About: I have loved dogs forever. As a teenager, I dogsat for all my neighbours. From a bull mastiff to a Yorkshire terrier, I will walk, play, feed, and clean after your fur child. I currently work a 9-5 office job, with part-time work from home. No problems walking your dog while you make your family dinner. I am free anytime to dog sit. I am a hands on person, so your fur baby will never be alone outside. Ready, willing, and able to follow your dog’s preferred schedule!
“Erika has eased into her new role with our dogs. This was her first week and she followed instructions well which included giving one of the dogs medications. She sent pictures to show what the dogs were up to and let us know when something was a typical. We are impressed with her communication and positive attitude. So far, the boys love her.”
About: I’ve taken care of my dog, nicely and well, and also I trained it. She became the smartest dog what neighbourhood's were seen. I have a job with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of free time. I enjoy spending time in nature and think it would be a perfect fit to go with dogs I have an animal-friendly home with a nice backyard, and I'm happy to walk dogs or care for them there. I am also willing to visit clients' homes.
About: Both of my parents are veterinarians so I’ve grown up around animals my whole life. I’m a registered nurse myself and I love working with people but animals have always been my passion. I work full time during the week but weekends I’m totally available. I do have some flexibility during the week days but I prefer care for the weekends as I have more time. I keep my dogs leashed while on walks. If I’m on a trail I have longer leashes that let them have more freedom but I always make sure I can see them.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, caring for pets of all ages, breeds, sizes, and needs. I’ve completed numerous house-sitting stays with a wide variety of dogs, including dogs with different levels of reactivity. I was raised with German Shorthaired Pointers and have extensive hands-on experience with dogs. My experience ranges from puppies as young as two weeks old to senior dogs of all sizes. I’m comfortable administering medications, bandaging and monitoring clean wounds, and caring for a variety of farm animals. I also worked as a stable hand for several years at multiple horse farms. For four years, I cared for my neighbour’s three Sheepdogs and maintained her home while she worked in Toronto four days a week. I’ve also cared for my aunt’s Irish Wolfhounds, Whippets, Cattle Dog, and cats while she travels. While you’re away, I’m happy to help with household tasks such as watering plants, tending gardens, bringing in mail, and keeping your home maintained. I know how hard it can be to leave your animals with someone else, and I want you to have peace of mind knowing they’re receiving the same love, attention, and care I would give my own. Please note: I offer house sitting in my clients’ homes, dog walking, and drop-in visits. For Day Care and Boarding, please see those sections on Rover for availability! ;) I am currently working part-time therefore, I am able to adjust my schedule around to be able to assist with you animals however I may also need to adjust your animals schedule minorly to work with mine as well. I can be as flexible as possible and am happy to work with pet owners to figure out how to help them best. I can follow instructions proficiently on any way you have your home set up. All i may need is a detailed list of feeding times, amount of walks or any other instructions an owner may find important. I am happy to do whatever you may need.
“Kaylee was a great help to us while we were gone for 3 weeks on a trip abroad. We had her come by in the mornings to take care of our dog Robin who is a shy 60 pounds German Shepherd mix. She sent me daily updates and photos and even went so far as cleaning our cat litter and bathing Robin (no easy feat) without being asked to! When I returned home everything was clean and in order and the pets were happy and taken care of. I was really satisfied with her services!”
About: I've always had dogs most of my adult life. The best compliment i get is how well they behave and everyone wants a puppy from my dogs hoping to have the same dog. I'm now retired and very active and hoping to be able to take your active dog for a trail walk. Or sometimes just sit around but not my favorite thing to do. I live in my own home with a fenced yard but much prefer to pet sit at your place where i would not disturb your best friends routine as i do pay close attention to detail.
About: I have raised two dogs from puppies. I am a believer in the exercise/discipline/affection cycle of raising calm dogs. I can ride a bike during dog walks (if trained or I can train). I am retired, and can help your family out if you are at work/school during the day. I can do an evening visit if that works with your family (e.g., after dinner). I will walk and play with your dog as needed, following the cycle of exercise, then discipline and then affection. I am in good shape, and can handle a few good walks per day.
“Melissa was amazing! I had my usual person who checks in on my cats when I’m away cancel last minute. I discovered Rover and nervously gave it a shot. Melissa answered my inquiry quickly and answered my questions and arranged to come meet Bruce & Giggs before I left. Upon meeting her, she was lovely and made me feel more comfortable in leaving my guys in her hands. She was very accommodating and kept me up to date when she would pop in. The pictures were nice to see in her updates. Especially the one where she won Bruce over and he snuggled with her 😊 I trust an animal’s instincts about a person every time 😊 I would definitely use her services again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Many sitters respond to requests in under an hour. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once.
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 Woodslee 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. 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.
