“I truly appreciate the attention and caring that Rosie receives during her stay with Candace and Dave. We receive regular updates and photos while we are on vacation! Thank you!!”
“We had a last minute change to our travel plans and were looking for a sitter in the Canmore area. Jackie was available and looked after our two Tibetan Terriers for 3 nights. Jackie wasn't familiar with the breed but by the time we arrived she had researched them. She had also read and was familiar with the dog profiles, including feeding schedule. The dogs had the run of a spacious back yard (and a buddy to play with) as well as of the house. Jackie was very good about providing periodic text and photo updates for all 3 days.”
“Everything went well! It was a kind of last minute request I was so lucky to find Kathleen with Rover App. I was not sure if Fernie is ok with a cat but Kathleen handled very well. Fernie was comfortable there all the time with Kathleen and her roommates. Thank you guys!”
“It was our Ollie’s first time with Bia and it couldn’t have been better. She made him feel at home and comfy the whole time. We were able to get away for the weekend and have peace of mind knowing Ollie was very well taken care of! Highly recommended!”
“There’s no one I’d rather have looking after my dog! Stacey takes the best care of my dog and treats him like he’s family. She is so accommodating, and always keeps me informed. We happily keep coming back!”
“Evelyn is an amazing dog sitter! She was incredibly flexible with a changing schedule and our dog loved her. She took Billie on daily walks by the river for sniff and play. We would highly recommend her.”
“Freddy was so well looked after! Stephanie and Robert took our boy last minute after original plans fell through and couldn’t have been more welcoming to him. Stephanie sent photos to keep us updated, gave him lots of walks and snuggles and I think he had the best two days of his life! Thank you!”
About: I provide care , support, attention all with love. I also have a strong understanding of the needs of others, as well as the importance of safety and their nervous systems. I am flexible with the schedule of your needs, if your schedule changes based on last minute appointments, trips or any other circumstances, I will accommodate as needed . I can accommodate in your home so that your put babies and loved ones are more comfortable in their own space and in their current routines .
“This was Daisy’s first time staying with someone she didn’t know and Alex made sure she had lots of fun and was comfortable. She sent pictures to us throughout the day and even took Daisy on a walk. We highly recommend Alex to watch your pup if you are in or passing through Banff!”
“WOW. Colleen is incredible. It was my partner's first time EVER leaving his dog with a stranger, and it was only my second time leaving my dog with someone I didn't already know, and we both felt SO good about it. She understands dog body language and how dogs communicate with each other, she understands dogs and different dog breeds/traits so well. I would trust her with any pet. Her own dogs and cat are absolutely wonderful. We have a australian shepherd and a huskey/german shepherd. Drop off and pick up was wonderful, she is the kindest most lovely human. I could tell the dogs had an absolute blast with her, and were very tired!! She sent us updates and photos which were amazing. I don't know if there is anything more I could say, 10/10, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ HIGHLY RECOMMEND.”

“Élise took great care of our cat, Nala, while we were on vacation! She was very responsive, sent us pictures during every drop-in, and even watered our plants and took the garbage out! Nala was very spoiled to have Élise look after her while we were away. Thank you so much! Would highly recommend!”
“Nicola is truly wonderful! She’s responsive, friendly, and accommodating. She’s taken care of Bean on several occasions (and sometimes even on short notice). She’s attentive to our pets’ needs and keeps us well informed (with photos, details, and a completed report). Bean seemed very happy to spend time with Nicola! I recommend her without hesitation and will definitely be using her services again very soon.”
“Ofer took great care of our cat while we were away. He had excellent communication before we hired him and during the visits. We always looked forward to the updates and pictures. We’d be happy to recommend Ofer to anyone looking for a great cat sitter!”
“Jess was great checking in on my two cats while I was away. She was very caring with my senior cat, and made sure to send me detailed updates and photos. Would recommend and use her again!”
“Laura did a great job of taking care of our cat during our vacation. She was very punctual and also sent us the pictures every day. We will not hesitate to call her again to look after our cat.”
About: Hi! We’re Will and Ellie (Wellie) — a British couple living permanently in Canada who work in the entertainment industry and love spending our downtime with furry friends. I (Ellie) have been fostering dogs since I was a teenager — especially pups who needed a little extra love, whether they were seniors, had medical issues, or came from tough backgrounds. I’ve helped care for lots of dogs who needed time to heal before finding their forever homes, so I’m super comfortable with giving meds, managing mobility, and just being a calm, reassuring presence. I’ve also looked after dogs with reactivity — whether that’s around other animals, people, or wildlife — and I always tailor care to what each dog needs to feel safe. Will works in wildlife and has tons of experience around animals too, so between the two of us, your pup is in good hands! We’ve both done in-home pet sitting (dogs and cats!) and have experience with everything from high-energy pups to cuddle bugs. We bought a house here in Canada just a year ago, and we're excited to start helping local families with their pets soon! We both work from home, ensuring any furry visitors have maximum attention and strokes throughout the day. During the week, we regularly let pets out into the yard for breaks, as well as two walks a day (to stretch our legs and theirs!). On the weekends we love to adventure into the parks for hiking or lake days, and we're always eager to bring your pup with us! We live in a house with a fully fenced yard that’s perfect for potty breaks and playtime. There’s a security camera system on the property, and we never leave dogs outside alone — we’re always right there with them. We also have indoor cameras so we can check in on your pup if we need to run out for a quick errand, just to make sure they’re safe and settled. Our yard backs right onto beautiful forest trails, and we’re a short walk from a great dog park too. That said, with unpredictable wildlife in the area, we always keep dogs on-leash during walks unless we’ve discussed otherwise with you in advance — and only if we both feel confident in your pup’s recall and comfort level. Your dog’s safety (and ours!) is the top priority, and we want to make sure everyone stays safe and happy no matter where we’re adventuring. We’re both used to handling outdoor animal encounters and tailor each outing to what your dog enjoys — whether that’s quiet sniffy walks, socialising, or just a quick pee break in the backyard.
About: I grew up with several family pets and my wife and I currently have 2 very active Australian Shepherds. My wife and I are outdoorsy and love walking, hiking, training and playing with our dogs. I’m currently available for walking services as well as drop-in visits. If you have a fenced area, I may also be able to provide doggy playdates with one of my Aussies to give your pet some playtime! In 2024 I’m available Saturdays & Sundays (usually anytime) and Mon-Fri (only after 6pm). My days off largely revolve around time with my wife and dogs outdoors, so some extra walks/drop-ins are easy to fit into my schedule. I’m happy to do drop-in services, and offer stimulating play sessions as well as exercise to keep your pet(s) occupied while you’re absent. One of my Aussies can join for added socialization/play sessions. A meet and greet is suggested prior to our first play session to ensure the dogs are compatible.
About: I'm sorry, but I can only take small breeds of dogs at the moment. I have extensive experience with all breeds of dogs. I had a boarding at home business for 10 years with over 100 clients who booked a year in advance for my services. I will only take one dog at a time. This is ideal if your dog does not get along with other dogs. Also, will get a lot of one on one time. I can also provide home visit services. I am now retired so have plenty of time to care for dogs in my home. I am home most of the time so your dog will not be left alone much. I can provide home visits as well. Lots of care and attention will be provided for your dog. Long walks multiple times during the day.
About: I have been pet sitting for family, friends and through pet sitting websites for many years. I absolutely love pets and am looking to fill the void of missing mine whilst living in Canada. I am currently working full time hours across 4 days per week. I work close to town and can duck home during lunch breaks if required. I am home for most of the weekends I am happy to follow and routine or structure for the pets I look after. I have one dog in the house where I live so I am unable to offer boarding boarding
About: Hello there! I'm an animal lover who is keen to help you provide the best possible care for your fur child. I work from home and lead an active lifestyle, so I'm able to meet your pet where they are at for their energy level and care requirements. I have experience with dog behavioural issues such as leash pulling, resource guarding, and extreme reactivity. Having owned a dog in the past with these issues, I've invested in training to help address these behaviours and can easily jump in to your current training plan to provide consistency for your dog. For boarding and daycare services, I live in pet-friendly apartment building with close proximity to quiet trails and a green space outside for quick and easy access to regular potty breaks. Work from home Monday-Friday. I may have the occasional virtual meeting to attend, but outside of that I have flexibility to tend to your pets needs throughout the day. I work with owners to maintain a consistent schedule and training for their pet. Owners are required to provide any specific tools (crate, leashes, etc.) that they would like me to use.
About: We had a cat in our household since I was 7 years old. I have a lot of experience with cat care since now I even have my own cat, unfortunately I couldn’t take him with me to Canada, so I am very excited to take care of your furry friend. I am used to taking care of the litter, playtime, snuggles, brushing or medical care such as giving pills or other types of treatment. I love spending time with cats and I am looking forward to meet yours!
About: Ive got over 1 year experience looking after cats small and big. I’m unable to have animals in my home but feel completely comfortable to house sit when pet owner is away or busy in work to keep their cat or any other animal entertained and well fed! I’m very flexible with timings and requirements, feel free to message about any concerns:)
About: Experienced dog-sitters from London, UK. Looked after two dogs loyally for 3.5yrs: day care, boarding and little holidays. My husband & I have moved to Canada last year and were missing our doggo-time so we set ourselves up on Rover. We now have vast experience of looking after new dogs (often on holiday), for single days, or up to a week. We are quick to bond and patient to understand your dog. We will give them the care, entertainment and exercise they need to have a great day 'away from the parents'! I work 100% remotely as an environmental sustainability consultant; my husband works as a mountain guide in the Rockies. We lead active lifestyles, but also love relaxing at home. Our building is pet-friendly, and we have a mini dog park outside. We have hard flooring throughout our flat but we would be happy to lay down additional rugs if required, depending on your pet's preferences. We don't have any stairs.
About: I provide care , support, attention all with love. I also have a strong understanding of the needs of others, as well as the importance of safety and their nervous systems. I am flexible with the schedule of your needs, if your schedule changes based on last minute appointments, trips or any other circumstances, I will accommodate as needed . I can accommodate in your home so that your put babies and loved ones are more comfortable in their own space and in their current routines .
“Valerie was amazing! I requested very last minute to have her come to our campsite and potty our dogs a couple of times in a day. She was super quick to respond, flexible and communicative. We really appreciated her taking care of our fur babies so we could enjoy the beauty of Banff!”
“Sara helped out last minute and was super accommodating to take care of our Annie! The house was spotless when she left as well. Very grateful for services and we would love to have her back.”
About: As lifelong dog lovers, we are excited to provide a safe, caring, and welcoming home environment for your pets while you are away. Pet care allows us to combine something we genuinely enjoy with the opportunity to save for future family travel adventures. Our household currently includes our 17-year-old daughter, who shares our love of animals and assists with pet care responsibilities. As my husband works away for extended periods, my daughter and I are the primary caregivers for the dogs staying in our home, ensuring they receive consistent attention, exercise, companionship, and supervision. We have experience caring for a wide variety of breeds and sizes, from small companion breeds such as Pugs to giant breeds such as St. Bernards. Our family owned a Black Lab/Golden Retriever cross for nine years, and we currently share our home with a medium-sized mixed breed dog and an indoor cat. Our home setup allows us to comfortably separate our cat from visiting dogs if needed. Our experience includes: • Daily dog walking and exercise routines • Caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs • Administering oral medications • Monitoring pets for changes in behaviour, appetite, or activity level • Providing companionship, enrichment, and individualized care based on each dog's needs • Experience handling dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments For the safety and comfort of all pets in our care, we ask that dogs staying in our home are friendly, non-aggressive, and comfortable around other animals and people. We do not have breed preferences and are happy to care for dogs of all sizes and backgrounds, provided they are a good fit for our home environment. We understand that every dog has unique needs and personalities, and we strive to provide the same level of care, attention, and affection that we would want for our own pets. We look forward to welcoming your furry family member into our home and providing them with exceptional care, plenty of exercise, and lots of affection while you are away I currently work full time in Canmore. I have an hour off for lunch that I head home for. My children are home all day during the summer. I have a large fenced yard with a very friendly dog that LOVES to play. Kids and I enjoy being outside as well ether in our green house or just enjoying life in the mountains.

“Laura was so kind and made Otis feel right at home right away. You could tell she loved dogs and went over and above taking him on multiple walks and sending us so many great pictures of his mountain adventures. It was our first time using Rover and the overall experience was so good - we will definitely be using it again. Thanks Laura for treating Otis like your own dog and taking such good care of him. He was so calm and relaxed for the rest of the evening.”
“David and Candice took amazing care of my rescue pup, Diesel! They are experienced with handling rescue dogs that need a little extra patience and kindness, and I’m so impressed with how well he settled in, even on his first day. They sent plenty of updates which helped relieve my anxieties and know he was in good hands! Would absolutely love to book with them again.”
“This was our first time leaving our dogs with anyone other than family and I was just a little apprehensive but the moment I met Stephanie, I felt completely at ease and out Goldens felt right at home right away. She and Robert took great care of them, took them for outdoor play and they even left with a special treat! 100 percent recommend trusting them with your dogs and we will abyreach out again in the future! Thanks so much to both of you.”
“Alex was great with Kira! Since dropping her off, Kira felt very comfortable and happy around Alex and her dog! I also felt confident about Alex taking good care of Kira and that I was leaving her in good hands. She took Kira for a long walks, and Kira came back happy and tired after spending the day with Alex. I would recommend her for sure!”
“Stacey and her husband took such wonderful care of our puppies! We’re so grateful we found them and wouldn’t hesitate to bring our pups back the next time we need a sitter in the area. Our puppies were clearly spoiled with love and attention, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away from them. We highly recommend Stacey and her husband!”

“Élise was more than happy to accommodate our last minute request and was great in her communication leading up to, during and after the walk. She made sure Kygo was well walked and settled back in after. Thank you Élise!”
“Ofer kindly and promptly accepted our last minute request for dog walking. My pup Miel was taken care of and a happy pup. I would recommend Ofer for your dog walking needs.”
“We’ve used Jill a few times now to walk our dog. She always follows the instructions, has great communication and is flexible with last minute requests. She’s great with our dog and we wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.”
“Second time Ellie has taken our little guy on his morning walk. He already loves Ellie and has settled right in with her. We are impressed that she does the full two hour walk, is punctual and keeps us up to date. We picked these guys as they seemed to really want to know about Rocky to make sure they felt they could keep him safe (and happy). These guys are just perfect!”
“Laura exceeded our expectations when we hired her for regular walks with our dog, Marley. She’s incredibly accommodating and we always looked forward to the photos and notes she left on the rover card every single walk they went on! We feel very fortunate to have had her service for the 6 months we were in town for work. We’re grateful for your kindness, Laura! Marley will miss you xoxo”

About: Hey! I’m Sarah and I am arguably the world’s biggest dog lover! I’ve grown up with dogs, and really really missed having them around when I moved to Canada from the UK 5 years ago. Because of that, I’ve been volunteering with a local, foster-based dog rescue for the past 3 years…which of course led to me adopting my own precious pup from them! I am experienced with a huge range of dog breeds, sizes and temperaments and have been fortunate enough to receive extensive behavioural and safety training whilst working with the rescue. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend soon! I currently work very flexible hours so I can be available as often as required to help you out with your pups scheduling needs. Walks, drop-in visits or home stays - you name it and I can make it work for you! My pet friendly home has a wonderful, resident pup to keep your four-legged friend company. We’re comfortable if you’re comfortable - crate or no crate, on leash walks or dog parks, it’s totally up to you!
“Evelyn was so accommodating when I needed a last minute walk for my pup, Hershey. He had an amazing adventure in Canmore with her! I will definitely be booking again next time I’m in the mountains :)”

“I booked Sara's services for a second week in a row, she is absolutely wonderful and am grateful for her spending her time coming out walking our pup. She is very reliable and love getting updates on how the visit went. Thank you again Sara!”
About: I live an active, mountain lifestyle. Pet lover and parent for many years. 9 year old large dog, 2 year old medium dog and 4 year old cat in my home. Love dog walks and cat cuddles. I’m fairly flexible as I’m self-employed and work between my home and studio in town. Active, mellow dogs and cats are a more suitable fit for longer days and overnight stays in my home. I do not have a fenced yard so we enjoy getting out for walks several times a day. We especially love the off-leash dog park at Quarry Lake.
