About: I’ve worked in the vet field for 6 years, caring for dogs and cats. And I’ve been fostering for 6 years as well. I’ve had a love for animals since before I can remember. They are my passion. I care for every single one of them as my own I’m a stay at home mom. I don’t have a lot planned right now other than some up north trips and a wedding to plan. Our house can be chaos with all the animals and 2 kids. But everyone is loved and played with. We can go for walks as our neighborhood is not as busy.
“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!”
“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.”
“First time booking with Angela and it won’t be our last! She was incredibly kind and considerate when taking on Wade. The meet & greet went great and the stay was even better. It’s clear she cares about animals and their needs. Wade had a great time! Great communication throughout his stay and very accommodating! Highly recommend.”
“Kerri and her inner posse of fellow canines and humans were fantastic with Tuukka during his stay. He was made feel right at home and has been raving about it since he got home!”
“This is our second time with Sydney and we just love how she takes care of our anxious Mochi. She can get her to loosen up overnight and gives us updates in how she’s settling in. Always love to see the photos of Mochi getting some snuggles. Thanks for everything!”
“Britnie and her husband are the absolute best! We have boarded our dogs with them multiple times over the last 2 years. They treat our fur babies like they were their own. They always get so many pets/snuggles, exercise in the backyard and yummy treats! Britnie always sends updates and pictures. We never, ever worry about them when they are in their care!”
“This was my first time using Rover for my pet Shelby. I was pretty lucky to find a great pet sitter, Jenna was fantastic. She has a wonderful puppy friendly home and is very knowledgeable and loving with animals. I'm grateful my puppy was in good hands.”
“Lisa couldn’t have been any easier to work with. The drop off and pick up was so nice and easy. The pictures during the day were great to see as well. Will continue to use Lisa anytime I need a sitter for my dog.”
“Evelyn was awesome. She did a meet and greet with us a week or so before our Golden came and stayed with her to ensure things would go well. She sent pics and videos daily and texted us frequently to provide us with updates on how he was doing during his 5 day stay. Would highly recommend her to others looking for a great option to take care of their pet.”
“Mou and Yanling were amazing with my dog dobby. I received daily videos of them playing and cuddling together. Watching them say goodbye to him when I picked him up was the sweetest thing. You could tell they really loved him. 10/10 would book again!”
“I highly recommend Amanda for anyone looking for a pet sitter! She was very responsive and gave us regular updates. This was our first time boarding our dog and she was very anxious. Amanda went above and beyond to take care of our dog.”
“Charlie was well taken care of and Craig was great with him. He took him for long walks and played with him as well as updating me with a picture. I will definitely use him again.”
“Chip had plenty of room to run. Settled in and got so much attention from the kids. Was one happy pup and could tell he felt right at home. Appreciated all the photos sent to keep up while we were away.”
“Bony is very kind and Bear seemed to enjoy his stay with her, her dog Winter and her kids! I had a last minute request and she was gracious to be able to take him on such short notice. She sent me a photo during his stay and kept me updated throughout the day. I will definitely be calling on her to dog sit again!”
“Sandra took good care of Jasmine for 2 nights. Jasmine was very happy and they had fun together. I appreciated the extra time we needed when the snow delayed our pickup time.”
“BEST sitter EVER!!! My pup had the time of his life @ Katie’s house. She came HIGHLY recommend by my brother and sister-in-love and they were 100% on point. I don’t even know where to start with this review…I mean…I honestly felt like my dog had a luxury vacation, while I was away! My pup made new friends, got to hang out in the yard every few hours (I don’t have one), watch doggie TV (sit on the back of the couch and people watch) and receive tons of love from Katie. I will not hesitate to contact her again for ANY kind of boarding/sitting service. THANK YOU KATIE…YOU ARE THE GOAT!!!”

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.
