“Can't thank enough Sarah for her service and care of my 3 Kitties, she visited them at least 3 times a week (usually more) for the past few months as I needed while I dealt with an out of town move. Her help allowed me to focus on all the other things while knowing my cats were well taken care. Sarah is super diligent, and quick to reply,also always willing to add a last minute booking when I needed. Thanks Sarah! Fruna, Isis and Grisel will miss you 😺”

“It was great to have Jacqueline take care of Walter while I was away. My usually timid cat did not cower and hide which means Jackie is quiet and caring. As I understand they had great conversations - lol. She made the entire process very easy and when I returned home she had the cat's food and dishes cleaned and orderly. Thank you from Jeff & Walter.”

“Samantha was a great pet sitter for our anxious cat, we have never used a pet sitter before and Samantha was very helpful in going over everything and making sure to visit us before the actual dates to ensure everything was covered. We were updated during each visit and came home to a very happy cat :) Would highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for the past five years through dog sitting for family and friends, as well as regularly walking and caring for my own dogs. I have experience with feeding, walks, playing, basic care, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and am excited to build more experience and meet new furry friends caring for dogs through Rover. My availability changes throughout the year as I balance school. Whenever I have free time, I’d love to spend it caring for your pet! I’ll always keep my calendar up to date and communicate clearly so you know exactly when I’m available. I always follow your pet’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable and at ease while you’re away. Whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, litter box care, or lots of cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. I’ll also keep you updated with any questions I may have, messages and photos so you know your pet is happy and in good hands.

I care deeply about all beings and love to help those needed! I am studying Psychology at Brock University, though I have a flexible schedule.

“I’m so so grateful for Jessica. I booked her services in such a short notice and she was super accommodating. She would keep me updated with videos, pics and details about how my baby was doing (my cat Simon), which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. Also, Simon really seemed to like her company and energy. I would recommend her 100% - She’s friendly, caring, diligent, enthusiastic and very kind. Thank you so much Jessica, I’m very glad I found you!!!”

About: I've been around animals my entire life! Growing up we've always had multiple pets in our home. We've raised kittens into cats and puppies into dogs, all of this providing me with excellent hands-on experience with every stage of care in an animals life. Since I was 10, I've been responsible for feeding, walking, and looking after them. Now at 21, I’ve taken my dogs through training courses and have had plenty of experience caring for pets when my parents travel—making sure they’re happy, healthy, and loved! I am entering a full time job where I will work weekdays 9-5 but I have nights and weekends off and would love to help care for your furry friends! Although my yard is unfenced, I’m more than happy to take your dogs out multiple times a day and go outside with them on a leash to run and play. I’ll also gladly accommodate any specific requirements you have to ensure you and your pet feels safe and comfortable.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life (grew up with dogs, cats, hamsters and a bunny) and learned early on how to care for their unique personalities and needs. Today, I have 4 cats of my own, so I’m very comfortable with feeding routines, playtime, litter care, and giving plenty of love and attention. I adore cats very much! I grew up caring for a small havanese dog and now I help my parents with their large standard poodle. I’m best suited to caring for well-socialized dogs with stable temperaments. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I treat every animal like they were apart of my own family! My goal is to ensure they stay happy and healthy while you're away. I am self employed so I have a ton of flexibility in my schedule. It’s easy for me to prioritize caring for your pet while working! I’m doing this because I am truly passionate about animals. I understand the home is a sanctuary for both you and your pets. I prioritize safety, cleanliness and giving your pet the attention it deserves while I’m visiting. I know that every house has different rules their pets abide by and I will uphold those. I love to play and get them active as much as I can but I also adore snuggling up on the couch!

About: I have full availability, I can respond for same day situations requiring last minute care in emergencies or vacation. Weekend coverage is not a problem. Im retired and available any day for drop in visits ,boarding in my place ,overnight care or vacation coverage. Ive administered meds and intravenous drip and emptied too many litter boxes to count. Cats need to familiarize themselves in new environments, like a home owner scrutinizing a hired cleaning team, they'll decide what and where they'll hang out and tell you what they prefer.

About: I’ve spent over 35 years caring for dogs, cats, birds/parrots (including the largest species), and small mammals — through every life stage, from bottle‑fed newborns (puppies, kittens, parrots, even wild bunnies) to hospice seniors living their final days. I’ve fostered more than 300 rescue dogs since 2018, including shy, fearful, medical, hospice, pregnant moms and behavioral pups. My background as a veterinary assistant and marine mammal trainer assistant means I confidently handle medications, wound care, detailed routines and all special needs. I’ve also managed a 50‑stall equestrian center and farm, so reliable daily care and safety routines are second nature to me. Friends, neighbors and rescues have trusted me for years to love their pets like my own. I have highly flexible availability and can accommodate your pet care needs 7 days a week, including early mornings, evenings, overnights, and last‑minute requests. My current schedule allows me to provide consistent, reliable care without conflicts — perfect for travelers, shift workers or anyone needing dependable pet support anytime.

With over 35 years of animal care experience, including veterinary assisting and managing large facilities, I prioritize safety through secure handling, following your home rules, and maintaining clean, organized spaces exactly as you like them. Your pets' well‑being and your peace of mind are my top priorities. How I Care for Pets in Client Homes: •Respect your home: Follow all rules, keep areas clean/tidy •Secure environment: Gates, doors, furniture protection as needed •Personalized routines: Your pet's normal schedule, feeding, walks, play •Updates: Photos, videos, detailed notes throughout stay •Safety first: Medications, special needs, emergency protocols followed precisely

Primrose was so sweet and caring for our cat who needed some social time during our time away from home. Not only did she look after his water, food, and litter, but she provided him with some much needed playtime and cuddles. Would 100% book again.

Kari truly goes above and beyond. As soon as we have a vacation booked I book her services as I know 10000% that she will treat our cats with so much love and care. From her detailed reports and photo updates to her cleanliness and attention to detail when she visits, I have zero worries in the world and absolutely nothing but positive things to say about her. Our boys love her and I know your pets will thank you for introducing this new friend to them, too. Thank you so much for the incredible peace of mind, yet again, Kari!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Thorold is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 97 sitters in Thorold, 85% respond to messages in under an hour.

You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "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 Thorold 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. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
