“our first time booking with huina and her family. leaving your fur babies with strangers for the first time is always nerve racking but huina made us feel extremely comfortable. she sent us constant updates through out the day, photos, videos, updating us on what our boy was doing. she followed every instruction we gave her and anytning she wasnt sure about she asked us rather than do something out of the norm. we will 100% be booking with her again & we highly recommend her.”

“Marisol and her daughter cared for my baby with all their heart, as if she were their own. Thanks to them, my family and I were able to enjoy our vacation with peace of mind.

Thank you so much for your sweet care! :)”
“Xu Tao took wonderful care of our babies while we were out of town. He was responsive, sent us photos daily of them having fun, and it is clear that he is very experienced.

Thank you so much, we will be reaching out to you next time we need a sitter.”

About: I’ve always loved animals and had many family pets growing up. I have had experience caring for and walking dogs of various ages and temperaments. I can stay kind, patient, and conscientious every step of the way! I have a very flexible schedule and can adapt on the fly! Let me clear my mind and a bit of your to do list with a brisk or slow stroll with your four legged friend. I show respect to all species and will vow to take the safest and healthiest path each step of the way with your four legged family member. Open to suggestions and areas your pet may need extra attention or time on.
“We had an amazing experience with Ariana! She took such great care of our dog for two nights and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent. She always responds my messages right away and keeps us posted on how our dog is doing. We feel our pup was happy and well loved during his stay at Ariana's place. We came home to a relaxed, well-cared-for pup—couldn’t ask for more! Highly recommend and would definitely book again!”
“We had an organized and overall awesome experience with Emily! She kept us updated throughout the day, which gave us so much peace of mind. Emily went above and beyond to ensure our dog was well exercised and mentally stimulated. Her backyard is spacious and perfect for playtime, it’s clear she’s created an environment where dogs can thrive. Our pup tends to be a bit skittish and anxious in new settings, but Emily handled him with such calm and care. We’re so grateful to have found her and have already booked his next boarding stay!”
“Great experience . She’s very welcoming and my dog immediately felt comfortable around her and her son. My dog is older so she was very patient with him and monitored his medication. She always kept me up to date on how he was doing and sent pictures of my dog to see how well he was doing. I will definetly have her dog sit again whenever I’m out of town.”

Isabella was amazing with out puppy. She would send us daily updates , pictures and videos . Our puppy was spoiled . ISabella is also flexible , we did a meet and greet first and our pup had an instant connection. We will definitely book her again. Highly recommend her.
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!
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.
