“Samantha was 10/10 - will absolutely rebook again. She was efficient, strong communication and reliable. She showed up right on time, wrote notes down for how to take care of Mila and provided multiple updates and pictures while she took care of her. We trust Sam 100% and will be booking her when we go away again.”

“Tata was great ! She sat my 8 lb puppy ( Chihuahua) and he was only 5 months old. Tata was extremely intuitive to Rico's needs and training. I was away for 7 days and she welcomed him into her home and made him feel comfortable. She kept in touch daily with video's and texts. I highly recommend her and would book her to watch Rico for any future extended trips I may take.”

About: Hi, I'm Jaymz. I grew up around dogs: my mom has pet-sat for over 20 years and I've always helped her with walks, feeding and overnights. I also volunteered at the Humane Society back in the 2000s. I offer dog walks, drop-in visits for dogs and cats, and overnight stays in your home. Drop-ins and walks are in Niagara Falls, and overnights are anywhere in the Niagara Region. My schedule is very flexible, including early mornings, evenings, weekends and last-minute requests. Happy to do a free meet and greet first. Pet care fits really well into my routine. I’m usually home most days and I’m a night owl, so I’m very flexible with drop-ins and walks — mornings, afternoons, or evenings all work for me. I can easily do multiple visits per day or spread them out. I’m reliable and like keeping a calm schedule around my own stuff, so I’m happy to work with whatever times you need. Calm, reliable pet care with strong focus on safety and trust. Gained lots of experience helping my mom with dog boarding and walking for over 20 years.
“Thanks to Marie we were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our furbaby. We would highly recommend Marie to anyone looking for a caring companion for their family pet!”

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. The dogs I watch, walk, and visit, become my family. I have experience with reactive dogs, dogs that have anxiety about thunder and fireworks, and dogs that have medical regimes. I am attuned to the need for dogs to be engaged through walks, play, and games, while also enjoying their rest. I am Pet First Aid Certified through St. John's Ambulance, with hands on training in dog CPR and other treatments. I look forward to introducing myself and meeting you and your dog(s) during a free meet and greet. My work allows for a flexible schedule throughout the week and weekends. I can be available for all of your pet care needs, regardless of timing. My elderly puppies need a predictable environment, so I prefer to stay at your home when caring for your pet(s). I will review your expectations regarding your home, the yard, and the immediate neighbourhood during our free meet and greet. I also offer additional services inside or outside of your home, if you are interested.
About: I have grown up with animals all my life from dogs and cats to reptiles and amphibians! Ever since I was a kid I have been obsessed with dogs and the amazing things they can be trained to do! I pride myself in my understanding on dogs body language and understanding how their minds work! I do currently work full time but I am looking to fill my free time with something I love and that’s spending time with animals! Well I can’t not provide day care or overnight in my home as I don’t live alone, I have a friendly fur baby of my own who loves meeting new friends on walks. I promise to respect your dogs daily routine and rules as I would expect someone watching my dog to do the same as to keep structure in your pets life well you are away as your absence can be stressful to your pet on its own.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was little, giving me years of hands-on experience with all kinds of pups. I’m certified in pet CPR and first aid, and I’ve cared for both energetic puppies and gentle senior dogs. Your pet will always be treated with patience, safety, and love. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, visits, and quality time with your pet. I’m able to schedule morning, afternoon, or early evening appointments, and I make sure each pet gets the attention they need without feeling rushed. Whether it’s puppy playtime, a calm stroll with a senior dog, or regular check-ins, I can easily adjust my schedule to fit their routine and yours. When I’m pet sitting, I follow your dog’s routine as closely as possible, feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I keep their environment calm and familiar, give them lots of attention, and make sure they always feel safe. I also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your pup is doing. I provide safe, structured walks tailored to your dog’s energy level and needs. Whether they need a slow stroll, a quick potty break, or a longer, more active walk.
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for over 13 years, and I have experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and needs! From senior dogs requiring medication and caring for my own dog with epilepsy, to energetic pups needing patience and training, I’ve experienced it all. I’ve also adopted a formerly feral cat, helping her feel safe, comfortable, and loved, training her myself and teaching her to be an indoor cat. I’ve watched birds, hamsters, guinea pigs, and fish as well. I truly believe every animal deserves kindness, patience, and individual attention, and I treat every pet as if they were my own! I’m currently a full time student at Seneca College, working toward my degree in Behavioural Psychology! My classes alternate between Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays, but since they’re all online, I have a very flexible and open schedule. I’m available day or night, weekdays or weekends, and I’m always happy to help with last minute needs, holidays, emergencies, or simply giving your furry friend some extra love and attention when life gets busy! Your pets’ happiness and well being are always a priority to me! I believe every pet deserves a safe, loving, and enriching environment! My own cat, for example, is incredibly spoiled, with a filtered water fountain, a carefully varied diet of wet and dry food, multiple cozy beds, a toy bin, two cat trees, scratching posts, and even her own outdoor enclosure! I also love taking her on adventures with her leash and harness and would love to do the same with your kitty. For dogs, I love going on long walks, exploring new areas, and switching up routes to keep things exciting! I enjoy playing with pets both indoors and outdoors, working on training, and capturing lots of adorable photos along the way. Whether caring for your pet in your home or mine, I’ll always prioritize their safety, comfort, individual needs, and routines. My goal is to make every pet feel just as loved and spoiled as my own!
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for about 10 years from having 2 cats at home and one dog, I am all taking care of a few dogs in Canada where I study and take them for walks and house sit when the owners are out of town. it helps me take a break from doing whatever to care for the pet and walk it and spend time with an animal for a few hours in a day to get my mindset different. On a daily basis I wake up and feed the dog and then take him/ her for a walk and play with the pet for a while and then take him/ her for an other walk and then at night I feed him/ her again and take him for an other walk and then one more before bed so I’m taking the pet for a walk around 4-5 times a day depends.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I currently have 1 dog and 2 cats of my own, and I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters, so I’m comfortable with pets of different personalities and needs. I also have personal experience with anxious dogs because of my own dog. I’m currently in undergrad with the goal of going to veterinary school in the future, so caring for animals is something I’m genuinely passionate about. I’m attentive and want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. This is my second Rover account, as I previously deleted my old account, because of that, I don’t currently have reviews on this profile, but i’d be happy to provide references from past clients if you’d like! I’m available basically eveeyday of the week as I currently don’t have any other job. We can talk more about the details when we get in touch. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they are stress free. I ensure they are fed on time, walked or exercised as needed, and given lots of attention. I also keep the space clean and provide updates to the owner.
About: I grew up with a golden doodle my whole life and took care of her. Majority of my family and friends have dogs so I am very used to being around them and taking care of dogs. I have experience walking various dogs, checking in on them, feeding, and hanging out with them! My availability is very open right now and I should be able to commit to anytime offered. Feel free to reach out any day and anytime of the week If I am coming to your house I will ensure to keep your fur baby safe by putting them on a leash when going outside unless there is a enclosed space with a fence. If they are coming to my house I will do the same thing to ensure their safety.
About: Hey! I’m a full time student who loves animals and knows firsthand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pet. I’m currently offering cat and dog services to help support my studies, but because I know how expensive quality care can be (and because every pet deserves reliable care), I keep my rates as low as possible. I’m a full time student so you’ll have my availability as long as I’m not actively in a lecture. Luckily, lots of courses I’m taking are online! Using positive reinforcement, I tailor my services to the preferences of both the owners and the dogs, ensuring each pet feels comfortable and secure. Whether it's drop-in visits or dog walking, I consider your dog's energy level, the temperature of the day, and other factors to provide the best care. For example, on hot days, I bring dog friendly popsicles for the pups to enjoy (with prior approval of owner, with allergies in mind). My goal is not only to ensure your dog leaves happy but also well-exercised, content, and satisfied.

“Felipe did a wonderful job watching over our 9 week old puppy and our 1.5yr old dog. Felipe responded quickly to all messages and sent many photos of our pups throughout the sit. We will definitely hire him again to take care of our little guys.”

“Caroline was so great with my pets! She was so attentive and kept me updated all the time. Our pets were so happy and well cared for. I will definitely have Caroline sit for me again, she is lovely!!”

About: Pet sitting (Longterm): 30 bucks a day Pet day care (Daily): 25 bucks a day -5 for under 4 hours +5 for over 12 hours +5 for last minute changes Child tutoring: 20 bucks an hour Child sitting: 15 bucks an hour I grew up around pets, I love animals though I don’t currently have any of my own. I have a house with a fenced back yard and lots of space. I've been doing this for years now and have had plenty of experience and happy clients! I’m a chill friendly person. Also patient. I grew up with 3 dogs and 5 parrots so I have plenty of animal experience. I've also had a number of successful and happy customers here and on Kijiji where more positive reviews can be found under 99% Geek Sitting! The Terms of Service prevent me from telling people to seek me off the app, and only allow me to say that it's safer to stay in the app. They monitor conversations and penalize harshly! I live near the intersection of Charlton and Locke and would be happy to host your pets here, but if you would rather I can be talked into other arrangements. I can also do 'sitting for kids, or tutoring, I'm knowledgeable in many areas. I've also spent time on Kijiji and Facebook Marketplace and offered a discount at 25 a day but obviously it doesn't offer you the same safety you get here, and it's against the rules to ask you to find me there, so I wont. "Kerri Murtland January 12th 2026 Geek99% is an absolute legend! I swear by his service. I have made him my permanent dog care provider. Geek99% is flexible, dependable, dedicated, supportive, friendly and always willing to take care of my dog last minute. 10/10 highly recommended services" "Taylor Simmons May 16, 2025 We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter than Andrew! He took care of our dog, Suki, for three months while we searched for a new home, and throughout the entire time, he went above and beyond. Andrew kept us regularly updated with messages and photos which gave us so much peace of mind. Every time we visited Suki, she was happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved. It was obvious she was in great hands. We're incredibly grateful for the care and attention Andrew gave her — he's truly someone you can trust with your pet." I'm always available, as a writer and agoraphobic I don't get out much. You can find me here any day of the week and weekends. I'm attentive, kind, empathetic, understanding and patient. I love animals. I grew up with them, but I don't have the money or resources to have my own. I think being able to earn money getting to hang out with cool animals and chill with them sounds like the dream. I'm responsible, loving, and stable.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your postal code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighbourhood.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Stevensville 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 Stevensville 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 Stevensville 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. 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.
