About: I've owned pets for over 20 years. I have recent experience with puppy training and senior care. I've had my own cats and now a small dog. I'll treat your animals like my own and want them to be as happy as can be. I recently lost my cat of 18 years which broke my heart. I can't have another cat at the moment but I'd love to take care of yours! I love my little dog very much and I'd love to give your pet the care that it needs during the times you can't. I'm currently in graduate school a couple evenings per week and on Saturday mornings. My schedule is pretty flexible and I'm excited to meet your lovely pets! I have a flexible schedule, reliable vehicle, and am a trustworthy person. I have a small dog at home with a fenced in yard and she loves meeting new friends!

“Sarah-Beth was amazing with our dog, Tuck. We had her take him for walks every two days while our brother was watching him when we were away in Italy to help ease the work load. It helped us enjoy our trip stress free knowing that he was in good hands and getting some extra exercise and attention. Sarah-Beth sent photos every check in so we could see how happy Tuck was when he was with her. She was very confident in dealing with him as he is a bigger dog. With some reactivity issues we had our concerns but with a meet and greet before we left, Sarah-Beth eased our minds with her knowledge and expertise. You can tell she truly cares about the dogs she has the opportunity to work with. I HIGHLY recommend Sarah-Beth to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet.”

About: I am a huge animal lover and a proud pet parent to two cats and a big, energetic Sheepadoodle! Because I care for my own furry family every day, I know exactly how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else. I will absolutely treat yours like my own. My previous cat lived to be 21 years old, so I have a lot of handson experience with the gentle, patient care that older animals require. I am dedicating my time full-time to pet care, specifically focusing on cat drop-in visits. Because my schedule is completely open and highly flexible, I can easily accommodate your cat's preferred routine, whether they need morning, afternoon, or evening check-ins. I have plenty of time to give them undivided attention, active playtime, and all the cuddles they want! Since I specialize exclusively in drop-in visits, my top priority is making sure your cat feels safe, relaxed, and happy in their own home territory. I am highly observant, detail-oriented, and extremely respectful of your living space. During my visits, I ensure all doors are secure, meticulously clean the litter boxes, and strictly follow your specific feeding or care instructions. I will always send you detailed updates and lots of photos so you can have total peace of mind while you are away!

About: Hello, Pet Parents! 👋 ​I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by animals—from farm cats in my childhood to training our family puppy for agility competitions in my teens. Animals aren’t just a hobby for me; they are my passion. While in university, I dedicated my time to volunteering at the SPCA, helping rehabilitate and comfort large, fearful dogs. ​Today, my home is filled with love from our two cats—including my 17-year-old senior orange tabby, Naranjito—and our family dog. ​Why Choose Me? ​Through years of personal pet ownership and professional pet sitting (including dogs, cats, and birds), I have developed a comfort level with specialized medical care: ​Senior Care: Understanding the gentle pace and extra patience older pets need. ​Injectable Medications & Testing: Experienced with diabetic care, including blood tests and insulin injections. ​Special Needs & Emergency Calm: Capable of managing complex conditions like canine epilepsy and severe allergies, ensuring your pet is comforted and safe during vulnerable moments. ​​ ​To us, our pets are a wonderful, beloved part of our world. But to them? We are their entire world. ​That simple realization shapes everything I do as a pet sitter. Every interaction, every walk, and every cuddle session comes down to one fundamental question: How is this animal experiencing the world, and how can I make that experience better? ​ ​Animals experience life through a completely different lens—and often, a completely different nose! ​When your dog goes for a walk, it isn't just about physical exercise; it’s their morning newspaper, their social feed, and their grand adventure. When I’m with your pets, I act as their bridge to a bigger, more exciting world: ​For the dogs: It’s giving them the time and patience to sniff out every trail, explore new scents, and satisfy their curiosity. (My own pup always inspects my pant legs to get the full report on which fur-friends I’ve visited!) ​For the cats: It’s tuning into their subtle signals, and letting them explore at their own pace—whether that's investigating a new toy or scent-checking where I've been. ​ ​I don't believe in "one-size-fits-all" pet sitting. Every animal has a distinct personality, and unique comfort zones. My goal is to meet them right where they are and provide genuine mental and physical enrichment while you're away. ​I treat every pet as the center of my universe while they're in my care—because I know you are the center of theirs. I work as a part-time letter carrier, but I have mornings (until 12), almost all evenings, and most weekends available to care for your pet(s). I have been called "too trusting" in my past... but this has luckily never injured me in a serious way. In fact, the worst thing is realizing that my standard of trustworthiness is NOT universal... but that has made me more skeptical of others when it really matters. Caring for your pet is something that requires a lot of trust of me, and I appreciate your skepticism. I wouldn't leave my fur-babies with just anyone, too. Training dogs when I was younger made me much more aware of body language and different personalities. I am always watching for potential stressors or safety issues. I love giving dogs the freedom of an off-leash area, but would have to trust that they will listen to me before being comfortable with any safety risks involved with that.

“We really appreciated her patience with Benji. He was very shy and nervous with someone new, but she took her time, sat on the floor to help him feel comfortable, and never rushed him. Even though he wasn't ready for a walk, she made sure he had a chance to go outside and kept us updated throughout the visit. We'd happily book with her again.”

About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets, including feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic medications, maintaining routines, and providing lots of attention, patience, and affection. As a university student, pet care fits easily into my routine because I have a flexible schedule. My flexible schedule allows for me to provide consistent walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and companionship to the animal I am caring for. Whether in my home or in my client’s home, I take caring for pets very seriously. I make sure to provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment while following each pet’s individual routine. I think it is important to maintain the pet’s routine to ensure the pet gets enough exercise, playtime, bathroom breaks, and proper administration of medication. I also respect client’s homes and always leave them clean and secure.

About: Its hard enough to leave a pet with a stranger I'm hoping to make that a little bit easier. Besides taking care of personal pets since I was 10yrs old, in recent years I've taking a liking to babysitting friends dogs both at their home or mine. I have a daughter who I consider when looking at my schedule and as long as we have a friendly bunch I would be taking her along. I've taught her to respect animals just as much as I do and pet personal space is considered into that. I have a small fenced yard, but plenty of walking trails around. I don't have any pets of my own besides the 2 dogs and cat at my moms that stayed with my family when I moved out. I like to engage with the animals, if I'm coming to your house or otherwise to care for your animal I want them to feel seen and loved in the stressful moments while the most important people in their life are away.

Grooming my two medium-hairs daily was very important and I appreciated Hannah's willingness to take the time to do it. Hannah will spend the time needed to properly care for your animals and I would happily hire this sitter again.”

About: I’ve grown up around pets my entire life and have always loved caring for them. I have 10+ years of personal experience with pets, along with hands-on experience through Rover. I’ve completed several pet-sitting stays, including caring for dogs, cats, and multi-pet households, and I’m fortunate to have received some very nice reviews from previous clients. I’ve cared for all kinds of animals, including dogs, cats, rodents, and reptiles, and I’m comfortable adapting to different personalities, routines, and needs. I really enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means going for a walk, playing and getting some energy out, exploring new trails, or simply hanging out at home and keeping them company. Communication is also important to me when caring for someone else’s pets. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine and instructions as closely as possible and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and am able to work around your pet’s needs and routine. I’m generally available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I’m happy to discuss specific dates and times to make sure I can provide the care your pet needs. I understand that every pet has their own routine, so I’ll do my best to keep their schedule as consistent and comfortable as possible while you’re away. I always follow the owner’s instructions and any safety precautions they have established for their pet. This could include using a kennel when needed, keeping pets in designated or fenced-off areas, keeping doors and gates securely closed, and making sure they don’t have access to anything unsafe. I also pay attention to each pet’s behaviour and surroundings and will adjust as needed to keep them comfortable and safe. If I’m ever unsure about something, I’ll reach out to the owner rather than make assumptions.

About: I’ve always had a huge love for animals and have experience caring for many different types of pets. Along with my two dogs, I’ve spent years pet sitting dogs and cats for family friends and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, sizes, and needs. I’ve also previously owned a bearded dragon and lots of fish, so I’m comfortable learning and following care routines for animals beyond just cats and dogs. I’m responsible, patient, and very attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I genuinely love animals and take pride in making sure they feel safe, comfortable, cared for, and loved while their owners are away. I currently work part time and I’m in school but I’m available Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays after 2pm. I’m also available anytime on Saturdays but I’m only available on Sunday evenings :) I treat every client’s home and pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow all instructions closely, keep pets safe and supervised, and make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure. I’m attentive to changes in a pet’s behaviour or health and will communicate with the owner if anything seems unusual. I also respect the home by keeping things clean, being mindful of belongings, and making sure everything is as it was when I arrived.

“Sophie very clearly has a love of animals, shown through her willingness to help us with our kitties who weren't quite getting along when she came for visits during the long weekend. She kept us updated throughout our time away, and made a point to make some recommendations for things for us to try to get them feeling comfortable around each other again. Sophie further made sure to reach out and arrange a meet-and-greet, working us in to her busy schedule despite our short notice. Thanks again!”

About: I am an educator that has gone to peoples homes to work with children. My favourite part is all of the different pets I get to see which they all love me. I work part time for the county doing customer service and tutor sometimes in the evenings. I can be gone from 6-8 hours on some days or home all day depending on my schedule. I love to spend all of my free time cuddling with pets or going on walks ❤️. I am a very clean individual and so I always like to make sure I leave it just as clean when I leave. Not only that but I always ensure that I give focus to animals, playing with them frequently, going on walks (if cats like it I do walks for them too!), and of course taking care of their needs.

Before the first visit, give your sitter clear written instructions covering your pet’s feeding routine, medication, litter or toilet care, preferred activities, behaviour, and anything that may make them anxious. This is a good idea, even if you’ve had a Meet & Greet.

Your instructions should explain where supplies, such as food, treats, medication, leashes, litter and cleaning supplies are kept. Include your vet’s details and an emergency contact, and let your sitter know what signs could indicate that something is wrong.

For some visits, you may want to confirm how the sitter will access your home and identify any rooms or areas that are off-limits. Update these instructions whenever your pet’s routine or needs change.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 Tamarack 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!

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 .

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 .
