About: I grew up with a dog, and currently live with a cat. I’ve spent recent years petsitting or walking the dogs of family friends and neighbors, but hope to offer the same attention to your pets now. I take excellent care in guiding your pets on walks, or in making sure they are fed and enriched in playtime at home. I am off of work for the summers, so I have plenty of time to share with your pets! My schedule is incredibly flexible so feel free to reach out with whenever you need pet care.

“Makayla did an outstanding job, We were away on vacation for a whole week and had her look in on the animals/house twice a day. She proved herself to be very loving and responsible! She was able to follow a detailed list of rules and responsibilities & my animals took to her very quickly which is especially unusual for my cat! Highly recommend 10/10!”

“Chelsea was great with our dogs and I felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. She was very prompt everytime she came, followed the instructions I had left for her and gave my oldest dog his medication twice a day as needed. You could tell the boys were happy in the pictures that were sent to us after each visit. Chelsea responded quickly when I texted too. I will be requesting Chelsea again when we need pet visits and I would recommend her to others. Thanks Chelsea!”

About: My husband and I have been caring for all types of animals since we can remember! I've had dogs since I was 8. Our two puppies are very high energy hunting dogs, so we are used to providing LOTS or excersice! We are familiar with all sorts of animals and I have worked in the wildlife rehabilitation field for 3 years. We can deal with picky eaters, whiners, and anything in bewtween. We live on 40 acres so your pup will have lots of room to run! We are all excited to meet your puppies! We work full time so are only available to give your dog undivided attention during evenings and weekends right now! We may also be able to flex weekday care! Both our dogs are crate trained. They are very high energy hunting dogs, so we are used to providing LOTS of excersice! We use GPS tracking collars on them so they are rarely leashed, but are leash trained. Both eat twice a day. We also have 3 cats. I work full time with a varying schedule, and my husband works a full time regular schedule. We make time for our pets every day to run and have fun, and will make sure to do the same for yours! We have a fenced in yard to keep every body safe, but we also go on lots of adventures! I feed all dogs separately. We make sure every pet in our home is treated with love and respect to them and their owners!
About: I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets—dogs, cats, and small animals. From daily walks and feedings to administering medications and providing comfort, I’ve built trust with pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I take the time to learn their routine, understand their behavior, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages, so you always feel connected. With school starting in August I will be available Thursday and any weekend. I will also be able to work with you during the weekday! When caring for pets in my client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible—feeding them on schedule, giving plenty of love and attention, keeping their space clean, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I respect their environment and follow any specific instructions closely. While I don’t currently have a dog in my own home, that allows me to give your pet my full attention without distractions. My dog currently passed so we have an electric fence but that’s it! If your pet stays with me, they’ll have a clean, calm, pet-friendly space with lots of one-on-one care, playtime, and love. I’m all about making them feel at home—whether it’s their place or mine.
About: I've been an animal lover since I could walk, getting my first pet as a young child. Since then, my world has revolved around animals. As a self proclaimed "crazy cat lady" and "dog mom," I know the importance these bundles of fur bring to our lives. Most of my days revolve around the care of my own pets, including my indoor cats and dogs as well as the ferals/strays I care for in my neighborhood. I've cared for cats with diabetes, hyperthyroidism, aging pets, post-op animals, neonatal kittens and everything in between. I currently work full-time as a nurse but luckily, I have a remote job and get to work from home everyday! This means I spend all of my days surrounded by the comfort of my home AND my pets which makes me a great option in caring for their needs whenever they need me! Safety is my biggest priority as I know the dangers the outside world can pose on our special ones. At my home, all of my cats remain indoors and our backyard is fenced in for our dogs. I will honor any wishes my clients have within their home for the care of their pets and ensure safety and love are the top priorities your babies will receive under my care.
“Bridget did multiple drop in visits a day for 5 days. She was punctual and she had early morning visits and late night visits. I felt very comfortable that she wouldn’t let us down. Bridget took time to play with our puppies and love on our kitty. When the opportunity arises I will definitely use her again!”

About: I've had my own dogs for my whole entire life. I know that dogs need their daily exercise, and attention to make sure they are satisfied. I have watched my families dogs for many years whenever they go on trips. I understand dogs needs and how much attention a dog may take. I currently have a free schedule. I am working on getting a part time summer job while I am home from college. As of right now I do not have one and I am availaible anytime. I can easily travel to homes to help take care of dogs or walk them. I understand how important it is for dogs to be let out fed and exercised. I will ensure dogs are safely let out to use the restroom and they are on a leash if they need to be walked to ensure the safety of the dog and others.
“We've used Hannah several times and she always does a great job with my furry, feathered, and finned creatures. She communicates well. She takes wonderful care of my poultry and their various demands (especially for treats).”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Ontario on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 185 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Ontario. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Ontario stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ontario. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
