About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 11, starting with family and close friends. I’ve now been caring for pet for 11 years! I absolutely love animals, meeting new ones and caring for them! I learned from working under the groomers at a pet salon and pet store how to brush, trim paw pads, and cut animal nails correctly. I now do my cats nails at home! I also know how to administer medication with a needle, as my dog had diabetes. I am in college typically from 8:30 to 3:30, with some days finishing earlier or later. I have the mornings before class, the breaks in between classes, and after classes to care for pets. I have an office job, but I often work from home, so that doesn’t affect my ability to check on pets. I find out any and all information regarding the pets and the home, and then confirm the information the day I start. I send daily updates, usually with photos!

About: With over 20 years of experience providing quality pet care, I am passionate about ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. As a proud cat owner myself, I understand the importance of treating pets like family and always go above and beyond to meet their individual needs. Over the years, I have become the trusted pet sitter not only for friends and family, but also for friends of friends through word-of-mouth referrals. I have experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities and am comfortable with everything from daily care and companionship to dog walking and exercise. Whether you need pet sitting in your home or mine, I provide reliable, attentive care tailored to your pet’s individual needs. No pet is too big or too small This is my second job, BUT my work hours are flexible. I never work more than 8 hours, and can work around pet care based on the needs of the client!! YOUR pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. Whether caring for your pet in my home or in yours, I strive to maintain their regular routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise requirements, and any special care requests provided by owners. In my pet-friendly condo, pets are always supervised and given plenty of attention, affection, and exercise through regular walks and playtime. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect their space while ensuring their pets receive the same level of care and companionship they are accustomed to. I am attentive to each pet's individual personality and needs, and I am happy to provide updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they are away.

About: I love animals and have had pets since I was young. I currently have two cats, lots of fish, and a very playful Golden Retriever but I have looked after all different kinds of pets! I've cared for all kinds of dogs (small to giant), cats, a tortoise, a bunny, a chinchilla, and fish. I would be so happy to take care of your furbabies, whether it's drop in visits, walks, or doggy day care in my home. I am available for doggy daycare on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays! For doggy daycare, up to 10 hours is included in the price. For daycare over 10 hours, an additional $10 charge will be applied. I have a very large fenced yard where your dog can run and play to their heart's content. I have also completed Dog/Cat First Aid and CPR that I can use in the unlikely event of an injury.

About: I am very experienced with puppies, adults, and senior dogs, as well as cats and birds. I am quite comfortable administering medications and providing training and playtime. We have had our current dog since she was a puppy and took on a lot of the training responsibilities. I used positive reinforcement through pets and words of encouragement, treats, and clicker training. I have also taken care of a senior dog who required medications, physical support, and diapering. I have experience with large breed dogs as our previous dog was a Great Pyrenees who required regular walks, grooming, and playtime. We have had our 16-year-old cat since he was born. He is diabetic but is no longer insulin dependent. His diabetes is now managed with his specific diet, so I understand the importance of sticking to a plan and schedule. I am currently working part-time and would love to spend some time with your fur babies - snuggling on the couch or placing tug of war. I never walk dogs off-leash unless it's at an owner-approved dog park and inside an enclosed area. I always walk on the sidewalks where possible and I stay on the side of traffic. I am always cautious when entering a house with cats to ensure no escapes occur on my watch. I always follow the owner's training and house rules to the best of my ability. The pets' safety is my first priority and when unsure of what to do, I use common sense or I will call the owner for direction.

About: I personally had a cat and dogs around the age of 10. I currently have a dog soon to be 5 years old. For more than 5 years I took care of an elderly dog on a weekly basis and made visits to take care of pets in their owners. I work part-time and know my schedule one month in advance so I can offer my services from time to time according to my schedule. I speak French and English. Depending on the needs of your pets, I will follow your recommendations in order to keep the routine already established in your home and to keep them safe and happy

About: I have lots of experience caring for many types of pets, my most favorite being cats and dogs. I’ve been providing care for many years. My love to care for animals is why I begin to offer dog walking and drop-in visits for both cats and dogs. I'm a full-time university student, but now that school is complete for the summer, I have open availability—mornings, afternoons, and evenings—plus full flexibility on weekends. I'm excited to dedicate my time to providing your fur babies with the attentive, loving care they deserve! I am a very safe and responsible individual who loves animals. I would provide excellent care to ensure they receive lots of love and all needs are met!

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.

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! I have lots of love and care to give and as a dog lover I would love the extra company and companionship. Rest assured they will be treated with the same love and care as my own, lots of love to share ♥️🐾 Reach out! Hello! I am a full time registered nurse and dog mom to my energetic boy, Ollie.

Although I do not have a fenced yard your pup will safely be able to go out for supervised pee breaks on a long leash in my yard. I live near many trails, ponds, and bowring park. My dog Ollie is well socialized and loves all of his buddies at daycare, he would love to have the company of another dog. I am able to visit your place, take your pup to mine, or take them out for a stroll.

About: I have hands-on experience fostering dogs through the SPCA, which gave me the chance to care for pups of all ages, temperaments, and needs. On top of that, I’ve raised and trained my own puppy from the ground up, so I understand the patience and consistency needed for things like crate training, housebreaking, and leash manners. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like family, with a balance of structure, love, and playtime. I dedicate weekends and my days off to caring for pets, which means I can give them my full attention without rushing. This makes it easy for me to stick to each pet’s schedule, whether that’s walks, feedings, or cuddle breaks. In my home, pets get a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of playtime and attention. I follow any feeding or medication routines exactly as instructed. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space while making sure pets feel loved and secure from walks and play to quiet companionship. My goal is to keep their routine consistent so they feel relaxed and cared for while you’re away.

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: All pets will be loved and taken care of, they will definitely be my priority during the time they are with me. Had dogs for the major part of my childhood, so growing up connecting to pets is not much of a problem for me. Will be playing with them pretty much all the time for sure, do not have to worry about any kinds of danger, safety will be ensured first. 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??! 🤩

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

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.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Torbay

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Torbay on Rover is $48.84 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 101 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Torbay. About 77% 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.
