“We are so glad to have found Kelly! Our dog is anxious and dog-reactive and is very sensitive with handling/petting, so we have to be very careful about choosing people who can take care of him, but Kelly has a lot of prior knowledge & experience with fearful, anxious, and reactive dogs, and she has been wonderful! She goes above and beyond and does such a great job. We feel totally comfortable with her housesitting when watching our dog. Totally recommend her to anyone!”
“We have used Greyson’s drop-in visits and overnight stays for both our two cats and two dogs. Greyson always provides a detailed report and will ensure she meets your expectations.”
“Kaylee is great, my anxious little dog warmed up pretty quick and was always happy to see her, as was kitty. She communicates well also. Thanks for taking care of her Kaylee! I will 100% book with you again.”
“Mya was wonderful when meeting our dog Goose! He's a sensitive boy and Mya was very accommodating and took the time to really understand and be respectful of his particular needs & quirks. Excited to have had the good luck of finding Mya, I know we'll be super comfortable entrusting Goose with her!”
“Silvia is the best!!! She met with my three cats a couple days before so I could introduce them and show her around. She came at the same time everyday, and was sooo great!! She sent lots and lots of pictures and was absolutely amazing with communication. I felt completely at ease entrusting her with the care of my furry family members. She even captured the trust of my skiddish cat who doesn’t usually warm up to strangers. She is very trustworthy and absolutely the type of person you want pet sitting your animals :) Will absolutely book again!”
“My partner and I love Marla so much!!! She is so thoughtful and sweet and good to our dogs, and she’s very communicative and always shows up during the scheduled time!!”
“Once again, Jenna watched over our cat Archer and our home! Her Rover cards are the best!!! You know you've found the best guardian when you dont give a second thought to whether all is well! Complete peace of mind! Thank you again, Jenna!”
“The most wonderful experience with Rover I’ve ever had - it was truly a blessing finding Christine. I almost feel hesitant to leave this review, only because I don’t want her to be too busy with other clients so I can keep her for myself ? LOL! From the bottom of my heart, I can express nothing but the truest gratitude for how well Christine cared for my two dogs and cat. She sent me pictures and descriptions of each drop-in visit, and even went as far as cleaning up their anxiety- driven diarrhea mess from the carpet and taking our garbage to the curb. If you’re looking for someone to truly care for your animals, this woman is the real deal and I honestly cannot recommend her enough! Thank you beyond words, Christine, for loving our babies as your own.”
“Rani is Heaven sent! We had a prior arrangement that was not going well and Rani was available and flexible and soooo good with our cat, Loki. She really gave him the love and affection that we would have, which is exactly what we were looking for! You will not go wrong with leaving your fur babies in her hands. Thank you again, Rani! You restored our peace. God bless you!”
“Alexis was absolutely amazing! I would highly recommend booking with her! She is super attentive to your fur babies & treats them as her own! She took my Leo on a walk & sent me the best check-in pictures! She did an 11/10 job & i truly suggest you book with her in the future! Thank you so much Alexis for being super kind, and helpful🫶”
“Sitara was very consistent and provided detailed and consistent updates on our cat. She was on time and we loved getting frequent photo updates. She went the extra mile and we would definitely hire her again.”
“Fatima went above and beyond while caring for our cat. Her visit cards were always very thorough, she included great photos, and it was clear our cat loved having her around. Would rebook with Fatima in a heartbeat!”
“Alise is AMAZING!! She took great care of our kitties and went above and beyond! Our cats also trusted her pretty instantly which really meant a lot to us. 10/10 would recommend :)”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my deep understanding of animals’ individual needs and my commitment to providing care that’s both compassionate and reliable. I have hands-on experience with pets of all ages, from energetic puppies who need structure and training, to senior pets who require patience, medication management, and a gentle touch. I also currently work at an animal boarding facility that would take all species of animals so I have current and up to date experience with all types of animals including reptiles, small mammals/rodents, large mammals, and birds as well as administering medications. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I structure my day around feeding, walking, playtime, and any special needs each pet requires. Whether in my home or a client’s, I prioritize a calm, safe, and clean environment where pets feel secure and loved. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including medication, exercise, and cuddle time, while keeping pet parents updated with regular check-ins. Safety and trust are always my top priorities—I treat every pet like family and every home with respect. Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are at the heart of how I care for pets—whether in my home or my client’s. I follow each pet’s routine closely to maintain consistency and reduce stress, including feeding schedules, walks, medication, and playtime. In a client’s home, I respect their space and ensure it stays clean and secure. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, pet-proofed space with plenty of comfort and supervision. I build trust by offering calm, attentive care and sending regular updates, so pet parents feel confident and connected while they’re away.
“Harleigh did an amazing job with my kitty. This was my first time leaving my pet so I was pretty nervous to go. Harleigh gave me updates on each visit. And I came home to a very happy cat.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,216 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Oakville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
