“Amelia was very attentive with my dogs, always in constant communication, and made sure to send lots of photos and updates. My dogs had so much fun and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again—highly recommend!”
“Rie was really very accommodating and Benji was happy. She really took good care of his needs. Benji needs people around him and he’s a Velcro dog. Rie realized this and gave him good company. I would definitely use her service again :)”
“Jessica and Allan are wonderful and took great care of my dog! Responsive, responsible, and sent really nice updates throughout his stay. Would book again in a heartbeat, thank you!”
“Elit was wonderful with our anxious older Coton. She made sure we knew he was settled and happy with lots of photos. She is a very kind person and Freddie was very happy and content when we picked him up. Highly recommended.”
“Glenn and Margaret were wonderful hosts for our 10-year-old dog. They took amazing care of him and truly spoiled him with love and attention. We received regular updates and photos, and he looked so happy and relaxed the entire time. We felt completely at ease and are very grateful, we highly recommend them!”
“Samantha and Matt took wonderful care of my dog Zoie while I was out of town. Samantha was extremely communicative, and made the initial meet and greet quite easy and convenient, as well as arranging drop off and pick up. She kept me up to date with pictures and messages every day, and it's quite clear that both Samantha and Matt are animal lovers. I would absolutely have them watch Zoie again in the future, and would recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“I cannot recommend Rong enough! She's been looking after my girls for the past 8 months for walking and boarding. This is the second time she boards the girls for 7 days, and everything that could go wrong with their health (they are special needs' dogs) went wrong. Rong dealt with the health issues calmly, professionally, and in a very caring way. Being thousands of miles away from my dogs when things went wrong was a terrifying experience, but knowing that Rong took the utmost care and handled everything so well, it gave me the peace of mind that I needed to continue my trip. Now I'm back and my dogs are healthy and well cared for, which is all I could ask for.”
“Joey had a wonderful stay. As a senior who requires daily medication, we were pleased that all his needs were met without any issues. We received regular updates with photos, and Joey returned home happy and healthy!”
“Elizabeth took such great care of my little man while I was away! He got so much exercise and ate so well! And she was great at sending me lots of updates & photos each day. Would highly recommend!!”
“Michael was awesome. Zeke had a terrific time with him. He sent me pictures, updates and was responsive. He's also pretty tired which is always a great sign :) I would 100% send Zeke back to Michael another time. Thank you very much, Michael!”
“Tijung and Licheng were very kind and helpful, Desmond had a great time staying with them. Even though he nervous peed during his first night with them, Tijung and Licheng were accomodating and helped him feel more at ease. I would reach out to them for boarding again.”
“Mykyta Was great, the whole thing felt like a breeze, very nice and flexible, great communication, and Nikki seemed very happy when we picked her up. We’ll definitely love to book again with her”
“Akshata was a lovely host. Kept me updated with pictures of my boys, and communicated thoroughly throughout their stay. I would most definitely be using her services again when in the city.”
“Maria Carle did a one week boarding for my dog. She did a fantastic job. She’s very sweet, nice & responsible & did her job with pride. Charlie really took to her & immediately warmed up to her. I liked her very much. She kept me updated while I was away with texts & very cute pictures. She gave me peace of mind while I was away & knew Charlie was in good hands. I highly recommend her. I will definitely be hiring her again”
“I’m so glad I met Adriana and her family! They took amazing care of Liu and kept me updated with messages and photos of his happy time with them. I truly appreciate everything they did.”
“Cynara was amazing with Oscar. She was very conscientious and asked lots of questions about his care before the stay. And sent lots of updates while he was with her. I would not hesitate to book her again the next time I need a sitter”
“Lok Yung and Kam Hin C took care of my two dogs perfectly! Before we met they asked lots of questions about routines and allergies and habits to get to know my dogs. Then once they were caring for my dogs, they gave me regular updates and photos which I appreciated. It was an easy and seamless booking and my dogs had a blast! Thank you so much for your high level of care!”
“Dubu had such a happy week with Hyewon. She sent me photos, videos, and detailed updates about Dubu twice every day. Unfortunately, Dubu got sick during the stay, but I was so grateful for how she treated him with such love and care. I highly recommend her to everyone. See you again next time!”

We had such a wonderful experience with Sam! This was the first time Mochi stayed with her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Sam was incredibly quick to respond throughout, and it was clear from all of her updates that she genuinely cared about Mochi and wanted to make sure he was happy and comfortable. We received daily updates along with lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We especially loved getting to see how comfortable Mochi was with her! She even put together a little report card for him at the end, which was such a thoughtful and adorable touch. We’re already looking forward to having Mochi stay with her again! ❤️

We had such a wonderful experience with Rong and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Cookie. This was the first time we had ever left Cookie with someone he didn’t already know, so we were understandably a little nervous. Cookie has separation anxiety, and even when we’ve left him with people he knows, he can have a hard time being away from us. But Rong was absolutely wonderful with him. From the photos and updates, we could tell how happy and comfortable Cookie was, which was such a relief for us. In fact, when we came to pick him up, we were amazed that Cookie wasn’t even overly excited to see us! That alone told us how safe, happy, and well cared for he had been with Rong. Rong was kind, caring, communicative, responsive, and incredibly accommodating throughout the entire stay. She kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was also extremely flexible and even accommodated our last-minute request for an earlier pickup, which we really appreciated. Most importantly, it was clear that Rong genuinely cared about Cookie and treated him with so much patience and affection. Everything, from the communication to the updates to the care itself, was excellent. We’re so grateful to Rong for taking such wonderful care of Cookie and would absolutely trust her with him again. Highly, highly recommend! ❤️🐾
Jashnoor was amazing with Pluto and Astro. She sent me lots of updates and photos throughout their stay, which I really appreciated, and I always felt like I knew exactly how they were doing. Both of my dogs have their own little quirks and can take a bit of time to warm up, but she was very patient with them and let them get comfortable at their own pace. She even took them out separately at first and was really thoughtful about making sure they felt safe and settled. I also appreciated how observant she was, even checking with me when she noticed Astro’s eye looked red. By the end they looked completely relaxed and comfortable with her, which says a lot. The photos she took were also so good and I ended up saving a bunch of them. I would absolutely book Jashnoor again. She was caring, attentive, communicative and really took great care of both of them.
Shu was great with Pluto and Astro and I felt really comfortable leaving them with her. She kept me updated throughout their stay and was very attentive to both of them and their different personalities. My dogs definitely have their quirks, and she handled everything really well and adjusted based on what worked best for each of them. They were both comfortable with her, which is always the biggest thing for me. She’s caring, reliable and easy to communicate with, and I would definitely book her again. I’m really glad I found her.
I can’t recommend Soohwan and Seon Hee enough! They were very communicative both before and during the sit. They sent me multiple pictures every day, and took amazing care of Wilbur. They took him on an adventure and treated him very well. We’ll definitely be rebooking with them!

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Toronto home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favourite hang-out spots in your Toronto
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
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 dog, 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.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 81% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
