“Absolutely loved Rose! So good, calm and sweet! Bebe is a shy dog and she put her instantly at ease! She was more than organized for Bebe, had toys, a bed and everything ready for her. Recommend her 1000%!”
“Patricia and Cory were great hosts to Bentley! They are kind and welcoming Rovers, who, with their own dogs are clearly loving and passionate about animals. I highly recommend working with Patricia and Cory for your animal needs! Five stars across the board!”
About: I've had dogs and cats since I was a wee lass. Following the training philosophy and methods developed by the monks of New Skete, I also help trained many dogs throughout the years. Dogs have been my preferred house companions my entire life. Since I work at home online, your dog would never be left alone, and since I have almost 10 acres of land, and made trails in the snow, your dog will get many walks (long or short depending on their needs) during the day, and the early morning hours if they stay overnight, as I'm an active outdoor "type". If your dog has proven to have excellent recall, they may also run off lead in either the fenced in paddocks (there are five 1/2 acres paddocks) or in the backfield. But that would have to be approved by you first, their "human partner", of course. I see patients at home online for 45-90min therapy sessions, When I'm not doing therapy sessions, I read, write, teach languages, meditate and exercise. So plenty of time to walk your fur babies and give them "bathroom breaks". I'm the only human in a big farm house with almost 10 acres of paddocked land for pasture. You will need to bring bed(s) for your dog/cats, crates if they prefer, but they will mostly sit beside me all day, and sleep with me on the bed at night (if that's what you permit at home). They will not be left alone as I seldom leave the farm.
“Pearl just had her first stay with Brooklyn and it was a great experience. Lots of updates during the day with pictures and videos. Pearl has a fair bit of anxiety but she seemed very comfortable with Brooklyn and the cats ? We will definitely use Brooklyn again!”
“Trisha is amazing! She was able to accommodate me very last minute to help me out, and Hazel had a great day! So many pictures and videos - it was wonderful! People in the area are very lucky to have her services.”
About: I treat your fur family members like my own. I have a hobby farm on 36 acres in rural NS. This spring a 40ftx50ft fenced yard was installed which is attached to our home. There is also a are currently 50ftx150ft fenced yard which is not attached to our home. I have over 13 years experience working in the animal/veterinary industry. In August 2024 I followed my dream to open my own business, Country Dogs Daycare. My focus is on my business. I am still casual in the veterinary industry but main focus is on my business and being home with the dogs 🐾 I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly dogs. Darby is a pug, Paisley is a doodle. Our family also consists of 2 cats and a our son. All pets are cared for like family and treated as if they are our own. They have full access to our home, they are fed twice daily (more if requested), and always have fresh water. A lot of our time is spent outdoors and we enjoy/allow couch cuddles 💕

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Truro on Rover is $39.96 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
Many sitters respond to requests in under an hour. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once.
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.
Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's leash and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalized care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Truro commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
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 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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NS ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
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.
