“Kerry was absolutely amazing with my sweet boy, Roadie! 🐾❤️ She took such great care of him and made me feel completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. Roadie was happy, comfortable, and clearly well loved while he was with her. I’m extremely grateful she was willing to take care of him, especially on short notice. I would 100% trust Kerry with Roadie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pup like her own. Thank you so much, Kerry!”
“Michelle and Robert were great! they communicated fast, very reliable, caring and sent us updates/pictures of our furbaby. Our poodle seemed super happy to be at their home and to have other friends to play with. We will definitely use them again in the future and recommend them to our friends and family!”
“Kayla took such good care of our dogs when we boarded them at her house! She sent photos every day and I got several updates on how they were doing while I was out of town. It made me feel much more comfortable leaving them with her family knowing they were taken care of and loved. We left them with Kayla and it happened to be over Halloween and she even got our little dog a costume and sent pictures (I'm one of those people so I loved it). I would HIGHLY recommend trusting Kayla with your dogs and we will definitely be using her services again!”
“Our dog Ruby had a great time staying with Paula for several days while we went to the coast. Ruby got lots of loves and attention just like she was their own. She was excellent with communication and we got lots of pictures which were wonderful to see while we were gone. Paula took excellent care of our spoiled Ruby girl!”
“Couldn't have found a better person to watch my boy Cas. Susan took great care of him and gave him lots of attention. Her husband even played ball with him. Will definitely book again!!!!”
“Denise was super nice to our dogs and treated them very well! She did everything we asked her to do. Her house was really nice and she had a big yard. We had a delay on our flight wich of set everything for picking them up, and Denise was really kind about that and ended up watching them for an extra hour Wich was really really nice of her! The only thing that wasn’t 10/10 was that I had to ask for updates rather than her just sending them. The updates were very short. And the pictures were few. I’m not complaining.. I’m just saying that’s something that could be better! But I would use her again for sure! Her and her kids were all very sweet!”
“Nicole was thoughtful and considerate, understanding the needs and requirements of our senior dog. She sent useful updates to help us know how our family member was adapting to new and unfamiliar surroundings. Would be confident in booking her services again should needs arise.”
“Jan was wonderful! She loved and cared for our dog like he was her own. Our dog unexpectedly became ill while we were out of town, and Jan was so good about communication and keeping us updated on his condition. We even FaceTime'd one evening so our dog could see and hear us! She sent daily photos and videos so we could see what he was up to, and even let him sleep on the bed like he does at home. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“DiDi had a wonderful stay! She kept me updated with lots of photos and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. It was clear that DiDi was happy and well cared for, and he had so much fun playing with Ryder. I would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Marissa did a great job caring for my kitty! I appreciated that she made sure Little Baby felt safe and was entertained. Marissa was communicative and sent lots of pics. Id definitely book with her again. Thanks!”
About: have experience with pet sitting so would love to help you out, im mostly available some weekends im not, have 3 dogs already who are mostly friendly just bark :) i work at my grandmas daycare which is at our house, 6am to 6pm but i have a break between 12:30pm-3:15pm so would play with the pet. my room is not attached to the actual house so its my own area. the pet would be in my room the times i am busy with the daycare but during break i would play with them. i have a 360 camera in my room so i am constantly watching. i would take your pet on a walk during my break or after work. i have a pet stroller for older dogs or cats so they can get fresh air. will take pet every 30mins-1 hour to go potty. during summer daycare kids play outside so would run around with it but wouldnt let kids be around if not kid friendly. also will take on drives, mostly to dog park! (if pet loves being social!)
“Rose and her family always take grat care of our Sawyer. She sends daily updates with photos. He always has so much fun and is pooped when he comes home. We are repeat customers and will continue to be.”
About: I have about ten years plus dog experience I train dogs and am learning how to groom dogs too! I love every furry friend I meet I’m currently doing online school and working from 6:30PM to 5AM but don’t worry when pets are staying there will always be someone home weather it is me or my boyfriend my work schedule is also really flexible so if needed i can stay home I have a decent size yard that is fenced in if any pets that are staying with me there is a separate run for either my dogs or yours to go in to stay separate during potty time

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ontario
Paula has watched my dog, Maia, for me a few times. She is incredibly reliable, flexible, responsible, and helpful. I never have to worry about Maia when I’m gone because I know Paula is taking great care of her. Paula very clearly loves animals and knows what she’s doing. She is also great with communicating, easy to reach at all times and very responsive. If I could give Paula a six star review I would do it!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Ontario on Rover is $37.74 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 43 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ontario. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 OR 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.
