“Margaret and her children took such loving care of Windy, I can’t thank them enough! Margaret kept me updated on how Windy was doing which I very much appreciated especially since I had never her left her like this before. I would highly recommend Margaret as a very experienced and loving dog caregiver.”
“Kevin was an exceptional host,, this was our first time using a home doggy daycare and Kevin put our mind at ease. His home is perfectly set up and Wiskey had a great time. We have no qualms recommending Kevin.”
“Connie was amazing! First time using Rover and Connie was consistently updating us and ensured our baby was well taken care of! Daisy came back to us happy and just like herself which says a lot about the way she was cared for! Highly recommend Connie!”
“Destiny took care of our puppy for us the first time we ever had to leave him. She provided a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of exercise and play time. She was super communicative and sent us daily messages and photos while were away! Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats so caring for pets comes naturally to me. I will provide a comfortable home suitable for your pets. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine! I work part-time doing deliveries, which gives me the flexibility to create my own schedule — meaning I can easily adapt around your pet’s needs rather than the other way around. 🐾 Whether you need early morning visits, midday check-ins, or evening walks, my availability is largely open and I’m happy to work around what works best for you and your furry family member. Consistency and reliability are really important to me, so once we establish a routine that works, I stick to it! My home is a safe and comfortable place for your pet without any children or other animals. My time is solely dedicated for your loved ones.
About: I’ve been petsitting for family and friends for two decades now, and would love the opportunity to help you out as well! I love all pets big and small, with familiarity with dogs, cats, lizards, rodents, and birds! Bonus! I’m a teacher as my day job, so you can trust that I’ve been solidly background checked, fingerprinted, etc, ensuring a safe, trustworthy person around your pets on a predictable schedule. I am a full-time teacher from September to June. This means that my summers are wide open, and you can count on a reliable consistent schedule for your pets during the school year. Since I have my own cats at home, I offer pet-sitting at your home on your schedule. This can range from stop ins for potty breaks to walks every few hours to overnight stays - you tell me and I’m there! We’ll discuss your expectations to make sure that your pets get exactly the care you expect during your time away, and I promise clear and open communication while you trust me to watch over your babies! (If you are looking for boarding, please be aware that I have cats at my home. Any pup coming in MUST be good around cats, for everyone's comfort!)
“Dawson was great with Oreo, allowing him lots of cuddles and lap hugs. Most importantly, Dawson was very accomodatinv with drop off and pickup times; which,as we know when we travel, that schedules can change. I appreciated his kindness.”
About: I had the absolute honour to be a dog Mom for 15 years. My beautiful Benjamin earned his angel wings in September 2023 but I still remember how hard it was to find a loving & attentive dog sitter who had senior dog experience, and it was through Rover that I met some really amazing dog-sitters and I'm forever grateful they were part of Benji's journey. Benji had diabetes for years so I have extensive experience administering needles and oral medication. Benji was also a fussy eater so I’m also used to making meals tasty and the environment super relaxing to ensure your baby is as happy as they can be while you’re away. The primary reason for having a higher-than-average rate is because I promise to provide exceptional, safe, and attentive care to your precious baby. I’m also open to giving very frequent updates and photos to make your experience away from your baby as enjoyable as possible. I’m very mindful of safety rules and making sure you’re little (or big!) one is safe and cared for 24/7. I love dogs so much and I miss their beautiful love and light, and while I’m not ready to have another one of my own yet, I look forward to caring for your dog as I would my own. I love giving lots of cuddles, belly rubs and walks and I aim to make every dog feel super loved and adored. Right now I’m currently working in Ottawa for the federal government from Monday to Thursday. I work from home on Fridays, and I am available all weekend and would dedicate every hour to looking after your fur baby. I’m currently in transition to retirement, so I will be available for full-time sitting most likely in the fall of 2026. For boarding, I am comfortable spending all of my free time outside of work with your baby. I live alone, and do not have obligations that would take me away from focusing on your baby’s care. I also live in a very quiet neighborhood, so it would be a peaceful and enjoyable experience for your little one. I look forward to meeting you and your precious baby! 🐶 I work from home 1 day a week (Fri) and have to be in the office in Ottawa 4 days a week (MonThurs). I would be able to be home with your baby (Fri, Sat, Sun) but if you’re going on vacation and request more than those 3 days I’m more than happy to do 7 days a week, as long as you’re ok with them being alone on the 4 days I’m in the office (from 7am to 3pm). I have a fully fenced yard and live on a corner lot so there is lots to see and sniff even if just running around my yard, but I am happy to go on lots of leashed walks as well. Being a devoted dog Mom for 15 years, I was always extremely careful about making sure my Benji was safe and I did many things to avoid potential situations, such as crossing the street on walks if another dog looked aggressive, making sure I had eyes on him at all times and knowing what he was doing (even when sniffing the ground), making sure nothing was on the ground that could be hazardous. Nothing was more important to me than protecting my Benji and also making him feel super loved and relaxed. Trust is so important when choosing a dog-sitter. I’ve had a few negative experiences when I needed one in the past, so I know how awful it can be to search and have to settle for mediocre care when in a pinch, so it’s important to me to offer the utmost in care for your baby and for you to be assured that they are in good hands. I’ve had very positive experiences using Rover in the past as a dog owner & I’m excited to now be able to give positive experiences to other pet parents as a dog-sitter. I’m more than happy to abide by any and all requests or preferences that you have when it comes to your baby and I’d love to know their likes and dislikes and whatever else will make their stay with me the best time ever!
“We're so happy we found Ashley! Georgie had the time of his life hiking with her (we can tell because he is completely passed out at home now - which is incredibly hard to do with a husky). The picture updates are such a nice bonus as we get to see how happy he is throughout the day. G can't wait to spend some time with Ashley in the near future again! =)”
“Renee was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Indy! This was a last-minute booking, and she was incredibly accommodating and easy to coordinate with, which we really appreciated. Throughout the week, she kept us updated with daily messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from the updates that Indy was not just being cared for, but truly spoiled and loved. Renee is a warm, friendly, and genuinely caring person, and it shows in the way she looks after animals. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind to care for their pet.”
About: I’ve had dogs growing up, one at my moms and one at my dads, I now live alone and would love to help with your little fur babies! I have 4 pets right now two bunnies and two cats. The bunnies get kibble and veggies in the morning. The cats get wet food in the morning and at night. Dry kibble out all day and hay out all day for the bunnies. We clean their cage 1/ week, and the cats litter gets changed every 3 days. I’ve dog sat a few times for the same family and if you have a routine for your pets I’ll gladly follow what your looking for, I also have a routine for mine as well, so whatever works best for you!

“Christie was amazing to work with. She was attentive to detail and patient with all of my many requirements for my crazy cats. I will definitely be booking with Christie again!”
“Kayla was fantastic with our fur baby! We were anxious leaving him, but she went above and beyond to ensure he was happy and felt loved! She communicated often to reassure us and sent pics of his smiling face. She spoiled him like one of her own and we’re grateful for her love and care! I truly think he misses her since our return!”
About: My family has always had two or more dogs. Usually, the bigger breads (Great Dane, Wolf Hound, St. Bernard), but we have also had small ones (English bulldog, chocolate lab). I am very active myself, so the more walks, the better! If they like to run, I'd love to bring them on my runs! Hikes we love hikes. I give long pets and spoil them with treats (unless they are on a diet). I am excellent about giving medication if they need it as well. One of my family dogs currently has weak joints and needs to take a supplement every day. If required, I can also groom them, brushing, baths, nail clippings. I will take care of your furry friend the best that I can!! I work a full time job and do this on the side! I enjoy taking care of other pets to fix release the urge of finding my own pupper. I have a cat who is very friendly and calm currently. I do live in an apartment that is why I like to stick to walks and home visits if possible, but we can discuss boarding if needed!

About: I have had my own dogs for 9 years, In which I have taken care of their food, walking, medicine, and play time. I also love to hug them. I am a home-school mom of a 14 year old boy. I have a Yorkie Chihuahua who can play with your dog and make some new friends. I do not have a fence but I walk my dog with a chain, and at home they can walk freely. I preferably don't like them on my sofas or bed though.
About: I’ve grown up with all sorts of animals, so caring for them just feels like second nature to me. I’ve spent years fostering dogs with all kinds of personalities, from shy and nervous to wild and goofy, and I love figuring out what makes each one feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I even ran my own dog walking and boarding business back home, so I totally get how hard it is to leave your pet with someone else. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family (yes, that includes talking to them like they understand everything). I’ve cared for all ages; playful puppies who need help learning manners and social skills, and sweet senior pets who need meds, patience, and a little extra TLC. Whether it’s long walks, cuddle time, or just keeping routines consistent, I’m all about making your pet feel loved while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I have a dog of my own and we’re already out for walks and playtime every day. Adding another pup or pet along just feels easy and fun, and I’m happy to keep everyone on a comfortable, familiar schedule. Safety always comes first for me. I live on a quiet roundabout with very little traffic and I’m always supervising outside time. I’m right on the water for pups who love swimming or chasing a ball, and there are lots of nearby trails I love taking dogs on for walks. For any little escape artists, I’m happy to keep things on-leash so everyone stays safe and happy!
“Connie is awesome and laid back. She sent pics of our pups cuddled up on her. That says it all: they were comfy and happy so we could relax on our getaway. Will be using her services again. Thanks Connie!”
About: I’ve got a big yard and an even bigger heart! Whether it’s playtime, walks, or nap time, your pet will feel right at home here. I may be new to Rover, but I will care deeply for your animals and treat every pet like family. My work is very flexible from home, so I am available for both day and overnight bookings! When they are with me they can have my full attention! I live in a quiet area with a spacious yard, perfect for supervised play. My home is calm, clean, and pet-friendly. I only take a few pets at a time to make sure each one gets the attention they deserve. You can trust that your pet will be cared for with patience, kindness, and consistency—just like family
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes. From basic training of puppies to elder care, hospice care and administering medication. I’m patient, kind and enjoy all energy levels. Whether they are movie & couch potato pups, prefer swimming at the river or playing ball in the meadow, I’m always excited to give them the best time they can have. I work a rotational schedule allowing me to have blocks of 3 weeks off at a time. During that time I am fully available for any pet care needs. have over 3 acres of woods & meadows for frolicking that back up to more wooded areas, I’m a short drive from two beautiful river walks or swimming (seasonal). I do have crates available if needed. I have a good selection of pet basic first aid and hygiene supplies.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats most of my life. I’ve had some trying dogs over the years and I can control anything that comes my way. I am the kind of person that will go see the dog and not talk to all the people that are there. I have taken care of a number of dogs in my life of all sizes and all the characters and can say without a doubt that I can definitely handle a lot with training or medication. You would not be disappointed in having me as your pet sitter. The dog will be a part of my family just like it was my very own and will have cuddles and playtime nonstop. I am retired. I spend a lot of time at home in the. In the summer, I am out and about a little more, but when I have a dog, I will make sure that they are well taken care of with walks before I leave and when I return My house is very pet friendly. When I am home, they will have the run of the house. If I have to step out, they will be put in their kennel if they have one or they will be left in the family room with a baby gate at the door. I live on a country road. There is little traffic. I am looking into getting a dog run. I will do a couple walks a day minimum and play time outside weather depending. And lots of cuddles

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and no one should ever have to worry about quality pet care while away. Call on me. I am plenty capable of being where I’m needed, at any time of day.

“We're so happy we found Ashley! Georgie had the time of his life hiking with her (we can tell because he is completely passed out at home now - which is incredibly hard to do with a husky). The picture updates are such a nice bonus as we get to see how happy he is throughout the day. G can't wait to spend some time with Ashley in the near future again! =)”
