daycare recently. I was worried that he would be too anxious to stay with anyone, but Mathew handled him so well and made me feel comfortable too. I highly recommend Mathew and will certainly be booking with him again.
As my first Rover experience, Tabitha surpassed every expectation and made the whole experience feel like Tazzy was visiting family. With my permission, Tazzy had another puppy play date in Tabitha's home, and as a result came back to us exhausted and very happy. As a nervous puppy Mom, her messages and photos were so calming. Huge thank you to Tabitha for this wonderful experience. I recommend Tabitha 100%.

Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's leash and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalized care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your St. Thomas commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in ON ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
