“This was our Dog's first time staying with a sitter, and we were honestly nervous about using Rover. We had tried other sitters for a fit, but she never connected with them. With our trip coming up, we found Shelly and her family at the very last minute and didn’t even have time for a meet‑and‑greet. What immediately drew us in was that they had young kids even more than having their own dogs because she absolutely loves children. We knew the transition would be hard for her, but Shelly and her family went above and beyond. They sent us daily updates, were incredibly patient, and gave her the space she needed. Over time, she warmed up and even started going on walks with them after 3days of not going on a walk, She quickly transitioned to 4 walks in a day. Shelly was reassuring throughout, reminding us that given her age, this adjustment was completely normal, and that by her third stay she’d likely be even more comfortable. I would recommend Shelly and her family over and over again.”
“Yasemine and Daniel are fantastic! They took the time to learn about my dog and all of her particular needs. They sent lots of updates. I did not have to worry about her at all while we were away. Zaffy had a great time and I would highly recommend them!”
“I can't say enough good things about Liz. This was the first time to put our cat with someone new but Liz's love and kindness put us to ease. She sent daily photo updates, she treated Quinn like her own. There was no other pets and the house is well prepared for hosting pets. Quinn definitely miss her and will be back for sure. Couldn't ask for more. Highly recommended”
“Kelley is super friendly and took care of our dog’s needs and went above and beyond. She was quite flexible with the pick up and drop off times alleviating any stress for us. Our dog came home after we picked him up from her and he passed out from all the playing he did! She even showered him and handed us a bag of treats that her dogs have because she felt that our dog liked them and she refused to take money for it! Highly recommend her! We are really pleased with her service.”
“Great experience. Very reliable and caring — our dog was happy and well looked after. Communication was easy and we felt at ease the whole time. Would definitely book again！”
“Obie had a wonderful overnight stay with the kind and caring Adrianna. Her leafy neighbourhood is perfect for walks. He had a great time. The next wedding we attend in Ancaster at the Old Ancaster mill, we will definitely bring Obie back. Thank you Adrianna!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Seema and couldn’t be happier with the care she provided for my dog, Max. From the moment we met, she was very friendly, professional, and clearly passionate about dogs. Max was dropped off at 7:30 in the morning and picked up at 7:30 in the evening, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands throughout the day. Seema was extremely caring and loving toward Max. He had a great time playing fetch with her and was walked multiple times during the day. She made sure he was fed properly and well taken care of. Max also made a new friend, Yogi—an 11-month-old Golden Retriever—and they had an amazing time together, playing and running around in the backyard, even enjoying the snow. It was clear from the updates and interactions that Max was happy, comfortable, and well behaved in her care. I truly appreciate the attention, love, and dedication Seema showed. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. Max and I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Dharaben was super accommodating and patient with my anxious pup! I received frequent communication with lots of picture and updates. Will absolutely be booking with Dharaben again!”
“Nigel and his family took such great care of my Gigi! She had so much fun playing with their dog, Ozzy, and it was wonderful knowing she was in such loving hands. I would definitely book with them again!”
“Kerri-Lynn was great with our dogs, one of which is 14 years old and deaf and one who is timid and afraid of new places. She kept sending pics of pur dogs throughout the night and it was obvious they had settled in perfectly and comfortably!”
“Olivia was a fantastic host for Alfie! She was conscientious about Alfie’s needs and went the extra mile in ensuring he was comfortable. A great communicator, she kept me updated throughout his stay. I so appreciated the whole family looking after Allie with such care and love. He came back a very happy puppy.”
“This was our first experience using a Rover pet sitter and it was a 5 star, excellent experience. Jennifer and her family were friendly, warm, and obviously excited to welcome our young cockapoo Ace to their home and family for the week. We immediately felt comfortable with leaving Ace with them. Their dog and ours got along well and it was nice knowing our dog had a playmate for the week! Throughout our time away, Jennifer communicated every few days about how things were going and even sent pics/videos. We would absolutely recommend Jennifer’s services!”
“Jayna was fabulous with our dogs and one of them is definitely a handful - full of puppy energy and a lot of bounce! 🤣 We’d highly recommend her and will definitely bring the boys back to her (when the little one’s energy balances out a bit!)”
“Sandra took great care of our dog, Coco. She was very flexible with pickup and drop off timing which ensured we were not rushed on the way back home from our trip. She provided plenty of updates including photos of Coco; this gave us the peace of mind that Coco was in great company. We will definitely reach out to Sandra again if we’re traveling across the border and need a sitter in Hamilton.”

“Veronica took amazing care of my dog, and I couldn’t be happier with her service. I would trust her again without a second thought. Oreo is a very energetic puppy, and she did an excellent job handling him. It was clear that she genuinely cared for him, and he had a great time. Highly recommend!”
“Hayley was really great with Piper, sending us photos and taking her for a long walk with her dog Penny! We felt really comfortable leaving her for the night while we attended a wedding! Would highly recommend Hayley!”
“I cannot recommend Barbara enough! Our dog is always very comfortable in her home. Barbara keeps us updated and takes wonderful care of Boudicca. Thank you Barbara!”

Aishwarya and her husband are both very caring people who obviously love dogs. Dusty was very well taken care of during his stay with them. Aishwarya sent many videos to us while we were away and he looked pretty happy for an old sole of "90" in dog years. Highly recommend

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your postal code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighbourhood.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Tyneside 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 Tyneside
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 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.
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. 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
