“Hannah did a great job watching Ragnar at our house. She took him for regular walks as we had discussed and made sure she gave him a lot of personal time and attention as he needed. Ragnar likes having humans close and constant attention and Hannah was able to provide him that security. Hannah is a very clean and tidy person and it was nice to return to a clean and well kept house. Hannah pays extra attention to detail and would provide me with regular updates and pictures of Ragnar when she took care of Ragnar. I arrived a day earlier from my travel and Hannah offered to walk Ragnar for an extra day although I was back early from my trip. I would definitely recommend Hannah for house sitting as well as walking your dogs.”
“Rebooked with Danielle so this was the 2nd that she watched our dogs. She is reliable, super kind and provided updates about the dogs throughout the day. Will definitely rebook again next time we go away”
“Brianna is a lovely person who is easy to communicate with. Sophie was happy to see her and very comfortable and relaxed when I got back. It was easy to see she was well cared for. I will definitely have Brianna stay with Sophie and house sit again. I highly recommend her!”
About: I have 13 years of experience with dogs and used to rescue dogs as a side job, helping find them new homes. I’ve owned many dogs of different sizes and breeds, and I see them as loving, kind-natured pets that deserve the very best care. I have experience with everything from medical needs to caring for new puppies and training, and I’m patient and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. I’m available anytime. I can help with whatever is needed, including overnight care, visits, and bathroom breaks. I love spending time playing with pets and giving them one-on-one attention, and I always make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. All their needs will be fully taken care of, whether that includes medical care, one-on-one attention, feeding routines, or following specific schedules and detailed care instructions. I am patient, responsible, and committed to making sure your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Megan was absolutely wonderful during her six-night stay caring for our animals. We came home to happy, healthy pets, and it was obvious they were all very well looked after. Our rabbits and chickens received excellent care, and everything was clean and well maintained. She also did an amazing job caring for our rabbit, Marshmellow, who needed medication twice a day while recovering. She was excellent with his treatments, and thanks to her attentive care, he’s now completely healed. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our animals were in such capable and caring hands while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Megan again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable pet sitter. Megan took care of my two dogs, cat, saltwater aquarium, 11 chickens and 12 bunnies. Thank you, Megan!”
“Alexandra took really great care of Willow for me for a few hours a few days after her spay so I could attend some prior commitments. She was super accommodating for short notice and was great about a tweak in the schedule change. Thank you so much for handling her with care and keeping her company for me! She loved having you here! Would happily contact Alexandra again to take care of my girl 😊”
About: I have experience with dog sitting a dog with anxiety and able to give medications.Also have experience feeding dogs raw food. Plus I have two Huskies of my own that I raise from puppies. I have experience with taking dogs for walks and to the dog park where they can be themselves. I'm currently looking after one dog occasionally when the person goes away. So I have alot of time in my day to look after other animals. I own two Huskies but my partner can look after them when I'm away. I always put the dog safety first and make sure they are not getting in anything they shouldn't. On a walk and I see another dog coming I will pull over to one side and let the dogs pass. If you have a dog with anxiety, I will listen to there body language. When they say it's enough it's enough. I will leave or turn around and go home. If they need to decompress I will give them time to do that.
“Hannah was wonderful in guiding us through our first Rover experience. We were nervous leaving our two dogs with someone other than family or close friends for the first time and Hannah reassured us every step of the way. She took the best care of our girls and updated us everyday with pictures. It is very apparent Hannah cares for the animals she looks after. She was professional and respectful of our home. We would not hesitate to book Hannah for our future dog sitting needs.”
About: Hi! I am a Law student at Dalhousie who would love to help with all your pet-related needs. I love going on long walks, hanging out in parks, and spending as much time as I can outside - which would be even better with a dog (I am missing mine from home)! I grew up with a small poodle in my family for most of my life, alongside lots of other pets (hamsters, guinea pigs, fish, hermit crabs), and just adopted a puppy with my family at home, so I am happy to look after a pet of any shape or size! I am also comfortable administering medications (oral / injected) through experience caring for my family dog in her older years. I live in a house of 4 animal-loving students, with a yard and located just a block away from The Commons and close to some off-leash dog parks, so your pet would be able to make lots of visits to play! I can accommodate up to two dogs, but would prefer to look after just one pet (cat/dog/other) at a time to provide maximum care and attention. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions :) I’m a full-time student, but am very flexible around classes. I am free Monday afternoons, Thursday mornings and afternoons, and flexible Friday and on weekends, and I would love to care for your furry friends during these free times! As I typically only accept one pet (or household of pets) at a time, I aim to give my greatest attention to your pets to ensure their safety and happiness! I want your pets to feel at home, even in my house, so they are welcome to make themselves comfortable wherever they feel best.
“Lyne is a wonderful person and an incredible dog sitter. I would highly recommend her to care for your dogs. My dogs love her and I feel relaxed knowing she is giving them such love and care when I have to be away from them.”
About: Hi! I'm Beth! 👋🏻 I've spent my whole life (nearly four decades!) with pets, and have been petsitting for family, friends, and neighbours for many years. Pet care is something I'm incredibly passionate about...so much so that I volunteer weekly at the SPCA. 🐶🐱 I'm confident with many personality types, comfortable with animal cues and body language, and familiar with obedience and training techniques.👌🏻 My primary goal is for your pet to feel safe and secure with me in your absence...whether it's going for a little adventure, cuddling on the couch, playing on the floor, or simply providing a peaceful presence, I'm committed to giving your pets my undivided attention...and quite probably a silly nickname! 💕 I have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments; small animals ranging from birds to hedgehogs to chinchillas to aquarium species; and have spent my fair share of time caring for farm animals, as well! I am able to administer medications and cater to any special diets or other requirments necessary for the healthy care of your pet. 🐾🐾 I look forward to connecting with you so we can further discuss how I can help! 😊 I accept bookings 7 days a week for house-sits! *I am currently taking bookings up until June 26th, as I will then be away until September.* Trust is essential, and providing you with peace of mind is of the utmost importance to me. I always follow owner's routines for feeding, walks, medication, playtime, and comfort. I provide consistent attention, maintain cleanliness, and send regular updates to ensure pets (and pet parents) feel safe, happy, and secure!
“Being completely new to Rover, we were a little intimidated and skeptical of the process at first; however knowing we needing a sitter, something kept me drawn to Amber’s profile. Let me tell you that, within five minutes of our initial meet & greet any and all worries we’re completely washed away. Her personality is beautiful, her love and passion for dogs shined through and it was evident that she had much knowledge and experience in the field. I just knew that our dog was in very good hands. While away, she gave us just enough updates to reassure us that everything was going well back home and that we could enjoy our time away. If you are in need of a dog sitter, do not hesitate to reach out to Amber .. we are so glad we did!”

My schedule is variable and I can schedule walks/drop ins/care in morning, midday, or evening hours. I have a small backyard and enjoy going to for walks to the nearby parks and trails. I can board small sized dogs in my home.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wolfville
Danielle was great with Blue! She watched him for two nights and kept me updated the whole time. She was on time, friendly, and comfortable with dogs. Blue got lots of walks and seemed happy and well cared for. I’d definitely book her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.
Megan took phenomenal care of my 4 cats while I was on an extended weekend getaway! Megan was able to administer my 20 year old asthmatic kitty's inhaler and kept a close eye on my kitten's mystery allergies. She kept me updated on how they were doing, and the house was spotless when I got home!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Wolfville on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 28 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wolfville. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Wolfville maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Wolfville walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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 Wolfville 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!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, identity check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
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.
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.
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.
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.
