Sara and Cody are incredible people who took amazing care of my fur baby. Charlotte was very well cared for, and Sara truly went above and beyond to make sure she was happy, comfortable, and loved. I couldn't have asked for better care, and I highly recommend them!

Jacqueline took great care of our three cats while we were away. She happily accommodated their different foods and feeding schedules. Her updates and photos from each visit were so reassuring to see while we were out of town. We will definitely book her again in the future!

I bring a combination of hands-on experience and a genuine love for animals! I provide regular updates, photos and open communication so paw-rents feel connected! I am currently retired with a flexible schedule to accommodate your pet care needs! I look forward to loving your fur family like my own! I have a fenced in yard, on a quiet street, and I offer pet sitting for your dog (or cat) at either my home or yours.

About: I’ve spent over 5 years working professionally in Doggy Daycare(s) in Ontario, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. With these jobs, I’ve also had the privilege of working alongside very intelligent and experienced dog trainers, giving me some beneficial knowledge to use and share! Things about me to help ease your mind: • Pet first aid certified (through The Hound Lounge Inc. and Aldergrove Animal Clinic) • Capable of medication administration (oral, topical, injection) • Able to do nail trims and ear cleanings (please note I will not be able to perform these if your pet is showing signs of stress - but I’ll always try my best!) • Comfortable with any breed, size and age • As previously mentioned, lots of professional experience through doggy daycare/boarding facilities, animal shelters, pet stores and previous dog walking/pet sitting jobs. My messages are currently open for inquiries and bookings! 🐶🐱🤎 Mon-Friday: Please reach out to discuss my availability ☺️ (daytime may vary, evenings are usually open) Weekends: Always available (unless stated on my profile that I’m away, which won’t be often!) I know how important it is for animals to stay in their routines; I take instructions very well and will always follow your rules when your pet(s) are in my care! My communication skills are strong; and I like to include pictures in my updates (if given permission), as pet photography is another hobby of mine. ☺️

About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and recently said goodbye to my two sweet pups who both lived beautiful, full lives to 16 years old. Caring for them through every stage — from playful puppy days to their senior years — gave me deep patience, attentiveness, and love for animals at every age. I understand how much pets mean to a family because mine were truly my heart. I treat every dog in my care with the same gentleness, respect, and affection, making sure they feel safe, happy, and right at home. 🐾 Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I intentionally keep my schedule flexible. My days off during the week and on weekends allow me to care for your pet 100% of the time — they won’t be left alone for long stretches. I plan my days around walks, feeding times, play, and rest so your pet gets consistent attention and supervision. Whether it’s multiple daily walks, enrichment time, or just extra cuddles, I’m fully present and focused on their care while they’re with me. 🐾 Safety and trust are everything to me. In my home, pets are supervised, loved, and treated like family. While I don’t have a fenced-in backyard, I make up for it with frequent structured walks and outdoor time on a long leash in the yard so they can safely explore, sniff, and enjoy fresh air. I’m attentive to each dog’s energy level and routine — whether that means extra playtime, slower senior strolls, or sticking closely to feeding and medication schedules. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping your pet’s routine consistent to reduce stress. I follow all instructions carefully, keep doors and gates secure, and provide updates with photos so you always feel connected and reassured. My goal is to create a calm, safe environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for at all times. 🐾

About: 🐾 About Me: Professional Care, Puppy-Level Enthusiasm! Hi, I'm Natasha! I know how tough it can be to leave your furry family members behind, which is why my goal is to give you total peace of mind. Whether your dog is a high-energy adventurer who needs a structured routine, a growing puppy working on their manners, or a sweet senior who just wants a quiet couch to snooze on, I tailor my care to exactly what your dog needs to feel safe and happy. Why Choose Me? Structured & Mindful Approach: I don't just "watch" dogs; I pay close attention to their body language, routines, and comfort levels. If you are working on specific training milestones (like crate training, loose-leash walking, or socialization), I am happy to help maintain that consistency while you're away! Active & Adaptive: From energetic hikes and outdoor play to calm, enriching indoor puzzles, I adapt the day's pacing to match your dog's age and energy level. Clear, Daily Communication: You'll get regular updates and photo check-ins so you never have to wonder how your pup is doing. I maintain a structured, full-time schedule that allows me to dedicate my days entirely to pet care. I don’t believe in leaving pets alone for long stretches, so your furry family member will enjoy a highly attentive environment. Whether maintaining a progressive exercise routine for an active dog, supporting a service candidate puppy working on their focus and manners, or providing quiet company for a senior pet, my schedule adapts to their needs. You can rest easy knowing your pet is sticking to their comfort routine while you're away. I live in a cozy, secure, and entirely pet-friendly space that is kept clean and free of hazards. While I don’t have a private yard, I completely make up for it with a highly active and structured routine! Outdoor time is intentional and frequent. We will go on regular, timed leash walks and local outdoor adventures tailored entirely to your dog’s age and energy level. Inside, the vibe is peaceful and relaxing—perfect for refueling after a good walk. I have plenty of room for crates, beds, and indoor enrichment puzzles to keep your pup happy and content.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats through overnight stays, drop-in visits and dog walking. I’ve cared for pets with many different personalities, from energetic and playful to shy, nervous and anxious. I’m patient and take the time to let each pet become comfortable with me at their own pace. I follow their regular routines, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime and lots of love and attention. I especially love seeing a shy/anxious pet begin to trust me and become my little shadow. Building relationships with pets and having families trust me to care for them again is one of my favourite parts of pet sitting. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a kindergarten educator, I’m available for morning visits before work, evenings, weekends, holidays, and overnight stays during the school year. During the summer, I have much greater flexibility and am available throughout the day, allowing me to accommodate a wider range of schedules and your pet’s routine. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure every pet receives the time, attention, and loving care they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I believe pets are happiest in the comfort of their own home, where they can maintain their familiar routine and surroundings. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, needs, and preferences so I can provide calm, personalized care tailored to them. Before any booking, I offer a free Meet & Greet so we can get to know each other, discuss your pet’s routine, and ensure we’re the right fit for one another. I also ask all pet parents to complete a detailed intake form, which helps me learn about your pet’s routine, medical needs, preferences, and any special instructions so I can provide the best care possible. For dog walking clients, I also like to do a short practice walk so your dog can get comfortable with me before our first scheduled walk. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring, trustworthy hands.

About: Work-from-Home Dog Lover by Scenic Trails — Available all day for exercise, potty breaks, belly rubs, extra snuggles, and attentive loving care. I joined Rover because I love dogs. I work from home, which means I can give dogs lots of love and attention throughout the day. Every break is spent walking, playing, or giving belly rubs. I live beside the Collingwood trail network, so I often take dogs on longer, scenic walks through the trails or down by the water. Your pup will enjoy exercise, fresh air, and plenty of companionship. I have beautiful grassy areas around my building and access to safe, scenic trails, which makes walks enjoyable and varied for dogs. Inside, dogs are welcome to make themselves at home — whether that means snuggling on the sofa or lounging on the bed. I treat every dog like family, giving them attention, playtime, and comfort so they feel safe and loved at all times.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Growing up, my dad was a dog trainer, so I was surrounded by dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments from a young age. This gave me a strong understanding of canine behavior and how to make dogs feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m confident handling dogs on walks, whether they’re energetic, shy, or somewhere in between. I know how important routine, patience, and positive reinforcement are, and I always make sure pets get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. I also have experience caring for cats and understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. Whether your pet loves to play or prefers a quiet companion, I’m happy to provide the care they need while you’re away. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I’ll treat yours like they’re my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in caring, capable hands. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and extra time to spend with your furry family members. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddle sessions, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pet gets the attention, love, and care they deserve while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. In my home, I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and get plenty of exercise under supervision. We also have two friendly, well-socialized dogs, a Maltese and a Black Lab, who love meeting and playing with other dogs and are comfortable around cats. I always introduce pets slowly and carefully to make sure everyone feels comfortable. If your pet prefers their own space or has a different routine, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. When caring for pets in your home, I always follow your instructions to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. I’m comfortable with crating if that’s part of their routine, administering meals, going for walks, playtime, and giving them plenty of love and attention. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and well cared for, whether they’re staying with me or I’m caring for them in the comfort of their own home.

About: Happy to walk a dog or two. I usually have my kids and dog in tow on walks, but am flexible if that’s not ideal. Our 12yo dog Kutsu (medium sized border collie mix from Japan) is great with other dogs and loves to run, play and explore. He mostly just keeps to himself though and avoids conflict. I am a full time mom looking for extra cash and love dogs, and so do the kids of course. The kids are so far very gentle with our dog and other dogs we’ve had here. We aren’t hosting at this time but will again soon! We're more than happy to accommodate any special needs. We are well-versed in the cone of shame, allergies, and giving medications. I used to be a nurse so learning on the job is my specialty. We believe in positive reinforcement training and have used an e-collar in the past until it wasn’t necessary anymore. Please feel free to talk to us more about how we can support you and your best friend! I am a stay at home mom so I make my own schedule and am very flexible. I am good with last-minute or planned visits. All depends on the needs of the dog. If they like to be left alone, cool. If they need meds, cool. If they need walks all day, cool. We can accomodate!

We cannot say enough positive things about Ashley. She has helped us immensely with our puppy and has continued to not only take so much stress off of us but helped us in training our puppy and helping her grow into one happy girl. Our puppy loves our time with Ashley and my partner and I are forever grateful that we found somebody as wonderful, genuine, caring and kind as Ashley. We trust her immensely and know that our puppy is in amazing hands!

About: I have been a vet tech for over 5 years but decided that field is no longer for me. I knew I wanted to stay in the field with animals so I became a dog trainer, walker and boarder. Dogs have always been a passion of mine! I will treat your dogs just like my own.. lots of TLC 🥰 I am always around to let your fur babies out to do their business. I work very locally. We will always go for walks in the morning and evening! If you require me to live-in your home, I will need to bring along my personal dog as well. I also have a dog of my own that is super friendly and a great teacher to other dogs. I also have cameras set up around my home for extra safety.

Sara is an amazing person! I left Milo in her care for a few days, and she made sure he got his walks and always had food and water. She kept me updated, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. If I ever need someone to look after my pets again, I would absolutely choose Sara without hesitation. I highly recommend her!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Wasaga Beach

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Wasaga Beach on Rover is $26.64 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 436 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Wasaga Beach. About 87% of Wasaga Beach sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Wasaga Beach stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:

  • Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
  • House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
  • Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.

Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Wasaga Beach choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
