“Carmelle has dropped in on our cat several times, and has become one of her favourite people! We know our kitty is in great hands with Carmelle, and we appreciate the photos and updates she sends while we are away. Carmelle is a true animal lover, and we would recommend her to anyone seeking pet care.”
“Very smooth drop-off and pick-up. Titiksha's experience with cats was apparent during my cat's stay. Excellent communication and regular pictures. It was obvious from the pictures that my cat was very happy, relaxed, and felt safe (napping in sprawled out positions). My cat's back home now and acting like her usual playful self ❤️. Highly recommend!”
“Always grateful for Billie-Lyn and her care! She’s always very communicative, quick to respond, always leaves my house spotless, and my cats like having her around!”
“Anne did a great job of taking care of our kitties. I appreciated the update and pictures and they were very happy and well looked after when we got home. I would not hesitate to book with her again.”
“Meghan was great for a drop in visit for my cat. She took the time to chat with me a few days beforehand to make sure she knew where everything was and what my cat’s needs were. Super responsive and left a detailed report!”
“Ellen made sure that my two cats were well-fed, played with and was kind enough to send multiple pictures of them per visit. She’s dependable and took great care of my babies!”
About: I have over 5 years of pet care experience and am a proud cat parent to two cats of my own! Through caring for my cats, I've gained hands-on experience with daily feeding routines, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, grooming and understanding different personalities and behaviours. I know every pet has their own routine and preferences, and I always take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe and loved. Whether your pet enjoys interactive playtime, cuddles or simply having someone around for company, I'm happy to adjust to their needs! I understand how important it is to have peace of mind while you're away, so I'll also provide regular updates and photos during visits. I work full-time but have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my day! I'm generally available for drop-in visits before work (around 9 a.m.) or after work (around 6 p.m.). On weekends, I have more flexibility throughout the day for visits, walks and playtime. I'm happy to coordinate with pet owners to find a schedule that works best for their furry friends! I want your pets to feel safe, comfortable and loved in their own home while you're away! I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I'll always follow your care instructions and respect their comfort level.
“Maggie was amazing. She stayed in our house with our two cats while we were on vacation. Not only were our cats happy upon our return, but she also took great care of our house. We highly recommend her.”
About: Life-long animal lover. I grew up with both cats & dogs. Currently have 3 cats and 1 dog who are much loved members of our household. I have fostered >70 animals over the past 5 years including ~10 dogs and >60 cats of all ages, from neonates to seniors as well as whelping mothers. Personally, have participated in many training sessions and workshops with my own dog and have helped train & socialize our numerous foster dogs. Overall, I’m an animal lover who has been caring for animals in my own home for years and, with a bit more time on my hands now, would like to extend services. Currently, have both weekdays and weekends available for walks/drop-in visits. Boarding for cats is available on an intermittent basis and depends on whether I have a foster cat at any point in time. Cat visitors in my home get their own bedroom outfitted with litter box, cat trees, and toys. We have a friendly, neutral resident dog and three resident cats.
“Eliza has been a great help while I'm busy with long on call shifts at work. My pooch looks forward to his visits with her and it's a great reassurance knowing he's in good hands. Eliza is quick to respond and does a great job to accommodate our scheduling needs. Thanks so much!”
“Arissa ensured we had nothing to worry about while our babies were in her care. She asked the right questions so that we knew our pets' little quirks and routines were taken care of. It's clear Arissa really loves animals and is quick to understand their needs. I would 10/10 enlist Arissa again and recommend her to anyone I know. No stress, happy vacation!”
About: I have had pets all my life and I have several years of hands-on experience caring for animals. In high school I worked at a dog daycare, after I graduated I worked at a pet store for about a year. For the past 2 and a half years I’ve worked at an animal shelter, where I have gained lots of experience caring for lots of animals with all different personalities, needs, and medical requirements. I have 3 cats from there, they are all blind and two of them are also deaf. Caring for them has given me lots of experience caring for pets with disabilities and helping them thrive. One of my cats requires a daily medication due to anxiety and I have other experience with other kinds of medications due to my other cats going through surgeries in the past. Every pet deserves all the love they can get! I care deeply about all pets getting the care they need and making sure they are comfortable and they feel safe and happy! I am working full-time. I work Tuesday-Saturday. I am free all day on Mondays and on Sunday afternoons. From Tuesday-Saturday I am available anytime after 5pm. I will follow the clients instructions on what to do in their own home and how to care for their pets in the best way possible.
About: I currently work at a doggy daycare and am in school to become a veterinary assistant, so I have experience caring for all different kinds of dogs and animals!

I work 1 day a week, so other than that all of my time is free and flexible to work around your schedule and your needs! I promise to take as good of care of your fur babies as I do of my own! I care for them in the comfort of your own home! So they don’t need to get used to a whole different environment. I do daily drop-ins, dog walks, and overnight pet sitting.

“My partner and I had anxiety about leaving our cats alone with a stranger to come feed them, but Mikayla put those worries to rest. She treated both of them with love and care and I would definitely recommend her services to anyone!”
“Carl was wonderful with our cats. We came home to happy kitties. They missed us but benefitted from having Cael provide tlc while we were away. Our older kitty was stubbornly avoiding Cael until the last day - when she came out and acted like she hadn’t been rude the whole week lol. Will absolutely book Cael again.”
“Lucy is a damaged girl from her life before being seized by the SPCA and adopted by me. I am rarely away for a long time, but when I am, she requires some solid human contact and petting/brushing twice each day or she can feel isolated and abandoned. When I came home after more than two weeks away, Lucy was calm and very chill. This to me was a sign that Signy spent lots of time with her and made her feel cared for and she was a happy cat. I am very pleased with Signy and recommend her highly. I will be adding Signy to my favourites list and I will use her again.”
“Lindsey did a wonderful job! She arrived on our requested days and spent time feeding our babies and making sure they had company while we were away. I will definitely reach out the next time our pets need care.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Winnipeg
We couldn't ask for a better sitter! They visited our cats daily, made sure they were fed their wet food, and spent quality time playing with them so they didn't get lonely. The daily photo updates and communication gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Reliable, attentive, and incredibly trustworthy—we will definitely be booking them again!
It became evident very early in that we had chosen the right pet sitter with Christine. She has a sincerity about her that made us feel secure. That feeling was quickly affirmed when receiving daily pics - videos and updates from her. We could see that our cat felt comfortable and safe w her- satisfying our main objective. As to the security of our home- she was top notch - surprising us with extras like reporting on the condition of our yard and neighbourhood after the bad storm - removing the sitting water from our screen house roof and taking care of smaller but important details like mail. Our cat looked as fat on our return as before we left! Highly recommend!
I had a wonderful experience with Duha! She took such great care of my cat, kept me updated, and made sure my cat was comfortable while I was away. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my cat was in such caring hands. Thank you so much for your kindness and excellent care of Kiwi!
Safia was wonderful with our cat, Wall-E. She stepped in on very short notice, which was a huge help, and kept us updated throughout our time away with messages and photos. It was clear that Wall-E was well cared for, and it gave us real peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Safia was reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent pet sitter.

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.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

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.
