“Leigh is a trust worthy cat sitter and seems to have cat whispering magic abilities. My cat Oliver is not a big cuddler, except for Leigh! He's very shy of new people so this tells me she put effort into making a relationship with him. I will book with Leigh first every time.”

About: Growing up, I had a yellow lab named Jazzy who sadly passed away about 5 years ago. I’ve really missed having a dog in my life since, but my apartment doesn’t allow pets—so I’d love the chance to care for yours. I spend a lot of time around dogs like my dad’s golden retriever, Tucker, and our friend’s Bernese mountain dog, Charlie. Whether it’s going for walks, hikes, playing in the snow, or just relaxing, I genuinely love being around them. Anytime my partner and I see a dog, we get just as excited as dogs do when they see a squirrel—it really shows how much we love them. What sets me apart is that I’m not doing this just for the money—I truly enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they’re happy, exercised, and well cared for. I’m reliable, easygoing, and will treat your dog like they’re my own. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I work as an RMT in Port Coquitlam and Coquitlam with a consistent schedule—Monday 10–4, Tuesday & Thursday 2–8, Friday 12–6:30, and Saturday 9–4. This leaves me available most mornings, evenings, Wednesdays, and Sundays, making it easy to fit in walks, check-ins, or overnight sitting. I’m also able to plan my days ahead of time, so I can stay consistent and reliable for your pet’s routine. When caring for pets, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and sticking to their usual routine as closely as possible. Whether I’m walking your dog or staying in your home, I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I’m attentive to each dog’s personality and needs—whether that’s high-energy walks, slower paced outings, or just spending time keeping them company. I always follow any instructions closely (feeding, routines, medications if needed) and keep a clean, respectful environment in your home. You can trust that your dog will be well looked after, treated with care, and given lots of attention while you’re away.

About: I've been around dogs my entire life, even before I can remember! My love for animals started young and has only grown over the years. I've had several dogs of my own and currently share my life with my wonderful 11-year-old dog, who is a beloved member of our family and the gentlest companion anyone could ask for. Throughout my life, I've cared for family members' and friends' dogs, gaining experience with a variety of breeds, personalities, and needs. I also spent several years volunteering with a dog rescue foster program, providing loving care to foster dogs until they found homes. In fact, two of my foster dogs became permanent family members—my own happy "foster fails"! I love spending time outdoors and exploring the beautiful nature that BC has to offer. Whether it's a walk, hike, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I treat every dog in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own pets. Pet owners can count on me to be reliable, compassionate, and attentive. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member and providing them with a safe, happy, and caring experience. 🐾 I am primarily available on Thursdays and Fridays starting around noon, as well as every other Wednesday. I can also be available on weekends with sufficient notice. I'm committed to providing reliable, attentive care and will do my best to accommodate your pet care needs whenever possible! I do normally bring my own pup, as she is very calm and other dogs often enjoy a pack walk. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet's needs and routine. This includes feeding according to the owner's instructions, ensuring fresh water is always available, providing exercise and playtime, administering medications if required, and offering plenty of affection and companionship. I monitor pets for any signs of illness or distress and keep owners updated with messages and photos.

About: Over the passed 16 years, I (Tyra) dedicated myself to providing unwavering care and love for my beloved dog toby. As a responsible and attentive pet owner, I ensured his well-being through regular veterinary check-ups, proper nutrition, exercise, and a nurturing environment. Whenever he faced health challenges in his senior years, I diligently administered prescribed medications to him and always making sure he had whatever he needed to feel the most comfortable. Over time, I gained invaluable experience in giving him medication, mastering techniques to make the process as comfortable and stress-free as possible for my spoiled son. Since his passing life has been very hard and mundane for my boyfriend (Jack) and I. We noticed how empty and unfulfilled our lives are without a furry companion around. We love animals and want to help with dog or cat sitting until we are ready to get a dog again. We love the outdoors, hiking, exploring new places and being active. Jack and i both have very flexible and open schedules. We both love being active, going on hikes and exploring new places in the neighborhood. I dont work Saturday Sunday Mondays. I work Tuesday to Friday with my work being so close I am able to go home on lunch breaks since I'm a 6 min drive away and get an hour lunch to come home and be there for walks or feeding. They will not be alone for more than 4 hours. I live in an apartment. I'm usually very attentive and can always tell what dogs usually want or need. I usually like going for walks to tire them out so they are calm and tired when they come home

She sent a detailed update with many photos each day and it is clear that she genuinely cares for the pets she looks after. This was my first time using Rover and I truly could not have asked for a better experience.”

About: I've lived with dogs almost my entire life. Most importantly, I rescued a 7-year-old Maltipoo, Badoo, from Korea about 2 years ago. Since then, my experience and knowledge of dogs have grown significantly (thanks to Google, YouTube, and ChatGPT). I also enjoy walks and playing with dogs. Cottonwood Park is only a five-minute walk away, and I know several other dog-walking routes. Last but not least, I am semi-retired, so I am very flexible and spend most of my time on Badoo and small house chores. Now, Badoo and I are so ready to be your best friends via Rover! Being semi-retired gives me lots of flexibility, and I spend most of my time at home with Badoo and small daily chores. We’re excited and fully ready to welcome new best friends through Rover! Another strong point of mine as a Rover Sitter is my house — it's 13,530 square feet, with a huge backyard, but just my lovely wife, Badoo, and I live in it. So, your dog will have plenty of opportunities for potty breaks and playtime. I also enjoy walks with the dog. Cottonwood Park is only a five-minute walk away, and I know several other dog-walking routes.

About: I've had animals for my entire life and was brought up with dogs of many sizes and breeds. It brings me great joy to look after animals of any kind, even the ones considered creepy and crawly. My approach is a thoughtful and caring one that aims to observe a dog/cats boundaries and work with them respectfully. I have looked after dogs and cats of all ages and sizes and know how to build a relationship with animals through care, observation, and consistency. I am currently a biology student whose goal is to pursue animal research and nature conservation. This means I will take an extremely thorough approach to caring for your animals and do any necessary research in order to better look after them. It's my passion in this field that helps me understand and work with animals. I am an extremely enthusiastic sitter and take great delight in getting to know animals and spend time with them. Whether cat, dog, or otherwise, I am looking forward to meeting them and giving them the best care possible. My weekly schedule revolves around college, I have 3 classes a week on Tuesdays and Thursdays. There are usually long gaps between classes where I can check in on an animal or walk/feed them and I do not need to be at school all day. From Friday-Monday I have no scheduled commitments and can commit fully to looking after a higher maintenance pet. If you invite me into your home, I will be completely respectful of your animals routine and will do what it takes to keep that up for them. Whether it be walking, cuddles, playtime, baths, or anything else, as long as I have the information then I can do it. I prefer to have a document on hand of your pets needs, either digital or physical, so that I can provide the best care possible. With new animals my first objective is always to pay attention to their needs and communication styles so I can give them whatever they require. Establishing trust always comes first for me, with you and your animal. If you have any questions, needs, or concerns about care, please don't hesitate to bring them up with me. Daily updates through text can also be provided if that is something you would like while away.

About: hello im Niki! Having been surrounded by pets during serveral years I have developed a great love for and compassion with animals. And now, being without my own pet for the first time in my life, I do what fills me with happiness and energy; caring for other’s pets. So I offer you my service. As my references will attest I am exceptionally good at what I do. I am a caring, attentive, responsible, detailed oriented person, committed to developing a trusting, safe, and caring relationship with your pet(s) and you😊. Our pets personalities are as diverse as ours, some high energy needing unleashed play and long walks, or more mature ones seeking leisurely strolls and contemplative siting. Although I’m not a self-proclaimed “trainer” or “whisperer”, I do understand the importance of patience, tone, and consistency in working with animals. And I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your pets. Please feel free to contact. However, please note that I live in a townhouse and dogs are not allowed to go on 2nd floor because I find it very hard to clean the carpet. Otherwise I would love to see them going everywhere around my house, even on my bed! Hope you understand. I would also set up a air bed in the living room sometime—just to sleep with your fluffy child! I’m currently working as a full time. Work 5 days per week on Monday-Friday , 8:00-4:00pm. Available before and after work. But I’m flexible and my partner works from home. So your pets will never fell alone! Feel free to inbox me! I'll ensure that your pets are kept safe, clean, well-fed and healthy even when you’re not around. 📝 I provide live updates with lots of pictures and videos, and a detailed log of meals and excretions so you can rest assured. Feel free to reach out anytime! I look forward to hearing from you soon 😊

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Anmore on Rover is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $31 per visit. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 4,549 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Anmore. About 84% of Anmore 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.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

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 Anmore 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

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.
