“Madison and Jeffrey were absolutely AMAZING with my Great Dane Ollie. He’s an anxious boy, with some food sensitivities, so I was afraid he was going to have a rough time. Nope. He enjoyed his time with Madison & Jeffrey — which is crazy because normally he doesn’t like men. They sent me updates while I was in Mexico, which was SUPER awesome of them! Overall 5 billion stars out of 5. I’ll never leave Ollie with anyone else ever again! They made him feel at home and eased my aching heart having to leave him behind for 9 days. I can’t say anything but extremely positive things about Madison and Jeffrey. Seriously, you guys are AWESOME!”
“Pranit is so good with Maverick. He comes home relaxed and well-mannered, which tells me that Pranit really worked with him to continue our puppy training while we were gone. We get great updates and feel totally confident that Maverick is having a blast with Pranit!”
“Norman had the best time getting spoiled by Bren. She was so accommodating, and kind with our senior pup it is obvious she really cares for her pups. Im not sure he wanted to come home! 😁. 100% recommended.”
About: Being a person who has had at least one pet beside them at any given time in life, I am an animal lover of all sizes and varieties. With over a decade's experience in pet ownership, I have cared for dogs (many different sizes/breeds), cats, bunnies, birds, and more just to list a few. My best friend is an energetic Border Collie who loves to meet new friends. I will do my best in ensuring that your pet will have the best time when they are with us. I have a lot of flexibility and am looking to lend a hand to fellow pet owners in maintaining their pets happy and healthy mental and physical states. No more destroyed furniture because your pet was bored and lonely. We look forward to meeting you and your best friend!
“This is our second time booking with Eden and Jacob. They are fantastic and we will definitely be using them as our primary choice for pet sitting in the future. I know our golden Toby had a great first time with them when he had the biggest excitement-butt-wiggles at seeing Eden the second time we dropped him off. They took great care of him even with his young pup energy. We highly recommend them if you are looking for a pet sitter!”
“Khushbu has a clear love of animals and is a fantastic pet parent. Khushbu asked lots of good questions to make sure that our Coco would be well taken care of. We got plenty of updates and it was comforting to know that things were going well. I would recommend Khushbu without reservations.”
“Behnaz looked after my girl Maggie Mae for 3 nights on short notice. She was fast on communications, had a lot of questions during the meet and greet and sent regular photos and updates. Maggie Mae can be an anxious and reactive dog. She was calm and happy with Behnaz. I will definitely book Behnaz in for Maggie Mae care in the future.”
“It was the first time I used the sitter for my dog. We left our dog with Adam for four days. Adam is a great pet sitter! He is very friendly and communicative. I received the message about my dog every day, along with photos. My dog looked very relaxed and pleased during her stay. I highly recommend Adam for his service. I will leave my dog again with Adam whenever it is needed.”
“Shannon watched our dog Riley while we were away for a family trip. We got frequent pictures and videos and we could tell she was having a great time! It makes it easier to go on a vacation knowing Riley is well cared for. :) Very happy pup!”
“Olivia was great with Reilly. We got pictures of our boy enjoying himself, was great to communicate with and our doggo was in a great mood when we picked him up. Will definitely leave our pets in her care again!”
“Alysha and her family were such gracious hosts! She accepted a last minute booking, kept me up to date and accommodated last minute changes. I would absolutely recommend having your fur friend stay with her, I know I will be rebooking again in the future! :)”
About: I love taking care of pups and taking them for walks. I would love to work together to provide loving care for your pets. Cannot wait to meet you! I am currently working part time and from home, so I am available to look after your pets in my free time. With 2 children off to university this year, my schedule is much freer! I would follow the pet owners' instructions and respect their home and their rules. I can transport pets to their favourite places for walks and exercise.
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Waterloo is $50

Behnaz was great! She helped us when Daisy wasn’t feeling well to begin with and was willing to take her last minute. It was a huge help for us. She sent update pictures which eased our mind and made us glad Daisy seemed happy while we were away! Would book with Behnaz again :)
Qi C did a wonderful job taking care of our cockapoo Bella. She is an anxious dog by nature, but Qi C was very attentive and loving with her, which helped her to settle in. We got photos and updates throughout the day so we didn’t worry, and when we picked her up Bella seemed happy. We will use Qi C again in the future.
My giant breed dog, Sunny, loved his stay with Micki! He's not always the easiest, but she handled him like a pro! I got updates and pictures daily, and he seemed genuinely happy and comfortable at her place, even though it was the first time he stayed somewhere other than home. I would highly recommend her services! Thanks so much for everything, Micki!
Priyanka and her family were wonderful to work with. We recently booked our dog Ted in for a weeks family vacation, and will absolutely be booking again. We did a meeting prior to our booking to ensure fitment, and were warmly welcomed at their home. It was clean, and felt very warm. Once we agreed to move forward, everything went well and as agreed upon. Drop-off was easy, we were not rushed, and Ted was given immediate access to explore the home. We were given morning and evening updates, including many pictures and videos so we felt comfortable in knowing how he was adjusting. Ted was excited to see us at pick-up, but we could tell he missed the family and his new friend Link for a few days prior to leaving. Dont hesitate, I highly recommend Priyanka and her famiky in caring for your furry loved ones.
Our boy Happy has stayed with Jason and his family for multiple short and long term stays this summer. Each time they have provided wonderful, loving care of Happy - with generous and frequent updates of his wellbeing and day to day activities. Jason has been extremely professional, communicative and flexible with our requests - even providing extended care when our flight was delayed. Happy loves walks and being near others and Jason has been accommodating his need with many long walks in the nearby parks, taking him along for outdoor events and couch cuddles. Thank you for taking care of our family while we were away! If we can give even more stars with our review we would
Thank you so much, Brittany. I went away on my holiday and felt Hazel was in the best chance possible. I know you are one of Hazel‘s best friends. Thank you for taking care of our house for leaving it. Clean and best of all caring for Hazel like she was your own. I very much appreciate the service separately provides.

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.
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 .
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.
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.
