“Michelle is amazing! It was Luna’s first time being away for so long and she made her feel at home. Took such good care of her and kept me updated during her stay. The whole experience was great!”
“Winnie took care of my 3 fur babies ( Miso, Lily and Bailee) very well. She was so attuned to their needs. She showered them with love and affection and kept them exercised daily. I will not hesitate to leave them with her again should the need arise.”
“I was gone for a week with my family to Hawaii and Caihua was a great sitter as always! She sends constant videos so it feels like I never left Milo’s side 🥹 she sends videos of her also following his care instructions, and I couldn’t ask for a better sitter :) I will definitely be bringing my puppy back here!”
“Bonnie had four other dogs to play with during this stay that kept her busy and tired! Amanda even had to deal with some stomach issues Bonnie had (sorry!). I always feel good knowing she is under Amanda’s care. Thank you :-)”
“We love Ava! She is a kind and caring pup sitter. This was the second time we left our pup in her care. She took great care of our Mindy. She made our dog feel comfortable and welcomed in her home. She communicated very well with us, and sent pictures and videos of our dog daily. Thank you, Ava, for all you've done for us and our dog. We are lucky to have found a wonderful person to care for our dog while we're away. We truly appreciate you.”
“First time leaving my baby, and she did amazing! My Max is super anxious and shy, but she was so patient with him and really helped him feel comfortable. When we got home, he was still his happy self, which made me feel so reassured. ❤️ She even gave Max a toy and a dog bowl mat, which was so thoughtful! Definitely using her services again. Highly recommend! 🐾”

He is very friendly, kept me update with what is going on and sent pictures every now and then. I would like to recommend him and I will be going back to him for my next trip. Thank you Adam.”
“First time leaving Zoey overnight for 3 nights and I was so worried. Janet took great care of Zoey and sent me pics to show me how well she fit in with the other pups. I dropped Zoey off with her food, treats, blanket, dog bowls, and bed. Janet returned them clean. Zoey was happy when I picked her up and was taken care of very well. I appreciated that Janet accomdated my work schedule. I recommend Janet's pet sitting services.”
“Rebecca doggy sat for me this past weekend and I am SO happy with her services. My dog came back sooo full of life like he was just at the spa, after playing with other dogs and having great care. Rebecca would send me updated every day and is very fast at responding. My trip was delayed and she was happy to keep my dog for 4 hours longer than expected without any hesitation. I will absolutely be using rebecca as my primary doggy sitter from now on.”

Jessica and her family were very hospitable and amazing with our dog, Zen. She sent us all pictures and videos throughout the day because we were missing him on our trip. She followed all our instructions for feedings and bathroom breaks, etc and her kids played with him a lot, which is great for his stimulation and being occupied. We’ll definitely be using Jessica again!!
Amanda is a wonderful host! We were looking for last minute care since our sitter plans fell through and she gladly accommodated us. Amanda is super sweet, responsive and took great care of our dog. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again in the future!
Josephine was fantastic 🙌…attentive, kind, and caring with Panda, who is diabetic. She sent regular updates with pictures and was very communicative throughout the stay. This was a last-minute booking on a hot workday (July 19) after my truck’s AC went out, so it felt like a bit of an emergency. I’m truly grateful, thank you so much!
Aharon boarded my dog, Matisse, for 9 days, and I had a great experience. He was very responsive and easy to communicate with throughout the stay. He regularly sent photos and videos, which gave me peace of mind and showed that Matisse was having a great time. When I picked Matisse up, he was happy, relaxed, and showed no signs of stress. He settled back in at home immediately and didn’t seem to have any complaints about his stay. I would definitely trust Aharon to watch Matisse again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.
Shirley made sure both of my dogs had a great time while in her care. She also is very knowledgeable about dogs and behavior. I received frequent updates and pictures/videos which ensured me that they were doing well. We appreciate all that she has done for us and the pups!
Mayra was awesome! She took excellent care of Draco while we were away. She was communicative and kept us up to date as she sent me videos and photos of Draco, which put our minds at ease considering this was our first time hiring a dog sitter. We highly recommend Mayra to anyone looking for a caring and attentive dog sitter.
Gabriela was wonderful with our girl Rosie during a 3 night stay. Rosie is a high energy bird dog and was going through her first heat, but Gabriela followed her routine perfectly, changed her diapers, and sent lots of photos and videos. Her dog Kobe is a friendly sweetheart and got along great with Rosie. Highly recommend!
Great experience overall. Daisy came home calm, relaxed, and very well taken care of, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was out of town. Communication was smooth, and I could tell she got plenty of attention and care during the stay. Definitely appreciate the help and would book again. Highly recommend.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Ontario on Rover is $50 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 6,404 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ontario. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
94% of Ontario sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Ontario landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Ontario home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Ontario.
Tip: 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 Ontario 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 CA 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.
