“I can’t recommend Kalyna enough! This was Luffy’s third stay with her, and each time he’s had an absolute blast. Luffy always comes home happy and relaxed, which says it all. It’s clear that Kalyna truly cares for him and makes sure he feels loved and comfortable. We’re so grateful to have found her :)”
“I can't say enough good things about Janet! I’ve never left my dog for over a week with someone who isn’t a family member, so I was slightly nervous. But Janet made me feel completely at ease. From the initial meet and greet, she was great! Very responsive, professional, and genuinely cared about my dog's well-being. She sent me daily updates and pictures everyday which was exactly what I wanted. I could see my dog was getting lots of attention, cuddles, and walks, and was well taken care of. She even made sure to shovel a path in the snow in her backyard for him to run around. I came home to a happy and healthy dog, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I will definitely be booking again in the future!”
“Great sitter! Communication was excellent, and we received regular photo and video updates throughout the stay. She followed Dodo’s feeding schedule and potty break routine exactly as requested. Dodo looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. We would definitely book again!”
“Our dog Caramel seems to have had a very nice time with Sarha and her daughter! She was super reactive and gave us regular news. We will book her again in the future, for sure!”
“My dog Alba really loves spending time with Victoria, he is always so excited when he realises we are walking towards her house. Would 100% recommend Victoria, she is very flexible and provides updates during the stay.”
“ELIT was amazing! We left our dog buffy for the night and we definitely felt at ease leaving her with Elit. She’s such a nice and sweet soul and I can really tell she will take good care of my dog and she really did! We got pictures and videos of Buffy throughout the whole day & night. Buffy was smiling in all the pictures and it made me so happy! we got to enjoy our getaway while still feeling comfortable that our dog is in a good place! She gave Buffy a lot of walks and played with her so much. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Buffy. Thank you so much Elit for taking good care of her! We highly recommend her and we would definitely book her again ❤️”
“Joan did an amazing job with our miniature golden doodle. We got multiple updates every day, and it was really clear in the photos that our dog was enjoying her stay! Thanks so much Joan!”
“We had such an incredible experience with Candice on Rover — I truly can’t recommend her enough! We boarded our dog Oslo with her for 15 days, and from the very beginning, it was clear he was in the best hands. Candice treated Oslo like he was part of her own family, and that level of care and warmth meant so much to us. He came back home happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. One of the highlights was how well Oslo bonded with her sweet retriever, Zeena. The two of them got along instantly and played nonstop — it was so comforting knowing he had such a great companion during his stay. Candice’s apartment is also spacious and perfectly located near plenty of pet-friendly parks and amenities. This meant Oslo got regular walks, lots of outdoor time, and fun playdates with Zeena, which he absolutely loved. Candice was amazing with communication as well. She consistently shared updates and photos, which really put us at ease and allowed us to see just how much fun Oslo was having every day. It’s not easy leaving your pet for an extended period, but Candice made the entire experience completely stress-free. We’re so grateful for the love and care she gave Oslo, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Jesse took great care of Kobe, who normally needs lots of off-leash exercise and can be an explorer! He sent many videos of their hikes and park outings, and was responsive in communication. Thanks Jesse :)”
“Best experience with zenia and Sachin. They took a very good care of my pup, they did way beyond my expectation, I highly recommend them. And I cannot thank enough. Thank you guys 🙏🙏🙏”
“Rob and Mary were wonderful! They made sure that Willow was comfortable and happy. They took her on lots of walks and sent us photos and updates daily. Willow had a great time with them, we will definitely book with them again.”
“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!”
“Vasco and Kisha are so good with my anxious Maggie. Administering Maggie’s daily medication was never a problem and they have been so flexible with my schedule. I hate leaving my dog but leaving her with Vasco and Kisha makes it feel a bit easier. I couldn’t recommend these two enough!”
About: I love dogs and hope to work with dogs the rest of my life! I love and deeply care about every dog and cat that is in my care. I work at a dog daycare on the weekends and a few days throughout the week - please refer to my calendar for updates on my availability During mealtimes, dogs will be fed in seperate rooms to avoid any resource guarding/reactivity around food. I do have a spare crate if clients prefer their dog have access to a crate (for things like feeding, sleeping, or breaks)
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Toronto is $50

I liked that my dog was happy, played outside in the backyard with the other dogs. She did not want to eat and Yasmine helped her with adding some treats sprinkled on top of her regular food. I received pictures and videos almost daily. I got information and answers promptly. Yasmine and her family were very pleasant and helpful.
José and Maria were absolutely awesome with Pongo!!!!! Pongo was the happiest he’s ever been. Playing around with other doggy friends, getting daily walks, and a beautiful garden to run around in :) They were so great with giving me updates on Pongo and I will definitely be back another time. It’s hard for me to trust anyone with Pongo but would definitely reach out to Maria and José again! Thank you both!!!
We’ve had Shayla and Cal watch Daisy a few times now and they’re always amazing with her! It’s such a relief knowing she’s with people we know and trust, and we never have to worry about her while we’re away. Daisy is always happy and well cared for with them. We’re so grateful to have found them and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for wonderful, reliable sitters!
Akira is the best dog sitter/carer/boarder we’ve ever had. They’ve just done an excellent job caring for and loving Lucky during long trips, short overnights, and challenging transitions. We’re so sad to be moving away and losing such a good dog friend. We’re pretty sure our dog likes Akira more than us.
We had a good experience leaving Toby in Dustin’s care. He was friendly, professional, and clearly very experienced with dogs. We appreciated the structured approach he takes to their care, including walks, feeding, and their daily routine. Toby seemed comfortable with him, and we felt confident that he was being well looked after. We were happy with the experience and wouldn’t hesitate to have Toby stay with Dustin again in the future.
We had such a great experience with Ivonne and Manuel watching Copper! They were so patient, caring, and wonderful with him, especially knowing that he can be a little anxious. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. They were so great that we ended up rebooking them for the following week! We couldn’t recommend them more and will definitely be booking with them again.
Aybuke and G’Lysa took such good care of our dog! They sent us pictures, videos and updates and it was clear that they really care about animals. They followed all instructions and I had no doubt our dog was in good hands. Very clear communication and flexible with our pickup time which we really appreciated. Would highly recommend! Thanks again!
Barbara took exceptional care of Bambi. Finding someone you trust with your pup for an extended trip is always stressful, but Barbara made the entire experience completely worry-free. Every single day, she sent adorable photo updates that brightened my day and gave me total peace of mind. Her two Chihuahuas, Ozzy and Daisy, were the absolute sweetest companions and welcomed Bambi like family. It was wonderful knowing Bambi had built-in best friends to play and cuddle with the whole time. Barbara is attentive, caring, and a true animal lover. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to bring my dogs back to her, and I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for top-tier care!
Maria Angelica and Miranda were absolutely amazing with Kimi! They took him on walks whenever they could, kept me updated regularly, and it was so lovely to see how happy and comfortable Kimi was with them. He was always so excited to go with them, which was such a sweet sign of trust. We couldn’t have asked for better care. Definitely recommend! 😊
Celia she’s amazing! It was the first time having to leave my boy for overnight care. I was very anxious until I met Celia. She received us with a big smile and she took time to talk to me to calm my worries. Through out his stay my boy got all the love and care possible from Celia and her family, they spoiled him. I got constant updates and lots of pictures with his new friends. My boy had the best time! I couldn’t find a better person to take care of him. We will return soon, that’s for sure! Thank you Celia and family for everything you did for Jackson!

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
- 86% 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.
