I provide patient, loving care and treat my clients as if they were my own. I work remotely from my computer and can sit with your pets all day or before and after my day shift. I have experience administering medications for pets with diabetes and other illnesses. I work from home and my hours are flexible, am able to provide pet care that is round the clock, Monday through Friday and on weekends. For drop ins on weekdays, I can come in the morning or later evening. Large yard, locks on all doors and windows. Would keep animals separate from my own animals if at my house. Never leave animals unsupervised in the home
“Tiffany was fantastic! From our initial meet-and-greet, to ongoing communications, to sending photos, and most importantly, to taking great care of my boys, Arlo and Otis. I highly recommend Tiffany and will request her care again. Thank you, Tiffany!”

“Tori was perfect! I felt extremely comfortable leaving my girl (dog some call her) with Tori, especially knowing she works with animals for a living. She was communicative, thoughtful, and clearly cared about making sure everything went smoothly while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our girl was in such good hands. We’re so grateful for the time she spent with her and would absolutely book with Tori again!”

My keen attention to detail and understanding of animal guidelines guarantee good care. Having assisted in caring for numerous dogs and cats, I bring valuable professional experience to the table. What sets me apart is my online college schedule, enabling me to dedicate more time and attention to your beloved pets compared to other sitters. Trust me to provide top-notch care for your animals while you're away. With online school schedule and a part time job, my schedule is not very busy.

With a fenced yard and other dogs, I ensure a safe environment. I wake up early to provide attentive care for dogs and cats without the day.
“Corinne is truely an exceptional Pet Sitter. She was our best Christmas present, as we booked her last minute (after a scheduled visit was cancelled). Our 20 yr. old kitty, normally pretty shy with strangers, fell in love with her on 1st meeting and let Corinne hold & pet her on every visit. She was the best communicator, sending lots of pictures and short messages. We are so happy and thankful to have found Corinne and will definitely book her again!”
“Kristen came in clutch! We made a last-minute decision to extend our vacation and booked an Airbnb in the small town of Cadiz where sitter selection was sparse. Kristen responded to my request immediately and was willing to drive 30 minutes after work to take care of Bogey. The visit was flawless, she followed directions perfectly, and we returned to a happy dog. His bully looks were no issue for her either. I also appreciated the pics she sent. We felt comfortable leaving his care in her hands and would do so again. Maybe with more than 7 hours notice next time ?”
About: I became a dog sitter when my Husband was working in the Military. His friends and workers would all need to go see family and could not always take their animals. So I became known as their extra Pet mommy. Even after my Husband got out of the ARMY, We saw a old comrade I sat for, and they said their dog doesn't like their new sitter. She was sad I left. We saw them in EPCOT of all places. It was nice to know they liked me. I am available all day to come and walk or play, or even just sit with your puppies or kitties. I have my own transportation and am reliable. I never leave the pet alone. we play and cuddle a lot. I take care of their area and their meds if needed as well. I am currently working part time so I will have time to play and cuddle with your pets all the time. It will be my pleasure. I am always watching to make sure they don't get into something they shouldn't be eating or playing with. I love to take walks and play.
“Kristie B. is the best dog sitter! Sami had the best time with her! Kristie sent me pictures every day so I could see how they were doing - and so I didn’t miss her too much! Thank you, Kristie!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Attention to detail and timeliness and super important to me. Trust me and I’ll watch your loved one like a member of my family. I work a simple 8-5 Monday-Friday. Looking to add a second income during these trying times. I do not do anything halfway. You’ll get the best service and communication you’ve received, which will make it hard to use anyone else after. 3-4 walks per day as well as at least 30 minutes of play time fully dedicated to my pup where he can let out all of his energy. I can tailor my routine to whatever your animals need.
“I absolutely loved Courtney! She was perfect and Stella loved having some company. It was nice to have someone that I could trust to take care of my little fur ball. She sent videos and pictures and Stella looked so happy.”
“Tabatha was a blessing! I felt at ease while on vacation with Tabatha caring for our pets. From what I can tell she kept them on their toes and probably did a better job then I would do! I never expected so many pictures of them either playing, eating, or just being goofy. Would definitely recommend and hope she's available next time!”
“Moon did a great job with my girls. She is prompt and keeps in communication well. I love the pictures she provided so I can see my girls while I’m away. I would definitely recommend Moon. Thank you Moon🐾♥️🐾”
“Jenna really spent quality time with the boys…great pics she took!! She is a sweetheart and truly cares about her clients. Please book her if you need a great and caring provider for your fur babies!”
About: Although I do not currently have pets of my own, I have always loved animals and have been the go-to pet sitter for friends and colleagues since moving back to Pittsburgh in 2019. I have cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from quick check-ins to longer stays. Because I work remotely, my schedule is flexible and I can provide consistent care, attention, and updates while you are away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and your home, so I try to be dependable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s routine. Since I do not have pets of my own, I genuinely enjoy getting to care for other people’s pets like they are part of my extended family. I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible and I can provide pet care during the day, in the evenings, and on weekends depending on the booking. Because I can work from different locations, I’m able to spend quality time with pets during house sitting stays and provide consistent check-ins, feeding, walks, playtime, and updates. I’m happy to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I care for pets in their own home, where they can stay comfortable with their usual routine, space, food, toys, and schedule. I always follow owner instructions closely, including feeding, medication, walks, litter care, crate routines, and any house rules. I’m respectful of both your pet and your home, and I prioritize communication, safety, and calm, attentive care. I’ll also send updates so you know your pet is doing well while you’re away.

Chelsea was amazing!! Our furkids loved spending time with her during our time away. She was very attentive and went above and beyond to take care of them and our needs while we were traveling. She shared many pictures with us and made sure we stayed connected to them. We would HIGHLY recommend her services to anyone who needs a pet sitter. We will definitely hire her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Toronto on Rover is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $29 per visit. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 2,165 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Toronto. 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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% 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.
