“Bandit has such a great time with Michael! I cannot say enough good things, and we've already booked more visits. Michael is truly a dog person, great with senior doggos and very kind and communicative.”
“Angela was great! She made Dobby feel comfortable, and kept me in the loop about how he was doing while I was away. Now he's home and crashed out from all the fun.”
“Sydney was absolutely amazing with our dog! She sent us lots of pics and updates that took away our worries about leaving her. We will definitely use her again!”
“Cheri and her family were wonderful watching my dog Axel for us when we were gone on vacation for a week! She sent pictures every day and was lovely to communicate with! I will definitely have her watch him again! Highly recommend!”
“We were very excited and nervous to leave our puppy with a sitter. Snickers, is easy and we knew we would have no problem. Luna, our very energetic puppy we were nervous, Britnie introduced her slowly and she played well with the other dogs. Britney sent daily notes and pictures that made us feel very comfortable about what they were doing. We will ask Britnie to watch our furbabies again.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and am a trusted pet sitter amount family and friends. I have a dog and two cats of my own. I have house sat with 3 cats for friends, and dog sat for a family with 5 dogs at a time for a week. Animals are my loves in this world and will always receive the very best from me. Hi! I’m a dependable animal lover with a full-time career and a flexible schedule that allows me to work from home two days a week. I’m available for pet care in the evenings and on weekends, and I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m attentive, responsible, and excited to meet your furry family members! I’m very dependable and take caring for animals seriously. As a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and attention to detail when it comes to caring for pets. I treat every animal with the same care and diligence that I give my own.
“Mary & her husband were fantastic! I could tell that Missy would be well cared for and would enjoy her stay. Mary sent me pictures of their activities throughout the day. I felt very comfortable and at ease, knowing that my little girl was safe and in good hands. I definitely will pick Mary again!”
About: I’ve always had a deep love for dogs and genuinely enjoy caring for and spending time with them. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs, including feeding, walking, playing, maintaining routines, and giving them plenty of love and attention. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs, and I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m responsible, dependable, patient, and will treat your pets with the same care and attention I give my own. I especially love getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they get plenty of exercise, companionship, and affection. I’ve had a dog since the day I was born! Husky, English mastiff, and now a extra friendly golden retriever Murphy who gets along with everyone! They will have plenty of space to roam in our large fenced in backyard! I lol forward to meeting your pup! I am home most of the time but do manage a kid in travel sports. I will always prioritize your pet and make sure their time alone is minimal. I have a large fenced in yard and plenty of space to roam freely inside. Our resident 4 year old golden Murphy is extra friendly to all dogs and will be excited for some new friends! I do have a large crate available if needed for any reason.
“Amanda was great with Cooper. The meet and greet was very relaxed, but it made me feel at ease that she clearly has lots of experience and confidence with pets from her vet job and boarding. I love that she sent pictures and Cooper had a fantastic time in her care!”
“Barney had the best stay with Craig! He got plenty of walks and loves the window perch. We really appreciated the daily updates and pictures. We have recommended Craig to others and will definitely be back!”
“Avri was amazing! We had a great experience with Avri and would happily book with her again. She took excellent care of Stella, kept us updated with regular messages and cute photos, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Stella was well cared for and comfortable. We really appreciated the communication, reliability, and genuine care she showed. Highly recommend!”
“Nia was an excellent sitter for Merlin! She was kind, patient (he had an unexpected accident in her home), and attentive to his high energy need for outside play time in her huge yard. She sent me pictures, assuring me of his adjustment and fun. Because it was a quick booking, I appreciated her willingness to take him after our video conferencing. I highly recommend her for other furbabies’ care and will be reaching out again for future boarding services! Thank you!”
“We left our 6 month old puppies for the first time. They were well taken care of. We got updates everyday and tons of pictures which made us first time users very happy. Will be using Katie for our puppies again.”
“Dawn took fantastic care of my baby! She came home beautifully tired out from playing with Dawn's own fur babies. Dawn provided informative daily updates that kept my mind completely at ease. I highly recommend her!”

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Walpole Island 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 Walpole Island
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. 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.
