“Christine is amazing! She communicates well, is very pleasant, flexible and I am so happy to have her watch our dog. He had a great time, they walked, played, cuddled and it was nice to get photo updates. I would highly recommend Christine to anyone and will definitely be taking our boy to her in the future.”
“I am very happy we found Patricia, she is great and takes good care of dogs. She always made sure to send updates with pictures and videos throughout the day, was very accommodating and reliable, quick with communication. Charlie enjoyed his stay with Patricia and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“We had such an amazing experience with Tsz. She went above and beyond while we were on vacation, consistently sending pictures and videos that gave us so much peace of mind. It really meant a lot to see how happy and well cared for our dog was while we were away. At the end of each day, she also provided detailed updates and notes about feedings, activities, and how everything went, which we truly appreciated. It showed how attentive and organized she is. Our 11-month-old Golden Retriever absolutely loved her, and it was clear she treated him like her own. We felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. 10/10 would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive dog sitter!”
“Salvatore was warm and friendly, took great care of Chino, and made us feel at ease. He’s very experienced with dogs, communication was easy, and the photo updates were appreciated. Highly recommend!”
“Xi always takes care of Lemon as if he were her own dog. She is truly amazing—she sends lots of photo and video updates, which always gives me peace of mind. Lemon always comes home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. It really feels like a second home because of all the love, attention, and care he receives. Thank you so much, Xi! We appreciate everything you do.”
“Chloe was a very happy dog when we picked her up and was talen care of very well. There was lots of communication, pictures and vedios while we were away so we were at ease Chloe was doing well!”
“Li was an amazing dog sitter for our Teddy! She always responded very quickly to messages and communicated very clearly. She took care of our dog so well bringing him out on multiple walks and activities daily and updated frequently with pictures. Her house is very clean and dog friendly. I could tell she cared for him like he was her own dog. Definitely recommend using her! We will be using her again if we go on another trip.”
“Shirley was an amazing host to Finn! She provided so many wonderful updates throughout the stay and took her on many walks. She was extremely easy to communicate snd coordinate and we look forward to booking with her again soon!”
“David and his family were absolutely amazing. Charlie was treated like family and taken great care of and we appreciate all that they did for him. We got pictures and updates from his stay and he got to make a friend while there which was great. David was super nice and friendly and flexible to work with. We look forward to Charlie’s future stays with them. Highly recommend David. Big thanks for welcoming Charlie into your home and taking such great care of him.”
“Adi is amazing 👏 our young doggie Nera was with him and his family for about 3 weeks. Excellent communication, always kept us updated, everyday sent us pictures and videos, and ultimately he really helped us out. Thank you very much for all your help Adi ❤️ Definitely recommending Adi to anyone looking for doggie walks or sleepovers.”
“Milo (the puppy) was treated with great care and concern by Lucy, who was amazing. Every day, Lucy gave me multiple updates on his care and socialization with other dogs. I couldn't ask for a better person to care for Milo while we were on vacation. I am certain that I will be using her services in the future. I would highly recommend Lucy. 5✨”
“Eddie was very professional. You can tell he has a love for dogs. Nikki seemed to have a good time. Eddie sent multiple videos and pictures during my time away from her. I will be using Eddie again in the future.”
“Anna was a great dog sitter! Everything went smoothly and our Sprite settled in well. Anna sent so many photos. It was reassuring to see her comfortable. I would 100% recommend Anna.”
“Our husky Basha had a great stay with Xintian and family. Although he had some separation anxiety and some nervous behavior due to an encounter with a different dog in the days prior to him staying, Xintian and family were so patient and understanding with him and kept us up to date with pictures, videos and messages to keep our mind at ease! Would definitely recommend to have your dog stay here. They truly gave him a home away from home!”
“Melissa is awesome, super flexible and relaxed. Our pup Ray has stayed with her 2X now and each time it is effortless and no stress. We don’t have to worry about a single thing when it comes to her being cared and loved for. We definitely recommend Melissa for all your pet sitting needs! Thank you Melissa for taking care of Ray! We thank you so much!”
“Charlie was in excellent care while with Yu Pei. She was attentive and gives the best photo updates each time. Her place is ideal for our dog and would be booking again soon.”
“I’ve had the pleasure of knowing the best Rover ever! She was incredibly attentive to my eight-month-old kitten and eight-year-old Chihuahua. My dog and cat are both thriving with her cats. She keeps us updated with lots of pictures and videos daily. My cat even has her own cozy room. Highly recommend!”
“Lisa and Ben were great overnight sitters for our mini poodle, Bella! Bella is usually a hyper dog and often times has separation anxiety when away from her parents but she had a blast there and was very well taken care of! Thank you Lisa and Ben!”

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 Vivian 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 Vivian
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.
