House Sitting in Toronto
A trusted sitter stays at your home in Toronto while you are away.
House sitting in Toronto lets your pets stay in the home they know best while a vetted sitter moves in, follows their normal routine, and keeps the household running. Pets that do better with their own bed, their own yard, and their own feeding schedule often settle more easily than they would in a new home, which matters for senior pets, shy cats, and multi-pet households in areas like Downtown, The Beaches, and High Park.
Toronto sitters who offer house sitting can feed, walk, and medicate your pets, and they often handle small household tasks such as plant watering, collecting mail, rotating lights, and taking out the bins. Neighborhoods from Leslieville, Riverdale, and Yorkville all the way to the eastern and western ends of the city are covered by sitters on the platform, so you can filter by distance from home and pick someone who can drive in or transit to your address quickly.

Why Toronto pet parents choose Hello Marshy
Toronto spans roughly 630 square kilometres, and traffic patterns differ sharply between neighborhoods. A sitter based in The Beaches can reach most addresses in High Park and Leslieville inside half an hour outside rush hour, while cross-city trips at peak times take considerably longer. When you book, consider travel time, parking realities for weekly visits, and whether the sitter can arrive before your departure for a short walkthrough of feeding areas, medication, and any alarm or building entry details.
House sitting pricing in Toronto
House sitting rates in Toronto usually price per night, with additional fees for multi-pet households, medication routines, or extended daytime stays. Many sitters show a small additional-pet rate for second and third animals, and some adjust weekly pricing for longer trips. The rates shown are set by each sitter, and you see the full breakdown on the checkout screen. Hello Marshy charges pet parents 0% booking and payment-processing fees, so no mandatory platform fee is added at checkout, and Marshy Cares booking protection is available as an optional add-on for extra peace of mind on longer stays.
Frequently asked questions
Are sitters on Hello Marshy verified?
Yes. Every sitter must complete identity verification through a trusted third-party verification provider before their profile can appear in search or accept bookings.
Sitters on a paid Monthly or Yearly plan also complete a Canadian criminal record check through Certn, our background-check partner.
Pet parents can leave a public review only after completing a booking through Hello Marshy, so every review comes from a real booking.
How do I find a sitter?
Enter your city and the type of care you need on the Hello Marshy homepage or search page. You can then browse nearby sitters and view photos, a short bio, the kinds of pets they care for, and starting rates for each service.
You can narrow your search by distance, service, price, pet type, and availability. When a sitter looks like a good fit, open their profile to read reviews, check their cancellation policy, and see what services they offer.
If you want to learn more, you can send a message before booking to ask questions, share your pet’s routine, or see if it feels like the right match. There is no cost or commitment to reach out. You only pay once a booking is confirmed through the platform.
Can I meet the sitter before booking?
Yes. We always recommend a meet and greet when booking with a sitter for the first time. It is a good opportunity to go over your pet’s routine, feeding, medication, behaviour, and any other important care details before the booking begins. Many Hello Marshy sitters offer meet and greets, often at no extra cost, depending on the service.
If it does not feel like the right fit, you can continue your search and message another sitter. You only pay once a booking is confirmed.
