“Jeanine took fantastic care of our dog while we were away. She was responsible, caring, and kept us updated with photos. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup. Highly recommend her!”
“10⭐️!! Luke had such a great time on his vacation — I swear he didn’t want to come home! Jaeb was great with sharing daily photos of Luke’s stay, brushed him, took him for walk, played inside and out in the yard, and cared for him when he was nervous during the thunderstorm that hit. Immediately after meeting Jaeb we knew Luke was going to be in good hands, and we wouldn’t worry one bit while we were away. We will 100% be using Jaeb again in the future.”
“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Kirsten who took care of our Sadie. This was our first time leaving our puppy so I was feeling quite anxious. Kirsten was amazing with her & kindly sent picture updates. Knowing Sadie was in kind & loving hands made all the difference in the world! We would highly recommend Kirsten?”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing. She seemed very experienced with dog care and made my nervous dog feel very comfortable and at ease! She kept me updated throughout the booking, and was very accommodating and understanding. I'd recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a great, reliable dog sitter.”
“Anothai and Mersad are AMAZING!!! I highly, highly recommend them. My two little dogs were so well cared for, I had absolutely nothing to worry about. They are very kind, loving people who adore dogs. They keep you updated all the time with pictures and videos. Your dogs will be very happy staying with them. I will definitely be bringing mine to them every time I need to go away.”
“Susanna & Claude were amazing hosts. Brownie seemed super happy and relaxed. Communication and feedback was great and organizing drop-off and pickup was a breeze. Thanks for taking care of our furry family member over this period. You will definitely be our first port of call next time Brownie needs a temporary stay!”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for both dogs and cats of various ages, sizes, and personalities. Friends and family regularly trust me to care for their pets while they’re away, including feeding, walking, playtime, administering medications when needed, and keeping them on their normal routines. As a registered nurse, I’m responsible, attentive to detail, and comfortable following specific care instructions. I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and recognizing when a pet’s behaviour or needs may change. I’m also a pet owner myself and know that every animal deserves individualized care, plenty of affection, and a safe, loving environment. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable and cared for while giving owners peace of mind through reliable communication and regular photo updates. I work 3-4 days per week as a registered nurse and am looking into fitting pet care into my schedule. I am available Thursdays, most Fridays, and weekends. I care for every pet as if they were my own by following their usual routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I prioritize safety, provide plenty of attention and exercise, and carefully follow any special instructions or medication schedules. I’ll also keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.
“this was my first time using them for both of my dogs while I was out of the country for a few days, which is always scary as a pet owner. My dogs seemed like they were very happy there and I can tell that they were taken care of extremely well like they were their own and I would definitely use them again as well as recommend.. He literally had one person.”
“Marylin took care of my 50lb goldendoodle for over two weeks. When I picked him up, he was happy and healthy ❤️. She also sent me some pictures while I was away which I really appreciated. Thanks Marylin 😊”
“Very good Dog sitter Viktoriia and her Family took my dog in with no issues at all. Very good with my sweet girl and gave me updates the whole time! It was my first time using rover so I was a bit nervous but she made me feel so comfortable.”
“Chelsea was amazing with my Frenchie, he even followed her dog into the water at the beach for the first time! I love how comfortable he appeared to be with Chelsea. The updates made me feel at ease and it was nice seeing that he was having a great time. I’ll definitely be choosing Chelsea again.”
“Amy was open, responsive and caring with our cocker spaniel. This was our dog’s first time staying away from home with a pet sitter and we were reassured by Amy’s love for dogs (she has two little ones of her own) and her understanding that communication between her and us meant a lot. We received a photo and message every day. Thank you, Amy.”
“Lisa and Geoffrey were amazing! We were in town for a bike race and had our dog, Fox, with us. She had an amazing night and day with them while we were out riding. Lisa sent us tons of photos and updates. It eased our minds completely. Thanks for much to you both for taking such good care of our girl!”

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Summerland 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 Summerland
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. 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.
