“Another great experience with Andrea! This was our second time for having Andrea take care of our dogs in our home. It was just as smooth and enjoyable as the first. Communication was clear, dogs were well-taken care of and our home was exactly the way we left it when we returned. We know our dogs are in great hands and we don’t have to worry while we are away. We will definitely use Andrea again.”
“Micahl was one of the best sitters we have ever had. The dogs loved him and he treated them so well. He was extremely responsive while we were away and provided updates about how the fur babies were doing. He was such a pleasure to deal with. I absolutely recommend having him support your furry family members!”
“Nichole took amazing care of my pups while house sitting them. I got updates and pictures a couple of times a day. She is very sweet, caring and considerate. I will definitely call Nichole again next time I need my pup-pups watched.”
“Cora was great! Dogs were very relaxed with her. First time having a dog sitter in my house and I think it made a world of difference. Will definitely get Cora again when I need a sitter.”
“We have used Dale and Lauren for dog walking and house sitting, they have a natural way with dogs and do a great job getting your fur baby relaxed in their company. They ask lots of great questions to understand your dogs needs and whether they have any special requirements ie medication etc. We’ve booked them again for our next trip at the end of the year. Highly recommend!”
“Kristen offered amazing care for our pup while we were away for over a week. She came ahead of time to get to know us and was so thorough with getting to know our pet and house. 100% trust and so grateful to have met someone so caring, kind and professional.”
“Tamra looked after our two dogs while we were away and out of town, and continued to take our dogs for daily walks even after our trip got cut short - she's an absolute gem. Our two dogs took a liking to her right away and we would highly recommend Tamra if you're looking for a dogsitter.”
“If I could rate Keyren 100 stars I would. Very impressed with the service. We used her to stay over at our house and to make sure our cat received her daily medication. We were super nervous because we’ve never left her with anyone before but within the first day I was completely at ease. Keyren followed instructions to a T, sent daily updates and let us know each time the medicine was done so we wouldn’t worry. She left our house looking exactly as we had left it. I one million percent will be using Keyren again and my stresses about travelling for long periods of time have vanished. Thank you so much Keyren!”
“Shaelynn was our literal angel for our two fur babies. We couldn’t have asked for anyone more relatable and tolerable of our puppies. We booked Shae last minute and had a whole 4-page information document prepared for her on our two dogs. Not only did Shae enthusiastically sit through our long explanation and walk through of the house, but she also sat the entire time with our clingy Ms Peanut and endured her constant paws of affection. We came back to two puppies who were reluctant to leave Shae. Thank you so much for being the absolute gem that you are Shae! We can’t wait to have you again soon”
“I was so nervous to leave our dog who is extremely shy and skiddish.Stacey was able to make her feel safe and loved and at ease. I am over the moon to have someone my dog trusts look after her. Everything went smoothly and I would leave xanny with Stacey anytime. Highly recommend her and Fred .”
“Yan and Hilary are wonderful people who clearly love animals. We were nervous, leaving our puppy for a full week, and Yan took amazing care of her and our home. Very reliable and trustworthy. She updated us often and went above and beyond to keep our puppy happy and comfortable. Very thankful to have found Yan. Also, our house was SO clean when we got home. We did not expect that at all. Such a treat! We will for sure use her again. Millie loves her. Highly recommend !”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was about 16. I’ve worked for several dog services performing tasks such as: feeding, distributing necessary medication if required, bathing, playing and basic training, monitoring health and behaviour. I also have experience with dog sitting and walking for friends, family, and colleagues. I always ensure that both the owner and their pet feel comfortable, respected and satisfied! I work as an RMT from 2pm-8pm on weekdays, so I’m away for a portion of the afternoon/evening. I’m available in the mornings, overnight and before/after work on Mondays-Thursdays. This allows me to provide flexible, attentive, and reliable care. I’m happy to discuss your pets specific routine before booking to make sure my schedule is a good fit for their needs. I always ensure to take note of any specific instructions from owners regarding their pets needs (ex: post walk pictures with a short message about experience/concerns to provide owners with peace of mind that their pet in in good hands). Along with assurance that your home will be respected and maintained the way it was prior to my arrival.
“Hailey is absolutely amazing, caring, & professional. She took incredible care of our dog Luna in our home while we were away and would book her again in a heartbeat for our next trip. She kept us updated with photos and checked in to let us know how everything was at home with Luna while we were away. Thank you so much for your wonderful care & love for our fur baby.”
“Borys & Purity were great. The dogs loved them and their energy they bring to the sit. They took good care of our dogs, fed them on time and went for a long walk. Chewy & Nova are lap dogs so loved the cuddles. Would definitely recommend to anyone needing their house and dogs taken care of while they are away.”
About: I have been looking after dogs since I was a teenager, and it is something I genuinely enjoy doing, as well as helping as many pets as possible get the care and exercise they need. That is the only reason I signed up on Rover. I have two very loved and well taken care of dogs myself. I am currently working Monday through Friday, 8am-4pm, but I am available for evening walks or play sessions, as well as weekend walks, drop-ins, or dog-sitting. I take the care of your pet very seriously, as if they are my own fur baby. I am aware of dog’s behaviour/body language and will always take that into account during my interactions with your pet. I have experience with feeding, training, giving medications, crating and of course playing with dogs, and their safety and trust is my top priority.
“Mehak was wonderful dogsitter for our 17 year old Heidi! Mehak was great with her, taking her for several walks each day, as well as playing and just chilling with her. She sent us daily updates with photos over the 10 days she took care of Heidi. Mehak was also very respectful of our home, bringing her own food, cleaning up, and leaving the house spotless. Wish she wasn't moving, otherwise we would have zero reservation about using Meehak again!”

Lisa was absolutely amazing with our boy whilst we were on vacation. She has a genuine love for pets and takes care of them as if they’re her own. She asks great questions during the meet and greet to understand your pets needs and likes. She sent us regular updates with little messages and photos which was very much appreciated. We even came back to a lovely clean house. Highly recommend, we will definitely be using her again 👍👍👍
After other theories for our cat fell through, we messaged Robert on shorter notice than anyone would probably recommend! Communication was great and he took it in stride. I wouldn’t consider our cat too high-maintenance, but she is kind of quirky. He worked with her and the regular updates showed they were becoming friends by the time we returned. She clearly did well and we won’t hesitate to book him again for future feline needs. Thank you!
Absolutely amazing sitter! Dale is always on time, treated my dogs like his own, and paid close attention to all their needs. Dale stayed with my two anxious fur babies for several overnights in my home and I swear my house was cleaner than when I left! I loved getting updates every morning and evening—it gave me such peace of mind. Truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Honestly, I almost don’t want to share how great he is because he may get too busy and I will have difficulty booking him in the future. Highly recommend!
Amie was amazing. We used her for in-house pet sitting for an 10-day trip and throughout our time away she kept us updated on daily dog news and happenings around our home. I always worry that my male bulldog is going to be too much but Amie quickly established a bond and within hours he was snuggled next to her on the couch, asking for pets. We will definitely be using her services again and will recommend her to friends and family.
Thank you Chantelle for taking such great care of Billie! You are the kindest, most considerate and capable dog sitter. I was able to go on a holiday and not have to worry about my dog, she had a great holiday with you! Love the great pictures and updates every day, they are amazing! So grateful for all that you do, it is so appreciated!
We booked Kathleen to house and cat sit our 2 cats, a Bengal who is fussy and shy and a Savannah who can be standoff-ish with strangers. After a few days, Kathleen was able to gain our cats trust, sending us updates and pictures along the way. She demonstrated a desire to connect with our pets and it was a relief to know they were in good hands. Our home was also well taken care of and it was left tidy when we arrived home. I would recommend Kathleen for your house and pet sitting needs.
Of course! Here’s the first (more polished) review rewritten with Ollie’s name: ⸻ We’re so grateful for the wonderful care our dog, Ollie, received while we were away! Ollie is full of energy and managed to get into a bit of trouble (including eating an entire bag of treats!), but Stacey handled it all with patience, good humour, and great communication. We came home to a happy dog and couldn’t have asked for better care!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Airdrie on Rover is $48.84 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Airdrie maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Airdrie walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Airdrie choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, identity check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
