“Sheila took wonderful care of Bimini and Pip while I was away for 2 weeks. She followed instructions carefully and both cats seemed to have warmed to her quickly. Her daily updates and photos were so appreciated.”

About: I've provided care for dogs of all ages (newborn to palliative senior), training and energy levels, and breeds (Chihuahuas to Great Danes & Mastiffs) through fostering, boarding and day care/walks. While typically busy on weekdays, I have plenty of free time on the weekends to care for your pet(s). I can usually be available with little notice. I would follow your safety rules and use your preferred tools (leash, harness, etc.) when babysitting/walking. I also have 2 friendly dogs and a fenced yard.

About: Lover of all animals! I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I’ll also help with household tasks like dishes, mail, and plant care while you’re away. Animals are a big part of my life, and I build my schedule around providing reliable care. My weekends are dedicated to pet sitting, and during the week I’m available for drop-ins, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of affection. I provide safe, loving care with plenty of exercise, belly rubs, playtime, and attention. Your pet’s comfort, routine, happiness, and safety matter most every day.

About: I have both professional and personal experience working with dogs and cats! I’ve worked in doggy daycares since I was 15 while also caring for family and neighbourhood cats. Additionally, I’m a Veterinary Assistant student that’s received a fear-free certification along with CPR/first aid training. I love all animals and enjoy caring for them! At the moment, I work part-time at a nearby doggy daycare but I am able to adjust my schedule to accommodate the needs of any future clients I always ensure I’m creating a safe environment for the dogs in my care, if we’re walking or at home. On walks I’ll always survey the area and watch your dogs body language to check for any anxiousness and handle all situations with a calm and collected demeanour.

About: Friends and neighbours rely on me to care for their pets. My kids (9 + 6) also love to help provide love and care to the pets in our life. We currently dog sit for my friend’s floofy sheepadoodle in our home multiple times a year. We walk many neighbours dogs, and cat sit when they are away. I have also been a cat owner for most of my adult life. I am self employed and work from home therefore I have an extremely flexible schedule. My family recently adopted our own 5 year old Bernedoodle who is the silliest and most loving guy! My oldest kiddo play rep sports throughout the year which brings us on the road a lot for tournaments and travel games. Our new family member loves to travel in the car with us to outdoor games! If you are comfortable, we can also bring your dog to the ball park to enjoy some fresh air and extra cuddles. We often dog sit for friends at my home and are relied upon for pet sitting for family and friends at their home as well! We would love to meet you! I have a 4 level back split with a fully fenced yard on the central Hamilton mountain. My home is totally pet friendly although I don’t have any furry pets of my own presently (only tropical fish and betas 🙃). I have 2 young energetic kids who love animals and would be over the moon to help care for your fur babes!

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 12 years and treat every pet like family. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels, including puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with medical or special care needs. I’m comfortable administering oral and topical medications, following special diets, maintaining routines, and caring for pets recovering from illness or surgery. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I tailor every visit to their individual personality and needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priority. I provide plenty of exercise, enrichment, affection, and one-on-one attention while you’re away. I also send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I understand that every dog is unique, and I take the time to build trust, reduce stress, and make each visit a positive experience. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and comfortable until you’re home again. I’m available every weekend and also offer weekday visits by request, depending on my schedule. I carefully plan my bookings so every pet receives the time, attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I strive to be punctual, reliable, and consistent with your pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I primarily provide pet sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking in your pet’s own home, where they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles, and small animals, and I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs. I carefully follow your instructions, maintain feeding and medication schedules, provide exercise, enrichment, and companionship, and monitor for any changes in behaviour or health. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Home boarding may also be available by request for compatible pets after a meet-and-greet, depending on the pet’s temperament, needs, and availability.

About: Hey! I'm Bree, a dedicated pet sitter based out of Hamilton, Ontario. Animals have been a huge part of my life since I was a little kid, and over the years I've built real experience with dogs who need a little extra care and confidence. I’m experienced caring for brachycephalic dogs, working with dogs with a bite history and all kinds of behavioural challenges, and keeping a close eye on escape artists who love to test their boundaries. Alongside that, I also care for cats, turtles, fish and small animals, and I love getting to know each pet's unique personality and routine. I understand that every animal is different, and some need a little extra patience, reassurance and understanding. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and nervous, or has their own very specific routine, I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable and loved while their family is away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I love being able to give pet parents peace of mind through regular updates, photos, and plenty of care and attention! I offer a range of services to ensure your furry, feathered, or scaly friends are well cared for while you’re away. Whether you need boarding (if more comfortable, Luna and Ivy can be boarded at my mom's during your pet's sit), overnight care, or daily pet sitting, I’m here to help. I understand how important your pets are to you, and I strive to provide them with the love and attention they deserve. In addition to pet sitting, I also offer dog walking services. I work remotely on a flexible schedule, so I can build my day around your pet’s routine instead of the other way around. That means I can stay at your home for overnights, fit in morning and evening visits, and be there for midday feedings, medication times, or a check-in when your pet needs company. If your pet likes having someone around, I can work from your place while I’m there. Last-minute bookings, longer trips, and holiday coverage are often possible too, and I’m happy to keep to your pet’s usual feeding, walking, and medication schedule down to the minute. I care for pets in whatever setting suits them best, whether that’s in your home or mine. Most animals are calmest in their own space, so I’m happy to come to you for drop-in visits, daily sitting, or overnight stays. Boarding in my home is also available for pets who do well in a new environment. In your home, I stick to your pet’s routine: feeding, fresh water, potty breaks or litter box cleaning, playtime, walks, and plenty of attention. I’ll also keep an eye on the house, bring in the mail, and water plants if needed. In my home, pets get a safe, secure, supervised space, along with the same routine, exercise, and company they’re used to. Either way, you’ll get regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. I have experience giving medications and injections, and I’m comfortable with pets who are shy, anxious, or need extra patience. We’ll go over your pet’s routine, quirks, and any special needs at a free meet and greet before the first booking.

About: I’m a passionate animal lover. I enjoy walking, hiking, and spending time with dogs of all sizes. I’m dedicated to providing reliable, attentive, and compassionate care, ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy. I'm offering boarding and dog walking services within the Hamilton area. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy.

I provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s individual needs and routine. I prioritize their safety, comfort, exercise, and well-being while following the owner’s instructions closely. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel happy, safe, and comfortable in their environment.

About: I have experience ranging from fish, dogs, cats to even horses, growing up I used to pet sit/walk for family friends, neighbours and even at a family owned campground for local campers to enjoy a night out and have their pet cared for while doing so. I love long hikes, so if your furry friend is in need of that I have 2 years of experience with on leash and off leash hiking with dogs, or if your pet just needs some snuggles I’m happy to do that aswell! I spent 2 years working for an outdoor dog daycare gaining lots of hands on experience with training, socialization and regular dog care. I’m currently working part time morning shifts a few days a week, Monday, Wednesday, Friday, from 8-12 other than that my schedule is pretty open! I like to do individualized care programs based off each pet’s individual needs, aswell as owner preferences. Because just like us, our furry friends have totally different likes and needs too 🙂

About: I have had dogs nearly my entire life and love their individual personalities and quirks. I have experience pilling animals, and can help trim nails/bathe pets as needed. I am available 24/7, 365, as long as I have proper notice. I know emergencies can happen and because I make my own work schedule, I can be available when you need. I have a one bedroom apartment, so would be best suited for cat sitting, small - medium sized dogs that would enjoy a residential neighborhood or small park walks. In your environment, I'm happy to follow any specific rules or needs you may have for home or pet care! There is no request too strange to ensure the safety and comfort for you and your animals!

About: Ive lived with and cared for cats for over five years, and I currently have three of my own. I'm used to feeding schedules, special diets, litter care, and noticing when a pet is acting off. I've also looked after friends' pets, including overnight care for a cat and dog that needed extra patience at night. I'm calm, reliable, and good at following an owner's routine exactly. I treat your pet like my own. You'll get photo and text updates on every visit, so you're never wondering how they're doing. I follow your instructions closely, whether that's a special diet, a specific walk route, or a certain way of doing things. I'm also flexible with scheduling and easy to reach if plans change. I've set aside time for pet care around my work, so I can usually do walks and drop-ins during the day, plus evenings and weekends. Overnight stays work for me too. I'm a big believer in showing up when I say I will, and if anything changes, I'll tell you right away. Last-minute request? Message me, and I'll do my best to make it work. I come to you, so your pet gets to stay in their own space with their own bed, toys, and routine. That's usually the least stressful for them. I'll follow your instructions for food, walks, and little quirks, and I'll send you photos and updates so you can relax while you're away. I'm also happy to do a quick meet-and-greet first so we can all get comfortable

Marisa was absolutely wonderful with our two fur babies while we were away on vacation. Thanks to her, we were completely tension free the entire time. She is incredibly kind, caring , and truly amazing with pets. Marisa has a warm, and attentive attitude, and communication with her was always easy and reassuring. We felt confident leaving our pets in her loving hands. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Many sitters respond to requests in under an hour. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

Yes, you can find sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. Many sitters can respond to messages in under an hour.

To find the fastest available match, message multiple sitters with a recent "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.

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 Tapleytown 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 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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

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.
