“My girl is a reacued dog. She is very shay and has some trauma so I was worried about sending her for overnights. However, Anna was awesome. She knows how to deal with nervous dogs. She gave us some good tips and advices as well. I could feel her sincere love towards to dogs. Thank you so much!!”
“Kub seemed so happy when we picked him up. Whitney and her family took such good care of him. We were excited to hear how he was doing and get pictures of his stay daily. We extended our stay about 5 hours and Whitney was more than happy to accommodate that. We will definitely be using her again.”

About: I have had animals in my home since I was 7 years old. I have had a variety of different animals, and along the way they have all left an imprint on my heart in there own way and have taught me many lessons. I currently live on a farm, and have many animals and experience with many different types of animals. I have taken two training courses, and now train all our own animals. I have also fostered in Calgary for 8 years before moving to the farm. I have specialized in rehabilitation, shy, abused, fearful, and neglected animals. I give these animals grace, a loving, soft and caring place to be able to find forever homes, and in some cases my home was home. I have had seniors, wounded, babies, and sick animals in my home. We have also had new births and babies on the farm. I am truly meant to be taking care of animals, definitely my calling. Now that my kids are grown I left the school system, and I am getting back to what I love. This along with my farm are my commitments. I can devote all the time needed to care for your fur family as required. I have a fully fenced 2 acre area for dogs to play. I do have a heated shop, and outdoor run available, that always are accessable. I have rooms in my home that when we take in dogs it's designated their space. Free roam is all day when home. But unless I need to leave, for the safety of your animals, a round wire area is designated for your pet. Will also depend on frequency and relationship built, these dynamics could change over time.
About: Hello! My name is Sara! I’ve had pets my entire life and enjoy caring for others in addition to my own. I have experience caring for cats and dogs of different sizes and breeds, including those with extra needs such as medications. I have one dog of my own named Willow, she is a black lab mix with a lot of energy. While I'm not able to host other dogs at my place, I'm more than happy to take care of your pets in the comfort of their own home. I have a regular day to day job that has me out of the house for 8 - 9 hours a day Monday through Friday. What care routine do you follow in your home? The routine you have set is what will be followed while I'm caring for your pets.
“Great communication the entire time. Very passionate about this job, tons of pictures and videos and updates every day. Will definitely rebook when I need a pet sitter again, exactly the kind of person I'd want watching my pets”
“Andrea was excellent at looking after our 2 diabetic cats. Being diabetic they require set feeding times and insulin injections twice daily. She was able to accommodate our schedule, which was very appreciated. One of our cats can also get quite anxious when we are away, so requires attention and cuddles. Andrea was great at giving both of them this, playing with them and spending time giving them attention. We recommend Andrea for pet sitting, and will be using her services again!”
About: I have been around animals my whole life. Reptiles,cats,dogs,birds and enjoy spending my time around them.I'm experienced in giving my own cat medication and have experienced doing injections so im confident in my ability to do so with your animal.due to my experience in walking and pet sitting for many years and working in a preschool for three years I have lots of experience in animal and child care and would love to care properly for your animal
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.
About: I have been raised around cats and currently have a cat of my own who is 8 years old. I love spending time with cats, even those that don't want to be touched or bothered. My cat comes from a traumatic background and requires a lot of patience and time to open up. I am used to all different cat personalities and think they are truly incredible creatures.
About: I’ve helped run a home-based cat shelter and volunteered at a shelter in Canada, so I’m used to all kinds of cats—shy, sassy, senior, or extra needy. I’m comfortable with all medical care, including pills, injections, and special-needs routines. I’m patient, gentle, and happy to take the time to earn trust, keep litter boxes truly clean, and make sure every cat feels safe, calm, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾
“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!”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I recently moved to Canada from Ukraine, while my own dog, Oskar, stayed back home with my family. I miss him every day, and caring for other dogs brings me so much joy and helps me feel connected to what I love most. I’ve spent years looking after Oskar as well as dogs belonging to friends and family. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always treat them with patience, kindness, and love. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM. Before and after work, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and love. I’m available for overnight stays, evenings, weekends, and longer bookings. I’ll always follow your pet’s routine and provide regular photo and message updates, so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy supervised outdoor time. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special instructions. I believe every dog deserves to feel relaxed, loved, and at home while their family is away :)
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.
“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!”
“Hamsha was a great cat sitter and she got along really well with my cat. She understood his personality, provided very thoughtful and timely updates with photos every time, and was very happy to deal with unexpected events. Very responsive too — always answering messages pretty fast and doing punctual visits during the time agreed. It was also a breeze to arrange a time for keys dropoff + meet & greet :) I can't recommend her enough!”
“Kateryna was amazing!! She was really flexible with last minute changes and caring with our cats. She really cared for them and made me feel better when I was away from them. We will make sure to book her again for our next trip. Thank you Kateryna!!”

“We are incredibly grateful for the fantastic care Muffin received from Lynett & Romeo! 😃 From the moment we dropped her off, we felt at ease knowing she was in such good hands. Not only did they provide our Muffin with endless love and companionship throughout the day, but they also kept us updated with adorable pictures! 📸 Their attentive nature and genuine affection for dogs truly stand out. We highly recommend Lynett & Romeo to anyone in need of a loving and responsible dog sitter. We can’t wait for our next visit! Thank you again for all you do! 🐾”

Definitely she is going to be my go to dog sitter in future. I would highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter.”

“Lokka loves to visit Christine and her furry friends. She get very excited when we turn onto Christine’s street. I know Lokka is having the best time and is well taken care of.”
About: I've been surrounded by pets my entire life, growing up in a home filled with furry companions. Caring for animals comes naturally to me, and I understand how much love and attention they need. Today, I share my home with a very cute Shih Tzu and a loving cat, so I know firsthand the importance of patience, routine, and lots of affection. Whether it’s caring for energetic puppies, providing comfort to senior pets, or simply making sure your pet feels safe and happy while you're away, I treat every animal like they’re my own! My husband and I bothe work from home so your pet will always have company! We have a flexible schedule, pot breaks are no problem for us. Every pet has their own personality, quirks, and favorite routines—just like us! My goal is to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Whether it's belly rubs for a playful pup, quiet companionship for a shy dog, or extra patience with a senior pet, I adapt to their needs. I take the time to understand their habits, favorite toys, and even the little things—like how they like their treats or their favorite nap spot. Your pet won’t just be cared for—they’ll feel at home.
“Xi truly is the best! She has an amazing space for the animals both in and outside, she consistently sends photos of my boy having the MOST fun and he always comes home tired after a long day of playing hard with his friends. We had recently switched sitters/daycare as his previous sitter had to move, although Loki is a great boy I was nervous for him being anxious by new environments/people. He has went for the day, a couple hours and spent the night. Xi does it all. She always gives the best updates during the day via the app as well as touches base in person for pick-up. I would recommend Xi to anybody with a fur-baby. Truly a pleasure working with her.”
“Jessica and Alvin were amazing!! She sent great photo updates throughout the day and brought our dogs on a nice long walk adventure, dropping them off to us happy and tuckered out. We will definitely be booking with her again, highly recommend:)”
“Emily has been so amazing with Tucker! She’s lovely, easy to coordinate with, and very flexible! Would highly recommend her to anyone who’s looking for a lovely companion for their pup!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 7. Everything started at my grandma’s house where I used to pet sit her cat which led to me owning a cat and a dog at our house which I had to pet sit when my mom and dad were away. My loves for pets started growing since then and am currently doing it with for 2 years here in Rover. I do petsit for our friends when they go away for family vacations and this has been an amazing experience. I do believe with my experience, we will be your perfect pet sitters🐶🐱 We are both working full-time and we are open to working weekdays and weekends too. We are in the house weekdays 5pm till 8am next morning and available in the house all day on weekends. We like going for walks and we can put your pets into our daily evening walks routine.

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 full time in the city and I hardly ever leave the province and can dedicate as much time needed with your fur babies as you need! I’m very good with early mornings and late night visits. 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.

About: Ever since I was a baby I’ve spent my life around animals from small to large, domestic to farm. I have always had a deep compassion for animals. As a child I always wanted to be around and with animals wanting to grow up working with them in any way. I have 5 years of experience working on a dairy farm and have worked at a doggy daycare. In 2023 I got my first puppy as an adult. Since then I have rescued 1, and had 2 rehomed to me as well. In my free time a few days a week I volunteer at the CHS taking dogs out for the day giving them a break from the shelter, showing them what everyday life looks like. Animals are already a huge part of my everyday life, so dog walking fits very naturally into my routine. I have a flexible schedule with availability every other week from 4:30pm–10:00pm, and on alternating weeks from 7:00am–10:00pm. I enjoy getting out for walks, spending time with dogs, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away or busy. I always try to make pets feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible by sticking to their normal routines, giving them lots of attention, and making sure they feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes and personalities, and I understand how important trust, patience, and consistency are when caring for someone else’s pet.
About: We welcome only one family’s dog(s) at a time, so your pup enjoys a calm, personalized stay with our family in a peaceful home setting. My retired parents love having dogs around and are home throughout the day, so your dog has plenty of company, care, and attention. Your pup is rarely left alone. We know every dog is different, so we take the time to learn their routine, personality, and what helps them feel comfortable. Our goal is for your dog to feel safe, relaxed and at home while you’re away. I know leaving your dog with someone new can be nerve wracking. I’m always happy to do a meet & greet before the first stay. You’ll also receive regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. My parents are both retired and genuinely love having dogs around the house. Between my parents and me, there’s almost always someone home, so your dog will have plenty of company throughout the day. We also only take a small number of dogs at a time because we want each one to get plenty of attention and feel comfortable here, not just be one of many. We have a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can safely run and play, along with plenty of cozy spots inside. We also back onto a park, so walks are easy and there’s always something new to explore.
About: I have owned and cared for dogs and cats in my life for over 50 years and have an amazing ability for having them relate to me.

About: Hi! I’m a proud maltipoo mom to my sweet boy, Romeo 🐶 He loves other dogs just as much as I do! I would absolutely love the opportunity to care for your fur baby and will treat them like one of my own. I’ve looked after multiple dogs before and feel very confident handling different personalities and situations. Having raised Romeo myself, I’m attentive, patient, and always prioritize safety, love, and lots of playtime. I can’t wait to meet your pup! 💛 I work from home, so your pup will always have company and supervision throughout the day! 🐾 I also have a maltipoo named Romeo, who is friendly, playful, and used to being around other dogs. Since I’m home, I take regular breaks to walk and play with him, and I’ll happily include your dog in all the fun. I finish work at 3 PM, which gives me plenty of time in the afternoons for longer walks, playtime, and extra cuddles. Your dog will get lots of attention, love, and care in a safe, calm environment! 💛 I live in a condo that’s dog friendly and live very close to a dog park. As a pet owner I always ensure the house is clean and floors are spotless.
About: Growing up with 3 large dogs and 1-2 cats at any given time, I will be excellent with your fur babies. I am very reliable, and excited to meet your pets! I currently have a cat who is a two year old brown tabby. She has enough energy for the entire household and loves running around the house playing with whatever she can find. I love sports, specifically hockey, and love to be active whether that be a run or rollerblade by myself! I also enjoy doing puzzles, but it is tricky when my cat knocks over all of the pieces onto the floor. I am full of love and here for all your pet-care needs :) I’m currently working full time from home but am affording the flexibility to check on your pets during the day most times! Let me know how I can best care for your pet :) I love creating an environment where the animal is stress-free and feels loved and at home. Show me your routine and help me be a seamless shoe-in during your absence!

“Vahista was awesome with our two big girls who are not the easiest to handle! My girls love her and they are well taken care of on their weekend walks!! Can’t wait to keep this relationship going with the girls and Vahista🤗💛”
About: Experienced with large breeds and multi-dog households, including German Shepherds, Pit Bulls, and Great Danes. Whether your dog is a couch cuddler or a 120-pound chaos machine, I’m comfortable handling it all. I’ve cared for dogs for weeks at a time, including walks, feeding, medications, playtime, and daily routines, so drop-in visits and regular walks are no problem. I also regularly care for my brother’s German Shepherd, so I’m very comfortable with strong, high-energy dogs and giving them the attention, patience, and care they deserve. As a flight attendant, my schedule gives me flexibility during the week, which makes pet care easy to fit into my routine. On my days off, I have plenty of time for walks, drop-in visits, feeding routines, playtime, and giving pets the attention they deserve. I’m also very organized and used to managing schedules and routines professionally, so reliability, communication, and punctuality are extremely important to me, both in aviation and in caring for your pets. I care for every pet as if they were my own and always try to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all feeding schedules, walk routines, medication instructions, and any specific care requests closely while also making sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I’m experienced with both high-energy dogs and more independent cats, so I adapt to each pet’s personality and comfort level. Cleanliness, safety, and communication are also very important to me, and I always make sure owners feel updated and reassured while they’re away.
About: I’ve had 5 dogs in my household since I was born. I trained 2 out of the five as I got older. I have pet sitted before and I have an absolute love for dogs. Currently we have adopted a puppy from fostering, we absolutely love her! We don’t know the breed or how big she will get but she’s been an absolute delight in our household! I always enjoy a good walk myself or a visit to a family friendly park with other dogs. Currently working on dog parks with my own puppy at home! Over the summer months would like to walk more dogs as my job is currently slow. I love the outdoors so I definitely enjoy taking my puppy for walks and to parks with nice scenic views. We enjoy visiting other dogs for play time for socialization! I enjoy playing with toys with our puppy, chasing a ball outside or teaching her how to be without a leash. We always use treats to learn new skills!
“Gabriella saved my day! I needed a last minute walk done and she accepted. Gunner was very happy and content when I got home and Gabrielle was wonderful, sending pictures and great communication.”
About: I've fostered dogs, took care of neighbors animals and done dog walking. I have my own yellow lab who is my emotional support girl! I love puppies and senior dogs and all ages in between. I have lots of time for lunch walks, after work walks or play and can most definitely do weekends and have your fur baby stay with me too I take my dog for 3 to 4 walks a day so I can do the same for yours. We go to the river and throw the ball or she swims a bit.
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!
About: I have always had a special connection to animals. I have lots of experience with large to small dogs. I love going on multiple walks with the pups as well as taking them on hikes out to the mountains (if that is something you wish). I have no problem taking them to a dog park as I have an suv. I will send updates on your animals with pictures and videos. I myself have a cat so I have a lot of experience with felines as well. You can count on me to give your fur babes the best love,attention, cuddles and care. If you would like me to stay at your home overnight I will treat it as my own and make sure to leave it in pristine condition. I look forwards to meeting you and making new furry friends.
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.

“First time leaving our puppy and we chose to leave her with Romeo and Lynett. What a fantastic experience…I don’t think our girl really wanted to come home. Thanks so much for taking such good care of our fur baby. The pictures and updates were much appreciated.”
“Absolutely wonderful! She is kind, reliable, and truly loves animals. Singa was happy, calm, and well cared for the entire time. We had total peace of mind and would highly recommend her to anyone every single time always.”
“Lori & Wayne was very welcoming. Made me feel comfortable leaving Lucy for the first time. Thank you for the clear & quick communication and constant updates. Lucy will be seeing you again sooner or later! 😄”
“Lacey and her family are the best sitters I have ever found! Penny is so excited to get to their house and is so happy when she gets home. Lacey sends updates and photos and is super responsive!”
“Ania has taken care of Mochi on multiple occasions and she’s readily available! She helped us with a last minute planned trip. Her place is perfect for a dog to stay especially in this weather! She kept us updated with Mochi and is our trusted dog sitter! Thank you Ania for being available for us and always willing to take care of Mochi.”
“Kayla took such great care of our pup, Axel! We felt reassured during our entire trip that our Axel was loved and well taken care of. She sent us lots of pictures, gave us updates on what he did, who he played with. He had ample socialization and was absolutely spoiled rotten. He even got a bath right before we picked him up! Will 1000% rebook for our future trips!”
“Our dog Stu had a wonderful weekend staying at Haley's house. Lots of playing, outdoor time, and relaxing! We got so many updates throughout the weekend. 10/10 communication and care from Haley.”
“Jeff and his family took such a good care of Scooby. Scooby is a very anxious dog. This was Scooby's first boarding experience and looks like he loved it. They send pictures everyday and updated us as well about day to day activities. Will be booking back for sure! Thank you for everything you guys did for our little Scooby.”
“I can't speak highly enough about our experience with Lisa. She is kind, gentle and compassionate. Our dog was happy and well cared for with Lisa. Lisa also shared some dog training tips with me, which I greatly appreciate! Thank you, thank you!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received. Argo was looked after with incredible attention to detail, and it was clear every aspect of his routine and comfort was handled meticulously. I especially appreciated the consistent updates—photos and videos that gave me real peace of mind while I was away. Professional, reliable, and genuinely caring, Kevin went above and beyond. I would absolutely trust him again and highly recommend his services to anyone looking for top-tier dog care. Thanks Kevin!”
“Karen was wonderful with our almost one year old mini Aussie shepherd. From the moment we dropped him off we felt a sense of warmth and knew he was in good hands. The photos and videos throughout his visit really helped to put our mind at ease that he was having a wonderful time. I would highly recommend Karen.”
“My dog really enjoyed the stay with Jessica and Harrison, I was sad about leaving my dog during my trip, but when Jasper (my dog) arrived to their home I could notice that he was comfortable since the first moment . They sent me pictures and took good care of him. I’ll definitively choose them again. Thanks Jessica and Harrison.”
“Angie and her mom were fantastic! It was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous about boarding Willow, but they made the whole thing super easy. They sent me videos and updates, and Willow did great with them — zero issues at all. She even came home with a nice brush! Really great experience and I’d definitely book with them again.”
“This is the second time we have left our pets with Fei and her family. The two cats are eight years old and we were away for 32 days. Few took frequent pictures of the cats and sent them to us. We looked forward to the anecdotal information Fei shared with us about the cats. The cats were cared for as if they were their own. We are very grateful to Fei and her family.”
“Tatiana is amazing! Finding quality care for a sensitive dog such as mine that can take some time to warm up is challenging but Tatiana was so patient and kind right from the first meeting. In no time at all my boy was snuggling her and settled in right away. She provided great updates and it was obvious he had a ton of fun with her. Our flight was canceled on the way home causing a last minute change to extend an extra night which Tatiana accommodated no problem which was super appreciated. Highly recommended and we will be happy to use her services in the future again!”
