About: I have over 20 years of personal experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve had dogs and cats of my own throughout my life, and I currently share my home with two lovely cats. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I always take the time to help them feel safe and relaxed. I’m patient, attentive, and reliable, and I’m happy to follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and any other individual needs. I will care for your pets with the same kindness and attention I give my own, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. I work full-time during the week, but I’m available for pet care in the evenings, on weekends, and during scheduled time off. I can provide walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and drop-in visits, and I always make sure each pet receives consistent attention and care. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, medication, routines, and household rules. I make sure doors and gates are secure and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I respect each pet’s personality and comfort level and give them the time and space they need to feel relaxed. My priority is to provide safe, dependable, and loving care in their familiar home environment.
About: I’ve had animals since I was born always wanted more and love the energy they bring to a household. My best friends forever truly until I die. This summer I start a 35 hours a week summer position from Monday-Thursday 8-4 then Friday 8-11 (roughly). I am able to care for your pets in the am, in the evening, and during the weekend. Just cannot do pee breaks during the weekday. I will also adjust my rates due to this 8 hour inconvenience during the weekday. If that works for you I hope you can book with me soon!! I am aware of their surroundings and have experience working at a shelter where safety and cleanliness was a top priority I always do checks on my animals to ensure everything is okay.

About: Ollie’s mom here! I was away recently as my dog recovered from knee surgery, I am back and looking forward to making new friends! I am a registered nurse who would love to help take care of your fur baby when you’re in need. I am flexible with my calendar and rates can be discussed if needed! As a shift worker I’ve had to ask for help caring for my own dog over the years and I understand how difficult it is to find someone you feel comfortable asking for help, and to trust with your baby, which is why I wanted to help other pet parents in need!

About: Friends and family have trusted me to look after their dog(s). I have three dogs of my own so I know how to keep them entertained and take care of them. I am a university student and work part time so I have spare time that I would love to fill with being around pets and helping out where I can. I ensure the dogs have enough to play with and keep them entertained as well as keeping them out of things that they shouldn’t be in and I can assist in some easier parts of training where needed.
About: I have a huge passion for animals, especially dogs. I love keeping animals happy, and I'll love your dog like it's my own. I've had dogs my whole life, and I love the outdoors and walking. I'll make sure your dog gets lots of exercise, and I'll keep the walks fresh and new, bringing your dog to many different trails. I am completely comfortable with all sorts of dogs. I used to own a mix named Tickey, a Golden Retriver named Daisy, a King Charles Spaniel named Katie, and I now own a Portuguese Water Dog named Odin. I’ve done some dog walking for people while they were travelling for a few weeks and absolutely loved it. I cannot wait to meet your dog! I love making new friends, I feel like I have a special connection with animals because I am open and 100% comfortable. I work as a barista and am off almost every Monday, Thursday and Sunday. So I can walk anytime on those days. On days that I work I walk Odin every afternoon when I get off at 3, so I can walk your dog/s with Odin, or separately afterwards I have a fenced in yard that is all grass and it is always mowed and fully cleaned. I also have woods right behind my house that is great for walking
About: All pets will be loved and taken care of, they will definitely be my priority during the time they are with me.

Any kind of special care requested will be happily accepted and extra attention will be payed towards the concern. Would love to stay connected to each pet, should expect me to secretly give treats to all the good pets out there ☺️💙 Every service provided will be the best. So when can I meet your pet??! 🤩
“Heather pet sitted out two senior cats for 5 days when we had to go out of province for a family wedding. She did a great job! One of our cats needs medication twice a day and she administered it no problem. They loved her and did not hide when she came to visit. I felt very relieved having her watch the cats and felt like it was one thing I did not have to worry about while we were away. I would recommend Heather to anyone and would definitely book her again.”

There are 92 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Torbay. About 74% of Torbay sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. 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.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Torbay stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:
- Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
- House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
- Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.
Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.
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 Torbay 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
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.
