“People say they love animals, but not everyone truly does! I believe Kimberly truly loves animals. I feel she treated my puppies like they were hers. I am fairly new to leaving my girls with a sitter, Kimberly put my mind at ease. She sent a lot of updates and pictures, which I really appreciated. I will have Kimberly watch Thelma and Louise anytime I need a sitter again.”
“Kaela treated Theodore like her own! He had so much fun there and came home completely pooped. She sent me pics and updates throughout his stay and it helped put me at ease. She is great!”
“David’s place was like a home away from home for our two dogs. They have different needs and personalities and David was an excellent caretaker for both of them. I hope to be able to have them visit again!”
“Kevin was great in keeping me updated on my Harley dog. In the videos & pictures he would send I could tell she was having a great visit. She bonded with Kevin's dog and they ran & ran playing well together! No problem in thinking about using Kevin again.”
“Desiree is the one person I trust my fur baby pup with!! Communication on updates is always very timely and I know my dog is in good hands in a safe clean home.”
“Jennifer is always great and willing to work with you and love how she is with Bella. From getting updated pictures I can see how happy my dog is with Jennifer and her family.”
“Leanne’s level of care is exquisite. Her skills with a dog with leash aggression, and love of food was navigated beautifully. Her heart was immediately recognized by both me and my sweet dog. ARWEN felt immediately at home and got toys out of the toy box, drank water and jumped on the couch to be near Leanne. Erin is quite the couch potato, but Leanne got her out on walks every day, introduced her to the neighborhood, horses, and cats( (at a safe distance.) she sent wonderful photos and updates and I felt completely at ease to enjoy my international travel without concern for my dogs’s well-being. It was actually very hard for them to part ways. Very sweet connection. I would recommend Leanne for any of your precious dog’s needs.”
“Rhonda is amazing with my timid girl! This is our second stay and our pup was so happy with Rhonda and her sweet dog Brodie. Communication was great with updates and pictures. I couldn’t be more pleased with the care our girl received.”
“Wonderful loving family cared for Mossy by taking her to the park, playing with their fun dog, gave her lots of pets and cuddles and even a soft bed sleeping with a family member. Can’t get any better! She’ll be back for more visits!”
“Kristin is amazing! Left our 2 Frenchies with her for 5 days and they had a great time. Kristin was very flexible with our drop off and pick up times, great communicator, and sent us daily photos and updates. I’m so happy we found someone in completely comfortable to leave our babies with. 🥰”
“Sheena is the best! We always trust her with our dog, Jasmine- in fact I think Jasmine looks forward to us traveling so she can visit Sheena and her son Carter and get all the snuggles!”
“This was our first time using this service and our first time leaving our pet with someone other than friends or family. Jesse made us feel comfortable and took such great care of our Moogie! Will definitely be using his services again in the future!”
“We wish we had found John and his family sooner! Nicki had a great time staying with them. We received daily updates and photos, and she even got to enjoy walks. For longer stays, we prefer that Nicki is the only dog or that the sitter only has one of their own, since she values her space. That said, for shorter stays, being around multiple dogs is totally fine—she gets to rest and recharge when she returns home. During her stay, she saw one other dog briefly, which was no issue. We would absolutely recommend John and plan to use his services again!”
“Katey is a wonderful sitter! She is warm & welcoming and her house & yard are lovely. Our dogs felt instantly at home and when we returned it was clear they had been 100% comfortable with Katey. We cannot recommend her enough and hope to book with her again. Thanks, Katey!”
“Jennifer was great with Hazel. It was hazels first time and I was a bit nervous having never left Hazel before. Jennifer sent me regular updates and pics. Hazel was happy, got plenty of exercise, ate her dinner and her breakfast and slept soundly at night. I feel better knowing I have Jennifer to provide excellent care if I need to go out of town again.”
“I was going out of town and needed an affordable and trustworthy pet sitter. Lisa was the perfect fit! She addressed all my concerns and put my mind at ease. Every picture I got of my pup she was happy and in her element as if she was in her own home. I highly recommend Lisa and I will be definitely be a repeat client should I need another pet sitter.”
“Margaret recently watched our pup Reece and was fantastic!! Reece is a special pup and needs extra care due to his diabetes. He takes insulin 2x daily and although Margaret hadn't done so before, she was open to learning the process and took great care of Reece. He was happy & healthy the duration of his visit (6 days) and we received many updates. We found a great dogsitter in Margaret!!”
“Yang and her family were wonderful to our dog, Xiaolong, while we were away for a few days. We know Yang will be the first Rover we contact the next time we are away and need a loving home away from home for our dog.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Oakville home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Oakville.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Oakville sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in WA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
