“10/10 Gillian was great with my 4 cats! She went above and beyond! She was very professional and friendly, and the cats really loved her. Thanks Gillian, I'll be booking with you again in the future. :)”

“Rayane has a wonderful calm nature to her that made our doggo immediately like her. She's attentive and meets the doggo where they're at. We'll definitely have her see Barbie again!”

“Sarah is 10/10 amazing! Not only did we feel immediately comfortable with her, so did our 3 cats. She took such great care of our kitties while we were away for a few days and made sure she checked in morning and night with pictures, updates etc. Meeting her has been such a huge relief, knowing we can travel and that we now have a reliable and caring pet sitter. We love Sarah!”

About: Hi, I’m Alex! I’ve been caring for dogs, especially Border Collies, since 2007 and have built a deep understanding of their personalities and needs. Growing up, I spent countless hours walking my dog, exploring trails, and using those walks as a peaceful escape. This connection to nature and animals has fueled my lifelong love for dogs of all breeds. When my Border Collie became a senior, I was her primary caretaker. From carrying her up and down stairs when she needed help to spending quality one-on-one time with her, I learned how to adapt to a dog’s unique needs at every stage of life. Currently, I live with two family dogs, Skye and Piper, and my cat, Lulu, which has given me even more experience with multi-pet households. I’m very mindful of dog behavior and body language, ensuring they always feel comfortable and safe. Having had dogs that weren’t always social with others, I’m skilled at managing walks and being aware of our surroundings. I always work on a dog’s terms, respecting their boundaries, and letting them come to me when they’re ready. Whether it’s a high-energy pup needing an adventure or a senior dog needing gentle care, I’m here to provide tailored attention and love for your furry friend. I can’t wait to meet your dog and learn more about their personality and preferences! I currently feed and walk my two border collies and cat everyday. My cat likes to come along in her carrier backpack for our daily walks. And of course I give them treats when they are demanded (in moderation). I will talk with my pets whenever they come into the room. Since I have border collies we are constantly playing with the toys, both inside and outside.
About: Hi! I'm Taya, a 37-year-old lifelong dog owner offering dog walking, pet sitting, and in-home pet care in KW and the surrounding area. I've spent my life raising large breeds, and the dogs that have shaped me most weren't the easy ones. I know from personal experience the anxiety that comes with finding a trusted person to take care of and understand the needs of a strong and reactive dog. My Cane Corso (147 lbs) was reactive — dogs, bicycles, scooters, you name it — and together we developed what I call defensive walking: staying proactive, reading the environment ahead, and keeping situations calm before they escalate. I know how to manage powerful dogs on a leash and how to advocate for reactive dogs in the real world. My Rottweiler had seizures, which means I'm also experienced in recognizing and responding to seizure episodes and comfortable administering medication on a schedule or in an emergency. I don't panic — I've been there. What I offer: Dog walking (including reactive and large breed dogs) Pet sitting at your home Medication administration if required I'm a responsible, experienced dog person who understands that your dog isn't just a pet. I am currently unemployed by choice. I have spent a few years in Australia and recently returned to Canada. I have all the time to dedicate towards pet care. I have a fully fenced yard with my home, with no other animals here. At your home, I will follow your rules. Pats and cuddles on the couch if it's allowed; if not, we will sit on the floor and cuddle.
“Leah is the best! I’m so grateful to her for taking care of my cat while we were away. My cat is shy, so finding someone I could trust meant a lot to me. Coming home and seeing her doing well made me very happy. Thank you, Leah, for your care and for helping us feel at ease during our trip. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful cat sitter!”

About: I’m flexible, reliable, and genuinely love being around dogs and cats! I work for myself from home, which gives me the flexibility to accommodate different routines, last-minute bookings, and pets who need a little extra attention during the day. I’ll care for your pet like they’re my own, with plenty of walks, playtime, cuddles, and attention. I’m also happy to reinforce basic training and keep active dogs entertained and engaged. Your pet’s happiness, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities! I’m self-employed and work from home, pet care can fit into my daily routine. I have the flexibility to build walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention into my day rather than leaving a dog alone for long stretches. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, whether that means an early morning walk, a midday outing, extra potty breaks, structured mealtimes, or evening snuggles. I love having a dog around while I work, and I want every pet in my care to feel comfortable, happy, and at home. I provide reliable, loving care while keeping your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. For drop-in visits, I’m happy to spend time playing, giving belly rubs, refreshing food and water, letting them out, or simply keeping them company if they’re looking for some extra attention. For walks, I’ll make sure your dog gets the exercise and enrichment they need while keeping their safety a top priority. I’m comfortable following detailed instructions and caring for pets with different routines, personalities, and needs. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away.
About: Dog mom + Shelter / Rescue worker + Dog lover + Dog trainer What sets me apart is my hands-on experience working with dogs through shelters, rescues, fostering, and caring for my own two dogs. As an independent pet care provider, I offer personalized care for dogs of all ages and personalities, including puppies, seniors, and dogs with more challenging needs. I also provide basic training support to help dogs build confidence, learn good manners, and strengthen their bond with their owners. Pet care is a major part of my routine. I work full time as a dog walker / trainer, on my free time i volunteer with rescues and shelters, and also adventure and training with my dogs every chance I get. I prioritize each pet’s needs and make sure they receive exercise, enrichment, attention, and consistent care like I would my own. I provide care based on each pet’s individual needs, routine, and personality. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping their pets comfortable by maintaining their normal schedule, including feeding, walks, playtime, enrichment, and plenty of attention. I have experience with puppies, seniors, rescues, and dogs with different temperaments, and I always prioritize safety, patience, and positive interactions. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are well cared for while they’re away.
“Hayley is absolutely amazing!! Always making sure Ella gets the most out of her time with her. Ella always gets back home tired out and so happy! 10/10 would recommend to anyone for their furry best friend ?”

“Grace is very professional and reliable. I felt totally comfortable leaving our 2 cats in her care, and she did a great job with them. She also made sure everything was clean when we got home, which I really appreciated. I definitely recommend her!”

“Melodi was a wonderful cat sitter for Bruce during my three-day trip, my first time using a sitter. Within about five minutes, Bruce was purring and comfortable with her, as if they already knew each other. She cares for cats like her own (she has a cat, Winston, who looks a lot like Bruce), and it showed in how attentive she was every single day. She sent photos and videos throughout, which gave me real peace of mind. She exceeded my expectations, and I'd recommend her without hesitation. I'll definitely book her again.”

We are happy to accommodate additional walks. Throughout the day, we make sure every pup feels loved and cared for. We’re flexible with scheduling and available for last minute bookings. We live in a spacious apartment in Waterloo Ontario, with many peaceful trails nearby and in Kitchener. We also have a big balcony for your pet to play on.

About: I grew up surrounded by animals, and most of my experience comes from caring for my own pets. Over the years, I’ve had Cocker Spaniels, Poodles, Labradors, Dachshunds, Shih Tzus, parrots, birds, and turtles, and I’ve also looked after my neighbors’ cats. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, including senior dogs and dogs with disabilities, and I always treat every pet with patience, love, and care. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. Even though I work full time, I’m organized and make sure every pet gets the time, attention, and care they need. I enjoy spending time with animals and always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for pets in my home. I am located 1 min away from Maclean Park, which offers great walking trails and a dog park for exercise and outdoor enrichment. I follow each pet’s usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. My goal is to make every pet feel at home, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: I've had dogs for over a decade and take care of my mother in law's Labradoodle when she one vacation. So well versed in all sizes of dogs Hey all I currently work weekdays but have evenings and weekends to walk and take care of all your furry friends. Can't wait to meet all of you I treat our pets with kindness and love. Walk our dog daily and spend time brushing, playing and enjoying the time I have with our animals

I work from home, which allows me to provide attentive care and flexible walk schedules throughout the day. Your pet will receive plenty of attention and enjoy a calm, comfortable stay with me. I live close to the multi use path and groomed trails. Pets will get their own room with dedicated and personalized services and regular updates to you.
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life — from raising fish and hamsters to loving guinea pigs, cats, and dogs. Right now, I share my home with my sweet dog named Winnie who is a Miniature German Shepherd and an affectionate cat, named Luna, who I’m completely obsessed with. I love observing animals’ behaviors, understanding their needs, and showering them with the affection they give (and ask for!) in return. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, I’ll make sure they feel safe, seen, and loved! Im working full time so the first thing I make sure to take care of is to feed my furbabies food and replenish their water dish. Winnie has been waiting all night to use the bathroom so I either send her out or if I have time take her on morning stroll to stretch those tiny legs. I also make sure to clean Luna’s litter no matter how un-used it was over night because of the princess that she constantly reminds me that she is! On my day offs I make sure to spend more time with Winnie outdoors whether that’s going to the dog park, extensive walks or just playing fetch in our neighbourhood! I also give Luna her attention by giving her bum scratches and pats, refilling her cat nip toy, or brushing her which she always enjoys. I will most likely be visiting my clients home mostly because Luna is uneasy around other animals. But following crating instructions, keeping doors closed when necessary, creating a calm and peaceful environment, not leaving garbages or food bags/containers or anything that can put either pet at risk.
“Harsimran was an amazing cat sitter! It was clear how much she genuinely loved and cared for my cats. She was attentive, caring, and very reliable, and her communication was excellent throughout. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pets!”

“Michelle was great with Pumpkin. She kept me informed daily about his well being, sent pictures. I was concerned about leaving him because he recently was diagnosed with diabetes. Michelle was great with his feeding and giving him his insulin. I will be using her services again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Wilmot is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $37 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 1,062 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Wilmot. About 85% of Wilmot 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.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Wilmot 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 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.
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.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, your payment method is charged at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

- 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.
