“Caroline provided our Henny with the best care. Lots of great updates and easy to communicate with. It feels like Henny had a great vacation of his own with his new friend Oisin. We will book again!!”
“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!”
“Zenia and Sachin are absolutely great with my dog Maya. They're always responsive and I can see how much they care about her so it gives me a lot of reassurance that she's in great hands.”
“They were incredibly kind and attentive throughout the entire time. They kept us updated regularly, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Narcissa was taken on walks both in the morning and in the afternoon, and they even shared videos of her playing, which we truly appreciated. They were very patient and understanding, especially considering that it can be difficult for a pet to adjust to a new environment. Their friendliness and willingness to help made a big difference during this particular trip. We would absolutely love to continue booking with them in the future, as we were extremely satisfied with the care and attention they provided to Narcissa.”
“Cynara was so attentive and great with my dog during his stay with her. She took him for frequent walks, played with him throughout the day and gave him lots of cuddles. She also sent me lots of photos and updates. I recommend her whole-heartedly to all dog owners!”
“This was our second time working with Allan and Jessica to sit our French Bulldog, Frankie. We were gone for nearly a month for work, and they have always taken great care of her! Allan is really good and quick with communicating, and they were able to pivot easily when Frankie’s medication ran out and we couldn’t sort out a way to get more to them. That was my fault, and they handled it with grace and ease. We’re never stressed or worried when our dog is with Allan, Jess, and their sweet boys!”
“Katherine is a wonderful, kind and attentive person and pet sitter. She reaches out daily with updates, pictures and videos without fail ! This put my mind at ease as I knew exactly how my cat, Tori, was doing each day. I highly recommend her !”
“I’m so grateful for the care and attention my dog received during overnight stays. They were kind, reliable, and made sure my poodle felt comfortable and loved. Communication was great, with regular updates that gave me peace of mind. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter! ♥️”
“Absolutely wonderful pet sitters! Very respectful to my requests and responded quickly to texts. Maddy had so much fun with them, and she looked completely worn out by the end of each day! I really appreciated all the silly pictures they sent as well! Would recommend and book again.”
“Dawne was exceptional with our pup, and we never had any concerns leaving Pippin in her care. She cares deeply about all the dogs she looks after and is a magnet for animal affection! We were nervous about leaving our slightly anxious dog for a long period of time, but Dawne calmed our nerves with detailed reports and great pictures. She took Pippin in over the holidays and for that we are incredibly grateful! Do not look further for the best pet sitter in the city!”
“Vilma and Nicola were truly wonderful. From the start, they made us feel completely at ease with their thoughtful updates and photos. It was so comforting to see how happy and relaxed Teddy was—he clearly felt safe, loved, and right at home. We’re very grateful for the care and kindness they showed him. Thank you! :)”
“Daniela was AMAZING! So kind, caring, and incredibly knowledgeable. You can trust her with your dog with your eyes closed. She took such great care of our pup, and we couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!”
“Kalyna was fantastic! She was so good to my dog (and me - I was nervous after not leaving him with a sitter for over 18 months). He was such a a happy boy; she sent lots of pics and was prompt for drop-off and pickup and really great about messaging. 10/10 - would happily have her sit for us again.”
“Dari and Louis are truly a match made in heaven. Louis can be a bit difficult and he loved her instantly. She sent me photos and message updates all throughout his stay with her. Daria has a very gentle, light, and loving energy and I can see why she is so amazing with animals. I am so grateful I found her and will continue to use her services. 5 💫 star rating 💫”
“Sam and Tania were absolute lifesavers for watching Tequila last minute while I was away for the weekend! I have a lot of anxiety leaving my dogs and usually find myself constantly checking in with sitters to see how they’re doing. This was honestly the first time I didn’t have to ask once how my dog was because they were so great at sending regular updates and photos on their own. It was such a relief and I was actually able to enjoy my entire weekend away with peace of mind knowing Tequila was safe, happy and being completely spoiled 🥹❤️ Their communication was quick and consistent, there were no surprises, and they were both incredibly kind, friendly and accommodating. Honestly what more could you ask for in a dog sitter?! I’m so happy to have found them and love knowing that next time I go away, Tequila will be spending time with her new friends!!”
“I received a lot of photos and videos through the days. I feel comfortable leaving my dog with them. I will definitely reach out again if I ever need someone to take care of my dog.”
“Cel and Julie took great care of my 2 year old pup,Caramel. Caramel was a little shy at first but they made sure to make her feel comfortable at their place. The pictures during the stay told me Caramel was feeling home. Thank you very much for looking after Caramel!”
“Derek provided a great home and care for our beagle, Charlie. He was very communicative throughout the entire stay keeping us posted on how she was doing. Would 100% go with him again.”

Red's time with Fareeda was filled with walks and caresses. I can tell that Red had a great time with her given all of the pictures and video updates I received while away. I am extremely appreciative for the level of care and attention Fareeda gave Red. I look forward to working with her again and would highly recommend to anyone.
Lekshmi & Shaunak ARE AUH-MAZING. They have two adorable cats who pretty much observed my doggo the entire time. We did a little meet and greet so we can introduce one another with our pets. She followed instructions very well and read all of milli’s info. They both accommodated Milli above and beyond. Took her to a cafe & even carried her back.🥲 Milli had lots of play time with their cat’s toys. I received plenty of photos and videos and updates on what they were doing together. First time on rover with the best experience!! I don’t need to book with anyone else. <3
I will 100% hire Mariia to sit Lego again! When Lego got back home, he seemed to miss her already, which proves how well she cared for him. Mariia is extremely thorough and attentive—asking all the right details about his routine and checking in for approval before making any changes. I felt completely at ease knowing Lego was in such great hands while I was away. Highly recommended!
I can't say enough good things about Jashnoor! She took care of Astro and Pluto for 11 nights while I was away, and I really appreciated how much care and attention she gave them. My two dogs have very different personalities and can be a handful, but Jashnoor took the time to understand their quirks, routines and what made each of them comfortable. She sent me regular updates, lots of pictures and videos, and was always open and honest about how things were going. What I appreciated most was how patient she was and how willing she was to adjust her approach when something wasn't working. She genuinely cared about making sure they were happy and comfortable. By the end of their stay, it was clear how much they'd bonded with her. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were being so well looked after, especially while I was away dealing with family matters. I'm really grateful for everything she did and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her!
Emily was wonderful with our two dogs! She welcomed them into her home and treated them like family. She was kind, patient, and clearly paid close attention to their needs. They bonded with her almost immediately, even Maisie, who is usually very standoffish with new people. That says a lot about how gentle and caring Emily is. We came home to two happy, relaxed pups and total peace of mind. We'll absolutely be booking with Emily again. Highly recommend!
Mykyta was amazing throughout the whole process. He was open to having an initial meeting so my dog (Alfie) could meet him and his own dog so that on drop off day Alfie would be more comfortable. He provided photographs and updated me twice a day which ensured I knew Alfie was happy throughout my holiday. I was pretty nervous about leaving Alfie for the first time and Mykyta made the whole thing easy for me. Alfie came back extremely happy and we'll 100% use Mykyta whenever we go on holiday again. Thank you!!
I honestly couldn't recommend a better dog sitter! From start to finish, the experience was amazing. You can tell how much love, care, and attention Yumin give to the little one . I felt completely comfortable knowing my fur baby was in such good hands. Yumin was reliable, caring, patient, and kept me updated throughout the stay. My dog was happy, well cared for, and treated like family. It means so much to have someone you can trust with such an important part of your life. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing dog sitter. 10/10 experience!
David and Sandra did an amazing job with taking care of my senior dog, Luna! They checked in often, provided me with updates, and sent photos and videos, while making her feel at home. They made sure to ask questions and took the time for a quick meet and greet with our dogs beforehand. Overall, they were very responsive, friendly, and communicative. Thank you again!
Marcus and his girlfriend Arati did a great job looking after our high-energy terrier, Oscar. Both friendly, and communicative, they kept us up to date with plenty of pictures of Oscar out for walks, chasing his tail, or cuddling up to them on the couch. Oscar seemed to take a real liking to them, and judging from the pics had no problem making himself right at home. Will definitely be rebooking in the future!
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Vivienne. Right from our initial meet-and-greet, she put us completely at ease because she was gentle and very welcoming to Luca. Her place is clean and lots of space. During our 21 days trip, we received regular photos and videos update. She response right away. We felt that Luca was part of their family. They took Luca wherever they go (mall and park) together with her dog Haru. Vivienne went above and beyond (besides from the regular routine), she brushed Luca’s teeth and fur everyday. Vivienne lets Luca stay beside her while she was working from home. When we picked our Luca up, she was happy, clean and relaxed. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again.
Carlos was an amazing attentive and detailed caregiver for Mezzy during a long trip abroad. He sent daily updates that included a recap of her mood, bathroom and eating habits and tons and tons of pictures and videos ! I felt so reassured that Mezzy was in great hands with Carlos

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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
sitters in Toronto have an average of 12 years of experience. Each sitter has their own unique experience and skill sets for different types of pets. You can find details of each sitter’s potential certifications and abilities, such as pet first-aid or senior pet experience, listed on their profile.

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.
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.
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.

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.
You and your Toronto sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
