“This was our first multi-day trip away from our pup since moving to Alberta and Cheri was amazing from the beginning. Her communications are always very thorough and photos are adorable. She is extremely knowledgeable and caring and I had no reservations or concerns about having her come for visits/walks while we were away.”
“Alyssa is absolutely amazing with our kitties!! She makes us so comfortable leaving them in her care and updates us thoroughly. We will always choose Alyssa when we travel and we highly recommend you do as well!”
About: Hi there! I’m a stay-at-home mom, which means I’m home full-time and have plenty of time, attention, and love to give your pets. I have over 20 years of experience caring for animals, especially dogs, and I truly believe pets are family and deserve to be treated with the same love and care we would want for our own. I absolutely love spending time with dogs—whether that means going for a walk, playing, exploring a nearby park, or simply relaxing together for some well-deserved cuddles. Cats hold a special place in my heart too, and I’m always happy to give them affection, companionship, and plenty of attention at their own pace. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. My family and I follow safety protocols, and I’m careful to respect each pet’s individual personality, routine, comfort level, and needs. I also have a midsize SUV, making it easy to safely transport your dog for an outing when appropriate. I’m affectionate, patient, easygoing, flexible, and reliable. My goal is for every pet in my care to feel comfortable, loved, safe, and genuinely excited to spend time with me. Whether your dog enjoys an adventurous walk or your cat prefers a cozy cuddle session, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care. I’d love the opportunity to become your pet’s trusted friend and make their time with me feel like a fun, relaxing, and pampered little holiday! Every family and every pet has different needs, so please feel free to reach out with any questions or special instructions. I’m happy to discuss what works best for you and your furry family member. I look forward to meeting you and your beloved fur baby soon! 🐾❤️ I am currently a stay at home mom, so I am available anytime. Weekends are also fully open so I can look after your pets any time you need! Long walks! Play fetch and ball! Lots of hugs and pets! Treats! Car rides! Our backyard is fenced and on a corner lot so an adequate size. I'm also very happy to help with training that you may have started or just help with specifics your pet should continue following. I believe most pets are familiar with their own food/water dishes, but happy to provide this if preferred. Can't wait to look after your furbaby's!
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.
“Nichole made Chewy and Leia’s week with afternoon walks and visits while I was out of town. Thank you Nichole!!!! She is my go to for taking the best care of my kids and always sending me pics. 😊”
“Kristin was such a kind and caring sitter sending me photos, videos and updates of my darling tabby,Toby. Will definitely contact Kristin anytime I need a reliable sitter in the future.”
“Aman has been amazing for the last few months caring for our puppy with drop in visits! Our little guy is still too small to make it through the day, so we were expecting someone to just come let him out and feed him, but Aman TRULY went above and beyond! Not only does she let him outside and feed him, but she took it upon herself to even do a few reps of training with him! Throughout our time with Aman, we have found her to be incredibly friendly, flexible, and professional! Not to mention our pup LOVES her, and looks forward to her visits! I particularly love that she consistently sends me photos and info about him! She is truly a top notch person, and we couldn’t have asked for more from a sitter!!!”
“Kiandra was amazing. She was so friendly and her daily updates were so detailed and she sends tons of photos. 1000% will book her again in the future. She was very reliable and made me feel a lot less stressed out leaving my cats for a few days. Thank you Kiandra!!!!!!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I can remember and have been around all breeds and sizes. I’ve also been around cats. Just looking to help give your pet some extra love and squeeze in some furry cuddles while trying to help you out I work approx 12 days a month an another job and I’m looking for something to fill in the time while I’m home. I’m a huge animal lover so I think this is a perfect fit In my clients home I offer dog walks, feedings, some medical care, brushing and just overall cuddles throughout the time I spend with your pet
“Nicole is the BEST and a total godsend. We have a large, sometimes reactive dog who doesn't love *all* people, but she is absolutely smitten with Nicole. It feels amazing to have someone that we not only trust, but are excited and confident to have watch our fur baby. If I could give her higher than 5/5, I would! 🤍”
About: I’ve had a love of animals since I was a kid and grew up with dogs & cats. We lost our two dogs to old age so would love to extend my home out to caring for your dog while you’re away. I am a stay at home mom so your dog(s) will rarely be alone. I worked at a kennel for two years so have vast experience with all different types of breeds/personalities and have experience administering medications if need be. Your pet will be treated like family in our care. I have open and flexible availability. 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. 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 small children as we have a 2 and 8 year old.
“Katherin was awesome. She was very punctual and communicative throughout the entire booking. She was also able to accommodate a last minute booking, which was very helpful. I will definitely reach out to her again for my pet sitting needs!”
About: I am a kind and caring person who has been living with dogs for three years. I am patient and willing to give love to any dog and make them happy and living healthy. Contact me if you are interested. I am a dog walker and pet sitter, offering dog walks, drop-in visits, and in-home sitting. I do not offer boarding. Since I do not work another job, I am available throughout the day and can fully dedicate my time to the pets in my care. I have hands-on experience caring for my own two dogs — one is 9 years old and the other is 4 years old — so I understand dogs with different energy levels and routines, including senior dogs. For dog walks, I have a spacious SUV (Acura RDX), which allows me to safely transport dogs when needed to nearby parks for longer walks and enrichment. Outdoor activities are always arranged with the owner’s consent, and safety is my top priority. I care for every dog as if they were my own. I always follow the owner’s instructions for walks, feeding, and routines. Safety is my top priority, so dogs stay on leash and are closely supervised. Outdoor activities or transportation are only done with the owner’s consent, and I make sure pets feel comfortable, calm, and well cared for.
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.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Airdrie
This was our first experience with Rover and Daniele made it a lot easier for us. She helped guide us through the process and got back to us with information she had to research as promised. She also was perfect for my dog who has separation anxiety. Great first experience for us.
Maegan was FANTASTIC!! Loved getting updates after each home visit. She made sure my boy was doing well while I was on vacation and that made things so much less stressful. Easy five stars from me :) I would be more than happy to recommend her. Maegan, you rock!
Alicia was great at looking after our two cats, one of which is diabetic so requires set feeding times along with insulin injections and other medication. Alicia had no problem administering the medication and was very accommodating to the feeding times we needed. She was also able to look after other tasks while we were away. Would highly recommend Alicia's services!
Thank you Nichole for your great care of Chewy and Princess Leia again! Nichole shows so much love to my babies each time she visits and walks them. She always takes care to keep in mind any health issues they are having and has been flexible when schedule changes pop-up. She is phenomenal!
Karlee took fantastic care of my pets while I was away for a few days. My rescue cat, Spooky, is usually very afraid and shy around people he doesn't know, so I was very surprised at how quickly he overcame his shyness around Karlee and accepted her within a day of her visits with him! My dog also was comfortable around her from day one, and never hesitated to come to her for some TLC and pets. Karlee obviously has a way with animals, they adore her, and she provided excellent care for my dog and cat. She is very caring and attentive, was excellent with feeding and all the other care needs of my furries. I have complete trust and faith in her strong ability to look after my pets while I am away.

There are 1,939 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Airdrie. About 89% of Airdrie sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:
- Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
- House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
- Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.
Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.
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!
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
