“5 stars from me for Kristina! She was so caring and made Milo’s overnight stay a breeze. She provided me with updates which made things a lot less stressful. I can’t wait to use her services again. Thank you so much!!”
“Finn and Tigg came home very contented and unstressed. I was constantly receiving updates while away on holidays. I have never seen my boys settle in with a stranger as quickly as they did. It was like they knew Alexis for years. Will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Carmen was fantastic in taking care of our dog! Our dog was treated as if he were at home, which is the most important thing to us. I received daily and timely updates, which made the experience much easier for us. Highly recommended!”
“Tanya took amazing care of Duke! He was relaxed, happy, and full of energy when we picked him up — not stressed at all. It was clear he really enjoyed his stay with her. We’ll definitely trust Tanya to watch Duke again!”
“Highly recommend! Rachel was so welcoming and awesome with our puppies. We would 100% recommend and we will be back! Our dogs had a blast and so good to have a home away from home environment for them.”
“Penny did a great job taking care of my young German shepherd when we were apart for the first time ever. There was a lot of play time and a huge yard to get some good runs in. You can tell that Penny has a lot of experience taking care of all kinds of different dogs and I would highly recommend her services for anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Aman took such great care of Ace! It’s worrisome leaving your pitty in a environment he doesn’t know but he absolutely loved it! Ace stayed for a week and Aman kept me updated everyday, she sent pictures and videos too. If I ever have to board Ace again, I have complete faith and trust in Aman. When Ace was picked up, seemed like he was sad he was coming back and wanted to stay with his friends!”
“Lisa is sooooo great! Nothing but good words for her! I originally booked a different sitter but that sitter canceled and asked us to take Soba back as they can't handle my furbaby. It was so stressful, but Lisa was my saviour!!! She agreed to take care of Soba and didn't think twice about taking him. Soba even got along with her dog. She sent me pictures to update me whats going on with him and their daily activities. I feel so happy knowing that my furbaby is really taken care of. Thank you so much Lisa! I appreciate you. I would definitely recommend and use her service again. Thank you.”
“The loving environment Kandie created for my pup Doug was so appreciated. For two weeks they reassured me on his care and the fun he was given. He was a puppy and definitely a handful, but you wouldn’t of known it by the positive reviews, pics and comments given every day. Thank you so much for allowing me to enjoy my vacation worry free. Doug just adored you.”
“Aaron sent so many updates and as an anxious dog mom with an anxious pup this was so appreciated. She said my girl got along well with her pups and I love that she had extra pup friends to keep her company while I was away. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone and it was a very positive one. Will absolutely be using Aaron in the future again!”
About: We have had 3 dogs most of our relationship (10+ Years strong), they're all getting on abit in age now but still as spry as they were as puppies. We like to treat them to a walk a day, whether that's around Airdrie or Calgary or on a hike further afield. Your pet would be treated as part of our family for the duration they are with us - We'd ensure that they have enough stimulation to keep them from being upset that you're not around for them. Our French Bulldog is extremely playful and friendly and would love to make new friends. Our Shih Tzu will ensure that your dog is on its best behaviour & and our Husky would be a calming presence for them and enjoys going for longer walks with the more energetic dogs. We've been dealing with Allergies for our 2 smaller dogs so have them on medication - We're able to adapt and provide for your pets as needed. We are both home full time so your pet wouldn't be alone or upset that you're not around at any point in time. We both work from home full time - Available any and everyday in order to ensure your dog is comfortable, cuddled and loved while you're away. Fully fenced yard. Will be able to accept dogs that are friendly with others and like other dogs company. We can use Kennels or gates as needed based on your typical care, although we allow our dogs free reign (other than sleeping with us!)
“Cheree took such good care of my cat. I felt good knowing she (my cat) was in a loving home and was being cared for and looked after while I was away. She kept me updated and sent me pictures on how my girl was doing and I really appreciated that. I would definitely recommend her to look after your fur baby.”
“Jason was GREAT with Mac, very attentive and can see how much he cares for animals. Treated Mac like he was his own. Updated daily with how he was doing. Took him on lots of walks. If you want your pet to be treated like family, I'd HIGHLY recommend Jason to look after your pet.”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, and other small pets. My experience ranges from daily feeding, walking, grooming, and cleaning enclosures to providing companionship, basic training reinforcement, and medication when needed. I’m comfortable with animals of all sizes, ages, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and loved while their owners are away, and I always treat every animal as if they were my own I’m a university student with most of my classes scheduled mid-day, which gives me a flexible schedule in the mornings, evenings, and many afternoons. This allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, feeding times, and extended care as needed. When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water at all times, and get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention. I tailor care to each pet’s needs—whether that means long walks, quiet companionship, litter or enclosure cleaning, grooming, or administering medication if required. I keep owners updated with messages and photos, and I always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and a calm environment so pets feel secure while their owners are away.
“Andrea was great, it was so reassuring to have someone who understands the anxiety that comes with leaving pets at home. My kitties were in great hands and I came home to happy healthy kitties which is always a great feeling. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“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: I’ve had plenty of barn cats growing up, and I loved taking responsibility for my fur babies. My sweet girl, in my picture is my pride and joy. You can’t ever spoil a cat. She can be spicy, but it’s been a learning experience curve and much needed.
“Great experience with Felix and Rachel, such a personalized approach! Came back to happy, fed and clean fur babies. Rachel has been very responsive and explained all the details. Thank you!!”
“Brianna was fantastic! Great communication and she took great care of my boy who had asthma. Very respectful of my home as well. Came home to a clean home and a happy cat! Will definitely rebook in the future!”
“Gabriella was great - prompt response when I sent in a cat sitting request She looked after my pet (cat) just over a week, and all went well She even shoveled the snow on the driveway!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience and genuine passion for caring for cats. I’ve raised nearly 50 cats over the years, each with their own unique personality, needs, and quirks—so I truly understand feline behavior and how to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your cat is playful, independent, or requires a little extra patience, I tailor my approach to fit their temperament. I’m also experienced in administering oral medications and keeping things spotless—deep-cleaning litter boxes and maintaining clean feeding areas are part of the routine. Your cat’s well-being is my top priority, and I’m here to provide reliable, loving care while you’re away.
About: My kids are grown, I’m on my own but haven’t set new roots. This is my time to move around and I’d like to be of use. Willing to travel and often do between Cochrane, Kelowna and Grande Prairie too. I prefer to care for two or a few, im used to juggling a crew. I have been housesitting for friends and family a long time, I used to be a property maintenance manager, and now I am doing a course online. You can take the mom out of the nest, but you can’t take the nest out of the Mom. Caring for homes, pets, plants and people has always been part of who I am.
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my genuine love for animals and my firsthand experience as both a pet owner and pet sitter. As a previous pet owner, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, reliable, and caring to look after your pets. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, administering basic care, providing companionship, and maintaining their routines to help them feel comfortable while you're away. I treat every pet as if they were my own, taking the time to learn their personality, needs, and preferences. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their furry family members are happy, safe, and well cared for. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. As a rotational worker, I have two weeks off at a time, which gives me the flexibility and availability to dedicate quality time to caring for pets. During my time off, I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals through dog walking, pet sitting, and drop-in visits. Having been a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of maintaining consistent feeding, exercise, play, and companionship routines to keep pets happy and comfortable. I tailor my care to each pet's needs and the service being provided. For dog walking, I ensure pets get safe exercise, fresh water, and plenty of attention. For drop-in visits, I follow the owner's instructions for feeding, medication (if required), litter box cleaning, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. For pet sitting in a client's home, I maintain the pet's normal routine as closely as possible to reduce stress, including feeding schedules, walks, exercise, and lots of affection. As a former pet owner and experienced dog and cat sitter, I understand the importance of reliability, patience, and keeping owners updated on their pet's well-being.

“Kateryna is a wonderful! Kateryna went above and beyond in taking care of my cat while I was away. From the moment I met her, I could tell she was passionate about animals. She followed all instructions meticulously, ensuring my cat's routine was maintained. Kateryna provided regular updates, including photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind knowing my furry friend was in good hands. I returned home to a happy and well-cared-for cat. I highly recommend Kateryna to anyone in need of a reliable and caring cat sitter. Thank you for your outstanding service!!!”
About: Hi! My name is Matthew! For as long as I can remember I have been surrounded by animals. Cats in particular, have held a very big place in my heart and in my every day life for a long time.

“I brought Bowie over a few days before for piece of mind since I’ve never left her with anyone but family before. Tabitha and her husband were so great!

I have a designated place for potty in the backyard and feel very confident to keep any dog safe even out on a walk!
“We have several friends and relatives that can take care of Brisket when needed, but we wanted to have backup sitters in case of emergency. This visit was only a chance for Brisky to get familiar with Kevin and Erin and their pups. Good people, they are clearly dog people and we are looking forward to utilizing them through Rover in the future.”
About: I have had dogs my entire life from puppy to elderly and have been a care taker for many other friends dogs before joining Rover. My dog and I love hiking & camping in the backcountry and being outside where he belongs. I do not have a fenced in back yard, but I have a safe & secure deck that they love sitting on for fresh air between walks. I typically walk my dog 4-6 times a day/10-15km. I work remote and have a very flexible schedule all day and am able to be very attentive to your dog. We typically do multiple short 30 minute walks every 3-4 hours and one long 1hr walk once a day. (aprox 10-15km per day) My golden retriever loves socializing with dogs and is very submissive. Gets along well with almost every dog (exception is some dominant dogs scare him)

Prior to my leave, I was an infant nanny for the last seven years while completing my honours bachelor in childhood development. As mentioned, I am home from work for the foreseeable future and have lots of time on my hands to go on hikes and to play with your pets.

We live on a quiet street and are close to trails and amenities that my dogs and I use often.
About: Like many others, I have been blessed with having the ability to care for animals throughout my life. In 2015, I had the wonderful opportunity to follow my passion professionally. I began working in a veterinarian clinic as a receptionist, technician assistant and external boarding for cats. After the adoption of our beloved Trixie in 2018, my focus shifted to behavior training while continuing care within the small animal medical atmosphere. Recently, I became certified as a professional pet dog trainer and specialized in aggression/reactivity/seperation anxiety. I continue my education through conferences/mentor sessions and am working towards becoming CCPDT certified. I am also an enrichment scent work instructor. I also have my Canine First Aid certification. If you are looking for someone to care for your companion, and would like to add any of the services that are mentioned above during their time with me (or at another time), I would love to get to know you and your companion. I am currently a stay at home mom and provide individualized training consultations as well as general pet care during early mornings and evenings during the week (including weekends). I offer limited care (1 or 2 dogs at a time) in my own home during the day if need be. My only requirements are that your companion not have prey drive (I do have cats and young children) and are good with another female adult dog. I have a large fenced in yard, and can accommodate your specific instructions/requirements as much as possible. Your companion will always be supervised and never left unattended.
About: I’ve had a love of animals since I was a kid and grew up with dogs & cats.

I work from home part-time so will be home with your pet at all times and will be able to go on frequent walks with them. We have a fenced yard with lots of dog toys and a big house for them to roam as no spaces are off limits. I have a fenced yard and designated pet area inside home for pets to relax. If you are using my pet services I do need your animal to be good with cats and dogs as we have one senior friendly dog and a cat. Also; have a young daughter so your pets must be good with kids as well.

About: I have been an animal lover my whole life. My first pup was a recuse from a puppy mill and we loved her for 16 years. When i was a young adult, i recused a stray tabby who sadly just past away at the ripe age of 21. We then just rescued another cat named Budweiser (not our choice but love it 😂) Now, my family and i have just finished loving our mini golden doodle in her 13th year and our hearts are missing that puppy presence. I have also volunteered in Nunavut at the animal rescue shelter and loved every minute of it. I am a stay at home mom. Now with two of my three kids in school full time and a daughter in kinder. We are a sports filled family, so after school activities are always happening but we can discuss hours that work for all of us. I have a fenced in yard and a furry friend to keep you pup company. I have a baby gate at the front door to allow the pups to sniff and meet before enjoying our day together.

About: I lived with a friend on a hobby farm. She showed me the ropes. I learned how to take care of all animals big and small. I am willing and able to assist in medicine administration. I have tons of free time that I’d love to dedicate to ensuring your furry friend has their needs through the day and even when you’re on vacation I work from home, starting up my own business but I have free availability pretty much all day. I hardly ever leave the province and can dedicate as much time needed with your fur babies as you need! I won’t have pets in my home as I have a cat myself, but I will ensure I know where all food, treats, toys and everything else they require before you leave. I will ask for an emergency response plan in the event I need to get ahold of you asap. I also have my own reliable transportation and will ask for the vet you use in dire emergencies. I will also supervise play time as I know how quick everything can go sideways. I also am very clean, if there’s a mess from your pet, it’ll be cleaned. And I have no problem cleaning litter boxes as well.

“Felix and Rachel are amazing and reliable dog walkers. They have been walking my 3 year old Labrador retriever for a few months now. They send helpful pictures and updates, and help feed the doggo once in awhile too! They put a lot of effort into the walks, sometimes bringing my dog to a dog park or a nearby lake for some swimming. Highly recommend them :)”

About: I currently work from home in marketing from Calgary and I'm looking for some extra work that aligns with my passion for animals. I have experience taking care of animals (meal prep, grooming, feeding, playing etc.). I would love to meet your furry friends 😊 When I come to your house I will dedicate my time to providing lots of nourishment and entertainment for your pet. There's nothing I love more than cats and dogs, animals make me happy. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets. I work from home so there is alot of flexibility for time of day. I can also take last minute requests. I can be available on weekends as well. I live with an Australian Shepherd and take him for walks multiple times per day. I have experience feeding, cleaning and playing with dogs and cats.
About: I have a very high tolerance and patience with all sizes and breeds. I am okay with cats as well. I’ve trained a couple of my friends animals a few times. And I love just getting out for exercise so would love to look after your fur companion to give him/her some exercise as well :) I was the kid who took in all the animals who were homeless. I am very energetic as well so if you have a very high energy dog don’t you worry!! I’m a student who is looking to get out more, make a bit of pocket money, and have a little fur companion to hang out with during the day. I can't wait to meet your fur babies and companions. I work throughout the week from 9-2pm and sometimes off earlier it depends! I also have a vehicle to commute to your pet. Weekends are open and evenings! If I’m walking your pup I have had clients leave their treats and leash in the area that is visible but it is whatever you are comfortable with, I am very flexible!

“5 stars from me for Kristina! She was so caring and made Milo’s overnight stay a breeze. She provided me with updates which made things a lot less stressful. I can’t wait to use her services again. Thank you so much!!”
“Finn and Tigg came home very contented and unstressed. I was constantly receiving updates while away on holidays. I have never seen my boys settle in with a stranger as quickly as they did. It was like they knew Alexis for years. Will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Carmen was fantastic in taking care of our dog! Our dog was treated as if he were at home, which is the most important thing to us. I received daily and timely updates, which made the experience much easier for us. Highly recommended!”
“Tanya took amazing care of Duke! He was relaxed, happy, and full of energy when we picked him up — not stressed at all. It was clear he really enjoyed his stay with her. We’ll definitely trust Tanya to watch Duke again!”
“Highly recommend! Rachel was so welcoming and awesome with our puppies. We would 100% recommend and we will be back! Our dogs had a blast and so good to have a home away from home environment for them.”
“Penny did a great job taking care of my young German shepherd when we were apart for the first time ever. There was a lot of play time and a huge yard to get some good runs in. You can tell that Penny has a lot of experience taking care of all kinds of different dogs and I would highly recommend her services for anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Aman took such great care of Ace! It’s worrisome leaving your pitty in a environment he doesn’t know but he absolutely loved it! Ace stayed for a week and Aman kept me updated everyday, she sent pictures and videos too. If I ever have to board Ace again, I have complete faith and trust in Aman. When Ace was picked up, seemed like he was sad he was coming back and wanted to stay with his friends!”
“Lisa is sooooo great! Nothing but good words for her! I originally booked a different sitter but that sitter canceled and asked us to take Soba back as they can't handle my furbaby. It was so stressful, but Lisa was my saviour!!! She agreed to take care of Soba and didn't think twice about taking him. Soba even got along with her dog. She sent me pictures to update me whats going on with him and their daily activities. I feel so happy knowing that my furbaby is really taken care of. Thank you so much Lisa! I appreciate you. I would definitely recommend and use her service again. Thank you.”
“The loving environment Kandie created for my pup Doug was so appreciated. For two weeks they reassured me on his care and the fun he was given. He was a puppy and definitely a handful, but you wouldn’t of known it by the positive reviews, pics and comments given every day. Thank you so much for allowing me to enjoy my vacation worry free. Doug just adored you.”
“Aaron sent so many updates and as an anxious dog mom with an anxious pup this was so appreciated. She said my girl got along well with her pups and I love that she had extra pup friends to keep her company while I was away. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone and it was a very positive one. Will absolutely be using Aaron in the future again!”
About: We have had 3 dogs most of our relationship (10+ Years strong), they're all getting on abit in age now but still as spry as they were as puppies. We like to treat them to a walk a day, whether that's around Airdrie or Calgary or on a hike further afield. Your pet would be treated as part of our family for the duration they are with us - We'd ensure that they have enough stimulation to keep them from being upset that you're not around for them. Our French Bulldog is extremely playful and friendly and would love to make new friends. Our Shih Tzu will ensure that your dog is on its best behaviour & and our Husky would be a calming presence for them and enjoys going for longer walks with the more energetic dogs. We've been dealing with Allergies for our 2 smaller dogs so have them on medication - We're able to adapt and provide for your pets as needed. We are both home full time so your pet wouldn't be alone or upset that you're not around at any point in time. We both work from home full time - Available any and everyday in order to ensure your dog is comfortable, cuddled and loved while you're away. Fully fenced yard. Will be able to accept dogs that are friendly with others and like other dogs company. We can use Kennels or gates as needed based on your typical care, although we allow our dogs free reign (other than sleeping with us!)
“Jason was GREAT with Mac, very attentive and can see how much he cares for animals. Treated Mac like he was his own. Updated daily with how he was doing. Took him on lots of walks. If you want your pet to be treated like family, I'd HIGHLY recommend Jason to look after your pet.”
“Teaghan was wonderful to chat with leading up to time of drop off - this was just as important for me, as she was genuinely interested in how to keep our dog safe, comfortable and well taken care of. She was even willing to meet before hand to get to meet and greet with our pup as it was our first time using a sitter for our dog. Frequent texts, picture updates and great exercise Completed the care for our dog. I could tell on pick up that our dog wasn’t stressed, nor eager to leave. Would definitely recommend Teaghan for her services and will use her again, myself, for any doggy sitting needs. Great work, keep it up!”
“I Highly recommend Kristina for excellent care of your dog. Murphy was very well taken care of for sure. Kristina sent pictures and videos of Murphys vacation away from home. A excellent sitter, I would recommend Kristina and family to take great care of your hound... I will be booking again with Kristina next vacation for certian.”
“Charlene took great care of Fancy while we were away for the weekend. She sent a bunch of lovely photos throughout the weekend leaving us with no doubt that Fancy was in good hands and enjoying herself. Fancy went on plenty of walks and had lots of good plays with the other pups. We’ll definitely be reaching out again next time Fancy needs boarding.”
About: Hi friends, I'm Jenna—a 35-year-old animal lover currently living life with my sweet four-year-old pup, Duckie. He has a calm, nanny-like temperament and absolutely loves the company of other dogs. Our days are usually filled with peaceful walks, relaxed hangouts, and plenty of cuddles. If your dog is looking for a low-stress, loving environment with a built-in buddy, we’d be happy to welcome them. I spent three summers working with a professional pet care company in Airdrie and Calgary, where I cared for a wide range of animals. My experience includes: Group walks (on- and off-leash) Administering medications, including injections Following detailed feeding routines Overnight pet sitting Pet transportation Cleaning enclosures for small pets like rabbits, guinea pigs, mice, and birds After more than 10 years in Airdrie and Calgary, I recently relocated to Central Alberta. I'm slowly getting to know the area and would love any local recommendations for great on- or off-leash dog parks! When I’m not pet sitting, you’ll usually find me out playing softball, hiking, camping, paddle boarding, or spending time at the lake—and I always bring my furry friends along. If you're comfortable with your pet joining me on outdoor adventures, it's a fantastic way for them to stay active and socialized. Above all, my top priority is your pet's safety and well-being. I’ll never put them in a situation I wouldn’t feel safe in myself. Open, honest communication with pet owners is really important to me. I want to know everything I can—whether it’s leash reactivity, size preferences, or personality quirks—so I can give your pet the best care possible. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup soon! Jenna (& Duckie) With being a teacher, I have summers off, which means I can make myself available for your pet for 24 hours a day. However, that will change once school starts back up in the fall I never put your pet in a situation that could turn out to be harmful or dangerous. Safety and communication are very important to me.
