“You can tell that Chetan loves animals, especially dogs. I was nervous about leaving my new puppy for a couple days, but Chetan was great. He left me videos, gave me updates and answered all my questions in a timely manner. I will be using him on a regular basis! Thank you Chetan for taking such good care of Chocco!”
“Ovie has a great time with Manuel, Maricris, Venus and Kira. They are very communicative, and ask lots of questions to ensure all of Ovie's needs are met/exceeded. We will definitely continue daycare with them!”

“Alma took great care of my dog Mako. He is quite an anxious dog, but she was so patient and kind with him that I was not worried about leaving him all day when I had to go to work. You can tell she loves dogs, and really wants to make their stay comfortable and enjoyable. I would trust Alma again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“Trinaty was amazing with Pippin! He was a tornado of excitement when he got there, but after a walk he settled down and had a wonderful day with her and Honey. I absolutely would (and will) have Trinaty look after Pippin again!”
“Arrived later than expected for this booking but Angela was really understanding of our situation. Very grateful that you have not cancelled. Ellie was also a delight! She greeted us as soon as we pulled our car up. Such a sweetheart. Killua seemed to enjoy their company. Picked up a very tired dog lol”
About: My name is Justine and my mom’s name is Inna. I have been around dogs since the age of 7 and started training service K9s with my father by the age of 10. Dogs have always made a profound impact on my life, and I’ve had the privilege of working with multiple breeds and personalities. My mom and I are comfortable working with all types of dogs, from puppies to seniors, and specialize in larger breeds. Our experience includes first aid and administering medication, ensuring every dog is well cared for. Having trained and handled dogs from a very young age, I now have my own service K9 who has even travelled with me, including flying to Florida. Whether your dog is young, old, large, or small, we are dedicated to providing the best care and ensuring their comfort and happiness while you are away. During the meet and greet, we’ll work together to understand your dog’s unique personality and current level of training. Dogs are our passion, and we believe in caring for them with a balance of love and gentle discipline. This helps us tailor our approach to meet both your and your dog’s needs for a positive and comfortable experience. My mom and I both work remotely and have great flexibility to care for your furry companions. This ensures that your pets receive 24/7 attention and care. We have a large fenced-in yard and beautiful trails near home, perfect for taking dogs on walks. My incredibly friendly dog, Rip, loves playing with other dogs and will provide great company for your pet. We ensure long walks every day and plenty of playtime in the backyard. If needed, we can easily crate your dog to provide a safe and comfortable space. When I am not home, my mother, who also cares for Rip, will be around to look after your pet to ensure 24/7 care. Your furry friend will always have loving attention and companionship in our home.
“Teddy has been going to stay with Yuanyuan for doggie daycare at least once a week for about 2 months and loves it! He gets so excited when I say doggy daycare and runs right to her when I drop him off and doesn't even look back at me when I go lol! He seems to really enjoy playing with Yuanyuan's dog and young children, and is always a very happy boy when I pick him up! : )”
“It was the first time spending a night apart from the dog I’ve had for 2 years so I was angst but Mike was really great. He sent a few pics of my dog and his house just had a good vibe so I felt good about leaving my dog with him. Will definitely use him again as a sitter!”
“Bill & Tracy took care of my 10 month old Cockapoo Charlie. They gave updates on what he was doing. He was wiped when I picked him up. I will be using your services again!”
About: Hi! I’m Alison — mom, animal lover, professional cleaner/organizer, and the person who will always, without exception, hit the floor when I meet an animal. 😂 You know how people sometimes say, “Sorry, I’m a little obsessed with my animals”? My response is usually, “OH! Don’t be silly — if anyone gets animal obsessed, it’s me.” And then I’m probably sitting on your floor asking your dog if they’ve always had those ears, telling your cat how handsome they are, or making friends with whatever weird little creature happens to live in your house. My own house is basically a small, slightly chaotic animal sanctuary. I currently have 1 dog, 2 cats, 2 rats, 3 fish tanks, and a free-roaming bunny. I don’t really live alone. I just pay the mortgage. 😂 I’ve always loved animals, but I’m also the kind of person who gets genuinely invested in their care. I’ve been making my own pet food for the past couple of years, and I love learning about their routines, personalities, and all the funny little things that make them them. Good pet care isn’t just food, water and a quick hello — it’s making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and genuinely enjoyed while you’re away. I’m a mom too, so I know your pets aren’t “just pets.” They’re family, and leaving them with someone is a big deal. During the day, I also work with Fairy Helpful, a local cleaning and home-support business. Which means I’m pretty comfortable walking into real homes and real life — no judgment, ever. My motto there is basically: “Don’t apologize for the mess. It’s loved and lived in.” I feel the exact same way about animals. Fur on the couch? Signs of a good life. Toys everywhere? Excellent. An animal who wants to show me their entire personality within five minutes? Perfect. I’m already on the floor. And if you need both pet care and a little help around the house, we can bundle services too. Happy pets, a little Fairy Helpful magic, and one less thing on your plate. Ask me about bundled rates! I’m easygoing, flexible, communicative, and — most importantly — I genuinely love doing this. So whether your pet is a perfectly behaved angel, a tiny menace, a professional couch potato, or a wonderfully weird little creature… I’m probably going to love them. 🐾❤️ My schedule is pretty flexible, which is one of the reasons pet care fits so naturally into my life. I work with Fairy Helpful during the week, but I build my pet-care bookings around my cleaning schedule and availability. I’m happy to work with different routines and schedules, whether you need a quick drop-in, a walk, or someone to keep your pets company while you’re away. I’ll always communicate clearly about timing and make sure your pet gets the attention and care we agreed on. Your home is your space, and your pets are your family — I don’t take either lightly. I’m respectful, careful, and very comfortable working in other people’s homes. I follow your instructions, stick to your pets’ routines, and pay attention to the little things that matter to them. I’m also a big believer in no judgment. Messy house? Totally fine. Nervous pet? We’ll take our time. Weird routine? Tell me everything. 😂 My goal is for your pets to feel safe, comfortable and cared for, and for you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in good hands.
“Priyanka took very good care of my Murphy! She is well organized & was kind to send me updates & pics. It was nice that Murphy met some new fur buddies, & looking forward to more visits 🐶😍”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
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.
Help your dog become familiar with the day-care environment before their first full day. Arrange a Meet & Greet so they can visit the sitter’s home, meet the sitter and any resident pets, and explore the space while you are there. This can make the environment feel more familiar and help you and the sitter confirm that the setup is right for your dog.
Pack anything you and the sitter have agreed your dog will need, such as:
- Their usual food and approved treats, with feeding instructions
- Medication, with clear dosage instructions, if needed
- Their collar or harness and other walking equipment
- Familiar comfort items, such as a blanket or favourite toy
- Any seasonal gear they may need
On the day of the booking, keep your dog’s normal routine as consistent as possible, including their usual meal, toilet break, and some light exercise. Keep drop-off calm and brief, which may help make the transition easier.
If your dog is shy, nervous, or needs more time to adjust to unfamiliar places, ask whether a shorter introductory stay is possible before their first full day.
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 Upper End 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 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.
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 ON 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 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.
