“Absolutely the best!! She is a true dog lover anf treated our dogs like they were her own. My dogs took to her immediately trying to play with her during the meet and greet. Very detailed about each visit with pictures. Even rubbed oil on my dog who has back issues! I could go on and on about how pleased we all were with her care of our dogs and her communication with us. In every aspect she went above and beyond and stayed longer to care for them and walk them then expected. We shared her notes and photos each visit with other family members and enjoyed her commentary . Highly Recommend Courtney! Your pets will be in e collet hands”

“Nicole was absolutely outstanding. She checked on, fed, and loved on our two kitties while we were gone for 2 weeks. She took such good care of them! She went above and beyond - took in our packages, took up our trash, and even cleaned up kitty litter that the cats tracked through the house. Her communication was amazing and she sent regular updates and pictures. We felt so comfortable having Nicole at our home while we were gone. We will 1000% have Nicole take care of our animals again!”

“Grave was fantastic! She walked my Bugsy while I was recovering from a medical condition, and she did great! She always let me know when she was on her way, and helped me with him when he split a toenail on a walk! Bugsy loved seeing her every day and went with her every time, with no issues! She even carried him a few times when he needed it!!”

About: Having grown up and worked on a farm until moving to Louisville four years ago, I have extensive experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and other fowl. Along with providing routine daily care, I am experienced in handling basic needs across various levels of veterinary emergencies. While I am currently enjoying my time in grad school, I truly miss being around animals every day and would love the opportunity to care for yours! I'm a full-time grad student, my schedule allows me time in the morning, in the evenings and throughout the weekend to look after your pet. I can be flexible and am open to talking and finding a time that can work for both of us! While I have much experience with animals, I do recognize that everyone has different needs. I'm looking forward to meeting each animal and learning about their individual personalities as well as their needs. I promise to communicate as openly as possible to bring as much peace of mind as I can while you are away from your pet and your home. I understand that there is a level of trust that comes with having someone new in your home, so I am open to answering any questions you may have so that this can be a smooth and comfortable process for both of us.

About: I own my own dog, who is well trained, along with caring for neighbors dogs, and training. I have puppy sat at my own home for multiple nights. In my free time I watch a lot of dog training videos and love to do animal research. I enjoy cats while I do have limited experience. I am a full time college student however, I have my evenings free on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and weekends work great for me as well. I love dog training and I am extremely passionate about animal research, so I love to learn more. I am detail oriented, I have a dog of my own, and I actively pet sit. I am really good with communication, and respond frequently and in a timely manner, and I am relatively flexible with timing if need be.

About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart and have been a huge passion of mine growing up. I am caring, trusting, and dependable and will provide the best personal care to fit your dog, cats, or exotics needs. My experience with both dogs and cats has stemmed as a far back to pet sitting and dog walking in my neighborhood, to volunteering at the humane society through my teens. My work experience includes working at a humane society and county shelter. I also have years of experience working at dog boarding and daycare facilities. Along with some background working at an animal hospital. These all allowed me to get familiar with all sizes, personalities, and needs. I am comfortable and have been around puppies of all ages! I also am familiar with dogs with special needs and am able to administer medication. I also recently just became Pet CPR and first aid certified. Besides my experience in care for cats and dogs, I have some prior knowledge for caring with reptiles and ferrets. It’s always rewarding and important to provide the best care possible and most importantly make sure your pet is happy, healthy, and comfortable. Currently I am a very open and flexible with my schedule to cater to different situations and provide the highest care possible for your individual pets needs. I do my best and strive to stick with your pets schedule and routine. I provide drop in visits that includes multiple times a day or staying in home to ensure the best care for your companion. *Special/specific needs may include an increase fee in service.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life from frenchies to shelties. I’ve worked in a dog store for over a year. Let me give you peace of mind while you’re away. On a weekly basis I have a flexible schedule that will allow for me drop by to check in and love on your babies. I work from home on most Wednesdays which allows me easy access to swing by. I will always make sure to give your pet lots of love and attention just like I would my own. Making sure to go the extra mile to let you know that I’m there to care in the ways you need!

About: I’ve loved animals since I was a kid. My partner Jacob and I have 3 yorkies, a cat, a mini pig, and hedgehogs. We have experience with reptiles and arachnids as well. We love all critters, no matter the species! Our home is quite large, with space to give shy animals some quiet time if need be, but we also have no qualms with sharing our beds or couches if your pets want to snuggle up. Our yard is fully fenced, and our animals are always monitored when outdoors. Rest assured, we will treat your babies like our own! I work from home, and have the luxury of creating my own schedule on a daily basis. As such, I’m able to spend as much time as I need to with your babies. My large backyard is fully fenced. Outdoor time is always monitored personally, even if it’s raining. We have three yorkies in our home, and a mini pig who stays outside (except during the winter). We allow animals on our furniture, if they want to join us, or they can lounge where they’re comfortable. We have enough space to keep animals separated in different rooms if the client requests it.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Thornhill

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 1,145 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Thornhill. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 Thornhill. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
