1. Mélanie P.
“I was very hesitant to book again on Rover because my first house sitting experience wasn't the best. So I was very pleasantly surprised with our experience with Melanie. She was extremely attentive to both our cat and dog and made them both feel loved. She would send me photos and videos of playing with the pets and getting right on the floor with them. She spent a lot of time playing with them and giving them lots of love and attention. She followed all of my directions and went above and beyond. She was very communicative and asked anything she wasn't sure about. Our cat wasn't eating well when we first left so she let me know right away and then we worked together to get him eating more. Our dog has some medical issues and needs to take medications 4 times daily, which Melanie did a great job of. He never missed a dose! She shoveled (a lot!), took the garbage out, did all the laundry that she used while she was here and kept the house looking great. We felt very comfortable knowing that both of our fur babies were in great hands with her and could thus enjoy our vacation. I would highly recommend her and will be booking with her again very soon :)”

“Christie did a great job house/dogsitting. The house was in perfect shape when I got back and the dogs seemed very relaxed with her. I would definitely hire her again.”
3. Caitlin B.
“This is the third time Caitlin has stayed with us, would be the fourth but the last minute thing that she was able to help us out with we didn’t end up needing. Everyone loves her! Caitlin is our go to always.”
4. Jason H.
“I was excited to hear that Jason signed on to work with Rover. I have known him in a professional capacity for several years now and have come to appreciate the wonderful relationship he has with his canine companion Henry. Jason loves his dog and strives to give Henry a balance of consistent exercise, training, affection, play and rest resulting in a healthy, happy, engaging pet. I have no doubt that he will do the same with your animal! I know Jason to pay attention to details and he works hard to do well in whatever he decides to do. Tell him what your pet needs, what your expectations are and leave Jason and Henry to do the rest!”
5. Lynda R.
“It is my pleasure that I provide a testimonial for Lynda. I have known her for more than 30years and I can say that Lynda is one of the most caring people I know. Her stellar career working with children has proven that she is committed to making sure everyone around her are safe, healthy and happy. That commitment easily extends to include her pets as it is evident their health and happiness is of upmost importance to her. She has been a wonderful mom to her son and many fur babies while I have known her. She has a soft spot for all animals, domestic and wild. The pet owners who use Lynda’s services will find her very friendly, respectful and very responsible. She has an ability to make all people and their pets feel at home and free to be themselves. Lynda loves nature, enjoys walks and she is a lot of fun to be around. I believe she would make a wonderful pet sitter.”
6. Tamra T.
“Tamra is lovely! She always does a great job - she is reliable and kind. She sent daily photo updates. I never worry about my dog with Tamra. I hope to work with Tamra again. She is my go to sitter for my dog!”
7. Jack G.
“Jack is a very responsible and loving dog walker. Not only does he walk our dog daily, he shows her his love playing fetch in the backyard and teaching her tricks😁 I highly recommend Jack to help you with caring and showing the love your pets need.”
8. Stephanie K.
“I would not hesitate to leave my pet with Stephanie. Her love for dogs is genuine and it shows. Her home is perfectly set up for dogs. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
9. Katie S.
“Toby and Misty thoroughly enjoyed being taken care of by Katie and her step son. They spent lots of time outside and played and hung out around the fire. They also spent time with our three chickens. We were thoroughly pleased with Katie's communication and care. My husband and I were able to go on our business trips at ease, knowing that everything and everyone was in great hands. We would happily ask Katie to watch our fur-babies again.”
10. Kayla K.
“Kayla took such great care of our three pups over a long weekend away! She updated us all the time and was so patient with our crazy crew. I had such comfort knowing she was there and that means everything while we’re away. Thank you Kayla!”
11. Jean F.
“This was my 2nd time having Jean look after my dogs in my home. I would highly recommend her, she took absolutely the best care of them while I was away. She is very accommodating with any of my requests and my house was nice and clean when I got home - will use her again for sure!!”
12. Amanda A.
“My cats just adore Amanda and they immediately felt comfortable and relaxed around her. Within a few minutes of her arriving, my male cat was climbing on her to cuddle. She is definitely one of my cats’ favourite people now and I would trust her with anytime with my cats and house. Amanda comes in, cares for my cats, and leaves - she leaves no trace when she goes. The only way I know she was there is because my cats are actually happier than when I left. I couldn’t recommend her more!”
13. Baher M.
“Baher was lovely to work with! Very responsive, flexible and prompt. Not to mention, he took great care of our senior pets. Baher was able to give our dog and cat their medications on time and took extra care to review the process and steps! Would definitely rebook with Baher in the future.”
14. Enma B.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets for 6 plus years. Whether it be my own or family friend's, animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! I’m currently working part time and have more time in the afternoon to look after your four legged friend! Afternoon works best for my work schedule. I currently have a fenced in backyard and a dog of my own that can keep your pet company while you’re at work or on vacation!
15. Dekoda M.
“Dekoda grew up with animals and has always taken care of her family pets. She is very responsible with making sure they are well taken care of. She has helped me take care of my dogs when I ask her to. I highly recommend booking with Dekoda.”
16. Kelsey L.
About: Hello! I’ve pet-sat, walked dogs, and cared for animals in friends and family’s homes for over 14 years. Looking to do it more often and expand my clientele. I love animals and really enjoy pet-sitting in either my home or yours. I work 2 minutes from home so taking care of them during the day is very easy. These jobs allow me to spend time with animals which I absolute love! Please note that I’ve had this app for a while but only decided to take on clients a couple weeks ago. I am very excited to begin this pet sitting journey through Rover! I can provide excellent references if needed. My schedule is very flexible and I can work with pet owners to figure out a schedule that works best for us both (and of course your pets). :) As previously mentioned, I am unable to have animals of my own, so I really enjoy spending quality time with the animals I care for.
17. Amanda S.
“It’s a pleasure to recommend Amanda to pet parents looking to connect with the right pet caregiver. I have known Amanda for almost 5 years; never have I met a more thoughtful and kind hearted person. She has a genuine love for animals and people. My senior dog (RIP) loved Amanda who showered her with attention, affection and many walks to the local park. Amanda’s one of those people who are so organized and efficient that they accomplish twice as much as I would yet always makes time to say hello with a smile. Hire Amanda, you can rest assured that your pet will be cared for just as you would and will likely have cuddles and belly rubs too.”
18. Tola A.
“Tola is always punctual and reliable. She is able to understand dogs' needs and handle them how they should be handled. She is very caring, patient and good at communicating. When it comes to rescheduling, she is always flexible and willing to accommodate depending on the situations. She is approachable and can always bond with dogs quickly. My dogs are comfortable with her presence and I am happy to have her help me out when needed. I trust her in all aspects and would not hesitate to recommend her as a pet sitter.”
19. Laura H.
About: Hi there! My name is Laura, and I am an animal and outdoor lover! I have grown up around dogs of all breeds and sizes. My love for animals started when I was young and has been growing ever since. I have previous experience pet sitting for both cats and dogs. I am able to walk your dog around your neighbourhood, on trails or at a local dog park. I am also able to feed your dog if needed or offer them treats (with your permission). I have flexible hours throughout the day on both weekdays and weekends, therefore I am confident that I will be able to meet your needs as a pet owner! I am currently working full time from home, therefore I have plenty of availability during the day to ensure your dog is looked after and gets outside. Although I do not have a fenced in yard i have easily accessible grass areas. If you are interested in boarding daycare there are no pets in the home.
